New York Adds Taj Gibson To Fold, Releases Omari Spellman

The New York Knicks and power forward/center Taj Gibson have agreed to a reunion, bringing the veteran back into the fold, where he is likely to join the Knicks' bench depth. In order to make room on the roster, the Knicks waived Omari Spellman, who was yet to appear in a game this year due […]

De'Aaron Fox, Richaun Holmes Unable To Practice Thursday

Sacramento Kings point guard De'Aaron Fox (hamstring) and power forward/center Richaun Holmes (ankle) were held out of practice Thursday while dealing with respective injuries. Head coach Luke Walton was "hopeful" that he'd have both players back in the lineup for Friday's game against the Raptors, although neither can be fully relied upon heading into the […]

Pat Connaughton Will Miss Friday’s Contest With Groin Strain

Milwaukee Bucks small forward Pat Connaughton (groin) has been listed as out for Friday's game versus Utah due to a sore left groin. The absence is set to be Connaughton's third straight outing on the sidelines, paving the way for Jordan Nwora to continue snagging a handful of minutes as a reserve. Connaughton had been […]

Collin Sexton, Damyean Dotson On Track To Play Thursday

The Cleveland Cavaliers will have point/shooting guard Collin Sexton (ankle) and shooting guard/small forward Damyean Dotson (ankle) on the floor for Thursday's contest, barring a last-second issue, per head coach J.B. Bickerstaff. The duo were deemed questionable earlier in the day, which would have dealt significant blows to an already decimated backcourt heading into Thursday's […]

Boston Lists Jeff Teague As Questionable To Play Friday

Boston Celtics point guard Jeff Teague (ankle) has been battling a sprained left ankle that has kept him out of the team's two most recent contests, but he has been upgraded to questionable for Friday's game against the Wizards. With Marcus Smart back in the fold, he has taken over full-time PG duties, while Payton […]

Tristan Thompson Headlines Quartet Questionable For Friday

Boston Celtics center Tristan Thompson is one of four Celtics who have been deemed questionable to play in Friday's game versus Washington due to the league's COVID-19 protocols. Joining Thompson on the fence of taking the floor are point guard Carsen Edwards, center Robert Williams III and small/power forward Grant Williams. If all of the quartet is […]

Joe Ingles Earns Questionable Tag For Friday’s Game

Utah Jazz small forward Joe Ingles (Achilles) has been listed as questionable to suit up for Friday's contest versus the Bucks as he battles a sore right Achilles tendon. Ingles is coming off of a season-high 16-point performance Wednesday, in which he knocked down a quartet of triples. Traditionally one of the most consistent members […]

Josh Jackson Likely To Return For Friday’s Game

Detroit Pistons shooting guard/small forward Josh Jackson (ankle) has been deemed probable to get back on the floor for Friday's contest against Phoenix. Jackson has missed the past two games due to an ankle ailment, but reportedly was close to suiting up Wednesday. Having cracked the starting five, Jackson enters a matchup versus the team […]

Seth Curry Unavailable To Play In Thursday’s Contest

Philadelphia 76ers shooting guard Seth Curry (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game versus Brooklyn due to left ankle soreness. Curry dropped a season-high 28 points just a day prior against the Wizards, continuing his strong start to his first year in Philadelphia, where he has shot 59.5 percent from behind the arc. With […]

Kyrie Irving Will Miss Thursday’s Game

Brooklyn Nets point guard Kyrie Irving (personal) has been deemed out for Thursday's contest against the 76ers due to personal reasons. The absence of Irving will leave Brooklyn strapped for star power, while Kevin Durant remains in quarantine under the league's health and safety protocols. Caris Levert is in line for a significant increase in […]

Rodney Hood Possibly Sidelined Versus 'Wolves

Portland Trail Blazers forward Rodney Hood (quad) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Gary Trent Jr. and Anfernee Simons have been asked to pick up the slack since Hood has been out since the beginning of the month. Trent has decent streaming appeal without Hood available, but both would be […]

Evan Fournier Could Sit Out On Friday

Orlando Magic guard Evan Fournier (back) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Houston Rockets. He has missed a week of action due to back spasms, but will hopefully return soon. The Magic desperately need him back with Markelle Fultz (knee) done for the season and Michael Carter-Williams (foot) still sidelined. Gary Clark […]

J.J. Redick Misses Thursday's Practice

New Orleans Pelicans guard J.J. Redick (knee) was unable to participate in Thursday's practice, according to head coach Stan Van Gundy. He suffered a right knee contusion during Wednesday's loss. It sounds like Redick is feeling better, but it's unclear if he'll suit up for Friday's game. Josh Hart would have solid streaming appeal on […]

Collin Sexton Questionable On Thursday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Collin Sexton (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He tweaked his ankle during Wednesday's loss to the Orlando Magic. The Cavs are already without Darius Garland (shoulder), so losing Sexton would be a significant blow to the team. Cedi Osman and Isaac Okoro would be asked […]

Damyean Dotson Might Play Versus Memphis

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Damyean Dotson (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He played 16 minutes off the bench on Wednesday, but the return of Isaac Okoro has hurt Dotson's value. Honestly, it's tough to imagine Dotson having basically any fantasy value while Okoro is healthy.

