Tyrese Maxey Faces Minutes Limit In Return Friday

Philadelphia 76ers point guard Tyrese Maxey (foot) will suit up for the first time since Nov. 18 on Friday against New Orleans, but fantasy managers shouldn't anticipate a full workload.

Fred VanVleet Picks Up Questionable Designation Friday

Toronto Raptors point guard Fred VanVleet (back) has been deemed questionable to play in Friday's game vs. the Suns due to a stiff lower back.

Killian Hayes Gets Suspended Three Games

Detroit Pistons guard Killian Hayes has been suspended three games for his involvement in Wednesday's altercation with the Orlando Magic.

Regardless, Alec Burks basically becomes a must-add player with Hayes unavailable for the next three games. […]

Fred VanVleet Questionable For Thursday

Toronto Raptors point guard Fred VanVleet (back) is questionable for Thursday's matchup against the Grizzlies.
