Ben Simmons Ruled Out for Sunday

Philadelphia 76ers guard Ben Simmons (shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. This is not surprising news, since Simmons was expected to miss at least three games. Raul Neto was solid during their loss to the Nuggets on Friday, but is only worth a look in deep leagues while Simmons […]

J.J. Redick Jumps Into Starting Five

New Orleans Pelicans guard J.J. Redick will join the starting five for Saturday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Redick has been awful this season, but will start in place of Lonzo Ball (groin) on Saturday. Josh Hart, Frank Jackson and Nickeil Alexander-Walker are all better fantasy options than Redick. Hart is the best bet for […]

Eric Gordon Will Play Against Bulls

Houston Rockets guard Eric Gordon (hamstring) will suit up for Saturday's game against the Chicago Bulls. Gordon was listed as questionable going in after missing Wednesday's contest. He'll be out there on Saturday, but Gordon has been awful this season. Danuel House is a better fantasy option right now.

Lonzo Ball is Sitting Out on Saturday

New Orleans Pelicans guard Lonzo Ball (groin) will sit out of Saturday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Ball played on Friday after being listed as probable, but only scored five points in 23 minutes. The Pelicans are likely just being cautious since it's a back-to-back set. Frank Jackson and Nickeil Alexander-Walker will benefit with Ball […]

Kristaps Porzingis Will Rest on Saturday

Dallas Mavericks forward Kristaps Porzingis (rest) won't suit up for Saturday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Porzingis played 36 minutes on Friday, so the Mavs will be cautious here. Dwight Powell and Maximilian Kleber will benefit in the absence of Porzingis. Boban Marjanovic might jump into the rotation as well, but Powell and Kleber are […]

Myles Turner Could Suit Up on Sunday

Indiana Pacers forward Myles Turner (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Orlando Magic. He injured his ankle on Oct. 30 and hasn't played since then. He was expected to miss two weeks, but was a game-time decision on Friday. Turner is getting closer to playing, but fantasy owners will likely have […]

Jeremy Lamb Won't Play Against Magic

Indiana Pacers guard Jeremy Lamb (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Orlando Magic. He suffered a sprained left ankle on Tuesday and missing Sunday's game will mark his third straight game sidelined. Aaron Holiday has started the last two games and is worth a look in DFS contests without Lamb available.

Goga Bitadze is Ruled Out for Sunday

Indiana Pacers center Goga Bitadze (head) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Orlando Magic. This marks the second game in a row that Bitadze has been sidelined. He'll need to clear the NBA's concussion protocol before being allowed to play again. He was playing well before the injury, but will lose value […]

Ja Morant Will Rest Saturday

Memphis Grizzlies guard JA Morant (rest) will sit out of Saturday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. Head coach Taylor Jenkins wants to limit Morant's minutes early in the season. Saturday is the second game of a back-to-back set, but the Grizzlies don't play another back-to-back until December. Tyus Jones will start on Saturday and will […]

Kyle Lowry Out Next Two Weeks

Toronto Raptors guard Kyle Lowry (hand) is going to be sidelined the next two weeks after suffering an injury on Friday. Lowry has been diagnosed with a fracture of the distal phalanx of his left thumb. Fred Vanvleet will see all the minutes he can handle, while Norman Powell will see a spike in playing […]

Serge Ibaka Will Undergo MRI

Toronto Raptors forward Serge Ibaka (ankle) will undergo an MRI in Los Angeles and is out indefinitely. Ibaka suffered a sprained right ankle during the first half of Friday's game. He was seen leaving the locker room in a walking boot, so that's not a good sign. Chris Boucher should see increased playing time off […]

Brandon Clarke Won't Play Saturday

Memphis Grizzlies center Brandon Clarke (back) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. Clarke has been battling back soreness over the last month, so the Grizzlies will let him rest here. It's the second game of a back-to-back set, but Clarke did play on Friday. Bruno Caboclo and Kyle Anderson should […]

Mitchell Robinson Won't Suit Up on Sunday

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He suffered a concussion on Wednesday and was unable to suit up for Friday's game. Bobby Portis and Taj Gibson should benefit the most from the loss of Robinson. Gibson could be worth looking at as a […]

Paul George Practices on Saturday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Paul George (shoulder) was able to suit up for practice on Saturday. Head coach Doc Rivers said there is a possibility that George suits up for Monday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He'll likely be limited and eased back into action, but George is getting closer to a return. Fantasy owners […]

Blake Griffin Will Make Season Debut on Monday

Detroit Pistons forward Blake Griffin (knee, hamstring) will make his season debut against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Monday. He was cleared for basketball activities this week. He's been ramping up in practice, but the Pistons will still limit his minutes and games this season. Markieff Morris and Christian Wood will lose minutes and value once […]

