D'Angelo Russell Picks Up Questionable Tag For Monday

Minnesota Timberwolves point/shooting guard D'Angelo Russell has been deemed questionable to play Monday against the Toronto Raptors due to a right quad contusion. Russell has not yet made his debut with Minnesota since the blockbuster Trade Deadline swap that saw Andrew Wiggins head back to Golden State, but Russell will presumably take on a considerable […]

Derrick Rose Unlikely To Return For Monday’s Contest

Detroit Pistons point/shooting guard Derrick Rose has been deemed doubtful to play in Monday’s game versus the Charlotte Hornets due to a left hip/adductor injury. Rose is on track to miss his fifth consecutive game due to the ailment, thereby paving the way for Reggie Jackson to continue among the starting five, where he has […]

Kenta Maeda May Still End Up With Twins

Los Angeles Dodgers starter Kenta Maeda may still end up joining the Minnesota Twins, even though the original three-team trade has fallen through. According to Jon Heyman, the Dodgers and Twins are working on a deal that would see Maeda go to the Twins, while Brusdar Graterol would head to the Dodgers. Maeda produced a […]

Zach LaVine, Daniel Gafford Set To Suit Up Sunday

The Chicago Bulls will have both shooting guard Zach LaVine and center Daniel Gafford at their disposal for Sunday’s contest versus the Philadelphia 76ers. Both entered the day with questionable designations, although LaVine has yet to miss a contest this season, even as he has been a frequenter of the team’s injury report. Gafford has […]

Eric Gordon To Miss Sunday’s Outing

Houston Rockets shooting guard/small forward Eric Gordon has been ruled out for Sunday’s game versus the Utah Jazz due to a leg contusion. Gordon’s last time facing the Jazz resulted in an epic career-high 50-point eruption, albeit that came without James Harden or Russell Westbrook available. Both will be back on the floor Sunday, with […]

Bruno Fernando Will Return Sunday, Have Minutes Capped

Atlanta Hawks center Bruno Fernando will be back in the rotation for Sunday’s contest against the New York Knicks, but will face a restriction of 15 minutes as he works his way back from a calf injury. Fernando had missed five of the Hawks’ six most recent outings, having lost his spot in the starting […]

Al Horford Given Green Light To Suit Up Sunday

Philadelphia 76ers power forward/center Al Horford has been cleared to play in Sunday’s contest against the Chicago Bulls after having previously been deemed questionable due to left Achilles soreness. Horford has been particularly aggressive from long range over his last four outings, getting up an average of 6.5 triples on a nightly basis. The Bulls’ […]

Trae Young, De’Andre Hunter Cleared To Suit Up Sunday

The Atlanta Hawks will have both point guard Trae Young and small/power forward De’Andre Hunter available for Sunday’s contest against the New York Knicks. Both had been deemed questionable coming into the day, as Young will return to the mix following a one-game absence due to a right ankle sprain, which forces Jeff Teague back […]

Darius Bazley Unavailable For Second Half Sunday

Oklahoma City Thunder power forward Darius Bazley has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday’s contest against the Boston Celtics due to a sprained right knee. During the first half, Bazley collected three points on 1-for-2 shooting across just three minutes. His absence in the second unit likely paves the way for Abdel Nader […]

Torey Krug Scores Only Bruins Goal In Sunday's Loss

Boston Bruins defenseman Torey Krug was the team's only goal-scorer in Sunday's 3-1 loss to Detroit, tying things up at the start of the third period with his eighth goal of the season. David Pastrnak and Patrice Bergeron delivered the assists. Krug was hunting for a goal all game and ended up with six shots […]

Andreas Athanasiou Scores Twice As Detroit Shocks Boston

Detroit Red Wings forward Andreas Athanasiou scored two goals in Sunday's 3-1 shock win against the Bruins. Brendan Perlini also scored for the Wings, who picked up only their 14th win of the season. Jonathan Bernier pulled off a 39-save performance. Athanasiou is a talented speedster, but he's struggled to stay healthy this season and […]

Gordon Hayward Returns Versus Thunder

Boston Celtics forward Gordon Hayward (foot) will return to the starting five for Sunday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He missed Friday's game versus the Atlanta Hawks due to left foot soreness. The Celtics are getting healthy again after being shorthanded earlier in the week. Hayward should resume his normal role on the team […]

De'Andre Hunter is Questionable for Sunday

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the New York Knicks. He's been on the injury report basically all week, but has been able to play through the issues. Cam Reddish (head) remains out of the rotation right now, so Hunter is going to see increased playing time. […]

