Derrick Rose Upgraded to Questionable

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Derrick Rose (ankle) has been upgraded to questionable for Friday's game against the Orlando Magic. Rose was listed as doubtful on Thursday, but it appears that his ankle is feeling better. He's missed three straight games, but has a decent chance of returning on Friday. Fantasy owners will need to check back […]

Kyle Kuzma is Questionable Against Knicks

Los Angeles Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma (back) is questionable for Friday's game against the New York Knicks. Kuzma was not able to participate in shootaround, but that does not guarantee he's sitting out on Friday. He injured his back on Wednesday, but the MRI revealed only a contusion. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Josh Hart would see […]

Jonathon Simmons Practices on Thursday

Orlando Magic guard/forward Jonathon Simmons (ankle) was able to practice on Thursday. He was not able to suit up for Wednesday's game against the Chicago Bulls due to a left ankle issue. The Magic play on Friday, so hopefully Simmons can get out there for that one. He should be considered questionable for that one, […]

Rudy Gay Upgraded to Probable

San Antonio Spurs forward Rudy Gay (wrist) has been upgraded to probable for Friday's game against the Toronto Raptors. It sounded like Gay was closer to doubtful before shootaround, but something has changed. Gay appears to be back on track to play on Friday after looking good during shootaround. Fantasy owners should still check back […]

Kyle Kuzma is Questionable for Friday

Los Angeles Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma (back) will have an MRI on his back on Thursday. He left Wednesday's game due to bruised lower back and was unable to return. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope played in Kuzma's place, so expect KCP to benefit if Kuzma is unable to take the court on Friday. Josh Hart should also […]

Derrick Jones Has Earned Increased Playing Time

Miami Heat forward Derrick Jones has reportedly leapfrogged Wayne Ellington in the rotation, according to head coach Erik Spoelstra. "He's making me play him. With his minutes, it's tough to take him out," said Spoelstra. However, Dion Waiters is back, so that's just going to make more crowded in the Miami backcourt. Jones is worth […]

Doug McDermott is Available for Friday

Indiana Pacers forward Doug McDermott (ankle) has been removed from the injury report and will be available for Friday's game against the Chicago Bulls. McDermott tweaked his ankle during Monday's contest. He sat out of practice on Wednesday, but it appears he'll play fine for Friday's game. However, McDermott doesn't bring much to the table […]

Myles Turner is Questionable Against Bulls

Indiana Pacers forward/center Myles Turner (nose) was a full participant in Thursday's practice and is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Chicago Bulls. Turner has a broken nose, but it does sound like he can play through it without any issues. Fantasy owners will need to check back on Friday for another update.

Marvin Bagley is Doubtful for Thursday

Sacramento Kings forward/center Marvin Bagley (knee) is listed as doubtful for Thursday's game against the Denver Nuggets. Bagley did say on Wednesday that his knee was pain-free, so that's a good sign. Most likely Bagley would be on a minutes limit if he did return on Thursday. He should be out there on the court […]

Rudy Gay is Questionable on Thursday

San Antonio Spurs forward Rudy Gay (wrist) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Toronto Raptors. However, head coach Gregg Popovich made it sound like on Wednesday that Gay wouldn't be able to play in this contest. Davis Bertans and Jakob Poeltl would see more playing time without Gay on the court. Bertans […]

Markieff Morris Could Be Out Until March

Washington Wizards forward Markieff Morris (neck) has been diagnosed with transient cervical neurapraxia and will be limited to non-contact work the next six weeks. Morris won't be able to resume contact work in practice until after the All-Star break. It's looking like Morris could be sidelined until March. Thomas Bryant is playing minutes in the […]

Kyle Lowry Upgraded to Questionable on Thursday

Toronto Raptors guard Kyle Lowry (back) has been upgraded to questionable for Thursday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Lowry was listed as doubtful on Wednesday, but will test his back at shootaround and possibly play on Thursday. Fred Vanvleet would draw another start and be an attractive DFS option if Lowry is unable to […]

Kyle Lowry is Doubtful for Thursday

Toronto Raptors guard Kyle Lowry (back) is listed as doubtful for Thursday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Lowry was given an injection for his lower back last weekend and he's responded well, according to head coach Nick Nurse. Fred Vanvleet will continue to draw starts in the absence of Lowry. He'll be a popular […]

Rodney Hood Listed as Questionable on Wednesday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Rodney Hood (Achilles) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Miami Heat. Hood has been sidelined each of the last four games due to a sore Achilles. Alec Burks and Jordan Clarkson would see more playing time if Hood is out again on Wednesday.

