Deandre Ayton is Doubtful for Tuesday

Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton (ankle) is doubtful for Tuesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. It appears that Ayton is headed towards his sixth straight game on the sideline. However, head coach Igor Kokoskov expects Ayton to be able to return to the court sometime this week. Dragan Bender and Richaun Holme will split […]

Joe Harris is Questionable for Monday

Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Joe Harris (hip) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Boston Celtics. Harris is dealing with right hip soreness, but has been reliable for the Nets this season. The Nets would likely use a committee approach to fill the void without Harris. There aren't really any players that would see […]

Joel Embiid, Jimmy Butler Expected to Play Tuesday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (back) and guard/forward Jimmy Butler (wrist) are expected to play in Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers, according to head coach Brett Brown. Butler missed three games, while Embiid was only forced to sit out of one contest. T.J. McConnell, Corey Brewer, Mike Muscala and Jonah Bolden will see […]

Derrick Jones Out Six Weeks

Miami Heat forward Derrick Jones (knee) has been diagnosed with a pair of bone bruises in his right knee and will be sidelined at least six weeks. He fell during Sunday's contest and needed help getting to the locker room. He's most likely done for fantasy basketball this season, so Wayne Ellington and Dion Waiters […]

Kemba Walker Will Play on Monday

Charlotte Hornets guard Kemba Walker (neck) will play in Monday's game against the New York Knicks. Walker suffered a mild neck strain on Friday and was unable to practice on Sunday. It doesn't appear that this is anything that is going to sideline Walker. Fantasy owners should feel safe using him on Monday.

Draymond Green Will Rest on Monday

Golden State Warriors forward/center Draymond Green (rest) will not play in Monday's game against the Indiana Pacers. It does not appear that Green is injured, but the Warriors just want to play it safe. The Warriors will likely use a committee approach to fill the void, so there is no clear winner. Andre Iguodala could […]

Kyle Anderson Will Start on Monday

Memphis Grizzlies forward Kyle Anderson (ankle) will start in Monday's game against the Denver Nuggets. The Grizzlies are banged up with Omri Casspi (knee) and Garrett Temple (shoulder) sidelined currently. Justin Holiday and Bruno Caboclo could lose some playing time with Anderson back in the rotation. Anderson should be added in just about every format.

Frank Ntilikina Ruled Out on Monday

New York Knicks guard Frank Ntilikina (groin) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. He did not make the trip to Charlotte, but that was expected heading into Monday. Trey Burke and Allonzo Trier will see increased roles and could be players worth adding while the Knicks are banged up at […]

JaMychal Green is Downgraded to Questionable

Memphis Grizzlies forward/center JaMychal Green (knee) has been downgraded from probable to questionable for Monday's game against the Denver Nuggets. Green is dealing with left knee soreness and it wouldn't be surprising to see the Grizzlies be cautious here. Kyle Anderson (ankle) is returning on Monday and Jaren Jackson Jr. should see an increased role […]

Kyrie Irving Won't Play on Monday

Boston Celtics guard Kyrie Irving (hip) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. Irving is dealing with a left hip strain and is considered day-to-day currently. Terry Rozier will draw the start and be a popular DFS option for Monday. Jayson Tatum should see an increase in usage as well.

Danilo Gallinari Ruled Out on Monday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Danilo Gallinari (back) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. Gallinari will miss his sixth straight game and is likely going to be sidelined for Thursday's game against the Lakers as well, according to head coach Doc Rivers. Patrick Beverley will remain in the starting five with […]

Danny Green is Upgraded to Probable

Toronto Raptors guard/forward Danny Green (hand) has been upgraded to probable for Sunday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. His status sounded uncertain on Saturday, but he underwent some testing and is came back clean. Green is dealing with left hand soreness, but it's not his shooting hand. Fantasy owners are fine to plug Green into […]

Lauri Markkanen is Probable for Sunday

Chicago Bulls forward Lauri Markkanen (hip) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Markkanen is dealing with left hip soreness, but it apparently isn't going to force him to the sideline. Fantasy owners should be fine with deploying Markkanen on Sunday.

Richaun Holmes is Questionable for Sunday

Phoenix Suns forward/center Richaun Holmes (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. He was listed as questionable on Friday, but missed his fourth straight game. Deandre Ayton (ankle) is also listed as questionable for this contest, so Dragan Bender would play heavy minutes once again if both of them […]

Danny Green is Uncertain for Sunday

Toronto Raptors guard/forward Danny Green (hand) is uncertain for Sunday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. It sounds like the Raptors are optimistic about Green's left hand, but it's unclear if he'll be able to suit up on Sunday. Fred Vanvleet, Norman Powell, and Delon Wright would gain playing time in his absence.

