Jordan Walsh Questionable Monday Due to Illness

Boston Celtics guard/forward Jordan Walsh (illness) is questionable for Monday's game against the Indiana Pacers. The 21-year-old has been dealing with an illness and played only 13 minutes in Saturday's win over the Toronto Raptors -- his lowest since Nov. 18. Walsh has started regularly since mid-November, averaging 8.9 points, 5.7 rebounds, and 1.3 steals […]

Klay Thompson Uncertain to Play Monday

Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Klay Thompson (knee) is listed as questionable for Monday's action against the New Orleans Pelicans. The veteran has been a regular on the injury report lately due to a sore left knee, but Thompson has made four consecutive appearances. He may finally take some time off on Monday night to recover, as […]

Collin Sexton Likely to Remain Out Monday

Charlotte Hornets guard Collin Sexton (quadriceps) is looking at a seventh consecutive absence, as the team lists him as doubtful for Monday's matchup against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Sexton is battling a quadriceps strain, and muscle injuries are not easy to shake off. KJ Simpson, Sion James, and Tre Mann have more fantasy appeal due to […]

Cooper Flagg Questionable for Monday's Action

Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Cooper Flagg (back) could miss his second game of the season on Monday, as the team has listed him as questionable for a matchup against the struggling New Orleans Pelicans. The exciting rookie is nursing a back contusion. Dallas begins the week with a back-to-back, so it appears likely that Flagg will […]

Jaylen Brown Could Miss Another Game Monday

Boston Celtics guard/forward Jaylen Brown (illness) is questionable for Monday's game against Indiana after sitting out the previous contest. Brown has averaged 30.8 points, 7.2 rebounds, 6.0 assists, and 35.3 minutes over his last five, serving as a primary option in Boston's offense. The illness introduces availability risk without signaling a role change. If Brown […]

Jalen Suggs Unlikely to Play vs Warriors

Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs (hip) is trending toward another absence Monday against Golden State, with the team listing him as doubtful on the front end of a back-to-back. Suggs has already missed two games, with Orlando prioritizing caution as he works through the hip contusion. In his most recent five appearances, Suggs produced 21.8 […]

LaMelo Ball On Track to Suit Up Against Cleveland

Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball (wrist) is listed as probable for Monday's matchup against Cleveland on the front end of a back-to-back. Ball has averaged 18.6 points, 4.0 rebounds, 9.0 assists, and 26.1 minutes over his last five, shooting 42.7 percent from the field. The wrist issue adds mild risk, but his usage and playmaking […]

Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups and Streamers for Week 10 (2025): 12/22 -12/28

We've made it through the funky scheduling created by the NBA Cup, and we only have one more day without any games to navigate this week, as the NBA, as usual, takes Christmas Eve off entirely. With only one team playing twice this week and nearly half the league playing four times, there is no […]

Donovan Mitchell Likely to Return on Monday Night

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (illness) is probable heading into Monday's matchup with Charlotte. He didn't suit up for Friday's loss to the Chicago Bulls. Tyrese Proctor ended up taking his place in the rotation, finishing with 16 points, six rebounds, three assists, and one steal. If Mitchell suffers a setback, Proctor would presumably remain […]

Luka Doncic Exits Early With Left Leg Contusion

Los Angeles Lakers guard Luka Doncic (leg) exited early and did not return against the Clippers, finishing with 12 points, five rebounds, two assists, and 20 minutes. The injury places his short-term availability in question and creates immediate fantasy ripple effects. LeBron James handled the late offense, scoring 36 points in 38 minutes, and remains […]

Ayo Dosunmu Probable for Meeting With Hawks

Chicago Bulls guard/forward Ayo Dosunmu (thumb) is listed as probable for Sunday's tilt against the Atlanta Hawks. On Friday against the Cleveland Cavaliers, Dosunmu returned to the lineup after missing three games due to thumb injuries. He was eased back into action, logging 14 minutes off the bench. He had eight points, three assists, and […]

Coby White Iffy for Sunday

Chicago Bulls guard Coby White (ankle) has been tagged as questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Atlanta Hawks. White has overcome calf issues but is now nursing an ankle problem. He has played in six consecutive contests, averaging 18.7 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 4.3 assists in 28.2 minutes per game. Tre Jones and Ayo Dosunmu […]

Tyler Herro to Miss Fourth Straight Game Sunday

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (toe) will be sidelined for a fourth consecutive game on Sunday against the New York Knicks. He has been battling a toe injury for a while, appearing in only one of Miami's last six games. With Davion Mitchell (ankle) also out, Kasparas Jakucionis made his first career start on Friday […]

Jalen Suggs Out Against Jazz

Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs (hip) will miss a second consecutive contest on Saturday against the Utah Jazz, as the team has downgraded his status from doubtful to out. Suggs can't play due to a hip contusion, putting Tyus Jones and Anthony Black in a position to see more minutes on the court. With Suggs […]

Grayson Allen Unavailable Against Warriors

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Grayson Allen (knee) will miss a second consecutive game on Saturday against the Golden State Warriors. He is carrying a sore right knee, and his absence isn't surprising, as the team initially listed Allen as questionable for the game. Allen's previous absence was also against the Warriors on Thursday night. It allowed […]

