Atlanta Hawks forward Zaccharie Risacher (adductor) remains out heading into Saturday's meeting with the Celtics. The 19-year-old, who wasn't available in the win over the Bulls because of an adductor strain, has been inconsistent for fantasy managers this season, averaging 10.5 points and 3.5 rebounds. He's also shot just 28.1% from behind the arc. Until […]

De'Andre Hunter Expected To Play On Saturday

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (foot) is probable for Saturday's game in Boston. The 27-year-old was sidelined for recent meetings with Phoenix and Chicago due to foot soreness.

Ja Morant Ruled Out Versus The Spurs

Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant (foot) won't suit up versus the Spurs on Friday. The 25-year-old had 21 points, 12 assists, and two steals when the Grizzlies and Spurs met on Wednesday night, the first of back-to-back contests between the clubs. However, he popped up on the injury report due to foot soreness. Without Morant […]

Trae Young Probable Against The Celtics

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (rib) is expected to play on Saturday versus the Celtics.

However, with Young likely to […]

Jusuf Nurkic Out Again On Saturday

Phoenix Suns center Jusuf Nurkic (illness) won't play on Saturday in Detroit. The 30-year-old has missed the last five games because of an illness, although it's been reported the Suns are looking to move him. But with no teams interested in his services, at least at the moment, there's a chance he'll remain on the […]

Bradley Beal Not Expected To Play Versus Detroit

Phoenix Suns forward Bradley Beal (ankle) is doubtful ahead of Saturday's matchup with the Pistons. The veteran tweaked his ankle and wasn't available versus the Wizards on Thursday. But it appears he'll miss his 11th game of the 2024-25 campaign on Saturday night. Without him, Ryan Dunn will likely remain in the starting lineup, with […]

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Now Uncertain For Friday Night

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (wrist) is uncertain to play on Friday versus Dallas. He hasn't been listed on the league's official injury report, at least not yet.

Karl-Anthony Towns Out Again On Friday

New York Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns (thumb) won't play on Friday versus Minnesota. KAT is dealing with multiple issues involving his thumb, a sprain and a bone chip.

Jalen Johnson Questionable For Saturday Night

The 23-year-old is having a fantastic season, averaging 19.8 points, 10.1 rebounds, 5.3 assists, and 1.1 blocks. He missed the last five games because of shoulder inflammation. But even if Johnson doesn't suit up on Saturday night, the questionable tag at […]

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (back) won't play on Friday in New Orleans. He'll now miss his third-straight game because of back spasms. With Walker Kessler (rest), John Collins (hip), and Jordan Clarkson (foot) also ruled out, the Jazz will presumably get most of their production from Collin Sexton, Keyonte George, and Brice Sensabaugh. Cody […]

Walker Kessler Resting On Friday Evening

Utah Jazz center Walker Kessler (rest) won't play on Friday in New Orleans. The 2022 No. 22 overall pick didn't suit up for Sunday's narrow win over the Brooklyn Nets for the same reason, opening the door for Drew Eubanks to get the start and finish with eight points, nine boards, and three blocks. With […]

Mark Williams Expected To Play Versus The Bulls

Charlotte Hornets center Mark Williams (knee) is probable for Friday's matchup with the Bulls. The 22-year-old missed the first 20 games of the 2024-25 campaign because of various ailments.

The 22-year-old had 20 points, five boards, three steals, and one block in Wednesday's victory over the Utah Jazz. But he's uncertain to suit up on Friday because of a wrist sprain. Miller has already missed 10 games this […]

Goga Bitadze Out Again On Friday Night

Orlando Magic center Goga Bitadze (concussion protocol) won't play on Friday night against Boston. He exited Sunday's win over the Philadelphia 76ers because of a hip contusion and was kept off the floor for Wednesday's matchup with the Milwaukee Bucks. However, head coach Jamahl Mosley indicated Bitadze had "some late symptoms," so the team will […]

Jamal Murray Good To Go On Wednesday

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (knee) will play against the Rockets on Wednesday. The veteran is coming off a stellar performance, scoring 45 points in Tuesday's win over the Dallas Mavericks. With Nikola Jokic (elbow) and Aaron Gordon (calf) both sidelined, Murray has an excellent chance to keep it going on the offensive end versus […]

Nikola Jokic Out Versus The Rockets

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (elbow) won't play on Wednesday versus the Rockets. The multi-time MVP missed a few games last week because of an illness. However, right elbow inflammation will keep him off the floor against the Rockets. Without Jokic, DeAndre Jordan might draw the start. The veteran had 12 points, nine rebounds, and […]

Karl-Anthony Towns Dealing With Multiple Issues With His Thumb

New York Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns (thumb) was ruled out ahead of Wednesday's game against the 76ers. It is already known that KAT has a sprained thumb.

