Ezekiel Elliott Inactive For Week 9

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott won't play on Sunday versus the Atlanta Falcons. He didn't travel with the team, with the Cowboys declaring him inactive due to disciplinary reasons. The 29-year-old hasn't been productive during the 2024-25 campaign, totaling only 149 yards and two touchdowns on the ground, meaning there aren't many who will […]

Kevin Huerter Out Versus Toronto

Sacramento Kings guard Kevin Huerter (illness) won't play on Saturday in Toronto. The 26-year-old struggled in Friday's win over the Hawks, amassing 10 points and shooting 2-for-8 from behind the arc. He's under the weather, so his next chance to get back on the floor will be on Monday in Miami. But until then, Keon […]

Stephen Curry Spotted At Shootaround

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (ankle) remains out on Saturday versus the Houston Rockets. However, the multi-time All-Star is moving in the right direction. He participated in Saturday's shootaround, and the Warriors report he will be re-evaluated on Sunday. Curry has been out of the equation since suffering a sprained ankle in a recent […]

Lauri Markkanen Out Again On Saturday

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (back) won't play against the Nuggets on Saturday. The 27-year-old exited Tuesday's game versus the Kings and didn't suit up on Thursday against the visiting Spurs. He was listed as doubtful heading into this one. But now that Markkanen is officially sidelined, his next chance to suit up will be […]

Jaylen Brown Won't Play On Saturday Night

Boston Celtics forward Jaylen Brown (hip) won't play on Saturday against Charlotte. The Celtics and Hornets met on Friday night, the first of back-to-back games between the clubs, with Brown finishing the night by scoring 25 points, adding six rebounds, five assists, one steal, and one block. He's bothered by a hip flexor strain, so […]

Andrei Iosivas Worth A Look In Week 9

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Andrei Iosivas was held without a catch in the Week 8 loss to the Eagles. With Tee Higgins (quadriceps) sidelined for that one, most expected Iosivas would be more involved. However, that didn't happen. With Higgins in line to miss Sunday's game against the Las Vegas Raiders, targets will be up […]

Ja'Marr Chase In Line For Another Strong Showing On Sunday

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase has been one of the best wideouts in the National Football League this season, as expected. While he got off to a slow start, he's been on a roll by finding the end zone seven times since the Monday night loss to the Washington Commanders. With Tee Higgins (quadriceps) […]

Chase Brown Likely To See More Involvement Versus Vegas

Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown has taken over as the undisputed option out of the backfield. Granted, Zack Moss (neck) has remained involved. However, with Moss doubtful for the Week 9 matchup with the Las Vegas Raiders, that should mean even more work for Brown. The 24-year-old has found the end zone at least […]

Joe Burrow Hoping To Rebound In Week 9

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow couldn't lift his squad to a win over the Philadelphia Eagles. With Cincinnati sitting at 3-5 on the season, the signal-caller will try to get the Bengals on track with a win over the Raiders on Sunday. Burrow had thrown at least two touchdowns in five of his seven appearances […]

Kyle Kuzma Out Again On Saturday

Jamal Murray Won't Return On Friday Night

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (concussion) won't return to Friday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He struggled throughout the contest, amassing only six points while shooting 2-for-7 from the field (0-for-3 from deep). Unfortunately, a collision with Julius Randle landed Murray in concussion protocol, ending his night abruptly. The 27-year-old has an extensive injury history, […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Anticipated To Play Versus Cleveland

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) is probable heading into Saturday's game against the Cavaliers.

But the veteran will take the night off before presumably suiting up for the rematch with the Hornets on Saturday. With that said, […]

D'Angelo Russell Will Suit Up Versus Toronto

Los Angeles Lakers guard D'Angelo Russell (back) will play against the Raptors on Friday night. He continues to battle back soreness. However, it hasn't cost him any games yet this season. Unfortunately, Russell has struggled in the Lakers' five games, averaging 10.8 points, 5.8 assists, and 25.0% shooting from behind the arc. He should break […]

Anthony Davis Available Against Toronto

Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (hip) will play on Friday versus Toronto. Davis' appearance on the injury report is nothing new for fantasy managers. However, he was listed as probable, so the latest update confirms what most had anticipated. The 31-year-old is having an MVP-caliber season, averaging 30.6 points, 12.2 rebounds, 2.0 blocks, and […]

Zach LaVine Will Play Against Brooklyn

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (shoulder) will play on Friday versus the Brooklyn Nets. The veteran was questionable because of an AC joint sprain. However, he'll be out there for the Bulls.

Immanuel Quickley Out Again On Friday Night

Toronto Raptors guard Immanuel Quickley (pelvis) won't suit up on Friday versus the Los Angeles Lakers. The 25-year-old last played in the opener versus the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Anthony Black Starting Versus Cleveland

Orlando Magic guard Anthony Black will start on Friday versus the undefeated Cavaliers. With Paolo Banchero (oblique) sidelined, Black will get his chance to roll with the first five.

Franz Wagner Cleared For Friday Night

Orlando Magic forward Franz Wagner (illness) will play on Friday versus the undefeated Cavaliers. The 23-year-old has been under the weather, forcing his premature exit in the Magic's previous two contests. Hopefully, he'll see his usual workload against Cleveland. If that's the case, Wagner could finish the game as Orlando's highest scorer, considering Paolo Banchero […]

Desmond Bane Won't Face The 76ers

Memphis Grizzlies forward Desmond Bane (oblique) won't play on Saturday against the 76ers. Bane suffered an oblique strain in Wednesday's loss to the Brooklyn Nets and didn't play on Thursday versus the visiting Bucks. Marcus Smart (ankle) was also sidelined for that one, opening the door for Jaylen Wells and Santi Aldama to enter the […]

Marcus Smart Missing Another One On Saturday

Memphis Grizzlies guard Marcus Smart (ankle) won't play on Saturday in Philadelphia. The 2022 NBA Defensive Player of the Year tweaked his ankle in Wednesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets and wasn't available on Thursday versus Milwaukee. Jaylen Wells got the start, finishing with 16 points and seven rebounds while shooting 50% from behind the […]

CJ McCollum Remains Out On Friday Night

New Orleans Pelicans guard CJ McCollum (adductor) won't play in Friday's game versus the Pacers. The veteran wasn't available for Wednesday's loss to the Warriors because of adductor soreness.

The former Pelican has played well in his first four games with the Hawks, averaging 12.8 points, 4.3 rebounds, 2.8 steals, and 1.0 blocks. However, he's now dealing with a hip flexor strain, so he'll miss his second consecutive contest of […]

Myles Turner In Danger Of Missing Another Game

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (ankle) is questionable for Friday's matchup versus the New Orleans Pelicans. The 28-year-old averaged 15.0 points, 6.3 rebounds, 2.0 blocks, and 1.0 steals in the Pacers' first four games this season. Unfortunately, he missed Wednesday's overtime win over the Boston Celtics because of a sprained ankle. Isaiah Jackson got the […]

Karl-Anthony Towns Questionable Versus The Pistons

New York Knicks forward/center Karl-Anthony Towns (wrist) is questionable for Friday's contest against the Detroit Pistons. KAT was decent in his first three games as a Knick. Yet, he came to life in Wednesday's win over the Miami Heat, ending the night with 44 points and 13 rebounds while going 4-for-5 from behind the arc. […]

LeBron James Officially Active On Wednesday

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (illness) will play on Wednesday versus the undefeated Cavs. The multi-time All-Star is under the weather.
