Justise Winslow Might Sit Versus Rockets

Miami Heat forward Justise Winslow (back) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Houston Rockets. Winslow is dealing with lower back stiffness, so it's not something that should sideline him for long. Kendrick Nunn would likely start again if Winslow sits out. Tyler Herro would benefit off the bench as well.

Frank Ntilikina Will Start Once Again

New York Knicks guard Frank Ntilikina will start at point guard for Sunday's game against the Sacramento Kings, according to head coach David Fizdale. Both Dennis Smith Jr. (personal) and Elfrid Payton (hamstring) have been sidelined lately, which has given Ntilikina a chance to earn more minutes. He's worth holding in most formats because he'll […]

Chandler Hutchison Expected to Play Sunday

Chicago Bulls forward Chandler Hutchison (hamstring) plans to suit up for Sunday's game against the Indiana Pacers. He was recently recalled from the G-League, so we'd expect him to have a role in the Bulls rotation. He was dealing with a Grade-3 hamstring strain, but appears to be over that. Fantasy owners can avoid Hutchison […]

Lauri Markkanen Should Be Fine for Sunday

Chicago Bulls forward Lauri Markkanen (side) was able to practice on Saturday and should be fine for Sunday's game. Markkanen only played 25 minutes on Friday and went to the locker room with an unclear left side issue. Thaddeus Young appears to be making a case for more playing time, so that's something to keep […]

Derrick Rose is Questionable Against Nets

Detroit Pistons guard Derrick Rose (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He looked great on Friday versus the Bulls, but apparently tweaked his hamstring. The Pistons are already without Reggie Jackson (back), but will remain cautious with Rose. Tim Frazier and Luke Kennard could be very busy on Saturday.

Reggie Jackson Will Be Sidelined A Month

Detroit Pistons guard Reggie Jackson (back) has been bothered by back soreness since the beginning of the season. After further examination the organization discovered a stress reaction in his lower back. Jackson is expected to miss at least four weeks of action, but it could be longer. Derrick Rose should benefit the most from this, […]

Nerlens Noel Will Start at Center on Saturday

Oklahoma City Thunder center Nerlens Noel (foot) will jump into the starting five and draw the start at center on Saturday. Steven Adams (knee) will miss his second straight contest here. Noel was dealing with a minor foot issue, but is fine to play on Saturday. He'll be a strong DFS option since he'll get […]

Steven Adams Ruled Out on Saturday

Oklahoma City Thunder center Steven Adams (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. This marks the second game in a row that Adams has missed due to a knee contusion. It's hopefully not too serious of an issue and he can get out there next game. Nerlens Noel will […]

Derrick Favors Ruled Out for Saturday

New Orleans Pelicans forward Derrick Favors (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Favors was listed as doubtful going in and hasn't played since October 28. Jahlil Okafor, Jaxson Hayes, and Nicolo Melli will split up the minutes on Saturday. Okafor is looking like a reliable cheap option for […]

Domantas Sabonis Misses Practice on Saturday

Indiana Pacers forward Domantas Sabonis (calf) was unable to suit up for practice on Saturday. Sabonis suffered a left calf contusion during Friday's game, but it appears to be minor. The Pacers desperately need Sabonis to play with Myles Turner (ankle) sidelined right now. Goga Bitadze would see all the minutes he can handle if […]

Zach Collins is Ruled Out for Saturday

Portland Trail Blazers forward/center Zach Collins (shoulder) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He's been sidelined since Sunday and continues to deal with a dislocated shoulder. Skal Labissiere, Mario Hezonja and Anthony Tolliver continue to see increased minutes with the Blazers banged up. Labissiere and Hezonja are worth a look […]

Brandon Clarke Might Sit on Saturday

Memphis Grizzlies center Brandon Clarke (back) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Phoenix Suns. Clarke continues to deal with lingering back soreness, but it hasn't slowed him down. He's averaging 10.5 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 1.5 blocks and 0.8 steals this season. He'll likely see more time as the season continues, […]

Derrick Favors is Doubtful for Saturday

New Orleans Pelicans forward Derrick Favors (hip) is listed as doubtful for Saturday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Favors continues to deal with a nagging knee issue, but hopefully he'll be ready by next week. Jahlil Okafor, Jaxson Hayes, and Nicolo Melli should all benefit without Favors on the court. Okafor will likely benefit […]

Jaylen Brown is Ruled Out on Friday

Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown (illness) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the New York Knicks. Brown will miss his second straight game due to illness, but hopefully he's healthy and able to play next game. Marcus Smart is expected to start, while Semi Ojeleye will see more minutes as well. Smart could […]

Michael Carter-Williams Won't Play Against Bucks

Orlando Magic guard Michael Carter-Williams (hip) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Carter-Williams suffered a left hip contusion during Wednesday's game, so he'll sit this one out. Markelle Fultz will soak up the extra guard minutes off the bench. Fultz could be a decent low cost DFS option or streaming […]

