Additionally, a larger offensive roll could be […]

D.J. Wilson Set To Play Friday

Milwaukee Bucks power forward D.J. Wilson has been cleared for action Friday against the Washington Wizards. Wilson is averaging just 17.7 minutes per game this year, but with Giannis Antetokounmpo sidelined, Wilson, who is battling a hip injury, could be worth the play in DFS at his low price.

Brooklyn Nets small/power forward Jared Dudley will not be able to suit up for Friday’s game against the Toronto Raptors due to the left hamstring injury that forced him early from Wednesday’s contest.

Maurice Harkless To Remain Out On Friday

Portland Trail Blazers small forward Maurice Harkless has already been ruled out for Friday’s contest versus the Charlotte Hornets due to left knee soreness.

Philadelphia 76ers shooting guard J.J. Redick is questionable to play in Friday’s contest versus the Atlanta Hawks due to a back injury that has cost him his team’s previous two games.

Derrick Rose Officially Listed As Questionable

Minnesota Timberwolves point/shooting guard Derrick Rose has been tagged as questionable to suit up for Friday’s contest versus the Dallas Mavericks due to a sprained right ankle.
