Blake Griffin Could Miss First Round

Detroit Pistons forward Blake Griffin (knee) is likely going to miss the entire first round of the playoffs, according to Vincent Goodwill. Griffin missed the last game of the regular season and Game 1 versus the Bucks on Sunday. The Pistons are listing Griffin as day-to-day, but it doesn't seem like he's close to being […]

Joel Embiid Will Play in Game 2

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) is available for Game 2 versus the Brooklyn Nets on Monday. Embiid was listed as a game-time call for Monday, but it appears he's healthy enough to give it a go. Jonah Bolden (knee) is active as well, but won't see many minutes with Embiid playing. DFS players can […]

Shaun Livingston is Questionable for Game 2

Golden State Warriors guard Shaun Livingston (knee) is questionable for Game 2 versus the Los Angeles Clippers on Monday. Livingston has been dealing with left knee soreness lately, so the Warriors may elect to rest the veteran guard. Quinn Cook would soak up the extra guard minutes behind Stephen Curry.

Jonah Bolden is Available for Game 2

Philadelphia 76ers center Jonah Bolden (knee) is available for Game 2 versus the Brooklyn Nets on Monday. He was listed as probable earlier due to a left knee issue. Joel Embiid (knee) is questionable, so if Embiid sits then Bolden will see plenty of minutes coming his way. DFS players should stay tuned for updates.

Ed Davis Will Play in Game 2

Brooklyn Nets center Ed Davis (ankle) will play in Monday's Game 2 versus the Philadelphia 76ers. Davis scored 12 points with 16 rebounds in 25 minutes off the bench during Game 1. He also tweaked his ankle, but it doesn't appear to be anything significant. Jared Dudley (calf) has been ruled out, so Rondae Hollis-Jefferson […]

Jared Dudley Ruled Out for Game 2

Brooklyn Nets forward Jared Dudley (calf) has been ruled out for Monday's Game 2 versus the Philadelphia 76ers. Dudley hasn't been a huge factor this season, but played 28 minutes during Game 1. Rondae Hollis-Jefferson, Caris Levert, and Treveon Graham should see more minutes coming their way on Monday. Hollis-Jefferson likely has the most upside […]

Paul George is Available for Game 1

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Paul George (shoulder) is available for Sunday's Game 1 contest versus the Portland Trail Blazers. He was listed as questionable due to right shoulder soreness, but it's not going to be enough to sideline George. DFS players should not expect George to be limited, so he'll be a solid option for […]

Ricky Rubio is Probable for Game 1

Utah Jazz guard Ricky Rubio (quad) is listed as probable for Game 1 versus the Houston Rockets. Raul Neto (ankle) is probable as well after both players were able to go through practice on Saturday. Kyle Korver (knee) remains questionable after only going through part of Saturday's practice. It doesn't sound like Rubio is going […]

Donovan Mitchell, Rudy Gobert Will Play in Game 1

Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell (abdomen) and Rudy Gobert (ankle) are both available for Sunday's Game 1 versus the Houston Rockets. Both Mitchell and Gobert sat out the regular season finale, but that was likely just a precautionary move. It appears both players are fine and ready to play in Game 1. DFS players should […]

Blake Griffin is Questionable for Sunday

Detroit Pistons forward Blake Griffin (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's Game 1 versus the Milwaukee Bucks. Griffin has been dealing with left knee soreness the last few weeks, so that's not good for the Pistons as they roll into the playoffs. Thon Maker would draw the start if Griffin is unable to play. […]

Ed Davis Suffers Sprained Ankle During Game 1

Brooklyn Nets center Ed Davis (ankle) could be in danger of missing Game 2 versus the Philadelphia 76ers. Davis landed awkwardly during Game 1 on Saturday and left to the locker room briefly before returning to the game. He was a great option for the Nets off the bench during Game 1, so having Davis […]

Nikola Mirotic Expected to Play in Game 1

Milwaukee Bucks forward Nikola Mirotic (thumb) is not listed on the injury report for Game 1 versus the Detroit Pistons on Sunday. Head coach Mike Budenholzer expects Mirotic to be fully ready for this series after he was able to practice on Friday. The Bucks have a few players that are banged up, so Mirotic […]

Paul George Remains Questionable on Sunday

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Paul George (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. George was listed as day-to-day with right shoulder soreness and is in danger of missing Game 1 of this series. Markieff Morris would see more minutes coming his way if George sits out. Fantasy owners will […]

Al Horford Will Play on Sunday

Boston Celtics forward/center Al Horford (knee) will play in Game 1 versus the Indiana Pacers on Sunday. Horford has been battling a left knee issue lately, but the Celtics have been smart about limiting Horford's playing time. Fantasy owners should feel confident about Horford's health going into the playoffs.

Blake Griffin Could Miss Game 1

Detroit Pistons forward Blake Griffin (knee) is considered day-to-day, according to head coach Dwane Casey. Griffin has been battling a knee issue the last few weeks, so there is a chance he sits out during Game 1 versus the Milwaukee Bucks on Saturday. Thon Maker would draw the start and see heavy minutes without Griffin.

