Rajon Rondo Coming Off The Bench In Debut

Los Angeles Clippers point guard Rajon Rondo (adductor) will come off the bench and have a minutes restriction on Sunday against the Los Angeles Lakers. This makes sense given Rondo has been out with a strained adductor and could easily reaggravate the injury. The Clippers have spoke highly about Rondo given his basketball I.Q. and […]

Coby White Out Due To League Protocols

Chicago Bulls guard Coby White (health and safety protocols) will not play Sunday against the Brooklyn Nets. White was listed as probable with his sore neck, but has entered the league's health and safety protocols and will not play. It is unclear how long White will be in the protocols as there are no indication […]

Joel Embiid Will Sit Sunday After Returning From Injury

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee, rest) will not play Sunday against the Memphis Grizzlies. Embiid returned to the court Saturday after a lengthy absence due to a knee injury and the Sixers are playing it safe by giving him Sunday off. While Embiid was out, Mike Scott has started as a small-ball five while […]

Danilo Gallinari And Trae Young Good To Go Sunday

Atlanta Hawks forward Danilo Gallinari (Achilles) and guard Trae Young (knee) will both play Sunday against the Golden State Warriors. Both players missed their last game, but it was a maintenance day on the second half of a back-to-back. Gallinari's return should limit the already low fantasy value of Tony Snell and Solomon Hill. Young's […]

Andre Drummond Out Again On Easter

Los Angeles Lakers center Andre Drummond (toe) will miss his second straight game Sunday against the Los Angeles Clippers. Drummond is dealing with a toe contusion and torn toenail after leaving his Laker debut last week, but appears to be making strides toward an eventual return. Drummond's absence will likely result in Marc Gasol starting […]

Jeremy Lamb And Domantas Sabonis Game-Time Decisions Friday

Indiana Pacers guard/forward Jeremy Lamb (toe) and forward/center Domantas Sabonis (thigh) are both game-time decisions against the Charlotte Hornets Friday. Lamb missed the last game with the injury, but has progressed to 1-on-1 in practice so he may be on the side of doubtful. Sabonis picked up a thigh injury on Wednesday, but was able […]

Khem Birch May Sit On Saturday

Orlando Magic forward/center Khem Birch (illness) is questionable Saturday against the Utah Jazz. Birch only lasted five minutes on Thursday before leaving with a non-COVID illness. It is unclear what symptoms he is experiencing, but they were enough for Birch to leave the game. Wendell Carter Jr. took over and produced 21 points and 11 […]

Ricky Rubio May Miss Friday

Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Ricky Rubio (back) is now questionable to play against the Memphis Grizzlies Friday. Rubio is being listed with back spasms which he likely experienced during his pregame routine. If Rubio ends up being forced to sit, the Timberwolves will likely turn to Jordan McLaughlin as the starter. Jaylen Nowell and Josh […]

John Wall Will Sit Again Against Boston

Houston Rockets point guard John Wall (knee) has been ruled out after being questionable to play Friday against the Boston Celtics. Wall has been dealing with knee soreness and there is a very real possibility he opts for surgery to end his season. For now, Wall will likely be considered questionable to play in the […]

Larry Nance Jr. And Jarrett Allen Out Saturday

Cleveland Cavaliers centers Larry Nance Jr. (illness) and Jarrett Allen (concussion) have both been ruled out Saturday against the Miami Heat. Both centers do not have timetables for return as they deal with their respective ailments. Dean Wade and Kevin Love should continue to start while Isaiah Hartenstein gets good minutes off the bench. Love […]

Joel Embiid Officially Questionable Saturday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) is questionable to play Saturday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. This weekend was the targeted return date for Embiid who has been out the past few weeks with a bone bruise in his knee. The Sixers play on both Saturday and Sunday so the hope is Embiid plays in at […]

Trae Young, Danilo Gallinari Resting Friday

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (knee) and forward Danilo Gallinari (ankle) are both out Friday against the New Orleans Pelicans. The Hawks are on the second half of a back-to-back and head coach Nate McMillan said he was going to sit some players due to rest. Young, however, did say his knee buckled twice on […]

RJ Barrett May Sit Against Mavericks

New York Knicks guard/forward RJ Barrett (ankle) is questionable to play against the Dallas Mavericks on Friday. Barrett is being listed with a sprained ankle which can vary in terms of severity. Regardless, it is something to monitor and could force Barrett to miss his first game of the season. If Barrett sits, Alec Burks, […]

Ty Jerome Now Questionable To Play Friday

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Ty Jerome (ankle) has been upgraded to questionable on Friday against the Phoenix Suns. Jerome was originally listed as "out" on the injury report, but there is now a chance he plays given the questionable tag. Jerome, if cleared, would resume his bench role, backing up guard Theo Maledon. Jerome has […]

Stephen Curry Ruled Out Friday Against Raptors

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (tailbone) ruled out Friday against the Toronto Raptors. Curry took another fall on his tailbone on Thursday against the Miami Heat and was a little limited afterwards. The Warriors are most likely being cautious with their star, but it is a little concerning if he reinjured his tailbone which […]

