Darius Garland Ruled Out Against Blazers

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Darius Garland (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He continues to deal with a sprained ankle that is still swollen, so he could miss another game or two. Cedi Osman and Isaac Okoro have been asked to step up without Garland available. Okoro is coming […]

Jerami Grant Expected To Return On Saturday

Detroit Pistons forward Jerami Grant (knee) plans to return for Saturday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. That means, Grant won't suit up for Thursday's contest, but at least he is returning for the last few games of the season. It's uncertain why the Pistons would even bother bringing him back for meaningless games. Nonetheless, he'll […]

Zach LaVine Intends To Play Thursday

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine said that he intends to play Thursday against the Charlotte Hornets. He has missed 11 straight games while following the NBA's health and safety protocols. The Bulls desperately need LaVine back if they want to make a push at the playoffs. Coby White might want end up being the biggest […]

Jae Crowder Won't Play Against Hawks

Phoenix Suns forward Jae Crowder (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. This marks the eighth game in a row that Crowder has missed with a sprained right ankle. Cameron Johnson and Torrey Craig will be asked to pick up the slack. Craig has been playing well recently and could […]

Jaren Jackson Jr. Resting On Wednesday

Memphis Grizzlies forward Jaren Jackson Jr. (rest) will not suit up for Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. It's the front end of a back-to-back set, so the Grizzlies will take the cautious approach here. It sounds like he'll be available for Thursday's game. In the meantime, Brandon Clarke and Xavier Tillman will see more […]

Tristan Thompson Questionable Against Magic

Boston Celtics center Tristan Thompson (pectoral) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Orlando Magic. He recently moved into the starting five, but that stint could be short lived. His absence would mean an immediate boost for Robert Williams. He'd see all the minutes he can handle at center, which would make him […]

Norman Powell Might Sit Versus Lakers

Toronto Raptors forward Norman Powell (knee) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. He is dealing with right knee patellar tendinopathy, so basically the best thing for Powell is to rest. The Blazers do need to win for seeding purposes, so there is incentive to get him out on the […]

D.J. Augustin Could Miss Wednesday's Game

Houston Rockets guard D.J. Augustin (ankle) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. It wouldn't be surprising to see the Rockets rest the veteran guard here. They aren't playing for much, so they have no incentive to play their veterans throughout the rest of the season. Kevin Porter Jr. has looked […]

Nerlens Noel Might Sit Against Nuggets

New York Knicks center Nerlens Noel (ankle) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He has been banged up lately, but the Knicks could certainly use Noel in this one. The team will likely wait until after shootaround before making a final decision. Taj Gibson could become an interesting streaming choice […]

Malcolm Brogdon, Edmond Sumner Questionable For Wednesday

Indiana Pacers guards Malcolm Brogdon (hamstring) and Edmond Sumner (knee) are listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Brogdon has missed the last two games, so it wouldn't be shocking to see him miss another contest. Sumner suffered an injury on Sunday and it bothered him during Monday's game as well. T.J. […]

Bismack Biyombo Moves Into Starting Five

Charlotte Hornets center Bismack Biyombo will move into the starting five for Tuesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. The Hornets are shorthanded here with P.J. Washington (personal) and Miles Bridges (protocols) ruled out. He should see plenty of minutes, but Cody Zeller will be involved as well. Neither of them are reliable enough options to […]

Devonte' Graham, Cody Martin Ruled Out For Tuesday

Charlotte Hornets guards Devonte' Graham (knee) and Cody Martin (ankle) have been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. It's uncertain why Graham is out after playing 24 minutes on Sunday. Possibly, the Hornets are giving him a rest day against the tanking Pistons. Martin was getting minutes in the 20s, so Malik […]

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 […]
