Cameron Payne Ruled Out Thursday
Phoenix Suns point guard Cameron Payne (ankle) will sit Thursday against the Los Angeles Clippers. Payne twisted his ankle in their last game on Tuesday and will likely need a few days to heal. Josh Okogie and Damion Lee are in line to get extra minutes off the bench while veteran point guard Chris Paul […]
Jrue Holiday Will Still Be Sidelined On Thursday
Milwaukee Bucks guard Jrue Holiday (illness) is still suffering from a non-COVID illness that will keep him out of Thursday's contest against the Memphis Grizzlies. This will be his second game missed due to illness. Khris Middleton will see an increase in usage in the starting lineup while Jevon Carter should move into the open […]
Alex Caruso Available Against The Knicks
Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (back) is available for Wednesday's meeting with the Knicks. The 28-year-old played only six minutes in Sunday's game against the Mavericks and didn't suit up on Monday in Atlanta. Caruso has averaged only 5.2 points and 3.8 assists in 25.3 minutes in 2022-23. However, he's also averaged 1.5 steals, so […]
LaMelo Ball To Return On Wednesday Evening
Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball (ankle) will return on Wednesday versus Detroit. The 21-year-old has appeared in only three games this season. However, he played well in those contests, averaging 19.3 points, 7.0 assists, and 1.0 steals. It's unknown if Ball will see a full workload. But even if he doesn't, he has a fantastic […]
Trae Young Good To Go On Wednesday
Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (back) will play on Wednesday versus Orlando. The 24-year-old didn't suit up on Monday in Memphis, opening the door for Trent Forrest to enter the starting lineup. Young shouldn't have any restrictions, so he needs to be in every fantasy lineup against a Magic team that has struggled this season.
Jalen Brunson A Game-Time Call
New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson (foot) is warming up ahead of Wednesday's meeting with Chicago. Brunson suffered a right foot contusion during Sunday's win over Sacramento, although he still managed to log 44 minutes. Nonetheless, he remains questionable, so fantasy managers should wait on the official word before plugging him into the lineup. However, […]
Stephen Curry Available Versus Indianapolis
Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (knee) is available on Wednesday against the Pacers. The sharpshooter made an appearance on the injury report due to right knee soreness and was listed as questionable. However, he's good to go. Considering he played 27 minutes versus the Bucks on Tuesday, there's a chance Curry may not see […]
Devin Booker Able To Shoot During Wednesday’s Practice
Phoenix Suns point/shooting guard Devin Booker (hamstring) got shots up at Wednesday's practice, a step in the right direction after a two-game absence due to a left hamstring ailment. With Deandre Ayton (ankle) and Cameron Payne (foot) going down during Tuesday's contest, a potential Booker return ahead of Thursday's matchup with the Clippers would give […]
Deandre Ayton, Cameron Payne Miss Wednesday’s Practice
Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton (ankle) and point guard Cameron Payne (foot) were both unable to suit up for Wednesday's practice session after having exited Tuesday's contest against Houston early. With Devin Booker (hamstring) already sidelined, Phoenix is facing widespread absences from key contributors ahead of Thursday's meeting with the Clippers. Ayton has produced his […]
Stephen Curry Earns Questionable Tag For Wednesday
Golden State Warriors point guard Stephen Curry (knee) has been deemed questionable to suit up for Wednesday's contest vs. Indiana due to a sore right knee. Curry tied his season low with just 27 minutes played Tuesday, and he has previously sat out two prior instances of the second leg of a back-to-back this season. […]
Monte Morris Back On Wednesday
Washington Wizards point guard Monte Morris (groin) will be back in action Wednesday against Denver. He is able to make a relatively quick return after sitting out only two games with a left groin strain. Jordan Goodwin started in his absence, and he did a good job, but the 24-year-old will likely now struggle to […]
D'Angelo Russell Questionable For Wednesday
Minnesota Timberwolves point guard D'Angelo Russell (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's matchup against the Clippers. He hurt his left knee in Monday's loss to Portland and might now be forced to sit out his first game of the season. Russell has been on a nice run lately, averaging 26.4 points per game across his last […]
John Wall Rested On Wednesday
Los Angeles Clippers point guard John Wall (knee) won't take the court Wednesday against Minnesota. It's the start of a back-to-back set and the team will keep the injury-prone veteran out of action with left knee injury management. He should be back for Thursday's matchup against Phoenix. Wall's absence will boost the fantasy value of […]
LaMelo Ball Upgraded To Questionable
Charlotte Hornets point guard LaMelo Ball (ankle) has been upgraded to questionable for Wednesday's matchup against Detroit, and it appears that he is on track to play. A source has told ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski that Ball is "hopeful" of returning to action Wednesday. The talented playmaker has sat out the last 11 games with a […]
James Harden Dishes Out 15 Assists On Tuesday
Philadelphia 76ers guard James Harden put his playmaking ability on full display on Tuesday night. The veteran star finished the 20-point blowout win with 21 points, 15 assists, seven rebounds, and five steals on 7-for-13 shooting and 4-for-7 from deep. His six turnovers weren't a great part of the game, but when he provides a […]
Jalen Brunson Questionable Against Chicago
