Michael Kidd-Gilchrist Returns to Practice on Thursday

Charlotte Hornets forward Michael Kidd-Gilchrist (personal) did not play in Wednesday's game due to personal reasons. However, MKG is back at practice on Thursday and expected to play in Friday's game against the Knicks. MKG doesn't have much fantasy value right now besides in deeper leagues.

Kyle O'Quinn is Questionable for Friday

Indiana Pacers forward/center Kyle O'Quinn (illness) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. The Pacers normally don't use O'Quinn when everyone is healthy, so it's unlikely this changes too much. Myles Turner and Domantas Sabonis could see a few more minutes if O'Quinn sits out.

Yogi Ferrell Will See Increased Playing Time

Sacramento Kings guard Yogi Ferrell is expected to see increased playing time, according to head coach Dave Joerger. Ferrell was impressive on Wednesday, he dropped 17 points in 16 minutes off the bench. It's unclear how much more playing time Ferrell will receive, but it's unlikely he sees minutes in the mid-20s. The most likely […]

Allonzo Trier Signs Two-Year Deal With Knicks

New York Knicks guard/forward Allonzo Trier (hamstring) has reportedly signed a two-year deal with the Knicks. Trier's two-way deal was expiring, so the Knicks had to make a decision on his contract. He's averaging 11.3 points, 3.1 rebounds, 1.9 assists this season, so he's not exactly a great fantasy option. Trier could be someone worth […]

DeMarcus Cousins Might Not Play Until January

Golden State Warriors center DeMarcus Cousins (Achilles) might not make his season debut until January or February, according to Greg Papa. "The feeling that I got from being around it last night, DeMarcus is not nearly as close as we think he is," said Papa. The Warriors have not given a timetable for Cousins and […]

Travis Kelce is Elite TE1 for Thursday

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has caught four touchdowns over the last three games. He should continue to succeed versus the Chargers in Week 15. Kelce was held in check versus the Chargers in Week 1. They kept Kelce to just one catch for six yards, but that isn't going to happen again. […]

Chris Conley Should Rebound Versus Chargers

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Chris Conley has seen his fantasy value increase over the last month due to Sammy Watkins (foot) being sidelined. Sadly, Conley only caught two passes for 13 yards last week, but he should rebound against the Chargers on Thursday. The Chiefs basically have no running game with Spencer Ware (hamstring, […]

Tyreek Hill is A Safe WR1 for Thursday

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill (heel, wrist) will play in Thursday's game against the Chargers, according to Adam Schefter. Hill finished with eight receptions for 139 yards in the victory over the Ravens last week. Hill has WR1 value despite playing banged up and on a short week. The Chiefs don't have much […]

Damien Williams Has Fantasy Value in Week 15

Kansas City Chiefs running back Damien Williams is expected to be the lead back for Thursday's game against the Chargers. Spencer Ware (shoulder, hamstring) is doubtful for this contest and most likely is going to sit this one out. The Chiefs will likely use a committee approach to fill the void, but Williams is the […]

Spencer Ware Unlikely to Play on Thursday

Kansas City Chiefs running back Spencer Ware (shoulder, hamstring) was listed as doubtful on Wednesday and his chances of suiting up for Thursday's game versus the Chargers is unlikely. Ware has played well as the lead back and the Chiefs don't want to risk an injury heading into playoff time. Assuming Ware sits, the Chiefs […]

Patrick Mahomes Looks to Continue Touchdown Streak

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes has thrown multiple touchdowns in eight straight games. Both Tyreek Hill and Sammy Watkins are a little banged up, but Mahomes will still obviously have QB1 value. Mahomes has a matchup against the Chargers defense that has allowed the fifth fewest fantasy points to quarterbacks this season, according to […]

Andre Iguodala Won't Play on Wednesday

Golden State Warriors forward Andre Iguodala (hip) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. This will be the second straight game that Iguodala has been sidelined. Alfonzo McKinnie should see an increase in playing time, but probably not enough worth using him in DFS contests.

Mike Conley is Questionable on Wednesday

Memphis Grizzlies point guard Mike Conley (hamstring) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Hamstring issues have a tendency to linger and Conley does have a history with injuries. The Grizzlies may decide to let Conley have the night off to rest. Shelvin Mack would be in line to draw the start […]

Lou Williams Expected to Miss Two Weeks

Los Angeles Clippers guard Lou Williams (hamstring) is expected to miss roughly two weeks of action, according to head coach Doc Rivers. Hamstring issues have a tendency to linger, so Williams could be sidelined longer than two weeks. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Tyrone Wallace, and Milos Teodosic will all see increased playing time with Williams sidelined. SGA […]

Gordon Hayward Ruled Out on Wednesday

Boston Celtics forward Gordon Hayward (illness) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Washington Wizards. Hayward didn't join the Celtics on this trip to Washington, so clearly the illness is serious. Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum will both benefit from the loss of Hayward.

