De'Anthony Melton Won't Return On Tuesday

Philadelphia 76ers guard De'Anthony Melton (back) has been ruled out for the rest of Tuesday's game against the Boston Celtics. Melton missed nearly a month of action due to a back issue. Now, he's sidelined again after only nine minutes during Tuesday's game. Kyle Lowry is still under a minutes restriction. That means, Cameron Payne […]

Scoot Henderson Expected To Miss Road Trip

Portland Trail Blazers guard Scoot Henderson (groin) is expected to sit out the entire upcoming three-game road trip. The rookie guard hasn't played since before the All-Star break. He has already been ruled out for Tuesday's game which marks his third absence in a row. His next chance to play will be against the Oklahoma […]

Evan Carter Pulled From Sunday's Game

Texas Rangers outfielder Evan Carter (hand) was forced to exit early during Sunday's Cactus League matchup against the San Francisco Giants. The 21-year-old was drilled in the left hand by southpaw Kyle Harrison on Sunday. Rangers' manager Bruce Bochy and the team trainer met with Carter at first base. They decided to pull Carter from […]

Jackson Merrill Collects Two Hits

San Diego Padres shortstop Jackson Merrill put together a nice performance during Sunday's game against the Chicago Cubs. Merrill was given the start at designated hitter and batted leadoff during this game. He went 2-for-2 with a double and two RBI in the 7-0 win. The Padres are likely going to move Merrill around quite […]

Michael Busch Set To Make Spring Debut On Monday

Chicago Cubs infielder Michael Busch is scheduled to make his Cactus League debut on Monday. Cubs' manager Craig Counsell mentioned that Busch has been dealing with some shoulder soreness early in camp. That being said, the Cubs have been extra cautious because it's the beginning of spring. The early expectation was that Busch would see […]

James Wood Blasts Another Homer

Washington Nationals outfielder James Wood got off to a hot start this spring. The 21-year-old blasted the first pitch he saw on Saturday over the wall. He carried that power into Sunday's contest. Wood smashed a two-run home run during Sunday's win over the Miami Marlins. Despite the early success, it's doubtful that Wood will […]

Masyn Winn Looks Strong In Return

St. Louis Cardinals shortstop Masyn Winn (back) returned to the starting lineup after missing the first few spring contests. The young infielder looked ready to go as he went 3-for-3 with a double and a steal during Sunday's game against the Houston Astros. It doesn't appear that the back tightness was impacting his performance at […]

Shohei Ohtani To Make Spring Debut On Tuesday

Los Angeles Dodgers designated hitter Shohei Ohtani (elbow) is reportedly set to make his spring training debut on Tuesday. The superstar slugger has been able to take batting practice and appears to be progressing well from his elbow surgery. The assumption is that Ohtani will be ready for full-time DH duties once the regular season […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Cleared To Play

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) has been cleared to play ahead of Friday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. As expected, the superstar forward will suit up after being listed as probable heading into this game. Antetokounmpo has been dealing with a banged up knee, but that shouldn't impact his performance. Fantasy managers should feel […]

CJ McCollum Won't Return On Friday

New Orleans Pelicans guard CJ McCollum (ankle) was forced to exit early during Friday's game against the Miami Heat. McCollum suffered a left ankle sprain during the second quarter after he stepped on a teammate's foot. Before that, McCollum was having a rough night from the floor with only two points and two rebounds in […]

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope Upgraded To Probable

Denver Nuggets guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (finger) has been upgraded to probable ahead of Friday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. This is good news after Caldwell-Pope was considered questionable earlier in the day due to a right finger sprain. The Nuggets are shorthanded, so Caldwell-Pope could see an increased role on Friday. However, Christian Braun […]

LeBron James Expected To Suit Up

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is most likely going to suit up for Friday's game against the San Antonio Spurs, according to head coach Darvin Ham. The superstar forward is probable for this game, but will go through his pregame warmups with the intention of suiting up. If he's cleared to play, Taurean […]

Davis Bertans Downgraded To Out

Charlotte Hornets forward Davis Bertans (knee) has been downgraded to out ahead of Friday's game against the Golden State Warriors. Bertans was only able to play in six minutes of Thursday's game due to his knee injury. The absence of Bertans won't have a huge impact on the rotation. Grant Williams will likely see a […]

Jabari Walker Available On Friday

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jabari Walker (ankle) is available ahead of Friday's game against the Denver Nuggets. Walker was uncertain coming into this game, but will officially suit up. However, Walker will come off the bench with Toumani Camara, and Deandre Ayton starting on Friday. Fantasy managers who already have Walker rostered should hold him […]

