Kristaps Porzingis Not Expected To Play Friday

Dallas Mavericks center Kristaps Porzingis (knee) is listed as doubtful for Friday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Head coach Rick Carlisle mentioned that Porzingis is making progress with his knee injury, but it's uncertain when he'll be back in the lineup. In the meantime, Maxi Kleber, Willie Cauley-Stein, and Dwight Powell will be asked to […]

Devonte' Graham Ruled Out Thursday

Charlotte Hornets guard Devonte' Graham (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He was listed as doubtful coming into this game, so this shouldn't come as a shock to anyone. His absence will mean more playing time for LaMelo Ball and Terry Rozier. Both players are possible DFS options, but […]

Gary Trent Jr. Available Versus Wizards

Toronto Raptors guard Gary Trent Jr. (leg) is available for Thursday's game against the Washington Wizards. The Raptors could use Trent with Kyle Lowry (rest) and Yuta Watanabe (ankle) both sidelined. However, there is a good chance that Toronto limits Trent due to his ankle issue. Toronto needs this win to stay in the playoff […]

Killian Hayes Officially Out On Thursday

Detroit Pistons guard Killian Hayes (illness) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. The young guard was questionable throughout the day, but it appears the team is going to take the cautious approach here. Cory Joseph should have plenty of streaming appeal without Hayes available. However, he could be somewhat risky […]

Cory Joseph Probable On Thursday

Detroit Pistons guard Cory Joseph (ankle) is listed as probable for Thursday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. The veteran guard should be back in the mix along with Wayne Ellington (calf) on Thursday. Joseph is normally a useful fantasy option whenever the Pistons are banged up. However, Killian Hayes (illness) is questionable, so Joseph's value […]

Aron Baynes Won't Play Versus Wizards

Toronto Raptors center Aron Baynes (foot) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Washington Wizards. The Raptors are in must-win territory with only a handful of games left in the regular season. Sadly, they will have a bunch of players sidelined for this game. Khem Birch is going to see all the minutes […]

Malcolm Brogdon, Edmond Sumner Ruled Out Thursday

Indiana Pacers guards Malcolm Brogdon (hamstring) and Edmond Sumner (knee) have been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. Brogdon has now missed four games in a row and it's uncertain when he'll get back on the court. Both Sumner and Jeremy Lamb (knee) will join him on the sideline for this one. […]

Grayson Allen Exits Early On Wednesday

Memphis Grizzlies guard Grayson Allen (abdominal) has been ruled out for the rest of Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He was only able to play six minutes before heading to the sideline. Memphis plays again on Thursday, so fantasy managers will have to wait and see. De'Anthony Melton and Desmond Bone would be asked […]

LeBron James Might Play Friday

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. It was previously reported that James would miss Friday's game as well, but that's not the case. Head coach Frank Vogel has not ruled out James for Friday's contest and the team continues to list him […]

Jaylen Brown Could Return Friday

Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown (ankle) could rejoin the team for Friday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He missed Wednesday's contest, but is reportedly day-to-day, so the team is hopeful he'll be ready to play soon. Aaron Nesmith has been knocking down everything from beyond the arc. He'll be a reliable streaming option until Brown […]

OG Anunoby Ruled Out Thursday

Toronto Raptors forward OG Anunoby (calf) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Washington Wizards. This is frustrating for fantasy managers since Anunoby was playing well before the injury. However, it doesn't appear the Raptors have any intentions of letting Anunoby back on the court this season. Stanley Johnson has been getting more […]

Brandon Ingram Sidelined On Friday

New Orleans Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. It is not good news that Ingram is being ruled out this far in advance. Despite that, the team is listing him as day-to-day, which is good news for fantasy managers. The Pelicans only have six games […]

Alec Burks Will Play Versus Nuggets

New York Knicks guard Alec Burks (knee) is available for Wednesday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He tweaked his knee during Monday's contest, but it sounds like he'll be able to play through the pain. Burks won't be a great streaming option since he is continuing to work on his conditioning, so he could be […]

Harrison Barnes Listed As Doubtful For Wednesday

Sacramento Kings forward Harrison Barnes (groin) is listed as doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Indiana Pacers. The veteran forward has been dealing with a lingering groin issue and it looks like he'll miss another game here. The Kings are likely going to be shorthanded here with a handful of players banged up. Marvin Bagley […]

Nikola Vucevic Returns To Practice Wednesday

Chicago Bulls center Nikola Vucevic (hip) was able to fully participate in Wednesday's practice. Head coach Billy Donovan mentioned that Vucevic looked fine during practice, so hopefully he'll be able to suit up on Thursday. He has missed each of the last two games, but the Bulls need this win over the Charlotte Hornets. It's […]

