Jimmy Butler Won't Play on Wednesday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Jimmy Butler (personal) won't play in Wednesday's game against the Utah Jazz. Butler is reportedly refusing to play in an attempt to force Minnesota to trade him. This sounds like Butler is going to sit out until he's out of Minnesota. That is not good news for fantasy owners because it's unclear […]

Derrick Favors Available on Wednesday

Utah Jazz forward/center Derrick Favors (knee) is available to play in Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Favors is available to play, but he hasn't be officially announced back in the starting lineup. Assuming Favors plays, Jae Crowder would move back to the bench. Georges Niang would lose almost all his minutes and value.

Anthony Davis is Questionable on Wednesday

New Orleans Pelicans forward Anthony Davis (elbow) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Golden State Warriors. Davis looked good during shootaround, according to Will Guillory. The Pelicans are likely going to wait until closer to tip-off before announcing whether or not Davis will play. Julius Randle and Nikola Mirotic would see increased playing time […]

Dirk Nowitzki is Not Close to Returning

Dallas Mavericks forward/center Dirk Nowitzki (ankle) said he's measuring his return in weeks, not days. That's not an encouraging sign from the 40-year-old veteran. Harrison Barnes and DeAndre Jordan are going to remain in the starting five for the foreseeable future. Dwight Powell and Maxi Kleber will likely lose some playing time once Nowitzki returns. […]

Josh Reynolds is TD-Dependent Option

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Josh Reynolds scored two touchdowns in the victory over the Packers in Week 8. He caught three passes for 42 yards and two TDs, but could lose most of his fantasy value this week. Cooper Kupp (knee) is questionable to play, so Reynolds would lose basically all his value once […]

Robert Woods Should Get Back on Track in Week 9

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Robert Woods has been held to fewer than 80 yards in each of his last two games. However, he heads into a matchup against the Saints who have allowed the most fantasy points to wide receivers this season, according to Yahoo. They've allowed 100 yards and a touchdown to six […]

Brandin Cooks Has Excellent Matchup

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Brandin Cooks looks to get back on track against the shaky Saints secondary in Week 9. New Orleans has allowed the most fantasy points to wide receivers this season, according to Yahoo. The Saints have allowed 100 yards and a touchdown to six different wide receivers this season. Cooks has […]

Todd Gurley Faces Toughest Challenge Yet

Los Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley is an elite fantasy option each and every week. However, he could have some difficulty finding room to run against a Saints defense that hasn't allowed a RB to rush for over 70 yards a game yet. Although, Gurley has 11 touchdowns and is seemingly unstoppable this season. […]

Jared Goff Should Remain Solid Against the Saints

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff bounced back in Week 8 after two lackluster fantasy performances. Goff has not played overly well on the road this season. However, he heads into a matchup against the Saints who have allowed the third most fantasy points to quarterbacks this season, according to Yahoo. Goff doesn't have the […]

Iman Shumpert is Resting on Tuesday

Sacramento Kings guard/forward Iman Shumpert (rest) will not play in Tuesday's game against the Orlando Magic. Shumpert has a history with injuries, so the Kings just want to be cautious with him. It sounds like the Kings are going to continue resting Shumpert in back-to-back contests. Justin Jackson and Buddy Hield will see increased playing […]

OG Anunoby Won't Play on Tuesday

Toronto Raptors forward OG Anunoby (personal) has been ruled out of Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Anunoby has been away from the team since Friday and there have been little details regarding the reasoning of his absence. Pascal Siakam has seen extra minutes with Anunoby out of the rotation. Siakam played fantastic on Monday, […]

Luc Mbah a Moute Ruled Out on Tuesday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Luc Mbah a Moute (knee) has been ruled out of Tuesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Head coach Doc Rivers said that he is hopeful Mbah a Moute can return on Thursday. It appears he's close to a return, but does not have basically any fantasy value even when healthy. […]

Andrew Wiggins Listed as Questionable for Wednesday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Andrew Wiggins (quad) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Utah Jazz. Wiggins has been sidelined the last three games and it's unclear how much progress he's made during that time. Josh Okogie would likely draw another start if Wiggins is forced out of action again. Okogie is a cheap […]

Kelly Oubre is Questionable for Tuesday

Washington Wizards forward Kelly Oubre Jr. (illness) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Markieff Morris (concussion) has already been ruled out for this contest. Jeff Green would likely see heavy minutes if both Oubre is sidelined as well on Tuesday. Green would be an interesting DFS option if Oubre sits […]

Markieff Morris Ruled Out on Tuesday

Washington Wizards forward Markieff Morris (concussion) has been ruled out of Tuesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Morris has entered the NBA's concussion protocol, and must be cleared by doctor's before being allowed to play again. Jeff Green and Jason Smith could be looking at heavy minutes in this one. Green might be someone worth […]

James Johnson Listed as Out on Tuesday

Miami Heat forward James Johnson (hernia) is listed as out for Tuesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Johnson has been sidelined all season long and there hasn't been many updates on his status. Hopefully he's moving in the right direction, but fantasy owners might just need to stay patient.

