Taavi Pailk 3 years agoAaron Gordon, JaMychal Green Good To Go Against Thunder
Denver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon (hamstring) and forward/center JaMychal Green (ankle, knee) will be available Wednesday night against the Thunder. The latter returns from a three-game absence. Oklahoma City is a weak defensive team that also doesn't rebound the ball well, so Gordon finds himself in a good spot to perform. Green is logging backup […]
Taavi Pailk 3 years agoSkylar Mays Gets His First Start On Wednesday
Atlanta Hawks guard Skylar Mays will record his first career start on Wednesday against Orlando. The Hawks are short of bodies because of the team's COVID-19 situation and it will give Mays an opportunity to impress.

Cleveland Cavaliers center Tacko Fall will have a night to remember on Wednesday, as he'll record his first career start against Boston.

Houston Rockets center Christian Wood (knee) is expected to play on Wednesday versus Milwaukee.

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Tre Mann (toe) will be available for Wednesday's matchup against Denver.

Taavi Pailk 3 years agoBogdan Bogdanovic Returns To Action Against Orlando
Atlanta Hawks guard/forward Bogdan Bogdanovic (ankle) will end an eight-game absence on Wednesday against Orlando.

Golden State Warriors shooting guard Damion Lee became the team's third player in health and safety protocols on Wednesday, joining Jordan Poole and Andrew Wiggins.

Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham entered the league's health and safety protocols on Wednesday. The Pistons already lost Killian Hayes (illness) at the start of the week and Frank Jackson (ankle) is questionable for Thursday's clash with the Heat, so the backcourt looks extremely thin all of a sudden. Cory Joseph logged a start instead […]

Los Angeles Clippers shooting guard Luke Kennard (hip) will miss Wednesday's contest against the Kings. The 25-year-old sharpshooter has enjoyed a productive month by getting over 16 points per game, but he'll have to take a seat now with right hip soreness. With Reggie Jackson (health and safety protocols) also out, there are a lot […]
Taavi Pailk 3 years agoReggie Jackson Unavailable Because Of COVID-19 Protocols
Los Angeles Clippers point guard Reggie Jackson joined the health and safety protocols on Wednesday, which makes him unavailable for a meeting with the Kings. His absence should give Eric Bledsoe a start. His fantasy stock receives a boost, although the veteran isn't having a great campaign and thus he's a fairly unreliable option. Justise […]
