Eric Gordon - G - Clippers

Eric Gordon says his wrist is feeling better, but not well enough to play on Wednesday.
Fantasy owners are jonesing for a target date for his return, but we still don't know anything other than he's all been but ruled out for Wednesday night against the Sixers. Hopefully we'll get more information in the next 24 hours. Cut him if you must, but it still feels like he's nearing a return. Mar. 15 - 7:46 p.m. ET

Josh Howard - G/F - Wizards

Josh Howard (knee) did not play in Tuesday's game against the Bulls.
He lasted just 11 minutes in Monday's game, and it's questionable whether or not he will be able to handle even a minimum workload. Needless to say, he can't be relied upon in fantasy leagues. With the number of knee injuries in Washington, Jordan Crawford is a player that should be stashed in many cases. Mar. 15 - 8:19 p.m. ET

Nick Young - G/F - Wizards

Nick Young did not play on Tuesday due to his lingering knee injury.
He has dealt with the knee for the large majority of the year, and like any player in the midst of a breakout season, he didn't want to stop. He may be paying the piper now for that, and we have him identified as a medium-to-high risk shutdown candidate as a result. Mar. 15 - 8:15 p.m. ET
