Mike Soroka Not Expected To Pitch Again This Season

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Mike Soroka (Achilles) is unlikely going to take the mound during the 2021 season. Braves manager Brian Snitker hinted that the young righty likely won't take the mound for the Braves this year. He recently underwent a second surgery on his heel and Atlanta currently has no timetable for his return. […]

Stephen Strasburg Will Throw Bullpen Session On Tuesday

Washington Nationals starting pitcher Stephen Strasburg (shoulder) is expected to rejoin the team and throw a 50-55 pitch bullpen session on Tuesday. He pitched well during his rehab start on Sunday, but the team isn't quite ready to get him back into the mix. Obviously, Strasburg has a long history with injuries, so the Nats […]

Huascar Ynoa Will Miss Significant Time

Atlanta Braves pitcher Huascar Ynoa (hand) is expected to miss a couple of months after suffering an injury on Sunday. The young pitcher was having a breakout campaign before fracturing his right hand when he punched the dugout wall. The 22-year-old was playing extremely well, so this is a significant blow to the Braves roster. […]

Luguentz Dort Unsurprisingly Out Against Clippers

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Luguentz Dort (knee, rest) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. He is reportedly dealing with a "knee" injury, but that is just OKC wanting to tank for draft position. Dort has made huge strides this season and the fact Oklahoma City must bench him in […]

Ty Jerome Cleared To Play Versus Clippers

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Ty Jerome (calf) will be available for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. He was listed as questionable coming into this game, but he'll give it a go in the regular season finale. His return will mean less minutes and touches for Theo Maledon who has been playing well recently. […]

Anthony Davis, Alex Caruso Available Sunday

Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (groin) and guard Alex Caruso (foot) are available for Sunday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. This is great news with LeBron James (ankle) back in action as well. The Lakers are finally at full strength, while the Pelicans have nothing to play for in the regular season finale. […]

Terance Mann Available On Sunday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Terance Mann (personal) will be available for Sunday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The young forward will return in a great position with the Clippers resting most of their starters. Both Kawhi Leonard and Nicolas Batum will be sidelined. Mann could be in line for significant playing time, which might […]

Kelly Oubre Jr. Out At Least One Week

Golden State Warriors forward Kelly Oubre Jr. (wrist) is going to be sidelined at least one week, but could miss around 10 days. He has torn ligament and avulsion fracture in his left wrist, so the organization will wait roughly a week before they re-evaluate him. It's uncertain when Oubre will get back on the […]

Khris Middleton Ruled Out Against Bulls

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Chicago Bulls. It appears the Bucks will play it safe here in their final game of the regular season. Middleton is the only player on the Bucks injury report, so they might use a committee approach to fill the void. […]

Khyri Thomas Avoids Major Injury

Houston Rockets forward Khyri Thomas (Achilles) has avoided any major issues, according to head coach Stephen Silas. The organization had Thomas undergo an MRI, but it didn't reveal any severe damage. That is great news for Houston after signing Thomas to a multi-year deal earlier this week. His performance over the last few weeks should […]

Maxi Kleber Won't Play Sunday

Dallas Mavericks forward Maxi Kleber (Achilles) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He was listed as doubtful coming into this game and will officially sit this one out. That being said, Dwight Powell and Willie Cauley-Stein will be asked to play more minutes on Sunday. Neither of them have much […]

James Johnson Will Play Sunday

New Orleans Pelicans forward James Johnson (knee) will suit up for Sunday's matchup against the Los Angeles Lakers. The veteran forward is dealing with a bum knee, but the Pelicans need him with their team being shorthanded. Wesley Iwundu (shoulder) has been ruled out, which means more playing time for Johnson. He's looking like a […]

Kawhi Leonard, Paul George Resting Versus Thunder

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard and guard Paul George will not suit up for Sunday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Clippers are sitting most of their starters in the meaningless regular season finale versus OKC. Reggie Jackson and Luke Kennard should see all the minutes they can handle in this one. Both […]

