Sean Payton To Interview With Carolina

The Panthers have received permission to interview former Saints head coach Sean Payton. The list continues to grow, with Denver, Houston, and Arizona already inquiring about Payton's services. Of course, New Orleans will look for compensation from any club that eventually lands the Super Bowl-winning coach, with the price tag rumored to be at least […]

Aaron Donald Considering Retirement?

Los Angeles Rams defensive lineman Aaron Donald has reportedly considered retiring from the National Football League this offseason. While there hasn't been an official update on Donald's plans, many began to speculate after the veteran changed his Twitter bio to "former NFL D Linemen for the Rams #99." However, he has since removed the update […]

Zach LaVine Probable Against Golden State

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (hand) is expected to play against the Warriors. The 27-year-old carried the same designation heading into Friday's meeting with OKC, so barring a setback, he should be out there on Sunday. LaVine has been on a roll, scoring 36 or more points in three of his last five games. He […]

DeMar DeRozan Questionable On Sunday

Chicago Bulls forward DeMar DeRozan (quadriceps) is questionable for Sunday's meeting with Golden State. The 33-year-old has missed his last two games with a right quad strain. However, he appears to be moving in the right direction. If DeRozan can't suit up, Patrick Williams, who had 19 points, five rebounds, one steal, and one block […]

Marcus Morris Sr. Doubtful On Sunday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Marcus Morris Sr. (knee) isn't expected to play against the Rockets. The 33-year-old is dealing with a left knee contusion, so he'll likely join Paul George (hamstring) and Luke Kennard (calf) on the sidelines. John Wall (abdomen) isn't anticipated to play either, meaning Terance Mann, Norman Powell, Nicolas Batum, and Robert […]

John Wall Not Expected To Suit Up On Sunday

Los Angeles Clippers guard John Wall (abdomen) is not expected to play against the Houston Rockets. The veteran logged 29 minutes on Friday versus the Denver Nuggets, finishing with 16 points and seven rebounds. However, he's now dealing with abdominal soreness, so he's on track to join Luke Kennard (calf) and Paul George (hamstring) on […]

Luke Kennard Out Again Versus Houston

Los Angeles Clippers guard Luke Kennard (calf) won't play against the Rockets, marking his fourth straight absence. Paul George (hamstring) will also miss this one, so Kennard won't be available on Sunday for a potential spot start. Instead, Terance Mann, who's averaged 11.6 points, 4.7 boards, and 2.4 assists while shooting 39.6% from deep in […]

Paul George Sitting Again On Sunday

Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Paul George (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Rockets. The veteran is battling hamstring soreness, so he'll miss his fifth consecutive game. Luke Kennard (calf) also won't suit up, meaning Terance Mann would remain with the first five. The 26-year-old has averaged 11.6 points and 4.7 rebounds […]

Kevin Porter Jr. Unlikely To Play Against The Clippers

Houston Rockets guard Kevin Porter Jr. (foot) is doubtful ahead of the meeting with the Los Angeles Clippers. The 22-year-old is on track to miss his second consecutive game because of a foot contusion, which should keep Kenyon Martin Jr. in the starting lineup. Martin has averaged 12.6 points and 5.8 boards in nine starts […]

Isaiah Stewart Expected To Return Against New York

Detroit Pistons forward/center Isaiah Stewart (shoulder) is probable ahead of Sunday's meeting with the Knicks. Detroit has been shorthanded underneath the rim, with Stewart missing the previous three games while Jalen Duren (ankle) has sat out the last four. However, with Duren out again on Sunday, Stewart will likely slide over to the five spot. […]

Jalen Duren Remains Out On Sunday

Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (ankle) won't play against the Knicks. The rookie is currently nursing right ankle soreness, so he'll miss his fifth consecutive outing on Sunday. Fortunately, Isaiah Stewart (shoulder) is probable and will likely take Duren's spot at the five. At the same time, Nerlens Noel, who had been starting, would presumably […]

Bojan Bogdanovic Uncertain For Sunday's Game

Detroit Pistons forward Bojan Bogdanovic (non-COVID-illness) is questionable for Sunday's meeting with the visiting Knicks. The veteran recently scored 22 points in Friday's loss to New Orleans. However, he went 1-for-7 from deep. If Bogdanovic doesn't suit up versus New York, Saddiq Bey would be the favorite to lead the way on the scoring end. […]

Derrick White Suffers Neck Injury On Saturday

Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (neck) was injured during the win over the Charlotte Hornets. The former Spur logged only four minutes before suffering a neck strain resulting from a collision with Marcus Smart. It's certainly possible White may miss some games because of the ailment, which wouldn't be ideal considering the C's have also […]

Rudy Gobert Exits Win Over Cavs With Groin Soreness

Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (groin) didn't return to Saturday's win over Cleveland because of right groin soreness. He finished the game with only six points, four rebounds, and one steal in 13 minutes of action. It's possible Gobert could miss time, beginning with Monday's matchup against his former team, the Utah Jazz. Karl-Anthony Towns […]

Fantasy Basketball Injuries From Saturday: Derrick White, Rudy Gobert, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Kyle Lowry, Tyler Herro

It's January, and the National Basketball Association is nearing the halfway point in the 2022-23 season. Although many teams around the league have navigated their way through the year unscathed, other clubs haven't been as fortunate. Yet, when one player goes down, another is right around the corner and ready to step up. This article […]

