Marcus Smart Out Against Cavs

Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart (calf) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He played 33 minutes on Tuesday, but it sounds like the Celtics are going to play it safe with the playoffs starting next week. He'll join a handful of his teammates on the sideline for this one. Evan […]

Kyrie Irving Might Sit Out Versus Spurs

Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving (face) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. He was elbowed in the face during Tuesday's contest, but left under his own power. James Harden (hamstring) is expected to return here, so he'd be asked to carry the load on offense. Mike James, Landry Shamet […]

LeBron James, Anthony Davis Questionable Wednesday

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) and center Anthony Davis (groin) are listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Houston Rockets. It was reported earlier in the week that James was expected to return here. It's a great spot against the horrendous Rockets defense with Davis banged up. The Lakers want their superstars […]

Kemba Walker Resting Wednesday

Boston Celtics guard Kemba Walker (rest, knee) will miss Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. It's the second game of a back-to-back set, so Boston is sticking with their plan of resting Walker. They don't want his knee issue to flare up before the playoffs, so this isn't shocking move by the team. Payton Pritchard […]

Nassir Little Questionable On Wednesday

Portland Trail Blazers forward Nassir Little (back) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Utah Jazz. He exited after five minutes during Monday's game due to back spasms. The Blazers are probably going to let him rest with the playoffs starting next week. Derrick Jones Jr. should see more minutes coming his way, […]

Alex Caruso Unlikely To Suit Up Wednesday

Los Angeles Lakers guard Alex Caruso (foot) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Houston Rockets. He is dealing with a foot contusion and played only seven minutes during Tuesday's contest. LeBron James (ankle) is expected to return here, so the Lakers might decide to play it safe and rest Caruso. James would […]

Robert Williams III Sitting Out On Wednesday

Boston Celtics center Robert Williams III (toe) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He has now missed both sides of the back-to-back set due to a turf toe issue. The best way to heal this kind of issue is rest, so it wouldn't be surprising to see Williams sitting out […]

J.J. Redick Not Playing Against Pelicans

Dallas Mavericks guard J.J. Redick (heel) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. The veteran guard was only able to play two minutes on Tuesday before he was forced out due to a heel issue. It wouldn't be shocking to see the Mavs have Redick rest until the postseason. Jalen […]

Joe Harris Won't Play Wednesday

Brooklyn Nets guard Joe Harris (hip) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. This marks the first game of the entire season that Harris has missed. The playoffs start next week, so this is likely just the Nets giving Harris a rest day. James Harden (hamstring) is expected to suit […]

Ivica Zubac Will Remain Starting Center

Los Angeles Clippers center Ivica Zubac will remain in the starting five going forward, according to head coach Ty Lue. The young big man took over the starting role when Serge Ibaka (back) went down in March. Ibaka has not played in a game since then and it sounds like he'll come off the bench […]

Joel Embiid Won't Play Against Pacers

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (illness) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Indiana Pacers. The superstar center is dealing with a non-COVID related illness. The Sixers are taking the cautious approach here with the No. 1 seed likely locked up. Dwight Howard should see a significant role in the rotation and could […]

Cedi Osman Could Sit Out On Wednesday

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Cedi Osman (ankle) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Boston Celtics. He missed Monday's game, but the fact he is questionable is a step in the right direction. Darius Garland (ankle) remains sidelined, so Osman is an appealing fantasy option when he is actually healthy. Otherwise, Isaac Okoro could […]

Malik Beasley Unlikely To Play Again This Season

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Malik Beasley (hamstring) is unlikely to suit up again this season, according to head coach Chris Finch. This cannot come as shocking news for a player that has missed 17 straight games. The Wolves have no incentive to play Beasley with their current record and only a handful of games left in […]

Steven Adams Might Play On Wednesday

New Orleans Pelicans center Steven Adams (toe) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. He has missed each of the last three games due to a toe issue. The Pelicans don't have any incentive to rush their players back to the court right now. His return would mean less minutes for […]

Daniel Theis Returning Against Nets

Chicago Bulls center Daniel Theis (hip) is available for Tuesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He missed Sunday's game, but it appears he is feeling well enough to suit up here. There is no word on Theis being limited, so fantasy managers can expect him to see his normal workload. Thaddeus Young and Lauri Markkanen […]

Patrick Beverley Moves Into Starting Five

Los Angeles Clippers guard Patrick Beverley will return to the starting five for Tuesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. This is Beverley's first start since returning from injury. Reggie Jackson will shift to the bench, but should still see minutes in the 20s. Head coach Ty Lue prefers having Rajon Rondo and Jackson play together […]