Ante Zizic Ruled Out on Wednesday

Cleveland Cavaliers center Ante Zizic (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Miami Heat. This will be the third straight game that Zizic has missed due to right knee soreness. Tristan Thompson (knee) is expected to be ready for Wednesday's contest, so Zizic won't have an impact in the Cavs rotation anymore […]

Anthony Davis is Probable for Wednesday

New Orleans Pelicans forward/center Anthony Davis (illness) is listed as probable for Wednesday's game. Davis missed Monday's game versus the Wolves, but it appears Davis will only miss one game. Jahlil Okafor will head back to the bench and become irrelevant in fantasy hoops once again.

Tristan Thompson is Questionable for Wednesday

Cleveland Cavaliers center Tristan Thompson (foot) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Miami Heat. Thompson is questionable, but said after shootaround that he'd be ready. He hasn't played in three weeks, so expect Thompson to be limited if he suits up on Wednesday. Larry Nance and Channing Frye will lose playing time […]

James Johnson Will Play Against Cavs

Miami Heat forward James Johnson (illness) will be available for Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Johnson will be back in the rotation following a one-game absence. Derrick Jones will lose playing time with Johnson back on the court. Johnson isn't worth adding in most formats right now, but fantasy owners should keep him on […]

Dwyane Wade is Questionable for Wednesday

Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade (illness) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He did not attend shootaround due to an illness, but that doesn't mean that Wade is going to sit out. Josh Richardson and Tyler Johnson would see heavy minutes without Wade in the rotation. Fantasy owners will need […]

Jeremy Lamb Won't Play on Wednesday

Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Jeremy Lamb (hamstring) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. He was listed as doubtful earlier in the week, so not surprising to see him sitting this one out. Devonte' Graham is in line to get the start, so he could be someone worth looking at in DFS […]

Otto Porter Will Play on Wednesday

Washington Wizards forward Otto Porter (knee) will play in Wednesday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. Porter has missed the last three weeks due to a right knee issue. Fantasy owners should expect Porter to be on a minutes limit for this one. Jeff Green is expected to lose some playing time with Porter returning.

John Collins is Available on Wednesday

Atlanta Hawks forward/center John Collins (illness) is available for Wednesday's game against the Washington Wizards. Collins has been dealing with flu-like symptoms, but that won't be enough to force him to the sideline. Fantasy owners can plug in Collins for this favorable matchup versus Washington.

Dewayne Dedmon is Probable on Wednesday

Atlanta Hawks center Dewayne Dedmon (knee) is listed as probable for Wednesday's game against the Washington Wizards. Dedmon has missed the last two games due to a left knee issue, but is on track to return on Wednesday. Alex Len has been starting for Dedmon, but he'll return to the bench for this one.

Robert Covington Won't Play on Wednesday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Robert Covington (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Boston Celtics. Covington is dealing with a sore right ankle, so he's not expected to miss a bunch of time. Both Josh Okogie and Dario Saric are going to see increased playing time. Saric offers more upside than Okogie, so […]

Derrick Rose Won't Suit Up on Wednesday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Derrick Rose (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Boston Celtics. This will be the third straight game that Rose has missed due to an ankle issue. Given Rose's history with injuries it's not surprising to see the Wolves being cautious with Rose. Jeff Teague (ankle) will join Rose […]

Jeff Teague Ruled Out on Wednesday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Jeff Teague (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Boston Celtics. Teague was limited in shootaround and the Wolves have been cautious with him lately. Tyus Jones will draw another start and will be a popular DFS option once again. Josh Okogie should see increased playing time on Wednesday […]

Kyrie Irving Ruled Out on Wednesday

Boston Celtics guard Kyrie Irving (eye) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Irving is currently dealing with a right eye issue, so he can be considered questionable for Friday's game against the Mavericks. Terry Rozier should be in the starting five, while Marcus Smart will see increased playing time as […]

D.J. Augustin Should Be Ready for Wednesday's Contest

Orlando Magic guard D.J. Augustin (ankle) is expected to be ready for Wednesday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He missed Monday's contest, but was a full participant during Wednesday's shootaround. Jerian Grant will return to the second unit, but see increased playing time due to Jonathon Simmons (ankle) sitting out on Wednesday.

Nikola Vucevic Expects to Play on Wednesday

Orlando Magic center Nikola Vucevic (calf) is expected to play in Wednesday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He left Monday's game after suffering a left calf injury and did not return to the game. However, Vucevic was a full participant in shootaround and isn't listed on the injury report. Fantasy owners shouldn't have anything to […]

Jonathon Simmons Ruled Out on Wednesday

Orlando Magic guard/forward Jonathon Simmons (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Chicago Bulls. This will be the second straight game that Simmons has missed due to a left ankle issue. Jerian Grant will see increased playing time once again against the Bulls.
