LeBron James Ruled Out Monday

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He exited with roughly seven minutes left during Sunday's contest. It appears he rushed himself back to the court and will miss at least one game. However, there's a good chance that James sits out on Tuesday […]

Maxi Kleber Could Sit Out Tuesday

Dallas Mavericks forward Maxi Kleber (Achilles) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Miami Heat. This is unfortunate news with Kristaps Porzingis (knee) already listed as doubtful. The Mavs are likely going to ask Dorian Finney-Smith to play a significant role with Willie Cauley-Stein and Dwight Powell getting more involved. Finney-Smith should be […]

Kristaps Porzingis Doubtful Against Heat

Dallas Mavericks center Kristaps Porzingis (knee) is listed as doubtful for Tuesday's game against the Miami Heat. This is likely going to be the third game in a row that Porzingis has missed due to this knee injury. Fantasy managers shouldn't count on Porzingis being out there with how cautious the Mavs have been with […]

Nerlens Noel Is Questionable On Monday

New York Knicks center Nerlens Noel (ankle) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He tweaked his ankle during Sunday's contest and was unable to return. The Knicks might wait and see how Noel feels during pregame warmups before making a final decision. Taj Gibson and Norvel Pelle would be asked […]

LeBron James Exits Early In Loss

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) was unable to finish out Sunday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He basically disappeared with seven minutes left in the game, but wasn't helping much with five turnovers before exiting. It was later mentioned that James is dealing with right ankle soreness. Hopefully, James won't miss any games, […]

Gordon Hayward Could Return Before Playoffs

Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (foot) reportedly has shed his walking boot, which is great news. However, the team has not given a timetable for Hayward's return to the court. The hope is that Hayward can return slightly before the playoffs, so he can get a few games in as a test run. It's highly […]

Norman Powell Might Sit Out Monday

Portland Trail Blazers forward Norman Powell (knee) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. He is dealing with a minor knee issue, but it wouldn't be shocking to see the Blazers take the cautious approach. The playoffs are quickly approaching and they don't need Powell suffering a long term injury. Derrick […]

Dennis Schroder Likely To Miss Two Weeks

Los Angeles Lakers guard Dennis Schroder is expected to miss roughly 10-14 days while he follows the NBA's health and safety guidelines. This is a significant blow to the Lakers as Schroder could miss the rest of the regular season. Anthony Davis and LeBron James will be asked to carry a heavier load. Alex Caruso […]

Christian Wood Believes He'll Miss Time

Houston Rockets center Christian Wood (ankle, quad) mentioned that he thinks he'll miss a couple of games due to injury. He was already dealing with an ankle issue and tweaked his quad during Sunday's contest. The Rockets aren't playing for anything, so they have no incentive to play Wood. Fantasy managers should expect Kenyon Martin […]

Tony Snell Removed From Injury Report

Atlanta Hawks forward Tony Snell (ankle) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Monday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He was originally listed as questionable, but it appears he's healthy enough to suit up. Snell has been playing minutes in the low 20s, but is one of the hottest shooters from beyond […]

Steven Adams Listed As Questionable On Monday

New Orleans Pelicans center Steven Adams (toe) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Golden State Warriors. He has missed three of the last four games while dealing with a toe issue. Willy Hernangomez has seen extended playing time and has been doing well without Adams available. Hernangomez averages 12.5 points, 11.0 rebounds […]

Devonte' Graham Available Versus Heat

Charlotte Hornets guard Devonte Graham (knee) will be available for Sunday's game against the Miami Heat. He was questionable coming into the game, but it sounds like he felt fine during pregame warmups. Graham is expected to come off the bench with LaMelo Ball moving into the starting five. He should still see enough touches […]

Mike Conley Won't Play Monday

Utah Jazz guard Mike Conley (hamstring) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. This marks the fourth game in a row that Conley has been sidelined. The fact he is being ruled out a full day in advance is not good news for fantasy managers. The Jazz are likely being […]

Dejounte Murray, DeMar DeRozan Out On Sunday

San Antonio Spurs guard Dejounte Murray (rest, knee) and forward DeMar DeRozan (rest) will be sidelined for Sunday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. This shouldn't come as a surprise given it's the front end of a back-to-back set. Lonnie Walker IV, Devin Vassell, and Patty Mills should see significant roles in the offense on Sunday. […]

Jakob Poeltl Sitting Out Versus Sixers

San Antonio Spurs center Jakob Poeltl (rest) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. It's the front end of a back-to-back set, so the Spurs will rest a handful of their starters. Drew Eubanks played extremely well last time Poeltl was sidelined, but fantasy managers shouldn't expect it to happen […]