Robert Williams III Sidelined For Tuesday's Game

Boston Celtics center Robert Williams (toe) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Miami Heat. He was only able to play 11 minutes on Sunday before exiting due to the pain in his toe. It sounds like he'll be day-to-day, but could possibly miss another game or two. In the meantime, Tristan Thompson […]

Bruce Brown Available Versus Bulls

Brooklyn Nets guard Bruce Brown (face) is available for Tuesday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He is dealing with a facial contusion and it was unclear if he'd actually play on Tuesday. However, it sounds like he'll slide back into his normal role in the rotation. Sadly, Brown hasn't been very productive lately and can […]

Malcolm Brogdon, Edmond Sumner Out Against Sixers

Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon (hamstring) and Edmond Sumner (knee) will not suit up for Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Brogdon continues to deal with a lingering hamstring issue, so it's uncertain when he'll get back on the court. Sumner attempted to play on Monday, but only lasted 13 minutes. Aaron Holiday and T.J. […]

Jonas Valanciunas Likely Sitting Versus Dallas

Memphis Grizzlies center Jonas Valanciunas (back) is listed as doubtful for Tuesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. It sounds like he is dealing with back soreness, so fantasy managers should consider Valanciunas day-to-day right now. Jaren Jackson Jr. (knee) will join him on the sideline against Dallas. That means, Xavier Tillman and Brandon Clarke will […]

Chris Boucher Joins Starting Five Tuesday

Toronto Raptors center Chris Boucher (knee) will return to the rotation and join the starting five for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. He has been sidelined since late April, but it appears he's healthy enough to play. The Raptors are shorthanded, so Boucher should see all the minutes he can handle. There is […]

Devonte' Graham Is Available On Tuesday

Charlotte Hornets guard Devonte' Graham (knee) is available for Tuesday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He has missed each of the last four games, but will suit up for this one. Sadly, Graham hasn't offered much in terms of fantasy production lately, so he'll be a risky option for Tuesday's slate. His return will mean […]

Aaron Gordon, Monte Morris Returning On Tuesday

Denver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon (calf) and guard Monte Morris (hamstring) are available for Tuesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Gordon sat out one game due to a bruised calf, but it sounds like he won't be limited at all in his return. However, Gordon has really struggled lately, so he'll be a risky DFS […]

Kristaps Porzingis Could Return Wednesday

Dallas Mavericks center Kristaps Porzingis (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. The good news is, head coach Rick Carlisle hinted that Porzingis might be able to suit up for Wednesday's contest. Until then, Dwight Powell, Maxi Kleber, and Willie Cauley-Stein will be asked to pick up the slack. Powell […]

Monte Morris Upgraded To Questionable For Tuesday

Denver Nuggets guard Monte Morris (hamstring) has been upgraded to questionable for Tuesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. It appears Morris is finally on the verge of getting back on the floor. That is good news with Will Barton (hamstring) likely out until at least the postseason. Morris is expected to be eased back into […]

Brandon Ingram Remains Out Against Grizzlies

New Orleans Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Pelicans GM David Griffin said Ingram was out indefinitely, so fantasy managers shouldn't expect to see him again this season. James Johnson will remain a solid streaming play, while Eric Bledsoe is becoming a sneaky DFS option.

Steven Adams Unlikely To Play Monday

New Orleans Pelicans center Steven Adams (toe) is listed as doubtful for Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. It sounds highly unlikely that Adams does suit up for this contest. The Pelicans don't have much incentive to play their veteran big man in this game. Instead, Jaxson Hayes should get plenty of minutes, while Willy […]

Kevin Love Will Rest Against Pacers

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Kevin Love (rest) has been ruled out or Monday's game against the Indiana Pacers. The Cavs aren't in the playoff picture, so they don't have much incentive to play Love throughout the rest of the season. He'll join Darius Garland (ankle), Cedi Osman (ankle) and Isaiah Hartenstein (head) on the sideline for […]

Cedi Osman Won't Play Monday

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Cedi Osman (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Indiana Pacers. This is not good news with Darius Garland (ankle) out for the rest of the regular season. Damyean Dotson will be the next man in line and should see all the minutes he can handle. He shouldn't be […]

Grayson Allen Sitting Out Against Pelicans

Memphis Grizzlies guard Grayson Allen (abdominal) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. The young guard will sit this one out and could very well miss the rest of the regular season. Desmond Bone and De'Anthony Melton will be asked to pick up the slack without Allen available. Melton has […]
