Calvin Pickard Faces Wild Wednesday

Edmonton Oilers goaltender Calvin Pickard will be in the crease for Wednesday's matchup against Minnesota.

Pickard has logged six wins in his past seven starts, bringing his record for the campaign to […]

Mattias Samuelsson Returns To Sabres Lineup

Buffalo Sabres defenseman Mattias Samuelsson (illness) will return to the lineup on Wednesday against Carolina. Samuelsson has missed two games due to an illness and was initially considered a game-time decision for Wednesday's matchup. He will replace Jacob Bryson in the lineup. Samuelsson is a stay-at-home defenseman who doesn't offer much on the offensive end. […]

Brock Faber Still Out Wednesday

Minnesota Wild defenseman Brock Faber (upper body) has been ruled out for a fourth consecutive contest as the team gets ready to host Edmonton on Wednesday. He participated in the morning skate, which is a good sign that Faber should be good to go soon. Following Wednesday night, the Wild return to action on Saturday […]

Kirill Kaprizov To Miss 10th Consecutive Game

Minnesota Wild left wing Kirill Kaprizov (lower body) will miss a 10th consecutive game on Wednesday against Edmonton. The prolific winger participated in the morning skate, but only in a limited capacity, and is not yet ready to return from a lower-body injury. Kaprizov gets his next chance for a comeback on Saturday against Nashville. […]

Dustin Tokarski Gets The Nod For Wednesday's Action

Carolina Hurricanes goaltender Dustin Tokarski will start Wednesday's tilt against Buffalo. The veteran is getting the nod for the sixth time this campaign and looks to record a fourth consecutive win. Tokarski has been solid for Carolina whenever called upon, going 4-1-0 while allowing 2.00 goals, with a .907 save percentage and one shutout. He […]

Mattias Ekholm A Game-Time Decision Wednesday

Edmonton Oilers defenseman Mattias Ekholm (undisclosed) has been labeled as a game-time decision for Wednesday's matchup against Minnesota. He was absent from the morning skate and might sit out his first game of the season. Ekholm has gone quiet offensively in recent times, with eight scoreless outings in 10 games, but it's been a good […]

Tristan Jarry Placed On Waivers

Pittsburgh Penguins goaltender Tristan Jarry was placed on waivers Wednesday. The move came after Jarry gave up two third-period goals inside a minute in Tuesday's 4-2 defeat to Seattle, marking another low point in a tough campaign. The 29-year-old has won only eight of 22 appearances, allowing 3.31 goals with a .886 save percentage. Jarry […]

Collin Sexton Resting On Wednesday

Utah Jazz guard Collin Sexton (rest) will miss his first game of the season on Wednesday versus Charlotte. The Jazz have decided to rest their second-highest scorer. The 26-year-old joins a lengthy list of absentees, which includes Lauri Markkanen (back), John Collins (hip), and Jordan Clarkson (foot). This means Utah will not have four of […]

Keyonte George Might Return To Action On Wednesday

Utah Jazz guard Keyonte George (heel) looks to be on the cusp of returning to the lineup, as he has picked up a questionable tag ahead of Wednesday's game against Charlotte. He has sat out five contests in a row, and George was previously ruled out immediately due to inflammation in his left heel. The […]

John Collins Remains Sidelined Wednesday

Utah Jazz forward/center John Collins (hip) is not ready to rejoin the action on Wednesday against Charlotte. He will skip a sixth straight game for hip injury management purposes. Kyle Filipowski and Micah Potter receive additional work with Collins out. Potter started on Sunday against Brooklyn, but Filipowski was the better performer, which has been […]

Lauri Markkanen Out On Wednesday

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (back) will miss a second consecutive game on Wednesday against Charlotte. The 2023 All-Star has joined several teammates on the shelf with lower back spasms. Markkanen's absence gives Cody Williams and Brice Sensabaugh additional playing time. Williams has struggled to make use of the extra opportunities, but Sensabaugh has put […]

Jordan Clarkson Remains Out Wednesday

Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson (foot) will not rejoin the lineup for Wednesday's clash against Charlotte. The veteran scorer was recently diagnosed with a torn left plantar fascia, and the injury will keep him sidelined for a sixth consecutive game. On Jan. 6, it was announced that Clarkson was scheduled to be re-evaluated in two […]

Dorian Finney-Smith Considered Doubtful For Wednesday's Action

Los Angeles Lakers forward Dorian Finney-Smith (personal) will likely skip Wednesday's matchup against Miami, as the team lists him as doubtful for the game. He is tending to a personal matter and might miss his first contest since becoming a Laker. After arriving from Brooklyn, Finney-Smith has notched 6.8 points and 3.2 assists in 23.7 […]

Anthony Davis Probable To Face Heat

Los Angeles Lakers forward/center Anthony Davis (foot) is listed as probable for Wednesday's tilt against Miami. He's been battling left plantar fasciitis throughout the campaign and continues to deal with the foot issue, but Davis has been surprisingly durable in 2024-25. The 31-year-old star has skipped only two games, averaging 25.9 points, 11.9 rebounds, 3.5 […]

