Washington Wizards guard Russell Westbrook finished with 26 points, 14 rebounds, 10 assists, and one steal in 39 minutes during Wednesday's loss to the Kings. Westbrook now has a triple-double in two of the past three games and has posted at least 23 points and 10 assists in the last three games. The guard has […]

De'Aaron Fox Goes For 28 Points

Sacramento Kings guard De'Aaron Fox went for 28 points, one rebound, seven assists, and five steals in 36 minutes during Wednesday's win over the Wizards. In the last five games played, Fox has posted at least 28 points in all of them even though he is averaging 23.6 points per game this season. The youngster's […]

Theo Maledon And Luguentz Dort Questionable Against Hawks

Oklahoma City Thunder guards Theo Maledon (thumb) and Luguentz Dort (toe) are questionable to play Thursday against the Atlanta Hawks. Maledon returned Tuesday from a one-game absence due to a sprained ankle and played 32 minutes, but picked up a thumb injury on his off hand. Dort, on the other hand, has now missed two […]

Ben McLemore Remains Sidelined With Ankle Injury

Houston Rockets guard Ben McLemore (ankle) has been ruled out Wednesday against the Golden State Warriors. McLemore missed the first leg of the back-to-back as well and Kevin Porter Jr. was given a ton of minutes. With Victor Oladipo (rest) out as well, Porter should see huge usage in the backcourt Wednesday. The good news […]

Aaron Gordon, Evan Fournier, Terrence Ross Questionable

Three key Orlando Magic players have picked up questionable designations for Thursday's contest against the Knicks. Point guard/power forward Aaron Gordon (ankle, rest) and shooting guard/small forward Evan Fournier (groin) were both able to practice Wednesday, while shooting guard/small forward Terrence Ross (knee) has also been deemed questionable. With the roster completely in flux, Nikola […]

D.J. Wilson, D.J. Augustin Join Rockets Mix

Power forward/center D.J. Wilson and point guard D.J. Augustin have been traded to the Houston Rockets in a four-player swap that was completed Wednesday. Wilson is the more tantalizing of the two due to his age (25) and athleticism for a team that is lacking current frontcourt depth. Augustin appeared in 37 games (six starts) […]

Mike Conley Will Miss Thursday’s Contest

Utah Jazz point guard Mike Conley (hamstring, rest) has been deemed unavailable for Thursday's game against the Wizards as the team monitors his workload stemming from hamstring injuries. Conley has been in a solid offensive rhythm as of late, knocking down three triples in four consecutive contests. Without him in the mix, Donovan Mitchell should […]

Frank Jackson Draws Start Wednesday

Detroit Pistons point/shooting guard Frank Jackson shifts into the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Raptors, marking his first start of the year. Jackson played a season-high 18 minutes versus San Antonio on Wednesday, dropping 10 points on 4-for-7 shooting. With Wayne Ellington (adductor) still down, Jackson will shift to the first unit, while […]

Pascal Siakam, Fred VanVleet Cleared For Return Wednesday

Toronto Raptors power forward/center Pascal Siakam, point/shooting guard Fred VanVleet, shooting guard/small forward Patrick McCaw and point guard Malachi Flynn have all been given the green light to return to action Wednesday against the Pistons after clearing the league's health and safety protocols. Siakam has missed Toronto's past six games, while VanVleet has been on […]

Tyrese Haliburton Enters The Starting Lineup

Sacramento Kings guard Tyrese Haliburton will enter the starting five on Wednesday against the Wizards. The injury to Marvin Bagley III (hand) opened up a slot in the starting lineup, and head coach Luke Walton gave the honors to Haliburton. The rookie has been effective coming off the bench this season, though this is a […]

Kemba Walker, Tristan Thompson Won't Play Against Cleveland

Boston Celtics guard Kemba Walker (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Cleveland. Center Tristan Thompson (health and safety protocols) remains out. Neither absence is surprising, given that Walker generally has been rested on the second half of back-to-backs this year- and Thompson has already been sidelined for one game. Jayson Tatum and […]

Fred Vanvleet Upgraded To Questionable

Toronto Raptors guard Fred VanVleet has been upgraded to questionable for Wednesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. He was able to practice on Tuesday after being sidelined recently due to COVID-19. It sounds like Vanvleet is getting closer to playing, but it's uncertain if he'll suit up for Wednesday. Norman Powell would gain the most […]

Victor Oladipo Won't Play Wednesday

Houston Rockets guard Victor Oladipo (rest) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Golden State Warriors. It's the second night of a back-to-back set, so it's not shocking to see Oladipo sitting out. His absence will be more minutes for Kevin Porter Jr. and Sterling Brown. Porter is expected to see heavy minutes […]

Kemba Walker, Tristan Thompson Out On Wednesday

Boston Celtics guard Kemba Walker (rest) and center Tristan Thompson have been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Celtics continue to be cautious with Walker and Thompson is out due to the NBA's health and safety guidelines. Marcus Smart, Payton Pritchard, and Jeff Teague will be asked to split up the […]

Kyrie Irving Won't Play On Wednesday

Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving (groin) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Indiana Pacers. This doesn't sound like too serious of an issue, but the team wants to take the cautious approach here. James Harden will be asked to do the heavy lifting on offense. He'll be a popular DFS option, while […]

