Mo Bamba Moves Into Starting Lineup

Orlando Magic center Mo Bamba will move into the starting five for Thursday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. The absence of Wendell Carter Jr. (ankle) should make Bamba an interesting streaming option for Thursday. He'll have favorable fantasy value, assuming he can stay out of foul trouble. Chuma Okeke should get more minutes as […]

Dario Saric Available Against Celtics

Phoenix Suns forward Dario Saric (ankle) is available for Thursday's game against the Boston Celtics. He normally isn't a huge part of the rotation, but Saric could see more minutes with the Suns being a little shorthanded. Sadly, Saric rarely does enough on the court to warrant using as a streaming option. Fantasy managers should […]

Deni Avdija Suffers Injury On Wednesday

Washington Wizards forward Deni Avdija (leg) was forced to exit early during Wednesday's game against the Golden State Warriors. He came down awkwardly on his right foot and appeared to be in a lot of pain. Avdija was wheelchaired off the court, so fantasy managers should expect him to miss some time. Davis Bertans would […]

Jayson Tatum Could Sit Versus Suns

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Phoenix Suns. It's the front end of a back-to-back set, so it wouldn't be surprising to see the Celtics hold out a few key players. Grant Williams and Semi Ojeleye would see additional playing time, assuming Tatum is out. Neither […]

Paul George, Reggie Jackson Out On Wednesday

Los Angeles Clippers guard Reggie Jackson (rest) and forward Paul George (rest) have been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. It appears the Clippers are going to give most of their starters the night off in the second game of the back-to-back set. Luke Kennard, Marcus Morris, and Terance Mann should all […]

Kevin Porter Jr. Sitting Out On Wednesday

Houston Rockets guard Kevin Porter Jr. has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Utah Jazz. He will be sidelined here due to the league's health and safety protocols. The loss of Porter will be significant to the Rockets rotation. John Wall and Jae'sean Tate will be asked to pick up the slack offensively. […]

Terrence Ross, James Ennis III Questionable Thursday

Orlando Magic guards Terrence Ross (back) and James Ennis III (calf) are listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Both players have been dealing with minor injuries lately and the team isn't in a rush to bring either of them back to the court. R.J. Hampton and Gary Harris should see […]

Richaun Holmes Remains Sidelined On Wednesday

Sacramento Kings center Richaun Holmes (hamstring) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. This marks the fifth straight game that Holmes has been sidelined due to injury. It's uncertain when he'll get back on the court since the Kings have not given much of a timetable. Hassan Whiteside has become a […]

Tyler Herro Will Play Versus Spurs

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (foot) will be available for Wednesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. He missed Monday's contest due to right foot soreness. However, it sounds like he'll be ready for this one and shouldn't be limited. Herro's return will cut into the playing time for Goran Dragic and Kendrick Nunn.

Fred Vanvleet Removed From Injury Report

Toronto Raptors guard Fred VanVleet (hip) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Wednesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He has been battling a hip issue and also had to serve a one-game suspension. He'll return alongside most of the other injured Raptors' on Wednesday. That means, the Malachi Flynn bandwagon is likely […]

Jerami Grant Available On Wednesday

Detroit Pistons forward Jerami Grant (quad) will be available for Wednesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. He isn't on the injury report after sitting out Monday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. However, Wednesday is the front end of a back-to-back set, so fantasy managers should expect Grant to sit out on Thursday. Nonetheless, he'll be […]

Killian Hayes Likely Out Wednesday

Detroit Pistons guard Killian Hayes (rest) is listed as doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. The team is calling it "injury management", but who knows how injured Hayes really is right now. Frank Jackson, Saben Lee and Cory Joseph will handle the point guard minutes with Dennis Smith Jr. (knee) sidelined. Jackson has […]

Dennis Smith Jr. Doubtful Against Mavericks

Detroit Pistons guard Dennis Smith Jr. (knee) is listed as doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. He has been dealing with multiple issues that have held him out of the last five games. Cory Joseph and Saben Lee will be asked to pick up basically all the minutes at point guard with Killian […]

Enes Kanter Slides Into Starting Five

Portland Trail Blazers center Enes Kanter will move into the starting five for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. Jusuf Nurkic (rest) will sit this one out, so Kanter immediately becomes a favorable fantasy option. He recorded a 30-rebound game earlier this month. Kanter should have no problem grabbing boards against the Clippers bigs […]

Derrick Jones Jr. Gets The Start

Portland Trail Blazers forward Derrick Jones Jr. will move into the starting five for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. Superstar guard Damian Lillard (hamstring) will be sidelined for this one. C.J. McCollum and Norman Powell will be asked to carry the offense, but Jones has some low-end streaming appeal. It's uncertain if Lillard […]

Terance Mann Starting For Kawhi Leonard

Los Angeles Clippers forward Terance Mann will move into the starting five for Tuesday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He'll replace Kawhi Leonard (foot) who is expected to miss a week of action. This could very well be a revolving door at small forward depending on how Mann plays. Paul George will be asked […]

Jaylen Nowell Ruled Out Against Kings

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Jaylen Nowell (tibia) won't play in Tuesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. This doesn't come as a surprise considering his injury. His absence won't have much of an impact on the rotation. Both D'Angelo Russell and Anthony Edwards are healthy, so expect them to be favorable DFS options for Tuesday.

