Julius Randle Placed In COVID-19 Protocols

New York Knicks forward Julius Randle has been placed in the league's health and safety protocols. This a tough blow to the Knicks who are already shorthanded. Now, they will lose one of their best players to protocols. Luckily, Obi Toppin has looked strong lately and appears to be a capable backup. He has been […]

Malcolm Brogdon Lands In COVID-19 Protocols

Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon has been placed in the league's health and safety protocols. He can't seem to catch a break since he was already dealing with an Achilles injury. Hopefully, this time off will give Brogdon enough time to heal his Achilles issue. He'll join Chris Duarte and Jeremy Lamb in protocols, so […]

Anthony Edwards Back To Practice On Thursday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards was a full participant during Thursday's practice. He cleared the league's health and safety protocols days ago, but has been building back his conditioning. Edwards was held out of Tuesday's game, but has a chance at playing on Friday. That being said, Jaylen Nowell could be seeing his fantasy window […]

Frank Jackson Out At Least One Week

Detroit Pistons guard Frank Jackson (ankle) was forced out of action early during Wednesday's game against the New York Knicks. He suffered a right ankle injury and will be re-evaluated in roughly 7-10 days. This is a tough blow to Detroit who is already without a bunch of their playmakers. Cory Joseph should see increased […]

Evan Fournier Uncertain For Friday

New York Knicks guard Evan Fournier (ankle) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He is reportedly dealing with right ankle soreness, but will get Thursday off to rest. Fournier has had more upside lately with Julius Randle in COVID-19 protocols. Otherwise, Alec Burks and Immanuel Quickley would be asked […]

Cassius Stanley Finishes Second Half

Detroit Pistons guard Cassius Stanley started during the second half of Wednesday's game against the New York Knicks. Frank Jackson (ankle) suffered an injury in the first half and was unable to continue. Stanley is currently on a 10-day deal with Detroit. He finished with four points, four rebounds, and four steals during Wednesday's contest. […]

Andre Drummond, Shake Milton Questionable For Thursday

Philadelphia 76ers center Andre Drummond and guard Shake Milton have both cleared the league's health and safety protocols ahead of Thursday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. Drummond was able to practice on Wednesday, but it normally takes a few days to get up your conditioning. That being said, Joel Embiid could be asked to take […]

Jimmy Butler, Kyle Lowry Expected To Play Friday

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (ankle) and guard Kyle Lowry are expected to play during Friday's game against the Houston Rockets. Both players were listed as out heading into Wednesday's game, which ended up getting postponed. That being said, the organization believes both Butler and Lowry will be ready in time for Friday's matchup. Fantasy managers […]

Aaron Gordon Uncertain For Thursday

Denver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Golden State Warriors. He missed Tuesday's game while nursing a left hamstring issue. The Nuggets could certainly use his help, but they also know that hamstring issues have a tendency to linger. That being said, Nikola Jokic and Will Barton […]

Jordan Poole Cleared For Thursday

Golden State Warriors guards Jordan Poole and Moses Moody have cleared the league's health and safety protocols ahead of Thursday's game against the Denver Nuggets. Both players completed their quarantine period and are allowed to return. Poole is likely to move right back into the starting five, while Moody won't have much value off the […]

Reggie Bullock Not Available On Wednesday

Dallas Mavericks guard Reggie Bullock won't be available for Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He cleared the league's health and safety protocols on Tuesday, but is back in them after this game begins. That being said, Bullock won't be available, but Isaiah Thomas will make his debut for Dallas. Jalen Brunson and Josh Green […]

Isaiah Thomas Available On Wednesday

Dallas Mavericks guard Isaiah Thomas is available for Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He was just signed to a 10-day deal after Brandon Knight went into protocols earlier on Wednesday. Thomas was playing decent on the Los Angeles Lakers, so maybe he can make some noise in Dallas. The Mavericks don't exactly have many […]

Frank Jackson Exits Early On Wednesday

Detroit Pistons guard Frank Jackson (ankle) was forced to exit early during Wednesday's game against the New York Knicks. He appeared to have suffered a right ankle injury during the second quarter. The Pistons already have a bunch of injuries, so hopefully this isn't anything significant. Cory Joseph, Justin Robinson, and Cassius Stanley should all […]

Davion Mitchell Clears COVID-19 Protocols

Sacramento Kings guard Davion Mitchell has cleared the league's COVID-19 protocols ahead of Wednesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. Both Mitchell and Alex Len will be available for this contest. However, the majority of the Kings roster is healthy, which hurts the value of these two players. Len won't be on the fantasy radar, while […]

