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 […]

Devin Harris Heading to Denver

Guard Devin Harris has been traded to the Denver Nuggets in a three-team trade. Doug McDermott heads to the Mavs while Emmanuel Mudiay joins the Knicks. Harris is a quality veteran guard but won't offer much to the Nuggets roster. Jamal Murray, Gary Harris and Will Barton are all healthy and above Harris on the […]

Luke Babbitt Traded to Heat

The Miami Heat have acquired some depth and perimeter shooting with the acquisition of Luke Babbitt. Power forward Okaro White (foot) heads to the Atlanta Hawks, but he is still recovering from a left foot fracture. Babbitt could see a few extra minutes in Miami but should be left on the waiver wire. Once White […]

James Ennis Traded to Pistons

The Memphis Grizzlies have decided to move guard/forward James Ennis in exchange for Detroit Pistons power forward Brice Johnson and a second-round pick. Ennis should add some depth and length to the Pistons perimeter, but this move does not increase his fantasy value. Johnson will be the third-string power forward behind JaMychal Green and Jarell […]

Elfrid Payton Headed to Phoenix

The Phoenix Suns have acquired point guard Elfrid Payton from the Orlando Magic in exchange for a second-round pick. The Magic have been reportedly looking to dump Payton's salary for quite some time. Payton will likely be starting next to Devin Booker. Tyler Ulis and Josh Gray will lose minutes and value with this move. […]

Kings Add Iman Shumpert, Joe Johnson At The Deadline

The Sacramento Kings agreed to a three-team trade that sends guard George Hill to the Cavs in exchange for guard/forwards Iman Shumpert and Joe Johnson. According to NBA reporter David Aldridge, the Kings will seek a buyout with Johnson. He was moved from Utah to Sacramento but does not fit in the Kings system. Multiple teams […]

Cavs Acquire George Hill and Rodney Hood

The Cleveland Cavaliers added veteran guard George Hill and guard/forward Rodney Hood in a three-team trade. The Cavs moved guards Iman Shumpert, Derrick Rose and forward Jae Crowder in this deal. Hood was playing well off the bench in Utah before this trade. He does not gain any value from this move to Cleveland, but there […]

Derrick Rose, Jae Crowder Headed to Utah

The Utah Jazz have acquired Cleveland Cavaliers guard Derrick Rose and forward Jae Crowder in a three-way trade. Guard/forward Rodney Hood is headed to Cleveland, while veteran forward Joe Johnson is moved to Sacramento. According to Shams Charania, the Jazz are likely going to release Rose. He does not fit the system in Utah and […]

Jonathon Simmons is Questionable for Thursday

Orlando Magic guard/forward Jonathon Simmons (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. He played through the ankle issue on Tuesday and scored a career-high 34 points in the victory over the Cavs. He did say that he was "very close" to not playing, so maybe he decides to sit out […]

Dwyane Wade Ruled Out on Wednesday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Dwyane Wade (rest) will not play against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Wednesday. This is not surprising news, as Wade is often rested in the second game of a back-to-back set. He seemed fine during Tuesday's contest and should be ready on Friday versus Atlanta. Kyle Korver and Derrick Rose will see increased […]

Devin Booker Ruled Out Wednesday

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (hip, rib) has been ruled out of Wednesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. This will be his second straight game sidelined, but he was not expected to be ready to suit up yet. Booker is taking his injury day by day but is hopeful to still be part of […]

Marco Belinelli Ruled Out Thursday

Atlanta Hawks guard/forward Marco Belinelli will not travel with the team for their game against the Orlando Magic on Thursday. He was held out of Tuesday's game due to ongoing trade discussions. The trade deadline is Feb. 8, so Belinelli has likely played his last game with Atlanta. He'll likely be moved to a contender, […]

Harrison Barnes is Questionable for Thursday

Dallas Mavericks forward Harrison Barnes (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Golden State Warriors. Barnes was able to practice on Wednesday, which is an encouraging sign regarding his status for Thursday. Owners will likely have to wait until Thursday for another update, but if Barnes returns, Dwight Powell will move back […]

