Mo Bamba Ruled Out Against Chicago

Orlando Magic center Mo Bamba (hip) will not play Wednesday against the Chicago Bulls. Bamba suffered a hip injury in their last game and was questionable to play here, but does not feel good enough to give it a go. Wendell Carter Jr. should see big minutes against his former team while Robert Franks will […]

Dwight Howard To Miss First Game Of Season

Philadelphia 76ers center Dwight Howard (knee) will not play Wednesday against the Brooklyn Nets. Howard will miss his first game of the season as he sits out with knee soreness. The Sixers will be back to one healthy center on the roster and Joel Embiid should see a ton of minutes. Mike Scott will likely […]

Collin Sexton Ruled Out Against Hornets

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Collin Sexton (groin) has been ruled out Wednesday against the Charlotte Hornets. Sexton will miss his second straight game with the injury, but has an opportunity to return Thursday on the second night of a back-to-back. Darius Garland (ankle) will return Wednesday after a one-game absence and should be back in the […]

Darius Garland Will Play Wednesday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Darius Garland (ankle) will play Wednesday against the Charlotte Hornets. Garland will only miss one game with the injury and will be good for managers to deploy in their season long leagues. Garland's return should push Matthew Dellavedova to the bench and erase his short-term value. If Garland experiences any setbacks, Dellavedova […]

Khem Birch To Start Wednesday

Toronto Raptors forward/center Khem Birch will start Wednesday against the San Antonio Spurs. Head coach Nick Nurse said they would be playing a lot of big lineups, but he doesn't have much of a choice with five guards out for this one. Birch has low-end value when given the opportunity and is coming off a […]

Myles Turner And Doug McDermott Questionable

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (ankle) and forward Doug McDermott (ankle) are both questionable Wednesday against the Houston Rockets. Pacers reporter Scott Agness said he would be surprised if either play, so it seems like they are trending more towards doubtful. If both Turner and McDermott end up sitting again, expect Edmond Sumner to get […]

Aleksej Pokusevski Will Sit Second Straight Game Wednesday

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Aleksej Pokusevski (arm) will not play Wednesday against the Golden State Warriors. Pokusevski is dealing with a sore shooting arm and there have not been any updates on how serious this is. With Luguentz Dort (shoulder) also out among others, Kenrich Williams, Darius Bazley and Isaiah Roby should see more minutes […]

Luguentz Dort To Sit Wednesday Against Warriors

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Luguentz Dort (shoulder) has been ruled out against the Golden State Warriors on Wednesday. Dort is coming off a career-high 42 points and seven three-pointers, but will get the night off on the second day of a back-to-back set due to a shoulder injury. The injury report is listing this as […]

Gorgui Dieng And Trey Lyles Remain Out Wednesday

San Antonio Spurs big men Gorgui Dieng (shoulder) and Trey Lyles (ankle) remain out against the Toronto Raptors on Wednesday. This comes at no surprise as the two have not been given a timetable to return and were on the outskirts of the rotation anyways. Jakob Poeltl and Keldon Johnson will continue to man the […]

Trae Young And Danilo Gallinari Questionable Thursday

Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young (calf) and forward Danilo Gallinari (foot) are both listed as questionable against the Milwaukee Bucks on Thursday. Young is considered to be closer to returning than Gallinari at this point, but both seem to be making strides to getting back to the court. Brandon Goodwin has been solid as […]

Andre Drummond Good To Go Tuesday

Los Angeles Lakers center Andre Drummond (elbow) will play Tuesday against the Charlotte Hornets. Drummond popped up on the injury report with an elbow injury he likely suffered on Monday against the New York Knicks, but it will not cost him any time. The Lakers will likely need Drummond to step up if Markieff Morris […]

Markieff Morris Game-Time Decision Against Charlotte

Los Angeles Lakers forward/center Markieff Morris (ankle) is now a game-time decision Tuesday against the Charlotte Hornets. Morris has been acting as the starting power forward in the absence of Anthony Davis (calf) and is coming off a 17-point outing on Monday. Morris picked up an ankle sprain in the loss after playing 27 minutes […]

Kyle Kuzma, Wesley Matthews And Marc Gasol Available Tuesday

Los Angeles Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma (calf), guard Wesley Matthews (Achilles) and center Marc Gasol (hamstring) will all play Tuesday against the Charlotte Hornets. There was some concern these three would miss Tuesday in the second half of a back-to-back, but all three are available to play. Kuzma is the only fantasy relevant player here […]

Terry Rozier To Sit Against Lakers

Charlotte Hornets guard Terry Rozier (knee) will not play Tuesday against the Los Angeles Lakers. Rozier is a little banged up and was doubtful coming into the contest with Charlotte entering a back-to-back set. Head coach James Borrego said "one of the Martin twins will start". It's unclear whether Cody Martin or Caleb Martin will […]

Trae Young Downgraded To Out Tuesday

Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young (calf) is now out Tuesday against the Toronto Raptors. The Hawks will be heavily under-manned again with seven players out against the Raptors. Brandon Goodwin should get another spot start in the absence of Young and is a decent value play in DFS. Bogdan Bogdanovic is another option as […]

