Toronto Raptors forward OG Anunoby will not play on Thursday against Atlanta. The 23-year-old will miss his third straight outing while forced into isolation due to COVID-19 contact tracing. With Pascal Siakam and Fred VanVleet also out for the same reason, look for Stanley Johnson and Terence Davis to continue to benefit, with both men logging […]

Pascal Siakam Still Not Cleared To Play

Toronto Raptors forward Pascal Siakam will remain out on Thursday against Atlanta. Siakam will miss his fourth straight contest after the team was plagued with multiple absences of coaches and players due to COVID-19 contact tracing. In his place, look for Chris Boucher to see a significant bump in production, although he will likely continue to […]

Fred VanVleet To Remain Out On Thursday Night

Toronto Raptors guard Fred VanVleet will remain out on Thursday against the Hawks. The 27-year-old will miss his third straight contest dating back to before the All-Star break due to the league's COVID-19 health and safety protocols. With Pascal Siakam and OG Anunoby both in the same boat as VanVleet, Kyle Lowry, Norman Powell and Chris Boucher […]

Cam Reddish In A Walking Boot

Atlanta Hawks forward Cam Reddish (foot) will remain out for Thursday's matchup against Toronto. The 21-year-old had a procedure performed to address the sore right Achilles that had been bothering him, which will keep him on the shelf for at least another week until he gets re-evaluated. In the meantime, look for Bogdan Bogdanovic to […]

Kris Dunn Could Return This Month

Atlanta Hawks guard Kris Dunn (knee, ankle) is out on Thursday evening against the Toronto Raptors. The veteran hasn't played yet this season while continuing to work his way back from multiple injuries. While there is a chance that Dunn could return before the end of the month, fantasy managers that still have him on […]

Delon Wright Questionable Against Charlotte

Detroit Pistons guard Delon Wright (groin) is questionable for Thursday's meeting with the Hornets. The 28-year-old missed his previous seven contests while dealing with a groin strain, an ailment that opened the door for Dennis Smith Jr. to receive some meaningful minutes. Wright is averaging 10.7 points, 4.9 assists, and 4.6 boards during the 2021 […]

Devonte’ Graham Likely To Play On Thursday

Charlotte Hornets guard Devonte' Graham (knee) will likely be available on Thursday night against Detroit. The 26-year-old missed his previous seven games before the All-Star break, which wasn't good news considering he also missed three contests at the beginning of February due to a groin issue. However, Graham appears to be good to go and […]

FanDuel MMA, UFC DFS Lineup Picks - Brunson vs. Holland (UFC Vegas 22)

The Pistons and forward Blake Griffin have mutually agreed to a contract buyout, making him a free agent. The veteran averaged a career-low 12.3 points throughout 20 games during the 2021 campaign.

Jerami Grant Out Again On Thursday Night

Detroit Pistons forward Jerami Grant (quadriceps) will sit on Thursday against the New York Knicks. The veteran has been dealing with soreness in his left quad, an injury that forced him to also miss Wednesday's outing against the short-handed Toronto Raptors. With his absence, look for Wayne Ellington and Svi Mykhailiuk to be the primary […]

Tyrese Haliburton Remains Out On Thursday

Sacramento Kings guard Tyrese Haliburton (calf) will sit out on Thursday against Portland. The rookie has missed his previous three games while dealing with soreness in his left calf, which will open the door for Cory Joseph to get some additional run. Joseph logged 34 minutes against the Lakers on Wednesday, finishing with 13 points […]

Buddy Hield Questionable Again

Sacramento Kings guard/forward Buddy Hield (ankle) has been classified as questionable for Thursday's outing against the Portland Trail Blazers. The 28-year-old had the same designation leading up to Wednesday's matchup against the Los Angeles Lakers but still managed to suit up, finishing with 29 points throughout 42 minutes of work. Though it would be surprising […]

Alex Caruso Out On Wednesday Evening

Los Angeles Lakers guard Alex Caruso (neck) won't play on Wednesday against the Kings. The 27-year-old is dealing with spasms after suffering the injury on Tuesday night against Phoenix. Caruso is averaging 5.8 points, 2.4 assists, and a steal through 19 minutes of action, so hopefully, he will be able to return upon completion of […]

Kyle Kuzma Starting Against Sacramento

Los Angeles Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma (foot) will start on Wednesday evening against Sacramento. The 25-year-old is currently dealing with a bruise on his right heel, but luckily, he will be able to suit up for a team without LeBron James (ankle) and Anthony Davis (Achilles).

