Ish Smith is Doubtful for Wednesday

Detroit Pistons guard Ish Smith (groin) is listed as doubtful for Wednesday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Smith is fighting a right adductor issue and it appears he's going to be sidelined for his third straight game. Jose Calderon should see more minutes coming his way, but he's not a fantasy option.

Aaron Gordon Plans to Play on Wednesday

Orlando Magic forward Aaron Gordon (back) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He was able to practice on Tuesday and said he'd play on Wednesday. Jonathon Simmons would return to the bench if Gordon returns for this contest. Fantasy owners need to check back for more information closer to tip-off.

Garrett Temple is Probable for Wednesday

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Garrett Temple (heel) is listed as probable for Wednesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Temple is dealing with a sore right heel, but should be fine by game time. He's expected to play around 30 minutes and is someone worth adding in deep leagues. Fantasy owners should check back closer to game […]

Kyrie Irving Won't Play on Wednesday

Boston Celtics guard Kyrie Irving (illness) won't play in Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Irving is dealing with flu-like symptoms, so the Celtics have decided to rest him for this one. Terry Rozier will get the start and will be a popular DFS option for Wednesday.

Robin Lopez is Expected to Start on Wednesday

Chicago Bulls center Robin Lopez is expected to remain in the starting five for Wednesday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. Wendell Carter Jr. (thumb) going down has opened up more playing time for Lopez in Chicago. He's not the best option for standard leagues, but could be helpful in deep leagues.

Andre Drummond is Uncertain for Wednesday

Detroit Pistons center Andre Drummond (concussion) was able to participate in shootaround, but is considered a game time call for Wednesday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. He's missed the last two games, but it appears he's headed in the right direction. Zaza Pachulia will return to his normal role off the bench once Drummond […]

Kevin Huerter is Doubtful for Wednesday

Atlanta Hawks guard/forward Kevin Huerter (neck) is listed as doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Chicago Bulls. It appears that Herter is likely headed towards his second straight game on the sideline. Deandre Bembry should remain in the starting five with Huerter unlikely to suit up.

Danilo Gallinari Ruled Out on Wednesday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Danilo Gallinari (back) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Miami Heat. This will be the third straight game that Gallinari has missed due to injury. Patrick Beverley should join the starting five again and could be an interesting option for DFS contests. Tobias Harris will likely be asked […]

Jimmy Butler is Questionable for Wednesday

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Jimmy Butler (wrist) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Butler sat out of Monday's game against the Houston Rockets. However, he went through most of practice on Tuesday which is a good sign. Fantasy owners should check back for an update after shootaround on Wednesday.

Ben Simmons is Questionable for Wednesday

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Ben Simmons (illness) did not practice on Tuesday and is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. There should be an update on Simmons after shootaround on Wednesday. T.J. McConnell could jump into the starting five with Landry Shamet seeing increased minutes off the bench. Fantasy owners should […]

Joel Embiid is Expected to Play on Wednesday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (back) was removed from the injury report and is expected to play in Wednesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Embiid has been playing through a back issue the last three games. It sounds like Embiid will be out there on Wednesday, but fantasy owners should check back before tip-off […]

Al Horford Won't Play on Wednesday

Boston Celtics forward/center Al Horford (rest) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Celtics want to be cautious and rest their veteran center, so Aron Baynes and Robert Williams will be more involved on Wednesday. Horford should be back in action on Saturday.

Lou Williams is Probable for Tuesday

Los Angeles Clippers guard Lou Williams (hamstring) is listed as probable for Tuesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. He's missed the last two games due to a right hamstring issue, but is on track to play on Tuesday. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Patrick Beverley would see reduced playing time if Williams is able to suit up […]

Richaun Holmes Unlikely to Play on Tuesday

Phoenix Suns forward/center Richaun Holmes (foot) is unlikely to play in Tuesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves, according to head coach Igor Kokoskov. Holmes injured his foot on Saturday and was unable to play in Sunday's contest. Deandre Ayton (ankle) has already been ruled out for this contest. Dragan Bender is looking at heavy minutes […]

Kawhi Leonard Won't Play on Tuesday

Toronto Raptors forward Kawhi Leonard (rest) will not suit up for Tuesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. This marks the third straight game that Leonard has missed due to rest. Norman Powell and C.J. Miles will continue to see increased playing time with Leonard sitting out. However, neither player is a great fantasy option for […]

