Sam Merrill Unavailable Versus Pacers

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Sam Merrill (hand) will be out of action on Monday against the Indiana Pacers. Merrill will miss his seventh consecutive contest due to a sprained right hand, and there isn't a timetable for his return. Cleveland's backcourt will be very short-handed this evening, with Lonzo Ball (illness) and Darius Garland (rest) also sidelined. Jaylon […]

Tre Mann Uncertain for Monday's Game Against Nets

Charlotte Hornets guard Tre Mann (ankle) is questionable for Monday's game against the Brooklyn Nets after logging only 10 minutes in his most recent outing, and his potential absence carries minimal fantasy impact. Mann has averaged 5.4 points, 1.4 rebounds, and 1.0 assists across his last five games on 37.9 percent shooting, keeping him off […]

Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups and Streamers for Week 7 (2025): 12/1-12/7

Terance Mann in Danger of Missing Monday's Game

Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Terance Mann (ribs) has been tagged as questionable on the injury report ahead of Monday's meet-up with the Charlotte Hornets. The 25-year-old played through a rib injury on Saturday against the Milwaukee Bucks but struggled, shooting 2-for-8 from the field to finish with four points in 21 minutes. Mann's exit from the […]

Caris LeVert Expected Back Monday

Detroit Pistons guard/forward Caris LeVert (knee) will likely return to the lineup on Monday against the Atlanta Hawks after the team listed him as probable for the game. The former Hawk missed Saturday's clash against the Miami Heat with a sore knee. It was the second leg of a back-to-back, so the team was probably […]

Duncan Robinson Questionable to Face Hawks

Detroit Pistons guard/forward Duncan Robinson (ankle) is considered questionable for Monday's Eastern Conference showdown against the Atlanta Hawks. Robinson produced a nice revenge-game performance in Saturday's win over the Miami Heat, but he apparently also injured his right ankle. Ron Holland II or Caris LeVert (knee) could get a chance to start on Monday if […]

Jaime Jaquez Jr. Uncertain for Monday

Miami Heat guard/forward Jaime Jaquez Jr. (groin) is listed as questionable for Monday's matchup against the Los Angeles Clippers. He could miss a second consecutive contest due to a right groin strain. Jaquez Jr. has impressed this season, producing 16.2 points, 6.3 rebounds, and 5.3 assists per game off the Miami bench. Pelle Larsson and […]

Coby White Returning to Bulls Lineup Monday

Chicago Bulls guard Coby White (calf) is not listed on the injury report for Monday's contest against the Orlando Magic. White missed the second leg of a back-to-back on Saturday against the Indiana Pacers. He hasn't played on consecutive nights since making his season debut in the middle of November. While he has been dealing […]

Dennis Schroder Won't Play Sunday

Sacramento Kings guard Dennis Schroder (hip) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest against the Memphis Grizzlies, James Ham of ESPN 1320 Sacramento reports. He will be out for a third consecutive game with a hip flexor strain. Schroder was initially listed as questionable on the injury report. Without Schroder, Russell Westbrook, Malik Monk, and […]

Trey Murphy III Out Again on Sunday Night

New Orleans Pelicans guard/forward Trey Murphy III (elbow) won't play on Sunday night against the Lakers, marking his second-straight absence. The Pelicans are hurting, with Zion Williamson (hamstring), Jordan Poole (quadriceps), Herbert Jones (calf), and Jordan Hawkins (illness) also on the shelf. As a result, fantasy managers can anticipate more production from Jose Alvarado, Saddiq […]

Alex Caruso Won't Suit Up Against Portland

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Alex Caruso (quadriceps) won't play in Sunday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. The 31-year-old is quite familiar with the NBA's injury report. However, his absence is more of a bigger issue, considering OKC will also be without Isaiah Hartenstein (calf), who will sidelined for at least 10-14 days. Without Caruso […]

Derrick White Ruled Out on Sunday

Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (calf) won't play on Sunday against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He was on the injury report ahead of Saturday's loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves for the same issue, a right calf contusion. However, the 31-year-old was available for that one, finishing with 16 points, five assists, and two blocks. White's next […]

Derrick White Expected to Suit Up Versus Timberwolves

Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (calf) is in line to play on Saturday in Minnesota. The 31-year-old has played as well as expected throughout the 2025 campaign. However, he hasn't benefited from the absence of Jayson Tatum (Achilles). In fact, he's seen reduced production in several statistical categories. Still, White remains a must-start fantasy option […]

Kyshawn George Returns to Lineup After One-Game Absence

Washington Wizards guard/forward Kyshawn George (illness) is back in the starting group after missing one game and remains firmly on the breakout track. He delivered 17 points, 12 rebounds, and seven assists in his last appearance and continues to produce mid-round numbers with 16.5 points, 6.3 rebounds, and 4.9 assists on strong shooting. His return […]

Paul George Set To Start Friday Against Nets

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Paul George (ankle) will start Friday against Brooklyn after being upgraded from questionable, giving the team a needed boost with multiple wings still sidelined. George has averaged 13.3 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 3.7 assists across his first three outings in limited minutes, and his return pushes Dominick Barlow, Justin Edwards, and Jabari […]

Kevin Huerter Set to Return Against Charlotte

Chicago Bulls guard/forward Kevin Huerter (pelvis) will be available Friday against Charlotte, though his fantasy outlook remains shaky after logging just 19 and 10 minutes off the bench in his last two appearances. His reduced role aligned with Coby White's return to full availability, which tightened Chicago's guard rotation and pushed Huerter into a smaller […]