LeBron James Will Play In Regular Season Finale

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) will suit up for Sunday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans, according to head coach Frank Vogel. This is great news after James played through his ankle issue on Saturday. This is a must-win game for the Lakers if they want to avoid playing Golden State in the […]

Nicolas Batum Resting Against Thunder

Los Angeles Clippers forward Nicolas Batum (rest) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The veteran forward will sit this one out for rest purposes with the playoffs starting next week. His absence won't mean a whole lot to the Clippers rotation. Guys like Daniel Oturu, Patrick Patterson, and possibly […]

Reggie Jackson Doubtful To Play Friday

Los Angeles Clippers guard Reggie Jackson (Achilles) is listed as doubtful for Friday's game against the Houston Rockets. He has been playing well heading into the postseason, so the Clippers will give him the night off here. The Clippers will rest a handful of their players here against the tanking Rockets. Luke Kennard, Rajon Rondo, […]

Brandon Clarke Won't Suit Up Versus Kings

Memphis Grizzlies forward Brandon Clarke (thigh) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He has been playing really well lately, but the Grizzlies will let him rest for this game. He'll likely be back out there for an important matchup against the Golden State Warriors on Sunday. In the meantime, Xavier […]

Monte Morris Removed From Injury Report

Denver Nuggets guard Monte Morris has been removed from the injury report ahead of Friday's game against the Detroit Pistons. He sat out of Thursday's game for rest purposes, but will return here with Aaron Gordon and Facundo Campazzo resting in this one. He should have fairly solid streaming appeal with the Nuggets deciding to […]

Stephen Curry, Andrew Wiggins, Draymond Green Out Friday

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry and forwards Andrew Wiggins and Draymond Green will be sidelined for Friday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. None of these players are dealing with injuries, but Golden State wants to play it safe with the playoffs starting next week. This game is basically meaningless for the Warriors, so […]

Mike Conley Listed As Probable For Friday

Utah Jazz guard Mike Conley (hamstring) has been upgraded to probable for Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He has missed each of the last nine games, but it sounds like Conley is finally ready to get back on the court. Fantasy managers can expect Conley to have a minutes limit upon his return. […]

Dwight Howard Receives One-Game Suspension

Philadelphia 76ers center Dwight Howard has been suspended for one game after receiving his 16th technical foul of the season. Howard got into a heated confrontation with veteran Udonis Haslem during Thursday's game against the Miami Heat. Haslen received a double technical and an ejection, while Howard was served a one-game suspension for his 16th […]

Derrick Rose Likely To Return On Saturday

New York Knicks guard Derrick Rose (ankle) is expected to suit up for Saturday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Head coach Tom Thibodeau hinted that Rose's ankle injury was minor and they gave him a rest day on Thursday. To be fair, Rose played a season-high 39 minutes during Tuesday's game, while suffering an ankle […]

Eric Gordon Likely To Miss Final Two Games

Houston Rockets guard Eric Gordon (groin) is not expected to suit up for the final two games of the regular season. He suffered a groin injury right after the All-Star break and hasn't been able to suit up since then. The team has no incentive to play Gordon at this point, while they tank for […]

Khyri Thomas Signs Multi-Year Deal With Rockets

Houston Rockets forward Khyri Thomas is reportedly signing a multi-year extension with the organization. He signed a 10-day deal with the team last week, but has played his way into their long term plans. Thomas is averaging 16.3 points, 5.0 assists, 3.8 rebounds, 2.3 steals, and 0.8 blocks in 30.8 minutes in four games. It's […]

Maxi Kleber Ruled Out Versus Raptors

Dallas Mavericks forward Maxi Kleber (Achilles) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He had missed four straight games before returning on Tuesday. However, it sounds like the Mavs want to cautious with their young forward here following a back-to-back set on Wednesday. Willie Cauley-Stein and Dwight Powell will be asked […]

Miles Bridges Expected To Return Saturday

Charlotte Hornets forward Miles Bridges is expected to get back on the court for Saturday's game against the Miami Heat. He has missed each of the last four games while following the league's health and safety protocols. The Hornets are quickly falling in the playoff standings and desperately need to win. Bridges return would mean […]

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 […]
