De'Anthony Melton Comes Up Big On Both Ends

Philadelphia 76ers guard De'Anthony Melton had a superb game at both ends of the floor Friday versus the Lakers, contributing with 33 points and seven steals in a 133-122 overtime win.

Bogdan Bogdanovic Sinks Seven Treys Versus Brooklyn

Orlando Magic guard/forward Franz Wagner enjoyed a big night against the Raptors Friday, finishing a 113-109 victory with a career-high 34 points.

Toronto Raptors forward/center Pascal Siakam went for 36 points in Friday's defeat to Orlando, adding nine rebounds, seven assists, one steal and one block in 38 minutes of action.

He had only one turnover in 35 minutes on the floor and shot 4-for-10 from downtown. Hield has […]

Jamal Murray Probable Versus Utah

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (knee) is expected to play on Saturday versus Utah. Murray is dealing with a left knee contusion, but considering he is listed as probable, fantasy managers should expect to see him out there. The 25-year-old is returning to form after missing all of last season, scoring 20 points or more […]

Al Horford Remains Out On Saturday

Boston Celtics forward/center Al Horford remains out on Saturday against Golden State. The veteran has missed the previous two games while adhering to health and safety protocols, so his next chance to suit up will come on Monday versus the Clippers in L.A. In the meantime, Blake Griffin, who nearly had a double-double in Wednesday's […]

Terance Mann Questionable Against Washington

Los Angeles Clippers guard Terance Mann (concussion) is questionable for Saturday's meeting in Washington. Reggie Jackson (rest) will get the night off, so assuming Mann can clear concussion protocol, he could see an uptick in production alongside John Wall. Yet, considering Kawhi Leonard and Paul George are presumably available, Mann may not offer enough to […]

Reggie Jackson Will Rest On Saturday

Los Angeles Clippers guard Reggie Jackson (rest) won't play on Saturday versus Washington. With L.A. wrapping up its road trip, the veteran will get some rest before presumably returning for Monday's home meeting with the Celtics. John Wall could slide into the starting lineup in Jackson's place. However, considering Wall has averaged 22 minutes per […]

Jeremy Sochan Not Available Against Miami

San Antonio Spurs forward Jeremy Sochan (quadriceps) remains out for Saturday's clash against the Miami Heat, marking his fifth consecutive absence. The rookie has averaged 8.1 points, 4.1 rebounds and 1.0 steals this season, so hopefully he'll be back sooner rather than later. With Keita Bates-Diop (foot) also unavailable, players like Romeo Langford, Doug McDermott and […]

Max Strus Listed As Probable For Saturday's Game

Miami Heat guard Max Strus (shoulder) is probable for Saturday's meeting with the Spurs. The 26-year-old has been dealing with a right shoulder injury recently. However, he's battled through it. Strus has played well this season, averaging a career-high 14.3 points and 3.5 rebounds. While his three-point percentage has taken a turn in the wrong […]

Duncan Robinson Likely To Suit Up Against The Spurs

Miami Heat forward Duncan Robinson (ankle) is expected to play versus the San Antonio Spurs. The 28-year-old has been battling a sprained left ankle. However, considering he hasn't seen a consistent workload all season, his status in either direction won't impact many fantasy managers, anyway. Robinson has also averaged only 6.1 points per game in […]

Gabe Vincent Won't Play Against San Antonio

Miami Heat guard Gabe Vincent (knee) won't play on Saturday versus the Spurs. The 26-year-old has averaged 8.8 points, 2.9 assists, and 2.1 rebounds this season. Yet, he's been in and out of the lineup for nearly a month. However, with Kyle Lowry expected to suit up against San Antonio, Vincent likely wouldn't have offered […]

Victor Oladipo Expected To Play On Saturday

Miami Heat guard Victor Oladipo (knee) is expected to play against the Spurs on Saturday. He's listed on the injury report because of left knee Tendinosis, although the probable designation is a promising sign regarding his availability.

