Glenn Robinson III Won't Play Monday

Philadelphia 76ers forward Glenn Robinson III (hip) will not suit up for Monday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. He was originally considered doubtful due to a hip pointer issue. Matisse Thybulle, Alec Burks, and Furkan Korkmaz will be asked to step up in the absence of Robinson. None of them have made much of […]

Dennis Schroder Not Available For Monday's Game

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Dennis Schroder (personal) is currently not with the team and has no timetable for his return. He mentioned back in mid-July that his wife was due in roughly three or four weeks. This is likely the reason that he left the bubble, so it's unclear when he'll be back. He'll have […]

Lance Thomas Joins The Starting Five

Brooklyn Nets forward Lance Thomas will jump into the starting five for Monday's game against the Washington Wizards. He replaced Timothe Luwawu in the starting lineup for Friday's game. Thomas finished with six points, two rebounds, and one assist in 18 minutes. Luwawu dropped a team-high 24 points with four rebounds in 22 minutes on […]

Kemba Walker Getting Increased Playing Time

Boston Celtics guard Kemba Walker (knee) will see his playing time increased to around 17-23 minutes, according to head coach Brad Stevens. He played in 19 minutes during Friday's game, but didn't suffer any setbacks to his bothersome left knee. The Celtics are going to continue to be cautious with Walker going forward. The goal […]

Zion Williamson Likely To Be Limited Monday

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (conditioning) is expected to be under a minutes limit for Monday's game, according to Pelicans VP David Griffin.

Jamal Crawford Listed As Out For Sunday

Brooklyn Nets guard Jamal Crawford (conditioning) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's game against the Washington Wizards. He was listed as questionable, but it doesn't sound like Crawford is in game shape yet. Crawford joined the Nets late and wasn't able to play in the scrimmages or their first seeding game. It's unclear when […]

Gary Harris Listed As Very Questionable For Monday

Denver Nuggets guard Gary Harris (hip) is currently listed as very questionable for Monday's game, according to head coach Mike Malone. He arrived to Orlando late due to a right hip muscle strain. It doesn't sound like he is ready to play yet, but fantasy owners will have to wait and see. Both Torrey Craig […]

Will Barton Expected To Sit Out Monday

Denver Nuggets forward Will Barton (knee) is unlikely to suit up for Monday's game versus the Oklahoma City Thunder. He is currently considered very questionable for next game, according to head coach Mike Malone. Barton was able to play 18 minutes during the final scrimmage game, but didn't look comfortable. Torrey Craig and Michael Porter […]

Jamal Murray Unlikely To Play Monday

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (hamstring) is considered very questionable for Monday's contest against the Oklahoma City Thunder.

P.J. Dozier saw […]

Mike Scott Not Expected To Practice Sunday

Philadelphia 76ers forward Mike Scott (knee) is not expected to suit up for Sunday's practice. He was held out of Saturday's game against the Indiana Pacers due to right knee soreness. His fantasy value is basically gone after Ben Simmons moved from point guard to power forward. Al Horford has been getting in minutes at […]

Pacers Likely To Have Restrictions During Seeding Games

Indiana Pacers guards Victor Oladipo (quad) and Malcolm Brogdon (neck) are both questionable for Saturday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Head coach Nate McMillan mentioned that he'll be monitoring his players during the seeding games. The fact some of the players are banged up means the team isn't going to push them too hard. It […]

Joel Embiid Will Play On Saturday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (calf) is fine and will suit up for Saturday's game against the Indiana Pacers. He skipped the Sixers final exhibition game due to a minor calf issue, but it won't limit him going forward. He should see his normal amount of minutes and be a useful DFS option for Saturday's […]

Malcolm Brogdon Looks Good At Shootaround

Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon (neck) was able to fully participate during Saturday's shootaround. He is currently listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. The team is hopeful that both Brogdon and Victor Oladipo (quad) will be able to suit up for this one. Aaron Holiday, Justin Holiday, and Doug McDermott will […]

Damian Lillard Suffers Minor Injury

Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard (chest) suffered a minor injury during Friday's game, but was able to play through it. He tweaked a muscle that connects his pelvic bone to his abs, but doesn't seem too concerned about it. "I wasn’t going to sit out or nothing," Lillard said. Despite the issue, Lillard played […]

Victor Oladipo Could Sit Out On Saturday

Indiana Pacers guard Victor Oladipo (quad) is expected to go through his pregame routine before making a final decision about Saturday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He was able to go through shootaround and all practices leading up to the restart. The Pacers have been careful with Oladipo due to his injury history. It sounds […]

