Brandon Ingram, Jonas Valanciunas Inactive On Friday

New Orleans Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram (ankle) and center Jonas Valanciunas (illness) have been ruled out for Friday's game against the Denver Nuggets. Ingram will miss his third game in a row here as he continues to deal with a right ankle sprain. Valanciunas will miss his second game in a row due to a […]

LeBron James, Anthony Davis Ruled Out Friday

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (knee) and center Anthony Davis (wrist) have been ruled out for Friday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. James sat out last game due to this knee issue and he'll miss at least one more game. Davis suffered a wrist injury last game, but managed to play through the issue. […]

Jimmy Butler Expects To Play On Friday

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (toe) will warm up with the intention to play on Friday, according to head coach Erik Spoelstra. Butler is coming off a strong game last time out, so hopefully he can continue that here against the Los Angeles Clippers. Fantasy managers can go ahead and move Butler into their starting […]

Christian Wood Questionable Against Blazers

Houston Rockets center Christian Wood (head) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Wood is reportedly dealing with a migraine, so the team might wait until pregame warmups to make a final decision. Alperen Sengun has been playing well for the Rockets this season and continues to gain momentum. He's […]

James Harden Practices On Friday

Brooklyn Nets guard James Harden (hamstring) was able to get through practice on Friday. Head coach Steve Nash confirmed that Harden will be available for Saturday's game against the Golden State Warriors. Kyrie Irving (personal) will remain out, which means Harden will be the primary ball-handler for Saturday's game. The absence of Irving should give […]

Anthony Davis, Russell Westbrook Questionable For Friday

Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (wrist) and guard Russell Westbrook (knee) are listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Davis injured his wrist during Thursday's game and briefly checked out of the game. Luckily, he returned and continued to play well, but apparently the wrist issue is still bothering him. Dwight […]

LeBron James Could Sit Out Against Hornets

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (knee) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. He sat out of Thursday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers due to left knee soreness. It appears James isn't quite fully healed yet, so it wouldn't be surprising to see the Lakers be extra cautious here. Talen […]

De'Andre Hunter Might Play Against Celtics

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (back) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Boston Celtics. He was listed as questionable on Wednesday due to back discomfort, but played in the contest. Bogdan Bogdanovic would likely be asked to slide into the starting five, assuming Hunter sits out. He'd have more streaming appeal and […]

Jonas Valanciunas Could Sit Out Friday

New Orleans Pelicans center Jonas Valanciunas (illness) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He sat out the last contest for rest purposes and it's worth noting he's dealing with a non-COVID related illness. Willy Hernangomez and Jaxson Hayes should be asked to soak up the minutes, assuming Valanciunas is unable […]

Jarred Vanderbilt Might Sit Against Suns

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Jarred Vanderbilt (foot) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Phoenix Suns. Vanderbilt has been playing excellent lately, so it'd be a shame to see him sit out here. He's snagged at least eight rebounds and averaging 3.3 steals over his last four games. There is plenty of streaming appeal […]

D'Angelo Russell, Patrick Beverley Questionable For Friday

Minnesota Timberwolves guards D'Angelo Russell (shin) and Patrick Beverley (ankle) are listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Phoenix Suns. Russell suffered a left shin contusion during Thursday's game and it's unclear how significant it is. Beverley continues to be bothered by a right ankle sprain, so it wouldn't be shocking to see him […]

Elijah Mitchell Limited On Thursday

San Francisco 49ers running back Elijah Mitchell (knee) was able to get in a limited session during Thursday's practice. Fantasy managers shouldn't be alarmed as the team is likely just managing his reps. He doesn't appear to be in any danger of missing the NFC Championship game against the Los Angeles Rams this weekend. Mitchell […]

Jeff Wilson Jr. Limited During Thursday's Practice

San Francisco 49ers running back Jeff Wilson Jr. (ankle) was able to get in a limited practice on Thursday. He is recovering from an ankle injury he suffered during last week's Divisional Round. The 49ers are hopeful he can play this weekend versus the Los Angeles Rams. However, Wilson doesn't offer much fantasy value with […]

Van Jefferson Practices On Thursday

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Van Jefferson (knee) was able to suit up for practice on Thursday. He was limited during this session, but is on track to play against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday. Last week, Jefferson had two receptions for 29 yards during the Divisional Round victory. It sounds like Jefferson is […]

Andrew Whitworth Fully Practices On Thursday

Los Angeles Rams offensive tackle Andrew Whitworth (knee) was upgraded to full during Thursday's practice. The four-time Pro Bowl tackle is expected to return after sitting out the Divisional Round. His replacement Joe Noteboom (chest) played well in his absence, but also suffered an injury last week. Having Whitworth back on the offensive line would […]

