Isaiah Stewart, Jalen Duren Out Against Pelicans
Detroit Pistons centers Jalen Duren (ankle) and Isaiah Stewart (shoulder) won't play in Friday's game against the Pelicans.

Herbert Jones Sidelined On Friday
New Orleans Pelicans forward Herbert Jones (back) won't suit up against Detroit.

Daniel Gafford Good To Go Against New York
Washington Wizards center Daniel Gafford (ankle) will play on Friday night against the Knicks. The 24-year-old didn't suit up on Wednesday versus the Chicago Bulls, opening the door for Taj Gibson to get the start and finish just shy of a low-end double-double.

Kristaps Porzingis Will Play On Friday Evening
Washington Wizards forward Kristaps Porzingis (ribs) is available on Friday against the Knicks. The veteran only missed one game because of a rib contusion, so he'll be back in the lineup for this one. While Porzingis is always a must-start fantasy option, he could be even more motivated to produce versus his former team.

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd finished with five catches for 51 yards in the Week 18 win over Baltimore.

As long […]

Tee Higgins Goes Cold In Week 18
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins finished with only one catch for seven yards in Sunday's win over Baltimore. Higgins had a touchdown in each of his last four games entering Week 18.

Ja'Marr Chase Finds The End Zone In Season Finale
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase caught eight of his 13 targets for 86 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's win over Baltimore. As expected, the former LSU Tiger led his team in receiving despite Joe Burrow's weak 215-yard passing effort. Chase fell short of matching some of his totals from his inaugural campaign. However, […]

Joe Mixon Scores A Rushing Touchdown On Sunday
Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon had another uneventful performance on the ground in the Week 18 win over Baltimore, amassing 27 yards off 11 touches for a hideous 2.5 yards per carry.

DeShawn Williams Uncertain To Return In Week 18
Denver Broncos defensive tackle DeShawn Williams (knee) is questionable to return on Sunday against the Los Angeles Chargers. The 30-year-old ranks third on the team in sacks this season, So hopefully, the injury isn't anything that will linger into the offseason. Nonetheless, considering the Broncos' season is unofficially finished, it would be surprising if he […]

Joe Burrow Does Enough To Lead Cincy To Another Win
Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow didn't have the best game of his career in the Week 18 win over the Baltimore Ravens. The signal-caller threw 215 yards and only one touchdown while completing 25 of his 42 passing attempts. Fortunately, he still did enough to lead Cincinnati to its eighth consecutive win. The former LSU […]

Mike Williams Carted Off In Week 18
Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams (back) is questionable to return to Sunday's matchup against the Broncos.

However, it resulted in a back injury for Williams, who left the bench on a […]

Luke Kennard Questionable Against Atlanta
Los Angeles Clippers guard Luke Kennard (calf) is questionable for Sunday's game against the visiting Atlanta Hawks. Paul George (hamstring) carries the same designation. As a result, Terance Mann, who's averaged 11.6 points in 15 starts this season, could enter the starting lineup.

Paul George Questionable With Hamstring Soreness
Los Angeles Clippers guard Paul George (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's matchup with Atlanta. The veteran logged only 13 minutes in Thursday's blowout loss to Denver before missing the following night's meeting in Minnesota.

Darius Garland Back On The Injury Report
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Darius Garland (thumb) is questionable ahead of Sunday's meeting in Phoenix. The 22-year-old returned on Friday against Denver following a three-game absence because of a thumb injury. However, he re-aggravated the ailment during the game, so there's a chance he'll get the night off. Donovan Mitchell will likely slide into the point […]

Clint Capela Still Out On Sunday
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (calf) won't play on Sunday versus the Los Angeles Clippers, marking his seventh straight absence. The 28-year-old was initially expected to miss up to two weeks because of a calf strain, which puts him in line to at least have a shot at playing on Wednesday against Milwaukee. However, it […]

Brandon Clarke Out Again On Sunday
Memphis Grizzlies forward Brandon Clarke (hip) remains out on Sunday against Utah, marking his fourth consecutive absence. The 26-year-old is battling left hip soreness, so it remains to be seen if he'll get the green light for Monday's game against the San Antonio Spurs.

Caleb Martin Doubtful Against Brooklyn
Miami Heat forward Caleb Martin (quadriceps) is not anticipated to play in Sunday's matchup with the Brooklyn Nets.

Tyler Herro Questionable With Back Spams On Sunday
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (back) is questionable for Sunday's matchup with the Brooklyn Nets. The reigning Sixth Man of the Year didn't play in Friday's win over the Suns because of back spasms.

Dewayne Dedmon Likely Good To Go On Sunday
Miami Heat center Dewayne Dedmon (foot) is expected to play against the Nets. The 33-year-old journeyman has averaged only 6.0 points and 3.7 rebounds this season, so it wouldn't be a huge loss for fantasy managers if he doesn't suit up. However, with Bam Adebayo (thigh) questionable, there's a chance Dedmon may see more action. […]

Bam Adebayo Questionable Against The Nets
Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo (thigh) is questionable for Sunday's bout against the Brooklyn Nets. The 25-year-old had a double-double, two steals, and a block on Friday versus the Suns.

Broncos Granted Permission To Interview Sean Payton

Steven Adams Uncertain For Sunday's Meeting With Utah
Memphis Grizzlies center Steven Adams (illness) is questionable for Sunday's contest against Utah. The veteran isn't feeling well, which could explain his four-point effort in Friday's meeting with Orlando. However, he did log 30 minutes, which is a good sign. Nonetheless, if Adams doesn't play, Xavier Tillman Sr. and Santi Aldama may see a few […]

Ja Morant Dealing With Thigh Soreness
Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant (thigh) is questionable for Sunday's meeting with the visiting Utah Jazz. The 23-year-old is dealing with a sore right thigh. However, considering he scored 32 points in 35 minutes against the Orlando Magic on Friday, it likely isn't anything serious. Of course, Tyus Jones would fill the void if Morant […]

Bennedict Mathurin Questionable Versus Charlotte
Indiana Pacers guard Bennedict Mathurin (shoulder) is questionable against the visiting Charlotte Hornets. The rookie has played well this season, averaging 17.4 points in 40 games, with nearly all of his appearances coming from the bench. If Mathurin can play, he always warrants fantasy consideration. However, if the shoulder soreness keeps him out, Chris Duarte, […]

Jalen Smith Questionable Against The Hornets
Indiana Pacers forward Jalen Smith (hand) is questionable ahead of Sunday's contest against the Hornets. He didn't play on Friday versus the Portland Trail Blazers because of hand soreness and didn't practice on Saturday, so things aren't looking favorable.
