Trae Young Listed As Probable On Friday

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (Achilles) seems likely to suit up on Friday against the Milwaukee Bucks after the team listed him as probable. He'll be called upon for even more scoring to take down the Bucks if none of their new trade assets are ready in time. Young posted a big-time double-double in their […]

Cade Cunningham May Miss Friday's Game Against 76ers

Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham (ankle) is listed as questionable for the contest against the Philadelphia 76ers on Friday due to an ankle sprain. The star point guard hasn't been forced to miss a game since late November, so there's a chance the team could use this as a rest day. If that's the case, […]

LaMelo Ball Tagged As Questionable Against Spurs

Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball (ankle) resumed on-court activities earlier in the week and has since been listed as questionable for Friday's matchup with the San Antonio Spurs. Ball has missed the last five games with a left ankle sprain. If he returns on Friday, he'll be alongside a different-looking supporting cast after the trade […]

Donovan Mitchell Considered Probable Friday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (shoulder) has been listed as probable for Friday's matchup with the Washington Wizards. He received a night off to deal with a shoulder contusion on Wednesday and seems ready to go against a lowly Wizards team that will roll out a decimated crew until all of their trades go through. […]

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (knee) is ruled out for Thursday's game against the visiting Magic. The veteran logged 36 minutes in Wednesday's 144-119 win over the New Orleans Pelicans. However, he popped up on the injury report on Thursday because of left knee inflammation. With Russell Westbrook (hamstring) also out, Julian Strawther and Jalen […]

Jalen Suggs Won't Play Versus Denver

Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs (quadriceps) isn't available for Thursday's meeting with Denver. He missed time because of a back injury but returned for the January 25 matchup with the Detroit Pistons. However, the 23-year-old suffered a quad contusion in that contest and will miss his sixth-straight game. Cole Anthony, who had 14 points, three […]

Ben Simmons Discussing Buyout With Nets

Brooklyn Nets guard Ben Simmons stayed on the team through the trade deadline, but that doesn't mean he's going to finish the season with the organization. The two sides are reportedly working on a contract buyout. Simmons is in the final year of a five-year deal that he originally signed with the Philadelphia 76ers. A […]

 Jrue Holiday Sidelined On Thursday

Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site reports that Boston Celtics guard Jrue Holiday (shoulder) won't play against the Dallas Mavericks on Thursday. Holiday's absence is due to a right shoulder impingement he has been dealing with. The 34-year-old's next chance to return to the floor is on Friday against the New York Knicks. While Holiday is out […]

Jamal Murray Questionable On Thursday

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (knee) is listed as questionable for Thursday's matchup with the Orlando Magic. A rest day could be in store for Murray as the Nuggets are in the second half of a back-to-back set on Thursday. The 27-year-old played 36 minutes on Wednesday against New Orleans, posting 10 points, six assists, and two […]

Bogdan Bogdanovic Traded To Clippers

The Los Angeles Clippers added guard Bogdan Bogdanovic and three second-round picks in a trade with the Atlanta Hawks in exchange for Terance Mann and Bones Hyland. Bogdanovic has missed the last six games due to a personal matter and only played a total of 24 games all season. When available, he averaged 10.0 points, […]

Vasilije Micic Traded To Phoenix

The Phoenix Suns added guard Vasilije Micic along with Cody Martin and a 2026 second-round pick from the Hornets in exchange for Jusuf Nurkic and a 2026 first-round pick. Micic had been starting for the Hornets in place of LaMelo Ball (ankle), but now he'll join a crowded backcourt situation in Phoenix. While Ball is […]

Dennis Schroder Flipped To The Pistons

The Detroit Pistons acquired guard Dennis Schroder as part of the complicated Jimmy Butler trade that landed Butler in Golden State and Schroder in the Motor City with a stop in Utah, although he never played for the Jazz. Schroder started the season with the Nets and played 23 games, averaging 18.4 points and 6.6 […]

Kevin Porter Jr. Traded To Bucks

The Milwaukee Bucks acquired guard Kevin Porter Jr. from the Clippers to bolster their backcourt before Thursday's NBA Trade Deadline. Milwaukee will send forward MarJon Beauchamp to the Clippers in exchange. Porter has been a solid backup point guard for the Clippers this season after sitting out all of 2023-24. He played 45 of the […]

Marcus Smart Traded To The Wizards

The Washington Wizards acquired guard Marcus Smart along with a 2025 first-round pick from the Grizzlies in a multi-team trade that sends two second-round picks to Memphis. Memphis is looking for roster flexibility with the move, and Smart will now join the Wizards backcourt that could definitely use some of his signature defensive intensity. Smart […]

