Atlanta Hawks guard Kris Dunn (knee, ankle) is out on Thursday evening against the Toronto Raptors.

While there is a chance that Dunn could return before the end of the month, fantasy managers that still have him on […]

Delon Wright Questionable Against Charlotte

Detroit Pistons guard Delon Wright (groin) is questionable for Thursday's meeting with the Hornets. The 28-year-old missed his previous seven contests while dealing with a groin strain, an ailment that opened the door for Dennis Smith Jr. to receive some meaningful minutes. Wright is averaging 10.7 points, 4.9 assists, and 4.6 boards during the 2021 […]

Devonte’ Graham Likely To Play On Thursday

Charlotte Hornets guard Devonte' Graham (knee) will likely be available on Thursday night against Detroit. The 26-year-old missed his previous seven games before the All-Star break, which wasn't good news considering he also missed three contests at the beginning of February due to a groin issue. However, Graham appears to be good to go and […]

Derrick Rose Won't Suit Up On Thursday

New York Knicks guard Derrick Rose has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. This marks the third game in a row that Rose has missed due to what the team is calling medical protocols. Elfrid Payton has seen heavy playing time while Rose is out, so that should continue on Thursday. […]

Derrick White, Rudy Gay Should Play Wednesday

San Antonio Spurs guard Derrick White and forward Rudy Gay are expected to suit up for Wednesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. It sounds like both players have been cleared from quarantine and are active for this contest. However, it wouldn't be shocking to see the Spurs have them somewhat limited on Wednesday. White is […]

Ben Simmons, Joel Embiid Forced To Quarantine

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid and guard Ben Simmons will both be forced to quarantine after being exposed to COVID-19 before Sunday's All-Star Game.

Ben Simmons Could Sit On Thursday

Philadelphia 76ers guard Ben Simmons (health and safety protocols) is in danger of missing Thursday night's matchup against the Bulls.

Ja Morant Posts Another 30-Point Game

Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant made it back-to-back 30-point games for himself when he had 35 points on 11-for-25 shooting in Thursday's narrow loss to Milwaukee.

Derrick Rose Won't Play, Elfrid Payton Available Against Pistons

New York Knicks guard Derrick Rose (health and safety protocols) won't suit up on Thursday against the Pistons. Rose missed Tuesday's game because of an inconclusive COVID-19 test, though he reportedly has since tested negative. Some teams are opting to hold out players who were in the protocols for conditioning reasons, so perhaps that's the […]

Stephen Curry, Draymond Green Out On Thursday

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (rest) and forward Draymond Green (ankle) have been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Phoenix Suns. Curry will sit this one out with the All-Star break this weekend. Kent Bazemore, Brad Wanamaker and Mychal Mulder will all see increased roles on Thursday. However, Andrew Wiggins is the best […]

Damian Lillard Pushes Blazers Past Warriors

Portland Trail Blazers point guard Damian Lillard had 22 points and nailed a couple of key treys late in the game, which led to a 108-106 win over the Warriors on Wednesday. He was horrible from deep all night but was there when the team needed him the most. Lillard ended up with a 3-for-10 […]

Elfrid Payton Doubtful For Thursday

New York Knicks guard Elfrid Payton (hamstring) is listed as doubtful for Thursday's game against the Detroit Pistons.

Derrick Rose seems to be always tagged as questionable, so Frank Ntilikina could be asked […]

Luka Doncic Ruled Out On Wednesday

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (back) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. This doesn't appear to be a significant injury, but the Mavs are going to be cautious heading into the All-Star break.

New York Knicks guard Derrick Rose could return to the lineup for Thursday's game against the Pistons.

Luka Doncic Downgraded To Doubtful Against Thunder

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (back) has been downgraded to doubtful for Wednesday's contest with the Thunder.
