Lonnie Walker Won't Play on Thursday

San Antonio Spurs guard Lonnie Walker IV (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Walker has not been a big part of the Spurs rotation this season. He played 26 minutes on Wednesday, but it's rare to see him play big minutes. He can be left on the waiver […]

Wesley Matthews is Planning Buyout with Knicks

New York Knicks guard/forward Wesley Matthews has agreed on a contract buyout with the Knicks and plans to sign with the Pacers. Matthews has $18.6 million left on his contract, so it was difficult for the Knicks to find a trade partner. Victor Oladipo (knee) is out for the rest of the season, so the […]

Enes Kanter Released By Knicks

New York Knicks center Enes Kanter has been released and will become a free agent. The team was unable to find a trade partner for the $18.6 million dollar big man. It should not take Kanter too long to find another team. His fantasy value will increase wherever he lands, so fantasy owners should keep […]

Tyler Johnson Has Been Traded to Phoenix

Miami Heat guard Tyler Johnson has been traded to the Phoenix Suns in exchange for Ryan Anderson. This is clearly a salary swap move, but Johnson is the better player, so it hurts the Heat. The Suns desperately need guard help, so Johnson should be able to easily play 30 minutes in Phoenix. He needs […]

Courtney Lee, Tim Hardaway Jr. Should Play Wednesday

Dallas Mavericks guard Courtney Lee and guard/forward Tim Hardaway Jr. should be available for Wednesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Both are expected to make their team debuts alongside Trey Burke. Lee didn't do much with the Knicks, but should see a bigger role in Dallas. However, he'll likely only be a deep league option […]

Trey Burke Should Be Available on Wednesday

Dallas Mavericks guard Trey Burke is expected to be available for Wednesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. He will make his team debut, but should remain left on the waiver wire for the moment. Head coach Rick Carlisle will likely have Burke come off the bench at first. He'll compete with Jalen Brunson for playing […]

Julius Randle is Questionable for Wednesday

New Orleans Pelicans forward/center Julius Randle (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Chicago Bulls. Randle is battling a right ankle issue and has been involved in trade rumors. The Pelicans are likely not going to risk anything here, so don't expect Randle to be on the court. Nikola Mirotic (calf) is doubtful, so […]

Anthony Davis Will Sit Out on Wednesday

New Orleans Pelicans forward/center Anthony Davis (personal) will sit out of Wednesday's game against the Chicago Bulls. Davis has been medically cleared to play, but the Pelicans have decided to bench him until after the trade deadline. The Pelicans are banged up, so Jahlil Okafor should see big minutes once again and be a popular […]

Jamal Murray is Questionable on Wednesday

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (ankle) is getting closer to a return, but remains listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets, according to head coach Mike Malone. Monte Morris would lose minutes and value with Murray back on the court. Fantasy owners are going to need to check back closer to game […]

John Collins Will Play on Thursday

Atlanta Hawks forward John Collins (face) will play in Thursday's game against the Toronto Raptors. Collins was forced to leave Monday's contest after suffering a facial laceration. However, it appears he'll be fine to play on Thursday. Omari Spellman won't be asked to do as much with Collins back in the rotation.

Devin Booker is Likely Out on Wednesday

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (hamstring) is listed as out for Wednesday's game against the Utah Jazz. However, this comes from the NBA injury report, so nothing official from the Suns yet. Booker left Monday's game in the fourth quarter after experiencing right hamstring tightness. He was expected to play on Wednesday, but the Suns […]

Wayne Selden is Probable for Wednesday

Chicago Bulls guard/forward Wayne Selden (knee) is listed as probable for Wednesday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Selden is dealing with left knee soreness, but was able to fully practice on Tuesday. Selden has been hit-or-miss, so DFS players probably shouldn't take the risk. He's not really worth owning in most formats right now.

Robert Williams is Questionable for Thursday

Boston Celtics center Robert Williams (back) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Williams is only dealing with back soreness, so nothing major at the moment. Daniel Theis would soak up most of the backup minutes behind Al Horford if Williams is unable to play.

Marcus Morris Will Play Thursday

Boston Celtics forward Marcus Morris (knee) will play in Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Morris is dealing with right knee soreness, but luckily it only forced him to miss one game. Jaylen Brown will head back to the bench and lose some value since it's unlikely that Morris would have any minutes limit.

Kyrie Irving Will Play Thursday

Boston Celtics guard Kyrie Irving (hip) is available for Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Irving has missed three of the last five games due to a left hip injury, but is expected to return on Thursday. Terry Rozier will head back to the bench with Irving back in action against the Lakers.

