Deep Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Adds (Week 10)

We are officially in Week 10 which means I can start saying that the season is coming to end to help sell my picks. Not the smartest idea to out myself like that, but it's the truth. The earlier you can forget about the regular season and start focusing on playoffs the better. We will […]

Gordon Hayward is Probable for Wednesday

Boston Celtics forward Gordon Hayward (foot) is listed as probable for Wednesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He's missed each of the last three games due to left foot soreness. Semi Ojeleye and Grant Williams will see reduced roles with Hayward likely back in the rotation. Hayward should be a reliable fantasy option in most […]

Marcus Smart Won't Play on Wednesday

Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart (eye) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. This was expected as Smart continues to deal with eye infections in both his eyes. It sounds like Smart wants to get back on the court by the end of the month. Until then, Gordon Hayward (foot) and […]

Taj Gibson is Questionable Against Nets

New York Knicks forward Taj Gibson (illness) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He didn't play on Monday due to an illness, which let Mitchell Robinson jump into the starting five. Robinson didn't play great on Monday, but he does have fantasy value. However, the Knicks are loaded in the […]

Marcus Morris is Questionable for Thursday

New York Knicks forward Marcus Morris (Achilles) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He missed Monday's game due to an Achilles issue, but the team isn't going to rush him back to the court. The Knicks season isn't going well and Morris is a decent trade piece for them. They want to […]

Luka Doncic Was Able to Practice on Tuesday

Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Luka Doncic (ankle) was a full participant during Tuesday's practice. The Mavs are unsure whether or not Doncic will be able to play on Thursday, but head coach Rick Carlisle indicated things are looking better for Doncic. Jalen Brunson, Delon Wright, and Seth Curry will lose value once Doncic returns. Brunson has […]

LeBron James Practices on Tuesday

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (back) was able to suit up for Tuesday's practice. He sat out for the first time this season on Sunday and is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. It takes a lot for James to sit out, so fantasy owners should expect him out […]

Anthony Davis Was Able to Practice on Tuesday

Los Angeles Lakers forward/center Anthony Davis (knee) was able to suit up for Tuesday's practice. He tweaked his right knee on Sunday and is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. It sounds like Davis should be able to play this one after getting through practice on Tuesday. Fantasy owners should […]

Matisse Thybulle is Out At Least Two Weeks

Philadelphia 76ers guard Matisse Thybulle (knee) is expected to be sidelined two to four weeks after suffering an injury last week. However, there's some optimism that Thybulle could return by the two week mark, according to Chris Haynes. Furkan Korkmaz and James Ennis should see more minutes coming their way. Neither player will make enough […]

Karl-Anthony Towns is Making Progress

Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) was able to get up some shots during Tuesday's practice. It sounds like Towns is making progress from his left knee sprain. He's missed the last four games, but still gets a few days off until their next game. Gorgui Dieng will head back to the bench once Towns […]

Patrick Beverley Practices on Tuesday

Los Angeles Clippers guard Patrick Beverley (groin) was able to fully practice on Tuesday. Beverley is expected to suit up for Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. He sat out of Sunday's game due to a sore groin. It doesn't sound like Beverley will be limited at all on Wednesday. Lou Williams should head […]

New Orleans Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram posted 19 points, 11 rebounds, five assists, two triples, and two steals in a 102-94 win over the Portland Trail Blazers.

Hassan Whiteside Records 11th Straight Double-Double

Portland Trail Blazers center Hassan Whiteside tallied 11 points, 16 rebounds, four blocks, two assists, and a steal in a 102-94 loss to New Orleans Pelicans.

Carmelo Anthony Scores 23 Points With Nine Rebounds

Portland Trail Blazers forward Carmelo Anthony scored 23 points with nine rebounds, two assists, a triple, and a steal in a 102-94 loss to the New Orleans Pelicans. Anthony's highlight of the night was a steal and buzzer-beating three to tie the game at the end of the first quarter. The 35-year-old has struggled from […]

Fred VanVleet Fills Stat Sheet In Overtime Loss

Indiana Pacers guard Aaron Holiday had a very productive 12th start of the season on Monday, finishing an overtime win against Toronto with 19 points and 10 assists. He also had one block and one steal, while committing just one turnover in 31 minutes of action. Holiday was pretty quiet in the opening half, but […]

Myles Turner Drops Five Three-Point Bombs On Toronto

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner reminded fans of the old Reggie Miller days on Monday, going 5-for-6 from deep in a 120-115 overtime win against Toronto. He shot 9-for-12 overall from the field on his way to finishing with 24 points, which had him tied for the team-lead with T.J. Warren. Turner also tallied seven […]

T.J. Warren Plays Key Role In Win Over Toronto