FanDuel NBA DFS Picks for Today (Thursday 2/6/25): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

Welcome back, RotoBallers! Today is the hardest DFS day of the year, and I'm here to hopefully make that easier. With the looming trade deadline, we have quite a few guys to watch. Luckily, it's a smaller six-game slate, so there are fewer teams we have to watch the news for. Mark Williams was just […]

Jalen Suggs Remains Out On Wednesday

Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs (quadriceps) won't play on Wednesday versus Sacramento. The 23-year-old missed 10 games because of a back injury before returning for the January 25 matchup with the Pistons. Unfortunately, he sustained a quad contusion and will now miss his fifth-straight game on Wednesday night. As a result, Cole Anthony, coming off […]

Dennis Schroder Traded To Jazz

The Utah Jazz have acquired guard Dennis Schroder in a five-team trade on Wednesday. It looked like Schroder was going to end up with the Miami Heat, but instead he'll go to Utah. Schroder has moved around quite a bit this season, but this is a less than ideal landing spot for him. The Jazz […]

Lonzo Ball Signs Two-Year Extension

Chicago Bulls guard Lonzo Ball has signed a new deal with the organization on Wednesday. Ball has agreed on a two-year, $20 million extension with the team. It seemed increasingly likely that Ball was going to be moved ahead of the trade deadline. However, the Bulls have decided to keep the 27-year-old guard who has […]

Jose Alvarado Unavailable On Wednesday

New Orleans Pelicans guard Jose Alvarado (illness) has been ruled out ahead of Wednesday's game against the Denver Nuggets. The Pelicans have been leaning more on Alvarado with Dejounte Murray (Achilles) done for the season. His absence means that the Pelicans will likely need to use a committee approach at the guard spot. Jordan Hawkins, […]

Marcus Smart Will Play On Wednesday

Memphis Grizzlies guard Marcus Smart (finger) will play on Wednesday versus Toronto. The veteran hasn't been on the court since December 23, so he'll likely operate under a minutes restriction. But with Desmond Bane (ankle) ruled out, Smart could see enough minutes to justify his presence in fantasy lineups against one of the worst teams […]

Damian Lillard Will Play Versus The Hornets

Milwaukee Bucks guard Damian Lillard (groin) will play against Charlotte. The former Trail Blazer missed Monday's loss to the Thunder because of a groin injury. He was listed as questionable for this contest as of Tuesday night. However, Lillard was upgraded to probable on Wednesday afternoon. The Bucks will also have Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee), Brook […]

Lonzo Ball Unavailable Against Minnesota On Wednesday

Chicago Bulls guard Lonzo Ball (knee) will not play against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Wednesday. Ball will be missing in action due to injury management of his left knee. The 27-year-old has a lengthy history playing in just 30 games this season, so keeping him out of the second leg of back-to-back sets is precautionary. While Ball […]

Ben Simmons Off The Injury Report For Wednesday

Brooklyn Nets guard Ben Simmons (back, injury management) is off the injury report ahead of Wednesday's matchup with the Wizards. The former 76er didn't suit up for Tuesday's win over the Houston Rockets to rest. As a result, D'Angelo Russell and Reece Beekman handled most of the duties at the one spot. While Russell should […]

Vince Williams Jr. Tagged As Questionable For Wednesday

Memphis Grizzlies guard Vince Williams Jr. (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's meeting with the Toronto Raptors. The 24-year-old Williams Jr. has been sidelined since the middle of November as he's been dealing with a Grade 3 right ankle sprain. Williams Jr. has played in three games this season and has missed 47 games due to […]

Vasilije Micic Tagged As Questionable On Wednesday

Charlotte Hornets guard Vasilije Micic (ankle) has received a questionable tag for Wednesday's matchup against the Milwaukee Bucks. Micic was last seen in action last night against the Washington Wizards, where he posted 13 points, five assists and three rebounds across 28 minutes. If he's unable to suit up, KJ Simpson could see a bump […]

LaMelo Ball Resumes On-Court Activity

Charlotte Hornets point guard LaMelo Ball (ankle) will remain out on Wednesday against the Milwaukee Bucks but is making progress. The team has announced that Ball has returned to on-court activity. It's an encouraging update, although it remains unclear when Ball will be back in game shape. With Vasilije Micic (ankle) now also battling an […]
