Caris LeVert is Probable on Friday

Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Caris LeVert (groin) is probable for Friday's contest against the Los Angeles Lakers. It sounds like he is on track to return after missing three games. Head coach Kenny Atkinson unleashed the combo of D'Angelo Russell and Spencer Dinwiddie on Wednesday. It would not be surprising to see LeVert drift into a […]

Jusuf Nurkic is Probable on Friday

Portland Trail Blazers center Jusuf Nurkic (quadriceps) is probable for Friday's contest against the Toronto Raptors. He suffered a leg injury in the fourth quarter of Wednesday's game, but it sounds like he will be fine. He is playing great basketball right now, but the same cannot be said about Ed Davis. It has been […]

Skal Labissiere Will Miss 2-3 Weeks

Sacramento Kings forward/center Skal Labissiere (shoulder) is expected to miss roughly two to three weeks. He has been playing through the injury for quite some time. The Kings finally decided to shut him down and let him rest up. Once healthy, Labissiere is expected to see heavy run with the Kings current youth movement. He […]

Willie Cauley-Stein is Probable Against Warriors

Sacramento Kings forward/center Willie Cauley-Stein (knee) is probable to play against the Golden State Warriors on Friday. He's missed two straight games but did go through shootaround and practiced fully on Thursday. WCS needs to be owned in all leagues, and he is expected to see heavy run. Kosta Koufos and Zach Randolph will take […]

Tyler Ulis Questionable on Friday

Phoenix Suns point guard Tyler Ulis (back) is questionable to play against the Utah Jazz on Friday. Head coach Jay Triano said Ulis "will warm up pregame to see about his availability" for Friday's contest. Ulis logged just 11 minutes on Wednesday and was held scoreless. Isaiah Canaan (ankle) is ruled out, so Devin Booker […]

Alex Len Ruled Out Against Jazz

Phoenix Suns forward/center Alex Len (ankle) has been ruled out against the Utah Jazz on Friday. Len has been forced to miss four of the last five games due to an ankle issue. Tyson Chandler will draw the start at center with Dragan Bender backing him up. Greg Monroe was waived and joined the Boston Celtics. […]

C.J. Miles is Questionable on Friday

Toronto Raptors guard/forward C.J. Miles (knee) is questionable for Friday's contest against the Portland Trail Blazers. Miles has missed each of the last two Raptors games.

Rodney Hood Won't Play Against Suns

Utah Jazz guard/forward Rodney Hood (leg) will not play against the Phoenix Suns on Friday. This marks his sixth straight game on the sidelines, but he has been working out.

Marcus Morris Won't Play on Friday

Boston Celtics forward Marcus Morris (hip) will not play against the Atlanta Hawks on Friday. He crashed down on his hip during Wednesday's victory and was helped off the floor. He did not return to the game, so it is not surprising to see him ruled out for this contest. Jayson Tatum and Semi Ojeleye […]

Kyrie Irving Ruled Out Against Hawks

Boston Celtics guard Kyrie Irving (quadriceps) has been ruled out against the Atlanta Hawks on Friday. It was predictable after Irving was forced to miss Wednesday's contest. The Celtics are hosting the worst team in the NBA in the Hawks, so there's no need to rush Irving back to the court. Shane Larkin (knee) has […]

Cody Zeller is Probable Against Pacers

Charlotte Hornets forward/center Cody Zeller (knee) is probable for Friday's contest against the Indiana Pacers. He's been out for almost two months, so expect some heavy minutes limits going forward. Zeller was averaging 7.2 points, 5.5 rebounds and 1.1 blocks in 19.9 minutes before the injury. He was the backup to Dwight Howard prior to […]

Dennis Schroder is Questionable on Friday

Atlanta Hawks point guard Dennis Schroder (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Friday's contest against the Boston Celtics. He will likely be a game-time decision but is on track to play. He injured his shoulder in the first half of Wednesday's game but was able to play through it. Malcolm Delaney and Isaiah Taylor would […]

Nikola Mirotic Won't Be Available on Friday

New Orleans Pelicans forward Nikola Mirotic will not be available for Friday's contest against the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Malcolm Brogdon is Doubtful on Friday

