Kris Dunn To Miss Monday’s Outing

Chicago Bulls point guard Kris Dunn will be absent from Monday’s game versus the Milwaukee Bucks due to a “severe” migraine. Ryan Arcidiacono has been announced as the starter at the point in his place, although Zach LaVine could also be tabbed for additional ball-handling duties. Dunn has been in a rut from the floor […]

James Johnson To Miss Monday’s Game

Miami Heat power forward James Johnson has been ruled out for Monday’s contest versus the Phoenix Suns due to a left shoulder injury. Johnson’s absence will mark his second straight game on the sidelines, paving the way for Kelly Olynyk and Bam Adebayo to see more opportunities in the frontcourt. Unable to find his groove […]

Jordan Bell To Be Sidelined Monday

Golden State Warriors power forward/center Jordan Bell will be absent for Monday’s contest versus the Charlotte Hornets due to flu-like symptoms, with the team going as far as keeping him at the hotel in order to avoid infecting other players. Bell’s playing time has fluctuated wildly as of late with his spot on the depth […]

Rodney McGruder Ruled Out For Monday’s Contest

Miami Heat shooting guard Rodney McGruder entered the starting lineup Saturday, but will be absent from the rotation entirely Monday against the Phoenix Suns due to a knee injury, although his MRI results did not reveal any damage that would keep him out long term. It’s been a roller coaster season for McGruder, who is […]

Tyreke Evans To Suit Up Monday

Indiana Pacers point/shooting guard Tyreke Evans has been cleared to play in Monday’s contest versus the Detroit Pistons after being tagged as questionable earlier in the day due to left ankle soreness. Evans has remained a key bench cog for the Pacers in the absence of Victor Oladipo, although his scoring has taken a step […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Ruled Out On Monday

Milwaukee Bucks small forward Giannis Antetokounmpo will officially sit out Monday’s game versus the Chicago Bulls due to right knee soreness. Antetokounmpo had been doubtful throughout the day Monday, with the remainder of his teammates in position to see slight bumps in usage without their leading scorer on the scene. There likely isn’t much cause […]

Justise Winslow Ruled Out For Monday’s Game

Miami Heat point guard/small forward Justise Winslow will miss Monday’s outing versus the Phoenix Suns due to a knee injury. The contest will be Winslow’s second straight game in street clothes, as he was doubtful to play Monday from the jump. His absence should allow Goran Dragic to see an increased workload as he makes […]

Myles Turner Cleared To Suit Up Monday

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner will make his return to action for Monday’s game against the Detroit Pistons after having previously missed his team’s past two outings due to a hip injury. Turner was able to go through shootaround earlier in the day, so the fact that he’ll give it a go isn’t all that […]

Luka Doncic To Make Return Monday

Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Luka Doncic has been given the green light to suit up for Monday’s contest versus the Los Angeles Clippers after having missed the previous two games due to an ankle injury. Doncic went down on the heels of back-to-back double-doubles, nearing completing triple-doubles in both outings. He returns for a golden match-up […]

Anthony Davis Ruled Out For Second Half Thursday

New Orleans Pelicans power forward/center Anthony Davis will not return to Thursday’s contest versus the Oklahoma City Thunder due to what the team is deeming a left shoulder injury. The Davis/Pelicans situation is becoming borderline untenable from a fantasy perspective, with one of the league’s top players logging significantly decreased minutes since the passing of […]

Elfrid Payton To Miss Thursday’s Contest

New Orleans Pelicans point guard Elfrid Payton will be sidelined for the ninth consecutive game Thursday against the Oklahoma City Thunder due to a right ankle sprain. Despite earning a questionable tag earlier in the day, there never really seemed like a chance that Payton would play as head coach Alvin Gentry has focused on […]

Markieff Morris Set To Sign With Thunder

Free-agent power forward Markieff Morris will reportedly join the Oklahoma City Thunder, per Shams Charania of The Athletic. Morris last suited up on Dec. 26, having been sidelined since due to a neck injury. The veteran forward reportedly had multiple suitors for his services, but will join a Thunder squad that sits third in the […]

Domantas Sabonis Caps First Half With Near Double-Double

Indiana Pacers power forward/center Domantas Sabonis emerged as a breakout fantasy contributor prior to the All-Star break this season, putting the finishing touches on his first-half numbers during Wednesday’s loss to the Milwaukee Bucks. While he essentially just hit his averages, Sabonis finished with 14 points, nine rebounds, three assists and two steals coming off […]

Brook Lopez Knocks Down Trio Of Threes In Win

Milwaukee Bucks center Brook Lopez produced an odd-looking stat sheet during Wednesday’s win over the Indiana Pacers. The Bucks’ starting center took 11 shots in total, 10 of which came from behind the three-point line en route to hitting three, which accounted for all nine of his points. Lopez did manage to add six rebounds […]

Eric Bledsoe Produces Rare Clunker In Win

Milwaukee Bucks point guard Eric Bledsoe tied his season low with 21 minutes played during Wednesday’s victory over the Indiana Pacers. Where he set a new season low outright was in points, which he delivered just four of on 1-for-4 shooting. It appears that it was just Bledsoe’s turn to not log a pile of […]

Bojan Bogdanovic Finishes With Team-High 20 Points

Indiana Pacers small forward Bojan Bogdanovic continued to lead the way offensively for his squad during Wednesday’s loss to the Milwaukee Bucks, finishing with a team-best 20 points.

