LeBron James Likely To Miss More Time

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (knee) flew back to Los Angeles to receive treatment this weekend. The knee injury appears to be worse than the organization originally thought. An MRI revealed general soreness and head coach Frank Vogel has not given a timetable on James return. "As long as the swelling is there, he […]

Will Barton Will Play Against Bucks

Denver Nuggets forward Will Barton (illness) will be available for Sunday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. It was uncertain if Barton was going to play here due to a non-COVID related illness. However, his return will likely shift Austin Rivers back to the second unit. Rivers won't have as much streaming appeal with Barton back […]

Jimmy Butler Uncertain For Monday

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (ankle) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Boston Celtics. It sounds like Butler suffered an ankle injury while playing 52 minutes during the triple-overtime loss on Saturday. It wouldn't be shocking to see the Raptors give Butler the night off for rest purposes. Caleb Martin and Max […]

DeMarcus Cousins Won't Play Against Bucks

Denver Nuggets center DeMarcus Cousins (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Cousins won't get a chance to take on his former team due to a right foot sprain. JaMychal Green, Zeke Nnaji, and Jeff Green are all available, so the Nuggets will have plenty of options at center. None […]

Kristaps Porzingis Not Available On Sunday

Dallas Mavericks center Kristaps Porzingis (knee) didn't travel with the team for Sunday's game against the Orlando Magic. He was only able to play 11 minutes on Saturday before exiting with right knee soreness. His absence means more playing time for Maxi Kleber and Dwight Powell. The hope is that Porzingis can play in their […]

George Hill Won't Play Sunday

Milwaukee Bucks guard George Hill (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Denver Nuggets. It appears the Bucks are going to play it safe with their veteran guard. Grayson Allen should more minutes coming his way on Sunday. His usage should increase as well, which makes him an interesting DFS option. Hill […]

Derrick Rose To Return Shortly After All-Star Break

New York Knicks guard Derrick Rose (ankle) is hopeful to return shortly after the All-Star break. He hasn't played since before Christmas, but is making progress towards a return. He shouldn't have any problems finding playing time off the bench. Kemba Walker and Immanuel Quickley are his main competition for playing time. Alec Burks should […]

Josh Jackson Unlikely To Play Sunday

Detroit Pistons forward Josh Jackson (back) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He was able to play 16 minutes on Friday, but continues to deal with back tightness. There's a good chance he sits this one out, so he can try and recover from this issue. Frank Jackson and Rodney […]

Aaron Gordon Might Sit Versus Bucks

Denver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon (illness) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. He was a late addition to the injury report due to a non-COVID related illness. Zeke Nnaji has been playing better lately and could slide into the starting five on Sunday. He's averaging 9.5 points and 3.8 rebounds […]

Lauri Markkanen To Remain Sidelined On Sunday

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Lauri Markkanen (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Detroit Pistons. This marks the third game in a row that Markkanen has missed due to a right ankle sprain. It wouldn't be surprising if Markkanen misses a few more games due to this issue. Dean Wade has been starting […]

Will Barton Probable For Sunday

Denver Nuggets forward Will Barton (illness) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. He sat out of Friday's game due to a non-COVID related illness. Austin Rivers has been seeing an increased role lately, but could have less minutes, assuming Barton returns here. Although, Rivers might still be worth holding even […]

LeBron James Expected To Miss Time

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (knee) is expected to miss some time. An MRI revealed left knee swelling, but the Lakers are going to be cautious with their superstar forward. Stanley Johnson is most likely going to remain in the starting five until James returns. Russell Westbrook and Anthony Davis will be asked to […]

Jae Crowder Questionable For Sunday

Phoenix Suns forward Jae Crowder (wrist) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. He has missed each of the last three games due to a left wrist contusion. Cameron Johnson has been excellent lately and is worth streaming while Crowder is out. Fantasy managers should check the waiver wire and […]

Deandre Ayton Questionable Versus Spurs

Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. He has missed each of the five games while dealing with an ankle injury. JaVale McGee (knee) is questionable as well, which means Bismack Biyombo could be looking at significant minutes once again. He'll be a strong […]

Russell Westbrook Expected To Play Sunday

Los Angeles Lakers guard Russell Westbrook (knee) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. He was able to play through the issue during the Lakers last game. Anthony Davis (wrist) is expected to play as well, so Westbrook won't be forced to do everything. However, LeBron James (knee) is out, so […]

