Anthony Davis Expected to Miss Two Weeks

New Orleans Pelicans forward/center Anthony Davis (finger) is expected to miss one to two weeks of game action. Davis suffered a left index finger sprain during Friday's contest against the Trail Blazers. It looks like Davis is going to miss at least three games, but it could've been much worse. Julius Randle and Nikola Mirotic […]

Allen Crabbe Remains Sidelined on Friday

Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Allen Crabbe (knee) will not play in Friday's game against the Orlando Magic. Crabbe is considered day-to-day due to right knee soreness. However, there has been no word about his improvement, so it's unclear when he's going to return to the lineup. Shabazz Napier will continue to see increased playing time in […]

Brandon Knight Won't Play on Saturday

Houston Rockets guard Brandon Knight (knee) won't play in Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. This will be the fourth straight game that Knight has missed due to left knee soreness. Eric Gordon (knee) is back in the lineup, so Knight lost most of his playing time anyway. He belongs on the waiver wire […]

OG Anunoby Ruled Out on Saturday

Toronto Raptors forward OG Anunoby (personal) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. This marks his third straight game that he's missed due to personal reasons. Norman Powell will see increased playing time and C.J. Miles should get more involved as well on Saturday.

Eric Gordon is Probable for Saturday

Houston Rockets guard Eric Gordon (knee) is probable for Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Gordon returned from an eight game absence on Wednesday and scored 20 points in 21 minutes. He should see his playing time increase as the Rockets ease him back into action. He's going to be a decent DFS option […]

Wesley Matthews is Questionable for Saturday

Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Wesley Matthews (wrist) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Indiana Pacers. The injury bug keeps biting Matthews as he's now dealing with a right wrist sprain. Dorian Finney-Smith and Devin Harris would likely benefit the most if Matthews is unable to play. Fantasy owners should check back on Saturday […]

Stanley Johnson is Probable for Friday

Detroit Pistons forward Stanley Johnson (hamstring) is probable for Friday's game against the Miami Heat. Johnson is dealing with right hamstring soreness, so the Pistons may elect to be cautious and hold him out. Johnson has been awful lately, so he belongs on the waiver wire in all leagues.

Tristan Thompson Ruled Out for Friday

Cleveland Cavaliers center Tristan Thompson (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Utah Jazz. Thompson is dealing with left foot soreness and missed most of December due to a foot issue. Channing Frye and Ante Zizic would soak up extra playing time without Thompson on the court. Zizic could be worth a […]

Ish Smith is Probable on Friday

Detroit Pistons guard Ish Smith (groin) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Miami Heat. Smith returned to the lineup on Monday and scored eight points in 19 minutes. He won't be much of a fantasy option going forward. He can be left on the waiver wire in most formats.

Jon Leuer Ruled Out on Friday

Detroit Pistons forward/center Jon Leuer (illness) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Miami Heat. This isn't an injury that should sideline Leuer for longer than one game. Zaza Pachulia (leg) returned to the rotation on Wednesday and played 15 minutes. He should see a majority of Leuer's minutes on Friday.

Mohamed Bamba Expected to Play on Friday

Orlando Magic center Mohamed Bamba (foot) was able to participate in shootaround and is expected to play in Friday's game against the Brooklyn Nets, according to head coach Steve Clifford. He's missed the last four games, but will return as the backup to Nikola Vucevic. That means Khem Birch will become the third string center […]

Tyler Johnson is Available on Friday

Miami Heat guard Tyler Johnson (illness) is available for Friday's game against the Detroit Pistons. He was listed as questionable on Thursday after missing practice. However, it appears that the illness is not significant enough to hold him out of Friday's contest. Fantasy owners can expect him back in the lineup for Friday.

Josh Richardson is Questionable on Friday

Miami Heat guard/forward Josh Richardson (illness) is questionable for Friday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Richardson has only missed one game this season, so it takes a lot to keep him sidelined. The Heat would likely use a committee approach to fill the void if Richardson is unable to play. Dwyane Wade and Justise Winslow […]

Will Barton Could Sit Out on Thursday

Denver Nuggets guard/forward Will Barton (personal) was excused from shootaround and is questionable for Thursday's game. It's unclear why Barton left shootaround, but there's a chance he's not ready by game time. That would likely mean more minutes for Torrey Craig. Fantasy owners should check back later in the day for an update.

