Derrick Rose Tagged As Doubtful For Friday

New York Knicks guard Derrick Rose (ankle) is listed as doubtful for Friday's game against the Miami Heat. Rose was able to practice on Thursday, so it sounds like the veteran guard is getting closer to a return. Despite that, it sounds like Rose is set to miss at least one more game. Alec Burks […]

RJ Barrett Uncertain For Friday

New York Knicks forward RJ Barrett (ankle) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Miami Heat. Head coach Tom Thibodeau mentioned last week that Barrett is expected to return after the All-Star break. The return of Barrett would mean Quentin Grimes heads back to the second unit. Grimes has been playing well recently, […]

Klay Thompson Remains Restricted On Thursday

Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson will remain on a minutes limit for Thursday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Thompson is coming off multiple significant injuries, so it's not surprising to see the Warriors being cautious with him. Heading into the All-Star break, Thompson was restricted to 30 minutes per game. That will remain […]

Gary Payton II Questionable For Thursday

Golden State Warriors guard Gary Payton II (leg) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. This sounds like a downgrade as Payton has experienced some discomfort in his shin. Fantasy managers should consider Payton a legitimate game-time decision for Thursday's game. Either Otto Porter Jr. and Jordan Poole should move […]

Isaiah Jackson, Goga Bitadze Probable For Friday

Indiana Pacers centers Isaiah Jackson (ankle) and Goga Bitadze (foot) are listed as probable for Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Jackson has appeared in one game this month, but he was a fantasy asset when healthy. He should have no shortage of minutes, assuming he can stay healthy. Fantasy managers should check the […]

Drew Eubanks Joins Starting Five On Thursday

Portland Trail Blazers forward Drew Eubanks will move into the starting five for Thursday's game against the Golden State Warriors. Jusuf Nurkic (foot) is expected to miss at least a month of action, so Eubanks is likely to see more starts coming his way. Despite that, Eubanks isn't a must-have fantasy player, but will see […]

Goran Dragic Unlikely To Play Saturday

Brooklyn Nets guard Goran Dragic is unlikely to suit up for Saturday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks, according to head coach Steve Nash. He has already been ruled out for Thursday's game, and it doesn't appear he'll make his team debut on Saturday. The veteran guard was traded to the San Antonio Spurs at the […]

Rudy Gay Unlikely To Play On Friday

Utah Jazz forward Rudy Gay (illness) is listed as doubtful for Friday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. Gay didn't practice on Thursday and missed time before the All-Star break as well. It's worth noting that Gay was dealing with knee soreness, but that issue appears to be behind him. Despite that, Gay could very well […]

Malcolm Brogdon Listed As Probable For Friday

Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon (Achilles) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Brogdon has been taking part in recent practices and appears to be back on track to play on Friday. When healthy, Brogdon has been a top-50 fantasy player this season, but sadly he hasn't been healthy. In […]

Chris Duarte Tagged As Questionable For Friday

Indiana Pacers guard Chris Duarte (toe) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He missed the final two games before the All-Star break due to left big toe soreness. When he returns, Duarte could struggle to find consistent playing time in Indiana. The addition of Tyrese Haliburton and Buddy Hield […]

Brook Lopez Able To Practice On Thursday

Milwaukee Bucks center Brook Lopez (back) was able to take part in Thursday's practice. However, Lopez remains "a ways" off from a return to the court, according to head coach Mike Budenholzer. Lopez has been sidelined basically all season long. He underwent back surgery in December and will hopefully return in time for the playoffs. […]

Bobby Green Stepping In Late For Main-Event Spot

If Bobby Green (29-12-1) wants to earn his third straight victory, it's going to be against one of the toughest opponents in the division when he battles Islam Makhachev in Saturday night's main event. Going against Green is the fact he is taking the contest on one week's notice. There is a lot that can […]

Islam Makhachev Hoping To Get One Step Closer To UFC Gold

Few will argue if you mad the statement that Islam Makhachev (21-1) is the best fighter in the UFC to have not won UFC gold in his career yet. With that being said, he can take one step closer to obtaining that goal of championship aspirations when he battles Bobby Green in Saturday night's main […]

Wellington Turman Hoping To Win Back-To-Back Bouts

It has been a bumpy ride thus far in the UFC for Wellington Turman (17-5), who has gone 2-3 since joining the organization. He's looking to build off of his last win, which was a split decision over Sam Alvey, and that fight wasn't indicative of Turman's ability to perform against higher-level competition. Before his […]

Kristaps Porzingis Will Miss Friday’s Outing

Washington Wizards center Kristaps Porzingis (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's contest against San Antonio as he works his way back from a bone bruise in his right knee.

Avery Bradley Will Miss Friday’s Game

Los Angeles Lakers shooting guard Avery Bradley (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's contest against the Clippers as he continues to battle a right knee effusion. Bradley, an integral member of L.A.'s starting five, has been more impactful on the ball defensively than as a fantasy contributor in 2021-22. Malik Monk slid into the […]

John Collins Will Miss Thursday’s Contest

Atlanta Hawks power forward/center John Collins (foot) has been ruled out for Thursday's game vs. the Bulls due to a strained right foot. Collins' absence will mark his fourth in a row, paving the way for Danilo Gallinari to remain among the starting five. While Collins has been down, Gallinari has averaged 13.7 PPG. When […]

Carmelo Anthony On Track To Suit Up For Friday’s Game

Los Angeles Lakers power forward Carmelo Anthony (hamstring) was able to log a full practice session Thursday, which has bumped his status up to probable for Friday's contest vs. the Clippers.

Frank Jackson Will Suit Up For Thursday’s Game

Detroit Pistons shooting guard Frank Jackson (back) has been given the green light to play in Thursday's contest against the Cavaliers.

Miami Heat point/shooting guard Tyler Herro (knee) and small forward Caleb Martin (Achilles) have been removed from the team's injury report ahead of Friday's game against the Knicks.

Misha Cirkunov Looking For First Middleweight Win

After starting off his career winning four straight fights in the UFC, Misha Cirkunov (15-7) has gone 2-5 and has lost his last two matchups. When he has been victorious, Cirkunov has been a finisher, with 13 of his 15 career wins coming via the finish -- nine of his wins have come by submission. […]

Rajon Rondo Shifts Into Starting Five Thursday

Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Rajon Rondo has been elevated into the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Pistons with Darius Garland (back) and Caris LeVert (foot) ruled out. Both injured players sound as if they are on track for a multi-game absence, thereby elevating Rondo into both nightly DFS and short-term season-long consideration. The […]

Ji Yeon Kim Hoping To Avoid A Three-Fight Skid

Looking to improve to a .500 win percentage in the UFC, Ji Yeon Kim (9-4-2) enters Saturday night's action looking to avoid a three-fight losing streak. Currently 3-4 inside the Octagon, Kim has yet to earn a victory since October of 2019. Kim has shown the ability to earn finishes, with five of her nine […]

Brooklyn Expects Kevin Durant Back In The Next Week

Brooklyn Nets power forward Kevin Durant (knee) is set to get back into game action within the next week, per head coach Steve Nash. Durant has been sidelined since Jan. 15 due to a sprained left MCL, but he has recently logged a high intensity workout in his quest to return. On pace to tie […]

Cleveland Cavaliers small forward Lauri Markkanen (ankle) has been cleared to suit up for Thursday's contest against the Pistons, although he will have his minutes restricted in his first game action since Jan. 22.

James Harden Will Make 76ers Debut Friday

Philadelphia 76ers point/shooting guard James Harden (hamstring) has been given the green light to make his team debut for Friday's contest against Minnesota.
