Miles Bridges Could Miss Another Game On Friday

Charlotte Hornets forward Miles Bridges (knee) has been tagged as questionable and is in danger of missing his 11th consecutive game due to a bone bruise in his right knee. The sixth-year wing has appeared in 11 games this season with averages of 16.0 points, 6.5 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 2.2 threes, and 1.4 turnovers per […]

LaMelo Ball Sidelined Friday Against Bulls

Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball (calf) is dealing with a left calf strain and has been ruled out of Friday's game against the Chicago Bulls. This will be the seventh consecutive game that he's missed after suffering the calf strain against the Miami Heat near the end of November. Since Tre Mann (back) is also […]

Caleb Martin Ruled Out Friday Against Pacers

Philadelphia 76ers forward Caleb Martin (shoulder) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers due to a right-shoulder impingement. The 29-year-old has been going through a rough stretch during the first quarter of the season, and he barely saw any playing time over the last two games. As Martin watches from the […]

DraftKings NBA DFS Picks for Today (Friday, 12/13/24): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

After a slower week with fewer games, the NBA is back to a fuller schedule to get the weekend started. There are eight games on the schedule on Friday night with the first six making up the main slate on DraftKings. None of these teams are on either half of a back-to-back, so they should […]

CBB DFS: DraftKings Daily Fantasy College Basketball Picks - Today's Top Lineups (12/13/24)

It's Friday the 13th. That alone should be cause for alarm. We do have a couple of interesting games on tap and neither one should be a blowout. That makes the slate interesting, even with only two games out there. We start with Indiana heading to the Vault to take on Nebraska. We close out […]

Jusuf Nurkic Off The Injury Report

Phoenix Suns center Jusuf Nurkic (thigh) is off the injury report ahead of Friday's game against Utah. The 30-year-old missed the last six games because of a thigh contusion. As a result, Mason Plumlee took his spot in the lineup. However, with Nurkic back in the mix for the favorable matchup with the Jazz, Plumlee […]

Kevin Durant Expected Back Against The Jazz

Phoenix Suns forward Kevin Durant (ankle) is probable for the meeting with the Jazz on Friday night. The 36-year-old has been banged up a few times during the 2024-25 campaign, most recently missing the last three games because of a sprained ankle. But outside of that, he continues to play well, averaging 25.8 points, 6.7 […]

Austin Reaves Likely Out Again On Friday

Los Angeles Lakers guard Austin Reaves (pelvis) is unlikely to play in Friday's matchup with the Timberwolves, marking his sixth-consecutive absence. LeBron James (foot) has already been ruled out due to left foot soreness, so the Lakers could be without two of their top scoring options. As a result, Anthony Davis would be in line […]

Patrick Williams Questionable Against The Hornets

Chicago Bulls forward Patrick Williams (foot) is questionable for Friday's game against the Hornets. The 23-year-old has been sidelined for nearly a month because of an issue with his surgically-repaired left foot. However, he may need a few more days to recover, although the questionable designation is a step in the right direction. With that […]

Josh Giddey Uncertain For Friday Night

Chicago Bulls guard Josh Giddey (back) is questionable for Friday's encounter with the Charlotte Hornets. The 22-year-old has played as well as expected in his first season in The Windy City, logging 11.7 points, 6.9 assists, and 6.2 rebounds per contest. He's dealing with back spasms, so there's a chance it could keep him off […]

Nikola Vucevic Questionable Versus Charlotte

Chicago Bulls center Nikola Vucevic (illness) is questionable for Friday's matchup versus the Hornets. The veteran hasn't missed a game all year. He's also played extremely well, averaging 21.0 points, 9.8 rebounds, and 47.4% shooting from behind the arc. But if the illness keeps Vucevic off the floor, Jalen Smith could find himself in the […]

Malcolm Brogdon Out Again On Friday Night

Washington Wizards guard Malcolm Brogdon (hamstring) won't play in Friday's game versus the Cleveland Cavaliers. Brogdon began the year on the shelf because of a thumb injury before making his 2024-25 debut against the Pistons on November 17. However, he'll now miss a third-straight game because of hamstring inflammation. The 32-year-old hasn't played the best […]

Anthony Davis Expected To Suit Up On Friday

Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (foot) is listed as probable ahead of Friday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Fantasy managers shouldn't be surprised as Davis has been a regular on the injury report for what seems like years. Davis continues to deal with a plantar fasciitis issue on his left foot, but should be […]

