Luka Doncic Returns To Lineup After One-Game Absence

Dallas Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic (quad) has been given the green light to take the floor for Monday's game versus the Rockets, ending his absence at just one contest. Dallas appears to have played it safe with their MVP candidate by sitting him Sunday on the first leg of a back-to-back, a contest in […]

Alec Burks, Dennis Smith Jr. Headline Monday’s Inactives

The New York Knicks will once again be without shooting guard Alec Burks (ankle) and point guard Dennis Smith Jr. (quad) for Monday's game against the Hawks. Burks and Smith lead a group that also includes Frank Ntilikina (knee), Obi Toppin (calf), and Omari Spellman (knee) on the sidelines. Without Burks, expect Reggie Bullock and […]

Darius Garland, Isaac Okoro Sidelined For Monday’s Game

Cleveland Cavaliers point/shooting guard Darius Garland (shoulder) and small forward Isaac Okoro (foot) have been ruled out for Monday's contest versus the Magic. Garland's absence will be his first of the year, allowing Damyean Dotson to enter the starting five in his place. Collin Sexton figures to take on an even larger offensive workload without […]

Marcus Smart Ruled Out For Monday’s Contest

Boston Celtics point/shooting guard Marcus Smart (thumb) will miss Monday's game versus the Raptors due to a sprained right thumb. With Jeff Teague (ankle) also sidelined, Payton Pritchard is in line to see a considerable workload, with Jaylen Brown also likely to see extended ball-handling opportunities, giving both added DFS upside. Smart has gotten off […]

James Harden Receives Green Light To Play Monday

Houston Rockets point/shooting guard James Harden (ankle) will suit up for Monday's contest against the Mavericks. Harden had earned a questionable designation after missing the team's most recent game. With Harden back on the floor, John Wall, Eric Gordon, and other key offensive cogs for Houston will revert back to their traditional fantasy appeal, as […]

Luka Doncic Likely To Play In Monday’s Contest

Dallas Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic (quad) has earned a probable designation for Monday's game versus the Rockets. Doncic was unable to suit up Sunday due to the injury, although it's unclear if the team was merely playing it safe with a back-to-back on tap. Without Doncic on the floor, Jalen Brunson delivered enormous production, […]

Darius Garland, Isaac Okoro Questionable To Suit Up Monday

Cleveland Cavaliers point/shooting guard Darius Garland (shoulder) and small forward Isaac Okoro (foot) are both questionable to participate in Monday's contest versus the Magic. Garland has shown signs of breaking out during his second season, averaging 17.2 points and 6.3 assists per contest over his first six games. Any absence would pave the way for […]

Memphis Inks Tim Frazier To Contract

The Memphis Grizzlies have brought aboard veteran point guard Tim Frazier, adding to the team's depth at the position with Ja Morant (ankle) and De'Anthony Melton (COVID-19) currently unavailable. Frazier appeared in 27 games (11 starts) last season for the Pistons, having averaged just 3.6 points and 3.4 assists per contest. When given the opportunity, […]

Jeff Teague Ruled Out For Monday’s Contest

Boston Celtics point guard Jeff Teague (ankle) will miss Monday's game versus the Raptors due to a sprained left ankle. Without Teague available off the bench, Payton Pritchard should be in line for an increased role as the backup PG. Further confounding Boston's backcourt situation, Marcus Smart (thumb) has been deemed questionable to play against […]

Marcus Smart Up In The Air For Monday's Game

Boston Celtics point/shooting guard Marcus Smart (thumb) is deemed questionable to play in Monday's game versus the Raptors as he battles a sprained thumb on his shooting hand. Smart has begun the season dishing out a career-best 6.7 assists per game as he has served as Boston's primary distributor with Kemba Walker (knee) unavailable. Smart's […]

Damian Lillard Delivers 32 Points Against Warriors

Portland Trail Blazers point guard Damian Lillard posted his fourth 30-point game of the season on Sunday against the Warriors, but his effort wasn't enough in an eventual 137-122 loss.

Jalen Brunson Scores 31 Points

Dallas Mavericks guard Jalen Brunson scored 31 points on 11-for-17 shooting in Sunday's loss to the Chicago Bulls. He also added seven assists, five rebounds, and a steal. Brunson was 3-for-7 from deep. While it wasn't the highest-scoring night of his NBA career, it was close. Brunson's performance was aided by the absence of Luka […]

Stephen Curry Explodes For Career-High 62 Points

Golden State Warriors point guard Stephen Curry put on a phenomenal show on Sunday against Portland, shooting 18-for-31 from the field and 8-for-16 from behind the arc en route to a career-high 62 points.