Deandre Bembry Late Scratch With Hamstring

Toronto Raptors guard/forward Deandre Bembry (hamstring) is now out Tuesday against the Atlanta Hawks. The Raptors are extremely thin on the wing now after Bembry was a late scratch due to hamstring tightness. Malachi Flynn, OG Anunoby, Rodney Hood and Gary Trent Jr. should all be busy Tuesday as the remaining healthy wing players. Flynn […]

Trae Young Now A Game-Time Decision Against Raptors

Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young (calf) is a game-time decision Tuesday against the Toronto Raptors. Young missed Sunday's game with a calf injury and was questionable coming into the day. If Young is ruled out again, expect Brandon Goodwin to get another spot start after scoring 17 points and dishing eight assists in 37 […]

Danilo Gallinari Out As Expected Tuesday

Atlanta Hawks forward Danilo Gallinari (foot) will not play Tuesday against the Toronto Raptors. Gallinari was doubtful coming into the contest so this should not come as a shock. With "Gallo" missing his second straight game, Kevin Huerter and Solomon Hill should see an uptick in minutes. Bogdan Bogdanovic went off for 32 points last […]

Kelly Oubre Jr. Unlikely To Play Wednesday

Golden State Warriors forward Kelly Oubre Jr. (wrist) is listed as doubtful ahead of Wednesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. This will likely result in Oubre's third straight game on the sidelines as he deals with a sprained wrist. Kent Bazemore has been earning a starting role and putting up decent numbers. The Warriors […]

Jerami Grant No Longer Listed On Injury Report

Detroit Pistons forward Jerami Grant (knee) is no longer listed on the injury report ahead of Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. Grant had a three-game absence with a knee injury, but appears on track to make his return on Wednesday. One of Cory Joseph, Josh Jackson or Wayne Ellington should return to the […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Questionable After Practicing Fully

Milwaukee Bucks forward/center Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) is listed as questionable to play Wednesday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Antetokounmpo went through a full practice and there is hope he will be able to play in this one, however it is the first game of a back-to-back set so he may miss one or both of these. […]

Lonzo Ball Earns Doubtful Tag Ahead Of Wednesday

New Orleans Pelicans guard Lonzo Ball (hip) is doubtful to play Wednesday against the New York Knicks. Ball has been in and out of the lineup due to a nagging hip injury and there is no timetable for his return with the Pelicans on the outside of the playoff picture. Naji Marshall and Kira Lewis […]

Isaiah Roby Now Available To Play Tuesday

Oklahoma City Thunder forward/center Isaiah Roby (concussion) has been upgraded to be available Tuesday against the Utah Jazz. Roby was originally listed as "out" on the team's injury report, but has been upgraded to be available to play just a few hours before tip-off. Roby has not played since April 3rd due to a concussion […]

Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers - Week 16

We're well in the weeds now as leagues have started getting into their playoff match ups based on your league settings. Now is the time to ditch your late rounder and utilize a streaming spot to squeeze out as much value as possible. Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday all have six or less games on those […]

Tyler Herro Will Play Against Portland

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (foot) is available Sunday against the Portland Trail Blazers. Herro continues to deal with minor foot soreness, but has yet to miss a game due to the injury and will play on Sunday. There is no minutes restriction to report, but if Herro is limited, Goran Dragic and Gabe Vincent […]

Rajon Rondo Available Off The Bench Sunday

Los Angeles Clippers point guard Rajon Rondo (adductor) is available to play off the bench Sunday night against the Detroit Pistons. Rondo missed one game with an adductor injury and was questionable to play Sunday, but should return to a backup point guard role behind Reggie Jackson. With Patrick Beverley (hand) out for the next […]

Serge Ibaka Will Not Join Upcoming Road Trip

Los Angeles Clippers forward/center Serge Ibaka (back) will not join the team during the upcoming road trip starting Tuesday. That's another three games Ibaka will be sidelined as he still deals with a back injury and has no timetable for return. Ivica Zubac will continue to start and may start even when Ibaka comes back. […]

LaMarcus Aldridge Out Monday With Illness

Brooklyn Nets forward/center LaMarcus Aldridge (illness) will sit Monday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Aldridge has been ruled a day in advance yet it is a non-COVID illness and it is not a back-to-back set so it remains to be seen how serious his symptoms are. Aldridge's absence could lead to DeAndre Jordan reentering the rotation. […]

Tobias Harris And Danny Green Not On Injury Report Monday

Philadelphia 76ers forward Tobias Harris (knee) and guard Danny Green (hip) are not listed on the injury report ahead of Monday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. Both Harris and Green sat out Saturday in the second night of a back-to-back with their respective ailments. Given both are removed from the injury report, these absences were […]

Kyle Kuzma, Wesley Matthews, Marc Gasol Questionable Monday

Los Angeles Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma (calf), guard Wesley Matthews (Achilles) and center Marc Gasol (hamstring) are questionable Monday against the New York Knicks. All three missed Saturday's game against the Brooklyn Nets which led to Talen Horton-Tucker to get a spot start and other starters to fill the void. Horton-Tucker has been playing well […]
