Los Angeles Lakers forward/center Dorian Finney-Smith (shoulder) is questionable for Thursday's matchup against the Washington Wizards. The versatile veteran hurt his right shoulder on Tuesday against the Philadelphia 76ers. Finney-Smith's injury has come at an unfortunate time for the Lakers, as he's an option to cover some of Anthony Davis' (abdomen) minutes. If Finney-Smith can't […]

Gabe Vincent In Danger Of Missing Third Consecutive Game

Los Angeles Lakers guard Gabe Vincent (knee) is regarded as questionable for Thursday's tilt against the Washington Wizards. An issue with his left knee might keep Vincent on the sidelines for a third consecutive game.

Bogdan Bogdanovic Remains Out Thursday

Atlanta Hawks guard/forward Bogdan Bogdanovic (personal) will miss a third straight game on Thursday against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He remains away from the team for personal reasons. Bogdanovic's absence elevates the fantasy value of Garrison Mathews and Vit Krejci, who has been starting recently. Krejci's performances tend to be inconsistent, but he has averaged some […]

Clint Capela Will Not Play On Thursday

Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (back) has been ruled out for a second consecutive game as the team gears up to face the Cleveland Cavaliers on Thursday night.

Jalen Suggs Questionable For Thursday's Game

Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs (quadriceps) has been listed as questionable for Thursday's matchup against the Portland Trail Blazers.

The 22-year-old rookie was hurt at the weekend in a game against the Washington Wizards and sat out Monday's contest versus the Los Angeles Clippers due to a left ankle sprain. However, he will be […]

Rob Dillingham Active Against Suns

Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Rob Dillingham (illness) has been upgraded from questionable to available ahead of Wednesday's tilt against the Phoenix Suns. He is good to go for the contest despite battling an illness. Dillingham has become a regular in the rotation since Minnesota lost Donte DiVincenzo (toe). Over the past five games, the rookie […]

Naz Reid Out On Wednesday

Minnesota Timberwolves forward/center Naz Reid (illness) will not play against the Phoenix Suns Wednesday night.

Doug McDermott Sidelined With An Illness

Sacramento Kings forward Doug McDermott (illness) will not play in Wednesday's contest against the Philadelphia 76ers. The veteran sharpshooter was a late addition to the injury report with an illness. McDermott's absence takes away a three-point threat from Sacramento, but he has played a minimal role in the rotation and shouldn't be a big miss. […]

Josh Hart Will Play Wednesday

New York Knicks guard/forward Josh Hart (knee) will remain in the lineup on Wednesday against the Denver Nuggets. He has been carrying a questionable tag lately due to a sore right knee, but Hart has played through the injury and will do so again on Wednesday. The gritty veteran has sat out just one game […]

Jordan Hawkins Out With An Illness Wednesday

New Orleans Pelicans shooting guard Jordan Hawkins (illness) will skip Wednesday's matchup against the Dallas Mavericks.

However, this isn't a good matchup […]

Jaime Jaquez Jr. Cleared To Play Wednesday

Miami Heat forward Jaime Jaquez Jr. (illness) will return to the lineup on Wednesday against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Gradey Dick Ruled Out For Wednesday

Toronto Raptors guard/forward Gradey Dick (illness) will not take the court against the Washington Wizards on Wednesday.

Agbaji will […]

Alexandre Sarr Will Not Play On Wednesday

Washington Wizards forward/center Alexandre Sarr (ankle) will not play against the Toronto Raptors on Wednesday.