Malik Monk Probable Versus Hawks

Los Angeles Lakers guard Malik Monk (groin) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. He is expected to make his return to the court after a one-game absence. Wayne Ellington should shift back to the bench after a lackluster performance in Monk's place. Monk could be asked to take on a […]

Kelly Oubre Jr. Downgraded To Out

Charlotte Hornets forward Kelly Oubre Jr. (ankle) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. This marks the second game in a row that Oubre has missed due to a left ankle sprain. It's a shame because Oubre was starting to heat up before the injury. Gordon Hayward will be […]

Nicolas Batum Ruled Out Against Hornets

Los Angeles Clippers forward Nicolas Batum (back) won't be available for Sunday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Instead, Marcus Morris Sr. should take his place in the starting five. Justise Winslow will likely back him up, but Morris should benefit the most with Batum sidelined. Morris is looking like a strong streaming option and a […]

Anthony Davis Available Versus Hawks

Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (wrist) will be available for Sunday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. The superstar big man will make his return to the court after a one game absence. He'll be asked to play a bigger role than normal with LeBron James (knee) still sidelined. Fantasy managers should expect Davis to […]

Trae Young Cleared For Sunday

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (hip) has been cleared to play for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. This is great news since Young has been on fire lately. Over the last six games, Young is averaging 27.2 points, 8.7 assists, and 4.7 rebounds with 1.7 steals. The uptick in steals is nice to […]

De'Andre Hunter Available On Sunday

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (ankle) is available for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Hunter has been playing well lately, so the Hawks are certainly glad to have him available for this game. Fantasy managers should check the waiver wire and see if Hunter is still available because he's worth snagging right now. […]

Kyle Anderson Available On Saturday

Memphis Grizzlies forward Kyle Anderson will play during Saturday's game against the Washington Wizards. Anderson has been cleared of the league's health and safety protocols before this game. However, COVID-19 protocols cost Anderson each of the last five games. His return could hinder the value of Brandon Clarke. Although, Clarke has been playing well lately, […]

Thomas Bryant Moves Into Starting Five

Washington Wizards center Thomas Bryant will move into the starting five for Saturday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Daniel Gafford has been lackluster lately, so he'll move to the second unit here. The Wizards have experienced issues all season long trying to find playing time for their three-headed monster at center. Bryant has some streaming […]

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander To Be Sidelined Through All-Star Break

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (ankle) is going to be out until at least after the All-Star break. The star guard suffered a right ankle sprain during Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers. This team is going nowhere fast, so they've decided to let Gilgeous-Alexander rest through the All-Star break. Fantasy managers should be […]

Fred Vanvleet Cleared To Play Versus Heat

Toronto Raptors guard Fred VanVleet (knee) will be available for Saturday's game against the Miami Heat. He has missed each of the last two games due to a right knee issue. There is no word on whether or not Vanvleet would be limited during this game. Regardless, fantasy managers in season long formats can go […]

James Harden Uncertain Against Warriors

Brooklyn Nets guard James Harden (hand) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Golden State Warriors. He has been cleared from his hamstring injury, but this right hand issue is new. It's unclear where Harden picked up the injury, but he'll likely test it out pregame before making a final decision. Patty Mills […]

De'Aaron Fox Ruled Out Against Sixers

Sacramento Kings guard De'Aaron Fox (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He will miss his fourth game in a row while he continues to deal with an ankle injury. Tyrese Haliburton will continue to see increased usage and a majority of the ball-handling responsibilities. He'll be a strong streaming […]

Seth Curry Will Return Against Kings

Philadelphia 76ers guard Seth Curry (ankle) is available for Saturday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He had missed each of the last four games while dealing with a left ankle injury. There's a chance he's somewhat limited during his first game back on the court. Curry has some streaming appeal and he could be a […]

Chimezie Metu Available Saturday

Sacramento Kings center Chimezie Metu (knee) will be available for Saturday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He will return after missing each of the last two games due to left knee soreness. Richaun Holmes and Marvin Bagley III are healthy, so Metu won't have a ton of fantasy appeal on Saturday. Metu is not worth […]

Will Barton Downgraded To Out

Denver Nuggets forward Will Barton (illness) has been downgraded to out for Friday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. He was expected to play, but will sit this one out due to a non-COVID related illness. The Pelicans are missing multiple key players, so the Nuggets appear to be playing it safe here. Austin Rivers […]
