Kawhi Leonard Getting The Night Off On Friday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (knee) won't play on Friday evening versus the Sacramento Kings.

Norman Powell (shoulder) and Marcus Morris Sr. (elbow) are also out, while Ivica Zubac […]

Cam Reddish Back In The Starting Lineup On Friday

Portland Trail Blazers forward Cam Reddish will start on Friday versus the Atlanta Hawks. Anfernee Simons is back on the injury report, so Reddish will roll with the first five against his former squad. The 23-year-old has averaged 11.2 points in 1.3 steals in 14 starts this season, so he'll be worth a look for […]

Jaylen Brown Available Versus Brooklyn

Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown (face) is available on Friday night versus the Brooklyn Nets. Brown has been a routine occupant on the injury report because of the facial fracture suffered before the All-Star break. However, he'll be good to go and expected to see a full workload, meaning significantly fewer minutes for Sam Hauser […]

Stephen Curry Expects To Play On Sunday

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (leg) expects to play on Sunday against the Los Angeles Lakers. The 34-year-old, who has missed nearly a month because of a leg injury, has averaged 17.5 points, 5.9 assists, 4.5 rebounds, and 1.6 steals this season while shooting 43.7% from deep. While the Warriors are looking to make […]

Jonathan Isaac Done For The Season

Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac (groin) will miss the remainder of the season. The 25-year-old underwent surgery on Friday to repair a torn left adductor muscle, resulting in a premature end to another season.

Vassell will likely be back in the lineup for […]

Keldon Johnson Doubtful On Saturday

San Antonio Spurs guard Keldon Johnson (foot) isn't expected to play on Saturday versus the Houston Rockets.

The Spurs are banged up entering this one, with Doug McDermott (thumb), Devin […]

Trae Young Probable Versus Portland

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (groin) is expected to play on Friday night against the Portland Trail Blazers. The 24-year-old is listed as probable on the injury report because of right groin soreness. However, barring a significant setback, he should be out there. Young has played well of late, scoring 31 points or more in […]

P.J. Washington Not Expected To Play On Friday

Charlotte Hornets forward P.J. Washington (foot) is considered doubtful ahead of Friday's meeting with the Orlando Magic. This will presumably be his fourth consecutive absence as he works his way back from a strained right foot. In the meantime, JT Thor is expected to remain in the starting lineup. Thor hasn't played well in his […]

Kristaps Porzingis Removed From The Injury Report

Washington Wizards forward Kristaps Porzingis (knee) isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Thursday's meeting with Toronto. The veteran missed the last two games with left knee soreness, allowing Deni Avdija to enter the starting lineup.

Monte Morris Out Again On Thursday

Washington Wizards guard Monte Morris (back) is out for Thursday's contest versus the visiting Toronto Raptors, marking his third straight absence because of low back soreness. Delon Wright has been starting in Morris' place, with the 30-year-old going for nine points, four assists, and one block against the Atlanta Hawks on Tuesday evening. That said, […]

Anfernee Simons Could Return On Wednesday

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (ankle) is questionable ahead of Wednesday's game versus the New Orleans Pelicans. The 23-year-old has missed his last three games because of a right ankle sprain. However, Simons was expected to be out longer, so it looks like he's close to returning, even if he doesn't get the green […]

D'Angelo Russell Won't Play On Wednesday

Los Angeles Lakers guard D'Angelo Russell (ankle) won't play on Wednesday night versus Oklahoma City. The 27-year-old will now miss his third consecutive contest, with his next chance to suit up coming on Friday against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Bucs Expected To Part Ways With Donovan Smith

Tampa Bay Buccaneers left tackle Donovan Smith is expected to be released.

According to Brady Henderson of ESPN, the Seahawks haven't ruled out selecting a quarterback in the NFL Draft.

