Eric Gordon Not Expected to Play Thursday

Houston Rockets shooting guard Eric Gordon (back) is not expected to play against the San Antonio Spurs on Thursday. Gordon has dealt with back issues since 2011, so it is not surprising the injury has crept up on him again. Gerald Green is expected to slide into Gordon's role if he's sidelined. Luc Mbah a […]

Chris Paul Plans to Play on Thursday

Houston Rockets point guard Chris Paul (groin) plans to play against the San Antonio Spurs on Thursday. He did not play on Tuesday due to a minor groin issue. The Rockets decided to be careful, but Paul downplayed the groin injury himself. There is little reason to believe that Paul would be limited on Thursday, […]

Mason Plumlee Could Be Out 2-4 Weeks

Denver Nuggets forward/center Mason Plumlee (calf) could be out for the next two to four weeks. It's not an official timetable, but it sounds like Plumlee is targeting a return after the All-Star break. Paul Millsap (wrist) is expected to return before that. Trey Lyles is worth owning in the short term while Millsap and […]

Gary Harris is Probable on Thursday

Denver Nuggets guard/forward Gary Harris (ankle) is listed as probable for Thursday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. This is the first time we're hearing about an ankle issue, but it does not sound too serious at the moment. He's fully expected to start on Thursday, but owners should check back just in case before […]

Blake Griffin Will Start on Thursday

Detroit Pistons forward/center Blake Griffin will make his first appearance with the Pistons in Thursday's contest against the Memphis Grizzlies. He'll be joined by Ish Smith, Reggie Bullock, Stanley Johnson and Andre Drummond in the starting five. Head coach Stan Van Gundy wants at least Griffin or Drummond on the floor at all times. That […]

Myles Turner is Questionable for Friday

Indiana Pacers forward/center Myles Turner (knee) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. He's played in three straight contests and was finally getting back to full speed. The injuries continue to pile up for Turner. He's now experienced the following injuries this season; knee, elbow, thigh, calf and concussion. Domantas Sabonis […]

Fred VanVleet Ruled Out Thursday

Toronto Raptors point guard Fred VanVleet (personal) has been ruled out of Thursday's game against the Washington Wizards. VanVleet played 21 minutes on Tuesday after his wife gave birth on Sunday. It's assumed VanVleet is out on Thursday due to family matters. Delon Wright will see increased minutes as the backup guard. Norman Powell is […]

Lance Stephenson is Questionable on Wednesday

Indiana Pacers guard/forward Lance Stephenson (thigh) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's contest against the Memphis Grizzlies. It is not that big of an issue, so if he does sit on Wednesday, it'll likely just be a one-game absence. Bojan Bogdanovic and Cory Joseph would split the majority of the minutes if Stephenson is out. […]

Devin Booker Questionable Against Mavs

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (ribs) is questionable to play against the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday. The X-rays came back negative, but it would not be too surprising if Booker sat out one more game. Marquese Chriss (ankle) is also listed as questionable for this contest. Isaiah Canaan and Dragan Bender would get another chance […]

JaMychal Green is Doubtful Against Pacers

Memphis Grizzlies forward/center JaMychal Green (ankle) is doubtful to play against the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday. It looks like Green will most likely be spending his fifth game in a row on the sidelines. Jarell Martin will see more minutes if Green does not play on Wednesday. Green has not been very good this season, […]

Dillon Brooks is Questionable on Wednesday

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Dillon Brooks (knee) is questionable to play against the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday. He tweaked his knee on Monday, and it would not be surprising if the Grizzlies decide to give him the night off. If Brooks is out, Jarell Martin, Wayne Selden and Kobi Simmons would see increased minutes and usage. […]

Paul Zipser Will Start on Wednesday

Chicago Bulls forward Paul Zipser will draw the start against the Portland Trail Blazers on Wednesday. Lauri Markkanen (personal) has been ruled out, which gives Zipser the rare start. Zipser is not expected to see many minutes on the floor. Nikola Mirotic (leg) is expected to be available, but might not play due to trade […]

Nikola Mirotic Will Be Available on Wednesday

Chicago Bulls forward Nikola Mirotic (leg) said he will be available against the Portland Trail Blazers on Wednesday. The trade rumors continue to heat up surrounding Mirotic. He just wants to play and not deal with the trade talk. He's going to be an extremely risky option right now because of all the trade talk. […]

Alex Len Won't Play Wednesday

Phoenix Suns forward/center Alex Len (ankle) will not play against the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday. Len is dealing with an ankle injury and has missed three of the last four contests. Greg Monroe will head back into the rotation and could see big minutes on Wednesday. Dragan Bender will be mixed in as well, and […]

Shane Larkin Questionable on Wednesday

Boston Celtics point guard Shane Larkin (knee) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's contest against the New York Knicks. His playing status is usually irrelevant, but Marcus Smart (hand) and Kyrie Irving (quadriceps) have been ruled out Wednesday. Terry Rozier will be looking at heavy minutes if Larkin is unavailable as well. Otherwise, the two […]

