We are back down to four games on our Thursday NBA slate. We're going to have a ton of Phoenix value against the Hawks and maybe some Lakers value after the deadline deal that dealt Russ yesterday. That's even before the nightly load management news that comes out seconds before lock. With both FanDuel and […]
Drew Eubanks Available On Wednesday
Portland Trail Blazers center Drew Eubanks (back) is available for Wednesday's game against the Golden State Warriors. The big man is expected to make his fourth straight start with Jusuf Nurkic (calf) still sidelined. Normally, Eubanks would be an intriguing streaming option, but he hasn't been too sharp lately. He's averaging 7.7 points and 4.3 […]
Joel Embiid Good To Go Against Celtics
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot) has been cleared to play and will start Wednesday against the Boston Celtics. Embiid was a game-time decision as he continues to deal with foot soreness, but should be fine for his normal workload. The Celtics are without Robert Williams III (ankle) and Al Horford (knee), paving the way […]
Al Horford And Robert Williams III Both Out Wednesday
The Boston Celtics have ruled out centers Al Horford (knee) and Robert Williams III (ankle) for Wednesday's contest against the Philadelphia 76ers. Horford and Williams were both listed as questionable, but were unable to push through to play against the Sixers. Grant Williams, Blake Griffin and Luke Kornet should all see increased roles while opposing […]
Jack Hughes Leaves Practice Early With Injury
New Jersey Devils forward Jack Hughes didn't finish Wednesday's practice session because of an upper-body injury. He was hurt in Monday's game against Vancouver and also had a maintenance day Tuesday. It's now unclear if he will be able to play Thursday versus Seattle. Hughes has been in incredible form, matching a franchise record with […]
Aleksander Barkov A Game-Time Call Thursday
Florida Panthers center Aleksander Barkov (hand) is a game-time decision for Thursday's matchup against San Jose. He was forced to leave Monday's 7-1 victory over Tampa Bay early after blocking a shot with his hand. Panthers head coach Paul Maurice initially suggested that Barkov will be fine for Thursday, but he has now called Barkov […]
Filip Chytil On Four-Game Goal Streak
New York Rangers forward Filip Chytil will enter Wednesday's action versus Vancouver with a four-game goal streak. Skating on the third line with Alexis Lafreniere and Kaapo Kakko, he has totaled six goals overall during the run and has matched his best point streak of the season. The 23-year-old has amassed 31 points in 42 […]
Ryan Hartman Back On Top Line Wednesday
Minnesota Wild forward Ryan Hartman will return to the top line in Wednesday's game against the Stars. He had a breakout campaign in the role last season but has struggled for form in 2022-23. However, with the first line having struggled in recent times, Wild head coach Dave Evason is giving Hartman another shot with […]
Robert Williams III Downgraded To Questionable
Boston Celtics center Robert Williams III (ankle) has been downgraded to questionable for Wednesday's clash with Philadelphia. He is dealing with a sprained left ankle and was initially probable for the contest, but the change in his status leaves a big question mark hanging over Williams III's head ahead of the mouth-watering matchup. Al Horford […]
Al Horford Questionable On Wednesday
Boston Celtics forward/center Al Horford (knee) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's meeting with the Sixers. The veteran has missed only two games since Dec. 16 and played 33 minutes last time out against the Pistons, but he is a late addition to the injury report with right knee swelling, which isn't a great sign […]
Nikola Jokic Posts Fourth Straight Triple-Double
Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic has now collected four straight triple-doubles and 10 of them in his last 12 games. With that being said, he's also currently averaging a triple-double and already has posted the same amount of them that he had all of last season. The two-time MVP registered 20 points, 12 rebounds, 16 […]
Deandre Ayton Posts Big Double-Double In Win Over Brooklyn
Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton was a force in the paint and midrange on Tuesday night as they took down the Brooklyn Nets 116-112.

Brayden Point Scores Twice Against Sharks

Nathan MacKinnon Notches A Goal In Avalanche Loss
Center Nathan MacKinnon of the Colorado Avalanche was able to get back on the score sheet with his 14th goal in a 2-1 overtime loss to Pittsburgh on Tuesday. The forward had been in a bit of a dry spell before Tuesday's game, having gone three games with just three assists. The goal was also […]
Joel Embiid On Injury Report Again
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (foot) is listed as questionable to play Wednesday against the Boston Celtics.

Daniel Gafford Not Listed On Wednesday's Injury Report
Washington Wizards center Daniel Gafford (leg) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Wednesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Gafford briefly left Monday's game and was noticeably limping after appearing to tweak something in his leg.

Jonas Valanciunas Starting Against Hawks
New Orleans Pelicans center Jonas Valanciunas (quad) is back in the starting lineup against the Atlanta Hawks on Tuesday. Valanciunas was probable to play so this should not be unexpected, but he did miss Sunday's game after going through an MRI. Valanciunas appears to have recovered from his awkward fall on Saturday and should be […]
Rudy Gobert Questionable Again On Tuesday
Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (groin) has popped back up on the injury report with the same groin issue that he's been dealing with for the past couple of weeks.
