Nicolas Batum Ruled Out Monday

Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Nicolas Batum (Achilles) has been ruled out of Monday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. An MRI revealed chronic tendinitis in his left Achilles and Batum could be sidelined for multiple games. The Hornets are basically eliminated from the playoff race, so rushing Batum back is unnecessary. Jeremy Lamb is expected to draw […]

Kyle Korver is Questionable on Monday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Kyle Korver (foot) is questionable for Monday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. The injuries continue to pile up for the Cavs, but hopefully Korver can return soon. Korver has been playing well lately and is certainly someone worth adding in most fantasy leagues. It looks like the Cavs are going to be […]

Larry Nance Jr. Ruled Out Monday

Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Larry Nance Jr. (hamstring) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. This will be Nance's third straight game on the sidelines, but hamstring issues due have a tendency to linger. Nance was playing really well before the injury, but Kevin Love (hand) could return as soon as Monday. […]

Kevin Love Could Return on Monday

Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Kevin Love (hand) is questionable for Monday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. The original plan was for Love to return against the Suns on Friday. However, it seems that Love is ahead of his timetable and could actually take the court on Monday. Love might need a few games to shake off […]

Zach LaVine Won't Play on Monday

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's contest against the New York Knicks. LaVine missed Saturday's game due to knee tendinitis. It sounds like he will be sidelined another game due to the same issue. Justin Holiday will likely return to the rotation. However, Holiday is tough to trust in […]

Kris Dunn Won't Play Monday

Chicago Bulls guard Kris Dunn (toe) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the New York Knicks. Head coach Fred Hoiberg said Dunn is dealing with "like a turf-toe type injury." It sounds like Dunn could be sidelined a few more games because this issue could linger. Cameron Payne is actually a solid addition […]

Dante Cunningham Ruled Out on Monday

Brooklyn Nets forward Dante Cunningham (concussion) will not play in Monday's contests versus the Memphis Grizzlies. He took a shot to the head during Friday's loss to the Sixers. He missed Saturday's game versus the Mavs and will sit out of Monday's contest as well. Jahlil Okafor should benefit the most from the loss of […]

Allen Crabbe is Probable on Monday

Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Allen Crabbe (illness) is probable for Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Crabbe has missed two straight games due to illness, but is expected to return on Monday. The Nets are always cautious with injuries, but it was surprising to see Crabbe miss both games of the back-to-back set. Joe Harris has […]

Tyler Zeller is Questionable for Monday

Milwaukee Bucks forward/center Tyler Zeller (back) is questionable for Monday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He did not play on Saturday versus the Atlanta Hawks. This same issue forced him out of action earlier this month. John Henson and Thon Maker have done a solid job covering the center position. Giannis Antetokounmpo will even play […]

Ryan Anderson Expected to Play Sunday

Houston Rockets forward/center Ryan Anderson (hip) is expected to play on Sunday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He returned from a three-week absence on Saturday and played 11 minutes off the bench. He went scoreless with three rebounds, one steal, and one block. Anderson seems to be injury-prone, so the Rockets will likely ease him back […]

Jaylen Brown Could Return Next Week

Boston Celtics guard/forward Jaylen Brown (concussion) will not play in Sunday's contest versus the New Orleans Pelicans. Head coach Brad Stevens said Brown could start progressing in the concussion protocol early next week. There is a small chance he's able to play on Tuesday, but Friday's game versus the Blazers is a better target. Terry […]

Kyrie Irving is Questionable on Sunday

Boston Celtics guard Kyrie Irving (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Irving has missed two straight games and three of his last five contests. The Celtics are in good position for the playoffs, so they can afford to be cautious with Irving. Terry Rozier and Jayson Tatum have been playing […]

Solomon Hill Could Play on Sunday

New Orleans Pelicans guard/forward Solomon Hill (hamstring) could play on Sunday against the Boston Celtics. He's been out for the season, but there is a chance that he suits up against the Celtics. He's been running since December, but he'll obviously have heavy limits if he joins the rotation. Hill won't be an asset in […]

Rajon Rondo Will Start on Sunday

New Orleans Pelicans point guard Rajon Rondo (rest) will start against the Boston Celtics on Sunday. He sat out of Saturday's contest versus the Houston Rockets. It was the front end of a back-to-back set for the Pelicans, so it was not surprising to see them resting their vets like Rondo. DeAndre Liggins and Ian […]

Zach LaVine is Questionable on Saturday

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (knee) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Noah Vonleh (toe) is also questionable for Saturday's contest, according to head coach Fred Hoiberg. LaVine is dealing with tendinitis in his knee and will likely be a game-time decision, according to Vincent Goodwill. Kris Dunn (toe) and Lauri Markkanen […]

Lauri Markkanen Won't Play Against Cavs

Chicago Bulls power forward Lauri Markkanen (back) has been ruled out for Saturday's contest against the Cleveland Cavaliers. This will mark his third straight game on the sidelines. He'll join teammate Kris Dunn (toe) on the sideline, but the Bulls have little incentive to rush them back to the court. The Bulls are playing for […]

