Bam Adebayo Registers 15-12-6 Line
Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo had a solid performance in Wednesday's loss to the Grizzlies, picking up 15 points on 5-for-11 shooting with 12 rebounds and six assists. He added one steal on the defensive end while shooting 5-for-6 at the foul line. Adebayo's shooting has been a bit disappointing since he made his return […]

Christian Wood Returns To Action With Productive Performance
Houston Rockets center Christian Wood made his return to the lineup on Wednesday, going for 21 points, nine rebounds, two assists, and one block in a 108-94 loss to Golden State. He played 26 minutes in what was his first game since Feb. 4. Wood looked in great form with 8-for-12 shooting but should've done […]

Isiah Kiner-Falefa Triples In Second Straight Game
Texas Rangers shortstop Isiah Kiner-Falefa went 2-for-2 with a triple on Wednesday against the Arizona Diamondbacks. It was his second triple in as many games. The catcher-turned-shortstop is on a recent hot streak and is 4-for-9 with three extra-base hits over his past three games. For the season, Kiner-Falefa is 7-for-22 (.318) with a BB-K […]

Fantasy Basketball Mid-Week Streamers for Week 12
Our one and only, Milos Zvekic broke down the Week 12 streamers earlier this week and will continue to do so all season long. I will be chiming in mid-week to add some sprinkles and frosting onto the beautifully baked Zvekic cake. For the rest of Week 11 (Thursday to Sunday), there are 11 teams with […]

Josh Norris Gets Another Goal Versus Canucks
Ottawa Senators center Josh Norris scored his seventh goal of the season in Wednesday's 3-2 shootout loss to Vancouver, joining Ryan Dzingel on the scoresheet. The 21-year-old rookie also scored against the Canucks in Monday's 3-2 overtime loss. Norris started the week on a five-game point drought, but it was only a matter of time […]

Bo Horvat Picks Up Two Points In Wednesday's Win
Vancouver Canucks center Bo Horvat had a two-point outing on Wednesday, helping the team to a 3-2 shootout victory over Ottawa with a goal and an assist. He combined with Nate Schmidt to help Brock Boeser get the scoring started and then potted his 13th marker of the season. The Canucks captain was busy all […]

Mika Zibanejad Records Six-Point Period
New York Rangers center Mika Zibanejad was unconscious in the second period of Wednesday's 9-0 victory over Philadelphia, scoring a natural hat trick with goals from every situation and adding three assists. He became the second player in NHL history to record six points in a single period. Zibanejad had only three goals and 11 […]

Tyler Bozak Returns To Action
St. Louis Blues forward Tyler Bozak, who has been out since Jan. 26, will finally be back in the lineup for Wednesday's meeting with the Kings. He battled with a concussion and was forced to miss 21 games. Bozak collected two points in seven games prior to getting hurt. St. Louis also hoped to get […]

Chandler Stephenson, Alex Tuch Questionable For Wednesday
Vegas Golden Knights forwards Chandler Stephenson and Alex Tuch are both game-time decisions for Wednesday's matchup with the Sharks. Stephenson already missed Monday's 2-1 victory over San Jose, while Tuch could end up missing his first game of the year. Stephenson has been the first-line center this season and Cody Glass replaced him in the […]

Marc Gasol Remains Sidelined On Thursday
Los Angeles Lakers center Marc Gasol is out against the Charlotte Hornets on Thursday. Gasol has not played since before the All-Star break while in the league's COVID-19 health and safety protocols, but he should be somewhat near a return as players have been typically out for about two weeks, on average, due to the league's […]

Fantasy Basketball Dynasty Risers - Week 12
The G League has infiltrated the NBA! The Oklahoma City Thunder and Houston Rockets both tapped into their top G League performers after the All-Star break and it’s significantly changed the makeup of the two teams this past week. The moves have opened up some intriguing fantasy targets for both season-long and dynasty leagues. The […]

Darius Bazley Out Again Thursday
Oklahoma City Thunder forward Darius Bazley (shoulder) will not play Thursday against the Atlanta Hawks. Bazley has missed the past few games with a nagging shoulder injury, but there have not been many details surrounding how he suffered the injury. Regardless, Bazley's absence has lead to Aleksej Pokusevski entering the starting lineup. "Poku" has been […]

Harry Giles III Earns Probable Tag Thursday
Portland Trail Blazers forward/center Harry Giles III (calf) is listed as probable to play Thursday against the New Orleans Pelicans. Giles has not played since February 14th and will likely be eased back into the lineup given the nature of calf injuries. Giles is likely suited best on your waiver wire, but he was a […]

