Russell Westbrook Expected To Suit Up For Game 5

Houston Rockets guard Russell Westbrook (quad) is expected to play in Saturday's Game 5 matchup against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He has been given some extra time to prepare and reportedly looked explosive during Thursday's scrimmage. James Harden and Eric Gordon will lose some value and usage with Westbrook likely returning. There should be more […]

Jimmy Butler Will Not Undergo An MRI

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (shoulder) is battling an injury, but is not expected to undergo an MRI, according to head coach Erik Spoelstra. He is dealing with a soft tissue shoulder injury and was very limited during Game 4. The Heat already swept the Pacers, so he'll get a few days to rest. It's […]

Pacers Have Fired Nate McMillan

Indiana Pacers head coach Nate McMillan has been fired by the organization on Wednesday. This comes as quite a surprise after McMillan received an extension roughly two weeks ago. He lead Indiana to a 183-136 record over the last four years. It's tough to blame him for their early playoff exit. The team was without […]

Russell Westbrook Upgraded To Questionable

Houston Rockets guard Russell Westbrook (quad) is listed as questionable for Game 5 against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday. He was originally listed as out, but it appears that he's making solid progress. The team is likely going to wait and see how he feels in warmups before making the final call. His return […]

Luka Doncic Might Miss Game 6

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday's Game 6 against the Los Angeles Clippers. He was able to battle through the pain during Game 5, but it didn't help that Marcus Morris stepped on his ankle. Doncic managed to play 31 minutes in the blowout loss to the Clippers. Seth […]

Kristaps Porzingis Listed As Questionable For Thursday

Dallas Mavericks center Kristaps Porzingis (knee) is listed as questionable for Thursday's Game 6 matchup versus the Los Angeles Clippers.

Maximilian Kleber and Boban Marjanovic have been asked to step up with […]

Trey Burke Could Sit Out Game 6

Dallas Mavericks guard Trey Burke (ankle) is listed as questionable for Game 6 against the Los Angeles Clippers on Thursday. He has been listed as probable since Game 2, but managed to play on Tuesday. Burke dropped 15 points in 29 minutes during their last contest. He could be a fairly appealing DFS option with […]

Dorian Finney-Smith Questionable For Thursday

Dallas Mavericks forward Dorian Finney-Smith (hip) is listed as questionable for Thursday's Game 6 versus the Los Angeles Clippers. The Mavs are fairly banged up right now, so they could use Finney-Smith on the court. He managed to play through the pain on Tuesday, but didn't play great. He finished with nine points in 27 […]

Kyle Lowry Sits Out Of Wednesday's Practice

Toronto Raptors guard Kyle Lowry (ankle) was unable to suit up for Wednesday's practice. Lowry continues to battle a left ankle sprain and is currently listed as questionable for Thursday's Game 1 matchup versus the Boston Celtics. Fred Vanvleet and Norman Powell would see increased usage and value if Lowry is unable to play. Pascal […]

Aaron Gordon Won't Play In Game 5

Orlando Magic forward Aaron Gordon (hamstring) has been ruled out for Wednesday's Game 5 versus the Milwaukee Bucks. It was unlikely that he was going to suit up anyway after head coach Steve Clifford mentioned Gordon was unable to sprint on Tuesday. Orlando is already down 3-1, so Gordon very well might be out for […]

Anthony Davis Ready For Game 5

Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (back) is ready to play in Wednesday's Game 5 against the Portland Trail Blazers. He left Monday's contest with back spasms, but is good to go for Wednesday, according to head coach Frank Vogel. He'll likely be listed as probable, but fantasy owners shouldn't be concerned about Davis sitting […]

Damian Lillard Set To Undergo Another MRI

Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard (knee) is scheduled to undergo a second MRI on Tuesday. He was forced to exit Monday's contest due to a right knee injury and the first MRI results were inconclusive. Usually, that means there was a lot of swelling, which doesn't look good for his chances of suiting up […]

Dorian Finney-Smith Could Miss Game 5

Dallas Mavericks forward Dorian Finney-Smith (hip) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's Game 5 against the Los Angeles Clippers. He was battling some hip soreness during the seeding games, but it appears that issue has returned. Kristaps Porzingis (knee) is already sidelined for this one, which means Maximilian Kleber could be looking at big minutes […]

Patrick Beverley Listed As Doubtful For Tuesday

Los Angeles Clippers guard Patrick Beverley (calf) is listed as doubtful for Tuesday's Game 5 against the Dallas Mavericks. He has not played since Game 1, so there's a decent chance that he remains sidelined here. That will mean more playing time for Reggie Jackson and Landry Shamet. Neither player is a great fantasy option, […]

Kristaps Porzingis Ruled Out For Game 5

Dallas Mavericks center Kristaps Porzingis (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's Game 5 against the Los Angeles Clippers. He will miss his second straight playoff game due to right knee soreness. It is worth noting that this is not his surgically repaired knee and the MRI came back clean. Maximilian Kleber and Boban Marjanovic […]