Murray was busy all night, shooting 13-for-20 from the field and 7-for-9 at the line. He had three triples with five rebounds, four assists, one steal, and zero turnovers. Murray missed Tuesday's […]

Luka Doncic Will Not Play Versus Chicago

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (quad) has been ruled out Sunday against the Chicago Bulls. Doncic, who was doubtful coming into the contest, must have picked up the injury in the win over the Miami Heat on Friday. However, this is the first leg of a back-to-back and could be a rest day for Doncic. […]

Derrick White Won't Suit Up On Sunday

San Antonio Spurs guard Derrick White (toe) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Utah Jazz. He made his season debut on Friday and played 20 minutes in the loss to the Los Angeles Lakers. The Spurs are likely going to be careful with White and ease him back into action. The team […]

Collin Sexton Drops Game-High 27 Points In Victory

Cleveland Cavaliers point/shooting guard Collin Sexton poured in a game-high 27 points during Saturday's win over Atlanta, marking his sixth straight contest passing the 20-point plateau to begin the year. In what has been a small sample size thus far, Sexton has embraced the role of No. 1 scoring option for the Cavs and has […]

Ben Simmons Records First Triple-Double Of Season In Win

Philadelphia 76ers point guard Ben Simmons finished Saturday's victory over Charlotte with 15 points, 12 rebounds, and 11 assists, logging his first triple-double of the new year. The 11 assists set a new season high, while Simmons shot 6-for-9 from the floor and 3-for-5 from the free-throw stripe. Having scored between nine and 16 points […]

Terry Rozier Lights Up 76ers, Goes For 35 Points

Charlotte Hornets point/shooting guard Terry Rozier rebounded with a strong offensive performance during Saturday's loss to Philadelphia, going for 35 points on 12-for-18 shooting overall, including 7-for-11 from behind the arc. In addition to the scoring, Rozier added three assists and two rebounds, giving him multiple contributions in those categories through each of his first […]

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Puts Together 16-5-7 Line

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander struggled with his shot in Saturday's win over Orlando, but he posted another nice all-around line with 16 points, seven assists, and five rebounds while committing only one turnover. He went only 5-for-17 from the field with an ugly 2-for-9 record from downtown, and that's now two games on […]

De'Aaron Fox Notches 23 Points In Saturday's Loss

Sacramento Kings point guard De'Aaron Fox scored a team-high 23 points on 8-for-19 shooting in Saturday's 102-94 loss to Houston, adding four assists, two rebounds, two steals, and one block with three turnovers. It wasn't a good shooting performance, but Fox did a little bit of everything and he's been producing well across the board […]

John Wall Scores Game-High 28 Points

Houston Rockets point guard John Wall scored a game-high 28 points on 11-for-21 shooting in Saturday's win over Sacramento. He added six assists, four rebounds, three steals, and two blocks with two triples and five turnovers. Wall's first couple of games for the Rockets have been very encouraging, and he's certainly not playing like a […]

Eric Bledsoe Scores In Double Figures For Second Straight Game

New Orleans Pelicans guard Eric Bledsoe recorded a double-double in a win over the Raptors. Bledsoe put up season-highs in points, 19, and assists, 10, as he helped lead his team to their second straight victory. It stands to reason that the veteran guard would see less usage on a Pelicans team with a lot […]

Derrick White Out, LaMarcus Aldridge Questionable On Sunday

San Antonio Spurs guard Derrick White (toe) is listed as out Sunday against the Utah Jazz after making his season debut on Friday while forward/center LaMarcus Aldridge (knee) is questionable.

LeBron James Continues To Draw Questionable Tag Sunday

Los Angeles Lakers point guard/small forward LeBron James (ankle) has once again earned a questionable designation entering Sunday's game versus the Grizzlies. James turned his ankle earlier in the year, but has not yet been forced to miss a contest because of it. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (ankle) has also picked up a questionable tag for the […]

Luka Doncic Listed As Questionable For Sunday

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (quad) has been listed as questionable for Sunday's game. He suffered a left quad contusion on Friday, but it doesn't sound like the injury is too serious. The Mavs have a back-to-back set starting on Sunday. It doesn't sound like Doncic should miss time, but fantasy managers should check back […]

Stephen Curry Posts 26 Points As Warriors Fall To 2-3

Golden State Warriors point guard Stephen Curry did all he could Friday in a blowout loss to the Portland Trail Blazers. Curry posted 26 points on 9-for-20 shooting along with eight rebounds, five assists and four three-pointers in 34 minutes.

Mike Conley Drills Seven Triples, Scores 33 In Win

Utah Jazz guard Mike Conley poured in a season-high 33 points in a 106-100 win over the Clippers. Conley was on fire from deep as he made 7 of 14 attempts from beyond the arc, which gives him 11 triples in his last two games. The veteran guard added seven assists, two boards, and a […]
