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. Oshae Brissett, who had five points in 20 minutes in his previous appearance, should continue to […]

Gordon Hayward Doubtful On Sunday

Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (hamstring) is doubtful for Sunday's matchup with the Indiana Pacers. The veteran has missed the last two games because of hamstring soreness, so it appears he is working his way toward a third consecutive absence. With Kelly Oubre Jr. (hand) also out, Jalen McDaniels will continue to start and has […]

Gary Payton II Likely To Play In Toronto

Portland Trail Blazers guard Gary Payton II (ankle) is expected to play on Sunday against the Toronto Raptors. The former Warrior finally made his 2022-23 debut on Monday versus the Detroit Pistons after undergoing core muscle surgery in the offseason. Unfortunately, he sprained his right ankle in that one, ending his night after only 13 […]

Jusuf Nurkic Expected To Suit Up On Sunday

Portland Trail Blazers center Jusuf Nurkic (illness) is probable for Sunday's meeting in Toronto. The big man has been under the weather of late. However, it didn't stop him from amassing a 19-rebound, 14-point double-double in Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers. Of course, fantasy managers should check Nurkic's official status before opening tip because […]

Isaiah Livers Remains Out Against Philadelphia

Detroit Pistons forward Isaiah Livers (shoulder) remains out for Sunday's meeting against Philadelphia. He hasn't played in over a month because of a right shoulder sprain, so it's anyone's guess how much more time he'll miss. Marvin Bagley III (hand) also won't play, as expected, and Jalen Duren (ankle) is questionable. As a result, Saddiq […]

Jalen Duren Questionable Against Philly

Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's meeting with the 76ers. The rookie is plagued by right ankle soreness. However, he logged 27 minutes on Friday in San Antonio, so even if he misses this one, he'll likely be back for Tuesday's rematch with Philly at home (or soon after). Isaiah Livers […]

P.J. Tucker Won't Play On Sunday

Philadelphia 76ers forward P.J. Tucker (illness) won't play on Sunday against Detroit. The veteran is under the weather, so he'll join Joel Embiid (foot) on the sidelines for this contest. Georges Niang, who scored 11 points in 25 minutes versus the Clippers, may see an uptick in production from off the bench, giving him streaming […]

Joel Embiid Won't play On Sunday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot) won't play on Sunday against Detroit, marking his third consecutive absence. The big man is battling foot soreness, although it doesn't seem to be anything serious, so hopefully, he'll be back for Tuesday's rematch in Philly. In the meantime, Montrezl Harrell or Paul Reed may enter the starting lineup. […]

Keldon Johnson Sidelined Versus Boston

San Antonio Spurs forward Keldon Johnson (hamstring) won't play against the Celtics. He's battling hamstring tightness, so he'll join Jakob Poeltl (Achilles) and Devin Vassell (knee) on the shelf. As a result, Keita Bates-Diop, who's averaged 12.7 points and 4.8 rebounds in 10 starts this season, should see an uptick in fantasy production. Josh Richardson […]

Jakob Poeltl Out On Saturday Evening

San Antonio Spurs center Jakob Poeltl (Achilles) won't play on Saturday night against the Celtics. The 27-year-old is battling left Achilles bursitis, so Zach Collins will replace him in the starting lineup. Collins has averaged 9.2 points and 6.8 rebounds in six appearances with the first five this season, so he'll draw some interest in […]

Devin Booker To Be Re-Evaluated By End Of January

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (groin) will be re-evaluated in the last week of January, according to Duane Rankin of the Arizona Republic. The veteran has been bothered by a groin strain, which hasn't been ideal for a Suns team that has lost eight of their previous nine games. Even worse, Chris Paul (hip) is […]

Cameron Payne To Be Re-Evaluated In Two Weeks

Phoenix Suns guard Cameron Payne (foot) will be re-evaluated in two weeks, according to head coach Monty Williams. Payne sprained his right foot on Wednesday, which isn't ideal for a Suns team that has lost their last five games. Chris Paul (hip) is day-to-day, while Devin Booker (groin) remains out for the foreseeable future. As […]

Chris Paul Day-To-Day

Phoenix Suns guard Chris Paul (hip) is considered day-to-day, according to head coach Monty Williams. The veteran exited Friday's loss to Miami because of right hip soreness, finishing with only five points in 12 minutes. The Suns will also be without Cameron Payne (foot), who took over for Paul while he missed 14 games with […]

Tee Higgins Looking To Extend Scoring Streak On Sunday

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins has played well this season, despite battling different injuries. While the 23-year-old has amassed only 35 receiving yards or less in two of his last four games, he's found the end zone in each of his previous four appearances. Without question, having Ja'Marr Chase on the field has opened […]

Ja'Marr Chase Looks To Stay Hot In Week 18

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase has been on a roll. He's seen at least eight targets in all but one of his 11 appearances during the 2022-23 campaign. He's also scored eight touchdowns, doing so despite missing four games with a hip injury. Nevertheless, Chase is one of the best fantasy wideouts on the […]

Joe Mixon Aims To Turn Things Around Against Baltimore

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon hasn't looked the best since amassing five total scores against the Panthers back in early November. Since then, the former Sooner has been held out of the end zone. With the Bengals looking to close out the regular season with a win over the AFC North rival Ravens, Mixon […]

