Fantasy Impact: It would be a bit of a surprise if Davis sits, but it is worth noting he is questionable and LeBron James is probable. Rui Hachimura and Jaxson Hayes would take on bigger roles if Davis is sidelined.

Fantasy Impact: Payton will be sidelined on Tuesday, and he'll miss the next game if the Warriors beat the Kings. Chris Paul and Brandon Podziemski should take on slightly bigger roles in his absence.

Grayson Allen has agreed to a four-year, near $70 million contract extension through the 2027-28 season with the Suns. (Source: Shams Charania on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact: Allen broke out in his first year in Phoenix, averaging over 13 points per game on 50 percent shooting from the field an 46 percent from deep. He should hold a key role if the Suns are to make a run in the playoffs.

Amir Coffey scored 18 points (7-17 FG, 0-7 3PT, 4-4 FT) to go along with three rebounds, two assists, one steal and one block in the Clippers 116-105 loss against the Rockets.

Fantasy Impact: Coffey played 36 minutes in a start to close the regular season. He made 13 starts this year for the Clippers. He doesn't figure to hold a huge role in the playoffs if the front court is healthy.

Terance Mann scored 24 points (10-14 FG, 1-3 3PT, 3-3 FT) to go along with six rebounds, two assists and one steal in the Clippers 116-105 loss against the Rockets.

Fantasy Impact: Mann played 28 minutes in the regular season finale, leading both teams in scoring. He has not had many huge games this season, but he'll look to hold a complimentary role in the playoffs.

Amen Thompson scored 18 points (8-9 FG, 2-3 FT) to go along with 11 rebounds, 10 assists, three steals and three blocks in the Rockets 116-105 win over the Clippers.

Fantasy Impact: Thompson closes his rookie season with a full stat line. He'll look to take another step forward next year.

Jabari Smith Jr. scored 15 points (6-19 FG, 2-10 3PT, 1-2 FT) to go along with eight rebounds and three assists in the Rockets 116-105 win over the Clippers.

Fantasy Impact: Smith ends a fairly inconsistent season with a poor shooting performance from the field. There was some who thought the injury to Alperen Sengun could help Smith, but his production did not take a huge step forward. He should hold similar value heading into next season.

Sandro Mamukelashvili scored 18 points (7-13 FG, 3-6 3PT, 1-2 FT) to go along with eight rebounds and one assist in the Spurs 123-95 win over the Pistons.

Zach Collins scored 17 points (6-11 FG, 1-2 3PT, 4-4 FT) to go along with nine rebounds, two assists and one steal in the Spurs 123-95 win over the Pistons.

Fantasy Impact: Collins played just 19 minutes in the season finale. After playing a big role early in the year, he saw his role slowly take a step back. He'll likely remain in a similar role next year.

Marcus Sasser scored 17 points (6-13 FG, 2-4 3PT, 3-3 FT) to go along with three rebounds, seven assists and one block in the Pistons 123-95 loss against the Spurs.

Fantasy Impact: Sasser drew another start to close the season with Cade Cunningham sidelined. He ends his rookie season averaging eight points over 71 games with 11 starts. He'll likely remain in a reserve role next season.

James Wiseman scored 21 points (8-17 FG, 5-7 FT) to go along with 17 rebounds, one assist, two steals and one block in the Pistons 123-95 loss against the Spurs.

Fantasy Impact: Wiseman got another start to close the regular season with Jalen Duren sidelined. He was able to show some flashes this year with Detroit in spot starts, but he'll likely remain off the fantasy radar next year.

Rudy Gobert scored 21 points (7-9 FG, 7-9 FT) to go along with seven rebounds, one assist, two steals and one block in the Wolves 125-106 loss against the Suns.

Fantasy Impact: Gobert ends the regular season with back-to-back games scoring over 20 points. He'll look to keep it up in the first-round of the playoffs against Phoenix.

Mike Conley scored 17 points (5-7 FG, 4-5 3PT, 3-3 FT) to go along with four rebounds, two assists, one steal and two blocks in the Wolves 125-106 loss against the Suns.

Fantasy Impact: Conley will carry some momentum into the playoffs with four straight double digit scoring performances to end the regular season. It will be Minnesota taking on Phoenix again in the opening round.

Devin Booker scored 23 points (6-16 FG, 3-8 3PT, 8-10 FT) to go along with four rebounds, seven assists and one steal in the Suns 125-106 win over Minnesota.

Bradley Beal scored 36 points (14-21 FG, 6-6 3PT, 2-2 FT) to go along with six rebounds, five assists, two steals and one block in the Suns 125-106 win over Minnesota.

Tyrese Maxey scored 26 points (10-20 FG, 3-7 3PT, 3-4 FT) to go along with three rebounds, three assists and one steal in the 76ers 107-86 win over the Nets.

Fantasy Impact: Maxey ends his regular season averaging just under 26 points per game in a career season for him. He stepped up in a big way when Joel Embiid missed time. He and Embiid lead the 76ers into a game against the Heat for the No. 7 seed in the Play-in Tournament.

Tobias Harris scored 21 points (8-15 FG, 3-6 3PT, 2-2 FT) to go along with eight rebounds, two assists, one steal and one block in the 76ers 107-86 win over the Nets.

Fantasy Impact: Harris had an inconsistent regular season, but still averaged over 17 points on 49 percent shooting from the field on the year. Philly takes on Miami in the Play-in Tournament for the No. 7 seed in the East.

Cam Thomas scored 18 points (5-12 FG, 3-7 3PT, 5-6 FT) to go along with three rebounds and two assists in the Nets 107-86 loss against the 76ers.
