Al Horford Posts Solid Stat Line On Friday

Boston Celtics center Al Horford posted 13 points, four rebounds, three assists, one steal, two blocks and one three-pointer on Friday night against the Utah Jazz in 29 minutes. The best way to describe Horford would be solid without being spectacular. He possesses the ability to fill the box score on any given night but […]

Jayson Tatum Scores 21 Points Against Jazz

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum scored 21 points with four assists, three rebounds, five steals and two triples in 36 minutes of action against the Utah Jazz.

Victor Oladipo Likely To Play Friday

Indiana Pacers guard Victor Oladipo (knee) tweaked his knee on Wednesday versus the Philadelphia 76ers but should be good to go Friday against the Heat. While this never seemed to be in doubt, it is still positive news for all Oladipo owners and those that are rostering him on the night. The 26-year-old looked good […]

Pau Gasol Out Again On Saturday

San Antonio Spurs forward/center Pau Gasol (foot) will not be active for Saturday's game against the Houston Rockets. It'll be his second straight contest that he has been ruled out for with soreness problems.

Paul Millsap Available For Friday's Game Against Brooklyn

Denver Nuggets forward Paul Millsap (ankle) will be available for Friday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. Millsap hasn't missed any time due to his ankle injury, but after a two-point showing on Wednesday night, he clearly doesn't look right either. Millsap has only played in 23.7 minutes during the last seven days, and Trey Lyles […]

Derrick Jones Jr. Will Now Play On Friday

Updating a previous report, Miami Heat forward Derrick Jones (knee) is now playing in Friday's contest against the Indiana Pacers. Jones had left Wednesday's game after coming down awkwardly on a rebound and was initially listed as out for the game tonight. While this is positive news for the Heat, Jones is buried on the […]

Rudy Gay Out On Saturday Against Rockets

San Antonio Spurs forward Rudy Gay (heel) will miss Saturday's game against the Houston Rockets, making it three straight contests the 32-year-old has been unable to play. This isn't the first time Gay has had a heel problem flare up on him, and it cost him multiple games last season and issues during this preseason […]

Victor Oladipo Questionable For Friday's Game

Indiana Pacers guard Victor Oladipo (knee) is questionable for Friday's game against the Miami Heat. While it is not 100 percent clear when Oladipo suffered a bruised left knee, it seems like it may have come from contact against the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday night. Stay tuned for updates regarding Oladipo's availability tonight. One would […]

Stephen Curry Has 'Mild To Moderate' Strain

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (groin) is dealing with a 'mild to moderate' groin strain, according to Marc Spears of ESPN.

Omri Casspi Out On Saturday Against the 76ers

Memphis Grizzlies forward Omri Casspi (knee) has been ruled out of Saturday's contest against the Philadelphia 76ers. This will be Casspi's third straight game he has missed because of right knee soreness, and he should be avoided and left on the waiver wire in all settings. Kyle Anderson has been starting to heat up and […]

Malcolm Brogdon Scores Season-High 20 Points

Milwaukee Bucks guard Malcolm Brogdon scored a season-high 20 points against the Golden State Warriors on Thursday night. After a season-low four points in his previous game on Tuesday, this is a great bounce-back effort for the 25-year-old. Brogdon has been producing top-100 nine-category league value on the season, and a performance like this will […]

Eric Bledsoe Torches Golden State Warriors

Milwaukee Bucks guard Eric Bledsoe put on a clinic during Thursday's road victory over the Golden State Warriors.

Fresh off of his five-point performance on Tuesday, the eight-year pro bounced back […]

Brook Lopez Struggles On Thursday Against Warriors

Milwaukee Bucks center Brook Lopez only managed two points on 1-for-5 shooting, adding in four rebounds, two assists, one steal and one block in 22 minutes. The game was one of the lowlight efforts for Lopez on the season, who has been producing top-20 value at the center position in nine-category leagues coming into the […]

Khris Middleton Scores 17 Points Against Warriors

Milwaukee Bucks guard/forward Khris Middleton provided 17 points to go along with three rebounds, six assists, three steals, one block and two three-pointers in 29 minutes of action. Middleton wasn't very effective from the floor, going just 6-for-16 in total and 2-for-9 from deep, but his +33 plus/minus rating was the best on the team. […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Makes MVP Case In Prime-Time Game

Milwaukee Bucks guard/forward Giannis Antetokounmpo scored 24 points with nine rebounds, four assists, two blocks, two steals and two turnovers in 26 minutes against the Golden State Warriors on Thursday.

Andre Iguodala Should Be Left On Waiver Wire

Golden State Warriors guard/ forward Andre Iguodala scored six points to go along with two rebounds, one steal, one block and two three-pointers in 16 minutes against the Milwaukee Bucks on Thursday. Iguodala is averaging only 3.1 points in 18.7 minutes of action this season, and it appears as if the Warriors will actively be […]

Klay Thompson Leads Warriors In Scoring On Thursday

Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson led the team with 24 points during Thursday's 134-111 home shellacking at the hands of the Milwaukee Bucks. With Stephen Curry (groin) suffering an adductor injury during the contest, Thompson could be in store for some big games going forward if Curry's MRI doesn't come back clean on Friday. […]

Damian Jones Is Effective In 23 Minutes On Thursday

Golden State Warriors center Damian Jones scored 12 points with four rebounds, one assist and one steal in 23 minutes against the Milwaukee Bucks on Thursday. Jones was also able to add in an effective performance from the floor by shooting 6-for-8. Despite the appearance, the 23-year-old still doesn't have a ton of long-term fantasy […]

Kevin Durant Scores 17 Points During Blowout Loss

Golden State Warriors forward Kevin Durant scored 17 points on six of 15 shooting against the Milwaukee Bucks during Thursday's blowout home loss. Durant added in nine assists and five rebounds on the night, but his six turnovers didn't help the team's cause. The 30-year-old has been brilliant on the season, averaging 26.8 points, 7.3 […]

Jordan Bell Gives Owners A Bit Of Everything

Golden State Warriors forward/center Jordan Bell produced four points to go along with five rebounds, three assists, one steal and one block in 22 minutes of action against the Milwaukee Bucks on Thursday night. While you didn't get much production in any one stat, Bell provided a nice little haul of goodies against the Bucks […]

Quinn Cook Is Worth A Speculative Add

Golden State Warriors guard Quinn Cook scored 15 points with two rebounds, five assists and three three-pointers in 19 minutes against the Milwaukee Bucks on Thursday night. But the big news for Cook was that Stephen Curry (groin) was forced out of Thursday's contest with an adductor strain that he suffered in the third quarter. […]

Stephen Curry Leaves Thursday's Game With Adductor Strain

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (groin) was unable to finish Thursday's contest against the Milwaukee Bucks due to an adductor strain.

Gary Harris Finds Some Three-Point Range On Wednesday

Denver Nuggets guard Gary Harris has been trying to shoot his way out of an early-season slump from behind the arc.

Harris' 3-for-6 effort from three-point land on Wednesday was just the second time this season […]

Trey Lyles Is A Bright Spot For Nuggets On Wednesday

Denver Nuggets forward Trey Lyles was one of the bright spots for the team during Wednesday's road loss to the Memphis Grizzlies.