Eric Paschall Out On Wednesday

Utah Jazz forward Eric Paschall (personal) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He hasn't exactly been much of a fantasy option this season. It's uncertain how long he'll be absent due to this personal matter. In the meantime, Rudy Gay and Royce O'Neale should be asked to pick up […]

Ty Jerome Moves Into Starting Five

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Ty Jerome will move into the starting five for Wednesday's game against the Phoenix Suns. He will replace Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (ankle) who hopefully won't miss too much time. The Thunder haven't won a game when Gilgeous-Alexander sits out. Regardless, Jerome will start alongside Luguentz Dort, Paul Watson, Aaron Wiggins and Isaiah […]

Elfrid Payton Won't Play Wednesday

Phoenix Suns guard Elfrid Payton has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Payton is back in protocols after coming back on Monday. He didn't exactly have a huge role when healthy anyway. Cameron Payne will see more minutes in his absence. He could be a low-end streaming option, but there […]

Terrence Ross Won't Play Wednesday

Orlando Magic guard Terrence Ross has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. He has cleared the COVID-19 protocols, but he needs to continue ramping up his conditioning. His next chance to play would be on Sunday, so fantasy managers should check back then. In the meantime, Gary Harris will continue getting […]

Jimmy Butler Remains Out Wednesday

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. His absence now brings the Heat to seven active players for this contest. They must bring players from their G-League organization up in order to have enough to play on Wednesday. However, none of them are expected […]

Cole Anthony Not Playing Against Bucks

Orlando Magic guard Cole Anthony (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. He appears to have re-aggravated his ankle injury last week and has missed the last three games. Hopefully, this is the organization being cautious and waiting until Anthony is back to full strength again. In the meantime, Hassani […]

Derrick Jones Jr. Available On Wednesday

Chicago Bulls forward Derrick Jones Jr. (hamstring) is available for Wednesday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. He has missed each of the last three games while dealing with a hamstring strain. That being said, the Bulls might limit Jones during his first game back. The Hawks are extremely shorthanded, so they might not need much […]

Kevin Durant Expected To Play Thursday

Brooklyn Nets forward Kevin Durant is expected to suit up for Thursday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Both Durant and LaMarcus Aldridge plan to play in this contest, according to head coach Steve Nash. That being said, Bruce Brown should see his value take a significant hit. Patty Mills won't see as much usage either, which is […]

KZ Okpala Unavailable For Wednesday

Miami Heat forward KZ Okpala (wrist) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. The Heat reportedly signed guard Kyle Guy, but that still only puts their team to seven active players. Miami needs to get another active player by game time or this contest will be postponed. Tyler Hero and […]

Kemba Walker Expected To Play Wednesday

New York Knicks guard Kemba Walker is not listed on the injury report ahead of Wednesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. It's the second leg of a back-to-back set, which normally means that Walker sits out. However, it sounds like the All-Star guard will play on Wednesday. The Knicks are without Derrick Rose (ankle) and […]

John Konchar Enters COVID-19 Protocols

Memphis Grizzlies guard John Konchar has entered the league's health and safety protocols. He marks the fifth player on this roster to enter protocols. The Grizzlies are desperately lacking depth on the wings right now. Desmond Bane is looking like a must-have fantasy option lately. Kyle Anderson is quickly picking up value with the Grizzlies […]

Tim Hardaway Jr. Remains Unavailable On Wednesday

Dallas Mavericks guard Tim Hardaway Jr. has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He continues to sit out due to protocols and has missed each of the last four games. This absence will make it his fifth straight, but hopefully he can be cleared to return soon. Sterling Brown and Frank […]

Jonas Valanciunas Returns On Tuesday

New Orleans Pelicans center Jonas Valanciunas (illness) is back in the starting five for Tuesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He has missed each of the last two games due to a non-COVID related illness. His return shifts Willy Hernangomez back to the bench. He won't have much streaming appeal here, so he can be […]

Garrett Temple Starting On Tuesday

New Orleans Pelicans guard Garrett Temple will slide into the starting five for Tuesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Brandon Ingram (Achilles) remains out of the lineup, which leads to another start for Temple. He dropped 22 points during the loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder on Sunday. There is some low-end streaming appeal and […]

Caleb Martin Slides Into Starting Five

Miami Heat forward Caleb Martin will move into the starting five for Tuesday's game against the Washington Wizards. Max Strus is in protocols, so Martin will be asked to step up in his absence. Martin dropped 17 points during Sunday's contest, so there is some streaming appeal there. Fantasy managers should check and see if […]

Patrick Beverley Moved Into Starting Five

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Patrick Beverley will join the starting five for Tuesday's game against the New York Knicks. The veteran guard is back in action after sitting out over a week due to protocols. His return was expected to push Jordan McLaughlin to the bench, but he'll actually remain in the starting five. Jaylen Nowell […]
