Victor Wembanyama Ruled Out For Sunday

San Antonio Spurs center Victor Wembanyama (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Detroit Pistons due to right ankle injury management. As the Spurs sit near the bottom of the Western Conference standings, they will let their young superstar rest. The prized rookie will end his season on a high note after […]

Luis Campusano Out Of Lineup On Saturday

San Diego Padres catcher Luis Campusano is out of the lineup on Saturday in the Padres matchup against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Kyle Higashioka will be starting in his place. Campusano has been the starting catcher in six of the Padres last seven games so this is likely just a rest day for the 25-year-old. […]

Andre Drummond Out Again On Sunday

Chicago Bulls center Andre Drummond (ankle) won't play on Sunday against the Knicks. The veteran sprained his ankle when these clubs met on Tuesday and has missed Chicago's previous two contests. The team hopes to have him back for the Play-In. However, there's the possibility that Drummond won't be on the floor for the Bulls […]

Joel Embiid Questionable For Regular-Season Finale

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) is questionable for Sunday's regular-season finale versus the Brooklyn Nets. The reigning MVP amassed 32 points, 13 rebounds, seven assists, and a block in the win over the Orlando Magic on Friday evening. He might have been even more productive. However, Embiid tweaked his left knee, forcing him to […]

Keibert Ruiz Remains Out With Illness

Washington Nationals catcher Keibert Ruiz (illness) remains out of the Nationals lineup for the fourth straight day as he continues to battle an illness. The 25-year-old should not see a stint on the IL and remains day-to-day. Riley Adams will serve as the catcher and make his sixth start of the season. He will be […]

J.T. Realmuto Out of Saturday’s Lineup

Philadelphia Phillies catcher J.T. Realmuto will be resting on Saturday as the Phillies continue a four-game set against the Pittsburgh Pirates. Realmuto went 0-3 with a walk last night and has a cumulative .267/.327/.400 stat line. He has hit two home runs and brought in four runs. Garrett Stubbs will catch for Spencer Turnbull and […]

Francisco Alvarez Getting The Day Off On Saturday

New York Mets backstop Francisco Alvarez will be getting the day off on Saturday as the New York Mets continue a three-game series against the Kansas City Royals. Alvarez went 1-4 in last night's victory and has an overall .293/.326/.463 line with one home run to begin the season. Veteran catcher Omar Narvaez will receive […]

Five Injured Players to Stash in Fantasy Baseball - Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 3

Over the last week, there has been a massive wave of season-ending injuries across Major League Baseball. If your fantasy team lost one of its key players in the wake, it's probably time to hit the waiver wire. This article will highlight five injured players worth stashing in fantasy baseball. The injured list has recently […]

Joel Embiid Tweaks Knee In Win Over Orlando

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) logged 32 minutes in Friday's much-needed victory over the Orlando Magic. He finished with a 32-point, 13-rebound double-double, adding seven assists and a block. However, the reigning MVP took a hard fall in the second quarter, with head coach Nick Nurse reporting that he tweaked the same knee that […]

Samuel Basallo Off To A Strong Start In 2024

Baltimore Orioles catcher prospect Samuel Basallo is picking up right where he left off in Double-A. Basallo has tallied six hits across his first five games with one double and two RBI. Last season, Basallo knocked seven hits in four games with one double and one triple in his small taste of Double-A. Basallo is […]

Jalen Duren Will Not Play Friday

Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (back) is out for Friday's contest against the Dallas Mavericks. The 20-year-old put up a terrific game on Thursday versus the Chicago Bulls, scoring 20 points and pulling down 11 rebounds. However, the Pistons will let their young center rest and recover from low back spasms. The Pistons sit in […]

Anthony Davis Active Versus Memphis

Los Angeles Lakers forward Anthony Davis (eye) will play on Friday against Memphis. He was listed as probable, so the update isn't a surprise. But AD has not only been dealing with an eye injury, but he also missed time because of an illness. As a result, Davis could see fewer minutes if the Lakers […]

Nikola Jokic Will Meet The Spurs

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (hip) will play on Friday versus San Antonio. No surprise here, as the multi-time MVP has been on the injury report over the last few weeks. With that said, Jokic has had a fantastic year. However, he's dominated the Spurs this season, most recently amassing 42 points, 16 rebounds, six […]

Isaiah Jackson Unavailable On Friday

Indiana Pacers forward/center Isaiah Jackson (hamstring) has been ruled out for Friday's contest against Cleveland. He's gone from questionable to out due to a left hamstring strain. Jackson's absence means a heavy workload for Myles Turner and Jalen Smith against Cleveland's twin towers of Jarrett Allen and Evan Mobley. It's a rough matchup for the […]

