Jerami Grant Ruled Out Against Minnesota

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (quadriceps) won't play on Monday versus Minnesota. The 29-year-old injured his quad during Saturday's meeting with the Memphis Grizzlies and exited after logging just 15 minutes. Grant has averaged 21.1 points this season, so replacing that kind of production won't be easy. With Deandre Ayton (hand) also sidelined on […]

Deandre Ayton Out Again

Portland Trail Blazers center Deandre Ayton (hand) won't play on Wednesday against the Timberwolves. The 25-year-old missed the last two games because of a sprained hand. He was listed as questionable on the injury report, so fantasy managers had hoped he'd be back on the floor. However, Ayton will miss another game. In the meantime, […]

Russell Westbrook Has Surgery On Monday

Los Angeles Clippers guard Russell Westbrook (hand) underwent surgery on Monday. The 35-year-old fractured his left hand on Friday night versus the Washington Wizards. He's expected to make a complete recovery, and there is hope he'll be back before the postseason commences. Nonetheless, Westbrook is nowhere near the player he once was. He's averaged a […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Now Out On Monday

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (Achilles) won't play on Monday against the Clippers. The multi-time MVP was listed as questionable because of Achilles soreness. He attempted to go through pregame warmups. However, he cut things short, so it's apparent things didn't go well. At any rate, fantasy managers should expect Antetokounmpo to appear on the […]

Cameron Payne Questionable For Tuesday Night

Philadelphia 76ers guard Cameron Payne (illness) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He was listed on Sunday's injury report heading into the meeting with the Dallas Mavericks. However, he was ruled out before opening tip and left the arena. The 29-year-old has averaged 9.7 points and 3.3 assists in nine games with […]

Donovan Mitchell Out At Least Three More Games

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (knee) will miss at least the next three games. The All-Star has sat out the last two contests because of a bone bruise in his left knee. While many had hoped the injury would only be a short-term issue, Chris Fedor of The Plain Dealer reported Mitchell underwent Platelet Rich […]

Jalen Brunson Has a Knee Contusion

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson (knee) was injured in Sunday night's win over the Cleveland Cavaliers. Playing less than one minute, the former Villanova Wildcat exited with what appeared to be a severe left knee injury. However, it seems the Knicks dodged a bullet, with head coach Tom Thibodeau reporting that X-rays were negative. […]

Khris Middleton Officially Out Against The Clippers

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) is officially out on Monday against the Clippers. The 32-year-old is nearing a month on the shelf, although he has practiced in a limited capacity of late. However, with Middleton still out of the equation, Jae Crowder should continue to take his place in the lineup. Crowder has averaged […]

Cam Thomas Out Again Versus Memphis

Brooklyn Nets guard Cam Thomas (ankle, foot) won't play in Monday's matchup with Memphis. The 22-year-old injured his ankle and foot late in a meeting with the Grizzlies a week ago, keeping him off the floor for Brooklyn's previous three contests. As a result, Dennis Schroder has been more involved offensively. However, with Ben Simmons […]

Jordan Clarkson Off The Injury Report

Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson (illness) isn't listed on the NBA's official injury report heading toward Monday's contest against the Washington Wizards. The veteran wasn't feeling well and didn't suit up on Saturday against the Miami Heat, allowing Talen Horton-Tucker to get more involved. Clarkson combined for just nine points in his previous two games, […]

Walker Kessler Still Out On Monday

Utah Jazz center Walker Kessler (foot) won't play in Monday's game against the visiting Wizards. The 22-year-old will now miss his third consecutive contest because of a sprained foot. As a result, Taylor Hendricks should continue to fill the hole in the lineup. The 2023 No. 9 overall pick has shown flashes of promise in […]

Jaren Jackson Jr. Likely Out Against Brooklyn

Memphis Grizzlies forward/center Jaren Jackson Jr. (quadriceps) isn't expected to play on Monday in Brooklyn. The reigning Defensive Player of the Year has missed the previous two games because of a quadriceps issue. It's unlikely the Grizzlies will rush him back, considering the team is a long shot to make the postseason. At any rate, […]

Jerami Grant Expected To Miss Monday's Game

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (quadriceps) is doubtful ahead of Monday's game in Minnesota. He logged 15 minutes on Saturday night against Memphis before exiting with quadriceps soreness, so an injury designation was expected. The Blazers are hurting on the offensive end, considering Malcolm Brogdon (elbow), Scoot Henderson (adductor), and Shaedon Sharpe (abdomen) aren't […]

Deandre Ayton Questionable Versus Minnesota

Portland Trail Blazers center Deandre Ayton (hand) is questionable for Monday's matchup with the Minnesota Timberwolves. He's missed the last two games because of a sprained hand, an injury he sustained during a recent loss to the Miami Heat. The 25-year-old hasn't been ruled out, so it seems he's improving. However, if Ayton misses another […]

Devin Booker Officially Out Against OKC

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (ankle) won't play on Sunday versus OKC. He injured his ankle and exited Saturday's loss to the Houston Rockets and didn't return, so most had already planned to be without him. Although X-rays were negative, fantasy managers should expect the 27-year-old to miss at least a few games. Luckily for […]

