However, fantasy managers shouldn't be surprised if Lowry isn't out […]

Gabe Vincent Expected To Play In Game 4

Miami Heat guard Gabe Vincent (toe) is expected to be in the lineup during Sunday's playoff battle with the Atlanta Hawks. The 25-year-old is dealing with a right great toe contusion, although he's continued to play through the ailment, so his name listed on the league's official injury report should be considered a formality at […]

Frank Ntilikina Ruled Out For Game 4

Dallas Mavericks guard Frank Ntilikina (illness) has been ruled out for Game 4 against the Utah Jazz on Saturday. Ntilikina hasn't suited up since April 8 due to a non-COVID related illness.

Fred Vanvleet Won't Return On Saturday

Toronto Raptors guard Fred VanVleet (hip) has been ruled out for the rest of Saturday's Game 4 matchup against the Philadelphia 76ers. He suffered a left hip strain before halftime and won't return to this game. The Raptors are already down 3-0 in this series, so they'll look to stay alive without Vanvleet. He finished […]

Luka Doncic Will Play In Game 4

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (calf) will be available for Saturday's Game 4 matchup against the Utah Jazz. The All-Star guard was expected to play here after missing the first three games of this series. Luckily, Jalen Brunson has picked up the slack and helped the Mavs take a 2-1 series lead. It's uncertain if […]

Fred VanVleet Heads Back To The Locker Room In Game 4

Toronto Raptors guard Fred VanVleet exited Saturday's postseason matchup against the 76ers. VanVleet, who has been bothered by a knee injury, was observed limping and in obvious pain before tearing his jersey in frustration. He's back in the locker room, and it wouldn't be a surprise if he doesn't return to Game 4. As a […]

Luka Doncic Upgraded Ahead Of Game 4

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (calf) is considered probable ahead of the Game 4 playoff outing against the Jazz. The 23-year-old hasn't been available this postseason because of a left calf strain, although it remains possible he won't receive his usual workload.

According to Mavericks head coach Jason Kidd, Doncic went through a full practice on Friday and he is lined up […]

Frank Ntilikina Questionable For Game 4

Dallas Mavericks guard Frank Ntilikina (illness) is questionable ahead of the Game 4 postseason outing versus Utah. The 23-year-old is recovering from a tonsillectomy and hasn't played in a few weeks. However, even if Ntilikina is available and Luka Doncic (calf) isn't, the 2017 No. 8 overall pick shouldn't be an attractive option for DFS […]

Ben Simmons To Play In Game 4, Barring A Setback

Brooklyn Nets guard Ben Simmons will suit up for Game 4 of the postseason series against the Celtics on Monday evening, barring a setback. Simmons hasn't played all season and was dealt by Philadelphia for James Harden ahead of the trade deadline. It isn't known if the former LSU Tiger has improved on the offensive […]

George Hill Out For Game 3

Milwaukee Bucks guard George Hill (abdomen) is out on Friday night. The veteran hasn't played at all during the postseason series with the Bulls, which is unfortunate considering Milwaukee will be without Khris Middleton for the foreseeable future.

Stephen Curry To Get More Minutes In Game 3

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry will get more minutes during the Game 3 playoff meeting against the Nuggets.

Curry will likely come off the bench once again on Thursday night, although […]

Frank Ntilikina Out On Thursday Night

Dallas Mavericks guard Frank Ntilikina (illness) won't play on Thursday during the Game 3 matchup versus Utah.

Ben Simmons Playing In Game 4 A "Realistic Target"

Brooklyn Nets guard Ben Simmons (back) could be nearing a return, with Game 4 being a realistic target for the former 76er to make his debut. Brooklyn could certainly use him out there, primarily with the Celtics currently owning a two-game lead in the series. Nonetheless, if Simmons makes it back on Monday night, he […]

Luka Doncic Ruled Out For Game 3

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (calf) won't play on Thursday night against Utah. The 23-year-old has already missed the first two games of the series because of a left calf strain.

Ja Morant Records Double-Double In Game 2 Victory

Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant logged a 23-point, 10-assist double-double Tuesday en route to a convincing Game 2 win over Minnesota.

Chris Paul Scuffles From Field Amidst 14-Assist Outing

Phoenix Suns point guard Chris Paul logged his second consecutive double-double to begin the 2022 postseason, but this performance came with the caveat of shooting just 5-for-16 overall.

George Hill Won't Play In Game 2

Milwaukee Bucks guard George Hill (abdominal) has been ruled out for Wednesday's Game 2 matchup against the Chicago Bulls. The veteran guard will miss his third straight game due to an abdominal issue. His absence won't have a huge impact on the Bucks rotation. Jevon Carter saw 10 minutes in Game 1, so he'll probably […]

Mavs Optimistic Luka Doncic Will Return For Game 3

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (calf) has yet to play during the postseason series against the Utah Jazz. He's currently sidelined with a strained left calf. Yet, the team remains hopeful he will return for Game 3. For now, fantasy managers should officially consider Doncic as day-to-day. However, if he can't suit up on Thursday […]

Ben Simmons Cleared For Contact, Plays 4-On-4

Brooklyn Nets guard Ben Simmons (back) has been cleared for contact and has been participating in 4-on-4 practice sessions.

The 25-year-old, who was acquired from […]

Tyrese Maxey Nearly Posts Triple-Double

Philadelphia 76ers guard Tyrese Maxey nearly put together a career performance versus the Toronto Raptors on Monday.

Maxey knocked down 8-of-11 shots and […]

Jalen Brunson Puts Together Magical Performance

Dallas Mavericks guard Jalen Brunson was unreal during Monday's Game 2 matchup against the Utah Jazz.

The Mavericks were without Luka Doncic (calf) once […]

Gabe Vincent Probable For Tuesday

Miami Heat guard Gabe Vincent (toe) is listed as probable for Tuesday's Game 2 matchup against the Atlanta Hawks. He has been dealing with a toe issue for quite awhile now.
