Joel Embiid Sitting On Wednesday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (rest) won't play in Wednesday's game versus the Cleveland Cavaliers. The 2023 Most Valuable Player made his 2024-25 debut in Tuesday's loss to the New York Knicks. However, he had a rough night, scoring 13 points off 2-for-11 shooting from the field. With Andre Drummond (illness) also out, Guerschon Yabusele […]

Jose Alvarado Out Against OKC

New Orleans Pelicans guard Jose Alvarado (hamstring) won't play in Wednesday's contest against the Thunder. The Pels are thin currently, with Jordan Hawkins (back), Herbert Jones (shoulder), CJ McCollum (adductor), Dejounte Murray (hand), and Zion Williamson (hamstring) all on the shelf. But now Alvarado will join them after tweaking his hamstring in Monday's narrow loss […]

Zach LaVine Back On The Injury Report For Wednesday

Chicago Bulls guard/forward Zach LaVine (adductor) is probable heading into Wednesday's game in New York. His presence on the injury report isn't anything new, so he should be out there against the Knicks, barring a setback. LaVine's name has been tied to trade rumors for years. Yet, things intensified during the offseason. But he remains […]

Luka Doncic Cleared To Play Against The Warriors

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (groin) is good to go for Tuesday's matchup against the Golden State Warriors. He was listed as probable heading into this one. However, Doncic was downgraded to a game-time decision hours before the contest. Fortunately, fantasy managers will have the multi-time All-Star in the lineup, although that means Spencer Dinwiddie […]

Donovan Clingan Starting Versus Minnesota

Portland Trail Blazers center Donovan Clingan will start in Tuesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. The rookie has averaged 4.8 points, 4.8 rebounds, and 1.6 blocks this season. However, with Deandre Ayton (finger) ruled out, Clingan will get a chance to show his stuff. Without question, he'll be a popular late-night DFS option, although Robert […]

Deandre Ayton Sidelined Versus The Timberwolves

Portland Trail Blazers center Deandre Ayton (finger) won't play in Tuesday's matchup versus the Minnesota Timberwolves. The 2018 No. 1 overall pick has averaged 13.3 points and 10.5 assists this season. He's also shot a career-high 38.5% from behind the arc. But he'll miss his first game of the 2024-25 campaign due to a sprained […]

Andrew Wiggins Good To Go Versus The Mavs

Golden State Warriors forward Andrew Wiggins (back) will play in Tuesday's matchup against the Dallas Mavericks. He was listed as questionable because of lower back soreness. However, the injury isn't anything new, with Wiggins already missing time during the 2024-25 campaign because of it. The 2014 No. 1 overall pick has played well this season, […]

P.J. Washington Ruled Out Versus Golden State

Dallas Mavericks forward P.J. Washington (knee) won't suit up for Tuesday's meeting with the Golden State Warriors. The 2019 No. 12 overall pick has averaged 9.4 points, 7.7 rebounds, 1.6 steals, and 1.3 blocks this season. Unfortunately, he'll now miss his fourth-straight contest because of a knee injury he picked up during the November 4 […]

Luka Doncic Now A Game-Time Decision

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (groin) is now considered a game-time decision heading into Tuesday's matchup with Golden State. The multi-time All-Star was initially listed as probable, so most assumed he'd be out there. However, he's in danger of missing his first game of the 2024-25 campaign. If Doncic can't get on the floor, Kyrie […]

Al Horford Will Play Versus Atlanta

Boston Celtics forward/center Al Horford (toe) will suit up for Tuesday's meeting with the Atlanta Hawks. He was listed as questionable because of a toe sprain. But the Celtics will have him on the court to begin the Emirates NBA cup. The 38-year-old isn't as productive as he once was, averaging 8.7 points, 5.7 rebounds, […]

Jayson Tatum Will Play On Tuesday

According to Boston Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla, forward Jayson Tatum (ankle) will play in Tuesday's game against the visiting Hawks. The multi-time All-Star was listed as questionable because of a sprained left ankle. However, that won't keep him off the floor on Tuesday night. Even better, he won't have any restrictions. Tatum has averaged […]

Joel Embiid To See Fewer Minutes On Tuesday

According to Philadelphia 76ers head coach Nick Nurse, center Joel Embiid (knee, suspension) will play between 25-30 minutes in Tuesday's game against the New York Knicks. He hasn't played all season, so it will likely take him a few games before he logs his usual allotment of minutes. With that said, Embiid is still a […]

Isaiah Stewart Cleared To Suit Up

Detroit Pistons forward/center Isaiah Stewart (ankle) is cleared to play in Tuesday's matchup against Miami. He was listed as probable, so there wasn't much doubt concerning his availability. Stewart has been getting some extra minutes while Jalen Duren (ankle) was on the shelf the last two games. However, with Duren returning versus the Heat, Stewart's […]

Jalen Duren Back On Tuesday Night

Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (ankle) will play on Tuesday against the Miami Heat. The 20-year-old tweaked his ankle during the November 6 meeting with the Charlotte Hornets and missed the last two games as a result. But now that Duren is back in the mix, fantasy managers can get him back in their starting […]

Walker Kessler Won't Play On Tuesday

Utah Jazz center Walker Kessler (hip) won't play in Tuesday's game versus the Phoenix Suns. He's dealing with hip soreness, so he'll miss his first game of the 2024-25 campaign. The 23-year-old has averaged only 9.2 points this season. However, he's logged career-highs in rebounds (10.7) and blocks (2.8). Without him, John Collins and Drew […]