Giannis Antetokounmpo Ends First Half With Triple-Double

Milwaukee Bucks small forward Giannis Antetokounmpo dominated in his team’s final contest prior to the All-Star break, logging his fifth triple-double of the season during Wednesday’s win over the Indiana Pacers.

Karl-Anthony Towns Sinks Trio Of Triples In Near Double-Double

Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns will enter the All-Star break with a streak of six consecutive games in which he has scored at least 20 points following his 25-point effort during Wednesday’s loss to the Houston Rockets. Towns shot 11-for-18 from the field overall, while also going 3-for-4 from deep, adding in nine rebounds, five […]

Kenneth Faried Logs Double-Double In Defeat

Houston Rockets power forward/center Kenneth Faried closed out the first half with a 12-point, 11-rebound double-double versus the Minnesota Timberwolves on Wednesday. Since joining the Rockets, Faried has gone for a double-double in eight of his 12 games, including five of his most recent six. How he’ll slot into the rotation during the second half […]

Jeff Teague Drops Team-High 27 Points In Win

Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Jeff Teague appears back to form, having gone for 27 points and 12 assists across 38 minutes during Wednesday’s victory over the Houston Rockets. The scoring output matches his season high, which he recorded on Opening Night, Oct. 17. After an eight-game absence due to a foot injury, Teague’s performance in […]

Luol Deng Fills Stat Sheet During Start

Minnesota Timberwolves small forward Luol Deng drew another start during Wednesday’s victory over the Houston Rockets in place of Andrew Wiggins and saw a hefty workload to boot. Deng recorded 13 points, eight rebounds, four assists and two blocks in 36 minutes of action during his second time in the starting five, more than delivering […]

James Harden Hits Historic Mark With 30-Point Streak

Houston Rockets point/shooting guard James Harden etched his name into the record books with his 42-point outing during Wednesday’s loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves, tying Wilt Chamberlain for the second-longest streak of finishing with 30 or more points at 31 consecutive contests. His M.O. of late has been to shoot, and shoot often, which was […]

Enes Kanter To Join Blazers

Center Enes Kanter has found a new home, as he is reportedly set to join the Portland Trail Blazers for their playoff push, as first reported by Adrian Wojnarowski. The move brings Kanter full-circle in many ways as he originally signed an offer sheet to join Portland back in 2015, before seeing Oklahoma City match […]

Andre Iguodala To Miss Wednesday’s Game

Golden State Warriors small forward Andre Iguodala will join teammates DeMarcus Cousins and Shaun Livingston in resting to close out the first half against the Portland Trail Blazers on Wednesday. Iguodala missed a game Sunday due to hamstring tightness before returning to play Tuesday, so Golden State remaining cautious with the veteran doesn’t come as […]

Dwyane Wade To Suit Up On Wednesday

Miami Heat shooting guard Dwyane Wade will take the floor for his final contest as a visitor in Dallas on Wednesday. Wade had been tagged as questionable throughout the day due to an illness, having missed shootaround, but it appears the 16-year vet wants to at least give it a go. Dion Waiters has seen […]

Andrew Wiggins To Miss Wednesday’s Game

Minnesota Timberwolves shooting guard/small forward Andrew Wiggins will miss his second straight game Wednesday versus the Houston Rockets. Wiggins was able to participate in shootaround earlier in the day, but head coach Ryan Saunders has opted to rule him out regardless. The move will allow Luol Deng to continue seeing a sizable workload in his […]

Kris Dunn Ruled Out On Wednesday

Chicago Bulls point guard Kris Dunn will be sidelined for Wednesday’s game versus the Memphis Grizzlies due to a back contusion. The move to hold Dunn out isn’t entirely surprising after he was unable to practice Tuesday, with Ryan Arcidiacono set to make his 25th start of the year in Dunn’s place. Dunn’s first half […]

Tomas Satoransky To Remain Out For Wednesday’s Game

Washington Wizards point guard Tomas Satoransky will miss his second straight outing Wednesday against the Toronto Raptors as he attends to the birth of his child. Taking Satoransky’s place in the starting five will again be Chasson Randle, who ultimately deferred much of the ball-handling duties to Bradley Beal, who should be in line for […]

Treveon Graham Ruled Out On Wednesday

Brooklyn Nets shooting guard/small forward Treveon Graham will be sidelined for Wednesday’s contest versus the Cleveland Cavaliers due to personal reasons. Graham will join Rodions Kurucs as wings missing the contest for Brooklyn, which should open up more minutes for Allen Crabbe (who will not have a minutes restriction) and DeMarre Carroll. Graham has averaged […]

Kawhi Leonard Ruled Out For Wednesday’s Game

Toronto Raptors small forward Kawhi Leonard will miss Wednesday’s contest versus the Washington Wizards due to knee soreness. The injury tag popped up for Leonard earlier in the day and the club will hold him out of their final game of the first half. Of the 59 games the Raptors played prior to the All-Star […]