Austin Reaves Uncertain For Friday

Los Angeles Lakers guard Austin Reaves (pelvis) is listed as questionable ahead of Friday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Reaves has been upgraded to questionable for this game after missing each of the last five games due to a pelvic contusion. He was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice, which is good news for the […]

Jalen Duren Ruled Out For Thursday's Contest

Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (wrist) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday's game against the Boston Celtics. The big man was tagged as questionable coming into this game, but Duren will officially sit out due to a wrist sprain. The loss of Duren should mean an increased role for Isaiah Stewart in the rotation. […]

LeBron James Ruled Out For Friday's Game

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (foot, personal) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. James reportedly left practice early on Wednesday due to personal reasons. However, he is also considered day-to-day due to a left foot injury. It's uncertain which issue is actually keeping him out of this game, […]

Sam Hauser Ruled Out For Thursday

Boston Celtics forward Sam Hauser (groin) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday's game against the Detroit Pistons. This was expected to happen after Hauser suffered a groin injury during their last game. The Celtics are going to be shorthanded at the forward spot with Jayson Tatum (knee) also heading to the sideline. The expectation […]

Jalen Duren Could Miss Thursday's Game

Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (wrist) is currently listed as questionable ahead of Thursday's game against the Boston Celtics. The big man was a late addition to the injury report due to a wrist issue. Duren missed some time in November due to a wrist sprain, so possibly this is related to his wrist sprain […]

Jimmy Butler Will Play Thursday

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (knee) is available ahead of Thursday's game against the Toronto Raptors. As expected, Butler will play after being listed as probable heading into this game. Butler has been dealing with a right knee issue, but will play in fourth straight game on Thursday. Fantasy managers shouldn't be too concerned about […]

Jayson Tatum Out On Thursday Night

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (knee) won't play in Thursday's meeting with the Detroit Pistons. He has a case of right patella tendinopathy, so he'll miss his second game of the 2024-25 campaign. With Sam Hauser (adductor) also sidelined, Al Horford will likely enter the starting lineup and handle things at the four spot. But […]

Javonte Green Questionable For Meeting With Kings

New Orleans Pelicans forward Javonte Green (ankle) is questionable for Thursday's game against Sacramento. A sore left ankle may keep Green off the court for a second consecutive game. Green has been a big beneficiary of New Orleans' injury troubles this season, starting in 12 contests. However, the Pelicans have started to get everybody back, […]

Josh Richardson To Sit Out At Least One Week

Miami Heat guard Josh Richardson (heel) will be unavailable for at least one week. Per Ira Winderman of the South Florida Sun-Sentinel, Richardson has had an injection in his right heel. The 31-year-old hasn't seen the court since Nov. 18, although he has recently been in the lineup. The 2024-25 campaign could not have gone […]

Jimmy Butler Probable For Thursday's Matchup

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (knee) is expected to remain in the lineup against Toronto on Thursday. The team has listed him as probable for the game. Butler is battling knee soreness but has played in three straight contests. It's been an extremely efficient month for Butler, as he's shot 64.4 percent from the field […]

Ausar Thompson Ready To Return On Thursday

Detroit Pistons forward Ausar Thompson is not on the injury report for Thursday's game against Boston. He's set to return from a two-game absence. Thompson battled an illness last week and also missed time due to a groin problem. Following a bout with blood clots, Thompson has been limited to five appearances this season. He's […]

Sam Hauser Doubtful For Thursday

Boston Celtics forward Sam Hauser (adductor) is considered doubtful for Thursday's clash with the Pistons. He missed the second half of Saturday's 127-121 loss to Memphis due to an adductor strain, and it appears likely that Hauser will miss Thursday's game entirely because of the injury. Prior to last weekend, Hauser enjoyed a strong stretch […]

Al Horford Available Versus Pistons

Boston Celtics forward/center Al Horford (toe) will suit up for Thursday's battle against Detroit. The veteran missed Saturday's matchup against Memphis with a toe injury, but he's not listed on the injury report ahead of Thursday's game. Horford has started in all but one appearance this season, posting 9.6 points, 5.3 rebounds, and 2.4 assists. […]

Jayson Tatum Questionable For Thursday's Game

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (kneecap) has been listed as questionable for Thursday's matchup against Detroit. He's trying to overcome right patella tendinopathy. The five-time All-Star recently missed a meeting with the Pistons due to the ailment. With Sam Hauser (adductor) doubtful for the game, Drew Peterson might return to the frontcourt rotation on Thursday. […]
