Stanley Johnson Solid Off The Bench

Detroit Pistons small forward Stanley Johnson produced solid numbers off the bench in Friday’s game against the Hawks.

Nikola Jokic Scores 37 In Loss

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic scored 37 points on 14-for-22 shooting in Friday's loss to the Brooklyn Nets. Jokic also added 21 rebounds and three assists. It was another strong outing from one of the top options in fantasy basketball, and while Sunday's meeting with the Bucks should be a tough one, Jokic does too […]

Jarrett Allen Scores 18 Points Against Denver

Brooklyn Nets center Jarrett Allen scored 18 points on 7-for-14 shooting in Friday's win over the Denver Nuggets. He grabbed nine rebounds and added in five blocked shots.

Dario Saric Gets Traded To Minnesota

The Minnesota Timberwolves have acquired forward Dario Saric from the Philadelphia 76ers. The 76ers were never seriously mentioned in the Jimmy Butler sweepstakes, so this move is pretty surprising. It will be interesting to see how Minnesota coach Tom Thibodeau uses Saric going forward, but it is likely that he will slide right into the […]

Robert Covington Gets Traded To Minnesota

The Minnesota Timberwolves have acquired forward Robert Covington from the Philadelphia 76ers. The Sixers will be sending two of their starting forwards to Minnesota for Jimmy Butler, who has finally forced his way out of Minnesota's organization. The 27-year-old Covington is among the best wing defenders in the NBA, and at the time of the […]

Carmelo Anthony Ruled Out on Saturday

Houston Rockets forward Carmelo Anthony (illness) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Melo is coming off an awful game where he went 1-of-11 from the field for two points in 20 minutes. His fantasy value has really taken a dip this season. James Ennis and P.J. Tucker will see […]

John Henson, Ersan Ilyasova Are Available on Saturday

Milwaukee Bucks forward/centers John Henson (wrist) and Ersan IIyasova (knee) are both available for Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. Both players were listed as questionable with minor injuries. Neither player has been playing overly well this season, but Ilyasova is averaging 9.0 points, 6.7 rebounds in 23.2 minutes. He's worth a look in […]

Luc Mbah a Moute Ruled Out Saturday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Luc Mbah a Moute (knee) has been ruled out of Saturday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Head coach Doc Rivers continues to make it sound like Mbah a Moute is close to returning. He's expected to be back next week, but we've heard that story before. He's not worth grabbing in […]

Jakob Poeltl Out On Saturday

San Antonio Spurs center Jakob Poeltl has been ruled out of Saturday's contest against the Houston Rockets. With Pau Gasol (foot) also out, Chimezie Metu may see backup minutes at center. Poeltl has been a disappointment so far in San Antonio, averaging just 1.9 points and 3.4 rebounds in 10 minutes. He should be left […]

Avery Bradley is Out on Saturday

Los Angeles Clippers guard Avery Bradley (ankle) has been ruled out of Saturday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has likely taken over the starting shooting guard spot in Los Angeles. Bradley hasn't been able to make much of an impact since leaving the Celtics. The Clippers are likely going to elect using younger […]

Jimmy Butler Heading To Philly

The Philadelphia 76ers have acquired guard/forward Jimmy Butler from the Timberwolves. In exchange, Minnesota will receive forwards Robert Covington and Dario Saric along with a 2022 second-round pick. The 29-year-old will now head back East in a move that will undoubtedly make the Sixers a contender. If Butler can stay healthy and free of off-the-court […]

Will Barton Targeting Late November Return

Denver Nuggets guard/forward Will Barton (hip) continues to make solid progress each and every day. He's been out since late October and had surgery to repair his core and hip muscle issues. His timetable to return was five to six weeks, so Barton will be right around that timetable. Barton probably won't be back for […]

Daniel Theis is Targeting A Return Next Week

Boston Celtics forward Daniel Theis (foot) is targeting a return to the rotation next week. He's been out since late October, but has been making good progress lately. Theis did some running on the treadmill and light shooting on Friday. It's unclear when exactly Theis will return, but sometime next week is the best timetable […]

John Henson Questionable for Saturday's Game

Milwaukee Bucks forward/center John Henson (wrist) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game versus the Los Angeles Clippers due to left wrist soreness. Henson was also listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Golden State Warriors but finished with four points, three rebounds and one block in 13 minutes of action. Henson's 14.9 minutes […]

Ersan Ilyasova is Questionable on Saturday

Milwaukee Bucks forward Ersan Ilyasova (knee) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. It's unclear when llyasova injured his knee, but most likely it was during Thursday's win over Golden State. Hopefully this is nothing serious, but the Bucks may decide to be cautious with him. Thon Maker and Tony Snell would […]

Jimmy Butler Wants Reduced Playing Time

Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Jimmy Butler is going to speak with head coach Tom Thibodeau about having reduced minutes going forward. Butler believes he's logging in too many minutes and it should be spread around more evenly. He's currently playing over 40 minutes per game, but a reduced role would obviously hurt some of his fantasy […]

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 […]

J.J. Redick Scores 17 Off The Bench

Philadelphia 76ers shooting guard J.J. Redick lead the bench in scoring Friday night against the Charlotte Hornets. Redick finished with 17 points on 7-for-16 shooting and four assists in 36 minutes.

Devin Harris is Favorable to Play Saturday

Dallas Mavericks guard Devin Harris (hamstring) is favorable to play in Saturday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder, according to head coach Rick Carlisle. Harris hasn't played since the regular season opener. He practice on Friday and appears ready for game action. J.J. Barea and Jalen Brunson will lose some playing time once Harris returns […]

Ben Simmons Flirts With Triple-Double Friday

Philadelphia 76ers point guard Ben Simmons was a force to be reckoned with in the overtime win Friday over the Charlotte Hornets. Simmons contributed a robust stat line on 22 points on 9-for-15 shooting, 12 rebounds, eight assists, three blocks and two steals in 41 minutes. Simmons has picked up right where he left off […]

Dario Saric Scores 18 Points For Second-Straight Game

Philadelphia 76ers forward Dario Saric has found his groove after a disappointing start to the season. In the overtime win against the Charlotte Hornets Friday, Saric finished with 18 points on 6-for-13 shooting, nine rebounds, four three-pointers, two assists and a block in 40 minutes.

Gordon Hayward Returns To Utah, Scores 13 Points

Boston Celtics guard/ forward Gordon Hayward scored 13 points with seven assists, one rebound, one steal and one triple against his former Utah Jazz team.

Joel Embiid Posts Monster Line Friday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid was a man on a mission Friday night in an overtime win over the Charlotte Hornets.
