Jamal Murray is Ruled Out for Tuesday

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. It sounds like Murray is going to be sidelined for the foreseeable future.

James Harden Unlikely to Play on Monday

Houston Rockets guard James Harden (thigh) is unlikely to suit up for Monday's game against the Utah Jazz. The Rockets would be thin with Russell Westbrook (rest) already ruled out for Monday.

Kyrie Irving Not With Team Sunday

Brooklyn Nets point guard Kyrie Irving (personal) will not play against the New York Knicks on Sunday. Irving was very close with NBA legend Kobe Bryant and most likely left the team to grieve the horrible news we received today surrounding Bryant. With Irving out, Spencer Dinwiddie will most likely reenter the starting lineup and […]

Svi Mykhailiuk (SG, DET): Week 15 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add In 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 14% of leagues ANALYSIS: Talk about a walking bucket. Who would have thought? The Pistons are on the verge of a full rebuilding effort and Svi might be one of the key pieces going forward. At least that is what he's showing these days at just 22 […]

Reggie Jackson (PG/SG, DET): Week 15 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add In 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 35% of leagues ANALYSIS: It's about damn time. Finally, after three months off basketball courts, Reggie Jackson made it back to one. It happened on Jan. 22 and Jackson seemed to not have lost any single bit of his hoops knowledge. On just 19 minutes of playing […]

Daniel Theis (PF/C, BOS): Week 15 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add In 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 26% of leagues ANALYSIS: Remember when Joel Anthony was the unsuspected starting center of The Heatles back in the day? Well, that is Daniel Theis, only in Boston and much better. Theis has started in all games he's played except one (the first of the season), and […]

Marquese Chriss (PF/C, GSW): Week 15 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add In 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 5% of leagues ANALYSIS: After three seasons and a half in the league, it is fair to say Marquese Chriss has been a bust. He is a former 8th-overall draftee but he has far from lived up to the expectations, though the current version of Chriss is […]

Trevor Ariza (SG/SF, POR): Week 15 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add In 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 31% of leagues ANALYSIS: Had I to tell, I'd say that Trevor Ariza's ownership will only go up and up during the next few days and weeks. Portland traded for the veteran just a few days ago and in his lone game with the franchise up to […]

Markieff Morris (PF/C, DET): Week 15 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add In 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 15% of leagues ANALYSIS: Welcome to the ultimate what-if entry of this week's NBA waiver wire pickups!
