Fantasy Basketball Mid-Week Streamers for Week 19

Our one and only, Milos Zvekic broke down the Week 19 streamers earlier this week and will continue to do so all season long. I will be chiming in mid-week to add some sprinkles and frosting onto the beautifully baked Zvekic cake. For the rest of Week 11 (Thursday to Sunday), there are 12 teams with […]

Delon Wright Has Another Impressive Outing As Starter

Sacramento Kings point guard Delon Wright, who crushed it as a starter in Tuesday's victory over OKC, did even better in Wednesday's winning effort against the Pacers, finishing with 23 points, seven rebounds, six assists, six steals and one block. He shot 8-for-14 from the field with a 3-for-5 effort from downtown and a 4-for-4 […]

Phoenix Suns shooting guard Devin Booker had no trouble extending his streak with 30-point games to four consecutive outings on Wednesday against Atlanta, shooting 11-for-20 from the field and 7-for-8 at the line with a 1-for-2 record from deep. Mikal Bridges (18) was the only other Sun to get into double figures as Phoenix went […]

Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela came through with his 45th double-double of the season in Wednesday's big win over the Suns, leading the team with 18 points on 8-for-11 shooting and grabbing 12 rebounds. He also swatted away two shots. Capela is the league's leading rebounder, and it's not even close with him averaging 14.4 […]

Trae Young Has Second Consecutive Double-Double Night

Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young picked up a double-double in Wednesday's 135-103 victory versus Phoenix, notching 16 points on 6-for-12 shooting with 12 assists. He missed all three attempts from downtown but was a perfect 4-for-4 at the foul line. Young added two rebounds and one steal to his tally with one turnover in […]

He went 4-for-10 from downtown and had eight rebounds with two assists and one steal. Despite being the leading scorer, Love finished the game with a […]

Jusuf Nurkic Shines With Double-Double, Four Blocks

Portland Trail Blazers center Jusuf Nurkic needed only 21 minutes of action to put together a good line against Cleveland on Wednesday, finishing a 141-105 win with 15 points, 11 rebounds, four blocks and three assists.

Hamidou Diallo Won’t Play On Thursday Evening

Detroit Pistons guard Hamidou Diallo (personal) won't be in the lineup on Thursday against the Grizzlies. The 22-year-old will join the plethora of players, including Jerami Grant (knee), Josh Jackson (mouth), and Cory Joseph (ankle), who also won't be available against Memphis. Without Diallo, Frank Jackson, Sekou Doumbouya, Killian Hayes, Isaiah Stewart, and Saddiq Bey […]

Chris Boucher Out Against Washington As Expected

Toronto Raptors forward/center Chris Boucher (knee) will not play on Thursday against Washington. This isn't a surprise as the big man is currently dealing with an MCL sprain in his left knee. With the team likely to not make any more noise this year, Boucher may be done for the rest of the season. Khem […]

OG Anunoby Doubtful Against Wizards

Toronto Raptors forward OG Anunoby (calf) is doubtful for Thursday's clash with the Wizards. The 23-year-old could miss his third straight contest as he deals with a lingering left calf strain. Although Kyle Lowry, Fred VanVleet, and Pascal Siakam should pick up some of the pieces, Gary Trent Jr. (leg) should be viewed as a […]

Maxi Kleber Out Against The Nets On Thursday

Dallas Mavericks center Maxi Kleber (Achilles) will not play on Thursday against the Nets. The big man sat out during Tuesday's win over the Heat due to right Achilles soreness, opening the door for Willie Cauley-Stein to get the start. With Kristaps Porzingis (knee) also out against Brooklyn, Dwight Powell should be the one to […]

Kristaps Porzingis Out Again

Dallas Mavericks forward Kristaps Porzingis (knee) is out again on Thursday against the Brooklyn Nets. The former first-round pick has missed his previous three games while dealing with yet another bout of soreness in his right knee. With Maxi Kleber (Achilles) also on the shelf, Dwight Powell may be the biggest beneficiary, with the 29-year-old […]

Mo Bamba Posts Second Straight Double-Double

Orlando Magic center Mo Bamba posted 19 points, 15 rebounds, one assist, four blocks, and three steals in 31 minutes during Wednesday's loss to the Celtics. Bamba now has at least 15 points and 11 boards in three of the past four games and has quietly put up some good numbers recently as the Magic […]

