Terry Rozier Racks Up Season-High 39 Points

Charlotte Hornets guard Terry Rozier was on a roll Friday with a season-high 39 points as the team handed Milwaukee an embarrassing 138-109 home loss. He shot 15-for-29 from the field, including 6-for-15 from downtown, and collected two rebounds with four assists and one steal. Rozier has been a changed man in 2023 so far, […]

Zach LaVine Has 11 Treys During 41-Point Night

Chicago Bulls guard/forward Zach LaVine went berserk from downtown against Philadelphia on Friday, hitting 11 of his 13 shots en route to a game-high 41 points. He led the side to a 126-112 win with 14-for-19 overall shooting from the field and had two rebounds with six assists, two steals and one block. LaVine has […]

Keldon Johnson Goes Down With A Hamstring Injury

San Antonio Spurs forward Keldon Johnson sustained a left hamstring injury in Friday's win over Detroit, coming out after playing only 13 minutes in the first half. He finished with eight points. The Spurs are already without Devin Vassell (knee), so things could get rather interesting on the team, with two of its top scorers […]

Anthony Edwards Suffers A Hip Injury, Expects To Miss Sunday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Anthony Edwards left Friday's contest against the Clippers with hip soreness and doesn't expect to play Sunday versus Houston. The injury limited him to only 23 minutes of action and a season-low five points. It also comes at a really bad time, as Edwards was enjoying a nice scoring spurt, averaging 30.3 […]

Cameron Payne Unavailable Friday

Phoenix Suns point guard Cameron Payne (foot) won't be able to take the court Friday against Miami. He left Wednesday's clash with Cleveland early and is nursing a sore right foot. Payne had only just returned from a nine-game absence, so he's had some really bad luck on the injury front. His absence gives Duane […]

Clint Capela Misses A Sixth Consecutive Game

Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (calf) will remain on the shelf for Friday's battle with the Lakers, missing a sixth consecutive game. He is working his way back from a right calf strain and will get the next chance to return Sunday against the Clippers. Capela's absence has given a big boost to Onyeka Okongwu's […]

Naz Reid Available Again Friday

Minnesota Timberwolves center Naz Reid (back) will be back from a two-game absence on Friday against the Clippers. He's had trouble with back spasms but is good to go again. Reid recently had a very productive stretch with Rudy Gobert out of the lineup and he has a tough time pleasing fantasy managers with the […]

Jamal Murray Probable For Friday

Denver Nuggets point guard Jamal Murray (knee) is listed as probable for Friday's game against Cleveland. He has returned from a bad knee injury and the team has managed his workload carefully, with Murray not yet playing both games of a back-to-back this season. However, it appears that this will change with Friday's matchup after […]

Darius Garland Will Play Friday

Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Darius Garland (thumb) will rejoin the lineup Friday against Denver. He has missed three games with a sprained right thumb and the team considered him questionable for Friday's contest, but Garland is now officially ready to go. It remains to be seen how much the thumb injury still bothers him. If […]

Kawhi Leonard, Paul George Sit Out Friday's Game

Los Angeles Clippers forwards Kawhi Leonard (knee) and Paul George (hamstring) have been ruled out for Friday's matchup against Minnesota. The duo was already unlikely to play because the team is finishing off a back-to-back set. Leonard hasn't played both games of a back-to-back all year and George has picked up a right hamstring problem […]

Larry Nance Jr. Available On Friday

New Orleans Pelicans forward Larry Nance Jr. (shoulder) is available for Friday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. The 30-year-old is set to return after missing each of the last four games due to right shoulder soreness. Fellow forward Willy Hernangomez (ankle) is also available for Friday's contest. That means, Jaxson Hayes is likely to see […]

Gordon Hayward Officially Out On Friday

Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (hamstring) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. As expected, the veteran forward will sit this game out due to left hamstring soreness. Jalen McDaniels should slide into the starting five with Hayward sidelined. He's averaging 12.0 points, 6.0 rebounds, 1.6 assists over his last five […]

Josh Richardson Available On Friday

San Antonio Spurs forward Josh Richardson (quad) is available for Friday's game against the Detroit Pistons. He was listed as questionable coming into this game due to a quad contusion. It sounds like Richardson is good to go and should see an increased role going forward with Devin Vassell (knee) out indefinitely. Both Richardson and […]

Javonte Green To Miss At Least One Week

Chicago Bulls forward Javonte Green (knee) is going to be sidelined at least one week, according to head coach Billy Donovan. The 29-year-old continues to deal with right knee soreness that will force him to miss the next four games. Patrick Williams stands to gain the most fantasy value with Green on the sideline. He […]

Jerami Grant, Jusuf Nurkic Available On Friday

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (quad) and center Jusuf Nurkic (illness) are both available for Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers. This is good news for the Blazers who briefly lost Grant mid-game during their last contest due to a quad issue. Nurkic has been dealing with a non-COVID related illness, but it appears […]

