Anthony Davis Will Play on Monday

Los Angeles Lakers forward/center Anthony Davis (tailbone) will play in Monday's game against the Boston Celtics. He wasn't able to practice on Sunday, but will return from a five game absence here. He could be somewhat limited, but will remain a strong DFS choice for Monday's slate. Kyle Kuzma will take a significant hit in […]

Kemba Walker is Expected to Play on Monday

Boston Celtics guard Kemba Walker (knee) is expected to play in Monday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Walker has been dealing with left knee soreness, but the MRI came back clean. Jaylen Brown (thumb) is going to be back in the mix as well on Monday, so Marcus Smart won't have much streaming appeal. […]

Jaylen Brown is Fine for Monday

Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown (thumb) will play in Monday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. He's missed each of the last two games due to a right thumb issue. It's unclear whether or not Brown is going to be limited at all. Kemba Walker (knee) is expected to return as well, so Marcus Smart […]

Alex Len Will Sit Out on Monday

Atlanta Hawks center Alex Len (back) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Toronto Raptors. This marks the fourth game in a row that Len has missed due to lower back pain. Damian Jones and Bruno Fernando will see more minutes coming their way here. However, neither player is much of a fantasy […]

Al Horford is Good to Go Versus Brooklyn

Philadelphia 76ers forward/center Al Horford (hand) will play in Monday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He tweaked his hand last game and is reportedly still sore from it. The Sixers might limit Horford in this game, but there's been no details on that. Horford is worth looking at in DFS contests if he's close to […]

Kyrie Irving Won't Play Against Sixers

Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving (hamstring) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. This is surprising news since Irving wasn't on the injury report heading into this game. Spencer Dinwiddie will see more minutes and a higher usage without Irving on the court. He'll be a popular DFS option for Monday's […]

Bruce Brown Jr. is Available on Monday

Detroit Pistons guard Bruce Brown Jr. (thumb) is available for Monday's game against the Washington Wizards. He's been dealing with a right thumb sprain, but will tough it out in Monday's contest. He's seen his playing time dip lately, so that's a cause for concern for fantasy owners. Derrick Rose could get moved at the […]

Jordan McRae Will Play on Monday

Washington Wizards guard Jordan McRae (ankle) will play in Monday's game against the Detroit Pistons. He was removed from the injury report after getting in limiting practice over the weekend. McRae suffered a left ankle injury on Friday, but it appears he'll be ready to go for Monday. He's worth adding in most standard leagues […]

Mike Muscala (PF/C, OKC) - Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add In 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 4% of leagues ANALYSIS: From the surface, it would seem like you would be best advised to steer clear of Mike Muscala: he has largely shot poorly from long-distance this season, he is seeing his lowest volume of floor-time since 2015, and he appears to be securely […]

Luke Kornet (PF/C, CHI) - Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add In 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 8% of leagues ANALYSIS: Luke Kornet has made his living as a three-point shooting seven-footer for NBA teams with depleted or economical rosters so far in his career, and with the recent significant injuries to Wendell Carter and Daniel Gafford, Kornet will again be having his number […]

San Antonio Spurs power forward/center LaMarcus Aldridge led his team with 21 points on Sunday in the 107-102 win over the Heat. Aldridge did a bit of everything as he nailed eight of 15 from the floor en route to 21 points and added four rebounds with three assists while drilling two triples to go […]

Bam Adebayo Scores 21 Points With 16 Rebounds

Kemba Walker, Jaylen Brown Tagged As Questionable For Monday

The Boston Celtics could once again be without the duo of point guard Kemba Walker and shooting guard/small forward Jaylen Brown for Monday’s matchup versus the Los Angeles Lakers as both have been tagged as questionable to participate. In their absence, Marcus Smart set a new career high in scoring Saturday and would figure to […]

Al Horford Could Sit Out on Monday

Philadelphia 76ers forward/center Al Horford (hand) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He suffered a sprained left hand during Saturday's contest. It's on his non-shooting hand, so that might give Horford a better chance of getting out there. Fantasy owners will have a better idea after shootaround on Monday. Mike […]

Royce O'Neale Agrees on Extension

Utah Jazz forward Royce O'Neale has agreed to a four year extension with the organization, according to Adrian Wojnarowski.