Isaiah Roby Ruled Out For Monday

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Isaiah Roby (toe) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Washington Wizards. It's the second game of a back-to-back set, so it's not shocking to see Roby sidelined. The Thunder continue to tank, so this seems to be the new normal for them. Darius Bazley and Aleksej Pokusevski will […]

Ben Simmons Could Sit Against Warriors

Philadelphia 76ers guard Ben Simmons (illness) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Golden State Warriors. He is dealing with a non-COVID related illness, so he shouldn't miss much time if any at all. His absence would mean more minutes for Shake Milton and Tyrese Maxey. Milton is the better option between the […]

Jimmy Butler Might Miss Monday's Game

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (ankle) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Houston Rockets. He sat out of Sunday's contest and it wouldn't be shocking to see Butler out against the tanking Rockets. Bam Adebayo (knee) has already been ruled out alongside Tyler Herro (foot) for Monday's contest. Kendrick Nunn is looking […]

Marcus Smart Could Sit Versus Bulls

Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart (illness) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He is dealing with a non-COVID related illness, so he should be fine to play soon. Both Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum have been removed from the injury report ahead of this game. They'll likely be asked to […]

Jeremy Lamb, Doug McDermott Questionable For Monday

Indiana Pacers guard Jeremy Lamb (knee) and forward Doug McDermott (ankle) are listed as questionable for Monday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Lamb has been banged up seemingly all season long, so this could be a potential rest game for him. McDermott has missed three games in a row, but is still considered day-to-day. […]

Luguentz Dort Won't Play Monday

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Luguentz Dort (hip) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Washington Wizards. It's the second game of a back-to-back set, so it's more of a rest day than anything else. Dort has been playing incredible lately, so he's worth rostering even with rest days. Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk and Ty Jerome […]

Domantas Sabonis, Myles Turner Questionable For Monday

Indiana Pacers forward Domantas Sabonis (back) and center Myles Turner (toe) are listed as questionable for Monday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. It's the second game of a back-to-back set, so it wouldn't be shocking to see the Pacers rest a few veteran players. Losing both players would be a significant blow to the […]

Terrence Ross Won't Play In Tuesday's Contest

Orlando Magic guard Terrence Ross (back) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. It is not a good sign when a player gets ruled out a full day in advance. Although, the Magic don't have much incentive to rush him out there at less than 100 percent. R.J. Hampton and Gary […]

Robert Williams Won't Play Versus Bulls

Boston Celtics center Robert Williams III (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Chicago Bulls. Head coach Brad Stevens recently downplayed Williams injury, but the fact he has been ruled out a full day in advance is alarming. There's a chance he plays either Thursday or Friday, but fantasy managers shouldn't count […]

Rondae Hollis-Jefferson Starting On Sunday

Portland Trail Blazers forward Rondae Hollis-Jefferson will draw the start for Sunday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. This is not too shocking considering Derrick Jones Jr. finished with zero points in 19 minutes last game. It's a nice comeback story, but fantasy managers shouldn't expect much from Hollis-Jefferson. At best, he's a punt-play in DFS […]

Mo Bamba Will Attempt To Play

Orlando Magic center Mo Bamba (hip) will reportedly attempt to play in Sunday's game against the Houston Rockets. He was questionable coming into the game, but is expected to give it a go. He was playing fairly well before the injury and doesn't need a ton of playing time to make an impact. However, he's […]

Hamidou Diallo Likely To Play Monday

Detroit Pistons guard Hamidou Diallo (knee) did not play on Saturday despite being listed as available for the contest. It appears that the medical staff decided Diallo wasn't healthy enough to suit up. Head coach Dwane Casey said after the game that Diallo is still dealing with a lingering knee issue. The hope is that […]

Bulls Want To Extend Daniel Theis

Chicago Bulls center Daniel Theis has certainly made an impression on the team since being acquired at the trade deadline. The veteran center has started each of the last two games. Head coach Billy Donovan is hopeful that the organization is able to extend Theis this offseason. One of the main reasons the Bulls got […]
