On Tuesday, he will be welcomed back in the lineup, with Oilers head coach Kris Knoblauch also planning to do some line shuffling. Skinner, […]

Simon Holmstrom Considered Day-To-Day

New York Islanders right wing Simon Holmstrom (upper body) is considered day-to-day. The 23-year-old has been ever-present for the Islanders this season but had to exit the lineup on Tuesday against Toronto because of an upper-body injury. Holmstrom has quietly enjoyed a good campaign, sitting fourth on the team in scoring. He has posted nine […]

Kirill Kaprizov Will Remain Out On Tuesday

Minnesota Wild left wing Kirill Kaprizov (lower body) will remain on the shelf for Tuesday's matchup against Nashville. He will sit out a third consecutive contest.

Kris Letang Out On Tuesday, Considered Day-To-Day

Pittsburgh Penguins defenseman Kris Letang (lower body) will not play on Tuesday against Detroit and is considered day-to-day. Letang will be absent for a second consecutive game.

Phoenix Suns forward Royce O'Neale (ankle) will not be available for Tuesday's game against Memphis.

Grayson Allen Considered Probable Tuesday

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Grayson Allen (concussion) is expected to return to the lineup on Tuesday versus Memphis.

Jake LaRavia Unavailable Versus Phoenix

Memphis Grizzlies forward Jake LaRavia (ankle) will not play against Phoenix on Tuesday. He injured his right ankle against Oklahoma City on Sunday and will have to sit out at least one game. LaRavia's first opportunity to return will come on Friday against Sacramento. His absence opens up additional playing time for Luke Kennard and […]

Gabe Vincent Iffy For Tuesday's Action

Los Angeles Lakers guard Gabe Vincent (oblique) is questionable to face Cleveland on Tuesday. He suffered an oblique strain on Saturday against Sacramento, logging only seven minutes of action. If Vincent can't play on Tuesday, Shake Milton should get a good opportunity to impress in his team debut. He and Dorian Finney-Smith are available for […]

Jaxson Hayes Off The Injury Report

Los Angeles Lakers forward/center Jaxson Hayes (ankle) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Tuesday's meeting with Cleveland. He's been out since Nov. 26 with an ankle injury.

Anthony Davis Listed As Questionable For Tuesday

Los Angeles Lakers forward/center Anthony Davis (ankle) remains on the injury report ahead of Tuesday's tilt against Cleveland. He continues to nurse an ankle injury that Davis sustained on Christmas Day against Golden State.

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (illness) is considered questionable for Tuesday's matchup against Cleveland. James, who celebrated his 40th birthday on Monday, continues to battle an illness.

Moses Moody Active Versus Cavaliers

Golden State Warriors guard/forward Moses Moody (knee) will be active against Cleveland on Monday. He returns from a one-game absence and might find himself in a significant role, as Brandin Podziemski (calf) and Gary Payton II (abdominal) will sit out the action. Moody produced a good two-way performance in his last appearance, finishing Friday's 102-92 […]

Kyle Lowry Sits Out Monday's Game

Philadelphia 76ers point guard Kyle Lowry will not play against Portland on Monday. The veteran is currently carrying a sore right hip and will miss the action after initially being listed as questionable for the game. Reggie Jackson will likely receive an uptick in minutes on Monday, especially with Eric Gordon (mouth) also out. However, […]

Joel Embiid Upgraded To Available

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot, face) is good to go for Monday's matchup against Portland. He's shaken off a questionable tag ahead of tip-off. The former MVP is coming off a 32-point effort across 35 minutes in a favorable matchup against Utah, and he should also feast against the Trail Blazers. Only four teams […]

Dereck Lively II Remains Sidelined Monday

Dallas Mavericks center Dereck Lively II (hip) will continue to sit against the Kings on Monday. Dallas has downgraded Lively II from questionable to out, resulting in the talented big man's third consecutive absence. With the Mavericks thin on the frontcourt, Maxi Kleber started alongside Daniel Gafford on Saturday against Portland. Kleber failed to score […]

Klay Thompson Misses Monday's Action With An Illness

Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Klay Thompson (illness) will not suit up for Monday's game against Sacramento. He's caught an illness bug, leaving the Mavericks without four regular starters for the contest. Spencer Dinwiddie, Quentin Grimes, and Jaden Hardy should all benefit from the long list of absentees. The former two have already previously provided good fantasy […]

Toumani Camara Returns To Action Monday

Portland Trail Blazers forward Toumani Camara (foot) will be in the lineup on Monday against Philadelphia. The 24-year-old missed Saturday's contest against Dallas due to a foot problem, with Deni Avdija filling in for him in the starting lineup. The two will share the court as starters on Monday, as Avdija is expected to replace […]

Robert Williams III Returns From Three-Game Absence

Portland Trail Blazers center Robert Williams III (ankle) will suit up for Monday's meeting with Philadelphia. He's available again after sitting out three games with an ankle sprain.

Brandon Clarke Will Not Play On Tuesday

Memphis Grizzlies forward/center Brandon Clarke (calf) has been ruled out for Tuesday's contest against Phoenix. He will miss a second consecutive game due to a right soleus strain.

He's nursing a right index finger injury, and the team plans to re-evaluate Smart in a couple of weeks.

Santi Aldama Will Continue To Sit On Tuesday

Memphis Grizzlies forward/center Santi Aldama (ankle) will sit out a third consecutive game on Tuesday against Phoenix. The team considers Aldama week-to-week, so it might take some time before he's back on the court. Zach Edey (concussion) and Brandon Clarke (calf) also won't play on Tuesday, which should give Jay Huff an important role in […]

Zach Edey Unavailable Tuesday

Memphis Grizzlies center Zach Edey (concussion) will remain out on Tuesday versus Phoenix. He has yet to clear concussion protocol, sitting out a second straight game. Health issues have taken out several Grizzlies bigs recently, meaning Jay Huff could get a second look as a starter. He settled for only six points and three rebounds […]

Alex Caruso To Remain Out On Tuesday

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Alex Caruso (hip) will miss a fifth straight game on Tuesday versus Minnesota. He has failed to overcome a hip strain. Ajay Mitchell has figured more prominently in the rotation during Caruso's absence. The 22-year-old rookie has averaged 13.0 points, 4.8 rebounds, and 2.3 assists in 22.6 minutes across the last […]

Obi Toppin Questionable To Play On Tuesday

Indiana Pacers power forward Obi Toppin (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's matchup against Milwaukee. He's been out for a pair of games with a left ankle sprain, and the team considers him day-to-day. Jarace Walker has impressed in an expanded role lately and should continue to get extra work if Toppin remains out. The 21-year-old […]

Jeremiah Robinson-Earl Out On Monday

New Orleans Pelicans forward/center Jeremiah Robinson-Earl (ankle) will not play against the Clippers on Monday. Robinson-Earl will miss the action with a left ankle sprain. With the Pelicans battling injuries, Robinson-Earl has done a good job on the frontcourt, averaging 6.8 points and 4.8 rebounds in 19.4 minutes. His absence might help Javonte Green back […]

Aaron Nesmith Remains Without A Timeline

Indiana Pacers forward Aaron Nesmith (ankle) does not have a timeline for his return. Per Bobby Krivitsky of Forbes, Pacers head coach Rick Carlisle said on Sunday that Nesmith is making progress but is without a timetable.
