Aaron Holiday To Start On Wednesday

Houston Rockets guard Aaron Holiday will move into the starting five ahead of Wednesday's game against the Denver Nuggets. The Rockets have made the move to start Holiday with Fred VanVleet (thumb) sidelined for this game. It's the second game of a back-to-back set, so possibly the Rockets are just playing it safe and resting […]

Jamal Murray Considered Questionable Wednesday

Denver Nuggets point guard Jamal Murray (hamstring) is on the injury report as questionable ahead of Wednesday's matchup against Houston.

Jordan Clarkson Questionable For Wednesday's Action

Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson (thigh) is in danger of missing a second game in three matches on Wednesday against Memphis, with the team having listed him as questionable. He couldn't play on Saturday against New Orleans due to an illness and is now on the injury report with a thigh problem. His absence would […]

Dennis Smith Jr. Considered Questionable Tuesday

Brooklyn Nets point guard Dennis Smith Jr. (back) is considered questionable for Tuesday's in-season tournament matchup against the Raptors. He will miss a fifth consecutive game if Smith Jr. can't overcome a lower back strain. The 26-year-old has played a decent role off the bench this season, averaging 5.8 points and 3.2 assists in 17.0 […]

Derrick White Probable For Tuesday's Action

Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (illness) is considered probable for Tuesday's game versus Chicago. He's battling an illness, but the team will be desperate to have him available, with Jrue Holiday (ankle) already missing a couple of games and listed as questionable for Tuesday's action. White had a nice 15-point, 11-assist double-double with three steals […]

Alex Caruso Questionable Tuesday

Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (toe) could be absent for a second consecutive game, as the team has listed him as questionable for Tuesday's encounter with the Celtics. The 29-year-old is nursing a toe injury. He was initially able to play through the injury but missed a game against Brooklyn at the weekend. Patrick Williams […]

Jrue Holiday Tagged As Questionable Against Bulls

Boston Celtics guard Jrue Holiday (ankle) has been tagged questionable for the team's Tuesday night game against the Chicago Bulls. The All-Star point guard has missed the last two games with an ankle sprain but seems to be trending in the right direction. If he's unable to suit up though, Derrick White and Payton Pritchard […]

LaMelo Ball Considered Doubtful For Tuesday

Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball (ankle) is listed as doubtful for Tuesday's game against the New York Knicks due to his ankle sprain that he suffered in the last game. He had to leave their contest on Sunday in the second quarter after hurting his ankle again. His timetable should be monitored since he has […]

Jordan Poole Will Play On Monday Versus Pistons

Washington Wizards guard Jordan Poole (ankle) was forced to miss Saturday's game with an ankle sprain but is back in the lineup for their game against the Detroit Pistons on Monday night. Poole may be underwhelming for fantasy managers right now, but he continues to get every opportunity as the new face of the team […]

CJ McCollum Remains Out On Monday

New Orleans Pelicans guard CJ McCollum (lung) will miss a 12th consecutive game Monday versus the Jazz as he continues to recover from a small pneumothorax in his right lung. However, his return to the court shouldn't be far away anymore, as McCollum returned to full practice last Tuesday. McCollum was enjoying a fine start […]

Jaden Springer Continues To Battle An Illness

Philadelphia 76ers guard Jaden Springer (illness) could be unavailable for a second consecutive game Monday versus the Lakers, with the team listing him as questionable for the matchup. The 21-year-old sat out Saturday's game against the Thunder with an illness and hasn't yet fully recovered, which leaves his status in doubt for another game. Springer […]

Jordan Clarkson Picks Up Questionable Tag For Monday

Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson (illness) popped up on the injury report ahead of their Monday night contest against the New Orleans Pelicans. The veteran scorer is dealing with an illness and the team will likely see how he feels closer to tipoff. If he's unable to play like he was on Saturday, then Keyonte […]

Jordan Poole Uncertain To Play Against Pistons

Washington Wizards guard Jordan Poole (ankle) has officially been tagged as questionable for Monday night's game against the Detroit Pistons. The 24-year-old was a late scratch on Saturday as he picked up an ankle sprain in their game prior on Friday. Poole hasn't been as good as fantasy managers have hoped so far this season, […]

LaMelo Ball Leaves With Ankle Sprain On Sunday

Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball (ankle) left Sunday night's game against the Orlando Magic in the second quarter due to a right ankle sprain and the team said that he will not return. Brandon Miller started the second half with Ball sidelined. This could be worrisome news since ankle sprains and injuries were what kept […]

Darius Garland Will Suit Up On Sunday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Darius Garland (neck) was originally listed as questionable when he left their last game on Saturday due to a neck issue. He has since been upgraded to active and will join the starting five as usual. Isaac Okoro and Craig Porter Jr. will likely return to their normal workloads off of the […]