Trae Young is Questionable Versus Knicks

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the New York Knicks. He was not able to play during Friday's game due to a bruised right ankle. Jeff Teague and Brian Goodwin saw more minutes without Young available, so that'll likely happen again if Young is unable to play. […]

Tyler Herro is Listed as Out for Sunday

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (ankle) is downgraded to out for Sunday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He'll miss his third game in a row due to right ankle soreness, but his fantasy value wasn't great before the injury. Andre Iguodala and Jae Crowder should see more minutes in the rotation with Herro and […]

Jimmy Butler Won't Play Against Blazers

Miami Heat guard/forward Jimmy Butler (shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He didn't play on Friday and was unable to practice on Saturday. Butler will miss his second game in a row here due to a right shoulder strain. The MRI didn't reveal any structural damage, so hopefully […]

Nassir Little Will Miss Third Straight Game

Portland Trail Blazers forward Nassier Little (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Miami Heat. This marks the third game in a row that Little has missed due to a left ankle sprain. Trevor Ariza and Gary Trent Jr. will be asked to pick up the slack with Little sidelined. Trent is […]

Anfernee Simons is Unlikely to Play on Sunday

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (head) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Miami Heat. He left Friday's game due to a concussion, and he needs to pass the NBA's concussion protocol before being allowed to play. It's highly unlikely that it happens before tip-off, so fantasy owners should expect Simons to […]

Hassan Whiteside is Probable for Sunday

Portland Trail Blazers center Hassan Whiteside (leg) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Miami Heat. He sat out of Friday's game due to a left leg contusion, but it appears he's going to play here. Caleb Swanigan should head back to the second unit and lose most of his streaming appeal going […]

Jaylen Brown is Likely to Play on Sunday

Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Although, the Celtics injury report has Brown closer to probable than questionable for this one. The team is likely going to wait and see how he feels closer to tip-off. The Celtics have used a committee approach […]

Alec Burks, Glenn Robinson III Listed as Out for Sunday

Philadelphia 76ers guard Alec Burks and forward Glenn Robinson III are listed as out for Sunday's game against the Chicago Bulls. Both players still have yet to complete their physicals required to complete the trade. There's a chance they get them finished before tip-off, but both players will take significant hits in fantasy value with […]

Al Horford is Questionable Versus Chicago

Philadelphia 76ers forward Al Horford (Achilles) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chicago Bulls. Horford is dealing with left Achilles soreness, so it wouldn't be surprising to see the Sixers give him the day off. Joel Embiid (neck) is listed as questionable, but is expected to suit up here. Kyle O'Quinn (personal) […]

Patrick Beverley is Out on Sunday

Los Angeles Clippers guard Patrick Beverley (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He aggravated his groin on Wednesday and hasn't been able to suit up since then. Landry Shamet and Lou Williams should benefit the most with Beverley sidelined. Shamet has been playing well lately and should remain a […]

Kawhi Leonard Will Rest Against Cavs

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (rest) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. This is not surprising news as Leonard played 28 minutes during Saturday's blowout loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. Marcus Morris is expected to make his team debut and should see plenty of minutes without Leonard available. DFS […]

Marvin Bagley is Out Until After All-Star Break

Sacramento Kings forward Marvin Bagley (foot) has been ruled out until at least after the All-Star break. He'll be re-evaluated after the break, but it's unclear if he'll be able to play again this season. He's dealing with left foot soreness and the Kings are going to take the cautious approach. They won't let Bagley […]

Joel Embiid Will Play Against Bulls

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (neck) will suit up for Sunday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He was listed as questionable with neck stiffness, but it appears he's going to play here. It doesn't sound like he's going to be limited at all for this one. He could get more looks with Al Horford (Achilles) […]

BALLER MOVE: Add In 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 31% of leagues ANALYSIS: The Timberwolves have changed more than half of the players in their roster during the past few days leading up to the trade deadline.

Jordan Clarkson (PG/SG, UTA): Week 17 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add In 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 32% of leagues ANALYSIS: If you read our Waiver Wire blurbs weekly then you know I wrote about Malik Monk last weekend. It was surprising to find Monk with a very low ownership rate, but seeing Clarkson rostered in just 32% of Yahoo leagues is truly insane. […]

BALLER MOVE: Add In 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 26% of leagues ANALYSIS: When it comes to recently traded players it's always hard to assess the value they will have in their new surroundings.
