Paolo Banchero Getting Back To Light, Non-Contact Court Work

Orlando Magic forward Paolo Banchero (oblique) hasn't played since October 30 due to an oblique injury but seems to be trending in the right direction. He told Sports Illustrated that he was feeling good and returned to the court where he got some ball-handling and spot-shooting work done. He wasn't able to do any sprinting […]

Joel Embiid Will Remain Sidelined Tuesday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee/personal) will reportedly be ruled out again for Tuesday's matchup with the Charlotte Hornets. According to Philadelphia Inquirer's Keith Pompey, Embiid will miss another game due to left knee injury management and personal reasons. This will mark his 15th missed game of the season, and Guerschon Yabusele will likely see […]

FanDuel NBA DFS Picks for Today (Monday 12/2/24): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

We have only four games on the main slate tonight, which is a lot fewer than usual for a Monday night. That's going to condense our player pool and make the most popular plays even chalkier. I don't mind playing cash games with at least four games, but if you're a GPP player it's a […]

Coby White Regarded As Questionable For Monday

Chicago Bulls guard Coby White (ankle) is considered questionable to play against Brooklyn on Monday. After dealing with a wrist injury, White hurt his left ankle against Boston on Friday. Talen Horton-Tucker has provided excellent bench scoring for the Bulls lately and might see extra action with White unavailable on Monday. At the same time, […]

Bogdan Bogdanovic Likely To Return On Monday

Atlanta Hawks guard/forward Bogdan Bogdanovic (hamstring) is expected to rejoin the lineup on Monday versus New Orleans. The team has listed him as probable for the game. Bogdanovic sat out Saturday's contest against Charlotte as Atlanta completed a back-to-back. The veteran scorer has returned from a hamstring injury, and the Hawks don't want to overwork […]

Trae Young Listed As Probable For Monday

Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young (Achilles) has been listed as probable on the injury report ahead of Monday's action against New Orleans. The Hawks superstar is dealing with right Achilles tendinitis but has played through the issue with no problems. Young went a bit quiet against the Hornets on Saturday but has been performing […]

Kevin Porter Jr. Sidelined Versus Nuggets

Los Angeles Clippers point guard Kevin Porter Jr. (ankle) will sit out Sunday's tilt against Denver. He hurt his left ankle in Friday's 93-92 loss to Minnesota. Porter Jr. scored a season-high 17 points and had three steals in Friday's contest. He's carved out a decent role on the Clippers squad, averaging 8.8 points, 3.5 […]

Kevin Huerter Out On Sunday

Sacramento Kings guard/forward Kevin Huerter (ankle) will not play in Sunday's contest against San Antonio. He injured his right ankle against Portland on Friday and was previously already considered doubtful for the game. Huerter's absence should guarantee extra work for Keon Ellis and Malik Monk. The latter has far more fantasy appeal, especially as Monk […]

Norman Powell Ready To Rock Sunday

Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Norman Powell (hamstring) will return to action on Sunday against Denver. He has finally recovered from a hamstring strain, which kept Powell sidelined for six games. The 31-year-old is off to a great start to the season and has even started to sneak into All-Star conversations. Powell has averaged 23.3 points […]

Kris Murray Active On Sunday

Portland Trail Blazers forward Kris Murray (sternum) will be in the lineup on Sunday against Dallas. He's nursing a bruised sternum, but the team has upgraded Murray from probable to available. Murray has a limited role with the Trail Blazers, averaging 4.6 points and 2.5 rebounds across 13.7 minutes. Dallas allows the third-fewest bench points […]

Jerami Grant Back In Action Sunday

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (knee) will return from a two-game absence against Dallas on Sunday. The team has upgraded him to available after initially listing Grant as questionable for the game with a left knee sprain, which has bothered him for a bit. The Trail Blazers continue to roll with a thin lineup, […]

Scoot Henderson Will Not Play Against Mavericks

Portland Trail Blazers point guard Scoot Henderson (quadriceps) will miss Sunday's contest against Dallas. He has been available for only one of the previous five games and won't return to action on Sunday after Portland initially listed Henderson as questionable for the game. Dalano Banton will continue to benefit from Henderson's absence, though his performances […]

Klay Thompson Out For Fourth Straight Game

Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Klay Thompson (foot) will continue to sit against Portland on Sunday, missing a fourth straight game. The former All-Star is struggling to shake off a left foot injury. Luka Doncic (wrist) will be back on Sunday, but Kyrie Irving (shoulder), Dereck Lively II (knee), and Naji Marshall (illness) join Thompson on the […]