Victor Oladipo Will Play Wednesday

Indiana Pacers guard Victor Oladipo (illness) will play against the New Orleans Pelicans on Wednesday. He is expected to return from a one-game absence on Wednesday. Oladipo's return means Lance Stephenson will move back to the second unit and Bojan Bogdanovic's usage will take a hit. Oladipo is not expected to have any minutes limit […]

Rondae Hollis-Jefferson and Caris LeVert Ruled Out

Brooklyn Nets forward Rondae Hollis-Jefferson (groin) and guard Caris LeVert (knee, concussion) have been ruled out of Wednesday's contest against the Detroit Pistons. Quincy Acy (finger) is questionable and could be in danger of joining his teammates on the sidelines. Joe Harris should be looking at another start and heavy minutes coming his way. Both […]

Quincy Acy is Questionable on Wednesday

Brooklyn Nets forward/center Quincy Acy (finger) is questionable to play against the Detroit Pistons on Wednesday. Acy sat out of Tuesday's game, which resulted in DeMarre Carroll moving to power forward and Joe Harris starting at small forward. It'll likely be the same again if Acy is forced out of action on Wednesday. Harris could […]

Wayne Ellington is Questionable Against Houston

Miami Heat guard/forward Wayne Ellington (shoulder) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Houston Rockets. It is unclear how Ellington suffered this injury, but the Heat could be very thin on the wings Wednesday. Ellington and Justise Winslow (illness) are both listed as questionable for Wednesday's contest. If both players sit out of Wednesday's game, […]

Justise Winslow is Questionable on Wednesday

Miami Heat forward Justise Winslow (illness) is questionable for Wednesday's contest against the Houston Rockets. He left Tuesday's practice early and is likely headed towards a game-time decision on Wednesday. Tyler Johnson, James Johnson and Derrick Jones would see extended playing time if Winslow is unable to suit up against Houston. Owners should check back during pre-game warmups for […]

Kelly Olynyk Doubtful on Wednesday

Miami Heat forward/center Kelly Olynyk (shoulder) is doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Houston Rockets. Olynyk played just seven minutes during Monday's contest before exiting. Bam Adebayo picked up a majority of Olynyk's minutes. He finished with 18 points, 10 boards, one assist, one steal and two blocks over 26 minutes. There is a chance […]

John Henson Ruled Out Tuesday

Milwaukee Bucks forward/center John Henson (hamstring) has been ruled out for Tuesday's contest against the New York Knicks. Henson has been dealing with some discomfort in his hamstring after tweaking it in Sunday's win over Brooklyn. Thon Maker will jump into the starting five with Henson inactive on Tuesday. Newly acquired Tyler Zeller could join […]

Frank Ntilikina is Questionable Against Bucks

New York Knicks point guard Frank Ntilikina (knee) is questionable to play against the Milwaukee Bucks on Tuesday. The Knicks have listed him as questionable, but Ntilikina said he was hopeful to play. The rookie admitted that his knee has been bothering him for about a month. Trey Burke will take over as the main […]

Dragan Bender Will Start on Tuesday

Phoenix Suns forward/center Dragan Bender will draw the start against the Los Angeles Lakers on Tuesday. Marquese Chriss will be back in action after serving a one-game suspension on Sunday. Head coach Jay Triano said the move to keep Bender in the starting lineup was not punishment for Chriss. Triano believes Bender provides a better […]

Devin Booker Ruled Out Tuesday

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (hip) has been ruled out of Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. He is not expected to be ready to play Wednesday versus San Antonio, but he has not been officially ruled out for that contest. Tyler Ulis will draw the start for Booker against the Lakers on Tuesday. […]

Seth Curry Will Miss Rest of the Season

Dallas Mavericks guard Seth Curry (leg) will miss the rest of the season, according to Adrian Wojnarowski. Curry will have season-ending surgery of his left tibia. He has not logged in a single minute for the Mavs during the 2017-2018 season. It has been a completely lost season for Curry, but he is expected to […]
