Memphis Grizzlies power forward/center Brandon Clarke (calf), shooting guard/small forward Desmond Bane (personal), and point/shooting guard De'Anthony Melton (shoulder) have all been ruled out for Friday's game versus the Lakers. Clarke's absence marks his fourth straight contest out of the mix, with Bane having stepped into the starting five in his place. With Memphis down […]

Miami Scratches Tyler Herro Late Thursday

Miami Heat point/shooting guard Tyler Herro has been ruled out for Thursday's game versus the Rockets due to the league's health and safety protocols. News of the scratch did not come until just prior to tip-off, but the contest will move forward without Herro in the mix. Kendrick Nunn already figured to see an increased […]

Cole Anthony, Evan Fournier Headline Magic Absences Thursday

Orlando Magic point guard Cole Anthony (shoulder) and shooting guard/small forward Evan Fournier (back) are among a group of Magic players unavailable to suit up Thursday versus Golden State. Guard/forward Michael Carter-Williams (foot) and forward Al-Farouq Aminu (knee) are also out, leaving the team's backcourt and wing tremendously short-handed. Frank Mason III figures to see […]

Mason Plumlee Ruled Out Thursday; Isaiah Stewart Will Start

Detroit Pistons center Mason Plumlee (elbow) was a late scratch for Thursday's game versus Indiana, paving the way for Isaiah Stewart to enter the starting five for the first time in his career.

Frank Ntilikina Tests Negative For COVID-19, Still Out Friday

New York Knicks point guard Frank Ntilikina will miss Friday's contest versus the Wizards as he remains in the league's health and safety protocols due to contact tracing. Ntilikina has reportedly tested negative for COVID-19, but he has still not suited up since Dec. 29 due to injury and a crowded backcourt. The recent acquisition […]

Rajon Rondo Remains Unavailable For Friday’s Game

Atlanta Hawks point guard Rajon Rondo (back) has been ruled out for the second consecutive contest Friday against the Spurs as he continues to battle lower back pain.

Semi Ojeleye Makes Second Start Of Season Thursday

Boston Celtics small/power forward Semi Ojeleye has been bumped into the starting five for Thursday's game versus the Raptors. Ojeleye has held down a consistent role with the second unit, but he has not scored more than six points in an outing since Jan. 15, which makes him a tenuous DFS asset. Tristan Thompson has […]

D'Angelo Russell Will Miss Friday’s Contest

Minnesota Timberwolves point/shooting guard D'Angelo Russell (leg) will remain sidelined for Friday's game versus the Hornets as he continues to be hampered by a sore left leg. Injuries have torpedoed Russell's production this season, with Ricky Rubio in line to continue seeing increased minutes as the team's starting PG. After playing for a prolonged period […]

Anthony Davis’ Status For Friday’s Contest Remains Murky

Los Angeles Lakers power forward/center Anthony Davis (Achilles) has his status for Friday's game versus the Grizzlies up in the air as he continues to battle right Achilles soreness. Davis has missed the team's past two contests due to the injury, with Kyle Kuzma reaping the benefits of an increased workload. Davis' status appears as […]

Bradley Beal Will Miss Friday’s Game

Washington Wizards shooting guard Bradley Beal (rest) will be absent from Friday's contest against the Knicks due to rest purposes, marking the first time this season that the league's leading scorer has been absent without an injury designation. The move is certainly a curious one with a back-to-back scheduled for Sunday/Monday for the Wizards, which […]

Maurice Harkless Cleared To Suit Up Thursday

Miami Heat small/power forward Maurice Harkless (thigh) has been given the thumbs up to play in Thursday's game against the Rockets, marking a return to action for the first time since Jan. 23. Harkless has combined for just 12 points across his first nine contests, an indication of the minimal role that he has played […]

OG Anunoby, Yuta Watanabe Remain Out Thursday

Toronto Raptors small/power forwards OG Anunoby (calf) and Yuta Watanabe (ankle) have both been ruled out for Thursday's contest versus the Celtics. Anunoby appears to be progressing toward a return in the near future, as he has joined the team on its road trip, but Toronto will remain thin on the wing for at least […]

Jesse Puljujarvi Set To Miss Thursday's Contest

Edmonton Oilers forward Jesse Puljujarvi will miss Thursday's game versus the Montreal Canadiens after getting placed on the league's COVID-19 list. While it has not been determined how long the 22-year-old might miss, the news comes after Puljujarvi had started to show a little life offensively with three goals over his past four games. After […]

Mike Smith To Start For Edmonton On Thursday

Edmonton Oilers goaltender Mike Smith will get the call to protect the crease as his team takes on the Montreal Canadiens on Thursday. The 38-year-old made his season debut on Monday - stopping 27 of 28 shots against in a 3-1 victory over the Ottawa Senators. Despite having spent most of the young season on […]

Jake Allen Squares Off Against Oilers On Thursday

Montreal Canadiens goaltender Jake Allen will make his sixth start of the campaign as his team hosts the Edmonton Oilers on Thursday. The eight-year NHL veteran last played in a 2-1 victory over the Ottawa Senators last Saturday in which he sparkled in stopping 34 of 35 shots against. In the midst of his first […]

Connor Hellebuyck Draws Start Versus Senators

Winnipeg Jets goaltender Connor Hellebuyck will start in net as his team welcomes the Ottawa Senators to Bell MTS Place on Thursday night.

