Troy Daniels Continues To Shoot Well From Downtown

Phoenix Suns shooting guard Troy Daniels continued his barrage of three pointers on Friday night in the Suns loss to the Rockets. Daniels went 7-for-12 from downtown and finished with 23 points.

Oklahoma City Thunder point guard Russell Westbrook had another monster stat-line on Friday, but wasn't able to get his team the W in the overtime loss to Denver.

Orlando Magic center Nikola Vucevic scored 12 points on 5-for-16 shooting in Friday's loss to Chicago. He also added 14 rebounds, three assists, and a pair of blocks.

Cameron Payne Shoots Well From Deep Against Orlando

Chicago Bulls point guard Cameron Payne scored 11 points in Friday's win over the Orlando Magic. Payne made three of his four shots from three and also added six assists.

Alex Len Won't Play on Friday

Milos Teodosic Ruled Out Indefinitely

Los Angeles Clippers guard Milos Teodosic (foot) has been ruled out indefinitely due to a torn plantar fascia in his left foot. Teodosic has been dealing with this issue throughout the season. He missed Wednesday's contest and was expected to be sidelined for multiple games. It sounds like Teodosic could be out for the rest […]

Rajon Rondo is Questionable Against Cavs

New Orleans Pelicans point guard Rajon Rondo (wrist) is considered questionable for Friday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Rondo is likely headed towards a game-time decision since head coach Alvin Gentry did not have a real update and was unsure if Rondo would play. Rondo will test his hand in warmups and that will likely […]

Kevin Love is Questionable on Friday

Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Kevin Love (concussion) is questionable for Friday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. He did not play in Wednesday's contest against the Charlotte Hornets and is still in the concussion protocol. It's unclear whether or not Love will be able to pass the NBA's concussion protocol before tip-off on Friday. Larry Nance […]

Trevor Ariza is Questionable on Friday

Houston Rockets guard/forward Trevor Ariza (elbow) is questionable for Friday's game against the Phoenix Suns. It sounds like he suffered this injury on Tuesday, but luckily it is considered a minor issue. Ariza has not been given a "rest" day since he was nursing his hamstring issue over the All-Star break. The Rockets aren't playing […]

Chris Paul is Questionable Against Suns

Houston Rockets point guard Chris Paul (hip) is questionable for Friday's game against the Phoenix Suns. Paul has missed three of the Rockets last four contests, but that was due to a hamstring issue.

Elfrid Payton is Questionable on Friday

Phoenix Suns point guard Elfrid Payton (knee) is considered a game-time decision for Friday's game against the Houston Rockets. He did not participate in shootaround on Friday but will test his knee before the game. He did not play on Wednesday due to lingering tendinitis. Payton has struggled heavily lately anyway, so fantasy owners should […]

Dennis Schroder is Doubtful on Friday

Atlanta Hawks point guard Dennis Schroder (ankle) is doubtful for Friday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He suffered what is considered a minor ankle injury last weekend against the Warriors. He has missed two games since and is in danger of missing his third straight contest. The Hawks are tanking for draft positioning and have […]

Brandon Ingram Expected to Play Friday

Los Angeles Lakers guard/forward Brandon Ingram (hip) is probable for Friday's contest against the Milwaukee Bucks. Ingram returned on Wednesday and dropped 13 points, six rebounds and four assists in the victory over the Dallas Mavericks. The Lakers had Ingram on a minutes limit and it's safe to assume they will continue to ease him […]

Lauri Markkanen is Probable on Friday

Chicago Bulls power forward Lauri Markkanen (rest) is probable for Friday's game against the Orlando Magic. He sat out of Thursday's contest against the Miami Heat, but he certainly seemed healthy during Tuesday's game with the Rockets. The Bulls are tanking for draft positioning and have little incentive to play Markkanen at this point in […]

Quinn Cook Scores 30 Points Against Bucks

Golden State Warriors point guard Quinn Cook continues to play well in Stephen Curry's absence, putting up 30 points in Thursday's loss to the Bucks. Cook went 12-for-15 from the field and made all five of his three-point attempts. He had four rebounds and three assists as well. The Warriors play the Kings on Saturday, […]

Golden State Warriors Draymond Green (illness) returned to the lineup on Thursday against Milwaukee. He scored 11 points on 4-for-7 shooting. He also had six assists, five rebounds, two steals, and a block. Green is a great real life player, but he's been hard to predict from a fantasy point-of-view this season. The Warriors play […]

Kevin Durant Ejected In First Half

Golden State Warriors forward Kevin Durant (ribs) returned to the lineup on Thursday, but it didn't last long as he was ejected near the end of the first half.
