Iman Shumpert Will Rest on Sunday
Sacramento Kings guard/forward Iman Shumpert (rest) will sit out of Sunday's game against the Utah Jazz. Shumpert will rest during the second game of the back-to-back set. Bogdan Bogdanovic and Justin Jackson will see increased playing time. Shumpert has been surprisingly good this season and is worth a look in most formats.

Tony Parker is Ruled Out for Sunday
Charlotte Hornets point guard Tony Parker (ribs) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. It's not a good sign when a player gets ruled out a full day in advance. He missed Friday's contest and could be looking at an extended absence. Malik Monk should benefit from this, but he didn't […]

Michael Kidd-Gilchrist is Questionable for Sunday
Charlotte Hornets forward Michael Kidd-Gilchrist (ankle) is considered questionable for Sunday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. He's missed five straight games, but MKG said he was targeting a return late this week. Miles Bridges and Dwayne Bacon have been playing extended minutes with MKG out of the rotation.

Dwight Powell Ruled Out on Saturday
Dallas Mavericks forward/center Dwight Powell (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Boston Celtics. This marks the third straight game that Powell has missed and there are no reports of him getting closer to a return. Dorian Finney-Smith has been playing heavy minutes as a starter, but doesn't offer much fantasy value.

Dennis Smith Jr. is Questionable Against Celtics
Dallas Mavericks point guard Dennis Smith Jr. (wrist) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Boston Celtics. He was considered questionable on Wednesday as well, but he did play. Although, he played just 19 minutes and didn't do much to contribute. Jalen Brunson, J.J. Barea, and Devin Harris would see extended minutes if […]

Wesley Matthews is Questionable Saturday
Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Wesley Matthews (hamstring) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Boston Celtics. Matthews is reportedly making solid progress despite missing three games due to this lingering hamstring issue. He appears to be getting closer to a return, but none of the Mavs players really benefit from the loss of Matthews, so hopefully […]

Anthony Davis is Questionable on Saturday
New Orleans Pelicans forward/center Anthony Davis (hip) is considered questionable for Saturday's game against the Washington Wizards. Davis was injured during Friday's contest, but he did return to the game. However, it's a back-to-back contest, so the Pelicans may want to be cautious with their superstar. Fantasy owners will need to check back closer to […]

Gary Harris is Questionable Saturday
Denver Nuggets guard Gary Harris (ankle) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He suffered the injury on Friday, but Harris said on Friday that he planned to play Saturday. It's a back-to-back set, so it wouldn't be surprising to see the Nuggets be cautious here. Malik Beasley and Monte […]

Dwight Howard is Questionable on Saturday
Washington Wizards center Dwight Howard (back) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Howard sat out on Friday, so there is a good chance that he'll sit out again on Saturday. Thomas Bryant has been starting for Howard lately, but he's not going to be a fantasy asset. Markieff Morris […]

Chris Paul is Resting on Saturday
Houston Rockets point guard Chris Paul (rest) won't play in Saturday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Rockets are playing the second game of a back-to-back set on Saturday, so they want to rest Paul to keep him healthy. Eric Gordon is expected to draw the start and Michael Carter-Williams should see increased playing time […]

Hassan Whiteside is Not on Injury Report
Miami Heat center Hassan Whiteside (knee) is not listed on the injury report for Friday's game against the Chicago Bulls. Whiteside sat out of Wednesday's practice, so there was some concern about his troublesome knee. It appears that Whiteside is fine, so fantasy owners don't have anything to worry about at the moment.

Josh Hart is Questionable on Friday
Los Angeles Lakers guard Josh Hart (ankle) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Utah Jazz. It sounds like he suffered a strained left ankle tendon during Wednesday's contest. It wouldn't be surprising to see the Lakers be cautious and let Hart rest on Friday. He's not doing much this season and belongs […]

Draymond Green Listed as Out on Friday
Golden State Warriors forward/center Draymond Green (toe) is listed as out for Friday's game versus the Portland Trail Blazers. He's missed the last two games and it wouldn't be surprising to see him miss the back-to-back weekend set. Jordan Bell, Kevon Looney, and Jonas Jerebko will split up the minutes.

OG Anunoby is Probable on Friday
Toronto Raptors forward OG Anunoby (wrist) is probable for Friday's game against the Washington Wizards. He's missed the last three games, but is on track to return versus Washington. C.J. Miles (groin) is available as well, so that could take away some of Anunoby's playing time. Neither player is much of a fantasy option right […]
Andy Webb
C.J. Miles Will Play on Friday
Toronto Raptors guard/forward C.J. Miles (groin) is available for Friday's game against the Washington Wizards. Miles has missed the last five games, but will return for this one. However, Miles wasn't doing much with his playing time while healthy. He's averaging less than five points per game, so he can be avoided in most fantasy […]
Andy Webb
Al Horford Ruled Out on Friday
Boston Celtics forward/center Al Horford (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. This is a bit surprising because he played on Wednesday and looked fine. Possibly the Celtics are just being cautious and resting Horford against the struggling Hawks. Regardless, Aron Baynes and Daniel Theis will see additional playing time […]

