Iman Shumpert Won't Play Sunday

Sacramento Kings guard/forward Iman Shumpert (foot) will not play in Sunday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Shumpert is considered out indefinitely with plantar fasciitis in his left foot. He was traded to the Kings in a three-team trade at the deadline. Shumpert was not doing much when healthy, so do not expect his value to […]

Markieff Morris Questionable on Saturday

Washington Wizards forward/center Markieff Morris (hand) is questionable to play against the Chicago Bulls on Saturday. He injured his hand in Tuesday's game against the Sixers. He was able to play on Thursday, but wore a wrap around his thumb and wrist in that contest. Mike Scott and Jason Smith would see increased playing time […]

Tyler Ulis is Questionable Against Denver

Phoenix Suns point guard Tyler Ulis (back) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Denver Nuggets. Ulis is likely headed towards a game-time decision but has lost most of his value anyway. Elfrid Payton is expected to draw the start for the Suns on Saturday. Ulis will split backup minutes with Josh Gray, assuming he's […]

Tyson Chandler Ruled Out Saturday

Phoenix Suns center Tyson Chandler (neck) has been ruled out of Saturday's game against the Denver Nuggets. It will be his second straight game sidelined, but head coach Jay Triano declined to say who would draw the start at center. Dragan Bender and Marquese Chriss started together in Wednesday's loss to the Spurs. Alex Len […]

Devin Booker Won't Play Saturday

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (hip) has been ruled out of Saturday's game against the Denver Nuggets. Booker was unable to practice on Friday, so it is not surprising to see him sidelined. It will be the third straight game the Suns will be without Booker, but T.J. Warren and Josh Jackson will see increased […]

Jabari Parker Ruled Out Saturday

Milwaukee Bucks forward Jabari Parker (rest) will not play against the Orlando Magic on Saturday. It is the second night of a back-to-back set, so it is not surprising Parker is getting the night off. He's averaging 9.3 points and 2.5 rebounds in 17.8 minutes over his first four games this season. Sterling Brown and […]

John Henson Ruled Out Saturday

Milwaukee Bucks forward/center John Henson (hamstring) has been ruled out of Saturday's game against the Orlando Magic. Henson sat out of Tuesday's game due to hamstring discomfort but returned on Friday against the Heat. Henson played 21 minutes but only managed three points and eight boards. The Bucks are likely just playing it safe and […]

Milos Teodosic Questionable Against Sixers

Los Angeles Clippers guard Milos Teodosic (foot) is questionable for Saturday's contest against the Philadelphia 76ers. He missed Friday's game versus the Pistons, but it was the front end of a back-to-back set. The Clippers have limited Milos since his injury back in October. The Clippers may decide to continue limiting Teodosic until after the […]

Harrison Barnes is Probable on Saturday

Dallas Mavericks forward Harrison Barnes (ankle) is probable for Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Barnes has missed the last two games due to an ankle issue. He is on track to return on Saturday and should be locked into all fantasy lineups. Barnes is averaging 18.4 points, 6.6 rebounds and 1.9 assists in […]

Joel Embiid Questionable on Saturday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (ankle) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. However, this information is from game notes, so owners will need to wait for more reliable information closer to tip-off. Embiid was questionable for Friday's game as well but played 24 minutes in that contest. He has only played […]

Zach LaVine Won't Play Saturday

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (rest) will not play against the Washington Wizards on Saturday. LaVine scored 35 points in the victory over the Timberwolves on Friday. However, the Bulls do not want LaVine playing in back-to-back sets. He's averaging 17.3 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.9 triples through 12 games this season. He […]

Milos Teodosic Questionable on Friday

Los Angeles Clippers guard Milos Teodosic (foot) is questionable for Friday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Owners will need to check back closer to game time for more information on his status. Lou Williams and Avery Bradley will be busy if Milos is forced out of action on Friday. Austin Rivers (foot) is questionable for […]

Austin Rivers is Questionable on Friday

Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Austin Rivers (ankle, heel) is questionable for Friday's game against the Detroit Pistons. He was targeting a Feb. 9 return, so Rivers is on schedule. This is the first time we've seen him tagged with anything other than out, so that is positive. Rivers does not have much fantasy upside with […]

John Henson Will Play Friday

Milwaukee Bucks forward/center John Henson (hamstring) will play against the Miami Heat on Friday. Henson sat out of Tuesday's win over the Knicks, but was able to fully practice on Thursday. He has been playing well this season, but the return of Jabari Parker will hurt his value slightly. Thon Maker will shift back to […]

Jae Crowder Unlikely to Play Friday

Utah Jazz forward Jae Crowder is not expected to play against the Charlotte Hornets on Friday. He was involved in the three-team trade Thursday, and all players must pass their physicals before being eligible to play. Crowder's fantasy value hit rock bottom in Cleveland, so a change in scenery can really only help him. Crowder […]