T.J. Leaf Will Start Against Cavs

Indiana Pacers forward TJ Leaf will be the starting power forward for Friday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Myles Turner (ankle) could be out the next two weeks, so Leaf should see a lot more playing time. Leaf hasn't done much during his minimal minutes this season, but we'll see if that changes on Friday. […]

Frank Ntilikina Will Start on Friday

New York Knicks guard Frank Ntilikina will draw the start at point guard for Friday's game against the Boston Celtics. Wayne Ellington will head to the second unit, while RJ Barrett takes over as shooting guard. Dennis Smith Jr. (personal) and Elfrid Payton (hamstring) are both sidelined for this one. Ntilikina should see around 25-30 […]

Tacko Fall Recalled by Celtics on Friday

Boston Celtics center Tacko Fall has been recalled by the organization on Friday. The Celtics are banged up with Robert Williams (hip) and Enes Kanter (knee) both unavailable for Friday's game against the Knicks. Daniel Theis and Grant Williams are basically the only big guys left on the roster. Fall is a nice name, but […]

Nerlens Noel is Questionable on Saturday

Oklahoma City Thunder center Nerlens Noel (foot) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. He started at center for Steven Adams (knee) on Wednesday and played very well during his 28 minutes. However, he suffered a foot injury during that contest and was unable to practice on Friday. Adams remains […]

Steven Adams Could Sit on Saturday

Oklahoma City Thunder center Steven Adams (knee) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Adams suffered a knee contusion on Monday and was unable to play on Wednesday. He's been able to go through some work on Thursday and Friday. Nerlens Noel (foot) would be in line to start, but […]

Will Barton Might Sit on Saturday

Denver Nuggets guard Will Barton (toe) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Orlando Magic. Barton sat out of Thursday's game versus the Pelicans due to left toe inflammation. Michael Porter Jr. made his NBA debut and scored 15 points in 21 minutes. He'll likely fill the void again if Barton is unable […]

Stephen Curry is Out Next Three Months

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (hand) had surgery on his left hand on Friday morning. Curry is going to miss at least three months of action, so that's huge blow to the team and fantasy owners. He's looking at missing at least 41 games and shouldn't be back until around the All-Star break. Eric […]

Harry Giles is Listed as Questionable Versus Jazz

Sacramento Kings center Harry Giles (knee) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Utah Jazz. Nemanja Bjelica, Harrison Barnes, and Trevor Ariza have seen bigger roles since Marvin Bagley (thumb) went down. Richaun Holmes has played well over the last week, so the Kings seem confident in his abilities. The Kings already declined […]

Hassan Whiteside Sits Out of Practice on Friday

Portland Trail Blazers center Hassan Whiteside (knee) was not able to suit up for Friday's practice. Whiteside suffered a minor knee injury during Wednesday's game, but he looked fine in the second half of that contest. It's unclear if Whiteside will suit up for Saturday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Skal Labissiere would see all […]

Dejounte Murray Will Start Thursday

San Antonio Spurs guard Dejounte Murray will stay in the starting five for Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. However, Murray will sit out Friday against the Warriors because the Spurs want to be cautious in back-to-back sets. The team wants to be safe early in the season, but hopefully he won't sit out […]

Cam Reddish Gets the Start on Thursday

Atlanta Hawks guard Cam Reddish will join the starting five for Thursday's game against the Miami Heat. Trae Young (ankle) has been ruled out, so the Hawks are giving their rookie some extended time. However, Reddish hasn't played too well to begin the season and is tough to trust in DFS contests. The Hawks are […]

Kendrick Nunn Will Start on Thursday

Miami Heat guard Kendrick Nunn will jump into the starting five for Thursday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. Justise Winslow (back) has been ruled out, but he shouldn't be sidelined for long. Nunn will have strong DFS appeal while in the starting five on Thursday. He's been reliable this season and isn't showing any signs […]

Trae Young Won't Suit Up Against Heat

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (ankle) won't suit up for Thursday's game against the Miami Heat. The good news is that Young was seen without much of a limp on Thursday. The Hawks don't play again after Thursday until Tuesday, so there's a chance that Young will be ready by then. John Collins is going […]

Justise Winslow May Sit Out on Thursday

Miami Heat forward Justise Winslow (back) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. The Hawks are already banged up, so the Heat may have a good chance to win even without Winslow. Goran Dragic should see an extended role on Thursday, assuming Winslow gets the night off. He'll make for a […]

Will Barton is Questionable for Thursday

Denver Nuggets guard/forward Will Barton (toe) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Barton is dealing with left toe inflammation, but that shouldn't be something that sidelines him for too long. Torrey Craig would likely jump into the starting five if Barton doesn't suit up. Possibly, Michael Porter Jr. would […]
