He didn't say […]

Anthony Edwards Sidelined on Friday Evening

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards (foot) won't play on Friday versus Golden State. The 2020 No. 1 overall pick had 40 points in Monday's loss to the Phoenix Suns. He'll now miss his fifth game of the 2025 campaign, which is almost the number of contests he was sidelined in the previous two seasons combined. […]

Collin Sexton Sidelined Again Versus Bulls

Charlotte Hornets guard Collin Sexton (quadriceps) will miss his third straight game Friday against Chicago due to a left quad strain, with his next chance to return Sunday in Cleveland. His absence keeps Charlotte thin in the backcourt alongside LaMelo Ball (ankle) and Tre Mann (knee), pushing more responsibility to younger options. KJ Simpson logged […]

Coby White On Track To Suit Up Versus Charlotte

Chicago Bulls guard Coby White (calf) is probable for Friday's matchup with Charlotte after a late addition to the injury report, though he remains on track to play. The designation appears precautionary as White continues to ramp up after missing a large chunk of the early season. He has averaged 20.6 points, 2.8 rebounds, and […]

Tre Jones Expected To Play Friday Vs. Hornets

Chicago Bulls guard Tre Jones (ankle) is probable for Friday's game against Charlotte after missing three straight contests and logging two full practices. Jones should continue to factor into the rotation with Ayo Dosunmu (thumb) and Kevin Huerter (hamstring) sidelined, even with Coby White (calf) back. Over his last five appearances, Jones averaged 14.6 points, […]

Ayo Dosunmu to Miss Friday's Game Vs. Hornets

Chicago Bulls guard/forward Ayo Dosunmu (thumb) will not play Friday against Charlotte due to a Grade 1 sprain after missing practice time. Dosunmu had been holding his own of late, averaging 11.6 points, 3.0 rebounds, 3.8 assists, 0.8 steals, and 2.0 three-pointers in 31.8 minutes over his last five, so the Bulls lose a useful […]

Dennis Schroder Downgraded to Out Thursday

Sacramento Kings guard Dennis Schroder (hip) will remain out for a seventh consecutive game on Thursday night against the Denver Nuggets.

Anthony Edwards Iffy to Face Warriors

AJ Green Misses Second Consecutive Game

Milwaukee Bucks guard AJ Green (shoulder) will sit out Thursday's tilt against the Boston Celtics, Eric Nehm of The Athletic reports.

Jordan Poole Cleared for Action Thursday

New Orleans Pelicans guard Jordan Poole (quadriceps) has received the green light to play on Thursday night against the Portland Trail Blazers.

Miles McBride to be Re-Evaluated in One Week

New York Knicks guard Miles McBride (ankle) will be re-evaluated in one week, Ian Begley of SYN reports. McBride injured his left ankle in a contest against the Orlando Magic last Sunday.

Nique Clifford to Start Thursday

Sacramento Kings shooting guard Nique Clifford will move to the starting unit on Thursday against the Denver Nuggets, Mark Haynes of the Sacramento Observer reports.

John Konchar Will Undergo Thumb Surgery

Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints.com reports that Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward John Konchar (thumb) will undergo surgery to repair a torn UCL in his left thumb and is out indefinitely. The injury occurred during Sunday's 119-96 win over the Trail Blazers. Konchar on the shelf for an extended period won't make much of a difference in fantasy basketball, as […]

Jrue Holiday Still Out Thursday

Portland Trail Blazers guard Jrue Holiday (calf) will miss his 13th consecutive game on Thursday against the New Orleans Pelicans. Holiday remains out with a right calf strain. The initial expectation was that Holiday could return to action after two weeks, but it has been almost a month since his last appearance. Caleb Love has […]

AJ Green Iffy for Thursday

Milwaukee Bucks guard AJ Green (shoulder) is considered questionable for Thursday's Eastern Conference showdown against the Boston Celtics. He is dealing with a shoulder issue and may be absent for a second consecutive game. Green was only a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, which doesn't bode well for his chances to play against Boston. Green […]

Dennis Schroder Likely to Remain Out Thursday

Sacramento Kings guard Dennis Schroder (hip) has been tagged as doubtful on the injury report for Thursday's matchup against the Denver Nuggets, indicating that he is expected to remain out for a seventh consecutive contest.

Zach LaVine Out Thursday With Thumb Injury

Sacramento Kings guard/forward Zach LaVine (thumb) won't take the court on Thursday night against the Denver Nuggets. He has been ruled out due to right thumb soreness.

Marcus Smart Ready to Face Spurs Wednesday

Los Angeles Lakers guard Marcus Smart (back) is not on the injury report for Wednesday's NBA Cup meeting with the San Antonio Spurs. A back issue has kept Smart out of action for six games. While Smart doesn't move the needle in most fantasy formats, he has been an important player for the Lakers. Across […]

Luguentz Dort Returns From Three-Game Absence Wednesday

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Luguentz Dort (adductor) is ready to end a three-game absence on Wednesday against the Phoenix Suns, as the team has not listed him on the injury report.

Isaiah Joe Out for Third Consecutive Game

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Isaiah Joe (knee) won't be available on Wednesday night against the Phoenix Suns. He will sit out a third consecutive game due to a left knee contusion.

Devin Booker Listed as Questionable for Wednesday

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (groin) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's NBA Cup quarterfinal against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Suns' leader has been on the shelf for a couple of games with a right groin strain. Collin Gillespie's fantasy value will take a blow if Booker returns, as he will likely be bumped […]

Jamal Shead Available on Tuesday, Entering the Starting Lineup

Toronto Raptors guard Jamal Shead (quadriceps) is available for Tuesday's game versus the Knicks. He was listed on the injury report because of a quad contusion. However, the 23-year-old is available. Not only that, he will start in place of Immanuel Quickley (illness), who won't suit up for this one. Shead has averaged 5.8 points, […]

Dru Smith Will Be Available Tuesday

Miami Heat guard Dru Smith (hip) got a spot start on Saturday but was listed as questionable for Tuesday's NBA Cup Quarterfinal contest with the Magic. Smith was upgraded to available, but he'll likely return to the bench with Tyler Herro (toe) and Davion Mitchell (groin) ready to return after missing Saturday's game. In his […]
