Gordon Hayward Doubtful For Thursday

Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (hamstring) is considered doubtful for Thursday's game against the Toronto Raptors. The 32-year-old has been sidelined for roughly a week due to hamstring soreness. It doesn't sound like Hayward is ready to return yet, so fantasy managers shouldn't expect him to suit up on Thursday. In the meantime, Jalen McDaniels […]

Grayson Allen Won't Return On Wednesday

Milwaukee Bucks guard Grayson Allen (ankle) has been ruled out for the rest of Wednesday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. The 27-year-old suffered a right ankle sprain, which forced him to exit after the first half. He finished the game with six points, two rebounds, and two assists. Both Joe Ingles and MarJo Beauchamp will […]

Cameron Johnson Does 1-On-1 Work

Phoenix Suns guard Cameron Johnson (knee) has been able to do 1-on-1 work, according to head coach Monty Williams. This is great news, as Johnson is working his way back from a right meniscus tear in early November. The organization hasn't given a timetable for his return, but it sounds like Johnson is making progress. […]

Damian Lillard Questionable For Thursday

Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The superstar guard has been playing big minutes lately, so he could use a day off. That being said, his absence would leave a big hole in the rotation. Anfernee Simons would likely be asked to move […]

Patrick Beverley Tagged As Questionable For Thursday

Los Angeles Lakers guard Patrick Beverley (illness, hip) is currently listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. He was forced to exit early during Monday's game and sat out of Wednesday's practice. It sounds like the illness is what kept Beverley out of practice on Wednesday. That being said, fantasy managers are […]

Anthony Edwards Won't Return On Wednesday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards (hip) won't return to Wednesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. The young guard has been battling through left hip soreness the last few games. Clearly, it is still bothering him as it was forced him to miss the rest of this game. It's uncertain if this issue is going to […]

LeBron James Expected To Play On Thursday

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is currently listed as probable for Thursday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. The All-Star forward sat out of Monday's game due to left ankle soreness. However, it sounds like James is feeling good enough to get back on the court after a one-game absence. Max Christie would head […]

Kevin Huerter Won't Suit Up Wednesday

Sacramento Kings guard Kevin Huerter (illness) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Houston Rockets. He was originally listed as questionable for this game, but will sit out due to a non-COVID related illness. His absence will likely result in Terence Davis moving into the starting five. Malik Monk should remain as the […]

Landry Shamet Ruled Out For Tuesday

Phoenix Suns guard Landry Shamet (hip) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Golden State Warriors. This hurts with the Suns already shorthanded for this contest. The team is without Deandre Ayton, Chris Paul, Devin Booker, and Shamet for Tuesday's contest. The expectation is that Damion Lee or Josh Okogie would move into […]

Jusuf Nurkic To Suit Up On Tuesday

Portland Trail Blazers center Jusuf Nurkic (illness) is available for Tuesday's game against the Orlando Magic. As expected, Nurkic will suit up despite him dealing with a non-COVID related illness. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect his production to take a hit as he has been playing well lately. He should play his normal role, which means […]

Malik Beasley Gets The Starting Nod On Tuesday

Utah Jazz guard Malik Beasley will move into the starting five for Tuesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. This move isn't injury related, so fantasy managers shouldn't be concerned. Head coach Will Hardy is playing matchups, so Jarred Vanderbilt will come off the bench for at least this game. Beasley is worth a look as […]

Kelly Olynyk Likely To Miss Multiple Games

Utah Jazz forward Kelly Olynyk (ankle) won't suit up for Tuesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. In fact, it sounds like Olynyk is likely to miss more than one game due to his sprained left ankle. Head coach Will Hardy mentioned that Olynyk's injury is more significant than a day-to-day type of issue. That being […]

Gary Payton II Available On Tuesday

Portland Trail Blazers guard Gary Payton II (ankle) is available for Tuesday's game against the Orlando Magic. He has been cleared to play after sitting out of Sunday's contest due to a sprained right ankle. Shaedon Sharpe and Keon Johnson will see less playing time with Payton back in the rotation. Neither of them are […]

Stephen Curry To Play On Tuesday

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (shoulder) will make his return to the court against the Phoenix Suns on Tuesday. The 34-year-old was sidelined multiple weeks due to a left shoulder injury. He'll be in the starting five on Tuesday, but it's unclear if he'll have a minutes limit during this game. Curry hasn't played […]

Rashawn Slater Designated To Return From Injured Reserve

Los Angeles Chargers offensive tackle Rashawn Slater (biceps) has been designated to return from the injured reserve. Slater has been out since he tore his biceps tendon towards the end of September. He won't suit up for the playoff matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. However, Slater has a chance at returning during the postseason, assuming […]

