Jalen Brunson Iffy To Play Against Raptors

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson (ankle) is suffering from a left ankle sprain and has been tagged as questionable for Monday's game against the Toronto Raptors. As the leader of the offense, losing Brunson for any amount of time is a big blow to the Knicks. He's having a great season so far as […]

Jamal Murray Expected To Play Against Hawks

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (ankle) has been listed as probable to play against the Atlanta Hawks on Monday. The Canadian combo guard saw a string of missed games due to the ankle issue and has gotten a game off here and there since then. He was able to play around 30 minutes in the […]

Andrew Nembhard Ruled Out For Monday

Indiana Pacers guard Andrew Nembhard (knee) will miss another game due to a right knee bone bruise. The 23-year-old missed out on the in-season tournament championship game after playing just 14 minutes in the semifinal matchup. Nembhard has been ruled out again, but this is the only game that counts toward the regular season. Since […]

Jalen Suggs Tagged As Questionable For Monday

Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs (ankle) has been tagged as questionable for the Monday night game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The young combo guard originally hurt his ankle on Wednesday and it looked worse than it seems to be since Suggs is already up to a questionable status. He'll likely test out his ankle in […]

Kyrie Irving Has A Heel Contusion

Dallas Mavericks guard Kyrie Irving (heel) underwent an MRI after exiting Friday's win over the Portland Trail Blazers. Luckily, the veteran avoided a serious injury, with results revealing a heel contusion. Since then, he's returned to Dallas for treatment. However, the Mavs might be without him for a while, judging by Irving's history. The former […]

Ben Simmons Advances To Next Step In Rehab Process

According to the New York Post's Brian Lewis, Brooklyn Nets utility man Ben Simmons (back) has advanced to the next stage in his rehab process. The former Philadelphia 76er has battled a back injury, keeping him out of the lineup for over a month. Fortunately, his recent epidural procedure yielded positive results, so he's moving […]

Andrew Nembhard Ruled Out For NBA Cup Final

Indiana Pacers guard Andrew Nembhard (knee) won't play in the first-ever NBA Cup final on Saturday against the Lakers. He hurt his right knee in Indiana's in-season tournament semifinal victory over Milwaukee. Nembhard's role in the Pacers rotation has reduced this season, but he's still averaged over 18 minutes off the pine. T.J. McConnell looked […]

Alex Caruso Fails To Complete Friday's Game

Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso sprained his left ankle against the Spurs on Friday and couldn't complete the game. He had four points in 18 minutes with three rebounds, two assists, and one steal. It was a typical Caruso performance, but unfortunately, the hard-working guard picked up a new injury after already carrying a left […]

Jordan McLaughlin Back On Friday Evening

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Jordan McLaughlin (knee) will return for Friday's matchup against the Memphis Grizzlies. The 27-year-old hasn't played in a month, missing 14 games because of an MCL sprain. There's a chance he will see fewer minutes in his first game back. However, McLaughlin hadn't played well before going down with the injury, so […]

Chris Paul Out On Friday Night

Golden State Warriors guard Chris Paul (illness) won't play on Friday night versus OKC. The veteran missed two games with a leg injury before returning for Wednesday's meeting with the Portland Trail Blazers. However, he's not feeling well, so he'll miss another one. Nevertheless, without Paul in the lineup, rookie Brandin Podziemski could have some […]

Trae Young Out Versus Philly

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (illness) won't play in Friday's matchup against the Philadelphia 76ers. Young is under the weather and carried a questionable tag before getting ruled out. But now, Dejounte Murray will likely handle most of the duties at the one spot, meaning he'll probably see an uptick in scoring chances. At the […]

Chris Paul Questionable To Play On Friday

Golden State Warriors guard Chris Paul (illness) has popped back up on the injury report with an illness and is uncertain to play on Friday against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The veteran point guard returned from a two-game absence on Wednesday and didn't give much of a fantasy output. If he's able to suit up, […]