Ben McLemore Remains Sidelined With Ankle Injury
Houston Rockets guard Ben McLemore (ankle) has been ruled out Wednesday against the Golden State Warriors. McLemore missed the first leg of the back-to-back as well and Kevin Porter Jr. was given a ton of minutes. With Victor Oladipo (rest) out as well, Porter should see huge usage in the backcourt Wednesday. The good news […]

Serge Ibaka Out Again Wednesday Night
Los Angeles Clippers forward/center Serge Ibaka (back) will miss his second straight game Wednesday against the Dallas Mavericks. Ibaka has been dealing with lower back tightness which can be troublesome to play through, but it should not be a long-term absence. Ivica Zubac got the spot start Monday and came up with a 15-point, 11-rebound […]

Clint Capela, Onyeka Okongwu Questionable For Thursday
Atlanta Hawks centers Clint Capela (heel) and Onyeka Okongwu (groin) have both been deemed questionable to participate in Thursday's game against the Thunder. The duo have missed the past two contests due to their respective injuries, which has paved the way for John Collins to take over as a small-ball center and for Danilo Gallinari […]

D.J. Wilson, D.J. Augustin Join Rockets Mix
Power forward/center D.J. Wilson and point guard D.J. Augustin have been traded to the Houston Rockets in a four-player swap that was completed Wednesday. Wilson is the more tantalizing of the two due to his age (25) and athleticism for a team that is lacking current frontcourt depth. Augustin appeared in 37 games (six starts) […]

P.J. Tucker, Rodions Kurucs Land In Milwaukee
Power forwards/centers P.J. Tucker and Rodions Kurucs have been dealt to the Milwaukee Bucks, alongside the team's 2022 first-round draft pick, which was returned in a deal with the Houston Rockets. Tucker has sat out the past four games in hopes of having his trade request filled, as he's now expected to play the role […]

Dwight Powell Returns To Lineup Wednesday
Dallas Mavericks center Dwight Powell (illness) has been given the green light to get back into action for Wednesday's game against the Clippers. Powell was down for Monday's meeting between the two squads because of an illness, with his return likely to pull some minutes away from Maxi Kleber and Willie Cauley-Stein. Powell snatched a […]

Pascal Siakam, Fred VanVleet Cleared For Return Wednesday
Toronto Raptors power forward/center Pascal Siakam, point/shooting guard Fred VanVleet, shooting guard/small forward Patrick McCaw and point guard Malachi Flynn have all been given the green light to return to action Wednesday against the Pistons after clearing the league's health and safety protocols. Siakam has missed Toronto's past six games, while VanVleet has been on […]

Christian Wood, Danuel House Jr. Have Minutes Restrictions
Houston Rockets center Christian Wood (ankle) and forward Danuel House Jr. (knee) will be back in action on Wednesday against the Warriors. Both players will be on minutes restrictions, though head coach Stephen Silas didn't specify any further. Still, it's great news for fantasy managers, particularly those who have Wood on their rosters, as he […]

Meyers Leonard Won’t Play For Thunder
Oklahoma City Thunder power forward/center Meyers Leonard was dealt to his new organization Wednesday, but he will not actually see action with the squad. With Oklahoma City receiving a future second-round Draft choice as compensation for Trevor Ariza, they will look to move on from Leonard in the future in light of his off-the-court comments. […]

Hassan Whiteside Returns Wednesday, Has Minutes Cap
Sacramento Kings center Hassan Whiteside has been cleared to get back on the floor for Wednesday's game against Washington after having passed through the league's health and safety protocols. Not having suited up since Feb. 21, Whiteside will see his minutes limited versus the Wizards, although he has exceeded the 17-minute mark just once in […]

James Wiseman, Eric Paschall Out Against Rockets
Golden State Warriors center James Wiseman and forward Eric Paschall are out for Wednesday's game against the Rockets. It's unclear at this moment how long both players will be out, though it presents a clear opportunity in the Warriors front court. Kevon Looney can be expected to step up, though the real fantasy winner here is Draymond […]

Kemba Walker, Tristan Thompson Won't Play Against Cleveland
Boston Celtics guard Kemba Walker (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Cleveland. Center Tristan Thompson (health and safety protocols) remains out. Neither absence is surprising, given that Walker generally has been rested on the second half of back-to-backs this year- and Thompson has already been sidelined for one game. Jayson Tatum and […]

Christian Wood Expected To Return On Wednesday
Houston Rockets center Christian Wood (ankle) is expected to suit up for Wednesday's game against the Washington Wizards. The Rockets are 0-17 since Wood suffered his right ankle sprain. The organization desperately needs him back with so many other players sidelined right now. He'd be a favorable DFS option, assuming he suits up because he'd […]