Kris Dunn Ruled Out Against Cavs

Chicago Bulls guard Kris Dunn (toe) has been ruled out for Saturday's contest, according to head coach Fred Hoiberg. Dunn suffered the injury during Thursday's victory over the Grizzlies. The X-rays came back negative and Dunn is listed as day-to-day. However, the Bulls are tanking and have little incentive to rush Dunn back onto the […]

Larry Nance Jr. Ruled Out on Saturday

Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Larry Nance Jr. (hamstring) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Chicago Bulls. This is Nance's second straight game on the sidelines, but his injury was originally not considered too serious. However, hamstring issues have a tendency to linger. The Cavs could just be taking the cautious approach against a […]

Rodney Hood Ruled Out on Saturday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Rodney Hood (back) has been ruled out for Saturday's contest against the Chicago Bulls. He returned from a two-game absence on Thursday and struggled heavily during his 18 minutes on the court. Kyle Korver has been outplaying Hood lately, so it would not be surprising to see Korver take away some of […]

Allen Crabbe is Doubtful on Saturday

Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Allen Crabbe (illness) is doubtful for Saturday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. The Nets held out Crabbe from Friday's contest versus the Philadelphia 76ers. It would not be surprising to see Crabbe sidelined again since it's a back-to-back set. Joe Harris logged in 36 minutes during Friday's contest and knocked down three […]

Myles Turner is Hopeful to Play Saturday

Indiana Pacers forward/center Myles Turner (ankle) is hopeful to play against the Washington Wizards on Saturday. Head coach Nate McMillan said Turner suffered a high ankle sprain after Friday's game. He was limited in practice on Friday but reportedly had no limp, which is a good sign. He's listed as questionable for Saturday's contest, but […]

Gary Harris Ruled Out on Saturday

Denver Nuggets guard/forward Gary Harris (knee) has been ruled out of Saturday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He was listed as questionable earlier in the day, but has been officially ruled out for the contest. Harris is dealing with a right knee sprain/strain, according to Gina Mizell. The Nuggets can afford to give Harris the […]

Devin Booker is Questionable Against Warriors

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (hand) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Golden State Warriors. Booker shot an awful three of 18 from the field during Thursday's contest with the Jazz. He still played 34 minutes, but obviously something is bothering him. Elfrid Payton, Shaquille Harrison, Troy Daniels and Josh Jackson would all benefit if Booker sits out […]

Kevin Durant Ruled Out Next Two Weeks

Golden State Warriors forward Kevin Durant (rib) will miss the next two weeks of action. An MRI on Friday revealed an incomplete rib cartilage fracture, and it is a huge blow to fantasy owners and the Warriors organization. Durant will join teammates Stephen Curry (ankle) and Klay Thompson (thumb) on the sidelines. Nick Young and Andre […]

Norman Powell is Doubtful Against Mavs

Toronto Raptors guard/forward Norman Powell (ankle) is doubtful for Friday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. He was listed as doubtful for Thursday's contest versus the Pacers and missed that game. OG Anunoby (ankle) returned on Thursday and will resume his role in the starting five. Powell will lose most of his fantasy value since he […]

Skal Labissiere is Probable Versus Warriors

Sacramento Kings forward/center Skal Labissiere (hip) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Golden State Warriors. He has missed three straight games but was upgraded to probable for Friday's contest. The Kings are playing for draft positioning, so they can afford to hold out Labissiere until he's 100 percent. Zach Randolph and Kosta […]

Allen Crabbe is Questionable Against 76ers

Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Allen Crabbe (illness) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He did not go through practice on Thursday, which is not a good sign. Joe Harris would be the best candidate to start, since it seems head coach Kenny Atkinson likes to put Caris LeVert and Rondae Hollis-Jefferson […]

Kyle Kuzma is Questionable on Friday

Los Angeles Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma (ankle) is questionable versus the Miami Heat on Friday. He rolled his ankle on Tuesday and was forced to miss Wednesday's game against the Warriors. He reportedly could not do much prior to sitting out on Wednesday, so that is not a good sign. Isaiah Thomas started for Kuzma […]

Josh Richardson is Doubtful on Friday

Miami Heat guard/forward Josh Richardson (foot) is doubtful for Friday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. He missed Wednesday's contest and that was his first absence of the season. He was the only Heat player to start every game before this injury occurred. Justise Winslow, Tyler Johnson, and Wayne Ellington will continue to see increased […]

J.J. Barea Expected to Play Friday

Dallas Mavericks guard J.J. Barea (rib) is expected to play on Friday versus the Toronto Raptors, according to head coach Rick Carlisle. He suffered the injury in Tuesday's game against the Knicks. This does not appear to be a serious issue and Barea should be ready to go by game time. Dennis Smith Jr. and […]