Deandre Ayton Ruled Out For Friday's Contest

Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Ayton continues to sit out due to a lingering right ankle sprain, but hopefully he can return soon. In the meantime, Bismack Biyombo will be asked to make the start and play heavy minutes without Ayton available. Fellow […]

Rudy Gobert Ruled Out Versus Grizzlies

Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert (calf) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He suffered a left calf strain on Sunday and now will miss his third straight game because of it. His absence will mean Hassan Whiteside will get another start with Udoka Azubuike getting backup minutes. Whiteside has struggled […]

Donovan Mitchell Questionable For Friday

Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell (concussion) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He has missed each of the last five games due to a concussion. Mitchell didn't travel with the team for Friday's contest, so the chances of him suiting up seem unlikely. Joe Ingles would shift back to the […]

Kevin Porter Jr. Doesn't Practice Thursday

Houston Rockets guard Kevin Porter Jr. (illness) did not participate during Thursday's practice. Despite that, head coach Stephen Silas expects Porter to be available for Friday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He is dealing with a non-COVID related illness, so possibly he feels better before game-time tomorrow. Jalen Green would do more of the […]

Patrick Beverley Unlikely To Play Thursday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Patrick Beverley (ankle) is not expected to suit up for Thursday's game, according to head coach Chris Finch. Fantasy managers should expect Beverley to miss his third game in a row due to a right ankle sprain. Malik Beasley and Jaylen Nowell should have increased roles against the Golden State Warriors on […]

Brandon Ingram Doesn't Practice Thursday

New Orleans Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram (ankle) was unable to practice on Thursday. He has missed each of the last two games and could be looking at a third absence on Friday. Josh Hart (ankle) sat out of practice as well on Thursday. That means, Herbert Jones will continue to have strong streaming appeal until […]

Tobias Harris Questionable For Thursday

Philadelphia 76ers forward Tobias Harris (illness) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. He missed shootaround while he deals with a non-COVID related illness. The organization is hopeful Harris plays, but the final decision will likely be made after pregame warmups. Joel Embiid and Seth Curry would be asked to […]

Anthony Davis Available On Thursday

Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (knee) is available for Thursday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He was listed as probable coming into this game, so he was likely on the injury report as a precaution. The Lakers are going to need a big performance from Davis with LeBron James (knee) out on Thursday. Both […]

LeBron James Ruled Out Against 76ers

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Hopefully this is more of a rest day than anything else and James won't miss multiple games. Anthony Davis (knee) and Russell Westbrook will get a significant boost in value with James sidelined. Carmelo Anthony, Malik Monk, […]

James Harden Won't Play Wednesday

Brooklyn Nets guard James Harden (hamstring) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Denver Nuggets. This is a tough blow with Kyrie Irving (personal) and Kevin Durant (knee) already sidelined. It seems like Harden tweaked his hamstring at some point and has decided to sit out as a precaution. Patty Mills is expected […]

De'Aaron Fox Won't Play Wednesday

Sacramento Kings guard De'Aaron Fox (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. This marks the third game in a row that Fox has missed due to a left ankle issue. Tyrese Haliburton should have full control of the offense without Fox available. Davion Mitchell is expected to move into the […]

Tyler Herro Available Against Knicks

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro is available for Wednesday's game against the New York Knicks. He will return here after sitting out due to the league's health and safety protocols. His return will mean that Max Strus and Caleb Martin won't have as significant of roles. However, Strus could still have low-end streaming value even […]

Fred Vanvleet Uncertain For Wednesday

Toronto Raptors guard Fred VanVleet (knee) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He missed last game, which resulted in Chris Boucher moving into the starting five. Also, Malachi Flynn and Dalano Banton saw playing time during Tuesday's game. Although, Gary Trent Jr. and Boucher benefited the most from the loss […]

Scottie Barnes Tagged As Questionable

Toronto Raptors guard Scottie Barnes (wrist) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He sat out of Tuesday's game due to right wrist swelling and could very well miss another game. His absence would likely mean more minutes for Gary Trent Jr. and possibly Fred VanVleet (knee), assuming he plays. Precious […]

Nikola Vucevic Active Against Raptors

Chicago Bulls center Nikola Vucevic (knee) is active for Wednesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He was listed as probable coming in, so it seems Vucevic is fine to play despite a minor knee issue. Vucevic has been asked to do more on the offensive side with many of the key playmakers sidelined. He's expected […]