Chandler Hutchison is Out At Least Two Weeks

Chicago Bulls forward Chandler Hutchison (foot) suffered an acute injury to a sesamoid bone in his right foot and will be in a walking boot for two to four weeks. The Bulls were giving Hutchison starts, but now he'll likely be sidelined until possibly March. Jabari Parker is expected to step into the starting unit, […]

Zach LaVine is Probable for Sunday

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (ankle) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. His status was uncertain on Saturday due to left ankle soreness, but it appears that LaVine is feeling better. However, it doesn't sound like he's playing at 100 percent, so LaVine is a risky DFS option.

Tyler Johnson is Questionable for Sunday

Miami Heat guard Tyler Johnson (calf) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the New York Knicks. Johnson is dealing with left calf soreness, but it sounds like he'll attempt to play through it if possible. Wayne Ellington, Dion Waiters, and Rodney McGruder would gain playing time if Johnson sits out.

Chris Paul Plans to Play on Sunday

Houston Rockets guard Chris Paul (hamstring) says he plans to play in Sunday's game against the Orlando Magic, according to Tim MacMahon. Head coach Mike D'Antoni didn't sound sure about Paul's status on Saturday, but he's likely just being cautious with the veteran guard. It's unclear how much Paul would play on Sunday, so that […]

Kemba Walker Misses Practice on Sunday

Charlotte Hornets guard Kemba Walker (neck) missed practice on Sunday after suffering a mild neck strain on Friday. He left Friday's game after hurting his neck on a loose ball scramble. The Hornets play the Knicks on Monday, so fantasy owners should consider Walker questionable for that contest. Tony Parker and Devonte' Graham would gain […]

Mohamed Bamba is Questionable for Sunday

Orlando Magic center Mohamed Bamba (illness) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Houston Rockets. Head coach Steve Clifford said that Bamba caught an illness after Friday's contest. Khem Birch would see the main backup minutes at center without Bamba available. However, that isn't going to be enough playing time to warrant using him in […]

Chris Paul is Questionable for Sunday

Houston Rockets guard Chris Paul (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Orlando Magic, according to head coach Mike D'Antoni. It appears that Paul is getting very close to returning from his left hamstring strain. The Rockets are going to be careful and if Paul isn't 100 percent then he's likely going to sit. […]

Lauri Markkanen is Questionable for Sunday

Chicago Bulls forward Lauri Markkanen (hip) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Markkanen has played in 26 straight games since returning from this elbow injury. Chandler Hutchison (toe) and Zach LaVine (ankle) are questionable for this contest. The Bulls could be very shorthanded for this game, which would mean Bobby […]

Zach LaVine is Questionable for Sunday

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. This is the same ankle that LaVine sprained earlier in the season, so the Bulls are going to be cautious. Chandler Hutchison (toe) is questionable for Sunday as well, so the Bulls could be shorthanded in this one. Antonio Blakeney, […]

Josh Hart Will Play on Sunday

Los Angeles Lakers guard Josh Hart (knee) is expected to play in Sunday's game against the Phoenix Suns. He was unable to go through contact at practice on Saturday, but will still play on Sunday. Hart should see more minutes coming his way with LeBron James (groin) out and Kyle Kuzma (hip) questionable for this […]

Kyle Kuzma is Questionable on Sunday

Los Angeles Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma (hip) was unable to practice on Saturday and is listed as questionable for Sunday against the Phoenix Suns. Kuzma has been dealing with a hip strain for a week or so, but has been able to play through it. The Lakers may decide to rest Kuzma, but fantasy owners […]

De'Anthony Melton Ruled Out for Sunday

Phoenix Suns guard De'Anthony Melton (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Melton was seen in a walking boot on Friday, so he's likely going to miss multiple games. Elie Okobo played 31 minutes on Friday and should continue to see similar playing time with Melton sidelined. However, Okobo […]

Deandre Ayton is Questionable for Sunday

Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Ayton injured his ankle last Saturday and has missed the last four games because of it. Richaun Holmes (foot) is listed as questionable as well for Sunday. Dragan Bender would see big minutes once again with both Ayton and […]

Spencer Dinwiddie Will Have Surgery

Brooklyn Nets guard Spencer Dinwiddie (thumb) will have surgery to repair torn ligaments in his right thumb, according to Adrian Wojnarowski. Dinwiddie saw two specialists and both recommended surgery. He's expected to miss three to six weeks of action, so he won't be back until maybe some point in late February. Shabazz Napier is going […]

Jimmy Butler Won't Play on Saturday

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Jimmy Butler (wrist) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Denver Nuggets. However, he is expected to return to the lineup for Tuesday's game versus the Lakers, according to Chris Haynes. Corey Brewer and Landry Shamet will see increased playing time with Butler sidelined.