Alex Caruso Ruled Out For Friday

Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He suffered an ankle injury on Wednesday and it appears he's going to miss this game due to the same issue. His absence should mean more playing time for Coby White. He has been providing 15th-round fantasy value […]

Nicolas Batum Will Miss Second Straight Outing Friday

LA Clippers power forward/center Nicolas Batum (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against Minnesota due to a sprained left ankle, marking his second consecutive absence. While Batum has been an integral role player for the Clippers, he has averaged just 4.9 field-goal attempts per contest this season, leaving him on the periphery of […]

Darius Garland Earns Questionable Tag For Friday’s Game

Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Darius Garland (thumb) has been deemed questionable to play in Friday's contest vs. Denver as he deals with a sprained right thumb, although he was able to participate in pre-game shootaround. Garland has been sidelined for each of Cleveland's last three outings due to the ailment, which has allowed Caris LeVert […]

Lonnie Walker IV Set To Miss At Least Next Two Weeks

Los Angeles Lakers shooting guard/small forward Lonnie Walker IV (knee) has been sidelined for at least the next two weeks due to left knee tendinitis. L.A. is set to play eight contests in that span, opening minutes on the wing for Juan Toscano-Anderson and Max Christie, among others. Walker has averaged a career-best 14.7 PPG […]

Austin Reaves Will Miss At Least Two Weeks With Injury

Los Angeles Lakers shooting guard/small forward Austin Reaves (hamstring) has been shut down for at least two weeks due to a strained left hamstring, at which point the team will re-evaluate his progress. Reaves has played an integral wing role for L.A. this season, averaging 10.8 PPG while shooting 48.8 percent overall. With injuries sweeping […]

Andre Iguodala Will Make Season Debut Saturday

Golden State Warriors small forward Andre Iguodala (hip) has been given the green light to make his first appearance of the 2022-23 season after missing the team's first 39 games due to a hip injury. The 38-year-old will be embarking on his final NBA year, but isn't likely to play a fantasy relevant role on […]

Caleb Martin Not Expected To Suit Up Friday

Miami Heat small forward Caleb Martin (quad) has been tagged as doubtful to play in Friday's game vs. Phoenix as he continues to battle a strained left quad. Martin returned to start each of Miami's past two contests, but he combined for just 10 points across 35 minutes. A return to the sidelines for Martin […]

Andrew Wiggins Logs Practice Friday, Could Play Saturday

Golden State Warriors small forward Andrew Wiggins (groin, illness) was able to notch a full practice session Friday, paving the way for a potential return to action Saturday against Orlando. Wiggins has been sidelined since Dec. 3 due to a tight right adductor, having dropped a season-high 36 points in his most recent outing before […]

Tyler Herro Earns Questionable Tag For Friday’s Contest

Miami Heat shooting guard Tyler Herro (back) has been bumped down to questionable for Friday's game against the Suns as he battles back spasms. Herro has not missed action since Nov. 21, which makes the Heat backcourt rotation in a potential absence unclear; with that said, Victor Oladipo and Gabe Vincent would stand to see […]

Paul George, Kawhi Leonard Questionable For Friday’s Game

LA Clippers forwards Paul George (hamstring) and Kawhi Leonard (knee) have been deemed questionable to play in Friday's contest vs. Minnesota. While the duo both suited up Thursday, an early deficit led to the two stars combining for just 32 minutes of action; Leonard has yet to play both legs of a back-to-back this season […]

Jrue Holiday Listed As Probable On Friday Versus Charlotte

Milwaukee Bucks guard Jrue Holiday (illness) missed the team's last game on Wednesday with a non-COVID illness but should be returning on Friday. The one-game absence will be welcomed by the Bucks and fantasy managers alike as both need him to produce. He was only able to play around 19 minutes in the team's last […]

Gordon Hayward Not Expected To Suit Up On Friday

Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (hamstring) was kept out of Wednesday's action and is now listed as doubtful for Friday's contest against the Milwaukee Bucks. The 32-year-old has missed big chunks of time this season, so hopefully, this sideline stint isn't as lengthy. If he does end up missing Friday's game, that will be his […]

RJ Barrett Sidelined Again On Friday Against Toronto

New York Knicks guard RJ Barrett (finger) will have to sit out another game with a laceration on his right index finger. He has missed the last four consecutive games with the same injury and will officially miss a fifth. Immanuel Quickley has entered the starting lineup and he's only rostered in 59 percent of […]

T.J. Warren Picks Up Questionable Tag On Friday

Brooklyn Nets forward T.J. Warren (ribs) suffered a rib contusion during Wednesday's game and had to leave the game after playing just 14 minutes. He wasn't able to return to the game and now is uncertain to play against the New Orleans Pelicans on Friday. Warren has played a big part in the offense while […]

Gary Payton II Questionable Again On Friday

Portland Trail Blazers guard Gary Payton II (ankle) made his season debut back on Monday after undergoing core surgery in the off-season, but he picked up an ankle injury that has kept him out of one game so far. He's still listed as questionable for the team's next game on Friday against the Indiana Pacers. […]
