Marcus Smart Returns On Tuesday Against Wizards

Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart (ankle) returned to Tuesday's matchup against the Wizards. The veteran twisted his right ankle late in the second quarter and was helped to the bench by nearby teammates. However, he did check back in, but it is unknown whether or not he will be limited moving ahead. With the team […]

Marcus Smart Injures Ankle Against Washington

Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart (ankle) was injured during Wednesday's play-in matchup against Washington. The veteran appeared to twist his right ankle while guarding Bradley Beal late in the second quarter. He was helped to the bench by teammates, but his status moving ahead is up in the air.

Grayson Allen Questionable On Wednesday Night

Memphis Grizzlies guard Grayson Allen (abdominal) is questionable ahead of Wednesday's play-in matchup against the Spurs. Allen is currently dealing with left abdominal soreness, an ailment that caused him to miss the team's final seven regular-season contests. If the 25-year-old can't go, look for Desmond Bane and De'Anthony Melton to continue to get some extra […]

Anthony Davis Questionable For Play-In Matchup

Los Angeles Lakers forward Anthony Davis (shoulder) is questionable for Wednesday's matchup against the Warriors. The veteran has been a routine occupant on the league's injury report all season, so it's not surprising that he is listed for yet another ailment. Although his designation indicates there's a chance he won't play, he will likely be […]

J.D. Davis Heading To Syracuse For Rehab

New York Mets third baseman/outfielder J.D. Davis (finger) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Syracuse sometime next week. Although Davis had a chance at returning on Saturday, it appears now that he will need a bit longer to come back from a left finger injury suffered at the beginning of the month. The 28-year-old […]

Max Kepler Injured On Sunday

Minnesota Twins outfielder Max Kepler (hamstring) was injured during Sunday's matchup against Oakland. The 28-year-old will likely have more testing done sometime on Monday, with a trip to the 10-day injured list a realistic possibility. However, with Kepler batting just .198 this season throughout 96 at-bats, fantasy managers outside of dynasty formats shouldn't lose any […]

Corey Seager To Miss At Least Four Weeks

Los Angeles Dodgers shortstop Corey Seager (hand) is expected to miss at least four weeks. This revelation comes after skipper Dave Roberts wasn't able to give a timetable on the Seager's return. The 27-year-old is batting .265 this season, with 22 RBI, 20 runs, and four home runs. Fantasy managers should continue to keep him […]

Jake Odorizzi Starting Rehab On Monday

Houston Astros pitcher Jake Odorizzi (forearm) will start his rehab assignment at Triple-A Sugar Land on Monday. Odorizzi hasn't played since straining his forearm in April, but his absence hasn't done much to impact fantasy managers, primarily since the 31-year-old hasn't provided much on the fantasy end. Fantasy managers who don't have space can safely […]

Jose Urena Not Expected To Miss Time

Detroit Tigers starting pitcher Jose Urena (ankle) is expected to be available for his next turn through the rotation. The veteran is currently dealing with an ankle ailment, and it came after he lasted just 2 2/3 innings against the Cubs on Saturday. The 29-year-old has one win, four losses, and a 4.22 ERA throughout […]

Charlie Blackmon Makes Another Appearance On Sunday

Colorado Rockies outfielder Charlie Blackmon (groin) wasn't in the starting lineup on Sunday against the Reds. The veteran left Friday's game versus the Reds due to a groin strain. However, he appeared during both weekend contests against Cincinnati as a pinch hitter, so his presence is good news for fantasy managers hoping his injury wasn't […]

Mike Moustakas Absent On Sunday

Cincinnati Reds infielder Mike Moustakas (heel) wasn't in starting lineup on Sunday against Colorado. The veteran has been plagued by injuries lately, and his latest ailment has now kept him out of the lineup throughout the team's previous two games. Moustakas is batting .244 this season, the third-lowest mark of his career, while also compiling […]

Willians Astudillo Exits Early On Sunday

Minnesota Twins catcher Willians Astudillo (hand) was yanked early from Sunday's contest against the Athletics. Astudillo was hit by a pinch and is now considered day-to-day moving ahead. The 29-year-old is sporting a .316 average to go along with 11 RBI and three home runs this season. He is someone fantasy managers should keep an […]

Taylor Widener Scheduled For Rehab Start

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Taylor Widener (groin) is scheduled for a rehab start on Tuesday at Triple-A Reno. The 26-year-old hasn't been on the hill since April 22 due to a groin strain but appears to be trending in the right direction. The righty is currently in possession of a 2.82 ERA while compiling a […]

Asdrubal Cabrera Feeling Better

Arizona Diamondbacks infielder Asdrubal Cabrera reported that he is feeling better while remaining optimistic that he won't need surgery. The 35-year-old veteran is currently dealing with a strained right hamstring, an injury he suffered on Thursday against the Miami Marlins. Cabrera is batting .289 this season, an improvement from the 2020 campaign, while also racking […]

Nikola Vucevic Resting Against Milwaukee

Chicago Bulls center Nikola Vucevic (rest) will not play on Sunday against Milwaukee. No surprise here, as the team has nothing to gain by having the big man in the lineup for the final game of the season. With Daniel Theis (hip) out as well, Thaddeus Young and Lauri Markkanen could benefit the most.

