Malcolm Brogdon Misses Friday's Action

Washington Wizards guard Malcolm Brogdon (foot) will not suit up for Friday's matchup against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The veteran is back on the shelf after playing only three games following a 14-game absence due to a foot problem. Washington also has a game scheduled for Saturday, so it's possible Brogdon will be brought back into […]

Donovan Mitchell Good To Go Friday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (shoulder) will return to the lineup on Friday against the Washington Wizards. After sitting out the second game of a back-to-back against the Detroit Pistons on Wednesday, Mitchell was initially considered probable for Friday's game. The team has now upgraded the six-time All-Star to available, and Mitchell is making his […]

RJ Barrett Remains Sidelined On Friday

Toronto Raptors guard RJ Barrett (concussion) has been ruled out for the third consecutive game while he remains in concussion protocol on Friday. After a couple of trades, the Raptors should have quite the mix of players in their game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Immanuel Quickley is off of the injury report while Jamal […]

Cade Cunningham May Miss Friday's Game Against 76ers

Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham (ankle) is listed as questionable for the contest against the Philadelphia 76ers on Friday due to an ankle sprain. The star point guard hasn't been forced to miss a game since late November, so there's a chance the team could use this as a rest day. If that's the case, […]

Paul George Available On Friday Against Pistons

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Paul George (finger) remains on the injury report for his finger injury that requires a splint, but he'll be available for the team's Friday night game against the Detroit Pistons. In his first game back while wearing the splint, George had a bit of a rough night going for nine points, two […]

Donovan Mitchell Considered Probable Friday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (shoulder) has been listed as probable for Friday's matchup with the Washington Wizards. He received a night off to deal with a shoulder contusion on Wednesday and seems ready to go against a lowly Wizards team that will roll out a decimated crew until all of their trades go through. […]

The contests include some very interesting matchups and a chance to see some new looks from some teams if their recent acquisitions are available. […]

Bradley Beal Could Miss Friday's Game

Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal (toe) is listed as questionable ahead of Friday's game against the Utah Jazz. It's unclear where Beal picked up this injury considering he has played in seven straight games. Hopefully, it's only a minor issue that won't cost him any time, but fantasy managers will need to check back for […]

Jamal Murray Ruled Out Versus Orlando

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (knee) is ruled out for Thursday's game against the visiting Magic. The veteran logged 36 minutes in Wednesday's 144-119 win over the New Orleans Pelicans. However, he popped up on the injury report on Thursday because of left knee inflammation. With Russell Westbrook (hamstring) also out, Julian Strawther and Jalen […]

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope Available On Thursday

Orlando Magic guard/forward Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (hamstring) is available ahead of Thursday's game against the Denver Nuggets. There was some uncertainty if Caldwell-Pope would suit up for both games of the back-to-back set. It appears that the veteran guard is feeling good enough to play after playing 22 minutes on Wednesday. The expectation is that Caldwell-Pope […]

Moses Moody Questionable Against Lakers

Golden State Warriors guard/forward Moses Moody (back) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Moody has been dealing with a back issue and didn't play on Wednesday versus the Jazz. Once the 22-year-old is set to return, his fantasy value may dip with the Warriors trading for veteran Jimmy Butler. However, he won't have […]

Davion Mitchell Takes His Talents To South Beach

The Miami Heat acquired Davion Mitchell from the Toronto Raptors on Thursday in exchange for P.J. Tucker, a second-round pick, and cash. Mitchell was a top-10 pick in the 2021 NBA Draft out of Baylor and played his first three seasons in Sacramento. He was traded to the Raptors before this season and averaged 6.3 […]

Terance Mann Headed To The Hawks

The Atlanta Hawks acquired guards Terance Mann and Bones Hyland from the Los Angeles Clippers in exchange for guard Bogdan Bogdanovic and three second-round picks. Bogdanovic had been limited to 24 games for the Hawks this year while Mann and Hyland will be interesting depth pieces for the Atlanta rotation. Mann has only averaged 19.8 […]

Caris LeVert Traded To Hawks

The Cleveland Cavaliers have traded guard/forward Caris LeVert along with Georges Niang and three second-round picks and two swaps to the Atlanta Hawks in exchange for forward De'Andre Hunter. LeVert played 38 games for the Cavs this season and made three starts. He averaged 10.2 points, 3.7 assists, 2.8 rebounds and 23.8 minutes per game. […]

