He also totaled four touchdowns, a decline from the previous season. Off the […]

LeBron James Probable For Game 3

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (foot) is probable for Saturday's postseason game against Memphis. His presence on the injury report is only a formality, as the 38-year-old has logged at least 34 minutes during this series. He's played well, too, averaging 24.5 points, 11.5 rebounds, 2.0 blocks, and 1.0 steals. Without question, James is […]

Anthony Davis Expected To Play In Game 3

Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (foot) is probable for Game 3 versus Memphis on Saturday. Davis has been dealing with the foot issue for nearly the entire season, and the shoulder injury he suffered in Game 1 doesn't appear to be an issue. The 30-year-old had a rough offensive showing in the Game 2 […]

Nikola Jokic Available On Friday Night

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (wrist) will play on Friday night against Minnesota. The multi-time MVP has been plagued by a wrist issue, resulting in a miserable 13-point Game 1 performance. However, he bounced back on Wednesday for Game 2, finishing just shy of a triple-double. Jokic appears to be slowly getting better, so DFS […]

Kawhi Leonard Out Again For Game 4

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (knee) won't play on Saturday versus the Suns. He didn't suit up in Game 3 because of a sprained right knee, which has given him issues since the beginning of the series. As a result, Norman Powell, who had a team-high 42 points on Thursday, will be a popular […]

Joel Embiid To Miss Game 4

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) won't play on Saturday against Brooklyn. He had an MRI, revealing a right knee sprain. There's a chance the MVP candidate could be out longer, although the Sixers will keep their fingers crossed he'll be back for Game 5, assuming the series goes in that direction. In the meantime, […]

Ja Morant Practices On Friday

Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant (hand) was a full participant at practice on Friday. He didn't take contact but still did some shooting and dribbling, which is a positive step toward returning to the floor. The 23-year-old re-aggravated a bone bruise in his right hand late in Game 1 and wasn't available for Game 2. […]

Kyle Lowry Back On The Injury Report For Game 3

Miami Heat guard Kyle Lowry (knee) is questionable for Game 3 of the postseason series against Milwaukee. The veteran has averaged only 3.5 points in two postseason appearances in 2022-23, so he's a risky DFS option if he plays. At the same time, Gabe Vincent, who's been getting most of the minutes at the one […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Questionable For Game 3

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (back) is questionable for Saturday's playoff matchup against Miami.

He also had five […]

Danuel House Jr. Questionable For Game 4

Philadelphia 76ers forward Danuel House Jr. (illness) is questionable ahead of Saturday's postseason matchup with Brooklyn. The 29-year-old didn't suit up for Game 3 on Thursday night because of a non-COVID illness.

Kawhi Leonard Day-To-Day, Out For Game 3

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (knee) won't suit up for Thursday's postseason meeting with the Suns. He's dealing with a right knee sprain, the same one he had surgically repaired in 2021. The multi-time All-Star is considered day-to-day. But truth be told, he may not be back this season if the Suns go up […]

Jalen Hurts Had Offseason Procedure

According to Zach Berman of The Athletic, Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts had a "minor procedure" to remove hardware from his ankle stemming from a high-ankle sprain suffered in 2018 while at Alabama. Bergman added that the injury "wasn't structural," with the signal-caller almost immediately returning to his offseason workout regimen. Hurts, who signed a […]

Joe Mixon Pleads Not Guilty To Menacing Charge

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon pleaded not guilty to an aggravated menacing charge on Wednesday. The former Sooner was charged in February before it was dismissed the following day. However, after new evidence emerged, the city refilled the charges. The offseason has been one to forget for Mixon, considering recent reports have surfaced suggesting […]

Tarik Black Signs With Baltimore

Free-agent wide receiver Tarik Black agreed to a deal with the Ravens, with the terms of the contract remaining undisclosed. The 25-year-old hasn't found a stable home since going undrafted in 2021, making stops in Indianapolis and New York (Jets) before joining the Ravens' practice squad at the beginning of 2023. Baltimore added Odell Beckham […]

Jonathan Taylor Not Concerned About A New Deal

Indianapolis Colts running back Jonathan Taylor (ankle) won't be preoccupied with potential contract talks in the near future.