Paul George is Day-to-Day

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Paul George (shoulder) is reportedly day-to-day and could miss the beginning of their playoff series versus the Portland Trail Blazers. The series begins on Sunday, so there's a chance that George misses the first game. Markieff Morris would see more minutes coming his way if George sits out. More information on […]

Stephen Curry is Expected to Play in Game 1

Golden State Warriors point guard Stephen Curry (foot) was able to practice on Friday and is expected to play in Saturday's Game 1 matchup versus the Los Angeles Clippers. Curry did not play in Wednesday's contest, but that was likely just a precaution after the ankle tweak on Tuesday. DFS players should feel fine with […]

Ricky Rubio is Uncertain for Sunday

Utah Jazz point guard Ricky Rubio (quad) was able to go through part of Friday's practice, but it's uncertain if he'll be able to play in Game 1 versus the Houston Rockets on Sunday. The Jazz have been cautious with Rubio down the stretch of the season, so it's unclear how significant his current quad […]

Jayson Tatum Will Play in Game 1

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (shin) reportedly looked fine during Saturday's practice and will play in Sunday's Game 1 matchup versus the Indiana Pacers. Tatum did miss the last game of the regular season, but that was likely precautionary. Tatum has played well versus the Pacers in the past. DFS players should take a chance […]

Wesley Matthews Will Play on Sunday

Indiana Pacers guard/forward Wesley Matthews (toe) is available for Game 1 against the Boston Celtics on Sunday. Matthews is dealing with a sore right toe, but is healthy enough to suit up for this contest, according to head coach Nate McMillan. However, Matthews probably won't see enough minutes to warrant using in DFS contests. Tyreke […]

Jonah Bolden is Questionable for Game 1

Philadelphia 76ers center Jonah Bolden (knee) is listed as questionable for Game 1 versus the Brooklyn Nets on Saturday. He was able to get in some work during practice on Friday, but it remains unknown if he's healthy enough to play in this contest. Joel Embiid (knee) is a game-time decision, so Greg Monroe and […]

Joel Embiid is Uncertain for Saturday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) is a game-time decision for Saturday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. Embiid reportedly warmed up with a brace on his knee, but it's unclear if he'll play in Game 1 of this series. Boban Marjanovic and Greg Monroe would likely soak up a majority of the minutes at center […]

Klay Thompson is Questionable for Wednesday

Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson (knee) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. The Warriors have the No. 1 seed locked up, so they have no incentive to play Thompson at less than 100 percent. Jacob Evans could be looking at another start. He's a low-end option for DFS contests.

Marvin Williams Will Sit on Wednesday

Charlotte Hornets forward Marvin Williams (foot) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Orlando Magic. Cody Zeller (knee) is sidelined as well, so Frank Kaminsky should see plenty of minutes coming his way. Kaminsky is someone worth looking at in DFS contests with extended minutes.

Thaddeus Young Resting on Wednesday

Indiana Pacers forward Thaddeus Young (rest) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. The Pacers have no incentive to win, and they want to keep their players healthy for the playoffs. Domantas Sabonis (rest) is sitting out as well, so TJ Leaf is likely going to draw the start and could […]

Joel Embiid, Jonah Bolden Out on Wednesday

Philadelphia 76ers centers Joel Embiid (rest) and Jonah Bolden (knee) have been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Chicago Bulls. The Sixers have no incentive to win, so they will be cautious with their players. Boban Marjanovic could see big minutes at the center position, so he should be someone worth looking at in […]

Otto Porter, Zach LaVine Sitting on Wednesday

Chicago Bulls forward Otto Porter (shoulder) and guard Zach LaVine (thigh) have been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Kris Dunn (back) is listed as doubtful, so fantasy owners should expect him to sit as well. The Bulls have no incentive to win, so it's not surprising to see them continue to […]

Blake Griffin is Doubtful on Wednesday

Detroit Pistons forward Blake Griffin (knee) is listed as doubtful for Wednesday's game against the New York Knicks. Griffin is dealing with left knee soreness that he may have aggravated during Tuesday's contest. This is a must-win game for the Pistons, so this is not a rest move by the team. Thon Maker would start […]

C.J. McCollum Will Rest on Wednesday

Portland Trail Blazers guard C.J. McCollum (rest) won't suit up for Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. The Blazers have no incentive to win, so it's not surprising to see them rest McCollum here. The Blazers will use a committee approach to fill the void. Seth Curry and Rodney Hood are likely the two best […]

Mario Hezonja, Kadeem Allen Questionable on Wednesday

New York Knicks guards Mario Hezonja (illness) and Kadeem Allen (concussion) are listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Dennis Smith Jr. (knee) is also questionable for this one, so the Knicks could be thin at guard. John Jenkins or Billy Garrett could be given the start at point guard. Fantasy owners […]