Immanuel Quickley Sidelined Again With Another Injury

Toronto Raptors guard Immanuel Quickley (elbow) will be sidelined after sustaining a partial tear to his ulnar collateral ligament in his left elbow. The team will re-evaluate him in a week and provide an update "as appropriate." It's rough news for the 25-year-old, even more so since he has only appeared in three games this […]

P.J. Washington Not Expected To Face The Warriors

Dallas Mavericks forward P.J. Washington (knee) isn't expected to play in Tuesday's game against the Warriors. The former Hornet is battling a knee sprain. Unfortunately, it appears he'll miss his fourth-consecutive game on Tuesday night. If that's the case, Naji Marshall, averaging 12.3 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 1.0 steals in three starts this season, remains […]

Dereck Lively II Questionable For Tuesday Night

Dallas Mavericks center Dereck Lively II (shoulder) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Warriors. The 20-year-old injured his shoulder during warmups ahead of the November 4 matchup against the Indiana Pacers, so he's been on the shelf for the last four games. With P.J. Washington (knee) doubtful, the Mavs could be without some of […]

Isaiah Stewart Draws A Probable Tag For Tuesday

Detroit Pistons center Isaiah Stewart (ankle) is probable for Tuesday's game versus the Miami Heat. With Jalen Duren (ankle) sidelined for the last few games, Stewart has been handling business underneath the basket. However, he's struggled this season, averaging 5.5 points, 7.3 rebounds, and 1.4 blocks. But if Duren remains out, Stewart's ceiling should remain […]

Jalen Duren Questionable Versus The Heat

Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (ankle) is questionable heading into Tuesday's meeting with the Miami Heat. The 20-year-old sprained his ankle during the November 6 matchup with the Charlotte Hornets and has missed the last two games as a result. Fortunately, the questionable tag gives him a chance to play. If anything, it at least […]

Jimmy Butler Still Out On Tuesday Night

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (ankle) won't play in Tuesday's game against the Pistons. This will mark his second-consecutive absence because of a sprained ankle. But Miami doesn't play again until Friday in Indiana, so, hopefully, the extra days off will allow him to get back on the floor. Without Butler in the equation, Haywood […]

Malik Monk Out At Least Two Weeks

Sacramento Kings guard Malik Monk (ankle) will be re-evaluated in two weeks after suffering a "moderate" right ankle sprain in Sunday's win over the Phoenix Suns. The 2017 No. 11 overall pick has provided valuable minutes off the bench for the Kings, averaging 12.6 points, 3.0 rebounds, and 2.8 assists. But now that he'll be […]

Luka Doncic Probable Versus The Warriors

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (groin) is probable heading into Tuesday's meeting with the Warriors. This is his second time listed on the injury report because of a left groin strain. However, it didn't keep Doncic off the floor for Sunday's loss to the Denver Nuggets. He logged 40 minutes in that one, so he […]

Joel Embiid Officially Active For Debut On Tuesday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee, suspension) isn't listed on the injury report, meaning he will play on Tuesday against the New York Knicks. The 30-year-old wasn't ready to suit up to begin the 2024-25 campaign. However, while ready was ready to go, he missed the last three games after he was suspended for a […]

Trae Young Won't Play Against The Celtics

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (Achilles) won't play in Tuesday's meeting with the Celtics. He's dealing with right Achilles Tendinitis, with Tuesday's absence marking his first of the 2024-25 campaign. Outside of Young's turnover woes and 33.3% shooting from behind the arc, he has played well this season, averaging 23.9 points and 11.5 assists. As […]

Wendell Carter Jr. Out Again On Tuesday Night

Orlando Magic center Wendell Carter Jr. (foot) won't play on Tuesday versus the Charlotte Hornets. This will mark his fifth-straight absence, so his next chance to get on the floor will be on Wednesday against the Pacers. In the meantime, Goga Bitadze will likely remain with the first five, with the 25-year-old averaging 10.5 points, […]

Chet Holmgren Exits Sunday's Game With A Hip Injury

Oklahoma City Thunder center Chet Holmgren (hip) exited Sunday's loss to the Golden State Warriors. The 2022 No. 2 overall pick didn't last long in this one, logging just five minutes before taking a hard fall on his hip. But considering he needed to be helped off the court, fantasy managers likely won't have him […]

Joe Flacco To Remain The Starting QB

According to Indianapolis Colts head coach Shane Steichen, quarterback Joe Flacco will remain under center "until he says otherwise." With Anthony Richardson benched, Flacco threw for 272 yards and two touchdowns off 26-for-35 passing in Sunday's loss to Buffalo. However, he also tossed three interceptions, with one resulting in a pick-six. With that in mind, […]

Darius Slay Jr. Questionable To Return On Sunday

Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Darius Slay Jr. (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's NFC East showdown with the Dallas Cowboys. The 33-year-old entered Week 10 with 27 tackles, one forced fumble, and five passes defensed. But after missing the Week 9 matchup with the Jacksonville Jaguars because of a groin injury, he lasted just three […]

Bub Carrington Available On Sunday

Washington Wizards guard Bub Carrington (wrist) is available to play in Sunday's meeting with the Magic. The rookie has played well this season, averaging 10.3 points, 5.3 assists, 5.1 rebounds, and 1.3 steals. While he's been banged up throughout the year, his most recent ailment won't keep him off the floor on Sunday night. With […]