Mattias Ekholm Week-To-Week Due To Injury

Nashville Predators defenseman Mattias Ekholm has been listed as week-to-week with an undisclosed injury. The Swedish rearguard only skated 11:29 in Tuesday's match-up with the Tampa Bay Lightning before having to leave the contest. The injury news comes as a big loss to a Nashville team that has won just one out of the past […]

Semyon Varlamov Guards The Cage Versus Pittsburgh

New York Islanders goaltender Semyon Varlamov will man the crease as his team hosts the visiting Pittsburgh Penguins on Thursday night. The 32-year-old is fresh off an immaculate performance on Monday in which he stopped all 30 shots faced in a 2-0 victory over the New York Rangers. Off to a tremendous start in 2020-2021, […]

Casey DeSmith Gets The Nod On Thursday

Pittsburgh Penguins goaltender Casey DeSmith will take the crease as his team faces off against the New York Islanders on Thursday. The 27-year-old last dressed in a 3-1 loss to the New York Rangers on Feb. 1, when he allowed two goals on 23 shots against. The Penguins backup netminder has had good results in […]

Connor Murphy Out Due To Injury

Chicago Blackhawks defenseman Connor Murphy (hip) is expected to miss the next 10 to 14 days due to a hip injury. The 'Hawks second-pair rearguard last played this past Sunday, when he logged 20:55 of ice time in a 2-1 overtime win versus the Dallas Stars. The 27-year-old has posted five points (two goals, three […]

Cole Anthony Questionable Against Warriors Thursday

Orlando Magic point guard Cole Anthony (shoulder) suffered a shoulder strain on Tuesday, but the injury is considered muscular and there is no MRI scheduled at this point. This is great news for Anthony, indicating the rookie will not be looking at an extended absence. Anthony is considered questionable Thursday against the Golden State Warriors […]

Seth Curry Available On Thursday

Philadelphia 76ers guard Seth Curry (ankle) is available for Thursday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He was dealing with a minor ankle sprain, but it sounds like he can play through the issue. Curry dropped 22 points including four buckets from beyond the arc during Tuesday's game versus the Sacramento Kings. It finally sounds […]

Shake Milton Doubtful Versus Blazers

Philadelphia 76ers guard Shake Milton (ankle) is listed as doubtful for Thursday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He suffered a left ankle sprain during Tuesday's game, so the team might take the cautious approach here. Furkan Korkmaz and Tyrese Maxey would be asked to step up without Milton available. Korkmaz has been heating up […]

Michael Carter-Williams Questionable For Thursday

Orlando Magic guard Michael Carter-Williams (foot) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Golden State Warriors. He has not appeared in a game since early January, but the Magic desperately need guard help. The injury bug has taken out their guard depth, so having Carter-Williams back would be helpful. He'd likely be under […]

Devonte' Graham Questionable For Friday

Charlotte Hornets guard Devonte' Graham (groin) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He has missed each of the last three games due to a groin strain. It sounds like Graham is making progress, but the team might wait until closer to game time before making a final decision. LaMelo Ball […]

Yuta Watanabe Doubtful Versus Celtics

Toronto Raptors forward Yuta Watanabe (ankle) is listed as doubtful for Thursday's game against the Boston Celtics. He hasn't been a huge part of the rotation, but has earned minutes recently with the Raptors being shorthanded. OG Anunoby (calf) is questionable for this game and is on the verge of returning. Watanabe is expected to […]

OG Anunoby Questionable For Thursday

Toronto Raptors forward OG Anunoby (calf) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Boston Celtics. This would be a huge boost for Toronto since Anunoby was playing the best basketball of his career before suffering a left calf strain. He has been out since late January, but is on the verge of returning. […]

Robert Williams III Won't Suit Up Thursday

Boston Celtics center Robert Williams III (hip) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Toronto Raptors. This won't change the rotation too much, though, since Williams is normally behind Daniel Theis and Tristan Thompson. However, Williams is still worth monitoring in fantasy leagues. Theis should see the biggest boost from the absence of […]

Shaquil Barrett Looking To Break The Bank

Tampa Bay Buccaneers impending free-agent pass-rusher Shaquil Barrett, who played the 2020 season under the franchise tag, feels that he's earned a big contract this offseason after helping the team win Super Bowl LV.
