Dion Waiters Won't Play on Sunday

Miami Heat guard/forward Dion Waiters (ankle) won't play against the Utah Jazz on Sunday. Waiters doesn't have a timetable for his return and is seeking a second opinion on his ankle. He hasn't played since Dec. 22 and might not anytime soon. Josh Richardson, Tyler Johnson and Wayne Ellington will continue to see extra minutes […]

Justise Winslow Ruled Out Sunday

Miami Heat forward Justise Winslow (knee) will not play against the Utah Jazz on Sunday. He was able to do some non-contact drills this week, so that's a good sign. Winslow is still considered week-to-week and there is no timetable for his return. James Johnson and Kelly Olynyk continue to see extended minutes and have […]

David Nwaba Gets Guaranteed Deal Through Season

Chicago Bulls guard/forward David Nwaba has been given a guaranteed contract through the remainder of the season. He has quickly become one of head coach Fred Hoiberg's favorite players on defense. Sadly, a lot of what he brings to the table doesn't have much impact in fantasy hoops. He's averaging 7.6 points, 4.7 rebounds, 1.3 […]

Tyson Chandler Will Start Against Spurs

Phoenix Suns center Tyson Chandler (rest) will start at center against the San Antonio Spurs on Friday. Chandler was rested in Wednesday's loss to the Denver Nuggets. He's back in the starting lineup, and is averaging 6.0 points, 10.6 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 26.9 minutes in his last five starts. Chandler back in the […]

T.J. Warren is Questionable Friday

Phoenix Suns small forward T.J. Warren (illness) is questionable to play against the San Antonio Spurs on Friday. Warren has started in each of the Suns first 40 games this season, but looks like a game-time decision Friday. If Warren is unable to play, Josh Jackson and Troy Daniels would see increased minutes on the […]

Andre Drummond is Questionable on Friday

Detroit Pistons center Andre Drummond (ribs) is questionable to play against the Philadelphia 76ers on Friday. He was forced to miss Wednesday's contest, and Drummond is likely looking at a game-time decision for Friday's matchup. Owners will likely need to wait until head coach Stan Van Gundy addresses the media prior to tip-off for an […]

Dion Waiters Seeking Second Opinion on Ankle

Miami Heat guard/forward Dion Waiters (ankle) has already been ruled out for Friday's game against the New York Knicks. Waiters hasn't played since Dec. 22 and isn't practicing with the team. He's reportedly seeking a second opinion on his ankle, and that could be worrisome to fantasy owners. Waiters' ankle has been giving him problems […]

Marcus Morris Ruled Out Friday

Boston Celtics forward Marcus Morris (knee) is listed as out against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday. He's working his way back from a lingering knee issue, so the team continues to limit his workload. Friday is the front end of a back-to-back set, so Morris should return against the Nets on Saturday. On Wednesday, Morris […]

Sammy Watkins is Risky Against Falcons

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Sammy Watkins likely won't see much success against the Atlanta Falcons on Saturday. He's the fourth best option behind running back Todd Gurley and receivers Robert Woods and Cooper Kupp. He'll likely see four or fewer targets and is a touchdown-dependent WR. He's able to make big plays when given the chance, but there […]

Cooper Kupp Is Boom Or Bust

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp finished with his rookie campaign with 869 yards and five touchdowns. It was a solid year for the rookie, but he might not see much work against the Atlanta Falcons on Saturday. Kupp is the third option behind running back Todd Gurley and receiver Robert Woods. He will see some […]

Robert Woods is Rams Best Receiving Option

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Robert Woods has become the No.1 WR on the Rams roster. He didn't score a touchdown until Week 9 but finished the season with 781 yards and five touchdowns. He was nearly unstoppable until a shoulder injury cost him three weeks of action. He's been given plenty of rest and […]

Todd Gurley Should Destroy Falcons

Los Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley should be in for a solid performance against the Atlanta Falcons on Saturday. Gurley was able to win some fantasy owners championships and might even be able to win himself an MVP award. He finished the season with 1,305 rushing yards and 13 rushing touchdowns. He scored 19 […]

Jared Goff is Reliable Option Against Falcons

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff has put together an absolutely incredible campaign. He finished with 3,804 passing yards and 28 passing touchdowns with just seven interceptions. He sat out in Week 17 but dropped 301 yards and four touchdowns on the Titans in Week 16. He's still learning and is going to make mistakes, […]

Travis Kelce is Trustworthy TE Option

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce is most notably one of the best TEs in all of football. Kelce finished the season with 83 receptions, 1,038 yards and eight touchdowns. He's caught four or more passes in every game he's played in besides two this season. Kelce has become the go-to guy for quarterback […]

Tyreek Hill Should Be Reliable

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill went from boom or bust to one of the most trustworthy WRs in fantasy. In his last six contests, Hill caught at least four receptions for 40 yards or more. He caught three touchdowns during that span and had two games with 100 yards or more. Hill will […]

