Cameron Brate Has Tough Matchup in Week 14

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cameron Brate has been a touchdown-dependent player all season long. He almost had no fantasy value through the first half of the season, but the injury to O.J. Howard has helped his value. Brate heads into a matchup against the Saints defense that has held tight ends to under 500 […]

Maximilian Kleber is Questionable on Saturday

Dallas Mavericks forward Maximilian Kleber (toe) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Houston Rockets. Kleber was sidelined by a knee issue last week, so of course another injury bites him. This seems minor, so there is a chance that Kleber can play through it. Dwight Powell and Dorian Finney-Smith would benefit without Kleber on […]

Dirk Nowitzki is Not Ready For Game Action Yet

Dallas Maverick forward/center Dirk Nowitzki (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Houston Rockets. Nowitzki is making progress on his ankle, but is reportedly not in game shape yet. It sounds like the Mavs have not set an official date yet, but Nowitzki should be back possibly next week. However, he won't […]

John Wall is Questionable Against Cavs

Washington Wizards point guard John Wall (illness) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He missed Wednesday's game due to the birth of his child, but he did travel with the team. Wall did not participate in shootaround due to an illness. Tomas Satoransky and Austin Rivers would see increased playing time without […]

Iman Shumpert is Resting on Saturday

Sacramento Kings guard/forward Iman Shumpert (rest) will not play in Saturday's game against the Indiana Pacers. The Kings want to keep Shumpert fresh and rest him, so they can try to avoid any injuries due to fatigue. Bogdan Bogdanovic and Justin Jackson should receive extra minutes with Shumpert sitting out.

Gary Harris Expected to Miss Three to Four Weeks

Denver Nuggets guard Gary Harris (hip) is expected to miss three to four weeks due to a right hip strain. He's been sidelined since he suffered the injury against the Raptors on Monday. Torrey Craig has been drawing starts this week, but hasn't done much his extended playing time. Malik Beasley is playing better with […]

Jamal Murray is Probable on Saturday

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (forearm) is probable for Saturday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. He looked fine on Friday when he dropped 20 points, five rebounds and seven assists in 37 minutes. Murray is going to be asked to do some heavy lifting on offense with Gary Harris (hip) and Paul Millsap (foot) out […]

Rodney Hood is Doubtful on Saturday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Rodney Hood (toe) is listed as doubtful for Saturday's game against the Washington Wizards. Hood left Friday's game due to a right toe sprain and was unable to return. Both Jordan Clarkson and Alec Burks played well on Friday. They should both see increased playing time, assuming Hood sits out. Burks is […]

Domantas Sabonis is Questionable Saturday

Indiana Pacers forward/center Domantas Sabonis (illness) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Sabonis was not able to play during Friday's game due to food poisoning. Kyle O'Quinn played well with extended minutes as he finished with a double double on Friday. Myles Turner and O'Quinn will see increased playing time once again […]

Kris Dunn Won't Play on Saturday

Chicago Bulls guard Kris Dunn (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Boston Celtics. Dunn is getting close to a return, especially with how much he practiced this week. The Bulls play again on Monday, so there is a decent chance that Dunn can return for that one. Ryan Arcidiacono will continue […]

Kyle Anderson, Joakim Noah Are Probable on Saturday

Memphis Grizzlies forward Kyle Anderson (back) and center Joakim Noah (back) are listed as probable for Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Anderson is coming off a fantastic game, so it'd be highly surprising to see him sit this one out. Noah played well during his 17 minutes on Friday. Both players appear to […]

Mike Conley is Probable on Saturday

Memphis Grizzlies point guard Mike Conley (finger) is listed as probable for Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Conley hit just two of his 12 attempts on Friday, so that finger issue could be the reason why Conley struggled. However, he was able to play through it, so he should be able to again […]

Al Horford is Questionable on Saturday

Boston Celtics forward/center Al Horford (knee) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Chicago Bulls. Horford continues to deal with lingering knee issues as he's already missed two games because of it this season. Marcus Morris and Daniel Theis would see significant minutes without Horford on the court. Morris is the better fantasy […]

Brandon Ingram Ruled Out for One Week

Los Angeles Lakers guard/forward Brandon Ingram (ankle) will be sidelined at least one week after an MRI revealed a left ankle sprain. Ingram suffered the injury on Wednesday and was forced to miss Friday's contest because of it. Josh Hart drew the start, but Kentavious Caldwell-Pope saw increased playing time off the bench. Both are […]

Bobby Portis is Questionable on Saturday

Chicago Bulls forward Bobby Portis (knee) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Boston Celtics. He was listed as doubtful for Friday's contest and was ruled out for that one. He's questionable now, so at least that's an upgrade. Portis should be back on the court soon. However, he'll be under a minutes limit once […]

T.J. Warren is Questionable on Friday

Phoenix Suns forward T.J. Warren (ankle) is questionable for Friday's game against the Miami Heat. Warren has missed the last four games, but is questionable for this one, so there is some hope that he'll play. Trevor Ariza (knee) is also questionable for Friday's contest. Josh Jackson would be a busy man with both of […]

Trevor Ariza is Questionable for Friday

Phoenix Suns forward Trevor Ariza (knee) is questionable for Friday's game against the Miami Heat. He has only missed two games this season and both were due to personal reasons. Josh Jackson and Mikal Bridges would get extra minutes if Ariza is unable to play on Friday.

