Isaiah Thomas Tagged As Questionable For Saturday

Washington Wizards point guard Isaiah Thomas has been upgraded to questionable to appear in Saturday’s game versus the Memphis Grizzlies due to a left calf strain. Thomas has missed each of Washington’s past four outings, and a return would likely force Ish Smith back to the second unit, as a timeshare between the two had […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo To Suit Up Friday

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo will take the court for Friday’s game versus the Memphis Grizzlies following a one-game absence due to a sore quad. While Antetokounmpo has been given the thumbs up to play, how conservative head coach Mike Budenholzer opts to be with his workload remains to be seen. Even so, Antetokounmpo has […]

Austin Rivers Given Green Light To Return Friday

Houston Rockets point/shooting guard Austin Rivers will be back on the floor for Friday’s game versus the Orlando Magic, having missed his team’s previous two outings due to an illness. Rivers has averaged 31 minutes played over his past four contests, making him more of a DFS commodity due to his upside of seeing significant […]

Derrick Favors To Make Return, Will Enter Starting Five

New Orleans Pelicans power forward/center Derrick Favors will get back onto the floor for Friday’s contest versus the Philadelphia 76ers following a 13-game absence due to personal reasons. Favors will immediately rejoin the starting five, thereby eliminating nearly all of the fantasy value for the duo of Jaxson Hayes and Jahlil Okafor, who figure to […]

Rajon Rondo Cleared To Play Friday

Los Angeles Lakers point guard Rajon Rondo will rejoin the mix for Friday’s contest versus the Miami Heat, having missed the team’s two previous games due to a hamstring ailment. Prior to the injury, Rondo was curiously enough scorching hot from long range, going a combined 7-for-8 from behind the three-point arc in his last […]

Kevin Huerter Will Play 30 Minutes on Friday

Atlanta Hawks guard Kevin Huerter will have his minutes raised to 30 for Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers. The Hawks have been easing Huerter back into action following his shoulder injury. He's basically back to full speed at this point and should be owned in all standard leagues.

Kyle Kuzma Will Sit Against Heat

Los Angeles Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Miami Heat. Kuzma has been battling an ankle issue since late November. The Lakers are going to give Kuzma some rest in the hope that his ankle will heal. Jared Dudley and Danny Green will soak up a majority […]

Paul Millsap Could Sit Out on Saturday

Denver Nuggets forward Paul Millsap (quad) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He suffered a right quad strain on Thursday and was unable to return to that contest. The Nuggets may decide to take the cautious approach with their veteran forward. Jerami Grant, Michael Porter Jr., and Mason Plumlee […]

Tyler Herro Will Play on Friday

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (illness) will play in Friday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. He was unable to practice on Thursday, but it appears he's feeling well enough to suit up. Justise Winslow (back) and Goran Dragic (groin) remain on the sideline for Friday's game. Kendrick Nunn and Herro will be asked to […]

Moritz Wagner Ruled Out for Saturday

Washington Wizards center Moritz Wagner (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Wagner will sit out here due to an ankle sprain, but hopefully it'll only cost him one game. Ian Mahinmi will be the only center on the roster, but he's not a great fantasy option. Rui Hachimura and […]

Fred VanVleet Could Sit Out on Saturday

Toronto Raptors guard Fred Vanvleet (knee) is listed as a game-time decision for Saturday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He was listed as doubtful due to a right knee issue that has caused him to miss the last two games. Norman Powell has jumped into the starting five in the absence of VanVleet. He's played […]

Devin Booker Doesn't Practice on Friday

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (forearm) was unable to suit up for practice on Friday. He's listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Spurs. Booker doesn't expect this issue to cause him to miss any games. We'll see how his forearm is feeling on Saturday. Fantasy owners should check back on Saturday for more […]

Lou Williams Ruled Out on Friday

Los Angeles Clippers guard Lou Williams (calf) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Patrick Beverley (head) and Landry Shamet (ankle) will remain on the sidelines with Williams. Jerome Robinson could draw the start, while Derrick Walton Jr. gets increased minutes off the bench. Neither player is going to be much […]

Al Horford Ruled Out Against Pelicans

Philadelphia 76ers forward/center Al Horford (knee, hamstring) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. This is the second game in a row that Horford has sat out due to lingering injuries. Matisse Thybulle played 30 minutes off the bench on Thursday, while Mike Scott was reliable off the bench. Both […]

Eric Paschall Ruled Out for Friday

Golden State Warriors forward Eric Paschall (hip) has been downgraded to out for Friday's game against the Utah Jazz. He was listed as doubtful on Thursday, so it's not shocking to see Paschall sitting out here. The Warriors aren't going to be competitive this season, so Paschall could sit multiple games. Omari Spellman and Marquese […]

Nikola Vucevic Won't Play Against Rockets

Orlando Magic center Nikola Vucevic (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Houston Rockets. Vucevic was able to get through shootaround, but the team is going to take it slow. It sounds like Vucevic should be fine for Sunday. Khem Birch and Mohamed Bamba will have fantasy value for at least one […]

Markelle Fultz is Back on Friday

Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (illness) is back in the starting five for Friday's game against the Houston Rockets. He missed Wednesday's game due to a stomach bug, but was able to go through shootaround on Friday. D.J. Augustin is expected to return to the second unit with Fultz ready to play again. DFS players […]

Kyrie Irving Remains Out on Saturday

Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving (shoulder) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Toronto Raptors. Irving suffered a shoulder injury in mid-November and hasn't suited up since then. He still hasn't been cleared for contact, so it's unknown when Irving will return to the court. Spencer Dinwiddie will continue to start and is […]

Russell Westbrook Expected to Sit Saturday

Houston Rockets guard Russell Westbrook (rest) will suit up for Friday's game against the Orlando Magic. However, Westbrook is expected to sit out of Saturday's game versus the Detroit Pistons. He missed three games in November during back-to-back sets. Austin Rivers and Ben McLemore will see increased minutes if Westbrook is out. Fantasy owners should […]