Cam Spencer Makes Third Career Start Saturday

Memphis Grizzlies guard Cam Spencer will join the starting lineup for Saturday's matchup against the Washington Wizards, replacing Santi Aldama. Spencer struggled in his only previous start this season, finishing with four points, four rebounds, four assists, and two steals in a 117-104 loss to the Toronto Raptors on Nov. 2. However, he was excellent […]

Bilal Coulibaly Departs Lineup Saturday

Washington Wizards guard/forward Bilal Coulibaly (ankle) won't be in the lineup for the first leg of a back-to-back on Saturday against the Memphis Grizzlies. After returning from an oblique injury this week, Coulibaly has suffered a left ankle sprain. Fortunately for Washington, Khris Middleton (knee) has been cleared to return. The veteran will help to […]

Tre Mann, Pat Connaughton Active Saturday

Charlotte Hornets guard Tre Mann (knee) and guard/forward Pat Connaughton (calf) will be in the lineup on Saturday against the Detroit Pistons. The latter is available to play after missing four weeks with a right calf strain. Mann has sat out seven games with a right knee bone bruise. Coming off the bench, Mann has […]

Caris LeVert Cleared for Action Saturday

Detroit Pistons guard/forward Caris LeVert (knee) will be active against the Charlotte Hornets on Saturday, Hunter Patterson of The Athletic reports. He was upgraded from questionable to probable earlier Saturday and has now officially been cleared for action despite dealing with a sore right knee. In Thursday's loss to the Dallas Mavericks, LeVert saw his […]

Duncan Robinson Good to Go Saturday

Detroit Pistons guard/forward Duncan Robinson (knee) will be active against the Charlotte Hornets on Saturday. The team has upgraded him from probable to available. Robinson was on the injury report due to a left knee contusion he sustained on Thursday against the Dallas Mavericks. The veteran sniper operates as a starter in Detroit but has […]

Quentin Grimes Returns to Starting Lineup Saturday

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Quentin Grimes has been named a starter for Saturday's clash against the Dallas Mavericks. After making back-to-back starts, Grimes was back in the second unit on Friday night against the New York Knicks. However, Paul George's (knee) absence on Saturday has reopened the door for him to return to the starting lineup. […]

Klay Thompson Available for Saturday's Tilt

Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Klay Thompson (knee) has shaken off a questionable tag and will play on Saturday against the Philadelphia 76ers. While it will be good to see one of the all-time great snipers on the court, fantasy managers shouldn't expect too much from Thompson. He had only five points in his last appearance against […]

Jaylen Brown Sits Out Saturday's Game

Boston Celtics guard/forward Jaylen Brown (illness) won't play on Saturday against the Toronto Raptors. This was expected after Brown logged 35 minutes in Friday's win over the Miami Heat and was handed a doubtful tag on the initial injury report. With Brown out, Boston's offense will rely on Derrick White, Payton Pritchard, and Anfernee Simons. […]

Collin Sexton Sidelined Again on Saturday Evening

Charlotte Hornets guard Collin Sexton (quadriceps) isn't available for Saturday's game in Detroit. He was initially listed as questionable, so it appears he's inching closer toward a return. However, that won't happen on Saturday night. With LaMelo Ball recently returning from a stint on the shelf, Sexton's fantasy ceiling should be lower once he's healthy […]

Seth Curry Ruled Out vs Suns

Golden State Warriors guard Seth Curry (glute) has been ruled out Saturday against Phoenix due to left glute injury management, though his absence carries minimal fantasy impact. The veteran shooter has played sparingly this season, averaging 7.0 points, 2.0 rebounds, and 1.5 assists in 16.0 minutes per game, keeping him off the standard-league radar. The […]

Jrue Holiday Ruled Out Against Sacramento

Portland Trail Blazers guard Jrue Holiday (calf) has been ruled out again Saturday against Sacramento, extending his absence to 16 straight games with no clear timetable for return. The veteran guard was productive before going down, averaging 16.7 points, 5.3 rebounds, 8.3 assists, and 1.6 steals in 33.4 minutes, but the prolonged layoff makes him […]

RJ Barrett to Remain Out Saturday

Toronto Raptors guard/forward RJ Barrett (knee) will be sidelined for a 12th consecutive game on Saturday against the Boston Celtics. Following a long absence due to a right knee sprain, Barrett began ramping up activities this week, but it looks like his return to the lineup won't come during the team's upcoming back-to-back set. Toronto […]

Klay Thompson Iffy for Saturday

Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Klay Thompson (knee) may miss Saturday night's action against the Philadelphia 76ers, as the team has listed him as questionable on the injury report. The veteran sniper could be sidelined for the third time this season due to a sore left knee. Thompson's fantasy stock has plummeted this season, with Dallas mainly […]

James Harden Available Saturday

Los Angeles Clippers guard James Harden (calf) will be available for Saturday's Battle of Los Angeles against the Lakers, Law Murray of The Athletic reports. The veteran superstar sat out Thursday's loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder due to a left calf contusion. Harden has been fairly quiet this month and settled for only 13 […]

Anthony Edwards Returns Without Minutes Restriction Friday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards (foot) will be back in the lineup on Friday against the Oklahoma City Thunder, NBA insider Marc Stein reports. Edwards has missed three games while managing a right foot injury. The Timberwolves superstar reportedly won't have a minutes restriction on Friday, so fantasy managers can expect something big from Edwards […]