LeBron James Probable Wednesday

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (foot) is probable for Wednesday's matchup against Miami. James remains on the injury report with left foot injury management but is fully expected to play. The Lakers have had a couple of games postponed due to the California wildfires, meaning James has had some additional rest time lately. He […]

Lonzo Ball To Be Rested On Wednesday

Chicago Bulls point guard Lonzo Ball is scheduled to be rested on Wednesday versus Atlanta. The team begins a back-to-back set on Tuesday against New Orleans, and Ball hasn't been cleared to play on consecutive nights. Ball tied a season-high with 26 minutes in the last game against Sacramento, so he's starting to get close […]

Coby White Back For Bulls Tuesday

Chicago Bulls guard Coby White (neck) will hop back into the lineup on Tuesday against New Orleans. He's available following a one-game absence after recovering from a neck strain. White settled for 15 points in his last outing against Washington, but he has been sharp offensively in recent weeks. The 24-year-old has posted 20-plus points […]

Gary Trent Jr. Out On Tuesday

Milwaukee Bucks guard/forward Gary Trent Jr. (hip) has been ruled out for Tuesday's contest against Sacramento. He will sit out a second consecutive game due to a hip strain. Trent Jr. was initially regarded as questionable for the matchup, so it's possible he might be ready to return on Wednesday versus Orlando. AJ Green, Ryan […]

Grayson Allen Will Play On Tuesday

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Grayson Allen (knee) is available for Tuesday's clash against Atlanta. He carried a small question mark when the team initially listed Allen as probable for the game. The 29-year-old sharpshooter was limited to only 13 minutes in the previous game due to a knee issue. Fantasy managers could see significant production from […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Officially Available Tuesday

Milwaukee Bucks forward/center Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) will play in Tuesday's matchup against Sacramento. Antetokounmpo continues to be accompanied by a probable tag, but he has been upgraded to available. The former MVP has recorded 10 straight double-doubles, with the run including a couple of triple-doubles. However, his scoring output has dropped to 26.5 points this […]

De'Andre Hunter A Late Scratch On Tuesday

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (foot) will not play against Phoenix on Tuesday. He is a late scratch for the contest, as the team had not listed him on the injury report ahead of the game. Hunter has experienced some health issues, so the team may want to play it extra safe with him as […]

Ty Jerome Misses Second Straight Game

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Ty Jerome (illness) is not ready to return to the lineup on Tuesday against Indiana. He has been downgraded from doubtful to out. Jerome's next chance to return will come on Thursday against his former team, the Oklahoma City Thunder. With Jerome unavailable, around 18 minutes are available to be shared among […]

Paul George Ruled Out For Tuesday

Philadelphia 76ers forward Paul George (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against Oklahoma City. The 76ers will be down to bare bones for the clash, with Kelly Oubre Jr. being the only available regular starter. George was initially regarded as probable, so he doesn't appear to be dealing with a serious injury. He […]

Caleb Martin Will Not Play On Tuesday

Philadelphia 76ers forward Caleb Martin (groin) has been ruled out for Tuesday's meeting with Oklahoma City. He will miss a second straight game due to a sore right groin. Martin's absence should result in another start for Eric Gordon. The veteran sniper has averaged 10.3 points and 2.3 rebounds across three prior starts this season. […]

Tyrese Maxey Out On Tuesday

Philadelphia 76ers point guard Tyrese Maxey (hand) has been ruled out for Tuesday's contest against Oklahoma City. After being a late addition to the injury report, Maxey failed to shake off a hand sprain before the action. With no Kyle Lowry (hip) either for the 76ers, Reggie Jackson should get as many minutes as he […]

Bogdan Bogdanovic Active On Tuesday

Atlanta Hawks guard/forward Bogdan Bogdanovic (knee) will suit up for Tuesday's contest against Phoenix. He was initially iffy for the game after the team listed him as questionable on the injury report. Bogdanovic's last appearance was also against the Suns, and he had one of his best performances of the season, scoring 17 points with […]

Trae Young Cleared To Play Tuesday

Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young (illness) will play against Phoenix on Tuesday. He has been upgraded from questionable to available. This should be a big boost for the Hawks, who remain without Jalen Johnson (shoulder). Young is a walking double-double and recently had his third 20-20 game of the season. However, the Suns found […]

Troy Terry Returns To Action Tuesday

Anaheim Ducks right wing Troy Terry (personal) will be back in the lineup for Tuesday's visit to Washington. He has missed four games following the birth of his son on Jan. 7. The Ducks will be delighted to have Terry back, as the 27-year-old leads the team in all the major offensive categories. He has […]

John Marino Set For Utah Debut On Tuesday

Utah Hockey Club defenseman John Marino (back) has been activated from Injured Reserve and appears poised to make his team debut on Tuesday against Montreal. Utah moved Dylan Guenther (lower body) to Injured Reserve in a corresponding move. Marino, an offseason trade acquisition from New Jersey, has yet to play in 2024-25 due to back […]

Jack Eichel Expected To Return To Vegas Lineup Tuesday

Vegas Golden Knights center Jack Eichel (illness) is expected to rejoin the lineup on Tuesday against Nashville. The American star missed his first game of the season on Sunday versus Minnesota after feeling under the weather. William Karlsson operated as the first-line center in his absence. Eichel is on track for his first 100-point campaign, […]
