Malachi Flynn Unavailable For Knicks Debut On Monday

New York Knicks point guard Malachi Flynn (ankle) won't make his team debut on Monday versus Minnesota. He's on the injury report with a right ankle sprain. Flynn will provide some point guard depth behind Jalen Brunson in New York, but he isn't expected to play a large role. Meanwhile, OG Anunoby and Precious Achiuwa, […]

Jrue Holiday Questionable Versus The Spurs

Boston Celtics guard Jrue Holiday (elbow) is questionable for Sunday's meeting with the Spurs. The 33-year-old has regressed in his first season with the Celtics, averaging 13.1 points, more than six points fewer than he had during the 2022-23 campaign while still a member of the Bucks. However, he remains a valuable fantasy commodity, so […]

Trae Young Available Against Washington

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (knee) will play on Sunday against Washington. The 25-year-old appeared on the injury report because of a right knee contusion. However, he's good to go, much to the relief of fantasy managers. Young has had an All-Star season through his first 29 games of the 2023-24 campaign. But he is […]

Trae Young Tagged As Probable For Sunday

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (knee) is listed as probable for Sunday's matchup against the Washington Wizards. Young suffered a right knee contusion during Friday's game, but is expected to play through the issue. If Young sits out, Dejounte Murray would probably shift over to the point guard spot. He'd have increased value as the […]

Trayce Jackson-Davis, Chris Paul To Start On Saturday

Golden State Warriors forward Trayce Jackson-Davis and guard Chris Paul will move into the starting five ahead of Saturday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. Head coach Steve Kerr has decided to shake up the rotation. Kevon Looney and Brandin Podziemski will head to the bench, but should still have significant roles. Out of the bunch, […]

Luka Doncic Cleared To Play On Saturday

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (quad) has been cleared to suit up for Saturday's game against the Golden State Warriors. The superstar guard was questionable coming into this game due to a left quad contusion. Despite that, Doncic will suit up and figures to play his normal role in the rotation. The expectation was that […]

Kyle Lowry Out Again On Saturday Night

Miami Heat guard Kyle Lowry (head) won't play on Saturday versus the Utah Jazz. The veteran will now miss his second consecutive game because of a head contusion, although there's a chance he could return on Monday versus the Los Angeles Clippers. Nonetheless, Lowry has averaged only 9.4 points this season, one of the lowest […]

Immanuel Quickley On The Move To Toronto

The Raptors acquired guard Immanuel Quickley (along with RJ Barrett) from the Knicks in exchange for OG Anunoby, Malachi Flynn, and Precious Achiuwa. Quickley, the No. 25 overall pick in the 2020 NBA Draft, is averaging a career-high 15.0 points this season. Unfortunately, he had issues remaining a consistent focal point on the offensive end […]

Kyrie Irving Tagged As Doubtful Saturday

Dallas Mavericks guard Kyrie Irving (heel) has been listed as doubtful for Saturday's game against the Warriors. Thursday's 118-110 loss to Minnesota marked the 11th consecutive game Irving has missed, and his return on Saturday appears unlikely, but the fact that Irving is now carrying a doubtful tag is a sign that he could be […]

Luka Doncic Questionable For Saturday

Dallas Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic (quadriceps) is considered questionable for Saturday's juicy matchup against Golden State. Doncic missed the previous game against Minnesota as Dallas completed a back-to-back. He should be available again, but we won't know for sure until he's officially declared available for the game. Jaden Hardy had a decent 17-point outing […]

Kyle Lowry Listed As Questionable Saturday

Miami Heat point guard Kyle Lowry (soreness) has been tagged questionable for Saturday's encounter with Utah. He could be out for a second consecutive game after already missing Thursday's matchup with Golden State due to general soreness. R.J. Hampton was lifted into the starting unit as Lowry's replacement. He didn't do a lot in 25 […]

