Frank Ntilikina Questionable For Game 4

Dallas Mavericks guard Frank Ntilikina (illness) is questionable ahead of the Game 4 postseason outing versus Utah. The 23-year-old is recovering from a tonsillectomy and hasn't played in a few weeks. However, even if Ntilikina is available and Luka Doncic (calf) isn't, the 2017 No. 8 overall pick shouldn't be an attractive option for DFS […]

Blake Griffin Considered Day-To-Day

Brooklyn Nets forward Blake Griffin (ankle) is questionable ahead of the Game 3 playoff meeting against the Celtics. The 33-year-old is dealing with a sprained left ankle. However, he hasn't done anything this postseason, so his availability on Saturday in either direction won't impact DFS managers.

Matisse Thybulle Out For Game 4

Philadelphia 76ers guard Matisse Thybulle won't play in Saturday's postseason bout versus the Toronto Raptors. The 25-year-old hasn't received a full dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, so he's not permitted to enter Canada. As a result, Danny Green, who played 46 minutes and finished with nine points, seven boards, and two steals during the Sixers' […]

Ben Simmons To Play In Game 4, Barring A Setback

Brooklyn Nets guard Ben Simmons will suit up for Game 4 of the postseason series against the Celtics on Monday evening, barring a setback. Simmons hasn't played all season and was dealt by Philadelphia for James Harden ahead of the trade deadline. It isn't known if the former LSU Tiger has improved on the offensive […]

Robert Williams III Expects To Play In Game 3

Boston Celtics center Robert Williams III (knee) intends to play in Game 3 of the postseason series with the Nets. Williams had left meniscus surgery on March 30, and while it's good news for a Boston to get him back, he'll see a limited workload on Saturday, with more minutes likely to be added in […]

Joel Embiid Not On The Injury Report Ahead Of Game 4

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (thumb) isn't listed on the league's official injury report ahead of Saturday's matchup against Toronto. The MVP candidate was recently seen wearing a soft cast on his right thumb, and he's reportedly dealing with a significant amount of pain and discomfort. He may have a torn ligament, so despite averaging […]

George Hill Out For Game 3

Milwaukee Bucks guard George Hill (abdomen) is out on Friday night. The veteran hasn't played at all during the postseason series with the Bulls, which is unfortunate considering Milwaukee will be without Khris Middleton for the foreseeable future. Nonetheless, even if Hill makes it back, he likely won't see enough minutes to make a difference […]

DeSean Jackson Not Ruling Out Retirement

Free-agent wide receiver DeSean Jackson is considering retirement. However, he's also open to return for a "great quarterback." The 35-year-old has been one of the most impactful wideouts throughout the years, amassing five seasons with over 1,000 receiving yards. He also had a career-best 22.5 YPC last year while playing for two teams, the Rams […]

J.J. Arcega-Whiteside Moving To Tight End

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver J.J. Arcega-Whiteside will move to tight end. The 25-year-old hasn't been the most impactful wideout since entering the league in 2019, accumulating just 16 catches for 290 yards and one touchdown. However, he's reportedly open to the transition, and while he likely wouldn't have garnered much interest at his previous position, […]

Greg Stroman Signs With Chicago

Free-agent cornerback Greg Stroman agreed to a one-year deal with the Chicago Bears. The 26-year-old was selected in the seventh round of the 2018 NFL Draft. He has played sparingly since entering the league, and his most noteworthy year came during his rookie campaign, where he finished with 38 total tackles and an interception throughout […]

David Moore Inks Deal With Chicago

Free-agent wide receiver David Moore signed a one-year contract with the Bears on Thursday. Moore, who was selected by the Seahawks in the seventh round of the 2017 NFL Draft, has accumulated 78 receptions for 1,163 yards and 13 touchdowns during his career. Moore isn't the most reliable fantasy option by any means, and he […]

Stephen Curry To Get More Minutes In Game 3

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry will get more minutes during the Game 3 playoff meeting against the Nuggets. The veteran continues to recover from a left foot sprain, relegating him to just 22.5 minutes per game in the series with Denver. Curry will likely come off the bench once again on Thursday night, although […]

Andre Iguodala Likely To Suit Up In Game 3

Golden State Warriors forward Andre Iguodala (neck) is expected to play during Game 3 of the postseason series against the Denver Nuggets. The 38-year-old played only 13 minutes in Game 1 and didn't see the court in Game 2, so he likely won't be featured in many DFS lineups. However, the veteran can be a […]

Trent Forrest To Miss Another Game On Thursday

Utah Jazz guard Trent Forrest (foot) won't play on Thursday night against the Dallas Mavericks. The 23-year-old hasn't played since April 8th because of a left foot sprain. However, with the Jazz at full strength, Forrest wouldn't have played much anyway.