Harrison Barnes, Chimezie Metu Ruled Out Sunday

Sacramento Kings forward Harrison Barnes (groin) and center Chimezie Metu (back) have been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. Barnes has been banged up lately, which has been resulting in more playing time for Metu. The Kings are shorthanded here with both of them sidelined on Sunday. Marvin Bagley III and Delon […]

Tristan Thompson Starting Versus Blazers

Boston Celtics center Tristan Thompson will move into the starting five for Sunday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. The veteran center will get the starting nod over Robert Williams. This is likely a matchup move by head coach Brad Stevens, so expect both players to get plenty of minutes. Williams remains the better fantasy […]

LaMelo Ball Remains In Starting Five

Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball (rest) will remain in the starting five for Sunday's game against the Miami Heat. The young guard recently returned from injury, so there was some thought that he'd sit this one out to rest. Despite it being a back-to-back set, Ball will be out there. Fantasy managers should feel comfortable […]

Jaylen Brown Questionable Versus Blazers

Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. This team cannot afford to lose Brown with Kemba Walker (oblique) already sidelined for this game. Jayson Tatum would be a must-have DFS option without Brown or Walker on the court. Marcus Smart, Evan Fournier, and Aaron […]

Kemba Walker Remains Sidelined Sunday

Boston Celtics guard Kemba Walker (oblique) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He'll miss his fourth game in a row, but the team continues to call him day-to-day. Marcus Smart, Evan Fournier, and Payton Pritchard will see more minutes on Sunday. Smart is the best fantasy option out of […]

Devonte' Graham Could Miss Another Game

Charlotte Hornets guard Devonte' Graham (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Miami Heat. He was a late scratch from Saturday's contest due to a knee issue. It sounds like he'll test it out pregame and see whether or not he can give it a go. LaMelo Ball and Malik Monk would […]

Tim Hardaway Jr. Ruled Out For Sunday

Dallas Mavericks guard Tim Hardaway Jr. (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Sacramento Kings. It's the second game of a back-to-back set, so this is likely just the Mavs giving their veteran a day off. Fantasy managers should expect Hardaway to be fine going forward. Josh Richardson, Jalen Brunson, and Trey […]

Aleksej Pokusevski Questionable Against Suns

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Aleksej Pokusevski (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Phoenix Suns. He sat out on Saturday due to a bruised knee and very well could miss this game too. The Thunder have been cautious with injuries, while they tank for draft position. It's hard to imagine anyone on […]

Bobby Portis Late Scratch On Sunday

Milwaukee Bucks center Bobby Portis (illness) is a late scratch from Sunday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. This is unfortunate since Portis has been a decent streaming option lately. It sounds like this is a non-COVID related illness, so hopefully it'll be just a one game absence for Portis. P.J. Tucker will see more minutes […]

Grayson Allen Doubtful For Saturday

Memphis Grizzlies guard Grayson Allen (hand) is listed as doubtful for Saturday's game against the Orlando Magic. He missed Friday's game due to a hand issue and could very well sit out again. Desmond Bone and De'Anthony Melton stand to gain the most fantasy value without Allen available. They will likely split up the playing […]

Kyle Kuzma Listed As Probable For Sunday

Los Angeles Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma (thumb) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He sprained his thumb during Friday's contest, but the fact he is probable is good news. The Lakers are usually fairly cautious, so a probable tag shouldn't alarm fantasy managers. It has been a tough last few […]

Nikola Vucevic Scratched On Saturday

Chicago Bulls center Nikola Vucevic (groin) is a late scratch from Saturday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. It was originally mentioned earlier in the day that Vucevic was cleared to play on Saturday. Possibly, Vucevic suffered a setback during pregame warmups and will sit out as a precaution. Nonetheless, Daniel Theis and Thaddeus Young will […]

Domantas Sabonis Return Versus Thunder

Indiana Pacers forward Domantas Sabonis (back) will return to the lineup for Saturday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He has missed each of the last six games due to a back issue. There is no mention of whether or not Sabonis will be limited at all in this contest. Both Oshae Brissett and Jakarr […]

Kemba Walker Unlikely To Play Sunday

Boston Celtics guard Kemba Walker (oblique) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Walker continues to sit out due to a nagging oblique issue that has cost him significant playing time. Jayson Tatum has been asked to carry the offense in his absence. Marcus Smart, Evan Fournier and Payton Pritchard […]

Gary Harris Moves Into Starting Five

Orlando Magic guard Gary Harris will slide into the starting five for Saturday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Both Terrence Ross (back) and James Ennis III (calf) have been ruled out for this game. Harris will have a much higher usage than normal with the Magic banged up. He'll be a sneaky streaming choice and […]