Keibert Ruiz Remains Out On Friday

Washington Nationals catcher Keibert Ruiz (illness) remains out of the starting lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Oakland Athletics. Ruiz is set to miss his third game in a row due to an illness. The good news is that this shouldn't be something that lands Ruiz on the injured list. In the meantime, Riley […]

Joel Embiid Will Play On Friday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) will play on Friday versus the Magic. He was listed as questionable for this contest. But with the Sixers looking to bolster their chances of avoiding the Play-In, the reigning MVP will be on the floor. With that said, although Embiid is still working his way back from his […]

Clint Capela Will Play On Friday

Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela will be in the lineup on Friday against Minnesota. He was initially listed as questionable for the game, as Atlanta considered resting Capela, but the Swiss big man has been upgraded to available. However, the Hawks have nothing left to play for, so Capela's role could be limited in Friday's […]

Brook Lopez Upgraded To Available For Friday

Milwaukee Bucks center Brook Lopez (rest) will be available to play in Friday's contest against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The 36-year-old appeared as questionable on the injury report earlier but has now been cleared to take the court. He has scored in double figures in five straight games and will likely have more opportunities to […]

Nick Richards Out On Friday Night

Charlotte Hornets center Nick Richards (foot) won't play on Friday against the Celtics. The 26-year-old hasn't been as productive as he was a few months ago, so his absence isn't much of a blow for fantasy managers. However, with Richards and Grant Williams (ankle) both ruled out, Aleksej Pokusevski should draw serious value consideration for […]

Kristaps Porzingis, Al Horford Unavailable Friday

Boston Celtics forward/center Kristaps Porzingis (hamstring) and forward/center Al Horford (toe) will step out of the lineup on Friday against Charlotte. After losing to New York 118-109 on Thursday, Boston gives all of its key guys rest on Friday, with Xavier Tillman Sr. and Luke Kornet direct beneficiaries from the frontcourt absentees. The stage is […]

Day'Ron Sharpe Won't Face The Knicks

Brooklyn Nets center Day'Ron Sharpe (wrist) won't play on Friday versus the Knicks. He has a wrist injury, although there's no sense in putting him on the floor for a meaningless game for Brooklyn. With Dorian Finney-Smith (knee) also out, Noah Clowney, coming off a 10-point, seven-rebound, seven-block performance, has an even higher ceiling for […]

Isaiah Hartenstein Sitting On Friday

New York Knicks forward/center Isaiah Hartenstein (Achilles) won't play on Friday against the Nets. He had a double-double with six assists and two blocks in Thursday's win over the Boston Celtics. But the 25-year-old will sit this one out to rest before presumably suiting up for New York's final regular season game on Sunday. Nonetheless, […]

Nikola Vucevic Will Not Play On Friday

Chicago Bulls center Nikola Vucevic (rest) won't feature against the Wizards on Friday. He sits out the second leg of a back-to-back for rest purposes. With Andre Drummond (ankle) already on the shelf, it looks like we'll get to know Adama Sanogo a lot better on Friday. Smaller lineups could also give extra playing time […]

Richaun Holmes Remains Out On Friday

Washington Wizards forward/center Richaun Holmes (toe) won't be able to return to the lineup on Friday against Chicago. The team has downgraded Holmes from questionable to out, meaning an eighth consecutive absence for him. Tristan Vukcevic is available again on Friday and should make another start in a decent matchup. The 21-year-old has looked very […]

Walker Kessler Still Out On Friday

Utah Jazz center Walker Kessler (nose) will skip a fifth consecutive game on Friday versus the Clippers. He continues to recover from a nasal fracture. There's no John Collins (back) either for the Jazz, meaning a big dosage of Omer Yurtseven, Darius Bazley, and Luka Samanic on the frontcourt. The latter had the best game […]

John Collins Remains Out Of Jazz Lineup

Utah Jazz forward/center John Collins (back) has been ruled out for Friday's contest against the Clippers. He will miss a seventh consecutive game with back spasms. Omer Yurtseven has taken over as Utah's starting center. He's averaging 8.6 points and 8.2 rebounds in the role. The Clippers give up the eighth-most rebounds in the league […]

Karl-Anthony Towns Will Play On Friday

Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) will officially suit up ahead of Friday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. The big man will make his first appearance on the court since suffering a left meniscus injury in early March. Fantasy managers should not expect Towns to have a full workload on Friday. It's his first game […]

Adley Rutschman Not In Friday’s Lineup

Baltimore Orioles catcher Adley Rutschman will be getting the night off on Friday evening as the O's play host to the Milwaukee Brewers for a three-game set. The All-Star catcher is off to a strong start to the 2024 campaign as he has tallied 13 hits in 12 games and has an overall .271/.333/.313 stat […]
