Lauri Markkanen Ruled Out Wednesday

Chicago Bulls forward/center Lauri Markkanen (personal) has been ruled out of Wednesday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He missed practice both on Monday and Tuesday this week, but the only details available are that it's an excused absence. Nikola Mirotic (leg) also missed practice and has been the subject to multiple trade rumors. Bobby […]

Mason Plumlee Ruled Out Tuesday

Denver Nuggets forward/center Mason Plumlee (calf) has been ruled out of Tuesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. He was using crutches in the locker room and is currently not traveling with the team. He'll have an MRI on Tuesday, but he's likely looking at a multiple-game absence. He can be dropped in standard leagues […]

Fred VanVleet Uncertain for Tuesday

Toronto Raptors point guard Fred VanVleet (personal) is uncertain for Tuesday's contest against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He did not attend shootaround and is with his family following the birth of his daughter on Sunday. Delon Wright would see increased minutes off the bench if VanVleet does not play Tuesday. Norman Powell is expected to see […]

Chris Paul Hopeful to Play Tuesday

Houston Rockets point guard Chris Paul (groin) is hopeful to play against the Orlando Magic on Tuesday, according to head coach Mike D'Antoni. Paul played in just 27 minutes of Sunday's victory over Phoenix. He left in the fourth quarter, but Paul said he was "fine" after the game. The team wants to be careful […]

Blake Griffin, Brice Johnson, Willie Reed Won't Play Tuesday

Detroit Pistons forward/center Blake Griffin, Brice Johnson and Willie Reed will not play against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Tuesday. According to head coach Stan Van Gundy, the trio is questionable for Thursday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. They were brought to Detroit in a blockbuster trade on Monday night. They still need to complete their physicals […]

Wilson Chandler is Probable on Tuesday

Denver Nuggets guard/forward Wilson Chandler (illness) is probable to play against the San Antonio Spurs on Tuesday. He did not play in Monday's loss to the Boston Celtics but appears to be on track to return on Tuesday. Will Barton logged 41 minutes on Monday but will see a reduced role if Chandler is back […]

Joel Embiid Ruled Out Against Bucks

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (rest) will not suit up against the Milwaukee Bucks on Monday. It's the second game of a back-to-back set, so Embiid will rest like usual. He logged in 36 minutes on Monday, and the medical staff will not clear him to play on Monday. However, Embiid is expected to play […]

Tyreke Evans is Questionable on Monday

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Tyreke Evans (illness) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He's missed the last two games but was able to go through a full practice on Sunday. Evans sounded optimistic that he'd be able to return on Monday. Owners will likely need to wait until closer to tip-off […]

Terry Rozier is Questionable on Monday

Boston Celtics guard Terry Rozier (ankle) is questionable for Monday's game against the Denver Nuggets. The Celtics recalled Kadeem Allen from the G-League to add extra depth. Marcus Smart (hand) is expected to miss multiple weeks, so Rozier actually has fantasy value right now. Shane Larkin would see increased minutes if Rozier is unable to […]

Malcolm Brogdon is Questionable Against Sixers

Milwaukee Bucks guard Malcolm Brogdon (calf) is questionable to play against the Philadelphia 76ers on Monday. This comes from the game notes, so more reliable information will likely have to wait until closer to game time. Brogdon has missed the last two games but does have plenty of value when healthy. Tony Snell and Sterling […]

Chris Paul is Questionable for Tuesday

Houston Rockets point guard Chris Paul (groin) is listed as questionable to play against the Orlando Magic on Tuesday. This does not sound too serious, and Paul said he was "good" after exiting early in Sunday's victory over Phoenix. The Rockets may decide to be cautious with the veteran point guard. It should be an […]

Alex Len Questionable Against Memphis

Phoenix Suns forward/center Alex Len (ankle) is questionable to play against the Memphis Grizzlies on Monday. Len has yet to practice and has missed three straight games with a lingering ankle issue. Most likely Len will be on the sidelines once again on Monday. Greg Monroe and Dragan Bender would see an increase in playing […]

Troy Daniels is Questionable on Monday

Phoenix Suns guard Troy Daniels (back) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Daniels went 1-for-4 from the field on Sunday and just did not look quite right. The Suns may decide to be cautious with Daniels in the second game of a back-to-back set. Josh Jackson or Isaiah Canaan would […]

Wilson Chandler Downgraded to Questionable on Monday

Denver Nuggets guard/forward Wilson Chandler (illness) has been downgraded from probable to questionable for Monday's contest against the Boston Celtics. He did not participate in Monday's shootaround, and it appears he could be in danger of missing this contest. Chandler has not been a reliable fantasy option lately, but he does see plenty of minutes. […]

Marquese Chriss is Questionable Against Memphis

Phoenix Suns forward/center Marquese Chriss (ankle) is listed as questionable for Monday's contest against the Memphis Grizzlies. He appeared to tweak his ankle near the end of Sunday's loss to the Houston Rockets. It would not be too surprising to see Chriss sit out the second game of a back-to-back set. Dragan Bender could join […]

