Nicolas Batum Doubtful on Wednesday

Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Nicolas Batum (Achilles) is doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. An MRI revealed Batum is dealing with chronic tendinitis in his left Achilles. Jeremy Lamb started for Batum on Monday and finished with 14 points, eight rebounds and three assists in 30 minutes. Owners will need to check back pregame […]

Lauri Markkanen Will Likely Miss Next Three Games

Chicago Bulls power forward Lauri Markkanen (back) has been ruled out of Wednesday's contest against the Denver Nuggets. He's missed four straight games and head coach Fred Hoiberg hinted Markkanen could miss three more games. The Bulls expect Markkanen to miss the back-to-back set coming up this weekend. He has been unable to practice fully […]

Zach LaVine Won't Play on Wednesday

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (knee) has been ruled out of Wednesday's game against the Denver Nuggets. This will mark LaVine's third straight game on the sidelines. He was struggling before the injury and is someone worth dropping in most leagues right now. The Bulls are tanking, so they can afford to wait until LaVine […]

Fred VanVleet is Questionable on Wednesday

Toronto Raptors point guard Fred VanVleet (hand) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He's missed two straight games and is in danger of missing his third straight contest. Delon Wright and C.J. Miles will continue to fill in for VanVleet if he's unable to suit up on Wednesday. He's being […]

Jrue Holiday is Questionable on Wednesday

New Orleans Pelicans guard Jrue Holiday (illness) has been listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Indiana Pacers. He missed Tuesday's game versus the Mavs due to illness, which led to DeAndre Liggins and Ian Clark seeing more playing time. Anthony Davis' usage rate spikes when Holiday is not on the court. He'll be […]

Larry Nance Jr. Ruled Out on Wednesday

Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Larry Nance Jr. (hamstring) has been ruled out of Wednesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. The Cavs have downplayed the severity of the injury that happened a week ago. Nance has been sidelined three straight contests and is heading towards a fourth. However, Kevin Love (hand) has returned to the rotation, so […]

Kyle Korver Ruled Out Wednesday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Kyle Korver (personal) has been ruled out of Wednesday's contest versus the Toronto Raptors. He is currently away from the team following the death of his brother. Rodney Hood (back) has been upgraded to questionable for Wednesday's contest. Jordan Clarkson, J.R. Smith and George Hill are expected to see an increased workload […]

Rodney Hood is Questionable on Wednesday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Rodney Hood (back) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He's missed four of the last five contests due to a back issue, but has been upgraded to questionable. Owners will likely need to check back closer to game time for more information. However, Hood is expected to […]

Dwyane Wade Ruled Out Wednesday

Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade (hamstring) has been ruled out of Wednesday's game against the New York Knicks. This marks Wade's fifth straight game sidelined. It does not appear that Wade is even close to returning. Fantasy owners should drop Wade for a hot pickup right now. Wayne Ellington and Justise Winslow will continue to […]

Hassan Whiteside Ruled Out Against Knicks

Miami Heat center Hassan Whiteside (hip) has been ruled out of Wednesday's contest versus the New York Knicks. This will be Whiteside's sixth straight game on the sidelines. There are zero reports that Whiteside is even close to returning to the court. Fantasy owners need to seriously consider moving on from Whiteside at this point […]

Tyreke Evans Won't Play Wednesday

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Tyreke Evans (rest) has been ruled out of Wednesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. It's unclear why Evans is resting, but he'll miss his second straight game on Wednesday. It's likely due to the fact Memphis plays a back-to-back set on Wednesday and Thursday. However, that does not mean Evans will play […]

Kyrie Irving Remains Sidelined on Tuesday

Boston Celtics guard Kyrie Irving (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Head coach Brad Stevens made it clear on Sunday that they won't bring Irving back until he's 100 percent. Irving will be sidelined for his fourth straight contest and it's unclear how much longer he'll be out. […]

Derrick Favors Ruled Out on Tuesday

Utah Jazz forward/center Derrick Favors (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. The knee issue is always a concern, but the Jazz want to give Favors a chance to rest against the rebuilding Hawks. Jonas Jerebko will draw the start and see more minutes than usual. Royce O'Neale and Jae […]

Reggie Jackson Could Play on Tuesday

Detroit Pistons guard Reggie Jackson (ankle) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's contest versus the Phoenix Suns. Head coach Stan Van Gundy said Jackson could be making his return sometime his week. It's unclear what kind of minutes limit Jackson will be dealing with upon his return. Ish Smith is going to lose playing time […]

T.J. Warren Ruled Out on Tuesday

Phoenix Suns small forward T.J. Warren (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. The MRI taken on Warren's knee came back clean, but he did not practice on Monday. The Suns are tanking for draft positioning, so they will be in no rush to bring Warren back. Fantasy owners may […]

