Fantasy Basketball Injuries From Saturday: Derrick White, Rudy Gobert, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Kyle Lowry, Tyler Herro

It's January, and the National Basketball Association is nearing the halfway point in the 2022-23 season. Although many teams around the league have navigated their way through the year unscathed, other clubs haven't been as fortunate. Yet, when one player goes down, another is right around the corner and ready to step up. This article […]

Bam Adebayo Has Massive Game On Saturday

Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo acquired a double-double in Saturday's win over the Bucks. The big man looked fantastic, ending the day with 20 points, 13 rebounds, and two blocks. He has had the best month of the 2022-23 campaign thus far, averaging 23.2 points in January, even with the ugly 10-point showing versus Brooklyn […]

Gabe Vincent Scores Game-High 27 Points On Saturday

Miami Heat guard Gabe Vincent amassed a game-high 27 points in Saturday's win over Milwaukee. He looked good throughout the matinee, going 11-for-14 from the field and 5-for-8 from deep. The two clubs met back on Thursday, with the 26-year-old also finishing that one as the highest-scoring player. With Kyle Lowry (knee) and Tyler Herro […]

Tee Higgins Hoping To Rebound Against Baltimore

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins (illness) didn't practice on Wednesday. Fortunately, he logged full sessions since then, so he'll be good to go against the Ravens on Sunday. Entering Week 18, the former Clemson Tiger had a touchdown in each of his last four games. However, he fizzled in the season finale, catching just […]

Ja'Marr Chase Hoping For A Repeat Showing Against Baltimore

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase finished the regular season with 1,046 yards and nine touchdowns off 87 receptions. While he didn't match some of the statistical totals from his inaugural campaign, he played five games less, mostly because of a hip injury. Without question, Chase has been on a roll of late, amassing double-digit […]

Joe Mixon A Risky Fantasy Option On Sunday

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon completed the 2022-23 campaign with nine total touchdowns, seven fewer than he had last season. Even worse, he fell short of reaching the 1,000-yard rushing mark. In all fairness, the former Sooner did miss a few games. However, fantasy managers were certainly disappointed with Mixon's lack of production. With […]

Joe Burrow Looking For Another Win Over Baltimore

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow is looking to lead his club to another Super Bowl. However, he'll need to get his team past Baltimore for the second time in as many weeks on Sunday. The signal-caller hasn't been overly productive in his two meetings with the Ravens this season, totaling only two passing touchdowns while […]

Gordon Hayward Doubtful Against Boston

Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (hamstring) is doubtful for Saturday's contest versus the visiting Celtics. The veteran has missed his last five games with hamstring soreness, so it appears he won't be on the floor against his former team. Nonetheless, if Hayward is officially ruled out, Jalen McDaniels will remain in the starting lineup. However, […]

Malcolm Brogdon May Not Play Against Charlotte

Boston Celtics guard Malcolm Brogdon (personal) is questionable for Saturday's meeting with Charlotte. The 30-year-old has averaged 13.6 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 3.8 assists while shooting a career-high 44.3% from deep this season. However, with Jaylen Brown (adductor) out for this one, Brogdon could easily see an uptick in production if he plays. But if […]

Khris Middleton Still Out On Saturday

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (knee) is out again on Saturday against Miami. The 31-year-old has played only seven games this season because of various ailments, so his absence isn't a surprise by any means. Without a timetable for Middleton's return from knee soreness, Pat Connaughton, who's averaged 8.8 points and 4.9 assists in 10 […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Questionable Versus Miami

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) is questionable ahead of Saturday's meeting with Miami. The multi-time MVP didn't play on Thursday for the first of consecutive games against the Heat because of left knee soreness. However, he's no stranger to this issue, so there's a good chance he'll be out there. That said, if Antetokounmpo […]

Caleb Martin Expected To Play On Saturday

Miami Heat forward Caleb Martin (quadriceps) is listed as probable ahead of Saturday's rematch with Milwaukee. The 27-year-old has missed his previous four games with a left quad contusion, allowing Haywood Highsmith to enter the starting lineup. However, Haysmith will likely head back to the bench once Martin officially receives the green light, lowering his […]

Kyle Lowry Out Again On Saturday

Miami Heat guard Kyle Lowry (knee) remains out for Saturday's matinee against Milwaukee. The veteran has been bothered by left knee discomfort, costing him his previous two games. As a result, Gabe Vincent, who had a game-high 28 points in the first of consecutive outings with the Bucks on Thursday night, should remain with the […]

Tyler Herro Still Dealing With Sore Achilles

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (Achilles) is questionable for Saturday's rematch with Milwaukee. Miami limped into Thursday's matchup against the Bucks, with the Heat earning a win without Herro and Kyle Lowry (knee), among others. As a result, Gabe Vincent finished with a team-high 28 points, while Victor Oladipo nearly amassed a triple-double. If Herro […]

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. Marvin Bagley III (hand) also remains out, so the team is shorthanded underneath the basket. As a result, Nerlens Noel should continue to start, with the 28-year-old averaging 5.0 rebounds, 3.5 points, and 3.5 blocks in two […]

Herbert Jones Sidelined On Friday

New Orleans Pelicans forward Herbert Jones (back) won't suit up against Detroit. Jones will now miss his second consecutive contest because of a back contusion, meaning Dyson Daniels should remain in the starting lineup. The 19-year-old has averaged only 5.7 points and 3.3 rebounds in six starts this season. However, with Brandon Ingram (toe) and […]

Brandon Ingram Remains Out Against Detroit

New Orleans Pelicans guard/forward Brandon Ingram (toe) remains out against Detroit. It appears he's nearing a return after missing over a month of action. However, he won't be available on Friday night, making CJ McCollum the favorite to lead the way offensively. Zion Williamson (hamstring) also won't suit up, so guys like Naji Marshall, Dyson […]

Clint Capela Remains Without Return Date

Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (calf) remains without a definitive return date, according to Lauren Williams of the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. The big man has missed nine games because of a calf strain, although it should be worth noting his condition continues to improve. In the meantime, Onyeka Okongwu is expected to continue to replace Capela […]

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. Gafford has averaged only 7.7 points, 4.8 rebounds, and 1.1 blocks this […]

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.

Tyler Boyd Has Five Catches In Week 18

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd finished with five catches for 51 yards in the Week 18 win over Baltimore. The 29-year-old is nowhere near what he was in the two seasons he had over 1,000 receiving yards. However, he still had a decent year, matching his five-touchdown scoring total from last season. 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. Yet, the wideout couldn't make anything out of his seven targets from Joe Burrow. Even worse, he took a hard hit that […]

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. Fortunately, he found the end zone, scoring off a one-yard run in the opening quarter, his first rushing touchdown in over two […]

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. It's a meaningless game for LA, although head coach Brandon Staley opted to keep his starters on the field longer than expected. 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. Considering he's dealt with the ailment for a while now but has played through it, it's reasonable to assume he'll be […]

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 […]