Kyrie Irving Will Play on Wednesday

Boston Celtics guard Kyrie Irving (shoulder) is "okay" and will play in Wednesday's game against the Washington Wizards, according to Jay King. He sat out on Monday, but isn't on the injury report for Wednesday. Terry Rozier would head back to the second unit and lose value and playing time with Irving returning.

Kevin Knox Could Start on Wednesday

New York Knicks forward Kevin Knox could draw the start against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Wednesday. Knox dropped 26 points with 15 rebounds in 41 minutes on Sunday. Mario Hezonja would head to the bench if Knox is given the start for Wednesday's contest. Knox has been inconsistent, but he's hot right now and could […]

Stanley Johnson Could Play on Wednesday

Detroit Pistons forward Stanley Johnson (knee) is listed as probable for Wednesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. He's missed the last three games, but there is a good chance that Johnson is able to return on Wednesday. Johnson should be able to get fairly solid playing time with the Pistons banged up. However, it's difficult […]

Reggie Bullock Upgraded to Questionable

Detroit Pistons guard/forward Reggie Bullock (ankle) has been upgraded from doubtful to questionable for Wednesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. That is a good sign that possibly Bullock might be able to get on the court. Bruce Brown and Luke Kennard would benefit the most if Bullock remains out.

Aron Baynes Could Play on Wednesday

Boston Celtics center Aron Baynes (ankle) could play during Wednesday's game against the Washington Wizards. However, it sounds like if Baynes does play that it would only be limited minutes. He remains questionable on Wednesday after missing the last two games due to an ankle issue. Al Horford (knee) will be watching from the sideline […]

Tyler Johnson is Available on Wednesday

Miami Heat guard Tyler Johnson (hip) is available for Wednesday's game against the Utah Jazz. Johnson missed one game due to a hip issue, but appears fine to play on Wednesday. Goran Dragic (knee) is sidelined, so that means more playing time for Johnson. He's someone worth considering in DFS contests, assuming he draws the […]

Hassan Whiteside Won't Play on Wednesday

Miami Heat center Hassan Whiteside (personal) will miss his fourth straight game on Wednesday due to the birth of his child. However, he is expected to return either Friday or Sunday, so that's good news for fantasy owners. Bam Adebayo will draw the start at center, while Kelly Olynyk gets more playing time with the […]

Goran Dragic Ruled Out on Wednesday

Miami Heat guard Goran Dragic (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Utah Jazz. Dragic just returned from an eight game absence, but apparently he's not ready yet. He'll sit out on Wednesday due to a sore right knee, but hopefully he can return soon. Tyler Johnson and Wayne Ellington will pick […]

James Ennis Will Miss A Week or Two

Houston Rockets guard/forward James Ennis (hamstring) will miss one to two weeks of game action after suffering a right hamstring strain. The Rockets are likely going to be cautious with Ennis since this is his second hamstring injury this season. Eric Gordon should move into the starting lineup while Gerald Green gets more minutes with […]

Lou Williams is Questionable on Tuesday

Los Angeles Clippers guard Lou Williams (hamstring) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. Williams left Monday's game due to a sore right hamstring and was unable to return. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander should get more involved if Williams is unable to play. However, the Clippers will probably use a committee approach to fill the […]

Kawhi Leonard is Expected to Play on Tuesday

Toronto Raptors forward Kawhi Leonard (rest) is expected to play in Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. Assistant coach Adrian Griffin said to his best knowledge that Leonard would play on Tuesday. The Raptors play a back-to-back set on Tuesday and Wednesday, so Leonard is expected to sit out during one of them. Fantasy […]

Jamal Crawford is Questionable for Tuesday

Phoenix Suns guard Jamal Crawford (knee) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. This is the second game of a back-to-back set, so the Suns won't have a shootaround on Tuesday. Josh Jackson and Troy Daniels will see increased playing time, assuming Crawford sits out. Jackson is looking like a […]

Devin Booker Ruled Out for Tuesday

Phoenix Suns shooting guard Devin Booker (hamstring) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Booker does not appear close to returning and hasn't even practiced lately. Fantasy owners must stay patient with Booker while he recovers from this hamstring issue. De'Anthony Melton should draw another start on Tuesday, while Josh […]

Tristan Thompson Will Miss Two to Four Weeks

Cleveland Cavaliers center Tristan Thompson (foot) is expected to miss two to four weeks after suffering a sprained left foot. Thompson suffered the injury during Monday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks and he was unable to return. It's a real shame because Thompson was having a fantastic season. Larry Nance should benefit the most from […]

John Wall is Uncertain for Wednesday

Washington Wizards point guard John Wall (heel) will likely be a game-time decision for Wednesday's game against the Boston Celtics. Head coach Scott Brooks said Wall was able to get up some shots and took part in the team's walkthrough on Tuesday. Austin Rivers and Tomas Satoransky will continue seeing increased playing time until Wall […]