Frank Ntilikina Out On Thursday Night

Dallas Mavericks guard Frank Ntilikina (illness) won't play on Thursday during the Game 3 matchup versus Utah. Ntilikina continues to recover from a tonsillectomy, although he wasn't expected to have much of a role in the lineup anyway, even with Luka Doncic (calf) out with a left calf strain. Nonetheless, there's a chance the 23-year-old […]

Khris Middleton Out Indefinitely

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (knee) is out indefinitely. The veteran sustained a sprained left MCL during the Game 2 postseason loss to Chicago and is anticipated to miss at least Games 3 and 4. However, he is considered out indefinitely, so there's a real chance he'll be sidelined even longer. Nonetheless, Giannis Antetokounmpo and […]

Ben Simmons Playing In Game 4 A "Realistic Target"

Brooklyn Nets guard Ben Simmons (back) could be nearing a return, with Game 4 being a realistic target for the former 76er to make his debut. Brooklyn could certainly use him out there, primarily with the Celtics currently owning a two-game lead in the series. Nonetheless, if Simmons makes it back on Monday night, he […]

Devin Booker Could Be Out For Up To Three Weeks

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (hamstring) could miss up to three weeks. The superstar didn't return to Game 2 on Tuesday night after suffering a Grade 1 right hamstring strain in the third quarter. It's horrific news for the Suns, who had initially expected Booker to miss only a few games. However, Chris Paul will […]

Luka Doncic Ruled Out For Game 3

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (calf) won't play on Thursday night against Utah. The 23-year-old has already missed the first two games of the series because of a left calf strain. However, despite the team being hopeful he would be back by now, it appears Jalen Brunson and Spencer Dinwiddie will once again be running […]

Deebo Samuel Not A Fan Of Hybrid Role

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel requested to be traded a few weeks ago, according to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero. While it's unknown exactly why the 26-year-old wants out of the Bay Area, Pelissero hinted it might have something to do with his workload. Samuel is reportedly unhappy with his role on offense and […]

Vinny Curry Back With The Jets

Defensive end Vinny Curry re-signed with the Jets on Wednesday. The 33-year-old missed all of last season because of blood clots, forcing him to take blood thinners and barring him from physical contact for up to six months. Undoubtedly, Curry has been a menace for opposing offensive lineman, racking up 141 solo tackles and 32.5 […]

Saquon Barkley Motivated To Return To Prominence

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley is determined to re-establish himself as an elite back this season. "I just want to kill, just go crazy," Barkley said during a recent interview with reporters. The No. 2 overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft finished his rookie campaign by compiling 1,307 rushing yards and 15 […]

Bam Adebayo Playing In Game 3

Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo (quadriceps) will play in Game 2 of the playoff series against the Atlanta Hawks. The big man had been riding the injury report throughout Tuesday because of a left quad contusion. However, he is ready to go and will be posted at his usual five spot. Adebayo had a rough […]

Bogdan Bogdanovic Available On Tuesday Night

Atlanta Hawks guard Bogdan Bogdanovic (ankle) is listed as available leading up to Tuesday's playoff meeting with the Miami Heat. The veteran has been battling left ankle soreness, although he never appeared to be in any real danger of missing this one. Bogdanovic had just six points on 0-for-8 shooting in Game 1, so he […]

Gary Trent Jr. Questionable For Game 3

Toronto Raptors guard Gary Trent Jr. (illness) has been deemed questionable ahead of Game 3 of the playoff series versus Philly. Trent doesn't have COVID-19, although his condition relegated him to just 10 minutes of action in Game 2. If he can play, managers should acknowledge that he likely won't be fully healthy. Scottie Barnes […]

Scottie Barnes Doubtful For Game 3 On Wednesday

Toronto Raptors forward Scottie Barnes (ankle) is unlikely to play in Game 3 of the postseason matchup against the Philadelphia 76ers. The rookie was well on his way to a triple-double during the first game of the series. However, he suffered a sprained left ankle in that one and hasn't seen the floor since. Nonetheless, […]

Lou Williams Out Again On Tuesday Night

Atlanta Hawks guard Lou Williams (back) is out for Game 2 of the playoff meeting with the Miami Heat. The most recent update concerning his availability shouldn't surprise anyone, primarily since he hasn't played since the April 5th showdown with the Toronto Raptors. Williams, who averaged only 6.3 points per game during the regular season, […]

Mavs Optimistic Luka Doncic Will Return For Game 3

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (calf) has yet to play during the postseason series against the Utah Jazz. He's currently sidelined with a strained left calf. Yet, the team remains hopeful he will return for Game 3. For now, fantasy managers should officially consider Doncic as day-to-day. However, if he can't suit up on Thursday […]

Ben Simmons Cleared For Contact, Plays 4-On-4

Brooklyn Nets guard Ben Simmons (back) has been cleared for contact and has been participating in 4-on-4 practice sessions. While the former 76er has already been ruled out for Game 2 of the series versus the Boston Celtics, head coach Steve Nash stated he's moving in the right direction. The 25-year-old, who was acquired from […]

Celtics Planning To Be Without Robert Williams III

Boston Celtics center Robert Williams III (knee) suffered a torn left meniscus in March but may return at some point during the postseason series with the Brooklyn Nets. However, according to head coach Ime Udoka, the team continues to plan that its big man won't be available. Nonetheless, even if Williams can make it back […]