Dennis Schroder is Probable Against Cavs

Atlanta Hawks point guard Dennis Schroder (back) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Schroder was dealing with a shoulder injury last week but did not miss a game. He is expected to stay in the lineup on Friday, but owners should check back closer to game time just in case. He […]

George Hill, Jordan Clarkson, Rodney Hood Not Expected to Play Friday

Cleveland Cavaliers guards George Hill, Jordan Clarkson and Rodney Hood are not expected to play against the Atlanta Hawks on Friday. The trio is expected to play a significant role once active, but it does not sound like that is going to be on Friday. Hill is worth owning in standard leagues and should see a […]

Devin Harris Ruled Out Friday

Denver Nuggets guard Devin Harris has been ruled out of Friday's game against the Houston Rockets. The Nuggets acquired Harris at the deadline, but he won't be ready to play on Friday. Harris will reportedly meet the team in Phoenix for Saturday's contest versus the Suns. When he does eventually suit up, Harris will play […]

Dwyane Wade Expected to Come Off Bench

Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade will come off the bench in Friday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. The Heat acquired Wade at the deadline, but do not expect his fantasy value to rise much. His homecoming is a great story, but the Heat have plenty of depth at the shooting guard position. Wayne Ellington (shoulder) […]

Wayne Ellington is Probable Versus Bucks

Miami Heat guard/forward Wayne Ellington (shoulder) is probable for Friday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Head coach Erik Spoelstra said Elliington is "somewhere between probable and questionable" for Friday's contest. He did not play on Wednesday, but was able to get up some shots at practice on Thursday. Dwyane Wade and Luke Babbitt were added […]

Kelly Olynyk Ruled Out Friday

Miami Heat forward/center Kelly Olynyk (shoulder) has been ruled out of Friday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. This was expected, as Olynyk did not practice on Thursday and was doubtful heading into Friday. Hassan Whiteside, Bam Adebayo and James Johnson will split up the minutes without Olynyk in the rotation. The Heat do not play […]

Joel Embiid is Questionable on Friday

Philadelphia 76ers forward/center Joel Embiid (ankle) is questionable to play in Friday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. He is dealing with an ankle issue, but Friday also marks the front end of a back-to-back set. Embiid was cleared to play both games this weekend, but the Sixers may decide to take the cautious approach. […]

Eric Gordon is Questionable on Friday

Houston Rockets shooting guard Eric Gordon (back) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Denver Nuggets. Gordon returned from a back injury and played 28 minutes on Tuesday. He sat out on Wednesday after experiencing discomfort in his back, so it is unclear if he'll be able to suit up on Friday. Forward/center […]

Ryan Anderson is Questionable for Friday

Houston Rockets forward/center Ryan Anderson (ankle) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Denver Nuggets. Anderson was a game-time decision for Wednesday's contest against Miami but decided to sit out after experiencing pain during pre-game warmups. Eric Gordon is also listed as questionable for Friday's game. Luc Mbah a Moute, P.J. Tucker and […]

Jameer Nelson and James Ennis Are Questionable Friday

Detroit Pistons point guard Jameer Nelson and guard/forward James Ennis are questionable for Friday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. Both players were acquired prior to Thursday's trade deadline, but it's unclear if they will have their physicals completed by game time. It's unlikely they would see anything more than spot minutes, as neither player […]

Michael Beasley Will Start Thursday

New York Knicks forward Michael Beasley will start against the Toronto Raptors on Thursday. He started the second half of Tuesday's loss to the Milwaukee Bucks. Beasley will replace Kristaps Porzingis (knee) in the starting five. He is expected to see increased minutes and should be a target in DFS on Thursday.

D.J. Augustin Will Start Against Hawks

Orlando Magic point guard D.J. Augustin will draw the start at point guard against the Atlanta Hawks on Thursday. Elfrid Payton has been traded, so head coach Frank Vogel will promote Augustin. Shelvin Mack should see extended minutes as well, but DJA is the best add here. DJA should be added in all 12-team leagues […]

Jonathon Simmons Will Start on Thursday

Orlando Magic guard/forward Jonathon Simmons (ankle) will start against the Atlanta Hawks on Thursday. He was listed as questionable heading into the contest, but was always expected to play. Simmons dropped a career-high 34 points against the Cavs on Tuesday. Elfrid Payton has been traded, which means Simmons should see plenty of chances with the […]

Noah Vonleh Traded to Bulls

The Chicago Bulls have acquired power forward Noah Vonleh and cash from the Portland Trail Blazers in exchange for rights to Milovan Rakovic. Rakovic is just 22 years old but has been on three different organizations already. Vonleh did not see much playing time in Portland, so this move can really only increase his value. […]

Nets Acquire Dante Cunningham At Deadline

The Brooklyn Nets have agreed to a deal that sends guard/forward Rashad Vaughn to New Orleans in exchange for forward Dante Cunningham. Vaughn has been traded for the second time this week but probably won't see much playing time in New Orleans. He won't see enough time on the court to own him in any […]
