Taj Gibson Scores Season-High 17 Points

Minnesota Timberwolves power forward Taj Gibson scored 17 points and added nine rebounds during Monday’s win over the Brooklyn Nets.

While […]

Karl-Anthony Towns Delivers Monster 20-20 Performance

Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns carried the load during Monday’s victory over the Brooklyn Nets, pouring in 25 points and snatching 21 rebounds, the sixth time in his career he has produced a 20-20 game.

Andrew Wiggins Logs 38 Minutes After Questionable Designation

Minnesota Timberwolves small forward Andrew Wiggins entered Monday’s matchup against the Brooklyn Nets questionable to play due to a quad issue, but he alleviated any of those concerns by logging 38 minutes of action.

Spencer Dinwiddie Fouls Out But Could See More Minutes

Brooklyn Nets point/shooting guard Spencer Dinwiddie scored 14 points in 28 minutes during Monday’s loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. While it was the 10th consecutive game in double figures off the bench for Dinwiddie, he fouled out of a game for the first time this season. It comes via unfortunate circumstances surrounding Caris Levert’s injury, […]

Caris LeVert Injury Leaves Scoring Void For Nets

Brooklyn Nets shooting guard Caris Levert suffered what appears to be a serious right leg injury during Monday’s loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. Prior to his departure, he scored 10 points on 5-for-12 shooting in 17 minutes of action.

Miami Heat guard/forward Josh Richardson scored 17 points on 4-for-8 shooting, adding in one rebound, one block, one steal and four three-pointers in 37 minutes against the Philadelphia 76ers.

Korkmaz was also able to tie a career-high with four rebounds and provide one steal on the night. The 76ers don't have a ton of wing options, so his quality production does open […]

Markelle Fultz Struggles On Monday

Philadelphia 76ers guard Markelle Fultz scored five points on 2-for-8 shooting on Monday night against the Miami Heat, adding in two rebounds and five assists. Fultz had been trending in the right direction over his previous few contests, but this game does have him take a backward step in his maturation process. He attempted an […]

Ben Simmons Effective On Monday

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Ben Simmons scored 13 points on 5-for-7 shooting from the field, adding in seven rebounds, seven assists and one steal. Simmons is averaging 17.8 points, 10.2 rebounds and 7.2 assists in his previous five contests, but he will be asked to play off the ball more with Jimmy Butler arriving in Philadelphia. […]

P.J. Tucker Is Questionable Versus Nuggets

Houston Rockets small forward/small forward P.J. Tucker (stomach) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Nuggets, per Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle.

Houston Rockets center Clint Capela (knee) is not on the Rockets injury report for Tuesday's game against the Nuggets, according to Jonathan Feigen of the Houston Chronicle. Capela put up 18 points and seven rebounds in 29 minutes but wasn't able to finish Sunday's game against the Pacers as a result of a bruised knee. […]

Nikola Mirotic Remains Out Monday Night

New Orleans Pelicans forward Nikola Mirotic (ankle) will remain on the sidelines Monday night against the Toronto Raptors. Mirotic was a true game-time decision Monday with an ankle sprain, but did not feel healthy enough to return to the court. In Mirotic's absence, Julius Randle will continue to start and be a great DFS option. […]

Jarrett Allen Ruled Out With Illness Monday

Brooklyn Nets center Jarrett Allen (illness) will miss Monday night's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Elfrid Payton Remains Out Monday

New Orleans Pelicans point guard Elfrid Payton (ankle) will stay on the bench Monday night against the Toronto Raptors.

Aaron Gordon Starting Monday

Orlando Magic forward Aaron Gordon (ankle) will play and start Monday night against the Washington Wizards.

J.R. Smith, Kyle Korver Miss Monday's Practice

Cleveland Cavaliers guards J.R. Smith (illness) and Kyle Korver (foot) did not participate in Monday's practice. Both players are being considered questionable for Tuesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Neither player is a reliable fantasy option, but should continue to see chances with the Cavs tanking. Rodney Hood, Jordan Clarkson and possibly David Nwaba should […]

Cedi Osman Ruled Out for Tuesday

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Cedi Osman (back) will not play in Tuesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. He did return to practice on Monday, so possibly the Cavs are just being cautious. Jordan Clarkson and Rodney Hood should see all the minutes they can handle with the Cavs roster banged up at the moment.

Shaun Livingston Will Play on Monday

Golden State Warriors guard Shaun Livingston (foot) will play in Monday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. He missed seven straight games, but is finally back in the rotation.