Dwight Howard Ruled Out Friday
Washington Wizards center Dwight Howard (soreness) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Toronto Raptors. This will be the second straight game that Howard has missed. Thomas Bryant scored seven points with three rebounds during his start on Tuesday. Markieff Morris played an extended role off the bench, so he's the better fantasy […]

Victor Oladipo Ruled Out on Friday
Indiana Pacers guard Victor Oladipo (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. He's reportedly feeling better, but will miss his third straight game on Friday. Tyreke Evans has started the last two games, so expect him to start again. He's been decent in those contests, but probably not worth […]
Andy Webb
Myles Turner, Domantas Sabonis Questionable on Friday
Indiana Pacers forward/centers Myles Turner (ankle) and Domantas Sabonis (ankle) are listed as questionable for Friday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Turner is reportedly dealing with a minor ankle issue, but the Pacers want to remain cautious. However, Turner was able to play through the issue on Wednesday. Kyle O'Quinn would likely draw the […]

Alex Abrines Expected to Play on Friday
Oklahoma City Thunder guard Alex Abrines (illness) is expected to play in Friday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Abrines is reportedly going to give it a go on Friday, according to Brett Dawson. Terrance Ferguson (ankle) and Hamidou Diallo (ankle) have both been ruled out for this contest. Abrines should see extended playing time, assuming […]

Omari Spellman is Available on Friday
Atlanta Hawks forward Omari Spellman (hip) will be available for Friday's game against the Boston Celtics. Alex Len (back) remains questionable for this contest, but did go through shootaround. Alex Poythress (ankle) has already been ruled out for this contest. Spellman should see plenty of minutes off the bench if Len sits out.

Draymond Green Status is Unclear for Friday
Golden State Warriors forward/center Draymond Green (toe) is questionable for Friday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. The Warriors aren't practicing on Thursday, so Green won't get any practice time before Friday's contest. There's a chance that Green sits out the next few games because he won't be able to practice. Jordan Bell, Kevon Looney, […]
Andy Webb
Willy Hernangomez is Probable for Friday
Charlotte Hornets forward Willy Hernangomez (ankle) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He sat out of Wednesday's game, but it appears that his ankle injury is minor. Frank Kaminsky could move out of the rotation entirely if Hernangomez returns on Friday.
Andy Webb
Michael Kidd-Gilchrist Ruled Out on Friday
Charlotte Hornets forward Michael Kidd-Gilchrist (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. This will be his fifth straight game sidelined, so it seems unlikely that he'll be ready for Sunday's matchup against the Hawks. It's unclear how close MKG is to returning. Miles Bridges and Dwayne Bacon should see […]
Andy Webb
Hamidou Diallo Will Undergo Further Testing
Oklahoma City Thunder guard Hamidou Diallo (ankle) will undergo further testing after suffering a left ankle sprain on Thursday. Diallo left Thursday's game on crutches and in a walking boot. Further testing will determine how much time Diallo is going to miss. Terrance Ferguson (ankle), Alex Abrines (illness), and Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot would see increased playing […]
Andy Webb
C.J. Miles is Probable on Friday
Toronto Raptors forward C.J. Miles (groin) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Washington Wizards. He's missed the last five games, so expect Miles to be on a minutes limit, assuming he returns on Friday. Delon Wright should see his minutes decrease in the teens once Miles returns. Neither player is worth owning […]
Andy Webb
Victor Oladipo is Questionable for Friday
Indiana Pacers guard Victor Oladipo (knee) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. He's missed the last two games, but Oladipo's knee issue was not considered serious. There should be more information after shootaround, so fantasy owners will have to be patient. Tyreke Evans should continue to draw starts until […]
Andy Webb
Pau Gasol Remains Sidelined on Friday
San Antonio Spurs forward/center Pau Gasol (foot) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers. This will be the ninth straight game that Gasol has missed. He's doubtful for Saturday's game against the Bucks as well. LaMarcus Aldridge and Jakob Poeltl will continue to play extended minutes with Gasol sidelined.
Andy Webb
OG Anunoby is Probable for Friday
Toronto Raptors forward OG Anunoby (wrist) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Washington Wizards. He's missed the last three games while dealing with a sore wrist. Pascal Siakam would lose a few minutes if Anunoby does return to the rotation. However, healthy or not, fantasy owners can avoid Anunoby.
Andy Webb
Domantas Sabonis is Questionable for Friday
Indiana Pacers forward/center Domantas Sabonis (ankle) is being listed as questionable for Friday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Sabonis has been bothered by this ankle issue for over a week. More information should be known after shootaround. Myles Turner and Kyle O'Quinn would gain playing time if Sabonis is forced to sit out.