Khem Birch Leaves Thursday With Illness

Orlando Magic forward/center Khem Birch (illness) will not return Thursday against the New Orleans Pelicans after leaving with an undisclosed illness. It's unclear what symptoms Birch was experiencing, but it was enough to force him from the contest early in the second quarter. Wendell Carter Jr. and Mo Bamba should benefit if Birch is forced […]

Zach LaVine And Coby White Questionable Friday

Chicago Bulls guards Zach LaVine (ankle) and Coby White (neck) are questionable to play Friday against the Utah Jazz. Both LaVine and White have both missed games with their respective ailments, but may have a chance to return to the court on Friday. Tomas Satoransky, Denzel Valentine and Thaddeus Young all benefited from the absences […]

Aleksej Pokusevski Removed From Injury Report

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Aleksej Pokusevski (health and safety protocols) is no longer listed on the injury report and could play Friday against the Phoenix Suns. Pokusevski entered the league's protocols and missed Wednesday's game, but is no longer listed on the injury report and likely did not contract the virus. Pokusevski's return will likely […]

Andre Drummond Ruled Out Friday

Los Angeles Lakers center Andre Drummond (toe) will not play Friday against the Sacramento Kings. Drummond made his Laker debut on Wednesday, only to play 14 minutes and suffer a toe contusion after not playing since early February. It appears Drummond missed a major injury, but it could be a couple-game absence after fantasy managers […]

John Wall Ruled Out Against Brooklyn

Houston Rockets point guard John Wall (knee) will miss Wednesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. Wall was questionable with his knee injury, but this is not a back-to-back set so it is a little worrisome. There is always the chance Wall undergoes a procedure on his knee to end his season, but that is more […]

Zion Williamson, Lonzo Ball Both Questionable Thursday

New Orleans Pelicans forward/center Zion Williamson (thumb) and guard Lonzo Ball (hip) are questionable to play Thursday against the Orlando Magic. Ball has been dealing with a hip flexor over the past week and should be nearing a return any day now. Williamson, on the other hand, picked up a sprained thumb in their last […]

Jeremy Lamb Out, Doug McDermott In Wednesday

Indiana Pacers guard/forward Jeremy Lamb (toe) is out, but guard/forward Doug McDermott (ankle) will play Wednesday against the Miami Heat. Lamb was getting over some knee soreness only to suffer a sprained toe which will sideline him against the Heat. McDermott, on the other hand, seems to have gotten over a swollen ankle and will […]

John Collins Will Miss Thursday With Ankle Sprain

Atlanta Hawks forward/center John Collins (ankle) will not play Thursday when the Hawks face the San Antonio Spurs. Collins landed on his teammate's foot on Tuesday and appeared to badly twist his ankle so this makes sense. It remains to be seen if Collins will miss extended time, but Danilo Gallinari should be the biggest […]

Bradley Beal Questionable Against Pistons

Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal (hip) is questionable to play Thursday against the Detroit Pistons. Beal has missed the past two games after taking a hard fall and experiencing hip soreness over the past few days. If Beal misses again, Russell Westbrook will likely continue his tear on the box score while Jerome Robinson should […]

Jarrett Allen And Larry Nance Jr. Remain Out Thursday

Cleveland Cavaliers centers Jarrett Allen (concussion) and Larry Nance Jr. (illness) will sit Thursday against the Philadelphia 76ers. Allen remains in the league's concussion protocols while Nance is still dealing with a non-COVID related illness. Dean Wade and Isaiah Hartenstein will likely both start again on Thursday and Hartenstein in particular looked very good in […]

Jaylen Brown Available To Play Wednesday

Boston Celtics guard/forward Jaylen Brown (hip) is available to play Wednesday against the Dallas Mavericks. Brown is returning from a one-game absence due to a sore hip, but should resume his normal starting role. This will be the first time Brown plays with newly acquired Evan Fournier so it will be interesting to see how […]

Victor Oladipo Expected To Debut Thursday

Miami Heat guard Victor Oladipo (illness) is out Wednesday against the Indiana Pacers, but is expected to play Thursday against the Golden State Warriors. Oladipo has been cleared to play and has been working out in their home arena as he gets ready to make his Miami debut. The rotations will get a little tricky […]

Kendrick Nunn Will Not Play Wednesday

Miami Heat guard Kendrick Nunn (ankle) has been ruled out Wednesday against the Indiana Pacers. Nunn was questionable and had the chance to return after missing one game due to an ankle sprain, but will sit again as he continues to heal. Tyler Herro and Goran Dragic should get more opportunity here while Victor Oladipo […]

Malik Monk Downgraded To Out

Charlotte Hornets guard Malik Monk (foot) is now out against the Washington Wizards on Tuesday. Monk was expected to return after getting the probable tag, but will now miss his second straight game with foot soreness. Monk's absences have led to extra minutes for Cody Martin and Caleb Martin, but the big winner is Devonte' […]

Bradley Beal And Raul Neto Out Tuesday

Washington Wizards guards Bradley Beal (hip) and Raul Neto (rib) are both out Tuesday against the Charlotte Hornets. Beal left Saturday's game after a hard fall and will now miss his second straight game with the injury while Neto picked up the rib injury in Monday's win. Russell Westbrook put up a monster performance and […]
