Mike Conley Will Play Against Clippers On Minutes Restriction
Utah Jazz guard Mike Conley (hamstring) will play on Friday against the Clippers. Conley missed the last six games as he dealt with a sore hamstring, though he'll be back in the lineup for a rematch with the Clippers, who will be at full strength. Conley will be on a minutes restriction, per head coach […]
Kyle Lowry Ruled Out Against Minnesota
Toronto Raptors guard Kyle Lowry (thumb) will not play Friday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Lowry came down to a game-time decision and head coach Nick Nurse is labeling him as "day-to-day". Nurse even said Lowry could be listed as probable next game after they see him go through his game-day workout. With Lowry out, Fred […]
D.J. Augustin Starting Over Bryn Forbes Friday
Milwaukee Bucks guard D.J. Augustin will start Friday night against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Bucks are on a five-game losing streak and need to make some changes while Jrue Holiday (health and safety protocols) is still out. Augustin will push Bryn Forbes to the bench who was serviceable as a three-pointer streamer. Augustin could […]
Dillon Brooks Out Against Pistons
Memphis Grizzlies guard Dillon Brooks (thigh) will not play Friday against the Detroit Pistons. Brooks is dealing with some thigh soreness and does not sound like he will be out for long. Regardless, the Grizzlies are getting De'Anthony Melton (shoulder) and Desmond Bane (personal) back so there are a lot of options for Memphis to […]
Ben Simmons Won't Play On Friday
Philadelphia 76ers guard Ben Simmons (illness) is officially out on Friday against the Bulls. Updating a previous report, Simmons was listed as probable, though that seemed like a very optimistic outlook given that he couldn't participate in the team's shootaround. Philadelphia will be without his services for the second straight game as he continues to […]
De'Anthony Melton Expected To Play Friday
Memphis Grizzlies guard De'Anthony Melton (shoulder) is expected to play Friday against the Detroit Pistons. Melton has missed six straight games with a shoulder strain, but head coach Taylor Jenkins "expects Melton to be available to play" on Friday. That does not exactly confirm his return, but Melton should be in the lineup barring any […]
Devonte' Graham Now Doubtful For Saturday
As an update to a previous report, Charlotte Hornets guard Devonte' Graham (knee) is now doubtful to play Saturday against the Golden State Warriors. Graham was questionable and had little hope to play, but this almost seals the deal of Graham missing the game. Malik Monk would be a good streamer for points and threes […]
Ben Simmons Probable, Shake Milton To Miss Another Game
Philadelphia 76ers guard Ben Simmons (illness) is probable to play on Friday while guard Shake Milton (ankle) is out. Simmons is technically listed as probable- though head coach Doc Rivers said that his status is still up in the air after he was unable to take part in the team's shootaround. While Milton is out […]
Devonte' Graham Listed As Questionable Saturday
Charlotte Hornets guard Devonte' Graham (knee) is questionable to play Saturday against the Golden State Warriors. Graham left last Saturday's game with the knee injury, but had games postponed so did not actually miss any playing time. However, Graham is in danger of missing this Saturday and would likely cede more minutes to starters Terry […]
Kyle Lowry Upgraded To Questionable For Friday
Toronto Raptors guard Kyle Lowry (thumb) has been upgraded to questionable for Friday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. This is quite surprising considering head coach Nick Nurse previously ruled out Lowry for this game. It sounds like there's a chance he suits up, but the Raptors should be able to easily win without Lowry. Fred […]
James Harden Has Double-Double In Win Over Lakers
Brooklyn Nets guard James Harden had a very efficient outing in Thursday's marquee matchup against the Lakers, notching a 23-point, 11-assist double-double while shooting 7-for-15 from the field and 6-for-7 at the line with only one turnover in 38 minutes. He went 3-for-7 from deep and added five rebounds, two steals, and one block. Harden […]
Goran Dragic Out Again On Thursday
Miami Heat guard Goran Dragic (ankle) is out for Thursday's matchup against the Kings. The veteran didn't travel with the team for its West Coast road trip, so his absence was expected all along. Without Dragic in the lineup, the team will continue to roll with Kendrick Nunn at the one, opening the door for […]
Mike Conley Remains Questionable
Utah Jazz guard Mike Conley (hamstring) is questionable for Friday night’s matchup against the Clippers. The veteran has been dealing with tightness in the area and has missed his previous six contests as a result. If he remains out, Donovan Mitchell should continue to see a bump in usage running things at the point, with […]
Ben Simmons Likely To Suit Up On Friday
Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Ben Simmons (illness) is likely to play on Friday night against the Bulls. The 24-year-old missed Wednesday's game against the visiting Rockets while dealing with the flu, which opened the door for added production from Seth Curry, Tobias Harris, and Danny Green. With Simmons potentially back in the lineup, look for Matisse […]
Kyle Lowry Out At Least Two Games
Toronto Raptors guard Kyle Lowry (thumb) will miss the team's next two games against the Bucks and Timberwolves and could miss more action beyond that, according to head coach Nick Nurse. With the veteran out of the equation, look for Fred Vanvleet to potentially slide to the one spot, likely resulting in a noticeable bump […]
Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot Cleared To Play On Thursday
Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot (knee) is available to play on Thursday against the Lakers. The 25-year-old has dealt with soreness in his right knee, but he has managed to play through it. However, with an average of just over seven points per outing and a potential minutes cap, he should be considered a dart […]
Kyrie Irving Officially Active Against Lakers
Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving (back) will play on Thursday night against the Lakers. The veteran had the night off on Tuesday while he dealt with tightness in his lower back, which opened the door for James Harden to monopolize the offense against the Suns. With Kevin Durant (hamstring) still out of the equation, Irving […]
Kyle Lowry Could Miss Thursday's Contest
Toronto Raptors guard Kyle Lowry (ankle, thumb) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. He suffered a sprained ankle on Tuesday and also injured his thumb on his non-shooting hand. It wouldn't be shocking to see the Raptors take the cautious approach here. That being said, Fred Vanvleet would see his […]
Damian Lillard Has Monster Game In Win Over Pelicans
Portland Trail Blazers guard Damian Lillard was unstoppable on Wednesday night in a 126-124 win over the Pelicans. Lillard scored 43 points with 16 assists- which matched his career-high- adding seven triples, four rebounds, a block, and a steal in 38 minutes. The Weber State product has been simply amazing lately, as he's averaged 35.6 […]
Stephen Curry Drops 25 Points, Dishes Out 11 Assists
Golden State Warriors point guard Stephen Curry led the team to a 120-112 win over the Miami Heat on Wednesday night. He scored 25 points while shooting 8-for-25 from the field and 4-for-4 from the free throw strike. He hit five threes and also had 11 assists, seven rebounds, two steals and three turnovers. This […]
Reggie Jackson Finds His Flow
Los Angeles Clippers point guard Reggie Jackson produced a solid performance in Wednesday's loss to Utah, posting 15 points, five rebounds, five assists, and one steal in 31 minutes on the court. He shot 5-for-12 from the field and 4-for-5 at the foul line. Jackson had managed only 14 total points in the two previous […]
Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Returns With 22-Point Effort
Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander returned from a knee injury on Wednesday, putting up 22 points on 6-for-14 shooting in a loss to Memphis. He went 2-for-5 from downtown and 8-for-8 at the line, adding six assists and three rebounds with one turnover in 33 minutes. Gilgeous-Alexander, who missed four games, was on a […]
Ja Morant Records Third Career Triple-Double
Memphis Grizzlies point guard Ja Morant notched his third career triple-double on Wednesday, finishing a 122-113 win over OKC with 15 points, 12 assists, and 11 rebounds. It's funny to say this, but Morant's performance actually should've been better, as he had an awful 4-for-14 shooting night from the field. He finished things up with […]
Russell Westbrook With Triple-Double Against Denver
Washington Wizards guard Russell Westbrook scored 12 points on 5-for-15 shooting in Wednesday's win over the Denver Nuggets. In addition, Westbrook grabbed 13 rebounds and added 12 assists, two steals, and one block. He turned the ball over eight times. He'll face the Trail Blazers on Saturday, who allow opponents to score the sixth-most points […]
Jamal Murray Scores 35 Points In Loss To Wizards
Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray scored 35 points on 13-for-25 shooting in Wednesday's game against the Washington Wizards. In addition, he grabbed nine rebounds and dished out six assists. Murray was 5-for-10 from three and also posted a steal and a block. He'll face the Cavaliers on Friday, who allow opponents to shoot the highest […]
John Wall Scores 28 Points On Wednesday
Houston Rockets point guard John Wall scored 28 points on 11-for-24 shooting in Wednesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He added in seven assists as well while shooting 2-for-8 from three. In addition, Wall grabbed three rebounds and recorded two steals and one block. He turned the ball over seven times. On Friday, Houston is […]
Malcolm Brogdon Has Near Triple-Double
Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon compiled 32 points, nine rebounds, seven assists, one steal, and one block in 41 minutes during Wednesday's win over Minnesota. Brogdon has been playing fantastic as of late, getting at least 18 points and six boards in the past four games. He also has one double-double in that stretch. Up […]
Trae Young Goes Off For 40 Points And Eight Assists
Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young scored 40 points with eight assists, four triples, three rebounds, and two steals in Wednesday's victory over Boston. Young turned the ball over eight times, matching his season-high, though he made up for it with his absurd 70/44.4/100 shooting line. He was coming off a couple of inefficient performances, so […]
Mike Conley Won't Play Wednesday
Utah Jazz guard Mike Conley (hamstring) won't play against the Clippers on Wednesday. Conley was listed as questionable, which was a step in the right direction- though he ultimately wasn't ready enough to suit up. In his five-game absence up to this point, Joe Ingles and Jordan Clarkson have seen increased scoring and playmaking opportunities, […]
Kawhi Leonard Ruled Out, Patrick Beverley Starting
Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (leg) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Utah. Guard Patrick Beverley will return to the starting lineup after resting in the team's last outing. Leonard will miss his third game as he continues to deal with a leg contusion but could be nearing a return after being […]