Lonzo Ball Hands Out Career-High 17 Assists

New Orleans Pelicans guard Lonzo Ball scored 11 points with a career-high 17 assists in a losing effort to the Trail Blazers on Tuesday. Ball added three rebounds, three triples, and two steals in 35 minutes. The former Bruin had just two turnovers, so it was a very efficient and impressive performance given the difficulty […]

Damian Lillard Leads Comeback Win With 50 Points, 10 Assists

Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard put up another MVP-worthy performance in Tuesday's comeback win over the Pelicans. Lillard scored a season-high 50 points with 10 assists, six rebounds, and six triples in 41 minutes. He made all 18 free throws, including two to give his team the lead for good late in the fourth […]

Ben Simmons Goes For Double-Double In Tuesday's Win

Philadelphia 76ers point guard Ben Simmons produced his 12th double-double of the season in Tuesday's victory over the Knicks, finishing with 16 points and 13 rebounds. He shot 8-for-14 from the field and added seven assists to his line with three turnovers in 34 minutes. Simmons was a regular in the double-double column at the […]

Jordan Clarkson Scores 20 Points Off Bench

Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson recorded 20 points, three rebounds, and three assists in 30 minutes off the bench during Tuesday's win over Boston. Though averaging 17.9 points per game this season, Clarkson has posted at least 20 points in three of the last five games dating back to before the All-Star break. Despite his […]

C.J. McCollum Will Be On A Minutes Limit Tuesday

Portland Trail Blazers guard C.J. McCollum (foot) will be on a minutes limit Tuesday against the New Orleans Pelicans. Head coach Terry Stotts did note it will not be a "hard" minutes restriction, but McCollum won't hit his normal 34 minutes per game average. With McCollum back, Gary Trent Jr. should see a huge hit […]

Elfrid Payton Officially Out Against Sixers

New York Knicks point guard Elfrid Payton (hamstring) will not play Tuesday against the Philadelphia 76ers. Payton was doubtful to play the second half of a back-to-back set after missing Monday so this comes at no surprise. The Knicks will be very shorthanded Tuesday with Derrick Rose (health and safety protocols) and Austin Rivers (personal) […]

Elfrid Payton Doubtful To Play Against Sixers

New York Knicks guard Elfrid Payton (hamstring) is listed as doubtful for Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He missed Monday's game and it's highly unlikely that he suits up here. Payton continues to battle with a lingering hamstring issue, which seem to take quite a while to fully heal. Derrick Rose remains out due […]

Luguentz Dort Questionable For Tuesday

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Luguentz Dort (toe) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He missed Sunday's game due to a sprained toe and could very well sit here as well. His absence would mean more minutes for Justin Jackson, but that doesn't mean much for fantasy managers. The trade of […]

Jordan McLaughlin, Jarrett Culver Likely To Sit On Tuesday

Minnesota Timberwolves guards Jordan McLaughlin and Jarrett Culver (toe) are both expected to miss Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. McLaughlin continues to remain sidelined due to the NBA's health and safety protocols. Culver is listed as doubtful, but he has missed four straight games. There is a good chance he remains sidelined once […]

D'Angelo Russell Continues To Be Sidelined

Minnesota Timberwolves guard D'Angelo Russell (knee) won't suit up for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. He underwent arthroscopic left knee surgery and his return is likely to be delayed, according to head coach Chris Finch. There were rumors that Russell would begin on-court work last weekend, but that didn't happen. Fantasy managers can […]

Dejounte Murray Registers Double-Double In Spurs Win

San Antonio Spurs point guard Dejounte Murray led the team to a 109-99 victory over Detroit on Monday with a 19-point, 10-rebound double-double. He also had six assists and one steal in 33 minutes, while shooting a very good 9-for-13 from the field. Murray is among the best rebounding guards in the league, and he […]

James Harden Collects Second Consecutive Triple-Double

Brooklyn Nets guard James Harden made it two triples-doubles in two games on Monday, finishing a 117-112 win over the Knicks with 21 points, 15 rebounds, and 15 assists. It wasn't a good shooting night by him as he went 0-for-5 from downtown and 6-for-15 from the field, but the Beard always finds ways to […]

Kyrie Irving Scores Game-High 34 Points

Brooklyn Nets point guard Kyrie Irving went for a game-high 34 points in Monday's meeting with the Knicks, shooting 13-for-18 from the field, including 4-for-6 from downtown. He finished things off in a 117-112 win with four assists, one rebound, and one steal. Irving has now scored at least 30 points in nine of his […]

Stephen Curry Racks Up 27 Points In Just 29 Minutes

Golden State Warriors point guard Stephen Curry didn't need much time on the court to produce a 27-point performance on Monday as he logged only 29 minutes in a blowout loss against the Lakers. He shot 9-for-17 from the field, including 4-for-7 from behind the arc, and went 5-for-5 with his free throws. Curry finished […]

Malcolm Brogdon Leads Pacers With 24 Points

Indiana Pacers point guard Malcolm Brogdon scored a team-high 24 points on 9-for-16 shooting in Monday's loss to Denver, adding six rebounds and four assists with one turnover in 33 minutes. Domantas Sabonis had a quiet night with 10 points and 10 boards, while Caris Levert finished his second game as a Pacer on 17 […]
