Kyle Lowry Will Suit Up Monday Versus Nets

Miami Heat guard Kyle Lowry (hand) was originally listed as doubtful due to a left hand sprain but it seems like he's good enough to play since the team has officially upgraded him to active on Monday.

Jimmy Butler Will Return on Monday

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (toe) has been upgraded from questionable to available on Monday and will play his first game since December 30. He's actually only played one game since December 18 due to the right-toe MP joint sprain he's been dealing with, so fantasy managers will welcome back a player of his caliber […]

We kick off a huge week in the Association with the annual MLK slate - 11 games on a Monday! The NBA has long embraced MLK Day and has used it both to do community outreach and to promote its product. While I love the big Monday slate, it does create some inequity in the […]

Robert Covington Remains Sidelined Monday

Philadelphia 76ers forward Robert Covington (knee) won't make his return from injury Monday against Houston. The former Rocket is nursing left knee inflammation and is forced to sit for a sixth consecutive game. Philadelphia also has a matchup against Denver coming up on Tuesday, meaning Covington's absence could quickly extend for another game. However, the […]

Mo Bamba Doubtful For Monday's Game

Philadelphia 76ers center Mo Bamba (knee) is listed as doubtful for Monday's clash against Houston. The 25-year-old put in an impressive performance against Sacramento on Friday, but he's now dealing with fat pad impingement on his right knee and will likely miss Monday's action.

Jaren Jackson Jr. Questionable For Clash With Warriors

Memphis Grizzlies forward/center Jaren Jackson Jr. (knee) is considered questionable for Monday's matchup against Golden State.

Jaylen Brown Could Miss Monday's Action

Boston Celtics guard/forward Jaylen Brown (knee) is back on the injury report ahead of Monday's clash with Toronto. He's considered questionable for the contest due to right knee hyperextension.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Questionable Monday

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (knee) is questionable to play against the Lakers on Monday. The Thunder star has sprained his right knee and could be absent for the first time this season.

Philadelphia 76ers guard De'Anthony Melton (back) has already been ruled out for the team's game against the Houston Rockets on Monday despite playing the last two games on a minutes restriction.

Los Angeles Lakers forward Cam Reddish (knee) has been ruled out again for Monday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
