Jonas Valanciunas Out for Rest of the Season

Memphis Grizzlies center Jonas Valanciunas (ankle) is going to miss the rest of the regular season after suffering a Grade 2 right ankle sprain. Luckily, no surgery is required, but Valanciunas will miss the last five games. Ivan Rabb is likely going to finish out the season as the starting center. He has value in […]

Al Horford Expected to Play on Monday

Boston Celtics center Al Horford (knee) is expected to suit up for Monday's game against the Miami Heat, according to head coach Brad Stevens. Horford was considered probable for this one, so fantasy owners should expect him to suit up. Daniel Theis and Aron Baynes will go back to their normal roles and lose a […]

Wesley Matthews Won't Play on Monday

Indiana Pacers guard/forward Wesley Matthews (hamstring) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Detroit Pistons. He'll join teammate Darren Collison (groin) on the sideline for this one. Both players are considered day-to-day, so fantasy owners shouldn't be too worried. Cory Joseph and Tyreke Evans are expected to jump into the starting five. Evans […]

Darren Collison Ruled Out on Monday

Indiana Pacers guard Darren Collison (groin) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Collison was dealing with a quad injury and now apparently suffered a groin issue. Cory Joseph is expected to draw the start and see plenty of minutes, but he doesn't have great upside.

Jimmy Butler Ruled Out for Monday

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Jimmy Butler (back) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. Butler tweaked his back during Sunday's contest and will sit this one out as a precaution. T.J. McConnell and James Ennis will see more minutes coming their way. McConnell is the better option, but he could be a […]

Luka Doncic Doubtful for Monday

Dallas Mavericks forward Luka Doncic (thigh) is listed as doubtful for Monday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. The Mavs are going to take the cautious approach here, so fantasy owners should prepare to be without Doncic. Courtney Lee and Trey Burke will split up the minutes without Doncic in the rotation. Burke is the better […]

Deandre Ayton Ruled Out on Monday

Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. This is not surprising news as Ayton was expected to sit this one out. Richaun Holmes will draw the start at center and is someone who should be highly considered in DFS contests for Monday.

Kyle Korver Ruled Out on Monday

Utah Jazz guard/forward Kyle Korver (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. That means Thabo Sefolosha and Royce O'Neale will split up Korver's minutes. O'Neale has been difficult to trust at times, but if given the start he's worth looking at for DFS contests on Monday.

LeBron James is Done for the Season

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (groin) has reportedly been shut down for the rest of the regular season. James continues to deal with a groin issue that has sidelined him for a good amount of the season. James played in just 55 games this season which is a career-low for him. The Lakers will […]

Otto Porter Remains Sidelined on Saturday

Chicago Bulls forward Otto Porter (shoulder) will remain sidelined for Saturday's game against the Toronto Raptors. The Bulls don't have much incentive to play Porter, so he's likely going to be shut down for the season. Shaquille Harrison is going to continue to benefit without Porter and is worth owning in most fantasy leagues. Wayne […]

Kris Dunn Ruled Out for Saturday

Chicago Bulls guard Kris Dunn (back) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Toronto Raptors. The Bulls don't have much incentive to win, so they will likely continue to sit their banged up players. Looks like Dunn, Zach LaVine (thigh) and Otto Porter (shoulder) are done for the season. Ryan Arcidiacono is likely […]

Justise Winslow Won't Play on Saturday

Miami Heat guard/forward Justise Winslow (thigh) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the New York Knicks and likely won't play on Monday. He continues to deal with a lingering thigh issue, so it's unclear when he'll return to the court. Goran Dragic will benefit the most while Dwyane Wade and Dion Waiters will […]

Josh Richardson is Out Next Two Games

Miami Heat guard/forward Josh Richardson (heel) has been ruled out for the next two games. He will not play in Saturday's contest or Monday versus the Celtics. Surprisingly, Duncan Robinson saw the biggest increase in playing time without Richardson in the lineup. Dion Waiters and James Johnson should see more minutes as well.

Joel Embiid Ruled Out for Next Three Games

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (rest) has been ruled out for the current road trip and that means he'll miss the next three games. That is a big blow to fantasy owners that were leaning on Embiid's fantasy production. Boban Marjanovic and Jonah Bolden will see increased minutes without Embiid, but neither player will produce […]

Jayson Tatum is Questionable for Saturday

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (illness) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. The Celtics are already going to be shorthanded with Kyrie Irving (rest, back) and Al Horford (knee) sidelined on Saturday. The Celtics will have to lean on Gordon Hayward if Tatum is unable to play. Jaylen Brown, Marcus […]

Kyrie Irving Ruled Out Saturday

Boston Celtics guard Kyrie Irving (back) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. This is more of a rest move than "back soreness" since Irving played 35 minutes on Friday. Terry Rozier will draw the start at point guard and be a popular DFS option for Saturday.

