Christian Wood Remains Out Versus Clippers

Houston Rockets center Christian Wood (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. This is not shocking news since the Rockets are attempting to increase their draft position. They have no incentive to risk Wood's health in a meaningless game. Kelly Olynyk has been playing well lately with Wood missing […]

Brandon Ingram Upgraded To Questionable

New Orleans Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram (ankle) has been upgraded to questionable for Friday's game against the Golden State Warriors. Possibly, the Pelicans are trying to fool everyone? Who knows, because they have no incentive to play anyone who isn't 100 percent healthy. Also, GM David Griffin hinted that Ingram was done for the rest […]

Lonzo Ball Ruled Out Versus Warriors

New Orleans Pelicans guard Lonzo Ball (thumb) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Golden State Warriors. This should shock no one as the Pelicans have no incentive to play anyone at less than 100 percent. Fantasy managers can assume Ball is done for the season. Nickeil Alexander-Walker and Kira Lewis Jr. should […]

Steven Adams Unlikely To Play Friday

New Orleans Pelicans center Steven Adams (toe) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Golden State Warriors. He has missed three straight games and the Pelicans have no incentive to play Adams at less than 100 percent. It would be fairly surprising to see the veteran center actually on the court for this […]

Deandre Ayton Ruled Out Versus Portland

Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He was questionable heading into this game, but it appears the team wants to take the cautious approach here. Head coach Monty Williams hinted that the Suns are likely going to use a committee approach to fill […]

Theo Maledon Removed From Injury Report

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Theo Maledon (foot) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Friday's game against the Utah Jazz. It sounds like Maledon will return, but Luguentz Dort (rest) and Ty Jerome (calf) are expected to be sidelined. That being said, Maledon is likely going to be in for a big game […]

Stephen Curry, Andrew Wiggins Could Rest Friday

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry and forward Andrew Wiggins might sit out of Friday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. It sounds like Curry, Wiggins, and Draymond Green all sat out of Thursday's practice. Head coach Steve Kerr is debating on resting his starters against the banged up Pelicans. Jordan Poole, Kent Bazemore, and […]

Furkan Korkmaz Expected To Play Against Heat

Philadelphia 76ers forward Furkan Korkmaz (ankle) is expected to suit up for Thursday's game against the Miami Heat. He has missed each of the last four games due to a sprained right ankle. Korkmaz was listed as probable on Wednesday, so it sounds like he is finally ready to return. That means, Isaiah Joe would […]

Clint Capela , Bogdan Bogdanovic Questionable For Thursday

Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (knee) and guard Bogdan Bogdanovic (hamstring) are listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Orlando Magic. Capela was able to play 28 minutes on Wednesday, so the team might decide to hold him out of this one. Onyeka Okongwu would likely be asked to start and could have some […]

Danilo Gallinari Listed As Questionable Versus Magic

Atlanta Hawks forward Danilo Gallinari (back) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Orlando Magic. He has been active for all the Hawks back-to-back sets since returning from injury in April. His absence would mean Onyeka Okongwu, Clint Capela, and Nathan Knight would be asked to fill the void. On paper, Capela has […]

Caris LeVert Could Miss Thursday's Game

Indiana Pacers guard Caris Levert (knee) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. He suffered a knee bruise during Tuesday's contest, but he was able to play 40 minutes. The Pacers cannot afford to lose, so it wouldn't be surprising to see LeVert out there. Otherwise, Aaron Holiday (toe) is expected […]

Derrick Rose, Alec Burks Probable For Thursday

New York Knicks guards Derrick Rose (ankle) and Alec Burks (knee) are listed as probable for Thursday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Reggie Bullock (ankle) is expected to return for this contest as well. All three players are originally questionable, but it sounds like they will be available for this contest. Somehow, Bullock has […]

Michael Porter Jr. Resting On Thursday

Denver Nuggets forward Michael Porter Jr. (rest) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. It's the front end of a back-to-back set, so Denver will play it safe with the playoffs starting next week. Shaquille Harrison and Vlatko Cancar will benefit the most without Porter playing on Thursday. Sadly, neither of […]

Monte Morris Won't Play Versus Minnesota

Denver Nuggets guard Monte Morris (rest) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. This is the first game of a back-to-back set, so it's not surprising to see the Nuggets playing it safe here. Markus Howard stands the gain the most value with Morris unavailable for this contest. He'll be a […]

