Jeremy Lamb Might Play on Friday

Indiana Pacers guard Jeremy Lamb (groin) is listed as a game-time decision for Friday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He's dealing with groin soreness, so we'll see if he actually suits up for this one. Fantasy owners should prepare to be without Lamb on Friday. Justin Holiday and Aaron Holiday would see increased minutes without […]

Brad Wanamaker is Probable for Friday

Boston Celtics guard Brad Wanamaker (ankle) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Detroit Pistons. He saw 26 minutes on Wednesday with Marcus Smart (eye) sidelined. Smart has already been ruled out for Friday and Gordon Hayward (foot) is questionable. Wanamaker could be in the streaming conversation with Smart and possibly Hayward sidelined […]

Gordon Hayward is Questionable Against Pistons

Boston Celtics forward Gordon Hayward (foot) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Marcus Smart (eye) has already been ruled out, so the Celtics could be thin without Hayward as well. Brad Wanamaker (ankle) and Grant Williams would be looking at 25 minutes or more with both players sidelined. However, head […]

Marcus Smart is Ruled Out for Friday

Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart (eye) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Smart continues to deal with an eye infection, but will hopefully be back soon. Gordon Hayward (foot) is questionable for Friday, so the Celtics could be thin for this one. Brad Wanamaker (ankle) and Grant Williams could see […]

Devin Booker is Questionable on Friday

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (forearm) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Booker has been dealing with a forearm contusion, but the Suns desperately need him back with Deandre Ayton (ankle) already ruled out for Friday. Mikal Bridges would be a streaming option once again if Booker sits out. […]

Deandre Ayton is Ruled Out for Friday

Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton (ankle) is ruled out for Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He's dealing with a right ankle sprain, but getting ruled out a full day in advance is a bit alarming. Aron Baynes, Frank Kaminsky, and Dario Saric will be asked to play more minutes. Kaminsky and Baynes are […]

Julius Randle Returns to Practice on Thursday

New York Knicks forward Julius Randle (leg) was a full participant for Thursday's practice. He missed Wednesday's practice due to a sore left leg. However, it appears that was just a rest day and Randle should be fine for Friday's game against the Miami Heat. Fantasy owners should check back on Friday just in case […]

Frank Ntilikina Was Able to Practice on Thursday

New York Knicks guard Frank Ntilikina (illness) was a full participant for Thursday's practice. He missed practice on Wednesday, but it appears he's on track to play in Friday's game against the Miami Heat. Ntilikina has played better since Mike Miller took over heading coaching duties. However, Elfrid Payton is the guard to be owned […]

Delon Wright is Questionable on Friday

Dallas Mavericks guard Delon Wright (finger) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Wright suffered a right pinky sprain during Wednesday's contest. Seth Curry (back) is questionable for Friday as well, so Jalen Brunson could be looking at heavy run. He'd be worth a look as a DFS option on Friday, […]

Seth Curry is Questionable for Friday

Dallas Mavericks guard Seth Curry (back) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He's dealing with lower back tightness, so there's still a chance that he suits up here. Jalen Brunson would see all the minutes he can handle without Curry available. Courtney Lee would likely jump back into the rotation. […]

Christian Wood is Ruled Out for Friday

Detroit Pistons forward Christian Wood (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Boston Celtics. He's scheduled to undergo an MRI on his left knee, but getting ruled out in advance isn't a good sign. Blake Griffin returned on Wednesday without any issues. Wood should be on the waiver wire in all standard […]

Andre Drummond is Listed as Questionable for Wednesday

Detroit Pistons center Andre Drummond (eye) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He's missed the last two games due to an allergic reaction. Head coach Dwane Casey said the Pistons "should be full boat" for Wednesday's matchup against Toronto. It sounds like Drummond is actually closer to probable than questionable, […]

Fred Vanvleet Will Likely Sit Versus Pistons

Toronto Raptors guard Fred Vanvleet (knee) is unlikely to suit up for Wednesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Head coach Nick Nurse said Vanvleet looked better during Tuesday's practice, but we'll see what happens. Norman Powell has been playing very well during Vanvleet's absence. DFS players should be able to rely on Powell once again […]

Nicolas Batum Should Play on Wednesday

Charlotte Hornets forward Nicolas Batum (hand) is probable for Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He's missed the last four games due to left hand discomfort. Michael Kidd-Gilchrist might fall out of the rotation with Batum returning. Batum will be someone worth looking at in deep leagues while PJ Washington (finger) is out.

