Damian Lillard Will Play On Monday

Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard (personal) is available for Monday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. He was tagged as questionable due to personal reasons, but will suit up for this one. The superstar guard is expected to play heavy minutes considering the Blazers are shorthanded. He'll be a strong DFS option for Monday's slate. […]

Josh Hart Uncertain Against Cavaliers

New Orleans Pelicans forward Josh Hart (ankle) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Hart has seen increased value while Brandon Ingram (Achilles) has been sidelined. Currently, Ingram is listed as doubtful for Tuesday's game. Herbert Jones and Garrett Temple would be asked to play significant minutes, assuming both players are […]

Jonas Valanciunas Tagged As Probable For Tuesday

New Orleans Pelicans center Jonas Valanciunas (illness) is listed as probable for Tuesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He has missed each of the last two games due to a non-COVID related illness. Willy Hernangomez has been a strong streaming option while Valanciunas has been sidelined. However, that could come to an end on Tuesday […]

Patrick Beverley Unavailable For Monday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Patrick Beverley has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Boston Celtics. He is out of quarantine and was able to practice on Sunday. However, Beverley still isn't up to full speed, so he'll sit this one out due to lack of conditioning. The 'Wolves are already extremely short-handed, so this […]

Payton Pritchard Will Start On Monday

Boston Celtics guard Payton Pritchard will move into the starting five for Monday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He'll slide into the starting five with Marcus Smart (hand) unavailable for this contest. Pritchard is coming off a 16-point game and makes sense as a streaming option. The Celtics are shorthanded, so Pritchard stands to play […]

Jordan Poole Cleared For Tuesday's Game

Golden State Warriors guard Jordan Poole has cleared protocols and has returned to the organization. That being said, Poole is likely to be available for Tuesday's game against the Denver Nuggets. The Warriors are without Andrew Wiggins and Draymond Green, so they could certainly use Poole's help on the court. Poole should see increased responsibilities […]

Deandre Ayton Unavailable For Monday

Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton is unavailable for Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Ayton will join teammates Jae Crowder and Elfrid Payton in protocols. Fantasy managers should expect Ayton to miss a few games, so hopefully there's an IR spot available. In the meantime, JaVale McGee should move into the starting five. He should […]

Trae Young Cleared For Monday's Game

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young has cleared protocols ahead of Monday's game against the Chicago Bulls. That means, Young is back and is one of nine players available for Atlanta. That being said, Young will see all the minutes and shots he can handle on Monday. Fantasy managers should make sure he's back in their […]

Marcus Morris Sr. Questionable Against Nets

Los Angeles Clippers forward Marcus Morris Sr. is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He has cleared COVID-19 protocols, but Morris has to work on getting his conditioning back. Fantasy managers should expect Morris to be limited, assuming he does suit up on Monday. However, he'll have increased value going forward […]

Jeremiah Robinson-Earl Lands In COVID-19 Protocols

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Jeremiah Robinson-Earl has landed in the league's health and safety protocols. He'll join Darius Bazley, Tre Mann, Aleksej Pokusevski and Aaron Wiggins in protocols right now. That being said, Derrick Favors, Kenrich Williams and Isaiah Roby should all see more minutes coming their way. The Thunder are shorthanded at the forward […]

Cody Martin Available Against Rockets

Charlotte Hornets guard Cody Martin will be available for Monday's game against the Houston Rockets. He has cleared protocols and will be back in action for this game. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect the same type of production from when LaMelo Ball and Terry Rozier were sidelined. Martin will have a reduced role off the bench, […]

Shake Milton Remains Out On Tuesday

Philadelphia 76ers guard Shake Milton has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. Milton has cleared protocols, but needs to build up his conditioning. Fantasy managers should expect him back on the court soon. In the meantime, Tyrese Maxey will see all the minutes he can handle. Maxey is worth streaming and […]

Marcus Smart Uncertain For Monday

Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart (hand) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He is reportedly dealing with a right hand laceration, but seemed fine during their last contest. The Celtics cannot afford to lose anymore players with eight teammates already in protocols. Payton Pritchard, Romeo Langford, and even Joe Johnson […]

Jayson Tatum Enters COVID-19 Protocols

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum has entered the league's health and safety protocols. This marks eight players on the Celtics roster who won't be available for Monday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. It sounds like Tatum won't be eligible to return until January 5, so fantasy managers should be able to move him into an […]

Delon Wright Enters COVID-19 Protocols

Atlanta Hawks guard Delon Wright has entered the league's health and safety protocols. That makes it 11 players for Atlanta who won't be available for Monday's game against the Chicago Bulls. There is a chance that Trae Young clears protocols, but he still needs to provide one more negative test. That means, Bogdan Bogdanovic, Cam […]