Reggie Bullock Won't Play on Thursday

Los Angeles Lakers guard/forward Reggie Bullock will not be available for Thursday's game against the Boston Celtics. Bullock was traded to the Lakers from the Pistons, but will go through a post-trade physical on Wednesday. He should be ready to make his debut for the Lakers on Sunday. Bullock won't do enough to warrant owning in […]

Allen Crabbe is Available on Wednesday

Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Allen Crabbe (knee) is available for Wednesday's game against the Denver Nuggets. Crabbe has been sidelined the last two months due to a right knee issue. The Nets are likely going to ease him back into action, so fantasy owners shouldn't expect much from Crabbe. Rodions Kurucs and Shabazz Napier have taken […]

Devin Booker Should Be Fine for Wednesday

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (hamstring) says he felt fine after Monday's game and believes he can play in Wednesday's contest versus the Utah Jazz. Booker left in the fourth quarter of Monday's game against the Rockets due to a right hamstring issue. It doesn't appear the issue was anything serious, so Booker should be […]

Allen Crabbe is Expected to Play on Wednesday

Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Allen Crabbe (knee) was able to fully practice on Tuesday and is expected to play in Wednesday's game against the Denver Nuggets, according to head coach Kenny Atkinson. Crabbe has been out since December 12 due to right knee soreness, but is finally on track to return. However, the Nets are crowded […]

Kris Dunn Will Play on Wednesday

Chicago Bulls guard Kris Dunn (pelvis) was able to fully practice on Tuesday and will play in Wednesday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans, according to head coach Jim Boylen. Dunn didn't practice on Monday due to a bruised pelvis, but it's apparently not significant enough to hold him out of action.

Ish Smith is Sidelined Again on Tuesday

Detroit Pistons guard Ish Smith (groin, rest) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the New York Knicks. Smith missed 19 games in December due to the issue and now is out six more games. He played the last two games, but it appears he's going to rest on Tuesday. Jose Calderon will soak […]

Jusuf Nurkic is Expected to Play on Tuesday

Portland Trail Blazers center Jusuf Nurkic (knee) is not on the injury report and is expected to play on Tuesday versus the Miami Heat. Nurkic was unable to play last Wednesday versus the Jazz. However, the Blazers played just one game last week, so Nurkic has been given plenty of time to rest. Fantasy owners […]

Myles Turner is Questionable Against Lakers

Indiana Pacers forward/center Myles Turner (thigh) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Turner is dealing with a bruised right thigh, but it doesn't appear to be a serious issue. The Pacers may take the cautious approach since Turner does get banged up quite often. Domantas Sabonis would see increased […]

Marcus Morris is Ruled Out for Tuesday

Boston Celtics forward Marcus Morris (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Morris is dealing with right knee soreness, but it hopefully is just a day-to-day type of issue. Gordon Hayward and Semi Ojeleye will soak up a majority of the extra playing time on Tuesday. Hayward is the better […]

Jonas Valanciunas Won't Play on Tuesday

Toronto Raptors center Jonas Valanciunas (thumb) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Head coach Nick Nurse was hopeful that Valanciunas would play, but it appears he'll sit out at least one more contest. However, he's close to returning, so we could see Valanciunas back in the lineup on Thursday against […]

Kyle Lowry Will Play on Tuesday

Toronto Raptors guard Kyle Lowry (back) will play in Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Lowry was listed as doubtful on Monday after he missed practice and didn't play in Sunday's contest. Lowry did say he could've played on Sunday, but decided to take the cautious approach. Fred Vanvleet would return to the bench if […]

John Wall is Likely Sidelined 12 Months

Washington Wizards point guard John Wall (Achilles) is expected to miss roughly 12 months after undergoing surgery to repair his left Achilles tendon. It sounds like Wall is going to be out for a full calendar year, so there's a chance he doesn't return until possibly after the 2020 All-Star break. Wall is most likely […]

Tobias Harris Expected to Play on Tuesday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Tobias Harris (shoulder) is expected to suit up for Tuesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets, according to head coach Doc Rivers. Harris was dealing with a sore right shoulder, but is not listed on the injury report. It's safe to assume that Harris will be out there for Tuesday's contest.

LeBron James Will Play on Tuesday

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (rest) will play in Tuesday's game against the Indiana Pacers. James returned last Thursday versus the Clippers, but was sore afterwards, so he sat out on Saturday against the Warriors. It sounds like James is good to go for this one, so fantasy owners shouldn't have to worry about […]

Jonathon Simmons is Doubtful for Tuesday

Orlando Magic guard/forward Jonathon Simmons (abdominal) is doubtful for Tuesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder, according to head coach Steve Clifford. He's missed each of the last two games and now has been downgraded to doubtful for this one. Fantasy owners should prepare to be without Simmons once again.
