Darius Miller Won't Play on Saturday

New Orleans Pelicans guard/forward Darius Miller (quad) has been ruled out of Saturday's game against the Utah Jazz. Miller suffered a right quad contusion during Friday's contest. This isn't a huge blow to the Pelicans because Miller has not done much of anything all season. Wesley Johnson and Solomon Hill should see increased playing time […]

Luc Mbah a Moute is Questionable for Sunday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Luc Mbah a Moute (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Washington Wizards. He did not play on Friday due to a lingering knee issue. He has not done much when he does play, so he belongs on the waiver wire in fantasy leagues. Montrezl Harrell has been fantastic, averaging […]

Lonzo Ball Will Start on Saturday

Los Angeles Lakers point guard Lonzo Ball will remain in the starting lineup against the San Antonio Spurs on Saturday. The Lakers have played their two best games of the season with Ball as the starter. Rajon Rondo (suspension) is returning on Saturday, but will come off the bench. This is great news for Ball's […]

Anthony Davis Questionable For Saturday

New Orleans Pelicans forward/center Anthony Davis (elbow) is questionable to face the Utah Jazz on Saturday. The Pelicans released an injury report earlier today that Davis was not included on, but the former No. 1 pick in the 2012 draft found his way onto the afternoon report with a right elbow injury. Davis finished Friday's […]

Russell Westbrook Doesn't Practice on Saturday

Oklahoma City Thunder point guard Russell Westbrook (shoulder) did not practice on Saturday and his status for Sunday's game is unclear. He missed the first two games of the season while recovering from knee surgery. It's unknown how Westbrook picked up this shoulder issue. Dennis Schroder would start and be a popular DFS candidate, assuming […]

Josh Jackson Likely To Start In Place Of Devin Booker

With Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (hamstring) ruled out of Saturday's contest against the Memphis Grizzlies, head coach Igor Kokoskov said Josh Jackson would most likely start in Booker's place on Saturday night. Jackson has struggled to begin the season, averaging 8.3 points, 1.8 rebounds and 2.5 assists on 39.4 percent shooting from the floor. […]

James Johnson Ruled Out on Saturday

Miami Heat forward James Johnson (groin) has been ruled out of Saturday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Johnson has been practicing this week, but has not been cleared to play yet. It sounds like the Heat are going to be cautious and wait until Johnson is 100 percent before letting him on the court. […]

DeAndre Jordan Continues To Shine On Friday

Dallas Mavericks center DeAndre Jordan continued his terrific start to the season on Friday night, even though his team lost to the Toronto Raptors. He scored 18 points, on 5-for-10 shooting and hit surprising 8-of-9 free-throws. Jordan also pulled down a game-high 15 boards, to go along with his five assists and one block, in […]

Wesley Matthews Scores 21 Points In Loss

Dallas Mavericks shooting guard Wesley Matthews scored the ball well but was noticeably quiet on the rest of the stat sheet in a loss to the Toronto Raptors on Friday night.

E'Twaun Moore Effective Against Nets

New Orleans Pelicans forward E'Twaun Moore scored 15 points on 5-for-10 shooting in Friday's win over the Brooklyn Nets. He made a pair of shots from deep and added in four rebounds, an assist, and a steal. Moore faces a difficult matchup Saturday, though, against a Jazz team that's allowing the 11th-lowest three-point field goal […]

Harrison Barnes Struggles With Shot In Return From Injury

Dallas Mavericks small forward Harrison Barnes made his anticipated return from injury on Friday night against the Toronto Raptors. He struggled mightily with his shot though, shooting just 5-for-17 from the field and 3-of-5 from the free-throw line. Although disappointing, it was good to see Barnes aggressive and back on the court. Owners shouldn’t put […]

Jrue Holiday Scores 26 Points Against Nets

New Orleans Pelicans guard Jrue Holiday shouldered much of his team's scoring load in Friday's win over the Brooklyn Nets, scoring 26 points on 9-for-19 shooting while dishing out five assists, grabbing three rebounds, and adding a steal and a block. Holiday rebounded well from a tough shooting night against the Clippers, but he faces […]

Ryan Anderson Upgraded To Probable On Saturday

Phoenix Suns forward Ryan Anderson (hip) has been upgraded to probable for Saturday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. The stretch four has yet to miss any time this season, so it is unclear exactly when he picked up a right hip flexor strain. Anderson has been ineffective this season in 21.5 minutes of action per […]

Anthony Davis Has Double-Double Against Nets

It wasn't the biggest scoring output of the year for New Orleans Pelicans power forward/ center Anthony Davis when the Pelicans took on Brooklyn Friday, as Davis finished with 18 points on 6-for-19 shooting, but Davis grabbed a team-high 14 rebounds to go along with four steals, five blocks and three assists in the victory. […]

Luka Doncic Leads Mavericks In Scoring With 22 Points

Dallas Mavericks power forward Luka Doncic had a supremely efficient shooting game for his club, despite losing to the Toronto Raptors on Friday night.