Kyrie Irving Ruled Out Against Knicks

Boston Celtics guard Kyrie Irving (quadriceps) has been ruled out of Wednesday's game against the New York Knicks. He'll join Marcus Smart (hand) on the sidelines, which could mean heavy minutes for Terry Rozier. The absence of Irving will make Rozier a favorable target in DFS. Al Horford, Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum will see […]

Aaron Gordon is Questionable on Wednesday

Orlando Magic forward Aaron Gordon (hip) is questionable to play against the Los Angeles Lakers on Wednesday. He did not play on Tuesday versus the Houston Rockets, and it sounds like he'll likely be on the sidelines for one more game. Mario Hezonja started for Gordon and scored 17 points in 25 minutes. He's a […]

J.J. Redick Will Start on Wednesday

Philadelphia 76ers shooting guard J.J. Redick (leg) will return to the starting lineup against the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday. Redick will likely be dealing with a minutes limit his first game back from a seven-game absence. He's not going to be a great target in DFS on Wednesday. Timothe Luwawu will move to the second unit […]

Jerryd Bayless is Available Wednesday

Philadelphia 76ers guard Jerryd Bayless (wrist) is available to play against the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday. It sounds like Bayless will be returning from a six-game absence, but he won't have much fantasy impact. J.J. Redick (leg) is also expected to play on Wednesday. The return of Redick will take away most of the value […]

J.J. Barea Questionable on Wednesday

Dallas Mavericks guard J.J. Barea (oblique) is questionable to play against the Phoenix Suns on Wednesday. He's spent the last two games on the sidelines but could return Wednesday. He's really only an option in deeper leagues, but usually isn't much of an asset in fantasy. Dennis Smith Jr. , Yogi Ferrell and Devin Harris will […]

Frank Kaminsky Will Start Wednesday

Charlotte Hornets forward/center Frank Kaminsky will start against the Atlanta Hawks on Wednesday. Marvin Williams (ankle) has been ruled out of this contest. Kaminsky has been disappointing in his last three contests, but was on fire prior to that. He'll likely see at least 30 minutes on the floor Wednesday, but his value depends on […]

Evan Fournier Expects to Play Tuesday

Orlando Magic guard/forward Evan Fournier (ankle) is expected to play against the Houston Rockets on Tuesday. He practiced fully on Monday after rolling his ankle in Saturday's game. He was able to finish the game, so the injury does not sound too serious. Fournier should be ready to go on Tuesday, but official confirmation will […]

Garrett Temple is Probable on Tuesday

Sacramento Kings guard/forward Garrett Temple (ankle) is probable for Tuesday's contest against the New Orleans Pelicans. He did not play on Sunday against the Spurs, but is on track to return on Tuesday. Temple's return will mean less minutes for guys like Buddy Hield, Bogdan Bogdanovic and George Hill. It's become difficult to trust anyone […]

Rondae Hollis-Jefferson Won't Play Against Knicks

Brooklyn Nets forward Rondae Hollis-Jefferson (groin) will not play against the New York Knicks on Tuesday. Both RHJ and Caris LeVert (groin) will be sidelined for the second straight contest. Head coach Kenny Atkinson expects RHJ to miss a few more games. DeMarre Carroll will see an extended opportunity on Tuesday. Quincy Acy could be […]

Caris LeVert Won't Play Tuesday

Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Caris LeVert (groin) will not play against the New York Knicks on Tuesday. Head coach Kenny Atkinson was being cautious and held LeVert out of Saturday's game versus Minnesota. He does not believe it's anything serious, but LeVert will spend at least one more game on the sidelines. Nik Stauskas played 33 […]

Danilo Gallinari Will Play Tuesday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Danilo Gallinari (gluteus) will play Tuesday against the Portland Trail Blazers. He's been targeting this return date for quite some time, and he will be available for the first time this month. Head coach Doc Rivers would like to ease Gallinari back into things since he's only played 11 games this […]

Enes Kanter Probable on Tuesday

New York Knicks center Enes Kanter (lip) is probable for Tuesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He cut his lip at practice on Monday but is still expected to play on Tuesday. The cut required seven stitches to close, but this injury isn't expected to keep him out of the rotation. Owners should check back […]

Marvin Williams Ruled Out Wednesday

Charlotte Hornets forward Marvin Williams (ankle) has been ruled out of Wednesday's contest against the Atlanta Hawks. He left Monday's game against Indiana late in the fourth quarter and was unable to return. The X-rays came back negative, but Williams does have an ankle sprain. Frank Kaminsky will likely move into the starting five on […]

Skal Labissiere Ruled Out Tuesday

Sacramento Kings forward/center Skal Labissiere (shoulder) has been ruled out of Tuesday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. This will mark the second straight game that he's missed due to a shoulder issue. It is a shame because Labissiere was beginning to heat up from the floor, too. Veterans Zach Randolph and Kosta Koufos will […]

Kevon Looney Ruled Out Tuesday

Golden State Warriors forward/center Kevon Looney (illness) will not play against the Utah Jazz on Tuesday. Both Looney and Jordan Bell (ankle) are ruled out, but that could mean a significant role for JaVale McGee. However, Looney was only playing minutes in the teens, so McGee is not going to have a career night. He […]
