Donte DiVincenzo Out For A Few Weeks

Milwaukee Bucks guard Donte DiVincenzo (ankle) will miss a few weeks.

Milwaukee Bucks guard Grayson Allen remains in COVID-19 health and safety protocols and won't suit up against Brooklyn on Friday.

Nonetheless, with San Antonio short-handed on Friday […]

Danny Green To Play Against Visiting Spurs

Philadelphia 76ers forward Danny Green (calf) will play against the San Antonio Spurs on Friday.

De'Anthony Melton Questionable Against Pistons

Memphis Grizzlies guard De'Anthony Melton is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Melton has cleared the league's health and safety protocols. That means, Melton could return Thursday, but the organization might hold him out due to conditioning concerns. Regardless, it sounds like Melton will return soon and he should have a […]

Kyle Anderson Is Doubtful For Thursday

Memphis Grizzlies forward Kyle Anderson (back) is listed as doubtful for Thursday's game against the Detroit Pistons. He has cleared the league's health and safety protocols. Although, he'll likely sit this game out due to lingering back soreness. His absence will mean more minutes for Brandon Clarke. He has played well in Anderson's absence and […]

Dillon Brooks Uncertain For Thursday

Memphis Grizzlies forward Dillon Brooks is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Brooks has cleared the league's health and safety protocols, but his status for this matchup remains uncertain.

New York Knicks guard Kemba Walker (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Boston Celtics. The MRI on Walker's knee came back clean, but the team doesn't feel comfortable letting him play on Thursday. That being said, Alec Burks will remain the starting point guard, while Immanuel Quickley gets more playing time […]

Draymond Green Not Playing On Thursday

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green (hip) is listed as out for Thursday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Fantasy managers shouldn't be too concerned as it seems the Warriors are giving both Green and Stephen Curry (quad) the night off to rest. That being said, Otto Porter Jr. is looking like a must-start fantasy […]

Stephen Curry Out On Thursday

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (quad) is listed as out for Thursday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. This isn't surprising considering Curry mentioned on Wednesday he was likely to sit this game out. The hope is that this is only a one game absence and a rest day for Curry. In the meantime, […]

Nerlens Noel Sitting Out Versus Celtics

New York Knicks center Nerlens Noel has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Boston Celtics.

Isaiah Stewart Removed From Injury Report

Detroit Pistons center Isaiah Stewart has been removed from the injury report ahead of Thursday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He has already cleared the league's health and safety protocols.

George Hill Won't Play Wednesday

Milwaukee Bucks guard George Hill has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. The veteran guard will sit this one out while he follows the league's health and safety protocols. He wasn't exactly a huge factor in the rotation, but the Bucks are already shorthanded for Wednesday. His absence should result in […]