Dalton Knecht Traded To Charlotte

Rookie guard/forward Dalton Knecht will finish the season with the Charlotte Hornets, who acquired him in a trade with the Los Angeles Lakers. Veteran forward Cam Reddish also moves to Charlotte as part of the deal, while center Mark Williams heads to L.A. Knecht was the 17th pick of the 2024 NBA Draft by the […]

Bruce Brown Sent To New Orleans

The Toronto Raptors have traded guard/forward Bruce Brown to the New Orleans Pelicans. Brown, an NBA champion with the Denver Nuggets in 2023, was shipped out alongside Kelly Olynyk and a couple of draft picks for former All-Star Brandon Ingram. Toronto picked up Brown only 13 months ago from the Indiana Pacers. He ended up […]

FanDuel NBA DFS Picks for Today (Thursday 2/6/25): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

Welcome back, RotoBallers! Today is the hardest DFS day of the year, and I'm here to hopefully make that easier. With the looming trade deadline, we have quite a few guys to watch. Luckily, it's a smaller six-game slate, so there are fewer teams we have to watch the news for. Mark Williams was just […]

Marcus Smart Will Play On Wednesday

Memphis Grizzlies guard Marcus Smart (finger) will play on Wednesday versus Toronto. The veteran hasn't been on the court since December 23, so he'll likely operate under a minutes restriction. But with Desmond Bane (ankle) ruled out, Smart could see enough minutes to justify his presence in fantasy lineups against one of the worst teams […]

Donovan Mitchell Ruled Out Versus Pistons

According to Serena Winters of FanDuel Sports Network Ohio, Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (shoulder) will not play on Wednesday against the Detroit Pistons. Mitchell is dealing with a right shoulder injury and will be out of action for only the third time during this year's campaign. With the Cavs' best player out, fantasy managers could possibly […]

Navigating through all the injuries and recently traded players isn't easy either, which is why I am here to help you get your process started! I always make it a point to recommend […]

Bogdan Bogdanovic Sidelined On Wednesday Versus San Antonio

Atlanta Hawks shooting guard Bogdan Bogdanovic (personal) won't play on Wednesday against the San Antonio Spurs. With Bogdanovic's popping up in the rumor mill as Thursday's trade deadline nears, it's unclear when or if he'll rejoin the Atlanta Hawks. Missing Bogdanovic will cost Atlanta some major playmaking off the bench. Bogdanovic has missed the last […]

The NBA is ready to roll this Wednesday with a fun nine-game slate of games set to tip off at 7:00 p.m. ET. Everyone is excited to get a first look at the new-look Spurs in Atlanta, but that's just one of several interesting storylines to follow. Of the 18 teams in action, the Nets, […]

Jalen Williams May Miss A Third Straight Game

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Jalen Williams (wrist) is in danger of missing a third straight game, as the team considers him questionable for Wednesday's tilt against the Phoenix Suns. Williams is trying to shake off a right wrist sprain. Aaron Wiggins has picked up a pair of starts during Wlliams' absence. He exploded for a […]

Jalen Suggs Considered Doubtful For Wednesday

Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs (quadriceps) is likely to sit out a fifth consecutive game on Wednesday against the Sacramento Kings, as the team has listed him as doubtful for the matchup. After returning from a back injury, Suggs has been sidelined due to a left quadriceps contusion. Anthony Black and Cole Anthony have added […]

Marcus Smart Questionable Wednesday

Memphis Grizzlies guard Marcus Smart (finger) has been listed as questionable for Wednesday's meeting with the Toronto Raptors. He has been out for 19 games while recovering from a finger injury. Memphis had him as doubtful on the injury report only a couple of days ago, so Smart appears to be making very good progress […]

Desmond Bane To "Miss A Little Time"

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Desmond Bane (ankle) is forced to miss multiple games. The 26-year-old hurt his left ankle on Sunday against the Milwaukee Bucks and will sit out a second straight game on Wednesday against the Toronto Raptors. Grizzlies head coach Taylor Jenkins has said that Bane will "miss a little time" because of the […]

Zach LaVine Slated To Debut On Wednesday

Sacramento Kings guard Zach LaVine is expected to make his team debut against the Orlando Magic on Wednesday. LaVine was unavailable for Monday's game after being traded in three-team deal from the Chicago Bulls. Obviously, LaVine wasn't going to make the trip to Minnesota on such short notice, but he will be available for Wednesday's […]

Aaron Holiday Joins Starting Unit Tuesday

Houston Rockets guard Aaron Holiday will join the starting lineup on Tuesday against the Brooklyn Nets. He will make his first start of the campaign following an impressive bench showing in Monday's loss to the New York Knicks. While most of his teammates struggled to hit shots, Holiday went for a season-high 15 points in […]
