JaVale McGee Will Miss Sunday’s Contest

Phoenix Suns center JaVale McGee (illness) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Philadelphia. McGee has continued to be a solid per minute contributor when utilized off the bench, but the return of Deandre Ayton has made him a non-entity in season-long formats. On the year, McGee has averaged 9.3 points and 6.6 rebounds […]

New York Knicks forward Julius Randle (quadriceps) is questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup versus Detroit. Randle has missed his previous three games because of a sore right quad, opening the door for Obi Toppin to take his place in the lineup. Toppin has played well while filling in, averaging 14 points and eight boards, giving […]
