Detroit Pistons forward Markieff Morris (illness) will play in Wednesday's preseason game against the Charlotte Hornets. Morris has been dealing with bronchitis, but appears to be over it now.

Dennis Smith Jr. Should be Fine for Wednesday

New York Knicks guard Dennis Smith Jr. (back) is listed as probable for Wednesday's preseason game against the Atlanta Hawks. He missed the last two preseason contests due to a lower back strain.

Nikola Vucevic, Terrence Ross Scrimmage on Tuesday

Orlando Magic center Nikola Vucevic (ankle) and guard Terrence Ross (ankle) were able to go through a team scrimmage on Tuesday. Both players missed Sunday's preseason contest due to minor ankle injuries. The fact they were able to get through the scrimmage means they should be fine in a few days. Vucevic and Ross should […]

Evan Fournier Played in Tuesday's Scrimmage

Orlando Magic guard Evan Fournier (back) was able to participate in some of Tuesday's scrimmage. Fournier admitted that he was very sore after going through the scrimmage on Tuesday. There is a good chance that the Magic have Fournier sit out for the rest of the preseason. He'll have late round value in most standard […]

Kevin Huerter Ruled Out for Wednesday's Preseason Game

Atlanta Hawks guard Kevin Huerter (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's preseason game against the New York Knicks. Huerter has been dealing with knee soreness throughout the preseason.

Blake Griffin is Dealing with Hamstring Issues

Detroit Pistons forward Blake Griffin (hamstring) has been ruled out for Tuesday's preseason game against the Philadelphia 76ers.

Golden State Warriors center Kevon Looney (hamstring) has been ruled out for the rest of the preseason. However, Looney wants to be ready to play in the regular season opener on October 24.

Andre Drummond, Blake Griffin Out on Tuesday

Detroit Pistons center Andre Drummond (rest) and forward Blake Griffin (hamstring) will not suit up for Tuesday's preseason game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Both players should be fine for the regular season, but the Pistons don't want to push them in the preseason. Thon Maker and Christian Wood will see more minutes in Tuesday's contest. […]

Jordan Bell Will Make Preseason Debut Tuesday

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Jordan Bell (calf) will be available for Tuesday's preseason game against the Indiana Pacers. Bell has been dealing with a left calf issue, but the Wolves should be able to get him into the game on Tuesday. However, Bell is going to have limited value even when healthy. He's worth looking at […]

De'Aaron Fox Won't Play in Wednesday's Exhibition

Sacramento Kings point guard De'Aaron Fox (back) won't play in Wednesday's exhibition versus the Melbourne United. Fox said his back was a little tight, so the team will hold him out of this meaningless game. However, Fox is expected to be fine for the regular season opener. He has great upside and makes for an […]

Devin Booker Will Play in Preseason Contest Monday

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker will suit up for Monday's preseason contest against the Denver Nuggets. Booker sat out the last two preseason games due to rest, but he'll get in some minutes here. It's unclear how much Booker is going to play in this one. He'll have great upside in fantasy leagues, but may […]

Grayson Allen Will Start in Monday's Contest

Memphis Grizzlies guard Grayson Allen will jump into the starting five for Monday's preseason game against the Charlotte Hornets. Dillon Brooks normally starts, but head coach Taylor Jenkins is making a switch here. Allen has played well as the sixth man in the preseason, but we'll see how he plays in the starting five. Fantasy […]

Daniel Theis Could Begin the Season as Starter

Boston Celtics center Daniel Theis may begin the regular season as the starting center in Boston. Head coach Brad Stevens is not ready to commit to a starting center just yet.

Jonas Valanciunas Wants to Play in Season Opener

Memphis Grizzlies center Jonas Valanciunas (ankle) said his goal is to be ready for the regular season opener against the Miami Heat on October 23.

Otherwise, […]

Evan Turner Should Be Available on Monday

Atlanta Hawks guard/forward Evan Turner (Achilles) is expected to play during Monday's preseason game against the Miami Heat.

He'll be a better option in deep […]

Frank Ntilikina Doesn't Practice on Monday

New York Knicks point guard Frank Ntilikina (groin) did not suit up for Monday's practice. Ntilikina missed 31 of the final 33 games of the regular season last year because of a groin issue. He's battling Dennis Smith Jr. and Elfrid Payton for guard minutes, so he can't afford to miss time. Most likely this […]

Anthony Davis Should Be Fine Soon

Los Angeles Lakers forward Anthony Davis (thumb) had his MRI come back clean on Monday, so that's great news for fantasy owners and the organization. Davis is dealing with a Grade 1 thumb sprain, so it wouldn't be surprising to see him sit out the rest of the preseason. He has been ruled out of […]

Emmanuel Mudiay Expected to Suit Up Monday

Utah Jazz guard Emmanuel Mudiay (thigh) will be available for Monday's preseason game against the Sacramento Kings. This will be Mudiay's preseason debut after missing some time due to a thigh issue.

Jarrett Allen Has Team Option Picked Up

Brooklyn Nets center Jarrett Allen had his 2020-2021 team option picked up by the organization on Monday. He's been alternating starts at the center position with DeAndre Jordan during the preseason.

Kevon Looney, Alec Burks Remain Out on Monday

Golden State Warriors center Kevon Looney (hamstring) and guard/forward Alec Burks (ankle) will both sit out of Monday's preseason game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Both players still aren't practicing, which is a bit concerning with the regular season fast approaching. Looney has some upside in fantasy leagues, so he's worth looking at, but Burks […]

Dario Saric Could Miss Monday's Contest

Phoenix Suns forward Dario Saric (quad) is questionable to suit up for Monday's preseason game against the Denver Nuggets. Saric is dealing with a bruised quad, but that shouldn't linger into the regular season. The Suns may have Saric sit out in the meaningless game for rest. Frank Kaminsky would see more minutes coming his […]

Landry Shamet Exits Early on Sunday

Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Landry Shamet (wrist) exited early during Sunday's preseason contest. Head coach Doc Rivers downplayed the injury after the game. Rivers said that if it was the playoffs then Shamet would be out there, but there is no reason to push it in the preseason. Shamet should be fine, and is someone […]

A.J. Brown Hauls in Two Receptions in Loss

Tennessee Titans wide receiver A.J. Brown has been quiet over the last two games after a two touchdown performance in Week 4. Brown caught two of his four targets in the 16-0 loss to the Denver Broncos in Week 6. The Titans continue to have struggles on offense and that has hurt Brown's value. Fantasy […]

Corey Davis is Quiet Against Denver

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Corey Davis was quiet once again in the 16-0 loss to the Denver Broncos in Week 6. Davis caught three of his five targets for 36 yards on Sunday. Davis has put together one good game all season and is making it difficult on fantasy owners to even trust him. The […]
