Dennis Smith Jr. Out Against Magic

Detroit Pistons guard Dennis Smith Jr. (knee) is out once again on Monday night. The 23-year-old has missed his previous 11 contests due to left knee soreness, and with the 2021 campaign coming to an end, we may have seen the last of him this season. Cory Joseph (ankle) is also out against Orlando, so […]

Dennis Schroder Will Sit Out Against Raptors

Los Angeles Lakers guard Dennis Schroder will not play against Toronto on Sunday night. The veteran will miss time to adhere to the league's safety protocols surrounding COVID-19. Schroder is no stranger to the policy, as he popped up on the list back in February and didn't play in four games as a result. Without […]

Devonte' Graham Available Versus Heat

Charlotte Hornets guard Devonte Graham (knee) will be available for Sunday's game against the Miami Heat. He was questionable coming into the game, but it sounds like he felt fine during pregame warmups. Graham is expected to come off the bench with LaMelo Ball moving into the starting five. He should still see enough touches […]

Mike Conley Won't Play Monday

Utah Jazz guard Mike Conley (hamstring) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. This marks the fourth game in a row that Conley has been sidelined. The fact he is being ruled out a full day in advance is not good news for fantasy managers. The Jazz are likely being […]

Dejounte Murray, DeMar DeRozan Out On Sunday

San Antonio Spurs guard Dejounte Murray (rest, knee) and forward DeMar DeRozan (rest) will be sidelined for Sunday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. This shouldn't come as a surprise given it's the front end of a back-to-back set. Lonnie Walker IV, Devin Vassell, and Patty Mills should see significant roles in the offense on Sunday. […]

LaMelo Ball Remains In Starting Five

Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball (rest) will remain in the starting five for Sunday's game against the Miami Heat. The young guard recently returned from injury, so there was some thought that he'd sit this one out to rest. Despite it being a back-to-back set, Ball will be out there. Fantasy managers should feel comfortable […]

Kemba Walker Remains Sidelined Sunday

Boston Celtics guard Kemba Walker (oblique) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He'll miss his fourth game in a row, but the team continues to call him day-to-day. Marcus Smart, Evan Fournier, and Payton Pritchard will see more minutes on Sunday. Smart is the best fantasy option out of […]

Devonte' Graham Could Miss Another Game

Charlotte Hornets guard Devonte' Graham (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Miami Heat. He was a late scratch from Saturday's contest due to a knee issue. It sounds like he'll test it out pregame and see whether or not he can give it a go. LaMelo Ball and Malik Monk would […]

Curry began the month of May in similar fashion to how he performed all throughout April, where the 33-year-old put […]

Darius Garland Doesn’t Suit Up On Saturday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Darius Garland (ankle) didn't play on Saturday against Miami. The 21-year-old sprained his left ankle during Friday's loss to the Wizards and was replaced against the Heat by Cedi Osman, who finished with a 15-point, 11-rebound double-double. If Garland doesn't suit up on Tuesday against Phoenix, which is possible considering how much […]

James Harden Not Close To Returning

Brooklyn Nets guard James Harden (hamstring) isn't close to returning, according to head coach Steve Nash. The former MVP hasn't played since the beginning of April while tending to a strained right hamstring. With the team looking toward the playoffs and an NBA Championship, it wouldn't be a surprise if Harden weren't available for the […]

Frank Jackson Scores 25 Points Against Hornets

Detroit Pistons guard Frank Jackson posted 25 points, seven rebounds, three assists, and one steal in 34 minutes off the bench during Saturday's loss to the Hornets. He also went 6-for-11 from downtown. With injuries to several guards on the Pistons, Jackson has been taking advantage of his extra playing time and has now posted […]

Kemba Walker Unlikely To Play Sunday

Boston Celtics guard Kemba Walker (oblique) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers.

Oklahoma City Thunder point/shooting guard Luguentz Dort (hip) and small forward Aleksej Pokusevski (knee) have both been ruled out for Saturday's contest against Indiana.

Mike Conley Will Miss Third Straight Game Saturday

Utah Jazz point guard Mike Conley (hamstring) has been ruled out for Saturday's contest versus the Raptors as he continues to work through a tight right hamstring. Joe Ingles has served as the team's de facto PG in Conley's absence, a role that he figures to reprise so long as both Conley and Donovan Mitchell […]

Darius Garland, Isaiah Hartenstein, Lamar Stevens Out Saturday

The Cleveland Cavaliers will be significantly short-handed for Saturday's game versus the Heat as point guard Darius Garland (ankle), center Isaiah Hartenstein (concussion) and small forward Lamar Stevens (concussion) have all been deemed unavailable.

Donovan Mitchell Will Miss At Least Five More Games

Utah Jazz point/shooting guard Donovan Mitchell (ankle) was evaluated by the team's medical staff Saturday and it was determined that the All-Star will remain sidelined for at least the next week, putting him on the sidelines for the next five contests.

Donte DiVincenzo Will Miss Friday’s Contest

Milwaukee Bucks point/shooting guard Donte Divincenzo (toe) has been ruled out for Friday's game against Chicago due to a sore toe. His absence opens the door for Bryn Forbes to see a significant bump in both usage and minutes, whether it be among the starting five or coming off the bench. After some flashes of […]

Trae Young Returns For Friday’s Game

Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young (ankle) is back in the mix for Friday's contest versus Philadelphia. After he sustained a sprained ankle back on April 21, there was concern that Young could be in line for an extended absence, but after only four games on the sidelines, he returns to face a Philly squad […]

Collin Sexton Will Return For Friday’s Game

Cleveland Cavaliers point/shooting guard Collin Sexton (concussion) has been given the green light to get back into action for Friday's contest versus Washington. Sexton has missed each of the team's three previous games due to the ailment, paving the way for Darius Garland to take on an elevated workload out of the backcourt. Prior to […]

LaMelo Ball, Malik Monk Questionable For Saturday

Charlotte Hornets point guard LaMelo Ball (wrist) and shooting guard Malik Monk (ankle) have both been deemed questionable to suit up for Saturday's contest versus the Pistons. Ball's potential return to action is the headliner here, as the Rookie of the Year candidate had been averaging 15.9 points, 6.1 assists and 5.9 rebounds per game […]

LeBron James Set To Return To Action Friday

Los Angeles Lakers point guard/small forward LeBron James (ankle) is expected to be back on the floor Friday versus the Kings so long as he comes through warm-ups healthy.

Collin Sexton Goes Through Shootaround Friday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Collin Sexton (concussion) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Washington Wizards. He was able to get through shootaround on Friday, but needs to pass one more test before being cleared by the league. Cedi Osman, Isaac Okoro, and possibly Darius Garland would lose minutes and usage, assuming Sexton is […]

Kemba Walker Misses Third Straight Game

Boston Celtics guard Kemba Walker (oblique) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. The veteran guard will miss his third game in a row here, so it's anyone's guess when he'll suit up again. Marcus Smart is expected to draw the start here after serving his one-game suspension last game. […]

Kyrie Irving, Blake Griffin Available On Friday

Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving (groin) and forward Blake Griffin (rest) are available for Friday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. It's the second game of a back-to-back, which normally means Griffin would sit. However, he only played 14 minutes on Thursday and will be asked to suit up with Kevin Durant (rest) sidelined. At […]

Stephen Curry Scores 37 Points In Thursday's Loss

Golden State Warriors point guard Stephen Curry overcame a quiet start to post another 30-point game on Thursday against Minnesota, but his 37 points on 11-for-27 shooting weren't enough to get avoid a 126-114 loss. Curry's three-ball didn't drop early in the game, but he had a 16-point third quarter and finished with a decent […]
