Brandon Clarke Remains Out Versus Hawks
Memphis Grizzlies forward Brandon Clarke (calf) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. He will miss both games of the back-to-back set due to calf soreness. Xavier Tillman, Kyle Anderson, and Jonas Valanciunas will be asked to split up the playing time. Valanciunas has the most upside out of the three, […]
Andy Webb 4 years agoKhem Birch Available Versus Wizards
Orlando Magic forward Khem Birch (illness) is available for Wednesday's game against the Washington Wizards. He has missed each of the last two games due to a non-COVID related illness. However, the arrival of Wendell Carter Jr. has killed any momentum for Birch in Orlando. The team is likely going to stick with the young […]
Andy Webb 4 years agoBlake Griffin Will Rest Versus Knicks
Brooklyn Nets forward Blake Griffin (rest) won't suit up for Monday's game against the New York Knicks. This comes as no surprise since Griffin has not been cleared to play in back-to-back sets. Nicolas Claxton and Jeff Green will see more playing time without Griffin available. However, the arrival of LaMarcus Aldridge has slightly hurt […]
Andy Webb 4 years agoJarrett Allen, Larry Nance Jr. Remain Out Monday
Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen (concussion) and forward Larry Nance Jr. (illness) remain out for Monday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. The team hasn't given much information on their progress, which could be worrisome for fantasy managers. The Cavs aren't exactly competitive, so there is no incentive to rush them back on the court. […]
Andy Webb 4 years agoJohn Wall Doubtful For Monday
Houston Rockets guard John Wall (knee) is listed as doubtful for Monday's game against the Phoenix Suns. It sounds like he'll miss at least one more game, but is targeting a return on Wednesday. In the meantime, Kevin Porter Jr. will continue to benefit and is worth rostering in basically every format. The return of […]
Andy Webb 4 years agoJames Harden Returns On Monday
Brooklyn Nets guard James Harden (hamstring) will return for Monday's game against the New York Knicks. This is good timing with the Nets fairly shorthanded for this contest. Blake Griffin (rest) has already been ruled out alongside with a handful of other players. Harden and Kyrie Irving should see a majority of the workload on […]
Andy Webb 4 years agoDanuel House Jr. Could Miss Monday's Game
Houston Rockets forward Danuel House Jr. (ankle) was forced to exit early during Sunday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. He twisted his ankle while driving to the hoop and limped to the locker room. The team ruled him out quickly after that and it wouldn't be surprising if he missed Monday's game versus the […]
Andy Webb 4 years agoNickeil Alexander-Walker Could Miss Time
New Orleans Pelicans guard Nickeil Alexander-Walker (ankle) was forced to exit early during Sunday's contest versus the Houston Rockets. He fell back into Kevin Porter Jr. and rolled his ankle. The team has not announced the officially injury, but Alexander-Walker struggled to get into the locker room. There is a good chance he misses multiple […]
Andy Webb 4 years agoRui Hachimura Won't Play Monday
Washington Wizards forward Rui Hachimura (shoulder) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He had a questionable tag, but it sounds like Hachimura will miss at least one more game. Head coach Scott Brooks is uncertain when Hachimura will get back on the court. His absence will give a slight boost […]
Andy Webb 4 years agoJaylen Nowell Doubtful For Monday
Minnesota Timberwolves guard Jaylen Nowell (tibia) is listed as doubtful for Monday's game against the Sacramento Kings. It appears he suffered a right tibia contusion on Saturday, so there's a good chance he misses at least one game. His absence would mean more playing time for Jake Layman and Anthony Edwards. Nowell has been getting […]
Andy Webb 4 years agoRicky Rubio Doubtful For Monday
Minnesota Timberwolves guard Ricky Rubio (back) is listed as doubtful for Monday's game against the Sacramento Kings. D'Angelo Russell (knee) will join Rubio with the doubtful tag for this contest. That means, Jordan McLaughlin could be forced to play heavy minutes. He'd make for a favorable DFS option without Rubio or Russell on the court. […]
Andy Webb 4 years agoEric Paschall Out At Least Two Weeks
Golden State Warriors forward Eric Paschall (hip) is going to be sidelined for at least two weeks. He has already been ruled out for Sunday's game, but it appears it'll be longer than just a one game absence. An MRI confirmed a left hip flexor strain, so don't expect him back anytime soon. Juan Toscano-Anderson […]
Andy Webb 4 years agoDe'Andre Hunter Expected To Go Through Live Scrimmage
Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (knee) will go through a live scrimmage before getting cleared to return to the court. Head coach Nate McMillan mentioned that Hunter is feeling more comfortable, but the Hawks are going to be cautious with their young forward. It's highly unlikely that Hunter holds any reliable fantasy value throughout the […]
Andy Webb 4 years agoKira Lewis Jr. Sitting Out Versus Rockets
New Orleans Pelicans guard Kira Lewis Jr. (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Houston Rockets. He'll sit out this game after his best outing of the season on Friday. Regardless, Lewis was going to see less action with Lonzo Ball (hip) returning to the starting five on Friday. Eric Bledsoe and […]
Andy Webb 4 years agoLonzo Ball Returns To The Lineup
New Orleans Pelicans guard Lonzo Ball (hip) will return to the lineup for Sunday's game against the Houston Rockets. He'll return to the starting five following a seven-game absence. It wouldn't be shocking if Ball is limited, but he might be forced to play heavy minutes with the Pelicans shorthanded. Both Zion Williamson (thumb) and […]