Al Horford Ruled Out for Saturday

Boston Celtics center Al Horford (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. Horford continues to deal with a lingering knee issue, so the Celtics are going to play it safe and let him rest. Aron Baynes and Daniel Theis will split up a majority of the minutes at center. Baynes […]

Zach LaVine Won't Play on Saturday

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (thigh) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Toronto Raptors. This is not a surprising announcement since LaVine was listed as doubtful on Friday. This marks his fifth straight game sidelined and there's a good chance he's done for the season with the Bulls tanking. The Bulls will […]

Anthony Davis Could Sit on Sunday

New Orleans Pelicans forward/center Anthony Davis (back) is likely going to be a game-time decision for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers, according to Jim Eichenhofer. He's currently listed as questionable and has missed the last two games due to back spasms. Jahlil Okafor and Cheick Diallo would see additional minutes once again if […]

Luka Doncic Ruled Out for Sunday

Dallas Mavericks forward Luka Doncic (thigh) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder, according to head coach Rick Carlisle. Doncic is dealing with a right thigh contusion that he suffered during Thursday's game. It appears the Mavs are going to take the cautious approach and let Doncic rest. The Mavs […]

Trevor Ariza Won't Play on Sunday

Washington Wizards forward Trevor Ariza (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Denver Nuggets. This marks the third game in a row that Ariza has been sidelined. The lingering groin issue could cause Ariza to miss the rest of the regular season. Troy Brown and Jordan McRae will see increased playing time without […]

Josh Jackson Will Play Saturday

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Josh Jackson (ankle) will return to action against the Memphis Grizzlies on Saturday. Head coach Igor Kokoskov said Jackson practice on Friday and is expected to play on Saturday. Dragan Bender has been starting in place of Jackson, so he'll likely lose minutes and head to the bench.

Patrick McCaw Out Three Games

Toronto Raptors guard Patrick McCaw (thumb) will miss the next three weeks of action after suffering a sprained right thumb. There is a chance that McCaw could miss even more time than that. Fantasy owners can go ahead and drop McCaw, but he didn't offer much in terms of fantasy production. Norman Powell will see […]

Josh Jackson is Questionable for Saturday

Phoenix Suns forward Josh Jackson (ankle) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Jackson has been called questionable the last three games, so it's unclear if he's making any progress. Mikal Bridges and Troy Daniels will continue to benefit if Jackson can't play.

Kawhi Leonard is Listed as Out on Saturday

Toronto Raptors forward Kawhi Leonard (personal) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Chicago Bulls. This is not a normal rest game, so Leonard must be dealing with some personal issues. Normal Powell, Fred Vanvleet, and Jeremy Lin should see more minutes. VanVleet is the best DFS option here without Leonard.

Joel Embiid Won't Play Saturday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (rest) won't play in Saturday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. The playoffs are getting closer which means that star players are going to rest more and that is the case here. Boban Marjanovic is expected to draw the start and be a solid DFS option without Embiid in the rotation.

Nemanja Bjelica is Listed as Out on Saturday

Sacramento Kings forward Nemanja Bjelica (illness) is listed as out for Saturday's game against the Houston Rockets. Bjelica was unable to play in the second half of Thursday's game due to a stomach virus. Bogdan Bogdanovic should benefit the most without Bjelica in the lineup, but Harrison Barnes and Marvin Bagley could see some extra […]

Jonas Valanciunas is Probable for Saturday

Memphis Grizzlies center Jonas Valanciunas (abdominal) is probable for Saturday's game against the Phoenix Suns. The Grizzlies are playing in a back-to-back set, so the team may decide to rest Valanciunas on Sunday if he plays Saturday. Ivan Rabb and Bruno Caboclo would benefit if Valanciunas is forced to sit out.

Trevor Ariza Ruled Out for Friday

Washington Wizards forward Trevor Ariza (groin) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Utah Jazz. Ariza continues to deal with lingering groin issues, so it's safe to assume he's going to be shut down for the season. Troy Brown Jr. and Jordan McRae are going to be worth a look with Ariza sidelined.

LeBron James is Probable for Friday

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (groin) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. He was unable to play in Wednesday's game, but did receive treatment, so it sounds like he's good to go now. He shouldn't be limited at all and fantasy owners can go ahead and plug him into […]
