Peyton Watson Ruled Out Tuesday

Denver Nuggets forward Peyton Watson (hamstring) will not play Tuesday against Phoenix as the team manages his workload following a recent return from a lengthy absence. His absence could mean a few extra bench minutes for Tim Hardaway Jr., Spencer Jones, and Julian Strawther, though none are strong fantasy plays right now. Hardaway had six […]

Jalen Smith Back in Action Against Rockets

Chicago Bulls center Jalen Smith (calf) will play Monday against Houston after missing one game, though he is expected to see roughly 22 to 24 minutes as he works back into form.

Killian Hayes Iffy for Tuesday

Sacramento Kings guard Killian Hayes (foot) is questionable for Tuesday's game against Charlotte after exiting Sunday's win early due to soreness.

Carter put up 16 points, five rebounds, three assists, and one steal […]

Daeqwon Plowden On Track to Play Tuesday

Sacramento Kings forward Daeqwon Plowden (foot) is probable for Tuesday's game against Charlotte after missing the previous contest, putting the two-way wing on track to reclaim a rotation role. Plowden has averaged 14.4 points, 3.0 three-pointers, 3.2 rebounds, 1.2 assists, and 1.4 steals across his last five appearances, giving him deep-league appeal for threes and […]

Precious Achiuwa Could Sit Tuesday

Sacramento Kings forward/center Precious Achiuwa (back) is questionable for Tuesday's game against Charlotte after being listed with lower-back soreness following Sunday's win. He has been a steady part of the rotation lately, including a 14-point, 15-rebound effort in his most recent outing. If he sits, Dylan Cardwell could see more frontcourt minutes after posting five […]

Nique Clifford Out Tuesday Against Hornets

Sacramento Kings guard/forward Nique Clifford (foot) will miss Tuesday's game against Charlotte after exiting his previous outing early, leaving Sacramento without one of its recent high-minute starters.

Russell Westbrook to Miss Second Straight Game

Sacramento Kings guard Russell Westbrook (foot) will miss Tuesday's game against Charlotte, marking his second straight absence.

Jalen Johnson Remains Out Monday

Atlanta Hawks forward Jalen Johnson (shoulder) has been ruled out for Monday's game against Memphis due to inflammation, marking his second straight absence.

Devin Vassell Cleared to Play Monday

San Antonio Spurs guard/forward Devin Vassell (hamstring) is available for Monday's game against Miami after recently dealing with tightness. He has averaged 14.6 points, 2.6 three-pointers, 2.6 rebounds, and 2.8 assists across 33.1 minutes over his last five appearances, providing steady but capped fantasy value alongside De'Aaron Fox and Stephon Castle. Vassell remains a hold […]

Stephon Castle Iffy for Monday

San Antonio Spurs guard Stephon Castle (hip) is questionable for Monday's game against Miami after missing the last two contests due to soreness.

Harper […]

Bennedict Mathurin Remains Out Monday

Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Bennedict Mathurin (toe) will remain out for Monday's game against Milwaukee, extending his absence to four straight contests.

Isaiah Collier Still Sidelined Monday

Utah Jazz guard Isaiah Collier (hamstring) will miss another game Monday against Toronto, marking his third straight absence due to injury management.

Kyle Kuzma Iffy for Monday Vs. Clippers

Milwaukee Bucks forward Kyle Kuzma (Achilles) is questionable for Monday's game against the Clippers after exiting Saturday's win over Phoenix with soreness.

Ousmane Dieng could remain in a sizable role after posting 11 points, one three-pointer, two rebounds, two assists, and one steal in […]

Pascal Siakam May Miss Monday's Game Vs. Orlando

Indiana Pacers forward/center Pascal Siakam (knee) is questionable for Monday's game against Orlando after returning Saturday from a six-game absence and logging 14 points, five assists, two rebounds, and one steal in 29 minutes.

John Collins Expected to be Available Monday Vs. Bucks

Los Angeles Clippers forward/center John Collins (ankle) is listed as probable for Monday's game against Milwaukee and is expected to play through a minor sprain. Collins logged eight points, one three-pointer, three rebounds, one steal, and two blocks in 29 minutes during his last start against Dallas, showing modest production despite a steady run. His […]

Tristan Vukcevic Exits Early With Back Tightness

Washington Wizards forward/center Tristan Vukcevic (back) did not return to Sunday's game against the New York Knicks after experiencing lower-back tightness.

His status for Wednesday in Utah is uncertain. If […]

Kevin Porter Jr. to Miss Third Straight Game

Milwaukee Bucks guard Kevin Porter Jr. (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers, marking his third straight absence because of right knee inflammation.

Collin Murray-Boyles Remains Out Sunday

Toronto Raptors forward/center Collin Murray-Boyles (thumb) will miss Sunday's game against the Phoenix Suns, extending his absence to 11 straight contests because of a lingering thumb injury.

Jalen Johnson Could Miss Second Straight Game

Atlanta Hawks forward Jalen Johnson (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies because of left shoulder inflammation after missing the previous contest.

Joel Embiid Remains Sidelined Monday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (oblique) will not play Monday against the Oklahoma City Thunder as he continues to recover from a right oblique strain.

Grayson Allen to Miss Fourth Straight Game

Phoenix Suns guard Grayson Allen (knee) will remain out for Sunday's game against the Toronto Raptors as he continues to manage a left knee issue, marking his fourth straight absence.

Naz Reid Back in Action Sunday

Minnesota Timberwolves forward/center Naz Reid (ankle) is available for Sunday's game against the Boston Celtics after missing two games with a right ankle sprain.

His ability to contribute […]

Jaylen Brown Available Sunday Against Timberwolves

Boston Celtics guard/forward Jaylen Brown (quadriceps) will play Sunday against the Minnesota Timberwolves after being listed as probable because of a left quad contusion.

Jalen Williams Cleared for Monday Return

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Jalen Williams (hamstring) is expected to play Monday against the Philadelphia 76ers after missing time with a right hamstring strain.

Williams is averaging 17.5 points, 4.7 rebounds, 5.4 assists, and 1.3 […]

Luka Doncic Set to Play Monday Against Pistons

Los Angeles Lakers guard Luka Doncic will be available for Monday's game against Detroit after the league rescinded his 16th technical foul, removing the automatic one-game suspension.

Stephen Curry to Miss Next Two Games

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (knee) will miss the team's next two games as he continues recovering from right knee soreness, with another evaluation scheduled when the team returns home Tuesday.

Noah Clowney to Miss Second Straight Game

Brooklyn Nets forward/center Noah Clowney (wrist) will miss Sunday's game in Sacramento after suffering a right wrist sprain earlier in the week.

Ziaire Williams is expected to continue starting after posting 17 points, two three-pointers, four rebounds, one assist, and one steal […]

Nicolas Claxton Won't Play Sunday

Brooklyn Nets center Nicolas Claxton (rest) will not play Sunday against Sacramento as the team manages his workload on the first night of a back-to-back.

Danny Wolf recently posted eight points, two three-pointers, […]
