Joel Embiid Goes Through Full Practice on Friday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (hand) was able to go through a full practice on Friday.

Ben Simmons and Matisse Thybulle […]

Lauri Markkanen is Out At Least A Month

Chicago Bulls forward Lauri Markkanen (hip) is going to miss significant time after suffering an injury on Friday. An MRI revealed a stress reaction of his right pelvis, so he's expected to miss four to six weeks of action. Wendell Carter Jr. (ankle) and Daniel Gafford (thumb) are already sidelined, so the injuries are piling […]

Jaylen Brown is Questionable for Friday's Game

Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown (ankle) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Orlando Magic. He suffered a right ankle sprain on Monday and was unable to suit up for Wednesday's contest. He's traveling with the team and is expected to test out his ankle on Friday during shootaround. Marcus Smart would benefit […]

Enes Kanter is Ruled Out for Friday

Boston Celtics center Enes Kanter (hip) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Orlando Magic. Kanter is dealing with a right hip contusion, but hopefully this won't sideline him for long. Vincent Poirier and Daniel Theis will be asked to split up the minutes at center without Kanter available. Theis is the better […]

Jayson Tatum is Questionable Against Magic

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (groin) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Orlando Magic. Tatum is dealing with a right groin strain, but it doesn't sound too serious at the moment.

Anthony Davis is Questionable for Thursday

Los Angeles Lakers forward Anthony Davis (tailbone) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He looked fine during Wednesday's game, but the Lakers are being cautious in a back-to-back set. Kyle Kuzma (ankle) is listed as probable, but he'd be asked to pick up the slack if Davis is unable to […]

Kyle Kuzma is Probable for Thursday

Los Angeles Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma (ankle) is listed as probable for Thursday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He tweaked his left ankle last Saturday and has been battling through it since then. Fantasy owners should expect Kuzma out there, but check back closer to tip-off just in case. Kuzma won't have great streaming appeal […]

Trae Young Gets Through Portions of Practice

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (thigh) was able to get through portions of Thursday's practice. He is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He suffered a right thigh contusion during his 42 point outburst on Monday. Fantasy owners will have a better idea about Young's status after Friday's shootaround. Jeff […]

Markelle Fultz is Fine for Friday

Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (finger) is available for Friday's game against the Boston Celtics. He dislocated his left ring finger during Wednesday's contest. He was able to play through the issue and is expected to play on Friday. It's on his non-shooting hand, so Fultz shouldn't be restricted at all. Fantasy owners should feel […]

Kyrie Irving is Available for Thursday

Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving (hamstring) is available for Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. He missed Monday's game due to right hamstring tightness, but it sounds like he'll be good to go for this one. Garrett Temple will head back to the second unit, while Spencer Dinwiddie and Caris Levert won't see as […]

DeAndre Jordan is Ruled Out for Thursday

Brooklyn Nets center DeAndre Jordan (finger) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. This marks the third game in a row that Jordan has missed with a dislocated finger.

Josh Richardson is Out At Least Two Weeks

Philadelphia 76ers guard Josh Richardson (hamstring) is going to be sidelined for at least a few more weeks. An MRI revealed a left hamstring strain and Richardson will be re-evaluated in two or three weeks. Furkan Korkmaz replaced Richardson during Wednesday's contest. He should see more chances, but James Ennis and Matisse Thybulle will likely […]

Andre Drummond Might Be Cleared for Friday's Game

Detroit Pistons center Andre Drummond (mouth) is expected to see a dentist on Thursday and could be cleared for Friday's game versus the Memphis Grizzlies. Drummond was hit in the mouth on Monday and suffered a lip laceration. It doesn't sound like a serious issue, so Drummond should be back out there for Friday's contest. […]

Bruce Brown Jr. Doesn't Practice on Thursday

Detroit Pistons guard Bruce Brown Jr. (illness) was unable to suit up for Thursday's practice. He's expected to play in Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Brown's value has taken a bit of a hit with Reggie Jackson back in the mix. The Pistons are expected to attempt to trade either Jackson or Derrick Rose […]

Aron Baynes Unlikely To Play Friday

Phoenix Suns center Aron Baynes (hip) should be considered doubtful for Friday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Head coach Monty Williams said he was unsure if Baynes was going to suit up for this contest. His fantasy appeal has taken a significant dip since Deandre Ayton returned to the court. Baynes should be left […]

Bruce Brown Jr. Won't Play Against Kings

Detroit Pistons guard Bruce Brown Jr. (illness) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Tim Frazier (illness) is sidelined as well, but the Pistons are getting Reggie Jackson back for this game.

Duncan Robinson Might Play Wednesday

Miami Heat guard Duncan Robinson (ankle) is listed as a game-time decision for Wednesday's game against the Washington Wizards. He suffered a right ankle sprain during Monday's game. Derrick Jones, Tyler Herro, and Kendrick Nunn would be asked to play more if Robinson is out. Fantasy owners will need to check back closer to tip-off […]

Joel Embiid Will Remain Sidelined on Wednesday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (hand) will remain sidelined for Wednesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He's expected to have his left hand re-evaluated in the next few days.

Jaylen Brown Will Sit Out Against Grizzlies

Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He returned to the court on Monday after missing two games before that. However, Brown tweaked his right ankle during Monday's game. Marcus Smart is expected to jump into the starting five, while Semi Ojeleye could see more […]

Reggie Jackson Will Make His Return on Wednesday

Detroit Pistons guard Reggie Jackson (back) will play in Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He has only played in two games this season, so fantasy owners should expect Jackson to be on a minutes limit here. Bruce Brown Jr. and Derrick Rose could lose some playing time with Jackson back in the mix. He's […]

Rui Hachimura is Cleared for All Activities

Washington Wizards forward Rui Hachimura (groin) has been cleared for all basketball activities. He was a full participant at shootaround, but won't play in Wednesday's game against the Miami Heat. The Wizards are likely going to want Hachimura to get through a few practices before returning to the rotation. He's worth stashing in deep leagues, […]

Marvin Bagley Won't Play Against Pistons

Sacramento Kings forward Marvin Bagley (foot) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. He played 38 minutes on Monday and aggravated his left foot issue in the process. Dewayne Dedmon, Anthony Tolliver, and Harry Giles will be asked to play more minutes without Bagley available. None of those players are great […]

DeAndre Bembry is Ruled Out for Wednesday

Atlanta Hawks guard Deandre Bembry (personal) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers.

Jeff Teague and Kevin Huerter could be asked to play heavy […]

Kawhi Leonard is Ruled Out on Wednesday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (rest, knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Atlanta Hawks.

Lou Williams, […]

Patrick Beverley is Out Against Hawks

Los Angeles Clippers guard Patrick Beverley (groin) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. Kawhi Leonard (rest) and Paul George (hamstring) will join him on the sidelines.

Denver Nuggets guard Gary Harris (groin) has been upgraded to questionable for Wednesday's game against the Houston Rockets.

Torrey Craig and Michael Porter Jr. will likely lose […]

Dwight Powell is Done for the Season

Dallas Mavericks center Dwight Powell (Achilles) is expected to miss the rest of the season. An MRI revealed Powell has a ruptured right Achilles tendon, which means his season is over.
