New Orleans Pelicans guard Nickeil Alexander-Walker has entered the league's health and safety protocols. He is the first player on this team to enter protocols, so we'll see if anyone else joins him.

Kevin Porter Jr. Making Good Progress

Houston Rockets guard Kevin Porter Jr. (thigh) appears to be making good progress, but doesn't have a timetable to return. It sounds like he has been improving every day, but it's a slow process. The Rockets aren't exactly fighting for a playoff spot, so they don't need to rush Porter back to the court. He […]

Jalen Green Removed From Injury Report

Houston Rockets guard Jalen Green (leg) is officially off the injury report ahead of Thursday's game against the Indiana Pacers. He has missed a month of action due to a leg issue.

Mike Gesicki - Week 16 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Miami Dolphins tight end Mike Gesicki has seen nearly 20 targets combined over his last two games. However, the return of wide receiver Jaylen Waddle could cut into those targets for Week 16.

Myles Gaskin - Week 16 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Miami Dolphins running back Myles Gaskin was uncertain to play during the Week 15 matchup with the New York Jets. However, Gaskin cleared COVID protocols and was able to take the field last week.

Tua Tagovailoa - Week 16 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa is coming off a disappointing performance against the New York Jets last week. He threw for only 196 yards and had two interceptions to his name as well.

Miami Heat forward P.J. Tucker (leg) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Detroit Pistons. The MRI on Tucker came back negative on Tuesday.

Sacramento Kings center Richaun Holmes (eye) is hopeful to be available for Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. He has missed each of the last seven games due to an eye laceration.

Nerlens Noel Enters COVID-19 Protocols

New York Knicks center Nerlens Noel has entered the league's health and safety protocols on Wednesday. The Knicks already without around seven or eight players due to injuries or protocols.

Kevin Love Uncertain Against Celtics

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Kevin Love (foot) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Boston Celtics. His absence would be a crushing blow to the Cavs who are already without Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley. Love has scored double digits in seven straight games. He is a solid streaming option if he's able to […]

Luka Doncic, Trey Burke Land In COVID-19 Protocols

Dallas Mavericks guards Luka Doncic and Trey Burke have entered the league's health and safety protocols. Doncic was already sidelined due to an ankle issue, but now could miss possibly 10 days.

Kristaps Porzingis Sitting Out On Tuesday

Dallas Mavericks center Kristaps Porzingis (toe) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. The Mavericks were already without three of their starters due to protocols.

Detroit Pistons guard Killian Hayes (thumb) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the New York Knicks. He continues to deal with a lingering thumb issue and will sit out on Tuesday.

Malcolm Brogdon Is Available On Tuesday

Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon (Achilles) is available for Tuesday's game against the Miami Heat. He received the weekend off to rest his Achilles issue.

New York Knicks guard Kemba Walker will move into the starting five for Tuesday's game against the Detroit Pistons.

He looked sharp during […]

Derrick Rose Unavailable For Tuesday

New York Knicks guard Derrick Rose (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. This doesn't come as much of a surprise considering he has been battling an ankle issue over the last few days. His absence should push Kemba Walker into a bigger role on Tuesday. He has been playing […]

Tyler Herro Tagged As Probable

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (quad) is listed as probable ahead of Tuesday's game against the Indiana Pacers. He missed Sunday's game due to a right quad issue, but is on track to suit up here.

Ed Davis Unavailable For Tuesday

Cleveland Cavaliers center Ed Davis has entered the league's health and safety protocols. That means, Davis won't be available for Tuesday's game against the Boston Celtics.

Detroit Pistons guard Killian Hayes (illness) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the New York Knicks. He is dealing with a non-COVID related illness, but might be able to suit up here. The team will likely have him go through pregame warmups before making a final decision.