Deandre Ayton Upgraded To Probable For Saturday's Game

Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton (ankle) has been upgraded to probable for Saturday's contest against the Memphis Grizzlies. The rookie has been dealing with soreness in his right ankle for quite some time but has been pushing through his nagging injury to begin the season. With Devin Booker (hamstring) already ruled out, look for a […]

Shabazz Napier Scores 16 Points Off Bench

Brooklyn Nets point guard Shabazz Napier is already turning into a strong scoring option off the Brooklyn bench. On Friday against the Pelicans, Napier scored 16 points on 6-for-11 shooting and added a pair of rebounds, an assist, and a steal. He could be worth a look by fantasy owners needing production in points and […]

Rondae Hollis-Jefferson Held To Four Points

Brooklyn Nets forward Rondae Hollis-Jefferson has now played two games since returning from a groin injury and while he hasn't put up huge scoring numbers, his presence has helped the Nets out. Still, a four-point, 2-for-7-shooting line isn't something fantasy owners want to see, though it did come with six rebounds, a block, and a […]

Jonas Valanciunas Scores 17 Points In Start

Toronto Raptors center Jonas Valanciunas got the start at center for the Raptors on Friday night to match up with DeAndre Jordan. JV had a pretty good scoring game too, with 17 points, but wasn't all that efficient, hitting on just 7-of-16 shot attempts. He also added eight rebounds, one assist, and one steal, in […]

Lorenzo Brown Plays 15 Minutes Off The Bench

Toronto Raptors point guard Lorenzo Brown had a decently productive game with his extended run on Friday night.

[…]

Jarrett Allen Held To Seven Points

Brooklyn Nets center Jarrett Allen scored seven points on 3-for-6 shooting in Friday's loss to the Pelicans.

It was a strong performance in everything but the points category for Allen, who finished tied for eighth on […]

D'Angelo Russell Has Efficient Game Against Pelicans

Brooklyn Nets guard D'Angelo Russell scored a team-high 24 points on 9-for-16 shooting in Friday's loss to the Pelicans. Russell was 6-for-9 from three and added five boards, four assists, and a steal on the night. He'll have a tough test on Sunday against the Warriors, who allow the fifth-fewest assists and 10th-fewest points per […]

Caris LeVert Scores 21 Points Against Pelicans

Brooklyn Nets guard Caris Levert continued to score a lot of points and use a lot of possessions in Friday's loss to the Pelicans, scoring 21 points on 8-for-23 shooting and posting the team's highest usage rate. LeVert was just 1-for-6 from deep in this one while adding in six rebounds and four assists. The […]

Reggie Bullock is Probable Saturday

Detroit Pistons forward Reggie Bullock (shoulder) is listed as probable for Saturday's game against the Boston Celtics. Bullock is dealing with a left shoulder sprain, but it does not appear to be serious. Luke Kennard (shoulder) is sidelined currently and Stanley Johnson has been awful. Bullock is going to see big minutes right now, but […]

Julius Randle Listed as Probable on Saturday

New Orleans Pelicans forward/center Julius Randle (foot) is listed as probable for Saturday's game against the Utah Jazz. Randle is dealing with plantar fasciitis in his left foot.

Elfrid Payton Expected to Play on Saturday

New Orleans Pelicans point guard Elfrid Payton (leg) is expected to play on Saturday and is not on the injury report against the Utah Jazz. Payton experienced some cramping on Friday, but it does not seem like anything serious. He's been hot to start the season and appears fine for Saturday's contest. Fantasy owners shouldn't […]

Justise Winslow Remains Probable Against Blazers

Miami Heat forward Justise Winslow (hamstring) is listed as probable for Saturday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Derrick Jones (foot) and Wayne Ellington (ankle) are also listed as probable for this one. However, Winslow was probable last game and was not able to play because his hamstring tightened up on him. It's unclear if […]

Derrick Jones Remains Probable on Saturday

Miami Heat forward Derrick Jones (foot) is listed as probable for Saturday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Jones did not play on Wednesday, but is expected to suit up for this contest. Both Justise Winslow (hamstring) and Wayne Ellington (ankle) are listed as probable on Saturday. Jones is going to see his playing time […]

Kevin Love Questionable For Saturday's Contest

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Kevin Love (foot) is questionable for Saturday's contest against the Indiana Pacers. According to Joe Vardon of The Athletic, Sam Dekker worked with the Cavs first team during Saturday morning's shootaround and could start against Indiana if Love is ruled out. Cleveland is officially in tank mode for the 2018 to 2019 […]

Wayne Ellington is Probable on Saturday

Miami Heat guard/forward Wayne Ellington (ankle) is probable for Saturday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. This would be his season debut, assuming he doesn't suffer a setback before tip off. Ellington is going to have competition with Dwayne Wade and Rodney McGruder fighting for the same minutes. Ellington has some fantasy value, but mostly […]