Zach LaVine Out Against Milwaukee

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (knee) won't play on Sunday against Milwaukee. The 26-year-old is currently dealing with tendinitis in his right knee, and with the team having nothing left to play for, his season is officially over. Tomas Satoransky (ankle) is also out, so Coby White and Garrett Temple may consume most of the […]

Danilo Gallinari May Sit Against Houston

Atlanta Hawks forward Danilo Gallinari (back) may not play on Sunday against Houston. The veteran has a questionable tag as he deals with lower back soreness. With the Hawks already locked into a playoff berth, it wouldn't be a surprise if Gallinari isn't available for the season finale. With Bogdan Bogdanovic (hamstring) and Kevin Huerter […]

Clint Capela Questionable Against Houston

Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (Achilles) is questionable for Sunday's outing against the Rockets. With the postseason up ahead, the team may play it safe and hold him out for the season finale. However, even if Capela plays, it will likely be sparingly. With Onyeka Okongwu (shoulder) also out, Nathan Knight could see some extra […]

Kevin Huerter Questionable On Sunday

Atlanta Hawks guard Kevin Huerter (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's matchup against Houston. With the Hawks' playoff path already determined, it wouldn't be a surprise if the 21-year-old wasn't in the lineup for the final game of the regular season. Danilo Gallinari (back), Bogdan Bogdanovic (hamstring), Clint Capela (Achilles), and Trae Young (toe), among others, […]

Trae Young Probable Against Houston

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (toe) will likely play against the Rockets on Sunday. Young is currently dealing with soreness in his right big toe, and with the Knicks having already clinched the No. 4 spot in the Eastern Conference, he will likely see limited action if he plays. With other notables listed on the […]

Bogdan Bogdanovic Questionable For The Season Finale

Atlanta Hawks forward Bogdan Bogdanovic (hamstring) is questionable for Sunday's matchup against Houston. With the postseason around the corner, the team may be playing with a skeleton crew as Clint Capela (Achilles), Danilo Gallinari (back), Kevin Huerter (ankle), and Trae Young (toe), among others, are all listed on the afternoon injury report. As a result, […]

Kevin Love Out Against Brooklyn

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Kevin Love (calf) won't play against Brooklyn. The veteran will miss the final game of the regular season due to a right calf strain. With rumblings of a buyout or a potential trade during the upcoming offseason, Love has likely already played his final game in Cleveland. Look for Dean Wade, who […]

Darius Garland To Miss Final Game Of The Season

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Darius Garland (ankle) will not play on Sunday evening against the Brooklyn Nets. The 21-year-old is listed as out for injury management purposes; however, his absence is more likely related to the team looking toward next season. In his stead, Isaac Okoro, who had 17 points, six rebounds, and five assists against […]

Joe Harris Out On Sunday

Brooklyn Nets forward Joe Harris (glute) will miss Sunday's matchup against the Cavaliers. The veteran is currently dealing with a left gluteal strain and is in danger of missing a game or two into the postseason. With Harris out of the lineup for the season finale, Bruce Brown and Nicolas Claxton could see some extra […]

FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (5/16/21): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

On the final day of the regular season, there will undoubtedly be a ton of chaos. With some teams having nothing left to gain or lose on Sunday, expect more inactive players than usual. Since so many value options are available, fantasy managers may end up with more cap space, but that’s alright. In this […]

Jeimer Candelario Leaves Game Due To Injury

Detroit Tigers third baseman Jeimer Candelario (knee) left Saturday's matchup against the Cubs. The 27-year-old suffered a bruise after taking a Dan Winkler pitch to the left knee. Candelario's premature departure isn't very encouraging, primarily since he is currently in the midst of one of the most productive seasons of his career. While his injury […]

Jazz Chisholm Jr. Expected Back Next Week

Miami Marlins second baseman Jazz Chisholm Jr. (hamstring) will likely return during the team's current road trip. The 23-year-old hasn't played since the end of April due to a left hamstring strain but has been getting in some work recently at Triple-A Jacksonville. Chisholm is batting .290 to go along with 20 hits, 11 runs, […]

Cody Bellinger Heading In The Right Direction

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Cody Bellinger (leg) could be heading for a minor-league rehab assignment sometime next week. This is another step in the right direction and comes after it was reported during the week that Bellinger is making "very encouraging progress." The 25-year-old hasn't played since mid-April, but fantasy managers should obviously continue to […]

Zach McKinstry Nearing Rehab Assignment

Los Angeles Dodgers second baseman Zach McKinstry (oblique) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Oklahoma City on Sunday or Monday. This is certainly good news, primarily for the fantasy managers who have been without his fantasy production since April 20. The 26-year-old is currently batting nearly .300 to go along with 14 RBI, seven […]