They made an obligation […]

Cameron Payne Questionable On Thursday

Phoenix Suns guard Cameron Payne (back) is questionable ahead of the Game 3 playoff encounter with the Los Angeles Clippers. The 28-year-old hasn't played in the postseason thus far because of lower back soreness, allowing Landry Shamet to receive more minutes. However, Payne or Shamet aren't ideal DFS options one way or the other, especially […]

Jalen McDaniels Uncertain For Game 3

Philadelphia 76ers forward Jalen McDaniels (illness) is questionable ahead of the postseason meeting in Brooklyn. The 25-year-old has averaged only 2.5 points in 19.5 minutes per game in the series with the Nets. However, he's dealing with a non-COVID illness, so he may not be out there. If that's the case, Georges Niang and Danuel […]

Mike Brown Wins Coach Of The Year

Sacramento Kings head coach Mike Brown was named the 2023 NBA Coach of the Year on Wednesday. The 53-year-old is the first person in NBA history to receive all 100 votes for the award, and it comes after he led the Kings to a 48-34 record to end a 16-year postseason drought. This is Brown's […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Out For Game 2

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (back) has been ruled out ahead of the Game 2 postseason meeting with the Heat. The multi-time MVP took a hard fall going up for a basket in Game 1, resulting in his premature departure. Bobby Portis will likely slide into the starting lineup and should be a lock for […]

Ja Morant Not Looking Good For Game 2

According to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, there's "significant doubt" that Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant (hand) will be available for the postseason meeting with the Lakers on Wednesday. The 23-year-old injured his hand after the Game 1 loss to LA. While X-rays were clean, he couldn't use his hand after the contest. That said, the Grizzlies […]

Nicolas Claxton Fails To Score In Game 2

Brooklyn Nets center Nicolas Claxton wasn't a factor in the Game 2 postseason loss to Philly. He failed to register a single point in this one and had just six rebounds and two assists. The 24-year-old has struggled offensively during the series thus far, averaging only 2.5 points in 25.5 minutes. However, Claxton may get […]

Mikal Bridges Struggles On Monday Evening

Brooklyn Nets forward Mikal Bridges struggled in Monday's loss to the 76ers. Philly had his number all night, limiting him to 6-for-15 shooting from the field and 2-for-8 shooting from deep. Fortunately, he went 7-for-9 from the charity stripe and added seven assists, five rebounds, and a steal, so DFS managers still got something from […]

Jaren Jackson Jr. Wins Defensive Player Of The Year

Memphis Grizzlies forward Jaren Jackson Jr. was named the 2022-23 NBA Defensive Player of the Year on Monday night. Jackson, who received 56 first-place votes, had an efficient year despite beginning it on the injured list.

Cameron Johnson Leads Nets In Scoring In Game 2

However, Johnson and his teammates struggled after […]

Tyler Herro Suffers Broken Hand In Game 1

According to Shams Charania of The Athletic, Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (hand) suffered a broken right hand in the Game 1 matchup against Milwaukee.

Giannis Antetokounmpo Returns And Exits Again

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (back) returned to Sunday's Game 1 matchup with the Heat. The multi-time MVP took a rough fall in the first while going up for a basket and landed hard. However, the 28-year-old didn't last long, exiting again in the second quarter with a lower back injury. There should be an […]

Klay Thompson Expects Max Extension This Summer

According to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson expects a max contract extension this summer. The 33-year-old averaged 21.9 points and shot 41.2% from deep this season (69 games), so he's certainly worth it from a production standpoint. However, he's battled injuries over the years and has missed more than enough time […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Exits Game 1 With Injury

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (undisclosed) exited Sunday's Game 1 meeting against Miami. The Freak took a hard fall in the first quarter while going for a basket and came down hard.

X-Rays Negative On Ja Morant

According to Memphis Grizzlies head coach Taylor Jenkins, X-rays were negative on Ja Morant (hand). The 23-year-old was injured in the fourth quarter of the Game 1 loss to the Los Angeles Lakers.