John Wall is Uncertain for Saturday

Washington Wizards point guard John Wall (personal) did not practice on Friday and head coach Scott Brooks has not said whether or not Wall will play on Saturday. Wall did not play on Wednesday because he was away from the team due to the birth of his child. Austin Rivers and Tomas Satoransky would see […]

Dennis Smith Jr. is Listed as Doubtful for Saturday

Dallas Mavericks guard Dennis Smith Jr. (wrist) has been listed as doubtful for Saturday's game against the Houston Rockets. Smith did not play in Wednesday's contest and it appears he's close to missing another game. J.J. Barea and Jalen Brunson would see increased roles without Smith on the court.

Jeremy Lin Has Been Ruled Out on Saturday

Atlanta Hawks guard Jeremy Lin (back) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Denver Nuggets. The Hawks are banged up and will be shorthanded for this contest. Trae Young will be a solid DFS option because he'll see all the minutes he can handle. Deandre Bembry, Tyler Dorsey, and Justin Anderson will see […]

Kris Dunn Ruled Out on Friday

Chicago Bulls guard Kris Dunn (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. There was some hope that Dunn and Bobby Portis (knee) could return to the court on Friday. However, both players will be sidelined for this contest. Dunn did practice four times this week, so it sounds like […]

Marvin Williams is Questionable for Friday

Charlotte Hornets forward Marvin Williams (shoulder) is questionable for Friday's game against the Denver Nuggets. Williams is dealing with a right shoulder strain that he suffered last Sunday. The good news is, Williams was expected to miss and week, but is already questionable for this contest. Fantasy owners will have to wait until closer to […]

Joel Embiid Will Rest on Friday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (rest) will not play in Friday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Embiid is averaging just 13.7 points with horrendous shooting percentages over the last three games. This will be the first time that Embiid has sat out of a game this season. Amir Johnson and Mike Muscala will benefit without […]

Andre Drummond is Probable for Friday

Detroit Pistons center Andre Drummond (shoulder) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Drummond has been dealing with a left shoulder contusion over the last two games. He's averaging just 11.5 points and 7.0 rebounds over those two games. He might not be the best DFS option until he solves this […]

Ish Smith Will Miss Three to Six Weeks

Detroit Pistons guard Ish Smith (groin) will be sidelined three to six weeks after suffering a right adductor muscle tear, according to head coach Dwane Casey. He suffered the injury on Wednesday and had an MRI taken on Thursday. Jose Calderon will take over as the backup behind Reggie Jackson. It's unlikely Calderon has any […]

Khris Middleton is Expected to Play on Friday

Milwaukee Bucks guard/forward Khris Middleton (personal) is expected to play in Friday's game against the Golden State Warriors. Middleton was absent for Wednesday's contest and it's unclear why he was unavailable. However, he is on track to the return to the lineup for Friday. He would resume his normal role in the rotation and play […]

Marvin Bagley is Probable on Friday

Sacramento Kings forward/center Marvin Bagley (back) has been upgraded to probable for Friday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He injured his back on Thursday and has missed two games since then. Nemanja Bjelica and Harry Giles have been picking up the slack without Bagley in the rotation. However, it sounds like Bagley is close to returning, […]

Domantas Sabonis is Questionable Friday

Indiana Pacers forward/center Domantas Sabonis (illness) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Orlando Magic. However, Sabonis has only missed one game this season, so it takes a lot for him to sit out. Myles Turner and Kyle O'Quinn would likely benefit the most if Sabonis is unable to play on Friday.

Jeff Green is Listed as Probable for Saturday

Washington Wizards forward Jeff Green (back) has been listed as probable for Saturday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Green has missed the last two games due to back issues, but appears on track to return on Saturday. He's been decent this season, but probably not strong enough worth rostering in most formats.

Bobby Portis Ruled Out on Friday

Chicago Bulls forward Bobby Portis (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Portis was making steady progress and there was some hope that he'd be able to suit up for this contest. However, it appears he's not ready yet, but Portis hasn't been ruled out for Saturday yet. Regardless, […]
