San Antonio Spurs center Jakob Poeltl (quadriceps) won't return to Saturday's meeting with the Lakers after sustaining a right quad contusion. Jeremy Sochan was also ruled out because of the same injury, opening the door for Zach Collins to get involved. However, he was ejected for a flagrant 2 foul on Russell Westbrook. Nonetheless, if […]

Jeremy Sochan Won't Return On Saturday Night
San Antonio Spurs forward Jeremy Sochan (quadriceps) won't return to Saturday's game against the Lakers due to a quad contusion. The rookie was entering this one fresh off a 13-point, nine-rebound, and four-steal effort on Friday versus the Lakers in the first of back-to-back meetings. Hopefully, Sochan's injury isn't severe, although fantasy managers may not […]

The Cardinals added wide receivers Andre Baccellia and Pharoh Cooper to the active roster for the Week 12 meeting with the Los Angeles Chargers. Both men have seen limited action outside of practice squads throughout their careers, combining for 63 catches for 564 yards and a touchdown. Rondale Moore (groin) has already been ruled out […]

Zach Ertz Lands On Injured Reserve
Arizona Cardinals tight end Zach Ertz (knee) landed on the injured reserve list. The 32-year-old already wasn't expected to return this season after suffering a knee injury in the Week 10 win over the Rams. The move was likely a procedural one, as the Cards made several moves on Saturday, including activated Marquise Brown (ankle) […]

Marquise Brown Activated From Injured Reserve
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marquise Brown (ankle) was activated from the injured reserve list on Saturday after missing his previous five games because of an ankle injury. With Rondale Moore (groin) out for the Week 12 meeting with the Chargers and Zach Ertz (knee) done for the year, the Cardinals could use Hollywood's services. That […]

Justise Winslow Expected To Play On Sunday
Portland Trail Blazers forward Justise Winslow (ankle) is expected to play on Sunday against Brooklyn. The Duke product missed his last two games while tending to a left ankle sprain. Winslow has averaged only 6.9 points, 4.8 rebounds, 3.6 assists, and 1.1 steals in 2022-23. Although his presence proves useful for Portland's depth, he isn't […]

Mike Conley Will Miss Another One On Saturday
Utah Jazz guard Mike Conley (left popliteus strain) will miss his fourth straight game on Saturday against Phoenix. As a result, Collin Sexton should continue to fill the void in the lineup. The former Cavalier has averaged 14.8 points and 6.0 assists in four starts this season. While Sexton's shooting percentages need to improve, he's […]

Dalano Banton Remains Out Versus Dallas
Toronto Raptors guard Dalano Banton (ankle) remains out ahead of Saturday's matchup against Dallas. The 23-year-old continues to deal with a sprained left ankle, an injury that will now cost him his third consecutive game. That said, Fred VanVleet (illness) will play versus the Mavs after sitting out Wednesday's meeting with Brooklyn, so Banton may […]

Fred VanVleet Returning Against Mavs
Toronto Raptors guard Fred VanVleet (illness) is available for Saturday's matchup against the Dallas Mavericks. He missed the team's previous game versus the Nets with a non-COVID-related illness, allowing Malachi Flynn to get the start. With Pascal Siakam (adductor) and Scottie Barnes (knee) still sidelined, VanVleet, OG Anunoby, and Gary Trent Jr. could be the […]

Yuta Watanabe Won't Play On Sunday
Brooklyn Nets guard Yuta Watanabe (hamstring) won't play on Sunday against Portland. The 28-year-old has missed the last two games because of a right hamstring strain, although he may be nearing a return. Watanabe has played well this season, averaging a career-high 8.1 points and shooting 57.1% from deep, so the Nets are certainly missing […]

Chris Paul Out Again On Saturday Evening
Phoenix Suns guard Chris Paul (heel) is out for Saturday's contest against Utah, marking his nine-consecutive absence due to right heel soreness. Without a definitive return date for Paul, Cameron Payne should continue to replace him. The 28-year-old has averaged 18.5 points, 6.9 assists, and 1.0 steals while shooting an efficient 42.9% from deep in […]

Alperen Sengun Upgraded For Meeting With OKC
Houston Rockets center Alperen Sengun (groin) is probable for Saturday's meeting with Oklahoma City. The 20-year-old didn't play on Friday night versus Atlanta because of a groin issue, allowing Bruno Fernando to get the start and finish with seven points, three rebounds, and one block. The Rockets will certainly be happy to get Sengun back […]

Bruno Fernando Out On Saturday
Houston Rockets center Bruno Fernando (knee) is out on Saturday versus OKC for maintenance purposes. The 24-year-old played on Friday night against Atlanta for the first time in over a month after being sidelined with a knee injury. Alperen Sengun (groin) didn't suit up for that one, so Fernando got the start and finished with […]

Josh Richardson Remains Out Versus The Lakers
San Antonio Spurs guard Josh Richardson (ankle) won't play on Saturday versus the Lakers, marking his third-straight absence because of a sprained ankle. Keita Bates-Diop (ankle) is also out, so Romeo Langford, Zach Collins, and Malaki Branham should see the most work from off the bench. However, none of the three are reliable fantasy producers.

