Desmond Bane, De'Anthony Melton Will Miss Tuesday’s Contest
Memphis Grizzlies shooting guard/small forward Desmond Bane (personal) and point/shooting guard De'Anthony Melton (shoulder) have been ruled out for Tuesday's game against New Orleans. Bane is missing his third straight outing due to personal reasons, while Melton remains out for the fifth consecutive contest due to a sore left shoulder. Grayson Allen has been the […]

Taurean Prince Ruled Out For Monday’s Game
Cleveland Cavaliers small/power forward Taurean Prince (ankle) will not suit up for Monday's contest against the Warriors after attempting to work through an ankle ailment prior to tip-off. Cedi Osman will enter the starting five in Prince's place and see significant DFS upside, especially with Andre Drummond (team decision) also unavailable. Prince had entered the […]

Terance Mann, Marcus Morris Join Starting Five Monday
The Los Angeles Clippers will have a new-look starting lineup for Monday's contest against Miami due to four absences to traditional starters. Lou Williams figures to be the primary offensive threat, but the duo of Terance Mann and Marcus Morris are making rare starts and can be seen as strong DFS plays in their own […]

Monte Morris Picks Up Questionable Tag For Tuesday
Denver Nuggets point guard Monte Morris (shoulder) has been deemed questionable to play in Tuesday's game versus the Celtics due to a sprained right shoulder. Morris is yet to miss a game this season, having drawn his third start of the year Sunday. His steady role in the offense has led him to scoring in […]

Philadelphia Scratches Joel Embiid Prior To Tip-Off
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (back) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Jazz despite having been cleared to play earlier in the day. Battling back tightness, Embiid will now cede way to Mike Scott, who figures to see a dramatic increase in DFS appeal with the added minutes and role. When healthy, […]

Paul Millsap, Will Barton Headline Absent Nuggets Tuesday
The Denver Nuggets will be without four key contributors for Tuesday's game versus Boston, including power forward Paul Millsap (knee) and shooting guard/small forward Will Barton (personal). Gary Harris (adductor) and P.J. Dozier (hamstring) will join them, leaving the team severely short-handed on the wing, which paves the way for Michael Porter Jr. to see […]

DeAndre Jordan Rejoins Lineup Monday
Brooklyn Nets center DeAndre Jordan (personal) is back in the mix for Monday's contest versus the Kings following a one-game absence due to personal reasons. Jordan's return knocks Jeff Green's fantasy intrigue down a peg, with the team's starting center likely to reprise his traditional 20-22-minute role. Sacramento has scuffled mightily at slowing opposing centers […]

Nicolas Batum Ruled Out For Monday’s Contest
Los Angeles Clippers small/power forward Nicolas Batum (migraine) will miss Monday's game against the Heat due to a migraine. The absence marks just the second of the year for Batum, which leaves L.A. without four of their regular starters, including Kawhi Leonard (leg), Paul George (toe), and Patrick Beverley (rest). Marcus Morris and Patrick Patterson […]

D'Angelo Russell Remains Unavailable Tuesday
Minnesota Timberwolves point/shooting guard D'Angelo Russell (leg) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game versus the Lakers, marking his fourth straight absence due to a sore left leg. Ricky Rubio will presumably continue to hold down the starting PG spot for Minnesota in Russell's absence, while Jordan McLaughlin gets increased run with the second unit. […]

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Will Miss Fourth Straight Game Tuesday
Oklahoma City Thunder point/shooting guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's contest against Portland, although head coach Mark Daigneault has indicated that a return may not be far off. Gilgeous-Alexander is in the midst of a potential All-Star season, averaging 22.6 points, 6.5 assists, and 5.5 rebounds per contest, all while shooting […]

Kawhi Leonard, Patrick Beverley Will Miss Monday’s Contest
Los Angeles Clippers small forward Kawhi Leonard (leg) and point guard Patrick Beverley (rest) have been ruled out for Monday's game versus the Heat. Leonard's absence due to a left leg contusion marks his second straight outing on the sidelines, joining Paul George (toe) as L.A. will have to make up for the departure of […]

Patrick Williams Heads To Locker Room Monday
Chicago Bulls forward Patrick Williams (leg) headed to the locker room Monday against the Indiana Pacers. Williams had his leg inadvertently knocked into by Pacers guard/forward Jeremy Lamb, but was able to walk off on his own power. As for now, Williams is likely questionable to return, but may take the rest of the night […]

Joel Embiid Good To Go Against Jazz
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (back) is starting Monday against the Utah Jazz. Embiid has been dealing with back tightness and was questionable, but will play through the ailment against Rudy Gobert and the top team in the league. The Jazz allow the sixth-least amount of points to opposing centers while holding them to just […]

T.J. Warren Back With Team Monday
Indiana Pacers forward T. J. Warren (foot) is back with the team on Monday for the first time since undergoing successful surgery on his foot back on January 5th. Warren is still out indefinitely and does not have any timetable on his return, but this is a big step in his recovery. The next step […]

Kyle Kuzma Prime For Bigger Role With Anthony Davis Out
Los Angeles Lakers forward/center Anthony Davis (Achilles) re-aggravated his Achilles tendonitis on Sunday against the Denver Nuggets and will be re-evaluated in about two-to-three weeks. This is a huge blow for Davis managers who are likely already disappointed with Davis's lack of elite production this season. With this news, Kyle Kuzma should be added across […]

Maurice Harkless Practices In Full Sunday
Miami Heat forward Maurice Harkless (thigh) went through his first full practice since suffering a thigh injury on January 23rd. Harkless was cleared to return last Thursday against the Houston Rockets, but did not play in that game or Saturday against the Utah Jazz. This was likely due to Harkless getting back to speed and […]

Marvin Bagley III, Richaun Holmes Questionable Monday
Sacramento Kings forward Marvin Bagley III (calf) and forward/center Richaun Holmes (knee) are questionable to play Monday against the Brooklyn Nets. Bagley has already missed two games with the injury, but could make his return Monday if all goes well in shootaround. On the other hand, Holmes is dealing with some knee soreness on the […]