Nerlens Noel Remains Questionable on Tuesday

Oklahoma City Thunder forward/center Nerlens Noel (ankle) remains listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. He tweaked his ankle during Sunday's victory. He drew the start for Steven Adams (calf) on Sunday versus the Suns. Jerami Grant would likely draw the start if both Noel and Adams sit out. Noel would […]

Steven Adams is Questionable Against Clippers

Oklahoma City Thunder center Steven Adams (calf) remains questionable for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. Adams did not play on Sunday, but was reportedly on the floor for shootaround on Tuesday. Nerlens Noel (ankle) is expected to draw the start if Adams is unable to play. Jerami Grant would see a huge boost […]

Fred VanVleet Remains Questionable on Tuesday

Toronto Raptors point guard Fred Vanvleet (toe) remains questionable for Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He's missed the last three games, but was able to get through a limited practice on Sunday. Delon Wright (groin) would serve as the backup point guard if VanVleet is sidelined for the fourth straight game. However, Wright does […]

De'Aaron Fox is Questionable for Tuesday

Sacramento Kings point guard De'Aaron Fox (back) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Orlando Magic. Fox reportedly injured his back in the fourth quarter of Monday's contest. Hopefully it's just a minor issue because Fox has been fantastic this season. Yogi Ferrell and Frank Mason would split up the minutes at point […]

Dillon Brooks Remains Probable for Tuesday

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Dillon Brooks (foot) is listed as probable for Tuesday's game against the Washington Wizards. Brooks has only missed one game this season despite dealing with a sore right foot since the season opener. He's most likely going to play on Tuesday, but has very limited fantasy value off the bench behind Kyle […]

Alec Burks Listed as Questionable for Wednesday

Utah Jazz guard Alec Burks (hand) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Burks was cleared to play in Sunday's contest, but did not see any time on the court. Burks dropped 13 points in the regular season opener, but hasn't done anything since then. He does see enough playing time […]

Wilson Chandler Will Remain Out on Tuesday

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Wilson Chandler (hamstring) will remain on the sideline for Tuesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. Head coach Brett Brown said that Chandler is not far away from making his season debut. Chandler is getting closer to a return, but he's not worth rostering in most formats. However, he could take minutes away […]

Maurice Harkless Won't Play on Tuesday

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Maurice Harkless (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Houston Rockets. Head coach Terry Stotts said he expected Harkless to be available for this game. Clearly Harkless has suffered a setback after shootaround and the team wants to hold him out of this one. Evan Turner and Jake […]

Jae Crowder is Probable for Wednesday

Utah Jazz forward Jae Crowder (ankle) is probable for Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Crowder tweaked his ankle during Sunday's contest, but it sounds like a minor issue. He may end up drawing the start for Derrick Favors (knee) who is currently listed as questionable. Fantasy owners should check back after shootaround for more […]

Derrick Favors is Questionable for Wednesday

Utah Jazz forward/center Derrick Favors (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Favors sat out on Sunday and continues to deal with left knee soreness. Jae Crowder would benefit the most if Favors is forced to the sidelines once again. Fantasy owners should have a better idea of his status after shootaround […]

Luc Mbah a Moute Could Play on Tuesday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Luc Mbah a Moute (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Mbah a Moute has been sitting out the last two games due to a lingering knee issue. Danilo Gallinari and Montrezl Harrell have seen increased playing time without Mbah a Moute in the lineup. Harrell is […]

James Ennis Won't Play on Tuesday

Houston Rockets guard/forward James Ennis (hamstring) will remain on the sidelines for Tuesday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Ennis has a Grade 2 hamstring strain, so he could be looking at missing multiple weeks. Carmelo Anthony is going to benefit the most from this. Ennis does not have a timetable for his return and […]

OG Anunoby Won't Play on Monday

Toronto Raptors forward OG Anunoby (personal) is out of Monday's starting lineup against the Milwaukee Bucks. He was expected to return, but he'll be sidelined along with Kawhi Leonard (rest). Pascal Siakam saw a season-high 37 minutes on Friday when Anunoby was out. That is likely going to happen again, so DFS players may want […]

Rodions Kurucs is Sitting Out on Monday

Brooklyn Nets forward Rodions Kurucs (ankle) will not play in Monday's game against the New York Knicks. The second round pick was impressive during the preseason and early in the regular season, but remains sidelined for this contest. Rondae Hollis-Jefferson is back in the rotation, so that's going to kill pretty much all of the […]
