Derrick Rose Won't Suit Up On Thursday

New York Knicks guard Derrick Rose has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. This marks the third game in a row that Rose has missed due to what the team is calling medical protocols. Elfrid Payton has seen heavy playing time while Rose is out, so that should continue on Thursday. […]

Jusuf Nurkic Should Return In A Few Weeks

Portland Trail Blazers center Jusuf Nurkic (wrist) believes that he should be able to get back on the court within the next few weeks. "It's kinda finishing up so I need to just make sure I'm not doing shortcuts now because it's almost there... I think a week or two will be just fine," said […]

Jaren Jackson Jr. Remains Sidelined

Memphis Grizzlies forward Jaren Jackson Jr. (knee) will remain sidelined to begin the second half of the season. The organization has not given many updates on Jackson since he underwent left knee surgery. It's uncertain when he'll get back on the court and he'll likely be heavily restricted once he does play. Brandon Clarke, Xavier […]

Derrick White, Rudy Gay Should Play Wednesday

San Antonio Spurs guard Derrick White and forward Rudy Gay are expected to suit up for Wednesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. It sounds like both players have been cleared from quarantine and are active for this contest. However, it wouldn't be shocking to see the Spurs have them somewhat limited on Wednesday. White is […]

Otto Porter Expected To Play Thursday

Chicago Bulls forward Otto Porter (back) is expected to suit up for Thursday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He has not played since the beginning of February, but head coach Billy Donovan sounds confident that Porter is nearing a return. Lauri Markkanen (shoulder) has been practicing as well, so he might play on Thursday. Thaddeus […]

Christian Wood Resumes Basketball Activities

Houston Rockets center Christian Wood (ankle) has resumed basketball activities, but is unlikely to suit up on Thursday. There was hope that Wood could return for the beginning of the second half. Sadly, he continues battling a right ankle sprain, but the fact he is back to practicing is a step in the right direction. […]

Marcus Smart Will Play On Thursday

Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart (calf) will return for Thursday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He has not played in a game since late January, but was expected to return shortly after the All-Star break. The prolonged absence will mean that Smart is going to be limited during his first few games back in the […]

Stephen Curry, Draymond Green Out On Thursday

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (rest) and forward Draymond Green (ankle) have been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Phoenix Suns. Curry will sit this one out with the All-Star break this weekend. Kent Bazemore, Brad Wanamaker and Mychal Mulder will all see increased roles on Thursday. However, Andrew Wiggins is the best […]

Jerami Grant Could Sit Out Thursday

Detroit Pistons forward Jerami Grant (quad) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the New York Knicks. He was held out of Wednesday's game due to a quad contusion, but there is a chance he plays here. Saddiq Bey and Wayne Ellington would be the two best fantasy options, assuming Grant is unable to […]

Derrick Rose, Elfrid Payton Questionable For Thursday

New York Knicks guards Derrick Rose and Elfrid Payton (hamstring) are listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Rose was forced to sit out of Tuesday's game after his COVID-19 test came back inconclusive. It's uncertain if he'll be allowed to suit up for this game. Payton has been sidelined for over […]

Jeremy Lamb Could Rest On Thursday

Indiana Pacers guard Jeremy Lamb (knee) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He played 19 minutes on Wednesday, but could sit out in this one since it's the last game before the All-Star break. His absence would likely mean more playing time for Edmond Sumner. Sadly, Sumner hasn't shown enough […]

Domantas Sabonis Questionable On Thursday

Indiana Pacers forward Domantas Sabonis (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He played 38 minutes on Wednesday despite being tagged as questionable before the game. However, the team might take the cautious approach here with the All-Star break this weekend. Jakarr Sampson and Goga Bitadze would likely split up […]

J.J. Redick Questionable Against Heat

New Orleans Pelicans guard J.J. Redick (illness) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Miami Heat. He scored 22 points on Wednesday, but the team might take the cautious approach with one game left before the All-Star break. Josh Hart and Nickeil Alexander-Walker would benefit from the loss of Redick. Hart is the […]

LaMarcus Aldridge Won't Suit Up Thursday

San Antonio Spurs center LaMarcus Aldridge (illness) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He sat out of Tuesday's game due to an illness and he'll sit out the last game before the All-Star break too. Drew Eubanks and Luka Samanic have seen increased playing time lately. Samanic played well […]

Marcus Morris Doubtful For Thursday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Marcus Morris (head) is listed as doubtful for Thursday's game against the Washington Wizards. He suffered a concussion during Tuesday's game, so it's unlikely that he'll suit up here. Kawhi Leonard (back) is also listed as questionable for this contest. The shorthanded Clippers could have to lean on Lou Williams, Reggie […]

