Stanley Johnson Will Start on Wednesday

Detroit Pistons forward Stanley Johnson (toe) will start in Wednesday's preseason game against the Washington Wizards. Johnson sat out of Monday's contest due to a toe issue.

Markieff Morris is Questionable for Wednesday

Washington Wizards forward Markieff Morris (abdominal) is questionable for Wednesday's preseason game against the Pistons. Morris sat out on Monday, but it wouldn't be surprising to see him out again. The Wizards want to be cautious and make sure Morris is 100 percent for the season opener. The injury doesn't seem serious, so fantasy owners […]

Kyrie Irving, Gordon Hayward Participate in Practice

Boston Celtics point guard Kyrie Irving (ribs) and forward Gordon Hayward (back) were full participants in practice on Wednesday. Both players were also able to get in some practice on Tuesday. It sounds like neither player is dealing with anything serious. It will be interesting to see how Hayward responds after missing basically all of […]

Jahlil Okafor is Questionable for Wednesday

New Orleans Pelicans center Jahlil Okafor (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's preseason game. The Pelicans are playing the front end of a back-to-back set, so it would make sense for Okafor to sit this one out. That would give him another night to rest his ankle and get out there on Thursday. There is a […]

Terrence Ross Will Remain Out on Wednesday

Orlando Magic guard/forward Terrence Ross (foot) will remain on the sidelines for Wednesday's preseason game. Ross has played in just one preseason game, but the Magic are hopeful that he can get back on the court for Friday's contest.

Derrick White Will Start on Wednesday

San Antonio Spurs point guard Derrick White will draw the start at point guard against the Atlanta Hawks on Wednesday. Dejounte Murray (knee) is most likely done for the season after tearing his ACL. It does not appear the Spurs are looking to add any significant updates to their roster at the moment. The Spurs […]

Dennis Schroder Has A Rough Night

Oklahoma City Thunder point guard Dennis Schroder went cold in Tuesday’s preseason win versus the Milwaukee Bucks. The former Hawks guard went just 2-for-10 on the night, adding three rebounds and an assist.

Draymond Green Will Be Ready for Season Opener

Golden State Warriors forward/center Draymond Green (knee) should be ready for the season opener, according to head coach Steve Kerr. The Warriors are going to be cautious with Green, but feel he has enough time to recover before the season begins. Green hasn't practiced in a week, but his injury is considered minor. This injury […]

Jonathan Isaac Expected to Play on Wednesday

Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac (ankle) was a full participant at shootaround and is expected to play in the preseason game on Wednesday.

Norman Powell is Not Playing on Wednesday

Toronto Raptors forward Norman Powell (thigh) will sit out against the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday. Powell is dealing with a right thigh contusion, but he's not expected to miss much time.

Dwight Howard Could Miss Season Opener

Washington Wizards center Dwight Howard (buttocks) visited a specialist in New York and has a piriformis injury. However, the injury isn't considered serious, but Howard's status for the season opener is in question. Head coach Scott Brooks didn't see whether or not Howard would be ready by the opener. It could be too early to […]

Thaddeus Young Will Play on Wednesday

Indiana Pacers forward Thaddeus Young (foot) missed all of training camp and the beginning of the preseason. Young has been dealing with a foot issue, but will be out there on Wednesday against the Bulls. It sounds like Young is full healthy, but he won't be the best fantasy asset this season. He's expected to […]

Lou Williams' Struggles Continue In Preseason

Los Angeles Clippers shooting guard Lou Williams went 4-for-13 from the field and 2-for-6 from the line in a win over the Denver Nuggets on Tuesday night.

