Jamal Murray Injures Ankle Against The Hornets

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray went to contest a corner three against Terry Rozier on Wednesday and he ended up landing on Rozier's foot, which resulted in Murray rolling his ankle. Murray finished the contest with five points and two steals in just 15 minutes of action before exiting the contest and not returning. Monte […]

Michael Porter Jr. Gets 28 Minutes In Win

Denver Nuggets forward Michael Porter Jr. entered the game in the first quarter and went off for 17 points in eight minutes in the opening frame, which included 11 straight points. Porter Jr. finished the night with 19 points, eight rebounds, and two steals while drilling two triples in the process in 28 minutes of […]

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Stuffs The Box Score In Loss

Oklahoma City shooting guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander had 21 points, six rebounds, six assists, three steals, and one block in 38 minutes on Wednesday night. He tied his season-high in steals for the third time and has collected at least one takeaway in six of his eight games to begin 2020. He was never going to live up […]

Dennis Schroder Drains Season-High Five Three Pointers

Oklahoma City guard Dennis Schroder returned to his blazing form on Wednesday night against the Toronto Raptors. Despite his team taking a 130-121 loss, Schroder had 25 points, six assists, three rebounds, and two steals in 37 minutes. He has been the super sub for Oklahoma City all season but hadn't scored more than 16 points in […]

Chris Paul Records Fifth Double-Double Of Season

Oklahoma City guard Chris Paul contributed in a multitude of ways on Wednesday night, but couldn't pull his team back from a huge deficit against the Toronto Raptors. Paul had 16 points, 11 assists, five rebounds, and four steals. It wasn't enough, though, and Paul saw his fifth double-double of the season end in a loss. He […]

Norman Powell Scores Team-High 23 Points In Win

Toronto Raptors guard Norman Powell continued to impress in his return from an 11-game absence on Wednesday. It was his second game back, and against the Oklahoma City Thunder, he led his team in scoring in 27 minutes off the bench. His final stat line only consisted of 23 points and two assists, but it was his […]

Pascal Siakam Continues To Shake Off Some Rust

Toronto Raptors forward Pascal Siakam helped his team hold off a furious Oklahoma City Thunder comeback on Wednesday night. The Raptors won 130-121 but saw a 30-point lead cut to just three points in the fourth quarter before pulling away. Siakam had 21 points, four rebounds, four assists, two steals and one block in 30 minutes. It […]

P.J. Tucker Good To Go Wednesday

Houston Rockets forward P.J. Tucker (shoulder) will play Wednesday night against the Portland Trail Blazers. Tucker is an iron man when it comes to injuries so it is no surprise he decided to play through a shoulder stinger. Tucker has been quiet lately and a should injury doesn't help much, but he most likely won't […]

Karl-Anthony Towns Continues To Sit

The "questionable" saga continues as Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) will not play Wednesday night against the Indiana Pacers. Towns has been listed as questionable for weeks so this comes with little to no surprise. Gorgui Dieng will continue to start at center while Naz Reid will get the backup big minutes.

Fantasy Basketball Rotation Watch: Playing Time Updates For Week 13

Welcome to Rotation Watch! Each week this article will break down who is gaining and who is losing minutes around the NBA. Fantasy managers want the players that are getting the opportunity to shine, not the ones who are sitting on the bench and watching from the sidelines. I hate sounding like a broken record, […]

Buy, Sell, or Hold: Robert Covington and Kemba Walker

Surging players are always great trade bait, and if you do your fishing right, after their explosion is over you could end up with a nice catch. For this to be successful, one should always keep an eye out for players' forms and take advantage of their own player's hot streak and another, more valuable […]

Fantasy Basketball Week 13 Waiver Wire Specialists

Wishing everyone a Happy New Year! This season has been entertaining with many different story lines, and we're excited for what the rest of the season has to offer. This is a reminder that fantasy basketball is a marathon, not a sprint. We are just past halfway into the fantasy season, where managers should have […]

Tyler Herro Won't Play Wednesday

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. He hurt his left knee during practice on Tuesday. The Heat aren't sure how long Herro is going to be sidelined. Kendrick Nunn, Goran Dragic, Derrick Jones, and Duncan Robinson will split up the extra playing time.

Daniel Theis is Hopeful to Play on Wednesday

Boston Celtics forward/center Daniel Theis (knee) is feeling better and is hopeful to play in Wednesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. He didn't play in Monday's game, but it sounds like Theis is making progress. Enes Kanter wouldn't see as much playing time if Theis is back in the mix here. Fantasy owners should check […]

Jayson Tatum is Ruled Out Against Pistons

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. He was listed as probable due to right knee soreness, but the Celtics are electing to take the cautious approach here. Grant Williams and Semi Ojeleye should be asked to step up without Tatum available. Kemba Walker, Jaylen […]

P.J. Tucker is Questionable for Wednesday

Houston Rockets forward P.J. Tucker (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He suffered a shoulder injury on Saturday, but was able to play through the issue on Tuesday. The Rockets are likely going to wait until closer to tip-off before making a final decision. Houston will likely use […]

Wilson Chandler Will Play Versus 76ers

Brooklyn Nets forward Wilson Chandler (hamstring) is available for Wednesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Chandler was held out of Tuesday's contest due to tightness in his left hamstring. Rodions Kurucs will see less playing time with Chandler back in the mix on Wednesday. Neither player is much of a fantasy option at the moment, […]

Kyrie Irving is Good to Go for Wednesday

Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving (shoulder) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Wednesday's game versus the Philadelphia 76ers. He played 32 minutes during Tuesday's game, so there was some concern he'd have a rest day on Wednesday. It sounds like Irving is feeling fine and he shouldn't be limited during Wednesday's contest. […]

Kristaps Porzingis is Expected to Play on Wednesday

Dallas Mavericks center Kristaps Porzingis (knee) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He's expected to return from his eight game absence, but we'll see what happens closer to tip-off. Dorian Finney-Smith, Maximilian Kleber, and possibly Dwight Powell will lose minutes and value with Porzingis returning. He'll likely be under a […]

Jrue Holiday is Limited in Practice

New Orleans Pelicans guard Jrue Holiday (elbow) was limited to non-contact work during Wednesday's practice. It sounds unlikely that Holiday is going to be able to suit up for Thursday's game versus the Utah Jazz. It'll be his sixth game in a row on the sidelines, but hopefully he'll return soon. Josh Hart should continue […]

Alex Len Misses Wednesday's Practice

Atlanta Hawks center Alex Len (back) was unable to suit up for Wednesday's practice. He missed Tuesday's game with lower back pain and it doesn't appear to be healing too fast. The Hawks don't play again until Friday, so Len has a couple of days to rest. Damian Jones would see increased playing time if […]

D.J. Augustin, Michael Carter-Williams Are Out Wednesday

Orlando Magic guards D.J. Augustin (knee) and Michael Carter-Williams (shoulder) have been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Sadly, Evan Fournier (quad) was added to the injury report after shootaround and he's questionable for this one. Markelle Fultz isn't going to have much help off the bench on Wednesday. Melvin Frazier […]

Evan Fournier is Questionable for Wednesday

Orlando Magic guard/forward Evan Fournier (quad) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. It sounds like Fournier suffered a quad injury during shootaround on Wednesday. That's not a good sign, but we'll see how Fournier is feeling closer to tip-off. The Magic are banged up right now, so Markelle Fultz […]
