John Wall Will Sit First Game Of Back-To-Back

Houston Rockets point guard John Wall (rest) will not play Friday against the Los Angeles Clippers. Wall will likely not play in both ends of a back-to-back for the remainder of the season so this is to be expected. Wall went off Wednesday after a multi-game absence and put up 31 points and seven assists […]

Brandon Ingram And Kira Lewis Jr. Questionable Again

New Orleans Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram (foot) and guard Kira Lewis Jr. (calf) are both questionable to play Friday against the Philadelphia 76ers. Both Ingram and Lewis have been out for the past week, give or take, and have been closer to game-time decisions for most of that time. Ingram seems closer to returning of […]

Lonzo Ball Added To Friday's Injury Report

New Orleans Pelicans guard Lonzo Ball (hip) now questionable to play Friday against the Philadelphia 76ers. Ball returned from a hip flexor injury and has played well over the past three games including a back-to-back set, but now is back on the injury report ahead of Friday. It is unclear what kind of setback Ball […]

John Wall Will Be Limited Against Dallas

Houston Rockets point guard John Wall (knee) will play limited minutes in his return Wednesday against the Dallas Mavericks. The coaching staff did not specify the minutes limit, but it makes sense given Wall's multi-game absence and plethora of injuries he has dealt with this year. Wall holds significant shut down risk and can severely […]

Maxi Kleber Sitting Against Houston

Dallas Mavericks forward/center Maxi Kleber (leg) is out Wednesday against the Houston Rockets. Kleber is dealing with lower leg soreness so he'll get the night off in the first leg of a back-to-back set. When Kleber sat out the last back-to-back set, Nicolo Melli got the spot start and put up 10 points and eight […]

Kristaps Porzingis Good To Go Wednesday

Dallas Mavericks forward/center Kristaps Porzingis (wrist) will play Wednesday against the Houston Rockets. Porzingis missed two games with a wrist injury, but the team expected him to return Wednesday. Porzingis will take value away from Nicolo Melli and Boban Marjanovic and take away some usage from the remaining starters. Melli may still have streaming value […]

Bradley Beal And Robin Lopez Good To Go Wednesday

Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal (hip) and center Robin Lopez (quad) will play Wednesday against the Orlando Magic. Beal will make his return after a five-game absence due to a hip injury. Beal's return should push Raul Neto back to the bench and take some usage away from Russell Westbrook. Lopez left Monday's game with […]

Danilo Gallinari Will Sit Against Memphis

Atlanta Hawks forward Danilo Gallinari (ankle) will not play Wednesday against the Memphis Grizzlies. Gallinari is dealing with ankle soreness and was questionable before being ruled out. Gallinari missed a bunch of games in the beginning of the season due to an ankle injury so the Hawks are likely being cautious on the second leg […]

Clint Capela Ruled Out For Wednesday

Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (Achilles) will not play Wednesday against the Memphis Grizzlies. Capela was questionable with Achilles soreness which has been a reoccurring issue this season for the big man. Onyeka Okongwu will likely get the spot start on Wednesday and be tasked with containing Jonas Valanciunas. Okongwu has played well in limited […]

Tristan Thompson To Play In "Small Bursts" Wednesday

Boston Celtics forward/center Tristan Thompson will play in "short bursts" on Wednesday against the New York Knicks. Thompson is returning to play after sitting since March 14, and head coach Brad Stevens does not want to push the veteran big man in his return. Thompson is nothing more than a rebounding streamer at this point with […]

Brandon Ingram, Kira Lewis Jr. Out Against Nets

New Orleans Pelicans guard Kira Lewis Jr. (calf) and forward Brandon Ingram (foot) are both out Wednesday against the Brooklyn Nets. Ingram appears closer to making a return, but will miss his fifth-straight game while Lewis will miss his second straight. The Pelicans have lost three of the past four games without Ingram and are […]

Malcolm Brogdon To Miss Fourth Straight Game

Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon (hip) will miss his fourth straight game Wednesday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Brogdon is still dealing with a hip injury and does not have a concrete timetable to return, but it should be sooner rather than later. Brogdon's absence has opened the door for Edmond Sumner to start, but T.J. […]

Myles Turner And Domantas Sabonis Out Against T-Wolves

Indiana Pacers big men Myles Turner (ankle) and Domantas Sabonis (ankle) will both sit Wednesday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Sabonis will miss his second straight game with an ankle sprain and has not practiced since suffering the injury. Turner also suffered an ankle sprain Tuesday night and will miss his first game with the ailment. […]

Jeremy Lamb Available To Play Wednesday

Indiana Pacers guard/forward Jeremy Lamb (toe) will play Wednesday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Lamb was questionable on the second leg of a back-to-back, but appears good to go after testing his toe out before tip-off. Lamb is coming off a 15-points and career-high six steals performance in 25 minutes on Tuesday and should get around […]

Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers - Week 15

It's been a couple weeks since the NBA trade deadline and we are finally seeing the rotations solidify with all the new faces in their new places. With most fantasy league trade deadlines come and gone, managers will need to rely on the waiver wire to make that last minute push for the playoffs, if […]