Larry Nance Jr. Unavailable Against Orlando

New Orleans Pelicans forward Larry Nance Jr. (ankle) is listed as out ahead of Monday's meeting with the Orlando Magic. The 30-year-old sprained his left ankle during Saturday's game against the New York Knicks and was observed leaving the arena using crutches, so he'll likely miss even more games moving ahead. With Zion Williamson (hamstring) […]

Jaylen Brown Won't Play On Monday

Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown (personal) won't play in Monday's game against the New York Knicks. The 26-year-old is dealing with a private matter, so it's anyone's guess if he'll return for Wednesday's meeting with the visiting Cleveland Cavaliers. In the meantime, Derrick White (ankle), who is probable, should take Brown's spot in the lineup. […]

Derrick White Probable On Monday

Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (ankle) is expected to play on Monday against the Knicks. He has a sprained ankle. However, he's been healthy all year, so it would be a surprise if he didn't suit up for this one. The 28-year-old has been a stable fantasy producer during the 2022-23 campaign. But with Jaylen […]

Kevin Love Expected To Play Versus Philly

Miami Heat forward Kevin Love (knee) is probable ahead of Monday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. The 34-year-old has a hyperextended left knee. However, considering Miami has been overly cautious with listing its players on the injury report, fantasy managers shouldn't worry too much. Love finished with a 13-point, 13-rebound double on Saturday versus the […]

Bojan Bogdanovic Questionable Versus Charlotte

Detroit Pistons forward Bojan Bogdanovic (Achilles) is questionable for Monday's matchup against the Charlotte Hornets. The veteran is dealing with Achilles soreness.

Quin Snyder Named Hawks Head Coach

According to ESPN senior NBA insider Adrian Wojnarowski, the Hawks appointed Quin Snyder to fill its vacant head coaching position.

Jamal Murray Probable Against The Clippers

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (foot) is expected to play on Sunday night against the Los Angeles Clippers. Murray usually finds his name on the injury report because of his knee. However, he's bothered by right foot inflammation, although it doesn't appear severe enough to keep him out. Murray logged 25 minutes on Saturday in […]

Aaron Gordon Still Out On Sunday

Denver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon (rib) remains out on Sunday versus the Los Angeles Clippers. The 25-year-old has a rib contusion, which has kept him off the floor since before the All-Star break. As a result, Vlatko Cancar should continue to take Gordon's spot in the rotation, averaging 9.8 points and 3.9 rebounds in eight […]

Ivica Zubac Won't Play Against Denver

Los Angeles Clippers center Ivica Zubac (calf) will miss Sunday's meeting in Denver, marking his second consecutive absence. Mason Plumlee took his spot on Friday night in the double overtime loss to the Sacramento Kings, finishing with 10 points and 10 rebounds in 25 minutes. Plumlee has some value in deep fantasy formats, considering he's […]

Draymond Green Could Miss Another Game

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green (knee) is questionable ahead of Sunday's meeting with the Minnesota Timberwolves. The 32-year-old has a right knee contusion, which kept him off the floor for Friday's matchup against the Houston Rockets. Jonathan Kuminga entered the starting lineup for that one, finishing the night with only seven points in 24 […]

Andrew Wiggins Remains Out On Sunday Night

Golden State Warriors forward Andrew Wiggins (personal) is out for Sunday's meeting with Minnesota. The 28-year-old is tending to a private matter, so he'll now miss his fourth consecutive contest. Head coach Steve Kerr didn't reveal when Wiggins will return. However, until that happens, Donte DiVincenzo, who had 15 points and shot 5-for-9 from deep […]

Monte Morris Out, Delon Wright Starting Versus Bulls

Washington Wizards guard Monte Morris (back) won't play on Sunday versus the Chicago Bulls. As a result, Delon Wright will take his place in the lineup. Wright has averaged 7.0 assists, 4.5 rebounds, and 3.5 points in two starts this season. However, with Kristaps Porzingis (knee) sidelined, Wright's scoring total may be much higher.

Dennis Schroder Will Start Versus The Mavs

Los Angeles Lakers guard Dennis Schroder will start on Sunday versus the Mavericks, according to Jovan Buha of The Athletic. D'Angelo Russell (ankle) won't play after injuring his right ankle on Thursday versus the Golden State Warriors, so Schroder may see more work beyond Sunday's contest. The 29-year-old has averaged 13.0 points in 41 starts […]

D'Angelo Russell Sidelined On Sunday Afternoon

Los Angeles Lakers guard D'Angelo Russell (ankle) is out on Sunday against the Mavericks. The 27-year-old injured his right ankle during Thursday's meeting with Golden State, ending his night after just eight minutes of work. It's anyone's guess how long Russell will be out. However, Dennis Schroder, who had 13 points, six boards, one steal, […]