Tyler Herro Probable For Saturday's Action

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (ankle) remains on the injury report as probable for Saturday's clash with the Spurs. The team continues to have him on the injury list, but Herro hasn't had any trouble putting in some very serious work since returning from a left ankle sprain. He's played in eight consecutive games, logging […]

Dewayne Dedmon Questionable For Saturday

Miami Heat center Dewayne Dedmon (foot) is questionable for Saturday's matchup against the Spurs. He is dealing with plantar fasciitis in his left foot and it's been bothering him for a while, with the veteran center a regular on the team's injury report. Despite the health issue, Dedmon has played in 21 of 26 games […]

Jimmy Butler Regarded As Probable For Saturday

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (knee) looks on track to play Saturday versus San Antonio, with the team listing him as probable for the contest. He is having issues with his right knee and Miami kept him out from a game earlier in the week in a back-to-back situation, but there's only one game scheduled […]

Taurean Prince A Week Away From Returning

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Taurean Prince (shoulder) will sit out a seventh consecutive game Friday against Utah, and the team doesn't expect him to return for at least a week. The 28-year-old is having problems with his right shoulder, and his absence has been quite a blow for the team during a time in which Karl-Anthony […]

Lauri Markkanen Unavailable Friday

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (illness) hasn't recovered in time for Friday's tilt against Minnesota. He missed Wednesday's matchup against the Warriors with a non-COVID illness and there were hopes of him getting healthy for Friday, with the team initially listing him as questionable for the game, but Markkanen hasn't been able to shake off […]

Brandon Ingram Misses A Sixth Consecutive Game

New Orleans Pelicans guard/forward Brandon Ingram (toe) will remain on the shelf for Friday's contest against the Suns. He is working his way back from a big toe sprain and isn't quite ready yet, sitting out a sixth consecutive game. With Herbert Jones (ankle) also remaining out, Trey Murphy III and Naji Marshall have an […]

Jose Alvarado Will Suit Up Friday

New Orleans Pelicans point guard Jose Alvarado (ribs) will be in the lineup Friday versus Phoenix. He has been dealing with a right rib contusion but it won't make him sit out any action. The 24-year-old has carved out a nice role for himself in New Orleans this season and Alvarado is just a few […]

Donovan Mitchell Out On Friday Evening

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (ankle) is out on Friday versus the Kings. He injured his ankle during the November 11 meeting with the Golden State Warriors and has battled soreness ever since. There's a chance Mitchell could be back on Saturday against OKC. In the meantime, Caris LeVert will enter the starting lineup and […]

LeBron James Will Suit Up In Philly

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) will play on Friday against the 76ers after getting the night off for Wednesday's meeting with Toronto because of left ankle soreness. While the absence was concerning for fantasy managers, it was mostly done for precautionary measures, considering the team was playing the second of back-to-back meetings. That […]

Anthony Davis Officially Active On Friday

Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (illness) will play in Friday's meeting with the 76ers. Head coach Darvin Ham confirmed the news, and it comes after Davis exited Tuesday's game in Cleveland with Flu-like symptoms while missing Wednesday's matchup in Toronto. While the 29-year-old has a tough challenge on tap versus Joel Embiid, he remains […]

Keita Bates-Diop Out Again On Saturday

San Antonio Spurs forward Keita Bates-Diop (foot) is sidelined on Saturday versus Miami. Bates-Diop has averaged 13.1 points and shooting an impressive 47.6% from deep in eight starts this season, getting some additional work with Jeremy Sochan (quadriceps) out of the lineup. However, with both men unavailable, the door is open Doug McDermott, who had […]

Devin Vassell Questionable Versus Miami

San Antonio Spurs guard Devin Vassell (knee) is listed as questionable for Saturday's meeting with Miami. The 22-year-old missed Thursday's game against the Rockets, allowing Malaki Branham to enter the starting lineup. However, the rookie did little with his enhanced role, finishing with five points while shooting 2-for-7 from the field and 1-for-4 from downtown. […]

Jakob Poeltl Out Again On Saturday

San Antonio Spurs center Jakob Poeltl (knee) remains out for Saturday's matchup versus Miami, his fifth consecutive absence because of a bone bruise in his right knee. Zach Collins has taken Poeltl's place in the lineup in the last four games, averaging 7.5 points and 5.8 rebounds. However, Collins has received only 23 minutes per […]

Kevin Love Listed As Out For Friday

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Kevin Love (back) was only able to play nine minutes during Tuesday's contest. The team didn't give a reason why, but now have the veteran forward listed as out for Friday's game with back soreness. Luckily, Jarrett Allen is back, so the absence of Love isn't going to hurt too much. Cedi […]

Donovan Mitchell Questionable On Friday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (leg) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Sacramento Kings. The star guard is reportedly dealing with right leg soreness, so we could see him sit this one out. His absence would likely result in Caris LeVert moving into the starting five. LeVert has been effective off the […]