Rajon Rondo Coming Off The Bench In Debut

Los Angeles Clippers point guard Rajon Rondo (adductor) will come off the bench and have a minutes restriction on Sunday against the Los Angeles Lakers. This makes sense given Rondo has been out with a strained adductor and could easily reaggravate the injury. The Clippers have spoke highly about Rondo given his basketball I.Q. and […]

Coby White Out Due To League Protocols

Chicago Bulls guard Coby White (health and safety protocols) will not play Sunday against the Brooklyn Nets. White was listed as probable with his sore neck, but has entered the league's health and safety protocols and will not play. It is unclear how long White will be in the protocols as there are no indication […]

Joel Embiid Will Sit Sunday After Returning From Injury

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee, rest) will not play Sunday against the Memphis Grizzlies. Embiid returned to the court Saturday after a lengthy absence due to a knee injury and the Sixers are playing it safe by giving him Sunday off. While Embiid was out, Mike Scott has started as a small-ball five while […]

Danilo Gallinari And Trae Young Good To Go Sunday

Atlanta Hawks forward Danilo Gallinari (Achilles) and guard Trae Young (knee) will both play Sunday against the Golden State Warriors. Both players missed their last game, but it was a maintenance day on the second half of a back-to-back. Gallinari's return should limit the already low fantasy value of Tony Snell and Solomon Hill. Young's […]

Andre Drummond Out Again On Easter

Los Angeles Lakers center Andre Drummond (toe) will miss his second straight game Sunday against the Los Angeles Clippers. Drummond is dealing with a toe contusion and torn toenail after leaving his Laker debut last week, but appears to be making strides toward an eventual return. Drummond's absence will likely result in Marc Gasol starting […]

Jeremy Lamb And Domantas Sabonis Game-Time Decisions Friday

Indiana Pacers guard/forward Jeremy Lamb (toe) and forward/center Domantas Sabonis (thigh) are both game-time decisions against the Charlotte Hornets Friday. Lamb missed the last game with the injury, but has progressed to 1-on-1 in practice so he may be on the side of doubtful. Sabonis picked up a thigh injury on Wednesday, but was able […]

Khem Birch May Sit On Saturday

Orlando Magic forward/center Khem Birch (illness) is questionable Saturday against the Utah Jazz. Birch only lasted five minutes on Thursday before leaving with a non-COVID illness. It is unclear what symptoms he is experiencing, but they were enough for Birch to leave the game. Wendell Carter Jr. took over and produced 21 points and 11 […]

Ricky Rubio May Miss Friday

Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Ricky Rubio (back) is now questionable to play against the Memphis Grizzlies Friday. Rubio is being listed with back spasms which he likely experienced during his pregame routine. If Rubio ends up being forced to sit, the Timberwolves will likely turn to Jordan McLaughlin as the starter. Jaylen Nowell and Josh […]

John Wall Will Sit Again Against Boston

Houston Rockets point guard John Wall (knee) has been ruled out after being questionable to play Friday against the Boston Celtics. Wall has been dealing with knee soreness and there is a very real possibility he opts for surgery to end his season. For now, Wall will likely be considered questionable to play in the […]

Larry Nance Jr. And Jarrett Allen Out Saturday

Cleveland Cavaliers centers Larry Nance Jr. (illness) and Jarrett Allen (concussion) have both been ruled out Saturday against the Miami Heat. Both centers do not have timetables for return as they deal with their respective ailments. Dean Wade and Kevin Love should continue to start while Isaiah Hartenstein gets good minutes off the bench. Love […]

Joel Embiid Officially Questionable Saturday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) is questionable to play Saturday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. This weekend was the targeted return date for Embiid who has been out the past few weeks with a bone bruise in his knee. The Sixers play on both Saturday and Sunday so the hope is Embiid plays in at […]

Trae Young, Danilo Gallinari Resting Friday

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (knee) and forward Danilo Gallinari (ankle) are both out Friday against the New Orleans Pelicans. The Hawks are on the second half of a back-to-back and head coach Nate McMillan said he was going to sit some players due to rest. Young, however, did say his knee buckled twice on […]

RJ Barrett May Sit Against Mavericks

New York Knicks guard/forward RJ Barrett (ankle) is questionable to play against the Dallas Mavericks on Friday. Barrett is being listed with a sprained ankle which can vary in terms of severity. Regardless, it is something to monitor and could force Barrett to miss his first game of the season. If Barrett sits, Alec Burks, […]

Ty Jerome Now Questionable To Play Friday

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Ty Jerome (ankle) has been upgraded to questionable on Friday against the Phoenix Suns. Jerome was originally listed as "out" on the injury report, but there is now a chance he plays given the questionable tag. Jerome, if cleared, would resume his bench role, backing up guard Theo Maledon. Jerome has […]

Stephen Curry Ruled Out Friday Against Raptors

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (tailbone) ruled out Friday against the Toronto Raptors. Curry took another fall on his tailbone on Thursday against the Miami Heat and was a little limited afterwards. The Warriors are most likely being cautious with their star, but it is a little concerning if he reinjured his tailbone which […]
