Russell Westbrook is Out on Thursday

Oklahoma City Thunder point guard Russell Westbrook (ankle) has been ruled out of Thursday's game. The Thunder have not released a timetable for Westbrook, but it's not surprising to see him sit out this back-to-back set. Dennis Schroder will draw the start at point guard while Paul George should see an increase in usage again. […]

Tobias Harris is Questionable on Thursday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Tobias Harris (illness) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He didn't go through shootaround, but there is still plenty of time before tip-off. Danilo Gallinari would see an increase in usage without Harris in the rotation. Montrezl Harrell and Mike Scott would likely gain significant […]

Hawks Are Reluctant to Trade Dewayne Dedmon

Atlanta Hawks center Dewayne Dedmon could be on the move this season with the team rebuilding and Dedmon on an expiring and affordable deal. Dedmon is only owned $6.3 million, which is going to draw plenty of interest from playoff contending teams. However, a move to another team would likely decrease Dedmon's value. He currently […]

Gordon Hayward Expected to Play in Back-to-Back Set

Boston Celtics guard/forward Gordon Hayward is expected to play in both games of the upcoming back-to-back set. Head coach Brad Stevens says he plans to have Hayward play on both Thursday and Friday. This would be his first back-to-back games of the season. He's started off the season a bit slow after a leg injury […]

Tyreek Hill Should Bounce Back Against Arizona

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill has been held to 70 receiving yards or less over the last three games. However, he always remains a dangerous threat because of the deep pass. Hill is heading into a matchup against the Cardinals who rank eighth in passing yards allowed this season, according to Yahoo. Hill […]

Sammy Watkins Shouldn't Be Trusted in Week 10

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins (foot) was sidelined during Thursday's practice. This injury is not believed to be too serious, but it could cause Watkins to miss Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals. The Cardinals defense ranks eighth in passing yards allowed, according to Yahoo. Watkins was likely going to be a WR3 […]

Travis Kelce Has Tough Challenge Against Arizona

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has one of the tougher challenges ahead of him this week against the Arizona Cardinals. The Cardinals have only given up 28 catches to tight ends this season which is the fifth lowest in the NFL. However, Kelce has caught at least five passes per game every week […]

Kareem Hunt is Excellent Option in Week 10

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt should have a productive game against the Cardinals in Week 10. Hunt has been on fire the last month and hasn't shown any signs of slowing down. He's heading into a matchup against the Cardinals that are second worst in rushing yards allowed per game and rushing touchdowns […]

Patrick Mahomes Remains A QB1 Against Cardinals

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes is obviously going to remain a QB1, but he could have some difficulty against the Arizona Cardinals. The Cardinals have allowed the fewest amount of fantasy points to quarterbacks this season, according to Yahoo. Arizona has only allowed nine passing touchdowns all season, which is tied for the lowest […]

Eric Gordon is Listed as Questionable for Thursday

Houston Rockets shooting guard Eric Gordon (groin) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Gordon was able to practice on Wednesday which is a good sign. There should be more information after shootaround on Thursday. Carmelo Anthony could lose some shots and Gerald Green would lose some minutes if Gordon […]

Avery Bradley Won't Play on Thursday

Los Angeles Clippers guard Avery Bradley (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He's been seen in a walking boot and is getting ruled out a full day in advance. Bradley could be looking at a multiple game absence here. The Clippers are hopeful that Bradley can return on […]

Luc Mbah a Moute Ruled Out for Thursday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Luc Mbah a Moute (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Head coach Doc Rivers gave encouraging words saying he expected Mbah a Moute back soon. However, it appears that he won't be back on Thursday, so maybe he can play Saturday against the Bucks. […]

Maurice Harkless Ruled Out on Thursday

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Maurice Harkless (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. This will be his seventh straight game that he's been sidelined. He continues to be ruled out a full day in advance which usually means he's not close to returning. Evan Turner should continue to benefit […]

Dirk Nowitzki Could Return in Three Weeks

Dallas Mavericks forward/center Dirk Nowitzki (ankle) is reportedly targeting a return in roughly three weeks. Nowitzki is getting closer, but this sounds like a fairly loose timetable. He'll likely be coming off the bench once he's healthy enough to return. Maxi Kleber and Dwight Powell are expected to lose some playing time once Nowitzki returns. […]

Andre Iguodala Will Play on Thursday

Golden State Warriors guard/forward Andre Iguodala (calf) will play in Thursday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. He rested on Monday and was able to practice on Wednesday. Iggy should get back in the rotation and see around 20-25 minutes against the Bucks. He doesn't have fantasy value in season long leagues, but could have DFS […]

Draymond Green Will Sit Out on Thursday

Golden State Warriors forward/center Draymond Green (foot) will be sidelined for Thursday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Green suffered an injury on Monday and was unable to return. He did not practice on Wednesday and has been ruled out a day in advance. Green could be looking at a multiple game absence. Jordan Bell and […]