Enes Kanter is Sitting Out on Saturday

Boston Celtics center Enes Kanter (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Kanter was practicing earlier this week, but remains sidelined here. The team is hopeful to get Kanter back in the next few games. Daniel Theis will start again, while Robert Williams will see around 20 minutes off […]

Justise Winslow Officially Ruled Out for Friday

Miami Heat guard Justise Winslow (head) has been officially ruled out for Friday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Winslow was placed in the NBA's concussion protocol last night, so it's not surprising to see him sitting out here. Duncan Robinson will draw the start, while Goran Dragic and Tyler Herro get extra minutes off […]

Troy Brown Will Start on Friday

Washington Wizards forward Troy Brown will jump into the starting five for Friday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Brown will get the nod over veteran C.J. Miles. Isaac Bongo is going to lose minutes as well from Brown joining the starting five. Brown is worth adding in most 12-team formats. Head coach Scott Brooks is […]

Aaron Holiday Gets Another Start

Indiana Pacers guard Aaron Holiday will get another chance in the starting five for Friday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Holiday dropped 18 points and did a solid job against Isaiah Thomas on Wednesday. He should see around 30 minutes here and is worth looking at as a cheap DFS option.

Myles Turner Officially Ruled Out for Friday

Indiana Pacers forward Myles Turner (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Turner has been making progress, but the team isn't going to rush him back to the court. However, Turner should be back in the lineup within the next few games. Goga Bitadze (concussion) will join Turner on the […]

Justise Winslow Enters Concussion Protocol

Miami Heat guard Justise Winslow (head) has been placed in the NBA's concussion protocol. The team is hopeful that Winslow doesn't miss much time, but fantasy owners shouldn't expect him to play on Friday. Duncan Robinson will likely jump into the starting five, while Goran Dragic and Tyler Herro will get more chances off the […]

D'Angelo Russell is Probable for Friday

Golden State Warriors guard D'Angelo Russell (ankle) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Russell has missed the last three games due to a right ankle issue. Ky Bowman will head to the bench and lose most of his streaming appeal with Russell starting to the starting five. However, fantasy owners […]

Terrence Ross Ruled Out for Second Straight Game

Orlando Magic guard Terrence Ross (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Ross will miss his second game in a row, but head coach Steve Clifford said Ross might play able to play on Saturday. Michael Carter-Williams played well off the bench on Wednesday and will likely be asked to […]

Myles Turner Has A Chance to Play on Friday

Indiana Pacers forward Myles Turner (ankle) is listed as a game-time decision for Friday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Turner has missed the last four games due to a Grade 1 ankle sprain. Goga Bitadze (concussion) has already been ruled out for this one. Domantas Sabonis will be asked to hold down the fort, assuming […]

Lonzo Ball Will Suit Up on Friday

New Orleans Pelicans guard Lonzo Ball (groin) will be active for Friday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He was listed as probable on the injury report, so it's not surprising to see him suiting up here. He's been reliable for the Pelicans through the first seven games of the season. Fantasy owners can go ahead […]

Shabazz Napier is Expected to Sit Out

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Shabazz Napier (hamstring) is in danger of missing his second straight game on Friday. Napier is a game-time decision, but is listed as doubtful on the injury report. The Wolves will already be without Jeff Teague (illness) on Friday. Jarrett Culver will be asked to step up once again with the Wolves […]

Jeff Teague Has Been Ruled Out for Friday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Jeff Teague (illness) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Golden State Warriors. Teague was unable to play on Wednesday as well, so he'll sit out another game due to illness. Shabazz Napier (hamstring) is doubtful to play in this one, so Jarrett Culver could be looking at another start. […]

Eric Gordon Will Play on Saturday

Houston Rockets guard Eric Gordon (hamstring) will be back in action for Saturday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He suffered a hamstring injury on Monday, but appears to be ready to go on Saturday. It'll only be a one game absence for Gordon, but he's been awful this season. Fantasy owners may want to consider […]

Dennis Smith Jr. Ruled Out for Friday

New York Knicks guard Dennis Smith Jr. (personal) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. Smith has been away from the team due to a death in the family, but rejoined the Knicks on Thursday. The Knicks don't feel that Smith is ready to play yet, so he'll sit this one […]

DeAndre Jordan Ruled Out on Friday

Brooklyn Nets center DeAndre Jordan (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Jordan suffered a sprained left ankle on Monday and has been limited since then. Jarrett Allen should draw the start at center on Friday and will see 30 plus minutes. Nicolas Claxton will see backup minutes off […]