Darius Garland Injured On Wednesday Night

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Darius Garland (groin) was injured during Wednesday's matchup against the Indiana Pacers.

Buddy Hield Starting On Wednesday

Sacramento Kings guard/forward Buddy Hield (ankle) will start on Wednesday against the Los Angeles Lakers.

The 28-year-old has logged heavy minutes throughout the year and gains […]

Kyle Kuzma Questionable Against Sacramento

Los Angeles Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma (foot) has been deemed questionable ahead of Wednesday's matchup against Sacramento. Kuzma is dealing with a bruise on his right heel, which puts him in danger of joining Anthony Davis (Achilles) and LeBron James (ankle) on the sidelines. If he does play, however, he will automatically gain attention from […]

Kelly Oubre Jr. Out On Wednesday

Golden State Warriors forward Kelly Oubre Jr. (wrist) won't play against the Trail Blazers on Wednesday evening. The 25-year-old is dealing with a sprained left wrist, an injury that puts him in danger of being held out until after the All-Star break. While Stephen Curry, Draymond Green, and Andrew Wiggins will likely benefit in terms […]

Doug McDermott May Not Suit Up On Wednesday

Indiana Pacers forward Doug McDermott (tooth) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's matchup against Cleveland. The veteran broke his tooth after taking an elbow to the face on Monday night, which could force him out of the lineup against Cleveland. With the team down a handful of players, Edmond Sumner could be in line for […]

Taurean Prince May Miss Another Game On Wednesday

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Taurean Prince (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's outing against the Pacers. Prince missed four-straight games a few weeks ago after spraining his ankle. He also missed Saturday's matchup against the 76ers due to personal issues, so this situation should be monitored, especially leading up to the trade deadline. Dean Wade has seen […]

Jerami Grant Questionable Against Toronto

Detroit Pistons forward Jerami Grant (quadriceps) is questionable ahead of Wednesday's matchup against Toronto. The veteran is dealing with a bruised left quad, an injury that puts him in jeopardy of sitting out at least the first part of the team's upcoming back-to-back. However, with the upcoming All-Star break, it wouldn't be surprising if the […]

Gordon Hayward Likely To Miss Another Game

Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (hand) is listed as doubtful for Monday's matchup against Portland. The veteran didn't suit up on Sunday against Sacramento, and with the All-Star break right around the corner, it wouldn't be a surprise if he didn't play on Wednesday against Minnesota. With the Hornets also without a few other key […]

Kyrie Irving Likely To Be Back On Monday

Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving (shoulder) may be back on Monday night against San Antonio. The veteran sat out during Saturday's loss to the Dallas Mavericks, seemingly to rest the surgically-repaired shoulder that caused him to sit out for most of the 2020 season. With Irving potentially back in the mix, Landry Shamet and Timothe […]

Danilo Gallinari Will Play Against Miami

Atlanta Hawks forward Danilo Gallinari (forearm) will play on Sunday against Miami. The veteran hasn't missed any time due to spasms in his right forearm and should benefit with Cam Reddish (Achilles) in line to miss his fourth-straight. Fantasy managers should keep Gallinari on the radar, especially in DFS contests, as the upside is certainly […]

Jimmy Butler Could Miss Sunday’s Contest

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (knee) may not suit up on Sunday night against the Hawks. Butler logged 34 minutes against the Utah Jazz on Friday night and wasn't listed on Saturday's injury report. However, the inflammation in his right knee is apparently bad enough to hold him out potentially. If Butler is absent, Bam […]

Elfrid Payton On Track To Miss Third-Straight Contest

New York Knicks guard Elfrid Payton (hamstring) is listed as doubtful against the Pistons. With a third-straight absence seemingly likely, the 27-year-old may find himself sitting past the All-Star break while he continues to work his way back from right hamstring soreness.