Joe Burrow Looks To Avenge Week 5 Loss To Ravens

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow will look to lead his team to an eighth straight win on Sunday against Baltimore. The clubs met back in Week 5, with the Ravens taking the win courtesy of a last-minute Justin Tucker field goal. Burrow didn't play his best in that one, finishing with 217 yards off 24-for-35 […]

Minkah Fitzpatrick Questionable Against Cleveland

Pittsburgh Steelers defensive back Minkah Fitzpatrick (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's AFC North showdown with the Cleveland Browns. The 26-year-old missed a few practices during the week but was available in a limited capacity on Friday. Fitzpatrick is sitting on a career-high six interceptions this season, so the team would certainly love to have him […]

Julio Jones Practices In Limited Capacity On Friday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Julio Jones (knee, illness) is questionable for Sunday's game versus the Falcons. The 33-year-old didn't practice on Wednesday and Thursday. However, he participated in a limited capacity in Friday's session. Jones hasn't been the most productive fantasy option throughout the 2022-23 campaign, amassing 24 receptions for 299 yards and two […]

Trevor Lawrence Questionable For Season Finale

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence (toe) is questionable for Saturday's meeting with Tennessee. The signal-caller has been bothered by the injury for nearly a month, although it hasn't kept him off the field. Considering the Jags are still in the playoff conversation, he'll likely be out there versus a Titans defense that's struggled against opposing […]

Calais Campbell Misses Practice On Friday

Baltimore Ravens defensive end Calais Campbell (knee) is questionable for the Week 18 AFC North meeting with the Bengals. The veteran almost played in the Sunday night matchup versus Pittsburgh in Week 17. However, he wasn't 100%, so he missed his second straight game. Campbell has 5.5 sacks this season, although he's still searching for […]

Teddy Bridgewater Questionable Against The Jets

Miami Dolphins quarterback Teddy Bridgewater (knee, finger) is questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup with the New York Jets. The veteran is banged up and wasn't expected to play. However, it appears he's moving in the right direction after practicing in a limited capacity during the week. Bridgewater got the start for the injured Tua Tagovailoa […]

Mecole Hardman Questionable For Week 18

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman (pelvis) is questionable for Saturday's contest versus the Las Vegas Raiders. The 24-year-old has 25 receptions for 297 yards and four touchdowns this season but hasn't played in over two months. The Chiefs won't have Skyy Moore (hand), so Hardman could get more involved during the NFC West […]

Phillip Dorsett Out Against Indianapolis

Houston Texans wide receiver Phillip Dorsett (hamstring) won't play on Sunday against the Colts. The veteran caught three of his season-high six targets in the loss to Jacksonville in Week 17 to finish with 14 yards. However, considering underwhelming performances like that have been the norm for Dorsett this season, it's unlikely many fantasy managers […]

Travis Homer Not Expected To Play Against The Rams

Seattle Seahawks running back Travis Homer (ankle) is doubtful ahead of the Week 18 showdown with the Rams. Fortunately, Kenneth Walker III (illness, ankle) practiced in full on Friday after sitting out the previous two sessions, so he'll probably be out there for the must-win matchup. With that said, DeeJay Dallas (ankle) was cleared to […]

Jakobi Meyers Uncertain For Season Finale

New England Patriots wide receiver Jakobi Meyers (shoulder) is officially questionable for the Week 18 meeting with Buffalo. The 26-year-old has had intermittent stints on the injury report for the same ailment throughout the season. However, he's played through it, so he'll likely be available for the pivotal must-win matchup versus the Bills. Meyers has […]

Jonnu Smith Questionable Versus Buffalo

New England Patriots tight end Jonnu Smith (concussion) is questionable for Sunday's critical AFC East matchup against Buffalo. The veteran missed the Pats' previous meeting with the Miami Dolphins. Fortunately, he practiced in a limited capacity on Thursday and Friday, so it appears he's trending in a favorable direction. Smith has had an uneventful year, […]

DeVante Parker Off The Injury Report

New England Patriots wide receiver DeVante Parker (concussion) is off the injury report and will play against the Bills on Sunday. The wideout has amassed 460 yards and one touchdown off 25 catches this season (12 games). However, he hasn't been available since Week 14 because of a concussion. With Jonnu Smith (concussion) and Jakobi […]

Daniel Gafford Puts Up Double-Double Versus Bucks

Washington Wizards center Daniel Gafford finished with 12 boards and 11 points during Tuesday's loss to Milwaukee. The 24-year-old averaged 11.6 points, 5.7 rebounds, and 1.7 blocks in his seven starts entering this one, so his double-double was an improvement. Gafford continues to produce, making him a viable fantasy option for managers in deeper formats.

Jrue Holiday Finishes With Six Points On Tuesday

Milwaukee Bucks guard Jrue Holiday returned from a three-game absence on Tuesday against the Washington Wizards. The 32-year-old missed time because of a non-COVID-illness, so he came off the bench for this one. He finished with only six points, going 2-for-8 from the field while amassing three turnovers in 19 minutes of work. Holiday should […]
