Seth Curry Listed As Probable Against Boston

Philadelphia 76ers guard Seth Curry is listed as probable to play Friday night against the Boston Celtics. Curry missed Wednesday against Boston despite not being listed on the injury report. The team reported Curry's conditioning was not up to speed after sitting due to COVID-19, which explains the unexpected absence. Curry will likely rejoin the starting […]

LeBron James And Anthony Davis Starting Thursday

Los Angeles Lakers guard/forward LeBron James (ankle) and forward/center Anthony Davis (ankle) are playing and starting Thursday against the Milwaukee Bucks. Both James and Davis have been listed on most, if not all, injury reports this season, but have been in no real danger of missing the contests. Expect James and Davis to see their […]

Cody Zeller Expected To Make Return Friday

Charlotte Hornets center Cody Zeller (probable) is expected to play Friday night against the Chicago Bulls. Zeller fractured his left hand in the first game of the season and has been out ever since.

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/21/21): NBA DFS Lineups

Happy Thursday, Rotoballers! As is the case with most Thursdays, the slate is a little smaller than usual. Three games tip-off tonight, and five of the six teams are currently in the playoffs. Surprisingly, it's the New Orleans Pelicans and not the New York Knicks sitting on the outside looking in, but that could all […]

De'Andre Hunter And Cam Reddish Questionable Friday Night

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (knee) and guard Cam Reddish (knee) are both questionable Friday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Both Hunter and Reddish missed Wednesday's win over the Detroit Pistons with knee issues and are probably closer to game-time decisions for Friday. If they both sit again, Kevin Huerter and Solomon Hill will likely get […]

FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (1/21/21): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

We have just a three-game slate on tap Thursday night, which naturally makes it all the more challenging to choose wisely and find at least a handful of plays that can help us differentiate in tournaments. Fortunately, there are no major injuries to be concerned with, as the designations attached to LeBron James and Anthony […]

Danilo Gallinari Listed As Doubtful Friday

Atlanta Hawks forward Danilo Gallinari (ankle) is doubtful and not expected to play Friday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Gallinari has had a rough start to his Atlanta campaign and only played in two games this year while dealing with an ankle injury.

Alec Burks Probable To Play Thursday

New York Knicks guard Alec Burks (ankle) is listed as probable Thursday night against the Golden State Warriors. Burks has been out a few weeks after dealing with an ankle sprain, but stated he feels great and is expected to play. The tail end of his absences were due to conditioning so Burks should not […]

Derrick Favors Probable On Thursday

Utah Jazz forward Derrick Favors (knee) is listed as probable for Thursday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. He is dealing with right knee soreness, but it sounds like Favors can play through the issue. Favors played 16 minutes on Tuesday and should see a similar workload here. He doesn't have much upside in standard […]

Wendell Carter Jr. Doubtful For Friday

Chicago Bulls center Wendell Carter Jr. (thigh) is listed as doubtful for Friday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. He suffered a bruised thigh on Wednesday and it doesn't sound like he'll be able to play through it. His absence could mean more minutes for Lauri Markkanen at the center spot. Although, Daniel Gafford would be […]

Patrick Williams Questionable For Friday

Chicago Bulls forward Patrick Williams (hip) was able to go through practice on Thursday. It sounds like he is trending in the right direction, but should still be considered questionable for Friday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Garrett Temple (ankle) would be in line for another start, assuming Williams is out. Both Denzel Valentine and […]

Garrett Temple Returns To Practice

Chicago Bulls guard Garrett Temple (ankle) was able to fully participate in Thursday's practice. He was limited on Wednesday, but it sounds like Temple is trending in the right direction. Patrick Williams (hip) is currently listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Temple could be in line for another start and hold […]

Kemba Walker To See More Minutes Friday

Boston Celtics guard Kemba Walker will have his minutes raised for Friday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. The team continues to monitor Walker, but will extend his minutes to 25-28 for this game, according to head coach Brad Stevens. Walker is slowly working his way back up and that is great news for fantasy managers. […]

Michael Porter Jr. Has Rejoined Team

Denver Nuggets forward Michael Porter Jr. has finally rejoined his teammates after being in the NBA's health and safety protocols due to COVID-19. As of right now, Porter is considered questionable for Friday's game against the Phoenix Suns. He's expected to be under a minutes limit since he has not taken the court in weeks. Will […]

Tyler Herro Could Return On Friday

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (neck) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He has missed each of the last three games due to neck spasms. Herro was able to go through practice on Thursday without any issues, so hopefully he can play on Friday. Otherwise, Goran Dragic would continue seeing […]

Christian Wood Ruled Out For Friday

Houston Rockets center Christian Wood (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Detroit Pistons. He sprained his ankle on Wednesday and it sounds like the injury has got worse overnight. Head coach Stephen Silas has his doubts about Wood suiting up for either of the back-to-back contests this weekend. DeMarcus Cousins will […]

Michael Carter-Williams Could Play Friday

Orlando Magic guard Michael Carter-Williams (foot) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers. He hasn't played since early January due to a nagging foot issue. Although, Carter-Williams has been able to go through some non-contact work during practices. Regardless of when he returns, rookie Cole Anthony has looked more impressive and […]

Oubre compiled 16 points, nine rebounds, two triples, two steals, and a block in 31 minutes. The 25-year-old impressively didn't have a single turnover-which helped to mask his poor shooting from the field for managers in category […]

Victor Oladipo Posts Solid Line Against Suns

He scored 22 points to go along with six assists, five rebounds, three steals and a block. He hit 7-for-7 from the line, but struggled from the field, going 7-for-22.

San Antonio Spurs guard Dejounte Murray poured in 22 points with six boards, three assists, two steals, and a triple in a 121-99 blowout loss to Golden State. Murray's struggles from beyond the arc continued Wednesday, as he shot just 1 of 6 from that range. However, the 24-year-old is on pace for career-highs in […]

Stephen Curry Records Double-Double In Blowout Win

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry scored 26 points with 11 rebounds, seven assists, and four triples in a 121-99 win over the Spurs.