Deandre Ayton Won't Play on Tuesday

Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton (ankle) will not play in Tuesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Dragan Bender will draw the start and he could be a solid DFS option for Tuesday. He scored 12 points with 10 rebounds, two assists and a block in Sunday's contest. There is a good chance Bender sees nearly […]

Maurice Harkless Should Return on Tuesday

Portland Trail Blazers forward Maurice Harkless (knee) has been removed from the injury report and is expected to play on Tuesday against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Harkless is dealing with a left knee issue, but it shouldn't force him out of Tuesday's contest. He's not a great fantasy option, but could help out in some […]

Jeff Teague is Questionable for Tuesday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Jeff Teague (ankle) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Phoenix Suns. Teague is dealing with left ankle inflammation and he's also reportedly dealing with an illness as well. Derrick Rose and Jerryd Bayless would see increased playing time if Teague is unable to suit up. Rose would be a […]

Travis Kelce Held to 23 Yards

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce was held in check by the Patriots defense on Sunday. Kelce caught three of his five targets for 23 yards and a touchdown. The 23 total yards were the second fewest on the season for Kelce. It was an absolutely fantastic season for Kelce. He puts himself as […]

Tyreek Hill Disappoints in AFC Championship

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill was a huge reason why the Chiefs were in the AFC Championship Game, but failed to come through when it mattered most. Hill caught just one of his three targets for 42 yards in the loss to the Patriots. It was a quiet game from Hill, but he […]

Sammy Watkins Explodes Against Patriots

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins was a big reason why the Chiefs were able to stick with the Patriots in Sunday's AFC Championship Game. Watkins caught four of his eight targets for 114 yards, but was unable to find the end zone. Those 114 yards were the most Watkins has produced since joining […]

Damien Williams Plays Huge Role on Sunday

Kansas City Chiefs running back Damien Williams has made a big name for himself in a short period of time. He's quickly become the lead back in Kansas City and continues to play at a top notch level. Williams rushed 10 times for 33 yards and a touchdown in the loss to the Patriots on […]

Patrick Mahomes Throws 3 TDs in Loss

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes was able to put up solid stats, but unable to overcome the rough first half in Sunday's loss to the Patriots. Mahomes finished 16-for-31 with 295 passing yards and three touchdowns with zero interceptions. The Chiefs offense had just 65 passing yards in the first half. The Chiefs played […]

Josh Reynolds Surpasses 70 Yards

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Josh Reynolds was mostly quiet in Sunday's NFC Championship Game, but was able to still make an impact. Reynolds caught four of his seven targets for 74 yards against the Saints. He's the No. 3 receiver on the team, so you can't expect much more out of Reynolds. It was […]

Robert Woods Finishes with Six Receptions

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Robert Woods was not able to find much yardage, but was able to help his team to victory against the Saints. Woods caught six of his 10 targets for 33 yards on Sunday. It was not the best game from Woods, but he was able to make an impact despite […]

Brandin Cooks Goes For 107 Yards

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Brandin Cooks played excellent versus the Saints in the NFC Championship game on Sunday. Cooks caught all seven of his targets for 107 yards, but was unable to find the end zone. He put in work against his former team and was a huge reason why the Rams won that […]

C.J. Anderson Takes On Bigger Role Versus Saints

Los Angeles Rams running back C.J. Anderson took on the role of lead back for the Rams after Todd Gurley was forced to the sideline for most of the game. Anderson rushed 16 times for 44 yards and caught one pass for five yards versus the Saints. He was not able to do much damage, […]

Jared Goff Battles to Victory on Sunday

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff started off slow, but was able to rebound against the Saints on Sunday. Goff finished 25-for-40 for 297 passing yards with a touchdown and interception. Goff wasn't perfect, but he was able to come through for his team when they needed him. He'll now get a chance to battle […]

Kenneth Faried Expected to Play on Monday

Houston Rockets forward/center Kenneth Faried is expected to be available for Monday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. However, the Rockets will need to waive or trade a player before game time. The Rockets are banged up and Faried should be a solid fantasy option in just about every format.

Wendell Carter Jr. Has Surgery

Chicago Bulls forward/center Wendell Carter Jr. (thumb) had successful thumb surgery and will be sidelined the next eight to 12 weeks. Carter can be dropped in basically all formats now. Bobby Portis should benefit the most from the loss of Carter, but Robin Lopez and Jabari Parker will see increased playing time as well.
