Joe Johnson Ruled Out Saturday

Utah Jazz guard/forward Joe Johnson (rest) has been ruled out of Saturday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. It is a back-to-back set, so it is not surprising the Jazz decide to rest their veteran. Johnson reportedly wanted out of Utah, but maybe that changed after a four game winning streak. Royce O'Neale should see […]

Mike Scott is Questionable Saturday

Washington Wizards power forward Mike Scott (illness) is questionable to play against the Orlando Magic on Saturday. Head coach Scott Brooks said Scott did not participate in shootaround will be a game-time decision. Scott is averaging 17.2 minutes per contest over his last 15 games. Markieff Morris, Kelly Oubre and Ian Mahinmi would see increased […]

Eric Gordon Won't Play on Saturday

Houston Rockets shooting guard Eric Gordon (back) will not play against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Saturday. The Rockets are reportedly confident that Gordon will be able to return versus the Nets on Tuesday. Gordon left Tuesday's game after playing just 10 minutes and did not return. He did not play on Thursday, but it is […]

Aaron Gordon Ruled Out Against Wizards

Orlando Magic forward Aaron Gordon (hip) has been ruled out of Saturday's game against the Washington Wizards. This will be Gordon's third straight contest on the sidelines. On Wednesday, Marreese Speights started and scored 21 points, four rebounds, and three triples in 23 minutes. Mario Hezonja had 14 points and four boards in 25 minutes […]

J.J. Barea is Questionable on Saturday

Dallas Mavericks guard J.J. Barea (oblique) is questionable to play against the Sacramento Kings on Saturday. He's missed each of the Mavs last three games. However, Barea did do some individual workouts on Wednesday and practiced on Friday. There should be an update on his status closer to tip-off on Saturday. Yogi Ferrell and Devin […]

Dwyane Wade Expected to Play Saturday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Dwyane Wade (personal) is expected to be available to play against the Houston Rockets on Saturday. Wade was absent from practice on Friday, but is back with the Cavs. Wade was attending a funeral in Chicago for his former agent Henry Thomas. Wade should move back into his normal role off the […]

Emeka Okafor Hopeful to Play Saturday

New Orleans Pelicans center Emeka Okafor is hopeful to play against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Saturday. It was reported Saturday morning that the Pelicans were finalizing a 10-day contract with Okafor. The Pelicans are in desperate need of depth up front with DeMarcus Cousins (Achilles) out for the reminder of the season. Okafor has not […]

Andre Iguodala Is Available on Saturday

Golden State Warriors guard/forward Andre Iguodala (rest) is available to play against the Denver Nuggets on Saturday. Iggy received Friday night off, but will play in the back end of the back-to-back set. Nick Young and Patrick McCaw will see reduced minutes with Iggy back in the rotation. Iggy does not have much fantasy impact […]

Hassan Whiteside Ruled Out Against Pistons

Miami Heat center Hassan Whiteside (illness) has been ruled out of Saturday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Whiteside left Friday's game versus the Sixers in the fourth quarter. Bam Adebayo and Kelly Olynyk will see an increase in playing time and usage with Whiteside inactive. Adebayo will likely draw the start, but that does not […]

Caris LeVert is Probable on Friday

Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Caris LeVert (groin) is probable for Friday's contest against the Los Angeles Lakers. It sounds like he is on track to return after missing three games. Head coach Kenny Atkinson unleashed the combo of D'Angelo Russell and Spencer Dinwiddie on Wednesday. It would not be surprising to see LeVert drift into a […]

Jusuf Nurkic is Probable on Friday

Portland Trail Blazers center Jusuf Nurkic (quadriceps) is probable for Friday's contest against the Toronto Raptors. He suffered a leg injury in the fourth quarter of Wednesday's game, but it sounds like he will be fine. He is playing great basketball right now, but the same cannot be said about Ed Davis. It has been […]

Skal Labissiere Will Miss 2-3 Weeks

Sacramento Kings forward/center Skal Labissiere (shoulder) is expected to miss roughly two to three weeks. He has been playing through the injury for quite some time. The Kings finally decided to shut him down and let him rest up. Once healthy, Labissiere is expected to see heavy run with the Kings current youth movement. He […]

Willie Cauley-Stein is Probable Against Warriors

Sacramento Kings forward/center Willie Cauley-Stein (knee) is probable to play against the Golden State Warriors on Friday. He's missed two straight games but did go through shootaround and practiced fully on Thursday. WCS needs to be owned in all leagues, and he is expected to see heavy run. Kosta Koufos and Zach Randolph will take […]

Tyler Ulis Questionable on Friday

Phoenix Suns point guard Tyler Ulis (back) is questionable to play against the Utah Jazz on Friday. Head coach Jay Triano said Ulis "will warm up pregame to see about his availability" for Friday's contest. Ulis logged just 11 minutes on Wednesday and was held scoreless. Isaiah Canaan (ankle) is ruled out, so Devin Booker […]

Alex Len Ruled Out Against Jazz

Phoenix Suns forward/center Alex Len (ankle) has been ruled out against the Utah Jazz on Friday. Len has been forced to miss four of the last five games due to an ankle issue. Tyson Chandler will draw the start at center with Dragan Bender backing him up. Greg Monroe was waived and joined the Boston Celtics. […]

