Thaddeus Young Won't Play on Friday

Chicago Bulls forward Thaddeus Young (personal) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Golden State Warriors.

Denzel […]

Aron Baynes is Not Expected to Play Saturday

Phoenix Suns center Aron Baynes (calf) is listed as doubtful for Saturday's game against the Houston Rockets. It appears he's going to miss his fourth game in a row due to a calf issue.

Markieff Morris is Questionable for Friday

Detroit Pistons forward Markieff Morris (neck) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers. He suffered a neck injury on Tuesday, but was able to play on Wednesday. However, he didn't play well in that contest and has been downgraded here. Christian Wood would be asked to step up if Morris is […]

LaMarcus Aldridge Will Play Against Kings

San Antonio Spurs forward LaMarcus Aldridge (thigh) will be available for Friday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He's missed the last two games due to left thigh soreness, but will suit up here. Jakob Poeltl and Lonnie Walker IV played very well in Tuesday's contest, but they will see their minutes reduced with Aldridge back […]

Isaiah Thomas Won't Play on Friday

Washington Wizards guard Isaiah Thomas (calf) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Miami Heat. He missed Thursday's game against the 76ers due to a calf issue.

Dwight Powell is Fine for Sunday

Dallas Mavericks center Dwight Powell (arm) was wearing a sleeve on his left arm during practice on Friday. Powell bruised his left arm during Wednesday's game, but the X-rays came back negative. He was playing fantastic during that game, so fantasy owners should take notice. It sounds like Powell will be fine for Sunday's game […]

Mike Conley Goes Through Portions of Practice

Utah Jazz guard Mike Conley (hamstring) was able to go through portions of Friday's practice. He experienced left hamstring tightness on Monday and left the game in the second half. He was not able to play in Wednesday's game against the Lakers. Joe Ingles was given the start, but was unable to do much while […]

Damyean Dotson Was Able to Practice on Friday

New York Knicks guard Damyean Dotson (finger) was able to suit up for Friday's practice.

Moritz Wagner is Available for Thursday

Washington Wizards center Moritz Wagner (ankle) is available for Thursday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He missed Tuesday's game, but the Wizards are in desperate need of help at center.

Danuel House Might Sit Against Raptors

Houston Rockets forward Danuel House (illness) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Toronto Raptors.

Ben McLemore would be in line for another start […]

Marcus Morris Should Return on Thursday

New York Knicks forward Marcus Morris (neck) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Denver Nuggets. Morris missed the last two games due to a neck issue. However, Morris said that he plans to play on Thursday, so hopefully he actually suits up. Kevin Knox would shift back to the bench if Morris […]

Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart (oblique) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He hurt his oblique on Sunday, but missed Wednesday's game due to illness. Head coach Brad Stevens said the team will evaluate his oblique after Smart has recovered from his illness. Brad Wanamaker and Carsen Edwards would be […]

Derrick Favors Might Play Against Suns

New Orleans Pelicans forward Derrick Favors (personal) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Phoenix Suns.

Elfrid Payton Could Return Against Nuggets

New York Knicks guard Elfrid Payton (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He'll likely be limited in this game since it would be his first in over a month. Frank Ntilikina (back) is questionable to play in this game as well. Dennis Smith Jr. could be looking at heavy […]

Frank Ntilikina Might Play Against Nuggets

New York Knicks guard Frank Ntilikina (back) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He missed Monday's game due to a back issue, but has a chance to return here.

Kenrich Williams is Questionable for Thursday

New Orleans Pelicans forward Kenrich Williams (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Phoenix Suns. He's been dealing with an ankle issue and was away from the team on Tuesday due to personal reasons. Williams has been getting less playing time with the Pelicans getting healthy again.

Golden State Warriors guard Jacob Evans (groin) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Chicago Bulls. Head coach Steve Kerr said it's possible that Evans will be out there on Friday. However, it's his first game in over a month, so Evans should be limited if he does suit up. He'll likely see […]

Jordan McRae Undergoes Surgery

Washington Wizards guard Jordan McRae (finger) has been playing with a pin in his finger since late October. He underwent surgery on Thursday to remove the pin from his right finger. He will be re-evaluated in two weeks, so fantasy owners without an IR spot might want to consider dropping McRae. Troy Brown should see […]

Aron Baynes is Doubtful for Thursday

Phoenix Suns center Aron Baynes (calf) is listed as doubtful for Thursday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. He was able to do some work on Wednesday, but didn't end up playing in that contest. Frank Kaminsky was tasked with picking up the slack and played well. He'll be worth a look in DFS contests […]

Brook Lopez Will Return on Wednesday

Milwaukee Bucks center Brook Lopez (back) will return to the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. He missed the last two games due to a back issue, but should be fine now. Robin Lopez should slide back to the bench with his brother ready to return as starter. He could be a […]

Kevin Huerter Will Be on Minutes Limit

Atlanta Hawks guard/forward Kevin Huerter (shoulder) will play in Wednesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He's missed the last 11 games due to a left shoulder issue, but will suit up on Wednesday. However, the Hawks are going to limit Huerter to 15-20 minutes in his first game back. He was a decent fantasy option […]

Ricky Rubio is Fine for Wednesday

Phoenix Suns guard Ricky Rubio (hand) is expected to be fine for Wednesday's game against the Orlando Magic. Head coach Monty Williams said Rubio was "good to go", which means it's safe for fantasy owners to plug him into their lineups. It doesn't sound like Rubio will be limited since the injury was on his […]

De'Andre Hunter Ruled Out for Wednesday

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (finger) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He was downgraded to doubtful on Tuesday and will officially sit out due to a dislocated right finger. Deandre Bembry is going to gain the most fantasy value out of the loss of Hunter. DFS players should take […]

Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart (illness) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Miami Heat. He was listed as doubtful due to an abdominal injury, but he's been ruled out because of illness now.

D'Angelo Russell Will Return on Wednesday

Golden State Warriors guard D'Angelo Russell (thumb) is expected to be back in action for Wednesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. He's missed the last nine games due to a lingering thumb issue. The Warriors should have him on a minutes limit, so Russell won't be a great DFS option here. Alec Burks and Ky […]

Draymond Green Will Play Against Charlotte

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green (rest) will suit up for Wednesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. He'll be back in action after missing one game, so fantasy owners can plug him in their lineups for this one. Eric Paschall, Willie Cauley-Stein and Kevon Looney will all lose some playing time because of this. Paschall […]

Josh Richardson Ruled Out for Thursday

Philadelphia 76ers guard Josh Richardson (hamstring) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Washington Wizards.

Orlando Magic center Mohamed Bamba (rest) is expected to suit up for Wednesday's game against the Phoenix Suns.
