DeAndre Jordan Rejoins Starting Five Tuesday

Brooklyn Nets center DeAndre Jordan has been tabbed to start Tuesday's game against Sacramento in place of Jeff Green (shoulder). Jordan logged his third double-double of the year in his last outing, with the Kings' struggles at containing the opponents' center only enhanced by his recent success. DFS managers shouldn't expect a massive minutes jump […]

Steven Adams Upgraded To Probable

New Orleans Pelicans center Steven Adams (ankle) has been upgraded to probable ahead of Wednesday's matchup against Detroit. The veteran returned to practice on Tuesday after missing his previous two games. If Adams is cleared during pre-game warmups against the Pistons, expect Willy Hernangomez to see a decrease in fantasy value.

Harrison Barnes Returns Tuesday, Will Rejoin Starting Five

Sacramento Kings small/power forward Harrison Barnes (foot) has been given the green light to get back into action for Tuesday's contest versus the Nets, stemming his absence due to a foot sprain at three games.

Seth Curry Will Miss Tuesday’s Contest

Philadelphia 76ers shooting guard Seth Curry (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game versus the Raptors due to a sore left ankle.

Atlanta Hawks shooting guard/small forward Tony Snell will make his first start of the season Tuesday against Cleveland with Cam Reddish (Achilles) sidelined.

Having averaged 11.2 PPG across 27 starts last season, […]

Nerlens Noel Will Start On Tuesday

New York Knicks center Nerlens Noel (ankle) will start on Tuesday against Golden State. The veteran has been dealing with soreness in his left ankle, but it's nothing that should cause him problems down the line, at least for now.

Jrue Holiday Remains Sidelined For Tuesday’s Game

Milwaukee Bucks point guard Jrue Holiday will be unavailable for Tuesday's contest against Minnesota as he works his way back from the league's health and safety protocols.

The 28-year-old hasn't played since Feb. 4 when he had one assist in a 6-5 overtime victory against Florida. Johansen has four total assists for the year with no goals in […]

Kristaps Porzingis Not On The Block

Dallas Mavericks forward/center Kristaps Porzingis (back) will remain with the team, according to owner Mark Cuban. "We have not discussed him (Porzingis) in a trade at all," remarked Cuban when asked about a potential deal to Golden State. The 25-year-old continues to deal with tightness in his back, an injury that will keep him out […]

Scott Kazmir, Giants Reach Minor League Deal Tuesday

The San Francisco Giants and veteran left-handed pitcher Scott Kazmir have agreed to a Minor League deal with an invitation to big league camp, per ESPN's Buster Olney.

Victor Oladipo, Eric Gordon Questionable For Wednesday

Houston Rockets point/shooting guards Victor Oladipo (foot) and Eric Gordon (heel) have been deemed questionable to play in Wednesday's contest against Cleveland.

The Oilers have overcome a rough start to the year and have […]

Kevin Durant May Be Back Before The All-Star Break

Brooklyn Nets forward Kevin Durant (hamstring) could be back before the All-Star break. The former MVP has missed his previous four games due to the ailment, but with the team looking to win a title in 2021, he won't be rushed back either. While he is out, expect Kyrie Irving and James Harden to continue […]

Iman Shumpert Cleared To Make Team Debut Tuesday

Brooklyn Nets small forward Iman Shumpert has been given the green light to take the floor for the first time this year after having re-signed with the organization in January. The timing of his potential debut is fortuitous, as Brooklyn is down bench ace Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot (hip) for the first time all season Tuesday, which […]

Carey Price Looks For Form Versus Lowly Senators

Montreal Canadiens goaltender Carey Price will record his 11th start of the season in Tuesday's matchup with the Senators.

Ottawa shocked Montreal on Sunday […]

Taurean Prince Likely To Miss Another Game

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Taurean Prince (ankle) is listed as doubtful on Tuesday against the Atlanta Hawks.

DFS managers should keep […]

Kevon Looney Rejoins Starting Five Tuesday

Golden State Warriors center Kevon Looney (ankle) has been cleared to return for Tuesday's game against New York, immediately reclaiming his spot in the starting lineup. Despite his starting gig, Looney is a highly unreliable fantasy asset, having scored in double figures just once during his first 21 contests to begin the year. His matchup […]

Rajon Rondo Available On Tuesday Night

Atlanta Hawks guard Rajon Rondo (back) is available to play on Tuesday night against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The veteran has been dealing with lower-back pain, an injury that forced him to sit out during the team's previous seven outings. He still shouldn't be considered a viable fantasy option, primarily since he averages only 15 minutes […]

Stephen Curry, James Wiseman Cleared To Return Tuesday

Golden State Warriors point guard Stephen Curry (illness) and center James Wiseman (wrist) have both been given the green light to get back in action for Tuesday's contest against the Knicks.

Columbus Blue Jackets goaltender Joonas Korpisalo will earn his 13th start of the season in Tuesday's matchup with the Blackhawks.

Brooklyn Nets small/power forward Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot (hip) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Kings due to a hip contusion, marking his first absence of the year. It's unclear how head coach Steve Nash could reallocate Luwawu-Cabarrot's workload, but Iman Shumpert and Noah Vonleh stand to benefit. Drawing DFS appeal primarily when absences […]

P.J. Tucker Probable Against Cleveland

Houston Rockets forward/center P.J. Tucker (quad) will likely play on Wednesday night against Cleveland. The veteran has been dealing with the injury but still managed to suit up on Monday night against Chicago. With DeMarcus Cousins no longer with the team and Christian Wood (ankle) out, he should be considered a dart throw value play […]

Kyle Lowry Ruled Out For Tuesday’s Game

Toronto Raptors point guard Kyle Lowry (thumb) will miss Tuesday's contest against the 76ers due to a left thumb sprain. Lowry's absence marks his fourth straight game on the sidelines, allowing Fred Vanvleet and Norman Powell to continue seeing an increased offensive workload. Deandre Bembry has started each of the past three games in Lowry's […]

Tristan Jarry Goes For Third Straight Win

Pittsburgh Penguins goaltender Tristan Jarry will try to register a third straight victory on Tuesday in Washington.