C.J. Miles is Questionable on Friday

Toronto Raptors guard/forward C.J. Miles (knee) is questionable for Friday's contest against the Portland Trail Blazers. Miles has missed each of the last two Raptors games. Norman Powell has seen increased playing time in the absence of Miles. Powell will likely play 20-plus minutes against the Blazers if Miles is unable to suit up for […]

Rodney Hood Won't Play Against Suns

Utah Jazz guard/forward Rodney Hood (leg) will not play against the Phoenix Suns on Friday. This marks his sixth straight game on the sidelines, but he has been working out. He is not likely going to return before the trade deadline. There have been multiple reports of Hood being on the trade block lately. Alec […]

Shane Larkin Ruled Out Friday

Boston Celtics point guard Shane Larkin (knee) has been ruled out of Friday's contest against the Atlanta Hawks. This will be the third straight game that Larkin has been forced to miss. Kyrie Irving (quadriceps) has also been ruled out for this contest. Terry Rozier is expected to start and play all the minutes he […]

Marcus Morris Won't Play on Friday

Boston Celtics forward Marcus Morris (hip) will not play against the Atlanta Hawks on Friday. He crashed down on his hip during Wednesday's victory and was helped off the floor. He did not return to the game, so it is not surprising to see him ruled out for this contest. Jayson Tatum and Semi Ojeleye […]

Kyrie Irving Ruled Out Against Hawks

Boston Celtics guard Kyrie Irving (quadriceps) has been ruled out against the Atlanta Hawks on Friday. It was predictable after Irving was forced to miss Wednesday's contest. The Celtics are hosting the worst team in the NBA in the Hawks, so there's no need to rush Irving back to the court. Shane Larkin (knee) has […]

Cody Zeller is Probable Against Pacers

Charlotte Hornets forward/center Cody Zeller (knee) is probable for Friday's contest against the Indiana Pacers. He's been out for almost two months, so expect some heavy minutes limits going forward. Zeller was averaging 7.2 points, 5.5 rebounds and 1.1 blocks in 19.9 minutes before the injury. He was the backup to Dwight Howard prior to […]

Dennis Schroder is Questionable on Friday

Atlanta Hawks point guard Dennis Schroder (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Friday's contest against the Boston Celtics. He will likely be a game-time decision but is on track to play. He injured his shoulder in the first half of Wednesday's game but was able to play through it. Malcolm Delaney and Isaiah Taylor would […]

Nikola Mirotic Won't Be Available on Friday

New Orleans Pelicans forward Nikola Mirotic will not be available for Friday's contest against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He is expected to make his Pelicans debut on Saturday versus the Minnesota Timberwolves. Mirotic was posting career highs before he was traded from Chicago. He's averaging 16.8 points, 6.4 rebounds and 2.8 triples in 24.9 minutes. […]

Jabari Parker Expected to Play on Friday

Milwaukee Bucks forward Jabari Parker (knee) is expected to make his season debut against the New York Knicks on Friday. Parker said he expects to play 15 minutes, but there is no official word on his minutes restrictions yet. He is going to be on minutes limits for at least the next couple of weeks. […]

Malcolm Brogdon is Doubtful on Friday

Milwaukee Bucks guard Malcolm Brogdon (quadriceps) is doubtful to play against the New York Knicks on Friday. He played in just 10 minutes of Thursday's contest and left the locker room on crutches. He is almost certainly going to miss time, but the Bucks still have seven games before the All-Star break. There is no […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Questionable on Friday

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (ankle) is questionable to play against the New York Knicks on Friday. He twisted his ankle pretty badly in Thursday's contest and was unable to put any weight on it after the game. Jabari Parker (knee) is expected to play, but it won't make up for the loss of Giannis. […]

C.J. Miles is Questionable on Thursday

Toronto Raptors guard/forward C.J. Miles (knee) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Washington Wizards. He did not go through shootaround and has been experiencing some knee soreness. Norman Powell filled in nicely for Miles on Tuesday. He's expected to do the same if Miles is forced to the sidelines again. Powell is not worth […]

Marvin Williams Ruled Out Friday

Charlotte Hornets forward Marvin Williams (ankle) will not play against the Indiana Pacers on Friday. The Hornets have ruled him out early for the second game in a row. He could be out for additional time and is reportedly on the trade block. Frank Kaminsky started on Wednesday, but Treveon Graham saw the increase in […]

Eric Bledsoe Ruled Out Thursday

Milwaukee Bucks guard Eric Bledsoe (ankle) has been ruled out of Thursday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He was listed as doubtful but never really had much of a chance to play in this contest. Owners should prepare to be without Bledsoe for Friday's game against the Knicks as well. Malcolm Brogdon, Matthew Dellavedova and […]

Mario Chalmers Ruled Out Thursday

Memphis Grizzlies guard Mario Chalmers (hamstring) will not play against the Detroit Pistons on Thursday. Deyonta Davis (knee), James Ennis (illness) and JaMychal Green (ankle) are all questionable for this contest. Andrew Harrison logged heavy minutes as the starting point guard on Wednesday. Wayne Selden scored 24 points with six triples in the loss on Wednesday. […]