Jamal Crawford is Questionable for Thursday

Phoenix Suns guard Jamal Crawford (knee) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Toronto Raptors. De'Anthony Melton and Elie Okobo would play more if Crawford is forced to the sideline. Devin Booker is back in action, so Crawford is losing playing time anyway. The Suns are likely going to elect using younger players […]

Wendell Carter Jr. Upgraded to Doubtful on Thursday

Chicago Bulls center Wendell Carter Jr. (thumb) has been upgraded from out to doubtful for Thursday's game against the Denver Nuggets. Carter was reportedly able to get through shootaround without any pain. Bobby Portis would likely jump into the starting five if Carter is unable to play. Robin Lopez and Jabari Parker would see increased […]

OG Anunoby Won't Play on Thursday

Toronto Raptors forward OG Anunoby (personal) won't play in Thursday's game against the Phoenix Suns. This marks the second game in a row that Anunoby has missed due to personal reasons. Kawhi Leonard (rest) is out of the lineup as well, so Norman Powell is going to see significant minutes on Thursday. Powell is going […]

Kyle Lowry Will Rest on Thursday

Toronto Raptors guard Kyle Lowry (rest) will not suit up for Thursday's game against the Phoenix Suns. It's the second day of a back-to-back set and Toronto is facing the 11 win Suns, so they can afford to rest their veterans. Fred Vanvleet will draw the start and Delon Wright will see increased playing time […]

Kawhi Leonard Won't Play on Thursday

Toronto Raptors forward Kawhi Leonard (rest) will not play in Thursday's game against the Phoenix Suns. It's a back-to-back contest, so it's not surprising to see Leonard sitting this one out. Leonard has played 81 minutes over the last two games, so he's earned a day off. Norman Powell could be looking at heavy minutes […]

Mitchell Robinson is Available on Thursday

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (groin) will be available for Thursday's game against the Washington Wizards. Robinson was able to fully practice on Wednesday and looked fine at shootaround. Head coach David Fizdale is going to ease Robinson back into things after he missed a month of action. Luke Kornet is going to see […]

Gary Harris is Questionable for Thursday

Denver Nuggets guard Gary Harris (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game. Head coach Mike Malone said he's going to be cautious with Harris, so it'd be surprising to see him out there on Thursday. "I thought he’d be back after a few games, but obviously it’s not where he or our medical staff […]

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Tyson Chandler Should Start Thursday

Los Angeles Lakers guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and center Tyson Chandler are expected to rejoin the starting five once again for Thursday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. KCP and Chandler replaced Josh Hart and JaVale McGee on Tuesday and the Lakers won that contest. Head coach Luke Walton is going to stick with what is […]

Wilson Chandler is Questionable on Thursday

Philadelphia 76ers forward Wilson Chandler (illness) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Indiana Pacers. Chandler missed a few games earlier in the month due to an upper respiratory infection. Joel Embiid (back) is also questionable for this contest, so Amir Johnson and Mike Muscala could be looking at heavy minutes. Fantasy owners should check […]

Joel Embiid is Questionable on Thursday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (back) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Indiana Pacers. It's unclear how Embiid suffered this injury, but it appears minor, so fantasy owners shouldn't have to worry. Mike Muscala would draw the start and play heavy minutes without Embiid. Fantasy owners should check back closer to game […]

Damian Lillard is Questionable for Wednesday

Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard (hand) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Lillard is dealing with a right hand strain and it wouldn't be surprising to see the Blazers play it safe here. Nik Stauskas, Seth Curry, and Wade Baldwin would see more minutes if Lillard is forced to sit out. […]

Rudy Gay, Marco Belinelli Will Play on Wednesday

San Antonio Spurs forward Rudy Gay (hand) and guard/forward Marco Belinelli (knee) will play in Wednesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. Both players reportedly looked fine at shootaround and will suit up for this contest. Dante Cunningham, Quincy Pondexter and Davis Bertans will all lose minutes from these two returning. Gay is not expected to […]

Tim Hardaway Jr. is Questionable on Wednesday

New York Knicks guard/forward Tim Hardaway Jr. (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Washington Wizards. He's been dealing with a sore left hamstring, but had four days to rest up. Damyean Dotson would draw another start if Hardaway is unable to play. Kevin Knox and Emmanuel Mudiay would be asked to […]

George Hill is Probable for Wednesday

Milwaukee Bucks guard George Hill (ribs) is listed as probable for Wednesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Hill has seen a regular role off the bench with Milwaukee, but not enough to warrant owning in standard leagues. He's seeing minutes in the mid-20s, but is only worth considering in deep leagues.

LeBron James Will Miss Next Two Games

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (groin) will miss at least two more games, according to ESPN. He will not travel with the team for their road trip and will miss 13 straight games for the first time in his career. There's a chance he returns after these two games, but that depends on the […]

Eric Gordon Could Play on Wednesday

Houston Rockets guard Eric Gordon (knee) could play in Wednesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He is listed as questionable for this contest, but there should be a better idea after shootaround. He's missed the last eight games, but appears very close to a return. Austin Rivers and Gerald Green will lose minutes and usage […]