Milwaukee Bucks guard Malcolm Brogdon (quadriceps) is doubtful to play against the New York Knicks on Friday. He played in just 10 minutes of Thursday's contest and left the locker room on crutches. He is almost certainly going to miss time, but the Bucks still have seven games before the All-Star break. There is no […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Questionable on Friday

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (ankle) is questionable to play against the New York Knicks on Friday. He twisted his ankle pretty badly in Thursday's contest and was unable to put any weight on it after the game. Jabari Parker (knee) is expected to play, but it won't make up for the loss of Giannis. […]

Greg Monroe Signed by The Celtics off Waivers

The Boston Celtics have agreed to sign center Greg Monroe after the Phoenix Suns decided to buy him out of his contract. The Celtics, who have been looking for a scoring punch off the bench, will turn to Monroe. He might end up nabbing some starts if he can outplay Aron Baynes, but the Celtics […]

Andrew Wiggins Only Scores Seven Points

Minnesota Timberwolves small forward Andrew Wiggins struggled mightily on Thursday night. He scored just a measly seven points on 3-for-10 shooting and also went 1-for-2 from the foul line.

Pau Gasol Quiet Against Houston

San Antonio Spurs center Pau Gasol had a night to forget against Houston, as he scored only from the free throw line to record six points in 20 minutes on the floor. He attempted just one field goal, which was a missed three-ball. Gasol did some good work on the glass in limited minutes, grabbing […]

Dejounte Murray Keeps Gobbling Rebounds

San Antonio Spurs point guard Dejounte Murray had another great night on the glass against Houston, grabbing four offensive rebounds and a team-high 11 boards in total. He's now had three consecutive games with double-digit rebounds. However, he didn't manage to mold his good work on the glass to a double-double, as he finished with […]

LaMarcus Aldridge Solid in Spurs Loss

San Antonio Spurs power forward LaMarcus Aldridge had a solid but unspectacular night against the Houston Rockets, scoring 16 points on 8-for-15 shooting while grabbing eight rebounds in 34 minutes of action. Aldridge is having a bit of a bizarre run offensively right now, as he's had three 30-point nights in his last eight outings, but […]

Danny Green Leads Spurs in Scoring Against Houston

San Antonio Spurs shooting guard Danny Green put his recent shooting troubles behind him on Thursday and went for 22 points against the Houston Rockets, shooting 9-for-18 from the floor.

Blake Griffin Aggressive in Pistons Debut

He shot 8-for-12 from the line […]

Clint Capela Has Strong Outing Against Spurs

Houston Rockets center Clint Capela had another strong game on Thursday against the Spurs, finishing with 14 points and 13 rebounds. Capela shot 6-for-10 from the field and made both of his free throw attempts. In addition, he blocked five shots. Capela continues to play high-level basketball and provides solid fantasy numbers on a consistent […]

Gerald Green Scores 15 Points Against San Antonio

Houston Rockets shooting guard Gerald Green is back in the team's rotation with Trevor Ariza (hamstring) and Eric Gordon (back) currently sidelined. On Thursday night against the Spurs, the journeyman shooter scored 15 points on 4-for-13 shooting. Green went 3-for-11 from downtown and also added five rebounds. Green is a decent streaming option while Houston […]

James Harden Leads Houston In Points And Assists Against Spurs

Houston Rockets guard James Harden didn't have another 60-point triple-double on Thursday, but he did have a double-double as he led Houston to a win over the Spurs. Harden shot 10-for-20 from the field on his way to 28 points. He also had 11 assists. Harden wasn't as active on the boards as usual, recording […]

Kyle Lowry Can't Seal the Deal in D.C.

Toronto Raptors point guard Kyle Lowry was great on Thursday, having his best game since his 40-point outburst against the 'Wolves in Minnesota. Lowry scored a game-high 29 points on a clean 10-for-19 from the field, including four buckets from beyond the arc. Lowry was active in all facets of the game in this one, […]

DeMar DeRozan Does it All Against the Wizards

Toronto Raptors shooting guard DeMar DeRozan played a team-high 38 minutes on Thursday, scoring 23 points on 7-for-17 shooting in that span.