Dee Eskridge To Return From Injured Reserve

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Dee Eskridge (hand) has been designated to return from the injured reserve. The 25-year-old suffered a broken hand returning kickoffs in Week 10. He has been sidelined since then, but has a chance to return for the postseason. The Seahawks have been using Cade Johnson and Dareke Young as their extra […]

Trevor Lawrence Limited During Tuesday's Practice

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence (toe) was a limited participant during Tuesday's practice. The 23-year-old continues to deal with a lingering toe issue, but he has been playing through the issue. The expectation is that Lawrence will continue to play unless the problem gets worse. The Jaguars have a playoff matchup against the Los Angeles […]

Riley Patterson Misses Tuesday's Practice

Jacksonville Jaguars kicker Riley Patterson (knee) did not suit up for practice on Tuesday. This is a bit concerning with the Jaguars having a playoff game on Saturday against the Los Angeles Chargers. The 24-year-old knocked down 30-of-35 field goal attempts, while missing only one extra point attempt during the regular season. His absence would […]

DeAndre Hopkins Likely To Be Traded This Offseason

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins is expected to be traded this upcoming offseason. The organization appears ready to move on from the 30-year-old who has two years left on his current contract. The fact that Hopkins wants a new deal is possibly why the team wants to trade him this offseason. Regardless, the superstar […]

Larry Nance Jr. Available On Monday

New Orleans Pelicans forward Larry Nance Jr. (shoulder) is available for Monday's game against the Washington Wizards. The veteran forward has been banged up lately and only played in three of the last 11 games. Nance has struggled heavily during those games, so he won't be a recommended streaming option on Monday. His return should […]

Josh Richardson To Play Against Grizzlies

San Antonio Spurs guard Josh Richardson (personal) is available for Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. The veteran guard was considered questionable earlier in the day due to an undisclosed reason. He should play a significant role in the rotation with Devin Vassell (knee) and Keldon Johnson (hamstring) ruled out for this game. Richardson has […]

Joel Embiid Listed As Questionable For Tuesday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot) is considered questionable for Tuesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. The big man has missed each of the last three games due to left foot soreness. In his absence, Montrezl Harrell and Paul Reed have picked up additional playing time. Both players have been doing well, but Harrell is […]

Alex Caruso To Return On Monday

Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (ankle) is available for Monday's game against the Boston Celtics. The 28-year-old is ready to play after missing each of the last two games due to a right ankle sprain. The expectation is that he won't be limited and should resume his normal role in the rotation. His return will […]

Kevin Durant Likely To Miss A Month

Brooklyn Nets forward Kevin Durant (knee) is expected to miss roughly a month of action. This is bad news for the Nets who were playing extremely well as of late. The All-Star forward is dealing with a right MCL sprain. It sounds like his return date is around February 9th, but the All-Star break is […]

Stephen Curry Upgraded To Probable For Tuesday

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (shoulder) has been upgraded to probable for Tuesday's game against the Phoenix Suns. The 34-year-old appears to be ahead of schedule from his left shoulder injury. It's unclear whether or not Curry is going to be limited during his first few games back in the rotation. Regardless, fantasy managers […]

RJ Barrett Remains Out On Monday

New York Knicks guard RJ Barrett (finger) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. The 22-year-old was listed as doubtful, so there was a little hope he'd return for this game. Sadly, he'll miss his sixth game in a row as he continues to work his way back from a right […]

Jakob Poeltl Available On Monday

San Antonio Spurs center Jakob Poeltl (Achilles) is available for Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. The big man returns after his one-game absence due to an Achilles issue. His return means Zach Collins heads to the bench, so he won't have much streaming appeal with the second unit. It doesn't sound like the team […]

Keldon Johnson Ruled Out For Monday

San Antonio Spurs guard Keldon Johnson (hamstring) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He sat out Saturday's contest and it appears he's still not ready to play due to left hamstring tightness. The Spurs could be very shorthanded with Devin Vassell (hamstring) out and Josh Richardson listed as questionable. Malaki […]

LeBron James Won't Play Versus Nuggets

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is listed as out for Monday's game against the Denver Nuggets. The All-Star forward was originally probable before getting a questionable tag earlier in the day. Now, the Lakers have decided to rule out James for this contest. His absence should mean Russell Westbrook sees his usage skyrocket. […]

Anthony Davis To Begin Ramping Up Activities

Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (foot) is set to begin ramping up activities this week. The 29-year-old is recovering after suffering a fractured bone spur and a stress reaction in his navicular bone. He has been sidelined since mid-December. The hope is that Davis can get back on the floor within the next few […]