Jonas Valanciunas Listed As Questionable Versus Kings

Memphis Grizzlies center Jonas Valanciunas (back) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Head coach Taylor Jenkins mentioned that he expected this to be a one-game absence when Valanciunas sat out on Tuesday. Despite that, the team is listing him as questionable heading into this game. Xavier Tillman and Brandon Clarke […]

Christian Wood, Danuel House Jr. Out Wednesday

Houston Rockets center Christian Wood (ankle) and forward Danuel House Jr. (ankle) have been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Houston only has two games left on their schedule, so they have no incentive to play anyone at less than 100 percent healthy. Kelly Olynyk should benefit the most from the […]

Robert Williams III Could Miss Some Playoff Action

Boston Celtics center Robert Williams III (toe) did not suit up on Wednesday and is likely to miss the last few regular season games. Head coach Brad Stevens revealed that Williams received a cortisone shot for his turf toe injury, but it didn't help the pain. That is not good news since rest is really […]

J.J. Redick Done For The Rest Of The Regular Season

Dallas Mavericks guard J.J. Redick (heel) will be shut down until the postseason next week. The team is uncertain if he'll be ready to play in the playoffs, but he isn't a huge part of the Mavs rotation. The veteran guard is a nice source of triples off the bench, but won't make or break […]

Alex Caruso Won't Suit Up Wednesday

Los Angeles Lakers guard Alex Caruso (foot) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Houston Rockets. This is not good news for the Lakers, but they likely want to be cautious with the playoffs starting next week. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Talen Horton-Tucker should see increased roles in the rotation. Both are worth a […]

Marcus Smart Out Against Cavs

Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart (calf) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He played 33 minutes on Tuesday, but it sounds like the Celtics are going to play it safe with the playoffs starting next week. He'll join a handful of his teammates on the sideline for this one. Evan […]

Kyrie Irving Might Sit Out Versus Spurs

Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving (face) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. He was elbowed in the face during Tuesday's contest, but left under his own power. James Harden (hamstring) is expected to return here, so he'd be asked to carry the load on offense. Mike James, Landry Shamet […]

LeBron James, Anthony Davis Questionable Wednesday

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) and center Anthony Davis (groin) are listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Houston Rockets. It was reported earlier in the week that James was expected to return here. It's a great spot against the horrendous Rockets defense with Davis banged up. The Lakers want their superstars […]

Kemba Walker Resting Wednesday

Boston Celtics guard Kemba Walker (rest, knee) will miss Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. It's the second game of a back-to-back set, so Boston is sticking with their plan of resting Walker. They don't want his knee issue to flare up before the playoffs, so this isn't shocking move by the team. Payton Pritchard […]

Nassir Little Questionable On Wednesday

Portland Trail Blazers forward Nassir Little (back) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Utah Jazz. He exited after five minutes during Monday's game due to back spasms. The Blazers are probably going to let him rest with the playoffs starting next week. Derrick Jones Jr. should see more minutes coming his way, […]

Alex Caruso Unlikely To Suit Up Wednesday

Los Angeles Lakers guard Alex Caruso (foot) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Houston Rockets. He is dealing with a foot contusion and played only seven minutes during Tuesday's contest. LeBron James (ankle) is expected to return here, so the Lakers might decide to play it safe and rest Caruso. James would […]

Robert Williams III Sitting Out On Wednesday

Boston Celtics center Robert Williams III (toe) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He has now missed both sides of the back-to-back set due to a turf toe issue. The best way to heal this kind of issue is rest, so it wouldn't be surprising to see Williams sitting out […]

J.J. Redick Not Playing Against Pelicans

Dallas Mavericks guard J.J. Redick (heel) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. The veteran guard was only able to play two minutes on Tuesday before he was forced out due to a heel issue. It wouldn't be shocking to see the Mavs have Redick rest until the postseason. Jalen […]

Joe Harris Won't Play Wednesday

Brooklyn Nets guard Joe Harris (hip) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. This marks the first game of the entire season that Harris has missed. The playoffs start next week, so this is likely just the Nets giving Harris a rest day. James Harden (hamstring) is expected to suit […]

Ivica Zubac Will Remain Starting Center

Los Angeles Clippers center Ivica Zubac will remain in the starting five going forward, according to head coach Ty Lue. The young big man took over the starting role when Serge Ibaka (back) went down in March. Ibaka has not played in a game since then and it sounds like he'll come off the bench […]

Joel Embiid Won't Play Against Pacers

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (illness) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Indiana Pacers. The superstar center is dealing with a non-COVID related illness. The Sixers are taking the cautious approach here with the No. 1 seed likely locked up. Dwight Howard should see a significant role in the rotation and could […]