Devin Booker is Questionable on Tuesday

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (hand) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. He missed Saturday's contest versus the Warriors and was limited in practice on Monday. Troy Daniels performed well in his spot start for Booker on Saturday. Josh Jackson scored a career-high 36 points off the bench in that contest. Owners […]

Tobias Harris is Questionable on Tuesday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Tobias Harris (illness) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Harris stayed at the team hotel and missed shootaround due to flu-like symptoms. He has been better than expected since joining the Clippers via trade. Owners should not be worried, but check back closer to game time […]

John Collins Ruled Out on Tuesday

Atlanta Hawks forward/center John Collins (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's contest versus the Utah Jazz. Collins suffered the injury during Saturday's loss to Milwaukee. It's not an encouraging sign that Collins was ruled out on Monday, which is a full 24 hours before game time. The Hawks have four games this week and […]

Aaron Gordon Will Start on Tuesday

Orlando Magic forward Aaron Gordon (concussion) will start against the Toronto Raptors on Tuesday. He has passed the NBA's concussion protocol after missing five games. Gordon is ready to return after being stuck on the final test of the protocol for quite some time. It's unclear whether or not Gordon will have a minutes limit […]

Jonathon Simmons is Questionable Against Toronto

Orlando Magic guard/forward Jonathon Simmons (wrist) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. Simmons has been a key piece on offense, so his absence would be hurtful. Mario Hezonja and Nikola Vucevic would see a significant boost in usage if Simmons is out. Jonathan Isaac would likely see an increase in playing time. […]

Fred VanVleet is Questionable on Tuesday

Toronto Raptors point guard Fred VanVleet (hand) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Orlando Magic. The team is listing him as day-to-day, so hopefully it's just a minor issue. The Raptors will be cautious with him since they have plenty of depth at the guard position. Toronto has a back-to-back set starting Tuesday, so […]

Bogdan Bogdanovic Ruled Out on Monday

Sacramento Kings guard/forward Bogdan Bogdanovic (hamstring) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Detroit Pistons. This is the first time we're hearing of this injury, but hamstring issues have a tendency to linger. Bogdanovic could be sidelined for multiple games, so fantasy owners chasing a playoff spot may want to consider a different […]

Myles Turner is Questionable on Monday

Indiana Pacers forward/center Myles Turner (ankle) has been listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. He was spotted doing some extra work after practice, which is a good sign. Owners will need to check back closer to game time since he's likely going to be a game-time decision. Al Jefferson would […]

Andrew Harrison is Questionable on Monday

Memphis Grizzlies guard Andrew Harrison (wrist) is questionable for Monday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He was expected to miss one to two weeks roughly two weeks ago. There is a chance that Harrison rejoins the rotation on Monday, but he'll likely be eased back into things. Harrison spent a few weeks on the sidelines, so owners […]

Marc Gasol is Questionable on Monday

Memphis Grizzlies center Marc Gasol (illness) is questionable for Monday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He did not participate in shootaround and is being listed as questionable versus the Nets. The Grizzlies are tanking for draft positioning, so it would not be surprising to see Gasol sitting this one out. Memphis will likely go with […]

Cody Zeller Ruled Out on Monday

Charlotte Hornets forward/center Cody Zeller (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. This will be his fifth straight game sidelined. Zeller was only worth a look in the deepest of leagues when healthy. Frank Kaminsky will absorb more playing time without Zeller in the rotation. Zeller belongs on the waiver […]

Hassan Whiteside Ruled Out Against Denver

Miami Heat center Hassan Whiteside (hip) has been ruled out of Monday's game versus the Denver Nuggets. This will be Whiteside's fifth straight game sidelined. Fantasy owners without an Injured Reserve spot may want to consider dropping Whiteside at this point. It's unclear when he's going to return, and fantasy owners battling for a playoff […]

Dwyane Wade Out on Monday

Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade (hamstring) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Denver Nuggets. This will be Wade's fourth game sidelined and he could be looking at a few more since hamstring issues often linger. Fantasy owners may want to drop Wade at this point because he'll likely be out a couple […]

Nicolas Batum Ruled Out Monday

Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Nicolas Batum (Achilles) has been ruled out of Monday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. An MRI revealed chronic tendinitis in his left Achilles and Batum could be sidelined for multiple games. The Hornets are basically eliminated from the playoff race, so rushing Batum back is unnecessary. Jeremy Lamb is expected to draw […]

Kyle Korver is Questionable on Monday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Kyle Korver (foot) is questionable for Monday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. The injuries continue to pile up for the Cavs, but hopefully Korver can return soon. Korver has been playing well lately and is certainly someone worth adding in most fantasy leagues. It looks like the Cavs are going to be […]