Kawhi Leonard Could Miss Thursday's Contest

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (back) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Washington Wizards. He was a late scratch on Tuesday, so it wouldn't be shocking to see the team hold him out for the final game before the All-Star break. His absence would mean more chances for Lou Williams and […]

Danilo Gallinari Will Start On Wednesday

Atlanta Hawks forward Danilo Gallinari will move into the starting five for Wednesday's game against the Orlando Magic. The absence of Clint Capela (foot) will provide Gallinari with plenty of chances on Wednesday. He is coming off a rough performance during his last outing, but has played well during a majority of the season. He […]

Elfrid Payton Doubtful For Thursday

New York Knicks guard Elfrid Payton (hamstring) is listed as doubtful for Thursday's game against the Detroit Pistons. He has been sidelined for the last week, so it would be surprising to see Payton play right before the All-Star break. Derrick Rose seems to be always tagged as questionable, so Frank Ntilikina could be asked […]

David Nwaba Out At Least Six Weeks

Houston Rockets forward David Nwaba (wrist) is not expected to be back on the court anytime soon. On Wednesday, he underwent right wrist surgery and should be sidelined at least six weeks. That is a crushing blow to a Rockets team that is already missing Eric Gordon (knee) and Danuel House (knee). Fantasy managers should […]

LaMarcus Aldridge Questionable For Thursday

San Antonio Spurs center LaMarcus Aldridge (illness) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The veteran big man missed their last game due to illness and it sounds like he could be sidelined again here. The Spurs are still without Derrick White, Rudy Gay, and Devin Vassell due to the […]

Clint Capela Sitting Out On Wednesday

Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (foot) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Orlando Magic. This isn't shocking news as it sounded like Capela was going to sit out coming into this game. John Collins, Onyeka Okongwu, and Danilo Gallinari will split up the minutes at center. Collins is obviously the best fantasy […]

Luka Doncic Ruled Out On Wednesday

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (back) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. This doesn't appear to be a significant injury, but the Mavs are going to be cautious heading into the All-Star break. Jalen Brunson, Trey Burke, and Tim Hardaway Jr. will be asked to pick up the slack. […]

Jeremy Lamb Downgraded For Wednesday

Indiana Pacers guard Jeremy Lamb (knee) has been downgraded to questionable for Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Head coach Nate Bjorkgren said earlier on Tuesday that he expected Lamb to play, but now he has been tagged as questionable. His absence would mean more minutes for Jakarr Sampson and Aaron Holiday. Neither of them […]

Marcus Smart Could Return Shortly After All-Star Break

Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart (calf) was seen getting in a workout on Tuesday as he continues to work himself back into shape. Head coach Brad Stevens mentioned that Smart will miss the first game coming out of the All-Star break. However, Smart could return shortly after that as he continues making steady progress. The […]

Dario Saric Questionable Versus Lakers

Phoenix Suns forward Dario Saric (ankle) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. He returned from the right ankle sprain on Sunday, but it appears he tweaked it during that contest. He usually only plays minutes in the teens, so there won't be a huge boost for anyone here. Cameron […]

Derrick Rose Won't Suit Up Tuesday

New York Knicks guard Derrick Rose has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. The veteran guard will be sidelined due to the NBA's health and safety protocols. Elfrid Payton (hamstring) remains out, so Immanuel Quickly and Frank Ntilikina will get asked to play a majority of the minutes at point […]

Elfrid Payton Won't Play Tuesday

New York Knicks guard Elfrid Payton (hamstring) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Head coach Tom Thibodeau said Payton is making progress, but isn't quite ready to return yet. Derrick Rose will continue starting in his place and will be a decent streaming option. Immanuel Quickley should get a […]

Bogdan Bogdanovic Returning On Tuesday

Atlanta Hawks guard Bogdan Bogdanovic (knee) is expected to suit up for Tuesday's game against the Miami Heat. He has been out nearly two months due to a right knee avulsion fracture. However, it sounds like he'll be ready to play in this one, but with a minutes limit. The team is going to be […]

Tobias Harris Might Play Wednesday

Philadelphia 76ers forward Tobias Harris (knee) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Utah Jazz. Head coach Doc Rivers is hopeful that Harris can get out there for the last game before the All-Star break. The team is likely going to wait and see how Harris feels during pregame warmups. Mike Scott and […]

Jeremy Lamb Expected To Play Wednesday

Indiana Pacers guard Jeremy Lamb (knee) is expected to suit up for Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers, according to head coach Nate Bjorkgren. It sounds like the team is being cautious since Lamb is dealing with soreness in his surgically-repaired knee. Lamb has been playing slightly above 20 minutes per game this season, but […]