Keita Bates-Diop Out On Saturday Night
San Antonio Spurs forward Keita Bates-Diop (ankle) won't suit up on Saturday against the Lakers. The 26-year-old seemingly sprained his left ankle on Friday in the first of back-to-back meetings with Los Angeles, ending his night after only three minutes on the court. Bates-Diop has averaged only 7.4 points, although he's doubled that in his […]

Anthony Davis Questionable Versus San Antonio
Los Angeles Lakers forward/center Anthony Davis (calf) is questionable for Saturday's rematch against the Spurs. With LeBron James (adductor) returning on Friday following a five-game layoff, it's possible Davis gets the night off to finally get some rest. That said, if A.D. isn't available, Wenyen Gabriel may replace him in the lineup. Gabriel has averaged […]

LeBron James Probable For Rematch With Spurs
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (adductor) is expected to play on Saturday for the second of consecutive meetings with the Spurs. The multi-time MVP returned on Friday night following a five-game absence. He logged 33 minutes in that one, finishing with 21 points, eight rebounds, three steals, and a block. James did have nine […]

Bears Could Hold Justin Fields Out To Avoid Long-Term Damage
Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields (shoulder) remains questionable for Sunday's meeting with the Jets. The signal-caller has a separated shoulder but is willing to play through pain moving ahead. However, with Chicago unlikely to make the postseason, the team could keep him out if it means avoiding "long-term damage," according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. The […]

David Bakhtiari Questionable For Week 12
Green Bay Packers offensive tackle David Bakhtiari (knee) remains questionable for the Week 12 meeting with the Philadelphia Eagles. The veteran dealt with the same issue heading into the Week 11 matchup against Tennessee but managed to suit up. He also practiced in full on Friday, so it would be surprising if he wasn't available […]

Odell Beckham Jr. Not Expected To Play Until Late December
Free-agent wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (knee) isn't expected to play before the end of December, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. The wideout has several visits with teams on the horizon, specifically with the Giants, Bills, and Cowboys. While many fantasy managers have already stashed Beckham on their roster, he realistically may not be […]

Ja'Marr Chase Officially Out On Sunday
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase (hip, shoulder) won't play on Sunday against the Titans. The wideout had been riding a questionable tag heading into Week 12 after missing time because of a hairline fracture in his hip and a torn labrum. However, Chase isn't ready to return, although the team remains hopeful he will […]

Deebo Samuel Dealing With "Different" Hamstring Issue
San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Deebo Samuel (hamstring) remains questionable ahead of Sunday's meeting with the Saints. The wideout didn't play in the Week 8 win over the Rams because of a hamstring injury, leading most to assume he's still dealing with the lingering effects. However, head coach Kyle Shanahan provided an update, reporting that […]

Anthony Davis Posts Double-Double On Friday
Los Angeles Lakers forward/center Anthony Davis finished with a game-high 25 points during the win over the Spurs. LeBron James (groin) returned from a five-game absence. However, Davis wasn't messing around on Friday, as he went 10-for-13 from the field while adding 15 rebounds, three blocks, and a steal. The 29-year-old was once again listed […]

LeBron James Logs 33 Minutes In Return
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (groin) logged 33 minutes in Friday's win over San Antonio. James missed his previous five games with a strained groin. However, he looked decent in his return, finishing the night with 21 points off 8-for-17 shooting from the field while adding eight boards, five assists, three steals, and a […]

Bojan Bogdanovic Injures Right Knee On Friday
Detroit Pistons forward Bojan Bogdanovic (knee) was injured late in the loss to Phoenix. Torrey Craig stepped on Bogdanovic's foot in the fourth quarter, causing the veteran to twist his knee. He hit the floor in obvious pain and walked off the court with a noticeable limp. Fortunately, he reported postgame that the injury wasn't […]

Jaden Ivey Dealing With Knee Soreness
Detroit Pistons guard Jaden Ivey (knee) didn't play in Friday's loss to the Suns. The rookie is currently plagued by right knee soreness, so his status for Sunday's showdown against Cleveland is up in the air. With Cade Cunningham (shin) out for the foreseeable future, the Pistons may be shorthanded versus the Cavs if Ivey […]

Jarrett Allen Exited Friday's Game Against Milwaukee
Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen (hip) exited Friday's game against Milwaukee with a right hip injury. He didn't return. The 24-year-old has already missed time this year due to injury, and it's likely he may sit out some more moving ahead because of his latest ailment. If that's the case, Evan Mobley will likely slide […]

Gordon Hayward Out Indefinitely
Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (shoulder) is out indefinitely due to a fracture in his left shoulder. He missed Friday's game against Minnesota with what was believed to be a contusion. However, the news is much worse, so Hayward will have further examinations to determine his options. The 32-year-old has averaged 16.3 points, 4.4 assists, […]

Pascal Siakam Moving Closer Toward Returning
Toronto Raptors forward/center Pascal Siakam (adductor) is cleared to resume contact and practiced in full on Friday. However, he'll remain out for Saturday's game against Dallas. The 28-year-old has had a fantastic season, averaging a career-high 24.8 points, 9.3 rebounds, and 7.7 assists in nine games. Although it may take Siakam a game or two […]
