Tim Hardaway Jr. Goes Off For 29 Points Sunday Night

Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Tim Hardaway Jr. was feeling it against Sacramento on Sunday, finishing a 110-106 loss with 29 points on 10-for-13 shooting. He made a career-high nine shots from deep in 36 minutes of action. Hardaway Jr. had earned 30-plus minutes of action just three times this season before Sunday, so this was an […]

Kawhi Leonard Posts A Double-Double Against Washington

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard was fantastic on Sunday in a win over the Wizards, posting 34 points on 12-for-18 shooting to go along with 11 rebounds and five assists.

Luka Doncic Struggles From The Field Against Kings

Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Luka Doncic had a tough night against the Kings on Sunday, shooting only 10-for-24 from the field and 3-for-12 from three-point range. However, despite the shooting issues, he still managed to provide a good-looking 27-8-7 line in 35 minutes. He also had six turnovers, which ended up hurting the team a lot […]

Harrison Barnes Does A Bit Of Everything Against Former Team

Sacramento Kings forward Harrison Barnes showed off his versatility in Sunday's 110-106 win over Dallas, finishing with 13 points, seven rebounds, five assists, and one steal. It was a sweet victory for Barnes, who was traded by the Mavs 10 months ago. Barnes has played some huge minutes lately and this wasn't any different as […]

Buddy Hield Gets Going From Deep Sunday Night

Sacramento Kings shooting guard Buddy Hield, who had shot below 30 percent from downtown in five straight games, ended the slump on Sunday, going 5-for-6 from deep in a 110-106 win over Dallas. He finished with 26 points, shooting 10-for-15 overall from the field. Hield also recorded five assists and four rebounds. Despite his cold […]

Nemanja Bjelica Leads Kings To Victory In Dallas

Sacramento Kings forward Nemanja Bjelica matched his career high with 30 points on Sunday, helping the team beat Dallas 110-106 on the road.

Gordon Hayward Practiced on Sunday

Boston Celtics forward Gordon Hayward (hand) was able to participate in practice on Sunday. Head coach Brad Stevens hasn't ruled out Hayward for Monday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The team is going to wait and see how Hayward's hand responds. Fantasy owners should check back on Monday for more information on his status.

Robert Williams is Doubtful for Monday

Boston Celtics center Robert Williams (hip) is listed as doubtful for Monday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He's dealing with hip soreness, so the Celtics might take the cautious approach and have Williams rest. Daniel Theis and Enes Kanter would see increased minutes if Williams sits out. Theis has better fantasy value between the two.

Delon Wright is Ruled Out for Sunday

Dallas Mavericks guard Delon Wright (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He hurt his groin during Saturday's win over the Pelicans. The Mavs are going to take the cautious approach and let Wright rest here. Jalen Brunson and Seth Curry will see increased minutes coming their way.

Matisse Thybulle is Questionable for Sunday

Philadelphia 76ers guard Matisse Thybulle (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He suffered a right ankle sprain during Saturday's blowout win over the Cavs. Furkan Korkmaz, James Ennis, and Trey Burke would be asked to play more if Thybulle sits out. None of them are great fantasy options, but […]

Joel Embiid Will Be Fine for Sunday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (hip) will play in Sunday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He missed Saturday's game due to a left hip contusion. However, Embiid is not going to sit out a rematch versus Toronto. He was held to zero points last time they played against the Raptors. Embiid is going to be […]

Bam Adebayo Will Play on Sunday

Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo (groin) will suit up for Sunday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He's dealing with some groin soreness, but won't sit out here. Fantasy owners can feel safe about using Adebayo here. However, the Heat may sit out Adebayo early in a blowout.

Justise Winslow Will Sit Out Against Bulls

Miami Heat guard Justise Winslow (back) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Chicago Bulls. Winslow has been dealing with back issues all season long, so this could be a multiple game absence. Tyler Herro, Kendrick Nunn, and Derrick Jones will be asked to step up on Sunday. Both Herro and Nunn are […]

Kristaps Porzingis Should Be Fine for Sunday

Dallas Mavericks center Kristaps Porzingis is not listed on the injury report for Sunday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He's expected to be available for the second game of the back-to-back set. Porzingis played 20 minutes on Saturday, so the Mavericks feel that he'll be able to play 30 minutes on Sunday. However, the Mavs […]

Kawhi Leonard is Expected to Play on Sunday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard is not listed on the injury report for Sunday's game against the Washington Wizards. It appears Leonard will be available for the first game of the back-to-back set. However, that means Leonard is likely going to sit out of Monday's game versus the Pacers. Fantasy owners should feel safe […]

Marvin Williams is Ruled Out for Sunday

Charlotte Hornets forward Marvin Williams (knee) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. He was listed as probable, but is going to sit out due to a sore right knee. Miles Bridges should see increased minutes and shots coming his way without Williams available. DFS players should take a look at […]

De'Andre Hunter Will Come Off The Bench

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (finger) will come off the bench for Sunday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Hunter will be back in action after missing one game due to a finger issue. It doesn't sound like Hunter will be limited at all for this one. He could be worth a look as a cheap […]

Kevin Huerter Will Start on Sunday

Atlanta Hawks guard Kevin Huerter will jump into the starting five for Sunday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Huerter will replace Deandre Bembry in the starting five, but will remain on a minutes limit. The team will increase Huerter's minutes to 25 for Sunday's contest. He's worth an add in deep leagues and is someone […]

Allen Crabbe Will Be Limited on Sunday

Atlanta Hawks guard Allen Crabbe (knee) will return to the rotation for Sunday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. He missed the last two games due to a knee issue, but will play here. However, Crabbe is going to be on a minutes limit on Sunday. Vince Carter will lose some playing time with Crabbe back […]

Cedi Osman (SF/PF, CLE) - Week 8 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add In 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 24% of leagues ANALYSIS: Cleveland Cavaliers third-year forward Cedi Osman has been playing some strong basketball lately. While he struggled on Saturday night, the five game stretch before that saw Osman play 31.5 minutes per night with averages of 14.6 points, 2.6 rebounds, 2.0 assists, 1.6 steals […]

Mitchell Robinson Ties Season High With Nine Shot Attempts

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson finished 6-for-9 from the field during Saturday’s loss to the Indiana Pacers, tying his season high in field-goal attempts.

Julius Randle Logs Double-Double, Misses Chance To Force OT

New York Knicks power forward/center Julius Randle stepped to the free-throw line with 0.1 seconds remaining Saturday, but after making his first free throw, saw his second clank off the rim, sealing a defeat to the Indiana Pacers. Despite the missed opportunity, he still finished with 16 points and 12 rebounds, his first double-double since […]

Marcus Morris Pours In Team-High 25 Points During Loss

New York Knicks small/power forward Marcus Morris keyed the team’s offense during its loss Saturday to the Indiana Pacers, collecting a team-best 25 points on 9-for-17 shooting. After a quiet outing in his first game back from a two-contest absence Thursday, Morris found his offensive rhythm, knocking down four triples. He was again subdued on […]

Domantas Sabonis Notches Eighth Straight Double-Double

Indiana Pacers power forward/center Domantas Sabonis strung together another double-double during Saturday’s win over the New York Knicks, collecting 19 points to go along with 15 rebounds, his eighth straight game finishing in double figures in both categories. He had his second best shooting night of the season by percentage (8-for-11) in the win, also […]
