What It Means:

It sounds like things are headed in the right direction, but all three are still expected to be game-time decisions. Rodney Hood (illness) is also questionable, so Gordon Hayward could be a strong play on Monday night, depending on how things turn out.

For now, numberFire's models expect Diaw to sit, while we have Favors, Hill and Hood all playing. Favors is the preferred option for FanDuel purposes, as we project the big man to put up 16.2 points, 7.9 rebounds, 1.7 blocks and 1.1 steals versus Memphis. He owns a 0.1 nERD through 10 games this season.
