D'Angelo Russell Upgraded To Probable For Tuesday

It's doubtful, but if the 28-year-old is sidelined, Keon Johnson and Jalen Wilson […]

Cole Anthony Listed As Questionable Versus Knicks

Orlando Magic guard Cole Anthony (illness) is questionable for Tuesday's contest against the Toronto Raptors. Jonathan Isaac (illness) and Anthony were late additions to the injury report.

Kris Dunn Cleared To Face Chicago

Los Angeles Clippers guard Kris Dunn (knee) will play against the Bulls on Monday night. The veteran appeared on the injury report because of left knee soreness. But it won't be enough to force him to miss his first game of the 2024-25 campaign. Dunn hasn't been the most consistent fantasy option this season, averaging […]

James Harden Will Play On Monday Night

Los Angeles Clippers guard James Harden (groin) will play on Monday night versus the Bulls. The multi-time All-Star was under the weather for Sunday's win over the Los Angeles Lakers.

Collin Sexton Resting On Monday Night

Utah Jazz guard Collin Sexton (rest) won't suit up for Monday's rematch with the Pelicans. The 26-year-old has had issues staying on the floor at times throughout his career.

Anfernee Simons Tagged As Questionable For Tuesday

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (elbow) is listed as questionable ahead of Tuesday's game against the Miami Heat. This isn't too shocking considering Simons sat out of Sunday's contest due to this elbow issue. Fantasy managers shouldn't be too worried as this seems like a day-to-day issue. If he's out again, Scoot Henderson should […]

Jamal Murray Listed As Probable For Tuesday

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (calf) is listed as probable ahead of Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He was on the injury report this weekend due to a knee issue, but now he appears to have picked up a calf injury. The fact Murray is listed as probable means that he'll likely be able […]

Gary Harris Could Return On Tuesday

Orlando Magic guard Gary Harris (hamstring) is listed as questionable ahead of Tuesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. Harris appears to be on the verge of returning after missing the last nine games due to left hamstring strain.