Robert Covington Remains Questionable on Wednesday

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Robert Covington (back) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Indiana Pacers. Covington was not able to practice on Tuesday, so it sounds like he's doubtful to play in this one. Dario Saric would be looking at heavy minutes without Covington and Mike Muscala (nose) already ruled out. Fantasy owners should check […]

Derrick White Will Make Season Debut on Wednesday

San Antonio Spurs guard Derrick White (foot) will make his season debut against the Miami Heat on Wednesday after dealing with plantar fasciitis. White will come off the bench and play limited minutes during his first game back. There is a good chance that White will end up replacing Bryn Forbes in the starting five. […]

Hassan Whiteside is Expected to Play on Wednesday

Miami Heat center Hassan Whiteside (knee) is expected to play in Wednesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Whiteside had an MRI on his knee, but the results came back clean. It appears Whiteside is only going to miss one game due to this knee issue. Bam Adebayo should head back to the bench, assuming […]

Dwyane Wade is Sitting Out on Wednesday

Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade (personal) has been ruled out of Wednesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Goran Dragic (knee) is listed as questionable for this one, so the Heat could be short handed on Wednesday. Josh Richardson and Tyler Johnson could be forced into heavy minutes in this one. Fantasy owners should check […]

Goran Dragic is Questionable on Wednesday

Miami Heat guard Goran Dragic (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Dragic suffered a knee injury during the preseason, so hopefully this isn't connected to that. Dwyane Wade (personal) has already been ruled out for this one. Josh Richardson and Tyler Johnson would be thrown into heavy minutes if Dragic […]

Glenn Robinson III Will Start Again on Wednesday

Detroit Pistons forward Glenn Robinson III will remain in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Orlando Magic. Head coach Dwane Casey liked what he saw from Robinson last game. "I thought he brought energy, shooting, scoring and the threat of scoring," said Casey. Stanley Johnson has basically played himself out of the starting […]

Taurean Prince is Not on Injury Report

Atlanta Hawks forward Taurean Prince (ankle) is not on the injury report on Wednesday. Prince missed Tuesday's game due to a right ankle sprain. It appears Prince is fine for Wednesday's contest against the New York Knicks. Fantasy owners should check back before game time, but it looks like it's safe to plug Prince back […]

Reggie Bullock is Questionable on Wednesday

Detroit Pistons guard/forward Reggie Bullock (ankle) is considered questionable for Wednesday's game against the Orlando Magic. Bullock has missed two games in a row with a left ankle issue, but did participate in shootaround. Bruce Brown would head back to the bench if Bullock returns. Langston Galloway may lose some playing time as well, but […]

Jimmy Butler is Expected to Play Against Lakers

Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Jimmy Butler (soreness) is expected to play against the Los Angeles Lakers on Wednesday. It's highly likely that Butler plays because it's a nationality televised game. Butler did participate in shootaround, so it sounds like he'll be playing in this one. Fantasy owners should check back just in case, but it appears […]

Kawhi Leonard is Questionable Against Kings

Toronto Raptors forward Kawhi Leonard (ankle) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Head coach Nike Nurse thinks Leonard will be ready to play in this one, but no official word has been announced yet. OG Anunoby would remain in the starting five if Leonard sits out again. Fantasy owners are […]

Tyson Chandler Will Be Available on Wednesday

Los Angeles Lakers center Tyson Chandler will be available for Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. However, JaVale McGee is expected to remain the starting center. Chandler should back him up, but it's unlikely that he sees enough minutes worth adding in most fantasy leagues. Chandler is worth throwing on a watch list, but it […]

Bogdan Bogdanovic Will Make Season Debut

Sacramento Kings guard/forward Bogdan Bogdanovic (knee) has been cleared to play and will make his season debut on Wednesday against the Toronto Raptors. He had surgery in September and was expected to miss four to six weeks. Bogdanovic should be added in most leagues, assuming he goes back to his normal role from last season. […]

Norman Powell Expected to Miss Over A Month

Toronto Raptors guard/forward Norman Powell (shoulder) is expected to miss four to six weeks after suffering a shoulder subluxation. Head coach Nike Nurse said it'll be a matter of weeks before Powell is able to return. Fred Vanvleet and Delon Wright should benefit the most from this. Neither player is a great fantasy option.

Pascal Siakam is Getting A Bigger Role in Toronto

Toronto Raptors forward Pascal Siakam is expected to remain in the starting lineup, according to head coach Nick Nurse. He has started in 10 of the first 11 games of the regular season. He is averaging 15.8 points, 9.6 rebounds, and has a 64.8 shooting percentage. The Raptors like what they see from Siakam and […]