Monte Morris Starting Versus Heat

Denver Nuggets guard Monte Morris will move into the starting five for Saturday's game against the Miami Heat. Jamal Murray (hamstring) is unavailable, so Morris is expected to see significant playing time, according to head coach Mike Malone. P.J. Dozier will be asked to back him up off the bench. Morris is worth looking at […]

Ja Morant Could See More Action

Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant is expected to be a boost in playing time for the time being, according to head coach Taylor Jenkins. "We anticipate him, hopefully, playing a little bit more than he did during the regular season," says Jenkins. Tyus Jones (knee) is out for at least a week, so Morant will […]

Wesley Iwundu Clears Concussion Protocol

Orlando Magic forward Wesley Iwundu (head) was able to clear concussion protocol in time for Friday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. However, the team has decided to hold him out of this one as a precaution. He should be back for next game, but doesn't have much fantasy value with the Magic fairly healthy. James […]

Aron Baynes Practices On Thursday

Phoenix Suns center Aron Baynes (illness) was able to practice on Thursday without any issues. He is returning from COVID-19, so the team is trying to get his conditioning back up to normal. Head coach Monty Williams mentioned that Baynes was a bit winded after practice, so he doesn't sound like he is in game […]

Danuel House Expected To Start Friday

Houston Rockets forward Danuel House is expected to join the starting five for Friday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. Eric Gordon (ankle) is going to be sidelined roughly two weeks, so House could be looking at five or six starts. House is averaging decent numbers as a starter, but James Harden and Russell Westbrook run […]

Aaron Gordon Should Be Active Friday

Orlando Magic forward Aaron Gordon (groin) was able to practice on Wednesday and is fully expected to play in Friday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He sat out of Monday's exhibition game due to mild groin soreness, but it doesn't sound like something that is going to be sideline him during the restart. Gordon was […]

Jonathan Isaac Remains Questionable For Friday

Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac (knee) remains questionable for Friday's re-opener against the Brooklyn Nets. "I feel like [Isaac] is going to be able to play as of right now," said head coach Steve Clifford. He was able to play seven minutes during Monday's scrimmage. That was the first time that Isaac had taken the […]

Zion Williamson Participates In Shootaround

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson was on the court with his teammates for Thursday's shootaround. However, he remains a game-time decision for Thursday's re-opener versus the Utah Jazz. He could be looking at a minutes restriction assuming he's cleared to play in this one. Nicolo Melli would likely gain the most fantasy value if […]

Alex Len Unlikely To Play Friday

Sacramento Kings center Alex Len (rest) is unlikely going to be ready for Friday's game against the San Antonio Spurs, according to head coach Luke Walton. He was battling COVID-19 and recently joined his teammates in Orlando this week. The team is still attempting to get his conditioning up enough for game action. Honestly, there […]

Harrison Barnes Ready To Go For Friday

Sacramento Kings forward Harrison Barnes will not be limited at all to begin the seeding games. The team feels that Barnes has increased his conditioning enough that he won't be limited for Friday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. He's looking at an increased role in Sacramento after Marvin Bagley (foot) went down. There's a […]

Richaun Holmes Won't Be Limited Friday

Sacramento Kings center Richaun Holmes will not be under a minutes restriction for Friday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. There was some concern that Holmes would be limited after having to quarantine for breaking protocol. He was limited to 18 minutes during the final scrimmage game, but will be let loose for the seeding […]

Patrick Beverley Misses Shootaround

Los Angeles Clippers guard Patrick Beverley (personal) was not able to take part in shootaround ahead of Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. He recently rejoined the team after leaving the bubble to deal with a personal matter. It's unclear if Beverley will be able to play on Thursday. Reggie Jackson would be asked […]

Eric Bledsoe, Pat Connaughton Won't Play Friday

Milwaukee Bucks guards Eric Bledsoe (rest) and Pay Connaughton (rest) won't suit up for Friday's game against the Boston Celtics. Both players arrived late to Orlando due to having COVID-19 and are still working on their conditioning. Connaughton didn't have much of a role in the rotation anyway, so losing him won't change too much. […]

Wesley Iwundu Upgraded To Questionable For Friday

Orlando Magic forward Wesley Iwundu (head) has been upgraded to questionable for Friday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He was originally considered doubtful for the seeding opener due to a concussion. The team is hopeful that he can return to the court, but he'll need to pass the concussion protocol fairly quick. He doesn't have […]

Joel Embiid Returns To Practice

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (calf) was able to take part in Thursday's practice. He was held out of Tuesday's scrimmage due to left calf soreness, but it hopefully won't force him to miss Saturday's contest. The fact he was able to practice on Thursday means he'll likely be fine for the weekend. Otherwise, Al […]