However, he had trouble getting his shots to fall, finishing with only 11 points while making four of his 18 attempts from the field. With […]

Hornets Acquire Josh Okogie In A Trade With Phoenix

The Hornets acquired forward Josh Okogie from the Suns on Wednesday night. In exchange, Phoenix will receive center Nick Richards. Okogie has averaged only 6.0 points and 2.9 rebounds this season. But he'll at least bring his defensive prowess with him to a Hornets squad that has allowed 112.4 points per game during the 2024-25 […]

Suns Acquire Nick Richards From The Hornets

According to ESPN's Shams Charania, the Suns acquired center Nick Richards from the Hornets. In exchange, Charlotte will receive Josh Okogie. Richards has had some potent performances over the years and has averaged 11.3 points, 10.2 rebounds, and 1.7 blocks in nine starts during the 2024-25 campaign. However, with Mark Williams healthy, the 27-year-old has […]

Jalen Brunson Available On Wednesday

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson (shoulder) will play on Wednesday against the 76ers. The 28-year-old injured his shoulder in Sunday's win over the Milwaukee Bucks. However, he still felt good enough to end the day with 44 points. As usual, Brunson is a must-start in any fantasy format. But with Karl-Anthony Towns (thumb) ruled […]

Tyrese Maxey Available On Wednesday Night

Philadelphia 76ers guard Tyrese Maxey (hand) will play on Wednesday versus the Knicks. The 24-year-old didn't play in Tuesday's loss to OKC, allowing Reggie Jackson to start.

Goga Bitadze Sidelined Against Milwaukee

Orlando Magic center Goga Bitadze (hip) won't play on Wednesday versus Milwaukee. The 25-year-old is having the best season of his career, averaging 9.6 points, 8.2 rebounds, and 1.2 blocks.

Dereck Lively II Ruled Out On Wednesday

Dallas Mavericks center Dereck Lively II (ankle) won't play on Wednesday versus the Pelicans. The 20-year-old suffered a sprained ankle in Tuesday's loss to the Denver Nuggets, ending his night after only four minutes of work. Fortunately, X-rays were negative, so fantasy managers should consider him day-to-day. In the meantime, Daniel Gafford, averaging 12.8 points, […]

Tyrese Maxey In Danger Of Missing Another Game

Philadelphia 76ers guard Tyrese Maxey (hand) is questionable for Wednesday's meeting with the Knicks. Head coach Nick Nurse is "hopeful" the 24-year-old will play on Wednesday, and he'll work out ahead of the contest to determine if he can go. But Joel Embiid (foot) is already ruled out, and Paul George (ankle) is questionable, so […]

Zion Williamson Taking The Night Off On Wednesday

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson won't play on Wednesday against Dallas. The former Duke Blue Devil finished with 21 points, nine assists, and seven boards against the Bulls on Tuesday night, and he was only on the floor for 24 minutes. But he'll take the night off to rest on Wednesday before likely returning […]

Trae Young Out Against The Bulls

Bam Adebayo Could Miss Another Game On Wednesday

Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo (back) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Lakers. The 27-year-old missed his first game of the season on Monday versus the Clippers. As a result, Kevin Love got the start. However, it was Kel'el Ware (probable) who took advantage, with the rookie finishing the night with 19 points, 13 […]

Joel Embiid "Day-To-Day"

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot) didn't play in Tuesday's loss to OKC. However, it appears he has a chance of returning for Wednesday's game against the Knicks, with head coach Nick Nurse labeling the multi-time All-Star as "day-to-day." Embiid, who hasn't been as productive this season, has appeared in only 13 of Philly's 38 […]

Dereck Lively II Won't Return Against Denver

Dallas Mavericks center Dereck Lively II (ankle) was ruled out for the remainder of Tuesday's matchup with the Nuggets. Lively logged four points and a block. However, he played only four minutes before suffering a right ankle sprain. The 20-year-old has missed eight contests this season, so fantasy managers are hoping the latest injury won't […]