Reggie Bullock, Kevin Knox II Probable For Friday

New York Knicks guard Reggie Bullock (knee) and forward Kevin Knox II (knee) are listed as probable for Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Both players were able to return during Wednesday's win over the Utah Jazz. They filled their normal roles, but neither player has much fantasy appeal. Both of them could be […]

Christian Wood Could Miss Another Game

Houston Rockets center Christian Wood (knee) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Orlando Magic. He sat out of Wednesday's game and continues to deal with left knee soreness. His absence would mean more playing time for DeMarcus Cousins. He played well without Wood available on Wednesday, so Cousins would be an appealing […]

Danuel House Jr. Ruled Out For Friday

Houston Rockets forward Danuel House Jr. (back) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Orlando Magic. This will be the third game that House has missed due to injury, so he has been a frustrating player to roster in the early part of the season. David Nwaba, Eric Gordon and Sterling Brown will […]

Darius Garland Sitting Out Against Memphis

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Darius Garland (shoulder) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. On Wednesday, it was reported that Garland could miss a week or possibly more time. It sounds like the team plans to re-evaluate him daily and go from there. Cedi Osman, Damyean Dotson (ankle), and Collin Sexton (ankle) […]

Nerlens Noel Might Return On Friday

New York Knicks center Nerlens Noel (ankle, knee) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Noel has been sidelined since Jan. 2 due to multiple nagging injuries. The Knicks could certainly use Noel back in the rotation, but he won't provide much fantasy value. His return would likely mean less […]

Michael Porter Jr. Remains Out Thursday

Denver Nuggets forward Michael Porter Jr. (rest) will remain sidelined for Thursday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. He remains away from the team due to health and safety protocols. The team was hopeful that he'd suit up here, but Porter will miss at least one more game. Will Barton will be the biggest winner here […]

Derrick Rose Able To Practice On Thursday

Detroit Pistons guard Derrick Rose (knee) was able to suit up for Thursday's practice. He injured his knee on Wednesday and was unable to finish the game. The fact Rose was able to return to practice here is good news. It's unclear whether or not Rose will suit up against the Phoenix Suns on Friday. […]

Russell Westbrook Could Sit On Friday

Washington Wizards guard Russell Westbrook (finger) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Boston Celtics. He suffered a dislocated finger during Wednesday's contest, so there's a chance he sits out the first game of the back-to-back set. Normally, Westbrook sits the first game of two anyway, so it wouldn't be shocking if the […]

NBA DFS Prop Picks for Thursday (1/7/21) - Monkey Knife Fight

There are five games in the NBA tonight which means lots of chances to play and win with Monkey Knife Fight. It has been an interesting season so far. The league leader in assists per game is a center, Nikola Jokic, and there are five players scoring more than 27 points per game. How many […]

Wendell Carter Jr. Tallies Career-High 17 Rebounds

Chicago Bulls center Wendell Carter Jr. worked his socks off in Wednesday's losing effort against Sacramento, finishing with a career-high 17 rebounds. He collected his third double-double of the season by adding 11 points on 4-for-9 shooting. Carter Jr. also handed out four assists. The 21-year-old center has been quite unproductive since the turn of […]

Coby White Notches Career-High 36 Points

Chicago Bulls point guard Coby White dropped bombs from all over the place in Wednesday's loss to Sacramento, shooting 15-for-23 from the field en route to a career-high 36 points. His backcourt partner Zach LaVine also had a big game with 32 points on 13-for-24 shooting. White had four treys and he handed out seven […]

Richaun Holmes Scores Team-High 24 Points

Sacramento Kings forward/center Richaun Holmes led the way with a team-high 24 points in Wednesday's 128-124 win over Chicago, adding eight rebounds, five assists, and one steal. Marvin Bagley III had 21 points with 12 rebounds and Harrison Barnes notched 20 points as the Kings managed to carve out a victory despite De'Aaron Fox (hamstring) […]

John Collins Scores Team-High 23 Points

Atlanta Hawks power forward John Collins led the team's offense in Wednesday's meeting with the Hornets, finishing a 102-94 loss with a team-high 23 points on 9-for-16 shooting. He added 11 rebounds to record his third double-double of the season while going 5-for-7 at the line. Clint Capela also had a big game on the […]

LaMelo Ball Registers Nice 16-8-5 Line

Charlotte Hornets point guard LaMelo Ball notched 16 points, eight rebounds, and five assists during a nice all-around performance in Wednesday's win over Atlanta. He shot 6-for-12 from the field and 2-for-5 from three-point range, while coughing up the ball just once in 24 minutes off the bench. Ball has yet to start an NBA […]

Gordon Hayward Scores Career-High 44 Points

Charlotte Hornets small forward Gordon Hayward produced a huge performance in Wednesday's matchup against Atlanta, outscoring the Hawks in the opening quarter 12-11 and finishing with a career-high 44 points. He shot 15-for-25 from the field and 4-for-9 from downtown, while going 10-for-12 at the charity stripe. Hayward, whose previous best was 39 points, added […]
