LeBron James Probable For Sunday

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (foot) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Houston Rockets.

Khris Middleton Will Face The Blazers

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (ankles) is good to go heading into Saturday's matchup with Portland. The veteran had bilateral ankle surgery during the offseason and has been working his way back. Fortunately, he's coming along, most recently amassing 12 points in 24 minutes in Thursday's narrow loss to the Brooklyn Nets. While Middleton still […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Cleared For Action On Saturday

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) is available for Saturday's game versus the Trail Blazers.

But he's made up for it from a statistical standpoint, […]

Noah Clowney Upgraded To Available On Saturday

Brooklyn Nets forward Noah Clowney (hip) has been upgraded to available for Saturday night's game against the Philadelphia 76ers.

Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball (ankle, wrist) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Ball has missed each of Charlotte's last three games.

Oubre is dealing with a left hand sprain that's caused him to miss each of Philadelphia's last two games. The 29-year-old has been a decent fantasy option this year, posting up 12.8 PPG and 5.7 RPG. […]

Paolo Banchero Still Ruled Out For Sunday's Game

Orlando Magic forward Paolo Banchero (conditioning) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Utah Jazz.

Detroit Pistons forward Simone Fontecchio (personal) is listed as questionable for Saturday night's matchup against the Minnesota Timberwolves for personal reasons. Fontecchio has missed Detroit's last two games, putting him in danger of missing a third straight. The 29-year-old has produced modestly off Detroit's bench this season, averaging 6.4 PPG in 30 games. If he's […]

Stephen Curry Sidelined Versus Memphis

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (knee) won't play on Saturday versus Memphis. The multi-time NBA champion will take the night off because of injury management purposes related to his knees. However, he'll likely be back on Sunday versus the Sacramento Kings. Without Curry on the floor, Dennis Schroder should handle the ball more than […]

Jalen Brunson Probable For Saturday Evening

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson (calf) is probable for Saturday's game in Chicago. The 28-year-old has been plagued by calf tightness of late. He's mostly played through it, although he missed Wednesday's game against the Utah Jazz before returning for Friday's loss to the Thunder. However, he struggled, shooting 9-for-23 from the field. With […]

He's also missed only four games after logging 62 games or less […]

Noah Clowney Questionable For Saturday Night

Brooklyn Nets forward Noah Clowney (hip) is questionable for Saturday's meeting with the 76ers.
