Jrue Holiday Will Miss Second Game Wednesday

New Orleans Pelicans guard Jrue Holiday (elbow) will not play Wednesday against the Chicago Bulls.

E'Twaun Moore played well off the bench, but the […]

Will Barton Out Wednesday For Personal Reasons

Denver Nuggets forward Will Barton (personal) will be attending a family member's funeral and will miss Wednesday night's game against the Dallas Mavericks.

[…]

Stefon Diggs Out Sick Tuesday

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Stefon Diggs (illness) isn't practicing on Tuesday due to an illness. Diggs should be fine to play in the Divisional Round game against the 49ers on Saturday, but it's something to monitor the rest of the week.

Oklahoma City Thunder center Nerlens Noel (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He suffered a left ankle sprain on Saturday and was unable to play on Monday.

Bradley Beal is Questionable on Wednesday

Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal (leg) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Orlando Magic. He's missed each of the last three games due to right leg soreness. Gary Payton, Ish Smith, Jordan McRae, and Troy Brown have seen increased playing time in the absence of Beal. Brown has the most fantasy upside […]

Kristaps Porzingis Won't Play on Wednesday

Dallas Mavericks center Kristaps Porzingis (knee) is making progress, but won't play in Wednesday's game against the Denver Nuggets, according to head coach Rick Carlisle. Porzingis has reportedly been dealing with an illness as well, so that could be part of the reason he's sitting out. The Mavs are going to remain cautious with their […]

Malcolm Brogdon Has A Chance to Play Wednesday

Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon (back) is listed as a game-time decision for Wednesday's game against the Miami Heat. He's missed each of the last three games due to a back issue.

Blake Griffin Undergoes Knee Surgery

Detroit Pistons forward Blake Griffin (knee) underwent a successful arthroscopic debridement of his left knee on Tuesday. The Pistons don't have a timetable for his return at the moment.

Jrue Holiday Might Sit Out on Wednesday

New Orleans Pelicans guard Jrue Holiday (elbow) is listed as a game-time decision for Wednesday's game against the Chicago Bulls, according to head coach Alvin Gentry. He suffered a bruised left elbow on Saturday and didn't play in Monday's contest. Josh Hart and E'Twaun Moore will benefit the most if Holiday is unable to play […]