Jordan McLaughlin Has A Chance To Return On Friday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Jordan McLaughlin (knee) has been dealing with a right MCL sprain and hasn't played since November 6. He's officially listed as questionable for the team's game against the Memphis Grizzlies on Friday, so it seems he's trending in the right direction. Right now, the Timberwolves have the best record in the league, […]

Lonnie Walker IV Set To Miss Friday's Game

Brooklyn Nets guard Lonnie Walker IV (hamstring) will remain sidelined on Friday as he nurses a left hamstring strain. The 24-year-old has been playing some important minutes off of the bench so far this season, but the Nets draw an easier matchup against a weak Washington Wizards team on Friday. In Walker's absence, Dennis Smith […]

Jamal Murray Considered Probable For Friday

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (ankle) is listed as probable ahead of Friday's game against the Houston Rockets. Murray sat out on Saturday, but was able to return and play 29 minutes during Wednesday's game. It's uncertain if head coach Mike Malone will continue to have Murray under a minutes limit. If he does, Reggie […]

Malcolm Brogdon Questionable For Friday's Game

Portland Trail Blazers guard Malcolm Brogdon (knee) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. The veteran guard was forced to exit early during Wednesday's game due to right knee soreness. There's a good chance that the Blazers take the cautious approach and hold Brogdon out on Friday. Matisse Thybulle started during […]

Golden State Warriors guard Chris Paul (leg) will suit up for Wednesday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. The veteran guard has missed the last two games due to a left leg nerve contusion. Cory Joseph has been seeing more run in the rotation with Paul out. The assumption is that Paul is going to […]

Anfernee Simons To Play On Wednesday

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (thumb) will return to the starting five for the first time since Opening Night. The young guard suffered a torn UCL in his thumb and has been out ever since. He has been making good progress and will return to the starting unit for Wednesday's game against the Golden […]

Jamal Murray To Be Limited On Wednesday

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (ankle) will be under a minutes limit for Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. It looks like Murray will be back after missing Saturday's game due to a right ankle sprain. However, the Nuggets are going to be cautious and monitor his minutes. That being said, Reggie Jackson should […]

De'Anthony Melton Will Play On Wednesday

Philadelphia 76ers guard De'Anthony Melton (illness) was originally listed as probable so the fact he was upgraded to active doesn't come as a huge surprise. He'll be back in the starting five along with a fully healthy Sixers squad for the first time since Kelly Oubre Jr. (ribs) first got injured. Melton's fantasy value will […]

Landry Shamet Questionable For Wednesday's Game

Washington Wizards guard Landry Shamet (rib) is questionable for Wednesday's action against Philadelphia. He's likely desperate to play against his former team, but Shamet might have to sit out the contest due to a right rib sprain. Shamet has had some strong showing lately, scoring double figures in four of the last five games off […]

Anfernee Simons Listed As Questionable For Wednesday

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (thumb) is currently listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Golden State Warriors. Simons has been sidelined since Opening Night, but there's a chance he returns on Wednesday. Simons is working his way back from a torn UCL in his thumb, so the Blazers are expected to be […]

Tyrese Haliburton Tallies His First Triple-Double

Indiana Pacers point guard Tyrese Haliburton had a very memorable outing on Monday versus Boston, logging his first career triple-double with 26 points, 10 rebounds, and 13 assists. His night at the office included a spectacular four-point play late in the game when the score was tied at 105. It sparked an impressive scoring run […]

Andre Jackson Jr. Questionable Tuesday

Milwaukee Bucks guard Andre Jackson Jr. (back) is regarded as questionable for Tuesday's matchup against the Knicks. The 22-year-old rookie missed the weekend's action against Atlanta with a lower back issue and hasn't yet fully recovered. Jackson Jr. hasn't featured a lot for the Bucks, averaging 8.6 minutes per game, but he could currently have […]

LaMelo Ball Sheds Walking Boot

Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball (foot) is reportedly making progress and has shed his walking boot. The star guard is expected to be re-evaluated this week. He still has a noticeable limp, but appears to be making progress from his right ankle sprain. Possibly, Ball is able to return at the end of this week […]