Zach LaVine Officially Probable Against Hornets

Chicago Bulls Zach LaVine is expected to return on Thursday evening against the Hornets. Although there were rumblings he would be back, his designation on the latest injury report all but confirms he will be in the lineup against Charlotte. The 26-year-old has missed the team's previous 11 games due to health and safety protocols, […]

Nikola Vucevic Upgraded For Thursday Night

Chicago Bulls center Nikola Vucevic (hip) has been upgraded to probable ahead of Thursday's matchup against the Charlotte Hornets. The veteran has missed his previous two games while dealing with tightness in his right Adductor. With Vucevic back in the lineup, Daniel Theis' fantasy stock should drop considerably.

Jayson Tatum Goes For 27 Points Against Orlando

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum compiled 27 points, seven rebounds, three assists, two blocks, and two steals in 31 minutes during Wednesday's win over the Magic. Tatum has been on an absolute roll in the recent games, posting at least 27 points in five of the past six games and getting at least 33 points […]

Miles Bridges Out As Expected Against Chicago

Charlotte Hornets forward Miles Bridges will miss another week or two while adhering to the league's health and safety protocols surrounding COVID-19. With the team also down Devonte' Graham (ankle), Gordon Hayward (foot), and Cody Martin (ankle), Caleb Martin, Brad Wanamaker, and Jalen McDaniels should all see additional run in a favorable matchup against the […]

Kemba Walker Drops 32 Points Against Magic

Boston Celtics guard Kemba Walker finished with 32 points, three rebounds, four assists, and one steal in 28 minutes during Wednesday's blowout win over Orlando. Walker did excellent after returning from a four-game absence due to an oblique injury. The guard is averaging 18.2 points per game and always has the chance to post above […]

Cody Martin Out Against Chicago

Charlotte Hornets guard Cody Martin (ankle) is listed as out against the Bulls. The 25-year-old will now miss his second straight outing after suffering a sprained left ankle. He is likely to miss some more games moving ahead, and with Miles Bridges also out due to health and safety protocols, Malik Monk and Brad Wanamaker […]

Devonte’ Graham Unlikely To Return On Thursday

Charlotte Hornets guard Devonte' Graham (knee) is unlikely to play during Thursday's contest against Chicago. Graham sat out on Tuesday against Detroit due to discomfort in his right knee, and it now appears he's on track to miss another one. Without him in the mix, Lonzo Ball and Terry Rozier should get plenty of minutes […]

Nikola Jokic Available Against Knicks

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (toe) will play on Wednesday against the Knicks. Jokic made an appearance on the latest injury report due to soreness in his right toe. However, it doesn't appear severe enough for him to sit in a critical matchup against New York.

Grayson Allen Exits Early On Wednesday

Memphis Grizzlies guard Grayson Allen (abdominal) has been ruled out for the rest of Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He was only able to play six minutes before heading to the sideline. Memphis plays again on Thursday, so fantasy managers will have to wait and see. De'Anthony Melton and Desmond Bone would be asked […]

LeBron James Might Play Friday

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. It was previously reported that James would miss Friday's game as well, but that's not the case. Head coach Frank Vogel has not ruled out James for Friday's contest and the team continues to list him […]

Jaylen Brown Could Return Friday

Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown (ankle) could rejoin the team for Friday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He missed Wednesday's contest, but is reportedly day-to-day, so the team is hopeful he'll be ready to play soon. Aaron Nesmith has been knocking down everything from beyond the arc. He'll be a reliable streaming option until Brown […]

OG Anunoby Ruled Out Thursday

Toronto Raptors forward OG Anunoby (calf) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Washington Wizards. This is frustrating for fantasy managers since Anunoby was playing well before the injury. However, it doesn't appear the Raptors have any intentions of letting Anunoby back on the court this season. Stanley Johnson has been getting more […]

Brandon Ingram Sidelined On Friday

New Orleans Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. It is not good news that Ingram is being ruled out this far in advance. Despite that, the team is listing him as day-to-day, which is good news for fantasy managers. The Pelicans only have six games […]
