Wendell Carter Jr. is Expected to Miss Weeks

Chicago Bulls center Wendell Carter Jr. (ankle) is expected to be sidelined for the foreseeable future. An MRI confirmed that Carter has a high ankle sprain, so he's likely going to miss multiple weeks. Thaddeus Young and Daniel Gafford should have fantasy value while Carter is sidelined. Both are worth looking at, but Young is […]

Marvin Bagley Practices on Thursday

Sacramento Kings forward Marvin Bagley (foot) was able to fully practice on Thursday. Richaun Holmes (shoulder) is expected to miss at least one more game. He didn't practice on Thursday, so Bagley could slide into a bigger role on Friday. More information should be known after Friday's shootaround. Bagley should be a decent fantasy option […]

Richaun Holmes Sits Out of Practice

Sacramento Kings center Richaun Holmes (shoulder) was unable to suit up for Thursday's practice. He downplayed the injury, but sat out of Tuesday's game. He didn't practice on Thursday, which means he likely won't play on Friday versus the Milwaukee Bucks. Harry Giles and Dewayne Dedmon should soak up the extra minutes. Neither player has […]

Bogdan Bogdanovic is Unable to Practice Thursday

Sacramento Kings guard Bogdan Bogdanovic (ankle) was unable to suit up for Thursday's practice. He did get up some shots after practice, but was reportedly unable to jump. It seems unlikely that Bogdanovic will be out there for Friday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Trevor Ariza should continue to absorb extra playing time. He's worth […]

Avery Bradley Might Sit On Friday

Los Angeles Lakers guard Avery Bradley (illness) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. Bradley was not able to finish Thursday's practice after experiencing a fever. He will travel with the team, but we'll see if Bradley actually plays. Rajon Rondo, Alex Caruso and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope would see more minutes if […]

Stephen Curry Should Be Re-Evaluated in January

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (hand) was able to go through some shooting drills on Thursday. It's good news, but the Warriors aren't in any rush to bring Curry back to the court. He's expected to be re-evaluated in two or three weeks. There's a chance that Curry gets back on the court around […]

Marvin Williams Might Play on Friday

Charlotte Hornets forward Marvin Williams (nose) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Utah Jazz. He's missed each of the last two games after undergoing a procedure to repair his broken nose. There's a chance that he wears a mask, but he shouldn't be sidelined any longer. Fantasy owners should check back on […]

D'Angelo Russell Returns to Practice

Golden State Warriors guard D'Angelo Russell (shoulder) was able to suit up for Thursday's practice. He hasn't played since December 28 due to a bruised right shoulder. Russell is traveling with the team for their game against the Los Angeles Clippers on Friday. It's unclear whether or not Russell would be on a minutes limit […]

Draymond Green Doesn't Practice Thursday

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green (ankle) was unable to suit up for Thursday's practice. He's listed as questionable for Friday's game versus the Los Angeles Clippers. Green is dealing with a minor ankle injury, but shouldn't be sidelined for too long. Eric Paschall and Willie Cauley-Stein would likely benefit the most if Green is […]

Malcolm Brogdon Won't Play Wednesday

Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon (back) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Miami Heat. This will mark the fourth straight game that Brogdon has missed due to back issues. There's some hope that he'll be able to play this weekend, but we'll see how he progresses. Aaron Holiday and T.J. McConnell will […]

Daniel Theis is Available Against Spurs

Boston Celtics center Daniel Theis (neck) is available for Wednesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. He was added to the injury report on Tuesday, but it appears he'll be fine for this game. He'll split up the most of the minutes at center with Enes Kanter. Theis has some deep league value, but Kanter […]

Marvin Williams is Downgraded to Doubtful

Charlotte Hornets forward Marvin Williams (nose) has been downgraded to doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. It appears he's going to miss his second straight game, but will hopefully return after Wednesday. Miles Bridges will see more playing time coming his way. Bridges is worth a look as a DFS option for Wednesday, […]

Justise Winslow is Back on Wednesday

Miami Heat guard Justise Winslow (back) is available for Wednesday's game against the Indiana Pacers. However, he's missed the last 15 games, so he'll be eased back into action here. Fantasy owners should expect minutes in the teens from Winslow here. Goran Dragic, Kendrick Nunn, and Tyler Herro could lose some value from the return […]

Bradley Beal Participates in Shootaround

Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal (leg) was able to participate in Wednesday's shootaround. He's listed as a game-time decision for Wednesday's game against the Orlando Magic. He's missed each of the last three games, but getting through shootaround is a positive sign. Gary Payton, Ish Smith, and Jordan McRae would lose value if Beal returns […]

Julius Randle is Sitting Out Wednesday

New York Knicks forward Julius Randle (personal) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Utah Jazz. He's dealing with a personal matter, so fantasy owners should consider Randle questionable for Friday's contest. Marcus Morris (neck) is going to be sidelined as well on Wednesday. Kevin Knox and RJ Barrett are going to see […]