Devin Booker is Questionable on Monday

Phoenix Suns shooting guard Devin Booker (ribs) is questionable for Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Booker played 41 minutes in Sunday's loss but did not look quite right after the contest. It would not be too surprising if Booker got the night off on Monday. Tyler Ulis could be looking at joining the starting […]

J.J. Barea Won't Play on Monday

Dallas Mavericks guard J.J. Barea (oblique) won't play against the Miami Heat on Monday. He will be forced to miss his second game in a row, but is listed as day-to-day. There is a chance the Mavs get Devin Harris (personal) back on Monday. Harris does not offer much to owners from a fantasy aspect. […]

Devin Harris Questionable on Monday

Dallas Mavericks guard Devin Harris (personal) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Miami Heat. He is no longer on the injury report for a concussion, but it's unclear if he'll play against Miami. He was at shootaround on Monday, so he'll most likely be back in the rotation. Harris only sees minutes […]

Willie Cauley-Stein Ruled Out Next Two Games

Sacramento Kings forward/center Willie Cauley-Stein (knee) has been ruled out the next two games. He injured his knee in Thursday's contest and the MRI showed a deep bone bruise. Skal Labissiere (shoulder) is expected to see increased playing time if he's healthy enough to play. Zach Randolph and Kosta Koufos should see increased minutes and […]

Michael Carter-Williams Questionable for Monday

Charlotte Hornets guard Michael Carter-Williams (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Indiana Pacers. He sat out of Saturday's game versus the Miami Heat. Malik Monk took over as backup point guard but only played seven minutes. Kemba Walker played 41 minutes and will likely do it again if MCW is unable […]

Jerryd Bayless Is Targeting a Return on Monday

Philadelphia 76ers guard Jerryd Bayless (wrist) is not expected to play against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Sunday. He is reportedly targeting a return on Monday versus the Milwaukee Bucks. This wrist injury continues to linger, so the Sixers are going to be careful with Bayless. Timothe Luwawu and T.J. McConnell will continue to benefit […]

Danilo Gallinari Won't Play Sunday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Danilo Gallinari (gluteus) won't play against the New Orleans Pelicans on Sunday. There was a chance Gallinari returned for this contest, but the Clippers do not want to rush him back to action. At this rate, it's possible Gallo is sidelined a few more games. Tyrone Wallace and Wesley Johnson will […]

Manu Ginobili Questionable on Sunday

San Antonio Spurs guard/forward Manu Ginobili (thigh) is questionable to play against the Sacramento Kings on Sunday. He's missed six straight games, but the questionable tag is actually an upgrade for Ginobili at this point. His return would take minutes away from Bryn Forbes and Danny Green. He could even hurt the value of Davis […]

Dwyane Wade Questionable on Sunday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Dwyane Wade (personal) is questionable to play against the Detroit Pistons on Sunday. He missed Friday's game with an excused personal absence. The Cavs told Wade he can take as much time off as he needs. J.R. Smith scored 23 points with seven triples and four steals in 37 minutes on Friday. […]

Malcolm Brogdon Ruled Out Sunday

Milwaukee Bucks guard Malcolm Brogdon (calf) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Chicago Bulls. This will be Brogdon's second game in a row on the sidelines. He was spotted jumping rope during pre-game workouts, so there is a chance he returns on Monday against the 76ers. Tony Snell will earn the start […]

Tyson Chandler Will Start Sunday

Phoenix Suns center Tyson Chandler (illness) will draw the start against the Houston Rockets on Sunday. He was questionable going into the contest but will be able to suit up. This likely means Greg Monroe heads to the bench on Sunday. Alex Len (ankle) has been ruled out, so Monroe could be looking at 20 […]

Alex Len Ruled Out Sunday

Phoenix Suns forward/center Alex Len (ankle) has been ruled out against the Houston Rockets on Sunday. He was unable to practice on Saturday, so it's not surprising to see him sitting this one out. Len should be considered questionable for Monday's game against Memphis as well. Greg Monroe should see at least 20 minutes and […]

Dante Cunningham Will Start Sunday

New Orleans Pelicans forward Dante Cunningham will draw the start against the Los Angeles Clippers on Sunday. Cunningham will jump into the starting five for DeMarcus Cousins (Achilles). Darius Miller and possibly Cheick Diallo will see increased playing time without Cousins. Cunningham will see increased minutes, but he's still not worth owning in standard leagues […]

Kevin Durant is Probable on Saturday

Golden State Warriors forward Kevin Durant (foot) is probable to play against the Boston Celtics on Saturday. The foot soreness did not limit him too much when he dropped a triple-double on Thursday. The Warriors are likely just being cautious, but it's doubtful Durant sits out on Saturday. Owners should not worry too much about […]

D'Angelo Russell Won't Play Saturday

Brooklyn Nets guard D'Angelo Russell (rest) will not play against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Saturday. The Nets are not allowing Russell to play in back-to-back sets yet. He continues to look rusty and had seven turnovers in 21 minutes on Friday. Caris LeVert will benefit the most from the absence of Russell. Joe Harris, Allen […]