Fantasy Basketball Early-Week Streamers: Week 6

After an exciting start, it's week six of the 2023-2024 NBA season. While you want to have faith in the players you drafted, don't get too attached. You may feel confident about your draft decisions, but remember: stars are born and eroded every day. Take a moment to see what's on the other side of […]

Terry Rozier Expected To Return On Sunday

Charlotte Hornets guard Terry Rozier (groin) is expected to return for Sunday's meeting with the Orlando Magic. Rozier missed the last nine games because of a groin strain, which allowed others to benefit on the scoring end. Before going down, the 29-year-old had averaged a career-high 22 points. However, with Miles Bridges, LaMelo Ball, and […]

Jordan Poole Ruled Out Late On Saturday Night

Washington Wizards guard Jordan Poole (ankle) was a late scratch for Saturday's loss to the Atlanta Hawks. Fantasy managers were surprised to see him listed as out right around lock time. However, head coach Wes Unseld Jr. reported that the former Warrior "tweaked" his left ankle during pregame warm-ups, allowing Corey Kispert to take his […]

Darius Garland Doesn't Return Against The Lakers

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Darius Garland (neck) finished Saturday's matchup against the Lakers with six points, three assists, and one steal. Unfortunately, he didn't last long in this one, logging just 14 minutes before exiting with a neck strain. The injury isn't anything new, considering Garland has already missed time this season because of it. However, […]

Week 5: Dynasty Risers And Fallers For Fantasy Basketball

Welcome back, Rotoballers and dynasty managers! Hopefully, everyone had a great Thanksgiving and enjoyed some great Black Friday basketball. The in-season tournament is getting close to the knockout stages and we've already gotten some high-level hoops in the process. For all of you who decided to jump into a dynasty league, these in-season tournaments could […]

Dru Smith Done For The Year

Miami Heat guard Dru Smith (knee) will miss the remainder of the 2023-24 campaign. An MRI confirmed a third-degree ACL sprain for the 25-year-old, which was enough to keep him on the shelf. Smith had played sparingly throughout the season, averaging 4.3 points and 1.0 steals in nine games, so his absence isn't expected to […]

Dennis Smith Jr. Remains Out On Saturday

Brooklyn Nets guard Dennis Smith Jr. (back) will remain out for Saturday's meeting with the Miami Heat. He's day-to-day, so it appears he's nearing a return. But in the meantime, the 2017 No. 9 overall pick will miss a third consecutive contest. With Brooklyn still without Ben Simmons (back) and Cam Thomas (ankle) as well, […]

Donovan Mitchell May Miss Another Game On Saturday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (hamstring) is questionable ahead of Saturday's meeting with the Lakers. He's missed the previous four games because of a hamstring strain, so the team isn't taking any chances with the superstar. That said, Darius Garland, averaging 25 points, five assists, and three rebounds without Mitchell this season, would remain a […]

Donovan Mitchell May Return On Saturday Versus Lakers

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (hamstring) is officially considered questionable for the team's Saturday night game against the Los Angeles Lakers. The superstar combo guard hasn't played since November 15 as he's been dealing with a right hamstring strain. If he's able to play, that would deliver a hit to the fantasy value of Craig […]

Tyrese Haliburton Receives Questionable Status On Friday

Indiana Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton (wrist) has popped up on the injury report as questionable for the team's game on Friday against the Detroit Pistons. They're currently listing six different players as questionable for this game, three of them are two-way players. If Haliburton can't suit up, and Andrew Nembhard (back) also gets downgraded, then […]

Coby White Considered Questionable On Friday

Chicago Bulls guard Coby White (ankle) has been tagged as questionable on Friday due to left ankle soreness. The 23-year-old has come back to fantasy relevance this year after becoming the starting point guard again and averaging his highest minutes per contest of his career. White currently averages 12.8 points, 4.1 assists, 2.8 rebounds, and […]

Jrue Holiday Sidelined On Friday

Boston Celtics guard Jrue Holiday (ankle) won't play in Friday's matinee against Orlando. Holiday had been listed as probable as of Thursday night because of a sprained right ankle. However, he apparently suffered a setback, going from doubtful to out since then. The 33-year-old hasn't played the best in his first season with the Celtics, […]

Gary Payton II Probable To Return On Friday

Golden State Warriors guard Gary Payton II (foot) has missed the last three games with a left foot strain but is now listed as probable to return on Friday against the San Antonio Spurs. Payton's return will probably mean that Moses Moody and Cory Joseph take a hit to their fantasy relevance, while Brandin Podziemski […]