Boban Marjanovic Posts Double-Double Versus Nuggets

Los Angeles Clippers center Boban Marjanovic scored 14 points and 12 rebounds with one assist and three blocks in a win over the Denver Nuggets. The 7-foot-5 center is looking to break out this season, as he is the only true center on the Clippers. He will be a low-budget center for fantasy, especially with […]

Danilo Gallinari Scores Game-High 16 Points Versus Nuggets

Los Angeles Clippers small forward Danilo Gallinari scored a game-high 16 points versus the Denver Nuggets on Tuesday night. He added in seven rebounds and two assists as he gets into condition for the season. He only played 21 games last year, so he will want to stay on the court as much as possible. […]

Denver Nuggets shooting guard Malik Beasley scored 12 points with four rebounds and three assists versus the Los Angeles Clippers on Tuesday night. He played a game-high 30 minutes as the Nuggets opted to play their bench for most of the game. Beasley is a good wild card the Nuggets may use as the season […]

Trey Lyles Records Double-Double In Preseason Loss

Denver Nuggets power forward Trey Lyles had 11 points and 12 rebounds to go along with an assist, steal and block against the Los Angeles Clippers. The Nuggets are 3-1 in the preseason and the team is looking ready for the season. Lyles will be a solid forward off the bench and can be relied […]

Monte Morris Scores 14 Points In Loss To Clippers

Denver Nuggets shooting guard Monte Morris scored 12 points off the bench in a loss to the Los Angeles Clippers on Tuesday night. He also added in a rebound, six assists and two steals in 24 minutes of play. The Nuggets decided to roll with their bench for most of the game, so Morris was […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Resting on Tuesday

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (rest) will sit out of Tuesday's preseason game. The Bucks will also be without Khris Middleton, Eric Bledsoe, and Brook Lopez due to rest. The good news is that these are not injuries, so fantasy owners don't need to worry. It appears the Bucks are just being cautious and trying […]

Denzel Valentine Likely to Miss Entire Preseason

Chicago Bulls forward Denzel Valentine (ankle) isn't ready to practice yet due to a left ankle issue, according to head coach Fred Hoiberg. The Bulls have been cautious with Valentine, and the fact he's not on the practice court is not a promising sign. There is a good chance that Valentine misses all of the […]

Eric Gordon Won't Play on Tuesday

Houston Rockets shooting guard Eric Gordon (foot) is sitting out against the Shanghai Sharks on Tuesday. Gordon hurt himself during Sunday's contest and it appears he's not ready to play yet. Head coach Mike D'Antoni said Gordon could play if he needed to, but the Rockets are going to be cautious especially in the preseason. […]

Michael Carter-Williams is Sitting Out on Tuesday

Houston Rockets point guard Michael Carter-Williams (knee) has been ruled out of Tuesday's preseason game against the Shanghai Sharks. He did not play on Sunday versus the Spurs, but the injury was obviously downplayed. MCW believes he'll be fine and ready soon, but the Rockets aren't going to rush him. There is a chance that […]

Clint Capela is Questionable for Tuesday

Houston Rockets center Clint Capela (hand) is questionable for Tuesday's preseason matchup with the Shanghai Sharks. Head coach Mike D'Antoni said a few days ago that he expects Capela to be fine. The Rockets don't believe the hand injury is serious, so the team is likely take the cautious approach here. It'd be surprising to […]

Derrick White Likely to Remain in Starting Lineup

San Antonio Spurs point guard Derrick White has seen his fantasy value skyrocket overnight with Dejounte Murray (knee) out for the season. The Spurs seem reluctant to add an additional guard at the moment, according to Jabari Young. It sounds like the Spurs are going to give White a chance to earn himself the starting […]

Frank Mason III Could Join Starting Lineup

Sacramento Kings shooting guard Frank Mason III got the start at shooting guard during Monday's preseason contest. Bogdan Bogdanovic (knee) is sidelined, so either Mason or Buddy Hield are the most likely candidates to take over the starting spot. Mason is averaging 11.5 points, 5.8 assists and 2.3 steals, while shooting 61.9 percent from the […]

Stanley Johnson is Back at Practice

Detroit Pistons forward Stanley Johnson (toe) is back at practice after sitting out of Monday's preseason contest.