Dereck Lively II Unavailable Sunday

Dallas Mavericks center Dereck Lively II (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Portland. He injured his right knee in Saturday's matchup versus Utah. Due to Lively II's absence, Daniel Gafford gets a chance to join the first unit, with Maxi Kleber working as the backup big. Portland struggles to rebound the ball, […]

Naji Marshall Will Not Play Sunday

Dallas Mavericks forward Naji Marshall (illness) will miss his first game of the season on Sunday versus Portland. He continues to battle an illness, which limited Marshall to 13 minutes against Utah on Saturday. Marshall had scored 20-plus points in four consecutive games before settling for only three points in Saturday's game. He's put in […]

Luka Doncic Returns To Action Sunday

Dallas Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic (wrist) will return to the lineup for Sunday's matchup against Portland. The team has upgraded Doncic from questionable to available, marking the end of a five-game absence for the Slovenian superstar. Kyrie Irving (shoulder) will exit the lineup on Sunday, meaning this should fully be the Doncic show. Only […]

DeMar DeRozan Returns To Kings Lineup Sunday

Sacramento Kings forward DeMar DeRozan (back) will return to work on Sunday versus San Antonio. He's missed a couple of games due to lower back inflammation. New signing Jae Crowder made a pair of starts during DeRozan's absence and is set to land on the bench now. DeRozan's debut campaign in Sacramento has gone well, […]

Kyrie Irving Ruled Out Sunday

Dallas Mavericks guard Kyrie Irving (shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against Portland. The veteran star will sit out his second game of the season. Irving has carried a big workload lately and almost posted a 30-point double-double on Saturday versus Utah. Dallas hopes to get Luka Doncic (wrist) back on Sunday, which […]

Kyle Filipowski Remains Out Versus Lakers

Utah Jazz forward/center Kyle Filipowski (leg) will miss a fifth consecutive game on Sunday against the Lakers. He continues to nurse a left leg injury. Filipowski had a decent run as a starter before getting sidelined and might continue to make noise once he's back. John Collins and Walker Kessler will once again do the […]

Jordan Clarkson Remains On The Shelf Sunday

Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against the Lakers. He'll be sitting out a fourth consecutive game. Clarkson has featured just once since Nov. 19 due to a foot problem. With him unavailable, Johnny Juzang and Isaiah Collier get to play more, but neither player has been a […]

Cam Reddish Absent On Sunday

Los Angeles Lakers guard/forward Cam Reddish (illness) will not suit up for Sunday's meeting with Utah. He was a late addition to the injury report with an illness and hasn't been cleared to play. Reddish has finished three consecutive games scoreless, so he shouldn't be a big loss for the Lakers. However, the 25-year-old has […]

Anthony Davis Ready To Face Jazz

Los Angeles Lakers forward/center Anthony Davis (foot) will play on Sunday against Utah. The Lakers star has been upgraded from probable to available. Davis has enjoyed a great campaign thus far and should crush it in Sunday's matchup, as the Jazz allow the most fantasy points in the league to opposing centers. In the first […]

Austin Reaves Unavailable Sunday

Los Angeles Lakers guard Austin Reaves (pelvis) will miss his first game of the season on Sunday against Utah. He suffered a pelvic contusion in Friday's contest versus Oklahoma City, and the team has downgraded Reaves from questionable to out. Reaves' absence opens up over 30 minutes in the rotation and a starting position, which […]

D'Angelo Russell Sits Out Sunday's Game

Los Angeles Lakers point guard D'Angelo Russell (illness) will not be available for Sunday's game against Utah. An illness has taken Russell out of the lineup for the first time this season. The former All-Star has been leading the Lakers bench in recent weeks, averaging 12.1 points in 24.6 minutes. Gabe Vincent's and Max Christie's […]

Austin Reaves Tagged As Questionable For Sunday

Los Angeles Lakers guard Austin Reaves (pelvis) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Utah Jazz. He briefly exited on Friday due to this issue and is now questionable to suit up because of it on Sunday. It's uncertain how serious of an issue this is, but the Lakers might take the […]

Anthony Davis Likely To Play On Sunday

Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (foot) is expected to suit up for Sunday's game against the Utah Jazz. The big man continues to deal with a lingering foot issue, but remains listed as probable for this game. Possibly, Davis sees less minutes if this game gets out of hand quickly. The Lakers would likely […]