Jrue Holiday Won't Play on Wednesday

New Orleans Pelicans guard Jrue Holiday (elbow) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He continues to deal with his bruised left elbow and could be sidelined for a few more games. Holiday said his elbow is swelling and it's unclear if he'll be able to suit up for the back-to-back […]

Wendell Carter Jr. Won't Play Wednesday

Chicago Bulls center Wendell Carter Jr. (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. The X-rays came back negative, but Carter will undergo an MRI on Thursday. Daniel Gafford is expected to see increased minutes, but Thaddeus Young could jump into the starting five instead. Young would be worth looking […]

Joel Embiid is Ruled Out for Thursday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (finger) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Boston Celtics. He dislocated his finger during Tuesday's game and wasn't at practice on Wednesday. The Sixers are going to take the safe approach and let their star big man rest. Kyle O'Quinn, Norvel Pelle, and Mike Scott should all […]

Matisse Thybulle Practices on Wednesday

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Matisse Thybulle (knee) was a full participant for Wednesday's practice. He's been sidelined for the past three weeks, but is expected to return for Thursday's game against the Boston Celtics. The Sixers are likely going to ease him back into the rotation after missing three weeks of action. James Ennis is expected […]

Kemba Walker Will Be On Minutes Limit

Boston Celtics guard Kemba Walker (illness) is returning to the starting five for Wednesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. He's missed each of the last three games while battling an illness. He should be inserted back into the starting five, but will be on a minutes limit Wednesday. Marcus Smart will head back to […]

Norman Powell is Not Expected to Play on Wednesday

Toronto Raptors guard Norman Powell (shoulder) is listed as doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. He was listed as doubtful on Tuesday and didn't play in that game. Fred Vanvleet (hamstring) is going to be sidelined for a bit, so getting Powell back is a must right now. Patrick McCaw is most likely […]

Marcus Morris is Doubtful for Wednesday

New York Knicks forward Marcus Morris (neck) is listed as doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Utah Jazz. He sat out of Tuesday's game due to a sore neck. He could have trade value over the next month, so it wouldn't be surprising to see the Knicks being cautious here. Kevin Knox and Reggie Bullock […]

Fred Vanvleet is Listed as Out for Wednesday

Toronto Raptors guard Fred Vanvleet (hamstring) is listed as out for Wednesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Head coach Nick Nurse said that Vanvleet is going to be out for a little while. Fantasy owners can expect Vanvleet to sit out the next couple of games. Terence Davis, Patrick McCaw, and Matt Thomas will gain […]

Dennis Smith Jr. Might Play on Wednesday

New York Knicks guard Dennis Smith Jr. (oblique) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Utah Jazz. He's missed the last two weeks due to an oblique issue. Frank Ntilikina and Elfrid Payton are in the rotation as well, so Smith won't have a huge role when healthy. He'll likely only see minutes […]

Victor Oladipo is Expected to Return in Late January

Indiana Pacers guard Victor Oladipo (knee, quad) is targeting a return for a home matchup against the Chicago Bulls on January 29. He hasn't played in a year, so the Pacers are going to be cautious with Oladipo. He's worth stashing in leagues with an open IR spot, but it'll take time for him to […]

Mike Conley Was Active During Shootaround

Utah Jazz guard Mike Conley (hamstring) was seen active during Wednesday's shootaround. He won't play in Wednesday's contest, but it appears he's making progress towards a return. Joe Ingles and Jordan Clarkson will continue to pick up more minutes until Conley returns. Ingles has been a reliable fantasy asset most games. Conley remains without a […]

Kemba Walker is Questionable for Wednesday

Boston Celtics guard Kemba Walker (illness) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. He's missed each of the last three games and has been sidelined a week. More information should be known following shootaround on Wednesday. Marcus Smart will return to the second unit once Walker is ready to play […]

Danilo Gallinari Won't Play on Tuesday

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Danilo Gallinari (calf) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He played 29 minutes on Monday, but appears to have suffered a right calf contusion in the process. Darius Bazley and Mike Muscala should see increased playing time on Tuesday. Neither player is going to have enough […]

Nerlens Noel is Ruled Out for Tuesday

Oklahoma City Thunder center Nerlens Noel (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He suffered a left ankle sprain on Saturday and was unable to play on Monday. Mike Muscala played 13 minutes in his absence on Monday, but he's not going to have much fantasy value going forward.

Bradley Beal is Questionable on Wednesday

Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal (leg) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Orlando Magic. He's missed each of the last three games due to right leg soreness. Gary Payton, Ish Smith, Jordan McRae, and Troy Brown have seen increased playing time in the absence of Beal. Brown has the most fantasy upside […]