Patrick Williams To Undergo Season-Ending Surgery

Chicago Bulls forward Patrick Williams (foot) will see his 2023-2024 campaign come to an abrupt end. Williams is reportedly expected to undergo season-ending foot surgery. He hasn't played since January 25, and Williams wasn't making strong progress in his recovery process. He played in all 82 games last season but will see his 2023 campaign […]

Brandon Ingram Won't Play On Friday

New Orleans Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram (illness) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Miami Heat. This marks the second game in a row that Ingram will be forced to miss due to an illness. Trey Murphy III started in his place on Thursday and finished with 13 points, three rebounds, an […]

Bradley Beal Ruled Out For Friday

Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Houston Rockets. The hope was that Beal would be healthy and ready to go after the All-Star break. That is not the case as the superstar guard will miss his second straight game on Friday. Both Eric Gordon and […]

Tyler Herro Available On Friday

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (foot) is available ahead of Friday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. That is great news for fantasy managers after Herro was listed as questionable coming into this game. He should be asked to play a bigger role in the rotation with Terry Rozier (knee) and Josh Richardson (shoulder) both […]

Deni Avdija Ruled Out On Friday

Washington Wizards forward Deni Avdija (heel) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. This is a bit surprising given that Avdija wasn't included on the most recent injury report. Bilal Coulibaly would normally be the favorite to start, but he's already in the starting five with Jordan Poole being […]

Zion Williamson To Play On Friday

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (foot) is available ahead of Friday's game against the Miami Heat. Williamson is surprisingly available after playing 35 minutes during Thursday's game. The Pelicans are without Brandon Ingram (illness) so possibly they didn't want to be without both players. Williamson will have an increased scoring responsibility with Ingram sitting […]

De'Anthony Melton Available For Friday's Game

Philadelphia 76ers guard De'Anthony Melton (back) is available ahead of Friday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Melton has been sidelined since January 12, but will make his return to the court here. The expectation is that Melton is going to be under a minutes restriction during his first game back. He won't be worth looking […]

Jaren Jackson Jr. Available On Friday

Memphis Grizzlies forward Jaren Jackson Jr. (quad) is available ahead of Friday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. Jackson is back in action after sitting out the final game before the All-Star break. His return will shift Trey Jemison back to the bench on Friday. Jemison won't offer strong streaming appeal while behind Jackson in […]

RJ Barrett Ruled Out For Friday's Game

Toronto Raptors guard RJ Barrett (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. The Raptors have decided to take a cautious approach after Mitchell played 29 minutes during their last game. As a result, Jordan Nwora will move into the starting five for the second straight night. A move to […]

Donovan Mitchell Won't Play On Friday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (illness) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. This marks the second game in a row that Mitchell has missed due to an illness. Isaac Okoro figures to move into the starting five once again with Mitchell sidelined. He's not a great streaming option, but […]

Scoot Henderson Ruled Out For Friday

Portland Trail Blazers guard Scoot Henderson (groin) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Denver Nuggets. The rookie guard has been banged up due to injuries this season, but Henderson has played well whenever he's healthy. Recently, head coach Chauncey Billups said that Henderson will remain in the starting five for the […]

Marcus Smart To Be Evaluated In Three Weeks

Memphis Grizzlies guard Marcus Smart (finger) is set to be re-evaluated in three weeks. It sounds like the veteran guard is making solid progress in his recovery from his injured ring finger. However, Smart will need to keep a splint on his finger for the next three weeks before being re-evaluated. Fantasy managers might want […]

Desmond Bane Could Return In A Month

Memphis Grizzlies guard Desmond Bane (ankle) continues to work his way back to the court. Recently, Bane was given a 3-5 week timetable to get back on the floor. That timetable would put Bane back in action around the middle of March. That isn't great news for fantasy managers as it would likely already be […]

Max Christie Will Play On Thursday

Los Angeles Lakers guard Max Christie (ankle) is available ahead of Thursday's game against the Golden State Warriors. Christie returns to the floor after missing each of the last two games before the All-Star break. The absences of Cam Reddish (ankle) and LeBron James (ankle) should mean an increased role for Christie. He's worth a […]

Domantas Sabonis Available On Thursday

Sacramento Kings forward Domantas Sabonis (illness) has been upgraded to available ahead of Thursday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. The star forward is ready to go after being listed as questionable heading into this game. Sabonis has been red-hot with five triple-doubles in his last seven games. Fantasy managers better make sure Sabonis isn't […]

Anthony Davis Cleared For Thursday's Game

Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (Achilles) has been cleared to play ahead of Thursday's game against the Golden State Warriors. The superstar big man will suit up for this game after being listed as probable earlier in the day. Davis will be asked to carry a heavier workload on offense with LeBron James (ankle) […]