Anfernee Simons Will Miss Another Game

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (illness) won't play in Friday's rematch with the Spurs. He'll now be sidelined for a second-straight game because of a non-COVID-related illness, so his next chance to return will be on Monday versus the Phoenix Suns. With Shaedon Sharpe (adductor) also out, Scoot Henderson and Malcolm Brogdon should handle […]

Jaylen Brown, Jrue Holiday Both Questionable On Friday

Boston Celtics guards Jaylen Brown (back) and Jrue Holiday (elbow) have both been listed as questionable for their Friday night game against the Toronto Raptors. The starting backcourt along with Jayson Tatum (ankle) and Kristaps Porzingis (calf) have all been listed as questionable or doubtful. After making sure they weren't the team to end the […]

Donovan Mitchell Remains Questionable With Illness

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (illness) hasn't played since December 18 due to a non-COVID illness and he's officially listed as questionable for their game on Friday. The star guard has now seen two small stretches of missed games due to either injury or illness, but luckily the team has gone 3-1 with him out. […]

Gary Harris Tagged As Questionable On Friday

Orlando Magic guard Gary Harris (calf) has received a questionable tag ahead of their Friday night matchup against the New York Knicks. The 29-year-old was forced to sit out on Wednesday against the Philadelphia 76ers with the same calf strain, so his status will be something to monitor as the team goes through shootaround. His […]

Ja Morant Unavailable On Thursday

Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant (illness) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday's game against the Denver Nuggets. Morant was questionable coming into this game, but will ultimately sit out due to an illness. The expectation is that Marcus Smart will move over to the point guard spot, while Desmond Bane shifts to shooting guard. […]

Reggie Jackson Available On Thursday

Denver Nuggets guard Reggie Jackson is available ahead of Thursday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. The veteran guard will suit up after being able to get through his pregame routine. There was some uncertainty that Jackson would miss this game due to a skin lesion. Despite that, Jackson has been cleared to play and should […]

Anfernee Simons Won't Play On Thursday

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (illness) has been ruled out ahead of Thursday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. The young guard was a late addition to the injury report due to an illness. In his absence, Scoot Henderson will move into the starting five for Thursday's game. He has been coming off the […]

Killian Hayes Probable Thursday

Detroit Pistons guard Killian Hayes (illness) is regarded as probable for Thursday's matchup against Boston. Hayes has been sidelined for four games, and he's actually had the probable tag a couple of times during his absence, so it might not mean he's on track to return. Jaden Ivey has made four consecutive starts with Hayes […]

Trae Young Questionable Tuesday

Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young (shoulder) is questionable for Tuesday's action against Chicago. The Hawks star has played some incredible basketball lately but could be out of the lineup for the third time this season due to a shoulder sprain.

Jalen Suggs In Danger Of Missing Another Game

Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs (wrist) could be out for a third consecutive game on Tuesday versus Washington, as the team has listed him as questionable. The 22-year-old is nursing a left wrist sprain. Suggs has had a good campaign with 12.4 points, 3.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists, and 1.6 steals. Only four players in the […]

Killian Hayes Probable For Tuesday

Detroit Pistons guard Killian Hayes (illness) is probable for Tuesday's matchup against the Nets. The young Frenchman has missed three games with an illness. Hayes was set to return to the lineup on Saturday versus Brooklyn, but he was a late scratch. As a backcourt starter alongside Cade Cunningham, Hayes has averaged 9.1 points, 3.1 […]

Kyle Lowry Not On The Injury Report

Miami Heat guard Kyle Lowry (leg) isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Monday's Christmas showdown with the Philadelphia 76ers. Lowry briefly exited Friday's meeting versus the Atlanta Hawks with a lower leg injury. However, he managed to return, logging 22 minutes on the night. At any rate, the 27-year-old hasn't been a viable […]

Malik Monk Uncertain For Saturday

Sacramento Kings guard Malik Monk (foot) is listed as questionable ahead of Saturday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Monk has been dealing with right foot irritation for a few days now. His absence would likely mean that Chris Duarte would see more involvement in the rotation. Duarte has not been consistent this season and wouldn't […]
