DeMarcus Cousins Gets Guaranteed Contract

Houston Rockets center DeMarcus Cousins has quickly proven that he can still play at an elite level. He has shown enough that the Rockets have guaranteed his $2.3 million contract for the rest of the season. His fantasy value has been up and down due to the fact he battles with Christian Wood (ankle) for […]

Kyle Lowry Upgraded To Questionable For Friday

Toronto Raptors guard Kyle Lowry (thumb) has been upgraded to questionable for Friday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. This is quite surprising considering head coach Nick Nurse previously ruled out Lowry for this game. It sounds like there's a chance he suits up, but the Raptors should be able to easily win without Lowry. Fred […]

Lauri Markkanen Dealing With Discomfort

Chicago Bulls forward Lauri Markkanen (shoulder) has been doing some conditioning, but mentioned he is also dealing with discomfort. It was announced in early February that Markkanen would miss possibly a month of action due to a shoulder issue. It's not shocking that he is dealing with discomfort, but the Bulls might bring him along […]

Kevon Looney Could Return Soon

Golden State Warriors center Kevon Looney (ankle) could return to the rotation by the end of the current road trip, according to head coach Steve Kerr. Looney has been sidelined since early February, but has been making progress during practice. He doesn't offer much fantasy value, but is much-needed depth for the Warriors. James Wiseman […]

Paul Millsap Remains Sidelined

Denver Nuggets forward Paul Millsap (knee) could be in danger of missing more playing time. Head coach Mike Malone mentioned that the team is still awaiting results from tests before they determine how long Millsap will be sidelined. He has missed each of the last two games and is likely going to be out even […]

Shake Milton Appears To Be Making Progress

Philadelphia 76ers guard Shake Milton (ankle) was able to go through an on-court workout before Wednesday's contest. He sat out that contest, which was his fourth straight game on the sideline. It sounds like Milton is making progress, but the team has not given a timetable for his return. There hasn't been a huge winner […]

James Ennis Expected To Play Friday

Orlando Magic forward James Ennis (groin) is expected to be available for Friday's game against the Golden State Warriors, according to head coach Steve Clifford. He has missed each of the last two games, but will hopefully be available for this one. His return would mean less playing time for Dwayne Bacon. However, neither of […]

Evan Fournier Probable Versus Warriors

Orlando Magic guard Evan Fournier (back) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Golden State Warriors. He has missed 14 games this season due to back spasms, but was able to suit up on Wednesday. He played 31 minutes in the win over the Knicks, so hopefully Fournier can get out there on […]

Kyle Lowry Could Miss Thursday's Contest

Toronto Raptors guard Kyle Lowry (ankle, thumb) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. He suffered a sprained ankle on Tuesday and also injured his thumb on his non-shooting hand. It wouldn't be shocking to see the Raptors take the cautious approach here. That being said, Fred Vanvleet would see his […]

Taurean Prince Remains Out Of Practice

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Taurean Prince (ankle) has missed each of the last two practices due to injury. That puts him in danger of sitting out of Friday's game against the Denver Nuggets. The Cavs have not released their injury report yet, but the fact Prince has missed two straight practices isn't a good sign. Cedi […]

Jaren Jackson Jr. Gets In Some Practice

Memphis Grizzlies forward Jaren Jackson Jr. (knee) has been able to go through portions of practices, according to head coach Taylor Jenkins. The team has not given many updates on Jackson, so this is better than nothing. He still remains without a timetable and is not expected back until at least after the All-Star break. […]

James Wiseman Could Return Friday

Golden State Warriors center James Wiseman (wrist) has a chance to suit up for Friday's contest. He has not been able to play since late January, but it appears Wiseman has been making progress. Head coach Steve Kerr mentioned that Wiseman will be re-evaluated on Thursday, so fantasy managers will get a better idea after […]

Daniel Theis Sidelined Versus Hawks

Boston Celtics center Daniel Theis (finger) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. This is the second game in a row that Theis has missed due to a sprained right index finger. Tristan Thompson scored nine points with 12 rebounds in 28 minutes, while Robert Williams eight points with eight rebounds, […]

Kyle Lowry Could Sit Out On Thursday

Toronto Raptors guard Kyle Lowry (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. He exited early twice during Tuesday's contest due to a sprained left ankle. It wouldn't be shocking to see the Raptors take the cautious approach and rest Lowry in this one. Fred Vanvleet would see his usage skyrocket […]

Kemba Walker Sitting Out On Wednesday

Boston Celtics guard Kemba Walker (rest) will not suit up for Wednesday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. It's the second game of a back-to-back set, so Walker will sit out for rest purposes. Fantasy managers should expect this to continue happening throughout the rest of the season. Payton Pritchard will get extended run and is […]