Trey Murphy III Uncertain For Saturday's Matchup

New Orleans Pelicans forward Trey Murphy III (elbow) is uncertain for Saturday's game at Golden State because of right elbow soreness, which could keep him out of the opening game of a back-to-back. The Pelicans are already without Jordan Poole (quadriceps) and Herbert Jones (calf), which pushed Saddiq Bey into a 39-minute workload Wednesday that […]

Jaden Ivey Set To Play Against Orlando

Detroit Pistons guard Jaden Ivey (reconditioning) will be available Friday against Orlando after averaging 14.0 minutes across his first three outings. He contributed seven points, four rebounds, and one steal in his most recent game but remains limited as the team eases him back. His return pushes Daniss Jenkins into a smaller role and slightly […]

Andrew Nembhard Won't Play Versus Washington

Indiana Pacers guard Andrew Nembhard (quadriceps) won't play on Friday versus the Washington Wizards. He has a quad contusion, so fantasy managers will need to wait and see if he'll be back on Saturday against the Chicago Bulls. Without him, T.J. McConnell, who had 16 points, seven rebounds, and six assists in Wednesday's two-point loss […]

De'Anthony Melton Eyeing Road-Trip Return

Golden State Warriors guard De'Anthony Melton (knee) will miss at least two additional games and is targeting his season debut on the team's upcoming road trip. Melton averaged 10.3 points, 3.3 rebounds, 2.8 assists, and 1.2 steals in 20.2 minutes last year, but he will need to win minutes from Brandin Podziemski once active. Podziemski […]

Andrew Wiggins On Track To Suit Up Saturday

Miami Heat guard/forward Andrew Wiggins (hip) is probable for Saturday's matchup with Detroit after logging 11 points, two rebounds, three assists, and two blocks in 31 minutes during his return from a three-game absence. The workload suggests he is back in a stable role, though Miami's improving health makes his night-to-night ceiling dependent on efficiency […]

Norman Powell Likely Available Against Detroit

Miami Heat guard/forward Norman Powell (groin) is probable for Saturday's game against Detroit after briefly cooling off once Tyler Herro returned. Powell had been tearing it up before Herro rejoined the lineup, but his most recent outing with 11 points and four rebounds reflected reduced usage in a healthier rotation. He still sits in the […]

Andrew Nembhard Questionable Entering Friday's Contest

Indiana Pacers guard Andrew Nembhard (quadriceps) is questionable for Friday's game with Washington, positioning veteran T.J. McConnell for added minutes if he sits. McConnell has ramped up effectively, delivering 16 points, seven rebounds, and six assists in his most recent outing and adding another 16-point, five-assist line earlier in the week. His strong per-minute production […]

Jaden Ivey's Status Uncertain for Friday

Detroit Pistons guard Jaden Ivey (reconditioning) is questionable for Friday's matchup with Orlando after logging limited minutes in his first three appearances of the season. If he doesn't suit up Friday, second-year guard Daniss Jenkins stands to gain the most. In his four starts this season, Jenkins has averaged 19.3 points, 1.8 threes, 3.0 rebounds, […]

Coby White Questionable for Friday's Matchup

Chicago Bulls guard Coby White (calf) is questionable for Friday's game in Charlotte as the team manages his workload on the front end of a back-to-back. Kevin Huerter (pelvis) is also questionable, leaving Chicago's backcourt depth in flux. A potential absence from White would elevate Tre Jones and Ayo Dosunmu, as Dosunmu logged 28 points […]

Paul George Faces Game-Time Call Against Nets

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Paul George (ankle) is questionable for Friday's matchup against the Nets after participating in Thursday's practice. A potential absence would again open rotation room for Dominick Barlow and Justin Edwards. Barlow has averaged 7.4 points, 4.9 rebounds, and 2.0 assists across his last eight appearances, while Edwards has produced 9.0 points on […]

VJ Edgecombe Sidelined Again Against Nets

Philadelphia 76ers guard VJ Edgecombe (calf) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Nets, extending his multi-game absence. His downtime keeps Quentin Grimes in a meaningful role, and the shooting guard has averaged 15.4 points, 2.2 rebounds, and 3.2 assists across his last five games while shooting 40.0 percent from the field. Grimes […]

Gradey Dick Injured on Wednesday

Toronto Raptors guard/forward Gradey Dick (head) made an early exit against the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday after taking a hard fall. Late in the first quarter, Dick hit the back of his head on the floor while attempting to go for an offensive rebound. Dick has had a tough season, averaging only 6.8 points in […]

RJ Barrett to Be Re-Evaluated in One Week

Toronto Raptors guard/forward RJ Barrett (knee) has no structural damage in his right knee and will be re-evaluated in one week. The Canadian star hurt his knee in Sunday's win over the Brooklyn Nets. He has missed two contests due to the injury. Since Barrett's exit from the lineup, Ja'Kobe Walter's workload has significantly increased, […]

Gary Payton II Hurt in Wednesday's Loss

Golden State Warriors guard/forward Gary Payton II (ankle) was limited to five minutes of action on Wednesday against the Houston Rockets. The veteran sprained his left ankle during the first half. Golden State also lost Stephen Curry (quadriceps) on Wednesday night, meaning the rotation could look very different in Saturday's contest against the New Orleans […]