Jusuf Nurkic Probable On Sunday Night

Phoenix Suns center Jusuf Nurkic (neck) is listed as probable ahead of Sunday night's showdown with OKC. The Suns recently listed their official injury designations, and Nurkic is on the report because of neck spasms. Fortunately, it doesn't appear it will be enough to keep the 29-year-old off the court. However, things happen, so Bol […]

Khris Middleton Not Expected Back On Monday

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankle) is unlikely to return for Monday's matchup against the Los Angeles Clippers. He has practiced lately, albeit in a limited capacity. However, the veteran isn't ready, although there have been reports indicating things are moving in a positive direction. Middleton hasn't played in nearly a month, and it's unknown […]

Brandin Podziemski Out Again Versus Boston

Golden State Warriors guard Brandin Podziemski (knee) remains out for Sunday's game in Boston. He'll now miss a second consecutive contest. But considering he had a questionable tag, it suggests he could be back when the Warriors meet the Bucks on Wednesday night. Nonetheless, with Andrew Wiggins (personal) also out, Klay Thompson, who had 14 […]

Stephen Curry Expected To Suit Up Versus Boston

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (knee) is expected to face the Celtics on Sunday. The 35-year-old logged at least 30 minutes in each game of the Warriors' current road trip, so many had assumed he'd sit this one out. However, barring a setback during warmups, he'll be out there. While Curry's presumed availability should […]

Brandon Miller Cleared To Play Against Toronto

Charlotte Hornets forward Brandon Miller (back) will play on Sunday versus the Toronto Raptors. The rookie had a team-high 21 points in Thursday's loss to Milwaukee. However, he suffered a back injury during the contest and didn't suit up on Friday night against Philadelphia. But Miller's absence was short-lived, so he'll return to the floor […]

Bruce Brown Now Questionable For Sunday Night

Toronto Raptors forward Bruce Brown (knee) is questionable for Sunday's matchup with the Hornets. He's averaged just 8.6 points in 19 games since being traded to Toronto, down from 12.1 points while with the Pacers. However, with Scottie Barnes (hand) out indefinitely, Brown has a chance to get more involved moving ahead. While there's a […]

R.J. Hampton Signing 10-Day Deal With Washington

Guard R.J. Hampton has agreed to a 10-day contract with the Washington Wizards. The 2020 No. 24 overall pick has bounced around since entering the league, suiting up for the Nuggets, Magic, Pistons, and Heat. He appeared in eight games for Miami this season. However, Hampton averaged just 1.3 points and 1.0 assists before he […]

Kristaps Porzingis Ruled Out For Sunday Afternoon

Boston Celtics center Kristaps Porzingis (quadriceps) won't play on Sunday afternoon against the Warriors. He has missed 15 games this season already, so fantasy managers are hardly surprised by the latest update. There should be plenty of opportunities for others without the 2015 No. 4 overall pick in the lineup. Of course, Jayson Tatum, Jrue […]

LeBron James Makes History On Saturday Night

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) scored a team-high 26 points in Saturday's loss to the Denver Nuggets. He added nine assists and three steals. The 2003 No. 1 overall pick was once again on the injury report heading into this one because of his nagging ankle issue. However, it didn't matter, as James […]

Jerami Grant Injured Saturday, Doesn't Return

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (quadriceps) exited Saturday's game against Memphis. He did not return. The 29-year-old logged 15 minutes, finishing with five points. Grant will presumably undergo further testing to determine the severity of the injury. The Blazers play again on Monday in Minnesota, and it's possible Grant won't be available. If that's […]

Brandin Podziemski Questionable Against Boston

Golden State Warriors guard Brandin Podziemski (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game in Boston. The rookie is battling right knee inflammation, likely emanating from Thursday's matchup with the New York Knicks. He didn't play on Friday night against Toronto, resulting in Klay Thompson returning to the starting lineup. Thompson played well, too, ending the night […]

Cody Martin Out On Sunday

Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Cody Martin (ankle) isn't available for Sunday's matchup with the Toronto Raptors. The 28-year-old had 12 points and two blocks in 32 minutes in Friday's game against Philadelphia. But he tweaked his ankle in that one, so he's out on Sunday. Unfortunately, Martin has missed plenty of time over the years because […]

Seth Curry Won't Play Versus Toronto

Charlotte Hornets guard Seth Curry (ankle) won't play on Sunday against the Toronto Raptors. Brandon Miller (back) wasn't available for Friday's meeting with the 76ers, so Curry got the start. However, he suffered a sprained right ankle, ending his night prematurely. Nonetheless, the 33-year-old could miss more games moving ahead. But with Miller listed as […]

Brandon Miller Expected To Return On Sunday

Charlotte Hornets forward Brandon Miller (back) is expected to face the Raptors on Sunday. The rookie had a team-high 21 points in Thursday's loss to the Bucks. He also took a shot to his back, keeping him off the floor for Friday's meeting with the Philadelphia 76ers. Seth Curry (ankle) got the start for Miller […]

Kristaps Porzingis Uncertain For Sunday

Boston Celtics center Kristaps Porzingis (quadriceps) is questionable for Sunday's game against the visiting Warriors. The 2015 No. 4 overall pick has played well in his first season with the C's, averaging 20.3 points, 6.9 rebounds, and 1.8 blocks. But he's also missed 15 games. With Boston owning the best record in the National Basketball […]
