Chris Boucher Could Miss Tuesday's Game

Toronto Raptors center Chris Boucher (illness) was unable to practice on Monday and is now considered questionable for Tuesday's game against the Orlando Magic. It doesn't sound like too serious of an issue, so fantasy managers should consider Boucher as day-to-day right now. The absence of Boucher will probably mean increased playing time for Kelly […]

Mikael Granlund Good To Go Monday

San Jose Sharks forward Mikael Granlund (lower body) will be in the lineup on Monday versus Boston.

Los Angeles Clippers center Ivica Zubac (back) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers.