Isaiah Hartenstein Probable On Wednesday

Cleveland Cavaliers center Isaiah Hartenstein (concussion) is listed as probable for Wednesday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He has missed each of the last five games due to a concussion. However, it sounds like he has passed concussion testing and can return on Wednesday. Hartenstein hasn't seen a lot of playing time recently, but […]

Darius Garland Ruled Out Against Blazers

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Darius Garland (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He continues to deal with a sprained ankle that is still swollen, so he could miss another game or two. Cedi Osman and Isaac Okoro have been asked to step up without Garland available. Okoro is coming […]

Jerami Grant Expected To Return On Saturday

Detroit Pistons forward Jerami Grant (knee) plans to return for Saturday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. That means, Grant won't suit up for Thursday's contest, but at least he is returning for the last few games of the season. It's uncertain why the Pistons would even bother bringing him back for meaningless games. Nonetheless, he'll […]

Zach LaVine Intends To Play Thursday

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine said that he intends to play Thursday against the Charlotte Hornets. He has missed 11 straight games while following the NBA's health and safety protocols. The Bulls desperately need LaVine back if they want to make a push at the playoffs. Coby White might want end up being the biggest […]

Jae Crowder Won't Play Against Hawks

Phoenix Suns forward Jae Crowder (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. This marks the eighth game in a row that Crowder has missed with a sprained right ankle. Cameron Johnson and Torrey Craig will be asked to pick up the slack. Craig has been playing well recently and could […]

Jaren Jackson Jr. Resting On Wednesday

Memphis Grizzlies forward Jaren Jackson Jr. (rest) will not suit up for Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. It's the front end of a back-to-back set, so the Grizzlies will take the cautious approach here. It sounds like he'll be available for Thursday's game. In the meantime, Brandon Clarke and Xavier Tillman will see more […]

Tristan Thompson Questionable Against Magic

Boston Celtics center Tristan Thompson (pectoral) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Orlando Magic. He recently moved into the starting five, but that stint could be short lived. His absence would mean an immediate boost for Robert Williams. He'd see all the minutes he can handle at center, which would make him […]

Norman Powell Might Sit Versus Lakers

Toronto Raptors forward Norman Powell (knee) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. He is dealing with right knee patellar tendinopathy, so basically the best thing for Powell is to rest. The Blazers do need to win for seeding purposes, so there is incentive to get him out on the […]

D.J. Augustin Could Miss Wednesday's Game

Houston Rockets guard D.J. Augustin (ankle) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. It wouldn't be surprising to see the Rockets rest the veteran guard here. They aren't playing for much, so they have no incentive to play their veterans throughout the rest of the season. Kevin Porter Jr. has looked […]

Nerlens Noel Might Sit Against Nuggets

New York Knicks center Nerlens Noel (ankle) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He has been banged up lately, but the Knicks could certainly use Noel in this one. The team will likely wait until after shootaround before making a final decision. Taj Gibson could become an interesting streaming choice […]

Malcolm Brogdon, Edmond Sumner Questionable For Wednesday

Indiana Pacers guards Malcolm Brogdon (hamstring) and Edmond Sumner (knee) are listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Brogdon has missed the last two games, so it wouldn't be shocking to see him miss another contest. Sumner suffered an injury on Sunday and it bothered him during Monday's game as well. T.J. […]

Bismack Biyombo Moves Into Starting Five

Charlotte Hornets center Bismack Biyombo will move into the starting five for Tuesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. The Hornets are shorthanded here with P.J. Washington (personal) and Miles Bridges (protocols) ruled out. He should see plenty of minutes, but Cody Zeller will be involved as well. Neither of them are reliable enough options to […]

Devonte' Graham, Cody Martin Ruled Out For Tuesday

Charlotte Hornets guards Devonte' Graham (knee) and Cody Martin (ankle) have been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. It's uncertain why Graham is out after playing 24 minutes on Sunday. Possibly, the Hornets are giving him a rest day against the tanking Pistons. Martin was getting minutes in the 20s, so Malik […]

LeBron James Ruled Out Monday

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He exited with roughly seven minutes left during Sunday's contest. It appears he rushed himself back to the court and will miss at least one game. However, there's a good chance that James sits out on Tuesday […]

Maxi Kleber Could Sit Out Tuesday

Dallas Mavericks forward Maxi Kleber (Achilles) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Miami Heat. This is unfortunate news with Kristaps Porzingis (knee) already listed as doubtful. The Mavs are likely going to ask Dorian Finney-Smith to play a significant role with Willie Cauley-Stein and Dwight Powell getting more involved. Finney-Smith should be […]