Bam Adebayo Has Massive Game On Saturday

Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo acquired a double-double in Saturday's win over the Bucks. The big man looked fantastic, ending the day with 20 points, 13 rebounds, and two blocks. He has had the best month of the 2022-23 campaign thus far, averaging 23.2 points in January, even with the ugly 10-point showing versus Brooklyn […]

Gabe Vincent Scores Game-High 27 Points On Saturday

Miami Heat guard Gabe Vincent amassed a game-high 27 points in Saturday's win over Milwaukee. He looked good throughout the matinee, going 11-for-14 from the field and 5-for-8 from deep. The two clubs met back on Thursday, with the 26-year-old also finishing that one as the highest-scoring player. With Kyle Lowry (knee) and Tyler Herro […]

Tee Higgins Hoping To Rebound Against Baltimore

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins (illness) didn't practice on Wednesday. Fortunately, he logged full sessions since then, so he'll be good to go against the Ravens on Sunday. Entering Week 18, the former Clemson Tiger had a touchdown in each of his last four games. However, he fizzled in the season finale, catching just […]

Ja'Marr Chase Hoping For A Repeat Showing Against Baltimore

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase finished the regular season with 1,046 yards and nine touchdowns off 87 receptions. While he didn't match some of the statistical totals from his inaugural campaign, he played five games less, mostly because of a hip injury. Without question, Chase has been on a roll of late, amassing double-digit […]

Joe Mixon A Risky Fantasy Option On Sunday

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon completed the 2022-23 campaign with nine total touchdowns, seven fewer than he had last season. Even worse, he fell short of reaching the 1,000-yard rushing mark. In all fairness, the former Sooner did miss a few games. However, fantasy managers were certainly disappointed with Mixon's lack of production. With […]

Joe Burrow Looking For Another Win Over Baltimore

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow is looking to lead his club to another Super Bowl. However, he'll need to get his team past Baltimore for the second time in as many weeks on Sunday. The signal-caller hasn't been overly productive in his two meetings with the Ravens this season, totaling only two passing touchdowns while […]

Gordon Hayward Doubtful Against Boston

Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (hamstring) is doubtful for Saturday's contest versus the visiting Celtics. The veteran has missed his last five games with hamstring soreness, so it appears he won't be on the floor against his former team. Nonetheless, if Hayward is officially ruled out, Jalen McDaniels will remain in the starting lineup. However, […]

Malcolm Brogdon May Not Play Against Charlotte

Boston Celtics guard Malcolm Brogdon (personal) is questionable for Saturday's meeting with Charlotte. The 30-year-old has averaged 13.6 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 3.8 assists while shooting a career-high 44.3% from deep this season. However, with Jaylen Brown (adductor) out for this one, Brogdon could easily see an uptick in production if he plays. But if […]

Khris Middleton Still Out On Saturday

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (knee) is out again on Saturday against Miami. The 31-year-old has played only seven games this season because of various ailments, so his absence isn't a surprise by any means. Without a timetable for Middleton's return from knee soreness, Pat Connaughton, who's averaged 8.8 points and 4.9 assists in 10 […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Questionable Versus Miami

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) is questionable ahead of Saturday's meeting with Miami. The multi-time MVP didn't play on Thursday for the first of consecutive games against the Heat because of left knee soreness. However, he's no stranger to this issue, so there's a good chance he'll be out there. That said, if Antetokounmpo […]

Caleb Martin Expected To Play On Saturday

Miami Heat forward Caleb Martin (quadriceps) is listed as probable ahead of Saturday's rematch with Milwaukee. The 27-year-old has missed his previous four games with a left quad contusion, allowing Haywood Highsmith to enter the starting lineup. However, Haysmith will likely head back to the bench once Martin officially receives the green light, lowering his […]

Kyle Lowry Out Again On Saturday

Miami Heat guard Kyle Lowry (knee) remains out for Saturday's matinee against Milwaukee. The veteran has been bothered by left knee discomfort, costing him his previous two games. As a result, Gabe Vincent, who had a game-high 28 points in the first of consecutive outings with the Bucks on Thursday night, should remain with the […]

Tyler Herro Still Dealing With Sore Achilles

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (Achilles) is questionable for Saturday's rematch with Milwaukee. Miami limped into Thursday's matchup against the Bucks, with the Heat earning a win without Herro and Kyle Lowry (knee), among others. As a result, Gabe Vincent finished with a team-high 28 points, while Victor Oladipo nearly amassed a triple-double. If Herro […]

Isaiah Stewart, Jalen Duren Out Against Pelicans

Detroit Pistons centers Jalen Duren (ankle) and Isaiah Stewart (shoulder) won't play in Friday's game against the Pelicans. Marvin Bagley III (hand) also remains out, so the team is shorthanded underneath the basket. As a result, Nerlens Noel should continue to start, with the 28-year-old averaging 5.0 rebounds, 3.5 points, and 3.5 blocks in two […]

Herbert Jones Sidelined On Friday

New Orleans Pelicans forward Herbert Jones (back) won't suit up against Detroit. Jones will now miss his second consecutive contest because of a back contusion, meaning Dyson Daniels should remain in the starting lineup. The 19-year-old has averaged only 5.7 points and 3.3 rebounds in six starts this season. However, with Brandon Ingram (toe) and […]