New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson (foot) is questionable against the Chicago Bulls. The former Maverick sustained a right foot contusion during Sunday's victory over the Sacramento Kings, although he still managed to log 44 minutes of work. Nonetheless, if Brunson can't make it out there on Wednesday, Miles McBride or Immanuel Quickley may enter […]
Alex Caruso Probable On Wednesday Night
Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (back) is listed as probable for Wednesday's meeting with the New York Knicks. Caruso exited Sunday's game against Dallas after only six minutes of work while missing Monday's contest in Atlanta. That said, the 28-year-old has averaged only 5.2 points and 3.8 assists in 25.3 minutes this season, so he […]
Dennis Smith Jr. Sidelined Again On Wednesday
Charlotte Hornets guard Dennis Smith Jr. (ankle) won't play against the Pistons on Wednesday. Neither will LaMelo Ball (ankle), which isn't surprising considering he's only played three games during the 2022-23 campaign. That said, Terry Rozier should handle most of the ball handling duties while remaining a primary scoring option. Of course, Kelly Oubre Jr., […]
LaMelo Ball Won't Suit Up Versus Detroit
Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball (ankle) is out on Wednesday against Detroit. No surprise here, as the 21-year-old has played three games this season because of a sprained ankle. With Dennis Smith Jr. (ankle) out as well, Terry Rozier should continue to run the point and receive a usage bump while remaining a primary scoring […]
Trae Young Could Miss Another Game On Wednesday
Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (back) is questionable against the Orlando Magic. The sharpshooter didn't play in Monday's loss to Memphis because of lower back tightness, opening the door for Trent Forrest to enter the starting lineup. Forrest, who finished with four points, four assists, two steals, and shot a rough 2-for-9 from the field, […]
Cameron Payne Injured In Loss To Houston
Phoenix Suns guard Cameron Payne (foot) exited Tuesday's loss to Houston with a right foot injury. He didn't return. While Chris Paul was sidelined with a heel issue, Payne took over and averaged 15.1 points and 7.3 assists while shooting 39.5% from deep in 14 starts. Although Paul has since returned, Payne still plays a […]
Jrue Holiday Out With Illness Tuesday
Milwaukee Bucks guard Jrue Holiday (illness) will sit Tuesday against the Golden State Warriors. Holiday was questionable with a non-COVID illness, but is unable to suit up in a showdown against the reigning champs. Jevon Carter figures to enter the starting lineup sans Holiday, but Khris Middleton (ankle) should see higher usage assuming he is […]
Collin Sexton Won't Suit Up Against Pelicans
Utah Jazz guard Collin Sexton (hamstring) will remain sidelined against the New Orleans Pelicans on Tuesday night. The 23-year-old has missed his last two games due to a hamstring strain and it looks like he'll at least be missing one more. Utah has been very thin recently as their injury report has grown. Mike Conley […]
Jrue Holiday Uncertain To Play Against Warriors
Milwaukee Bucks guard Jrue Holiday (illness) is officially listed as questionable against the Golden State Warriors on Tuesday. He's suffering from a non-COVID illness which seems to be something that's going around the league lately. The last game Holiday missed was earlier in December and Jevon Carter was the one to take his place in […]
De'Anthony Melton Questionable On Tuesday
Philadelphia 76ers guard De'Anthony Melton (back) has been given the questionable tag ahead of their game against the Sacramento Kings on Tuesday night. The 24-year-old was able to play around 28 minutes in their last contest against the Charlotte Hornets on Sunday. This could just be a precautionary injury report, but popping up as questionable […]
Damian Lillard Hits 11 Three-Point Bombs Versus Minnesota
Portland Trail Blazers point guard Damian Lillard tied his own franchise record with 11 made three-pointers in Monday's 133-112 victory over the Timberwolves. He did it with 17 attempts, and Lillard was able to hit 13-for-21 overall from the field during a 38-point performance. Of course, sitting behind the three-point line limited his work in […]
Luka Doncic Returns In Style
Dallas Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic was back at it Monday versus OKC and led his side to a 121-114 victory with a big 38-point effort. He was back in action after sitting out one game and Doncic returned with a near triple-double as his line included 11 rebounds and eight assists. In 37 minutes […]
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Matches Career High With 42 Points
Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander repeated his scoring record on Monday, piling up 42 points on 14-for-23 shooting in a 121-114 loss to Dallas. He was 13-for-13 at the line and nailed one shot from deep with two attempts. In 38 minutes on the court, Gilgeous-Alexander was also able to collect two assists, three […]
De'Aaron Fox Questionable For Tuesday's Game
Sacramento Kings guard De'Aaron Fox (foot) is questionable for Tuesday's meeting with Philadelphia. The 24-year-old missed the last two games because of a sore right foot, allowing Davion Mitchell to take his spot in the lineup. Mitchell has averaged eight points and four assists in three starts this season. However, with numbers like that, fantasy […]
Trae Young Officially Out For Monday
Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (back) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. This shouldn't come as a surprise considering Young as listed as questionable coming into this game. However, it's bad timing with Dejounte Murray and Bogdan Bogdanovic also on the sideline. That being said, Aaron Holiday and Trent Forrest […]
