He was off to a great start in the game with 14 points, five rebounds, two assists, and one steal in 16 minutes. […]

Derrick White Available Versus 76ers

Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (hamstring) has received the green light to play against Philadelphia on Christmas Day. White has missed only one game this season and will be available for Wednesday's matchup despite dealing with a hamstring issue. Jrue Holiday (shoulder) will not be in the lineup, so White will be expected to do […]

Jrue Holiday Will Not Play On Christmas Day

Boston Celtics guard Jrue Holiday (shoulder) has been ruled out for Wednesday's matchup against Philadelphia. He will be sidelined with right shoulder impingement, with the team downgrading Holiday from questionable to out. Holiday's absence should boost Payton Pritchard's playing time. He's struggled in recent outings, scoring just 13 points across the previous two games, but […]

Jayson Tatum Cleared For Action Wednesday

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (illness) will suit up for Wednesday's Christmas clash against Philadelphia. Boston has upgraded him from questionable to available ahead of the game.

Jaden Hardy Available Versus Timberwolves

Dallas Mavericks guard Jaden Hardy (ankle) will be in the lineup for Wednesday's Christmas matchup against Minnesota. He's returning from a six-game absence after being initially listed as questionable for the contest. Hardy's addition adds an extra option for Dallas, but he isn't expected to be a major factor on Wednesday. Across 22 outings this […]

Luka Doncic Good To Go Wednesday

Dallas Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic (heel) will play against Minnesota on Christmas Day. Dallas has upgraded him from probable to available. Doncic returned from a two-game absence on Monday versus Portland and eased his way to a 27-7-7 line. He has recorded three triple-doubles in his last five appearances and will look to do […]

Zion Williamson Expected To Return To Full Practice Next Week

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (hamstring) is nearing his comeback, as the team announced on Tuesday that he is expected to return to full practice next week.

Brandon Ingram To Be Re-Evaluated In Two Weeks

New Orleans Pelicans guard/forward Brandon Ingram (ankle) is set to spend at least a couple of more weeks on the sidelines. The team announced that Ingram will be re-evaluated in two weeks. The former All-Star has already missed a lot of action, featuring just twice since Nov. 22. With Zion Williamson (hamstring) also on the […]

Trey Murphy III Considered Day-To-Day

New Orleans Pelicans forward Trey Murphy III (ankle) is considered day-to-day. He injured his ankle on Sunday against Denver but has luckily escaped a serious injury. Considering the team has labeled him as day-to-day, there's a chance Murphy III doesn't even have to miss any games. New Orleans returns to action on Thursday against Houston. […]

Dru Smith Out For Season With An Achilles Injury

Miami Heat guard Dru Smith (Achilles) has been ruled out for the rest of the season. He tore his left Achilles in Monday's game against Brooklyn. This is a very unfortunate blow for Smith, who had just carved out a significant role on the team for himself, averaging 29.3 minutes over a six-game stretch before […]

Gary Payton II Might Miss A Second Straight Game Wednesday

Golden State Warriors guard/forward Gary Payton II (calf) has been labeled as questionable for Wednesday's Christmas game against the Lakers.

D'Angelo Russell In Danger Of Missing Christmas Game

Los Angeles Lakers point guard D'Angelo Russell (thumb) has been listed as questionable for Wednesday's Christmas battle against Golden State.

Anthony Davis Questionable For Christmas Day Action

Los Angeles Lakers forward/center Anthony Davis (shoulder) has been listed as questionable for Wednesday's meeting with Golden State. He has sustained a shoulder contusion ahead of Christmas. Davis has played through a foot problem most of the season, missing only one game, so it appears likely that he will shake off the questionable tag ahead […]

LeBron James Questionable To Face Warriors On Christmas

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (foot) is once again accompanied by a questionable tag on the injury report ahead of the team's Christmas Day matchup against Golden State. The veteran superstar continues to manage a left foot injury. However, despite being a regular on the injury report, James has sat out only two contests […]

Derrick White Battling A Hamstring Problem, Questionable To Play On Christmas Day

Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (hamstring) is in danger of missing his second game of the season, with the team listing him as questionable for Wednesday's meeting with Philadelphia.

Jrue Holiday Carrying A Questionable Tag On Christmas

Boston Celtics guard Jrue Holiday (shoulder) is considered questionable for the team's Christmas Day clash against Philadelphia. A shoulder problem might take Holiday out of the lineup for the first time in seven games. Payton Pritchard's fantasy stock would get a big boost if Holiday won't be able to play. He's been one of the […]

Jayson Tatum Iffy For Christmas Game

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (illness) is regarded as questionable for Wednesday's Christmas game against Philadelphia. He was a late scratch on Monday versus Orlando because of an illness, and Tatum hasn't had a lot of time to recover. Tatum's absence on Monday gave Al Horford an opportunity to log his 19th start of the […]

Jamal Murray Questionable For Christmas Action

Denver Nuggets point guard Jamal Murray (ankle) has been listed as questionable for Wednesday's matchup against Phoenix. He missed a meeting with the Suns on Monday due to a right ankle sprain and might also have to sit out a Christmas rematch between the two teams. Russell Westbrook made his seventh start of the year […]

Grayson Allen Sidelined For Christmas

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Grayson Allen (concussion) will sit out Wednesday's Christmas battle against Denver. He remains in concussion protocol, missing a second consecutive game. With Allen out of commission, Ryan Dunn reached the 30-minute mark for the second time this season on Monday versus the Nuggets. However, he didn't do a lot in the contest, […]

Devin Booker Ruled Out For Christmas Clash

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (groin) will not play against Denver on Christmas Day. He exited the lineup last week with a left groin strain and will be absent for a third straight game.

KJ is having his best season in years, averaging 6.4 points. While that hasn't made Martin a practical fantasy asset in redraft formats, his […]

Andre Drummond May Miss Wednesday's Game

Philadelphia 76ers center Andre Drummond (toe) is questionable for Wednesday's encounter with the Boston Celtics. The veteran has had a decent season. However, he was more impactful for fantasy managers when he filled in for Joel Embiid (face) this season, averaging 8.1 points, 10.1 rebounds, and 1.6 steals in 14 starts. But with Embiid available, […]

Joel Embiid Available On Christmas Day

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (face) is listed as available for Wednesday's Christmas matchup with the Celtics.

Jaden Hardy Questionable For Wednesday

Dallas Mavericks guard Jaden Hardy (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's Christmas clash with the Timberwolves. He has missed the last six games because of a sprained ankle. However, the 22-year-old is seemingly moving in a favorable direction regarding a return to the court. Unfortunately for fantasy managers, Hardy is having the worst year of his […]

Luka Doncic Probable For Christmas Matchup With Minnesota

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (heel) is probable for the Christmas meeting with the Timberwolves. Doncic missed the two previous games heading into Monday's win over the Portland Trail Blazers. He played well enough in that one despite going 1-for-7 from behind the arc, amassing 27 points, seven rebounds, and seven assists. With that in […]