Julius Randle Sits Out of Practice

New York Knicks forward Julius Randle (leg) did not suit up for Wednesday's practice. He only played 23 minutes during Tuesday's win, but the Knicks don't play again until Friday. Taj Gibson, Bobby Portis, and Mitchell Robinson would be asked to fill the void if Randle misses time. Robinson is the best fantasy option out […]

Frank Ntilikina Doesn't Practice on Wednesday

New York Knicks guard Frank Ntilikina (illness) was unable to suit up for practice on Wednesday. He's dealing with an unknown illness, but will have two days to rest before Friday's game. Elfrid Payton and Dennis Smith Jr. would be asked to split up the minutes if Ntilikina is unable to play on Friday. Payton […]

Mike Conley is Expected to Miss Multiple Games

Utah Jazz guard Mike Conley (hamstring) is going to be sidelined the next few games and could miss weeks of action. He returned from a five game absence on Tuesday, but aggravated his hamstring issue. The Jazz are going to be cautious with their veteran guard, so it wouldn't be surprising to see Conley miss […]

Gordon Hayward is Ruled Out for Wednesday

Boston Celtics forward Gordon Hayward (foot) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. He's dealing with soreness in his left foot, so it's unclear how long he's going to be sidelined. The Celtics are most likely just being cautious here, but fantasy owners should consider Hayward questionable for Friday's contest. Semi […]

Anthony Davis is Hopeful for Thursday

Los Angeles Lakers forward Anthony Davis (ankle) is hopeful that he'll be able to suit up for Thursday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. He didn't suit up for Tuesday's game due to a right ankle sprain. Jared Dudley drew the start, but didn't do much with the extra playing time. JaVale McGee and Dwight Howard […]

Lonzo Ball is Questionable for Wednesday

New Orleans Pelicans guard Lonzo Ball (hip) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Ball played 35 minutes on Tuesday, but could sit out due to a right hip contusion. J.J. Redick (groin) is probable, so Ball is likely going to come off the bench even if he suits up. Fantasy […]

J.J. Redick is Probable for Wednesday

New Orleans Pelicans guard J.J. Redick (groin) is probable for Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He missed Tuesday's game due to left groin soreness, but it sounds like he'll suit up here. He's expected to rejoin the starting five, so Josh Hart is going to lose value with Redick returning. Fantasy owners should check […]

Rui Hachimura is Out At Least Five Games

Washington Wizards forward Rui Hachimura (groin) is going to be sidelined for at least the next five games. He injured his groin during Monday's game and will be re-evaluated once the four game road trip is over. The Wizards are already tanking, so they aren't going to risk the health of Hachimura. Davis Bertans is […]

Nicolas Batum is Upgraded to Questionable

Charlotte Hornets forward Nicolas Batum (hand) has been upgraded to questionable for Tuesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He's missed each of the last three games due to left hand discomfort. He was listed as doubtful on Tuesday, but it appears he's making solid progress. The Hornets are banged up, but Batum isn't going to […]

Kevin Huerter is Expected to Play on Tuesday

Atlanta Hawks guard Kevin Huerter (shoulder) is expected to suit up for Tuesday's game against the New York Knicks. Huerter suffered a left shoulder injury on Sunday, but it doesn't sound like it's going to sideline him. He won't be on a minutes limit, so fantasy owners can feel safe with Huerter in their lineups […]

Marcus Smart is Ruled Out for Wednesday's Game

Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart (eye) won't travel with the team for Wednesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. Smart is going to miss his fourth game in a row due to an eye infection. It began in his left eye, but has reportedly spread into his right eye as well. Brad Wanamaker and Semi Ojeleye […]

Fred Vanvleet is Unlikely to Play on Wednesday

Toronto Raptors guard Fred Vanvleet (knee) is unlikely to suit up for Wednesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. However, Vanvleet did look better in practice on Tuesday, according to head coach Nick Nurse. The Raptors may decide to take the cautious approach which means Vanvleet would miss his fifth straight game. Norman Powell has stepped […]

Paul Millsap is Questionable for Wednesday

Denver Nuggets forward Paul Millsap (quad) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Orlando Magic. He's missed each of the last two games due to a right quad strain. Jerami Grant has started each of those games and could be in line for another start. He's been decent during those starts and could […]

Jabari Parker is Available for Tuesday

Atlanta Hawks forward Jabari Parker (ankle) is available for Tuesday's game against the New York Knicks. He was listed as probable on Monday's injury report, but appears to be over his right ankle sprain. Parker has been playing well, but will lose fantasy value once John Collins (suspension) returns to the court shortly after Christmas.

Joel Embiid Practices on Tuesday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (illness) was able to suit up for Tuesday's practice. Embiid is expected to be available for Wednesday's game against the Miami Heat. He didn't play on Sunday because of an illness, but appears better now. Mike Scott was starting in his place, but will be bumped back to the bench […]

Andre Drummond is Uncertain for Wednesday's Contest

Detroit Pistons center Andre Drummond (eye) is likely going to be a game-time decision for Wednesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He's sat out the last two games because of swelling in his eye from an allergic reaction. Thon Maker has started the last two games, but hasn't been impressive. Markieff Morris and Christian Wood […]