Bradley Beal Could Possibly Play Tuesday

Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal has a chance at playing on Tuesday against the Miami Heat. Head coach Wes Unseld Jr. mentioned that he is hopeful Beal can clear protocols before Tuesday's contest. Beal has not played since December 18 and would obviously need to show two negative tests before being cleared to play. His […]

Trae Young Has A Chance To Play Monday

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young has provided one negative test, but needs to show one more before clearing protocols. That being said, Young has a chance to suit up for Monday's game against the Chicago Bulls. The first negative result has shown on Sunday, so Young might be able to provide another in time to […]

Kyrie Irving Likely Still A Few Weeks Away

Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving is unlikely to return to the court anytime soon. He is currently sidelined alongside teammate Kevin Durant due to safety protocols. However, head coach Steve Nash mentioned Irving would likely need a week or two to ramp up activities once clearing protocols. The organization is hopeful to have Durant back […]

Kevin Durant Hopeful To Return On Thursday

Brooklyn Nets forward Kevin Durant is currently in the league's COVID-19 safety protocols and is unavailable for Monday's contest. However, head coach Steve Nash is hopeful that Durant is cleared in time for Thursday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. It's a possibility, considering Tuesday would mark 10 days for Durant in the protocols, so a […]

Kevin Durant Remains Out On Monday

Brooklyn Nets forward Kevin Durant has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. That means, the superstar forward will miss at least one more game due to protocols. As a result, James Harden will serve as the focal point on offense, while Patty Mills will see more chances on offense. Harden […]

Damian Lillard Listed As Questionable For Monday

Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard (personal) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. The fact he is tagged as questionable means there's a chance Lillard returns in time to play. Otherwise, Anfernee Simons would slide into the starting five on Monday. He has been inconsistent this season, which makes him […]

Anthony Edwards Not Available For Monday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards won't be available for Monday's game against the Boston Celtics. The young guard will sit out due to the league's health and safety protocols. The Wolves will be without seven players including Edwards, Karl-Anthony Towns, and D'Angelo Russell. That being said, Malik Beasley will see all the minutes he can […]

Austin Rivers To Join Starting Five

Denver Nuggets guard Austin Rivers will move into the starting five for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. Aaron Gordon (hamstring) is sidelined again, which usually means Vlatko Cancar gets the start. However, the Nuggets decided to shake it up and have Rivers start instead. To be honest, neither player is much of a […]

Isaiah Hartenstein Remains Without A Timetable

Los Angeles Clippers center Isaiah Hartenstein (ankle) remains without a timetable, according to head coach Ty Lue. He injured his ankle on December 18 and has missed each of the last two games. The organization is calling the issue a sprained left ankle, so hopefully it won't cost him too much time. Serge Ibaka should […]

Luke Kennard Moves Into Starting Five

Los Angeles Clippers guard Luke Kennard will enter the starting five for Sunday's game against the Denver Nuggets. Paul George (elbow) is expected to miss around a month of action, so Kennard should see plenty of starts ahead of him. As a starter, Kennard is averaging 16.0 points, 4.8 rebounds, 2.7 dimes, and 3.8 triples […]

Aaron Gordon Downgraded To Doubtful

Denver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon (hamstring) has been downgraded to doubtful for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. It looks like Gordon could miss his second straight game due to left hamstring soreness. His absence would likely result in another start for Vlatko Cancar. He was decent during his last outing and could have […]

Keelan Cole Catches Both Targets

New York Jets wide receiver Keelan Cole was fairly quiet during the Week 16 matchup against the Jacksonville Jaguars. He hauled in both of his targets for 25 yards in the win. Cole has finished with two receptions or less in five of his last six games. The Jets were without their top three receiving […]

Tyler Kroft Targeted Five Times

New York Jets tight end Tyler Kroft has resumed his role as the starting tight end for this offense. In Week 16, Kroft hauled in three of his five targets for 29 yards in the win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. It was a game where quarterback Zach Wilson barely got over 100 passing yards on […]

Braxton Berrios Returns Kick For Touchdown In Victory

New York Jets wide receiver Braxton Berrios made his presence known in multiple ways on Sunday. He was expected to have a bigger role on offense with Elijah Moore (protocols) and Jamison Crowder (calf) both sidelined. Berrios hauled in five of his six targets for 37 yards in the win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. However, […]

Tevin Coleman Gets 14 Carries

New York Jets running back Tevin Coleman continues to remain part of the offensive attack despite Michael Carter returning to the field. In Week 16, Coleman rushed 14 times for 57 yards in the win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. This was the third time in four games that Coleman has seen double digit carries. Carter […]