Rodney Hood Questionable For Wednesday

Portland Trail Blazers forward Rodney Hood (foot) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. He suffered a left foot sprain on Friday and hasn't played since then. Anfernee Simons has been on fire lately, so Hood could lose some playing time even if he does suit up. Honestly, Hood wasn't […]

Harry Giles III Ruled Out Wednesday

Portland Trail Blazers center Harry Giles III (calf) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. He missed Tuesday's contest as well due to a left calf strain. Nassir Little and Enes Kanter will benefit the most from the loss of Giles. Little scored 13 points, while Kanter finished with a […]

De'Andre Hunter Making Progress

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (knee) has progressed to weight-bearing, lower-limb strength activities. He is still recovering from a significant knee injury but will be re-evaluated in two weeks. However, the Hawks don't have a timetable for Hunter's return at the moment. Cam Reddish, Danilo Gallinari and Kevin Huerter will be asked to pick up […]

P.J. Tucker Ruled Out Versus Sixers

Houston Rockets forward P.J. Tucker (thigh) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He was listed as questionable, but the Rockets are going to play it safe here. Tucker has been brought up in recent trade rumors, so it's not surprising to see Houston taking the safe approach here. Danuel House […]

Eric Gordon Uncertain For Wednesday

Houston Rockets forward Eric Gordon (groin) is expected to be a game-time decision for Wednesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He has missed each of the last two games due to a groin issue. The Rockets could desperately use Gordon on the court with multiple players already sidelined. Jae'sean Tate and David Nwaba would see […]

Monte Morris, Gary Harris Questionable Versus Wizards

Denver Nuggets guards Monte Morris (shoulder) and Gary Harris (groin) are listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Washington Wizards. Morris sat out of Tuesday's game, which resulted in Facundo Campazzo getting the start. Harris would be a much better fantasy option, assuming Morris is out and Harris is cleared to play. Otherwise, Jamal […]

Will Barton, Paul Millsap Ruled Out For Wednesday

Denver Nuggets forwards Will Barton (personal) and Paul Millsap (knee) will not suit up for Wednesday's game against the Washington Wizards. Barton has missed each of the last two games due to personal reasons, so it's unclear when he'll get back on the court. Michael Porter Jr. has been the biggest winner here in terms […]

Sekou Doumbouya Remains Out Versus Bulls

Detroit Pistons forward Sekou Doumbouya (head) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Chicago Bulls. This will be his third game in a row sidelined due to a concussion. Blake Griffin remains out while the team searches for a trade partner for him. Jerami Grant and Saddiq Bey will see a few more […]

De'Anthony Melton, Desmond Bane Out On Wednesday

Memphis Grizzlies guards De'Anthony Melton (shoulder) and Desmond Bane (personal) have been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Melton will miss his sixth straight game, and it's unclear when he'll get back into the rotation. Bane will sit out his fourth straight contest while he deals with personal issues. Tyus Jones, Sean […]

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Will Play Wednesday

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (knee) will suit up for Wednesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. This will be his first game back since missing each of the last four contests due to a left knee sprain. Kenrich Williams and Hamidou Diallo will see their roles reduced with Gilgeous-Alexander returning. Theo Maledon and Luguentz […]

Monte Morris Questionable Versus Celtics

Denver Nuggets guard Monte Morris (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Boston Celtics. Morris has been in the starting lineup recently with the Nuggets shorthanded. However, he hasn't been able to make much of an impact despite getting at least 30 minutes of play. His absence would mean increased minutes for […]

D'Angelo Russell Remains Sidelined

Minnesota Timberwolves guard D'Angelo Russell (leg) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. He'll miss his eighth straight game while the team continues to gather information about the injury. It's unclear when Russell is getting back on the court because it sounds like the team doesn't know the severity of […]

Daniel Theis Won't Suit Up Tuesday

Boston Celtics center Daniel Theis (finger) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He is dealing with a sprained right index finger, but it doesn't sound like something that is going to sideline him for an extended period. Tristan Thompson and Robert Williams will split up the center minutes for Tuesday's […]

Jrue Holiday Continues To Sit Out

Milwaukee Bucks guard Jrue Holiday will not suit up for Tuesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He is still recovering from COVID-19 and must be cleared from the NBA's health and safety protocols before getting back on the court. Until then, Bryn Forbes and D.J. Augustin will continue seeing increased minutes. Khris Middleton is the […]

Kyrie Irving Ruled Out Versus Suns

Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving (back) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Phoenix Suns. He is reportedly dealing with some minor back tightness, but the Nets aren't going to take any chances. Irving dropped 40 points on Monday, so possibly the fact it's a back-to-back set is part of the reason he's […]