Andy Webb 4 years agoZion Williamson Won't Play Sunday
New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (thumb) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Houston Rockets. It sounds like he is dealing with a strained right thumb, so fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day. James Johnson has some intriguing DFS appeal with Williamson sidelined. Lonzo Ball (hip) is returning to the lineup, so […]
Andy Webb 4 years agoJaylen Brown Questionable For Sunday
Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. He exited early during Friday's game due to a knee contusion, but it doesn't sound too serious. However, Aaron Nesmith could become a potential streaming option, assuming Brown sits out. Jayson Tatum would be a favorable DFS choice […]
Andy Webb 4 years agoZach LaVine, Coby White Probable For Sunday
Chicago Bulls guards Zach LaVine (ankle) and Coby White (neck) are listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. LaVine has been battling an ankle issue for a few weeks, but it sounds like he's healthy enough to suit up. Fantasy managers should make sure he's back into their lineups. White played 24 […]
Andy Webb 4 years agoMalcolm Brogdon Misses Second Straight Game
Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon (hip) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. This marks the second game in a row that Brogdon has missed due to a hip issue. Jeremy Lamb (foot) will join Brogdon on the sideline, so this sets up Edmond Sumner for big minutes on Saturday. […]
Andy Webb 4 years agoJoel Embiid Returning On Saturday
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) will start in Saturday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He has not played since mid-March due to a knee issue, so it wouldn't be surprising to see Embiid somewhat limited. That being said, DFS players should be cautious about Embiid here. Season-long managers can go ahead and plug Embiid […]
Andy Webb 4 years agoJordan McLaughlin Starting Versus Sixers
Minnesota Timberwolves guard Jordan McLaughlin will draw the start versus the Philadelphia 76ers on Saturday. Ricky Rubio (back) is unavailable for this contest, which leaves the Wolves shorthanded. McLaughlin should get all the minutes he can handle, but he is not a must-have option after his dud outing last game. He could have some deep […]
Andy Webb 4 years agoJeremy Lamb Downgraded To Out
Indiana Pacers guard Jeremy Lamb (foot) has been downgraded to out for Saturday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. This marks the third game in a row that Lamb has missed with a foot issue. Edmond Sumner and Doug McDermott will gain the most value from the loss of Lamb. However, neither of them are […]
Andy Webb 4 years agoOtto Porter Jr. Out On Saturday
Orlando Magic forward Otto Porter (foot) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Utah Jazz. He is dealing with lingering foot pain, so we'll see if Porter is able to suit up for their next contest. Until then, James Ennis and Dwayne Bacon will see increased playing time. Ennis is the better option […]
Andy Webb 4 years agoJoe Ingles Probable Versus Bulls
Utah Jazz forward Joe Ingles (leg) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He is dealing with minor leg soreness and it sounds like he'll be able to play through the issue. Its the front end of a back-to-back set, which means Mike Conley will likely rest. That is good news […]
Andy Webb 4 years agoHassan Whiteside Likely To Miss Another Game
Sacramento Kings center Hassan Whiteside (knee) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. He has been dealing with a lingering knee issue and missed each of the last four games. His absence would mean more minutes for players like Delon Wright. Chimezie Metu has seen a boost in value without […]
Andy Webb 4 years agoWesley Matthews Might Miss Friday's Game
Los Angeles Lakers guard Wesley Matthews (neck) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He has been playing around 20 minutes per game on the Lakers banged up roster. His absence would mean more minutes for Talen Horton-Tucker, Alex Caruso and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope. None of them are consistent options, but Caldwell-Pope […]
Andy Webb 4 years agoReggie Bullock Might Sit Out Versus Mavs
New York Knicks guard Reggie Bullock (illness) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. He has playing heavy minutes lately, so his absence would leave the Knicks shorthanded. Immanuel Quickley and Alec Burks would be asked to pick up the slack. Neither of them are reliable fantasy options, but could have […]
Andy Webb 4 years agoLonzo Ball Uncertain On Return
New Orleans Pelicans guard Lonzo Ball (hip) mentioned that he is uncertain about when he'll get back on the court. He doesn't want to play through the right hip flexor strain, so he'll wait until he feels comfortable. Despite trade rumors earlier in the season, Ball said that he is happy in New Orleans. He […]
Andy Webb 4 years agoMalik Monk Ruled Out On Friday
Charlotte Hornets guard Malik Monk (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers. This doesn't come as shocking news since head coach James Borrego made it sound like Monk was going to miss additional time. Brad Wanamaker will be asked to step up in the absence of Monk. He has shown […]
Andy Webb 4 years agoWayne Ellington Questionable Versus Wizards
Detroit Pistons guard Wayne Ellington (calf) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Washington Wizards. He was unable to play in Wednesday's game due to right calf soreness. Hamidou Diallo and Frank Jackson will see extended roles, assuming Ellington is forced to miss another game. Fantasy managers cannot trust Diallo or Jackson as […]