Aaron Gordon Listed As Questionable For Game 5

Orlando Magic forward Aaron Gordon (hamstring) is currently listed as questionable for Game 5 against the Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday. Gordon has been unable to sprint up and down the court, which is not a good sign. Orlando also wants to be cautious because it is a hamstring injury and they don't want to rush […]

Kyle Lowry Unable To Practice On Tuesday

Toronto Raptors guard Kyle Lowry (ankle) was unable to suit up for practice on Tuesday. He is currently getting treatment for his sprained right ankle and is listed as day-to-day. The injury didn't appear to be that bad during Monday's game, but the team wants to be cautious. Toronto doesn't play again until Thursday, so […]

Russell Westbrook Not Quite Ready Yet

Houston Rockets guard Russell Westbrook (quad) has been sidelined all series, but remains day-to-day, according to head coach Mike D'Antoni. He is dealing with a strained right quad and it's unclear if he'll suit up for Wednesday's Game 5 against the Oklahoma City Thunder. There should be more information known on Wednesday, so fantasy owners […]

Rajon Rondo Doubtful For Monday's Game

Los Angeles Lakers guard Rajon Rondo (back) is listed as doubtful for Monday's Game 4 against the Portland Trail Blazers. He finally worked his way back from a broken thumb, but is dealing with back spasms now. Rondo was medically cleared for Saturday's game, but ended up sitting out. The Lakers continue to use a […]

Russell Westbrook Listed As Out For Monday

Houston Rockets guard Russell Westbrook (quad) is listed as out for Monday's Game 4 against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Head coach Mike D'Antoni mentioned that Westbrook is improving, but he's not ready to take the court yet. James Harden will continue to see his usage skyrocket through the roof. Eric Gordon and Danuel House have […]

Kyle Lowry Undergoing An MRI

Toronto Raptors guard Kyle Lowry (foot) is scheduled to undergo an MRI on Monday. The team thought it was a left ankle issue, but now believe it's the arch of his left foot. There should be more information available once the results come back. Hopefully everything will be negative and Lowry can suit up for […]

Kristaps Porzingis Set To Undergo An MRI

Dallas Mavericks center Kristaps Porzingis (knee) was a late scratch from Sunday's Game 4 versus the Los Angeles Clippers. He is dealing with right knee soreness, so the Mavs will have Porzingis undergo an MRI. The results should determine whether or not Porzingis will be able to suit up for Game 5 on Tuesday. Maximilian […]

Aaron Gordon Remains Out For Monday

Orlando Magic forward Aaron Gordon (hamstring) has been ruled out for Monday's Game 4 against the Milwaukee Bucks. He has been out all series and it doesn't sound like he'll be back anytime soon. Gordon has been ramping up his activities during practice, but it could be too late for Orlando. Gary Clark is expected […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Expected To Play On Monday

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) is listed as probable for Monday's Game 4 versus the Orlando Magic. He is battling a left calf contusion, but it sounds like a minor issue. There is a good chance that Antetokounmpo is on the court and gets his full workload. Orlando has been unable to slow him […]

George Hill Probable For Game 4

Milwaukee Bucks guard George Hill (hamstring) is listed as probable for Game 4 versus the Orlando Magic on Monday. He is dealing with some left hamstring soreness, but is expected to suit up. It doesn't sound like Hill is going to be limited at all, but he'll remain a risky DFS option anyway. The Bucks […]

Domantas Sabonis Arriving To Orlando

Indiana Pacers forward Domantas Sabonis (foot) is joining the team in Orlando, but isn't expected to play right away. He will have a minimum 4-day quarantine before he can do anything. Sabonis has not done any basketball activities in six weeks. It doesn't sound like Sabonis is close to getting back on the court. The […]

Russell Westbrook Remains Without A Timetable

Houston Rockets guard Russell Westbrook (quad) has been unable to suit up at all during the first three games of the postseason. Head coach Mike D'Antoni mentioned Westbrook is doing better, but remains without a timetable. The Rockets are up 2-1 in the series after losing in overtime on Saturday. They aren't going to rush […]

Gary Harris Upgraded To Doubtful

Denver Nuggets guard Gary Harris (hip) has been upgraded from out to doubtful for Sunday's Game 4 contest versus the Utah Jazz. He has not played at all during the bubble, but continues to make progress. He'd likely be limited if he does play Sunday since he hasn't played in a few weeks. Torrey Craig […]

Patrick Beverley Doubtful For Sunday

Los Angeles Clippers guard Patrick Beverley (calf) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's Game 4 against the Dallas Mavericks. It sounds like Beverley is going to miss his third game in a row due to a left calf issue. Reggie Jackson, Landry Shamet, and Lou Williams will all benefit if Beverley is forced out again. […]

Rajon Rondo Scratched On Saturday

Los Angeles Lakers guard Rajon Rondo (back) was a late scratch from Saturday's Game 3 victory over the Portland Trail Blazers. Rondo has not played during the bubble because he has been rehabbing from a broken thumb. The medical team cleared him for Saturday's game, but he didn't suit up due to back spasms. It […]