Kareem Hunt is RB1 Against Titans

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt capped off his rookie campaign with the NFL rushing title. He rushed for 35 yards in Week 17 and finished with 1,327 yards and eight rushing touchdowns on the season. He heads into Saturday with five touchdowns in his last four games. The Chiefs will likely lean on […]

Alex Smith is A Safe Option

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Alex Smith heads into a playoff game against the Tennessee Titans on Saturday. Smith finished the season with an impressive 26:5 touchdown-to-interception ratio on the season. He didn't throw an interception until Week 9 and is one of the main reasons the Chiefs are in the playoffs. He's a safe option […]

Omri Casspi is Questionable Thursday

Golden State Warriors forward Omri Casspi (back) is considered questionable to play against the Houston Rockets on Thursday. He was held out on Wednesday, but the Warriors will need him with Kevin Durant (calf) sidelined Thursday. Casspi has started for Durant in the past, so there is a good chance he does again if he's […]

Kevin Durant Ruled Out Thursday

Golden State Warriors forward Kevin Durant (calf) will not play against the Houston Rockets on Thursday. He's dealing with a right calf strain that he suffered during the first quarter of Wednesday's game. Durant still played 38 minutes, recording 25 points, 12 rebounds, six assists and four blocks. The Warriors are likely just being cautious since it's […]

Justise Winslow Ruled Out Friday

Miami Heat forward Justise Winslow (knee) has been ruled out of Friday's game against the New York Knicks. The good news is Winslow did return to practice on Thursday. It was non-contact work but a good sign moving forward. Winslow hasn't played since Dec. 13, but there is a chance he returns next week. There […]

Stanley Johnson is Doubtful for Friday

Detroit Pistons guard/forward Stanley Johnson (hip) is considered doubtful to play against the Philadelphia 76ers on Friday. He's still not practicing and is on the verge of missing his third straight game. He's averaging 7.5 points, 3.7 boards and 1.2 steals per game on 35.3 percent shooting, so he wasn't a good fantasy option even […]

Andre Drummond Misses Practice Thursday

Detroit Pistons center Andre Drummond (ribs) missed practice on Thursday and is a game-time decision for Friday's contest against the Philadelphia 76ers. Head coach Stan Van Gundy said the injury was about pain tolerance, so it's likely just a day-to-day issue. Boban Marjanovic dropped 15 points, nine rebounds, three assists and one block in 22 […]

Austin Rivers is Questionable on Thursday

Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Austin Rivers (Achilles) is questionable to play against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Thursday. Rivers has been working out the past couple of days and dealt with discomfort in his foot. Head coach Doc Rivers is considering sending him to another physician to get Rivers re-evaluated. The Clippers listed Rivers as questionable […]

Caris LeVert is Out on Wednesday

Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Caris LeVert (groin) will not play against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Wednesday. This will mark the first game of the season that LeVert has been inactive. Sadly, it's coming when he's the hottest, averaging 16.3 points, 5.5 rebounds and 8.3 assists over his last four contests. Allen Crabbe, Joe Harris, and Nik […]

Will Barton Questionable Against Suns

Denver Nuggets guard/forward Will Barton (illness) is considered questionable to play versus the Phoenix Suns on Wednesday. Lately, Barton has been dealing with a back issue, but he popped up on the injury report Wednesday due to illness. Gary Harris and Jamal Murray have seen their production and usage rates increase in games without Barton. […]

Draymond Green Questionable Versus Mavs

Golden State Warriors forward/center Draymond Green (ankle) is considered questionable to play against the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday. He tweaked his ankle during Tuesday's practice, but is likely headed towards a game-time decision. It's the front end of a back-to-back set, but against the 13-win Mavs, the Warriors may elect to rest Green and let […]

Kyle Kuzma is Available Wednesday

Los Angeles Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma (quadriceps) is available to play against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday. He's been dealing with a lingering quad issue since last week but has yet to miss any time on the court. After an incredible start to the season, Kuzma has come back down to earth. Over the […]

Brook Lopez Will Return Wednesday

Los Angeles Lakers center Brook Lopez (ankle) will be available to play against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday. This will be the first time Lopez has played since he sprained his ankle on Dec. 18. Lopez will have a minutes limit and hasn't lived up to the expectations in LA. Both Julius Randle and […]

Andre Iguodala Out On Wednesday

Golden State Warriors guard/forward Andre Iguodala (back) will not play against the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday. It's the front end of a back-to-back set, so it's not surprising to see Iggy on the sidelines against the 13-win Mavericks. Omri Casspi (back) will get the night off as well, but both are expected to be able […]

Danny Green Ruled Out Wednesday

San Antonio Spurs guard/forward Danny Green (groin) will not play against the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday. Kawhi Leonard (rest) and Tony Parker (rest) will also be on the sidelines, but Green is dealing with an actual injury. Head coach Gregg Popovich hinted after Tuesday's victory that Green could be "shut down for a while." With […]
