Dante Exum Traded To Cleveland
Utah Jazz guard Dante Exum has been traded to the Cleveland Cavaliers for Jordan Clarkson. The Cavs are also receiving two future second-round picks in the deal. Exum has not played in the past five games and had a very limited bench role with the Jazz, so this does wonders for his fantasy potential. Exum […]
Jordan Clarkson Traded To Jazz
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Jordan Clarkson has been traded to the Utah Jazz for guard Dante Exum and two future second-round picks. Clarkson was playing well offensively off the bench with Cleveland, averaging 14.6 points in 23.0 minutes per game. Clarkson will likely have a similar role off the bench in Utah, especially with Mike Conley […]
Bruce Brown Jr. Will Not Play Monday Night
Detroit Pistons guard Bruce Brown Jr. (calf) will not play Monday against the Philadelphia 76ers. Brown is dealing with calf soreness and is being treated as day-to-day, but the Pistons will be thin in the backcourt for this one. With Brown and Luke Kennard (knee) out, Langston Galloway, Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk, and Derrick Rose will all […]
Malcolm Brogdon Out, Jeremy Lamb In Monday
The Indiana Pacers will be without Malcolm Brogdon (hamstring), but will see the return of Jeremy Lamb (groin) against the Toronto Raptors Monday night. Lamb will be returning after a two-game absence, but Brogdon will miss his first with a hamstring ailment. This is the second night of a back-to-back, so the Pacers could erring […]
Malcolm Brogdon Might Sit on Monday
Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon (groin) is listed as a game-time decision for Monday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He must've tweaked his groin during Sunday's game, so the Pacers might take the cautious approach here. Aaron Holiday would benefit the most if Brogdon does sit this one out. He'd be worth a look as […]
Derrick Rose is Probable Against Sixers
Detroit Pistons guard Derrick Rose (knee) is listed as probable for Monday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. The Pistons are going to be cautious with Rose, so it wouldn't be surprising to see him sit out. Luke Kennard (knee) is already ruled out, while Bruce Brown Jr. (calf) is questionable for this one. Langston Galloway […]
Ricky Rubio is Fine for Monday
Phoenix Suns guard Ricky Rubio (illness) will be available for Monday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He missed their last game due to an illness, but it appears he's ready to return here. Elie Okobo will head back to the bench, but did play well against the Rockets last game. However, he won't have much […]
Shabazz Napier is Questionable for Monday
Minnesota Timberwolves guard Shabazz Napier (illness) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Golden State Warriors. The Wolves will likely wait and see how Napier feels after warmups before making a final decision. Jeff Teague would see an increased workload if Napier is out on Monday. Teague would be worth a look for […]
Malcolm Brogdon Records Double-Double
Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon recorded his seventh double-double of the season in Sunday's 117-89 loss to the Bucks, finishing with 10 points and 10 assists in the contest against his former team.

George Hill Scores 17 Points In Victory
Milwaukee Bucks guard George Hill finished with 17 points, a season-high nine rebounds, four assists and one steal on 6-for-10 shooting from the field and 3-for-6 from three-point range in Sunday's 117-89 victory over the Pacers. The 33-year-old was dealing with a thigh contusion but managed to play on both nights of the back-to-back, while […]

Oklahoma City Thunder point/shooting guard Dennis Schroder was in a groove offensively yet again during Sunday’s win over the Los Angeles Clippers, going for 28 points off the bench on 8-for-17 shooting.

Los Angeles Clippers point/shooting guard Lou Williams drew the start during Sunday’s loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder in place of Kawhi Leonard and went for 22 points on 7-for-20 shooting.

Devonte' Graham Scores 23 Points With 10 Assists
Charlotte Hornets guard Devonte' Graham put together a good 23-point, 10-assist double-double in Sunday's heavy loss to Boston, shooting 6-for-13 from downtown. He interestingly didn't record a single two-point make, while getting five more points at the line. Graham now has eight double-doubles for the season ahead of Saturday's clash against OKC. It's a good […]
Kemba Walker Gets Going Again With 23-Point Effort
Boston Celtics point guard Kemba Walker, who laid a two-point egg on Friday against Detroit, got going offensively again on Sunday in a matchup with the Hornets, scoring 23 points on 8-for-16 shooting. He was 5-for-11 from deep in 30 minutes of action, handing out four assists. Kemba is enjoying a really good month so […]
Kyle Lowry Nearly Compiles A Triple-Double Against Dallas
Toronto Raptors point guard Kyle Lowry sparked a 30-point comeback against Dallas on Sunday with 32 points, 10 assists and eight rebounds.

Jalen Brunson Scores A Season-High 21 Points
Dallas Mavericks point guard Jalen Brunson posted 21 points on eight of 14 shooting to go with nine assists and four rebounds in a heartbreaking loss to Toronto on Sunday.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Ties Career High With 32-Point Outing
Oklahoma City Thunder point/shooting guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander was held firmly in check the first time that he faced the Los Angeles Clippers -- his former team -- the first time that the two teams met this year. On Sunday, during Oklahoma City’s win, Gilgeous-Alexander tied his career high in scoring with 32 points on 12-for-25 […]
Kyrie Irving Still Isn't Cleared for Contact
Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving (shoulder) hasn't been cleared for contact and is showing no signs of increasing his activities. It's unclear when Irving is going to get back on the court. It doesn't sound like Irving will take the court again this month, so fantasy owners can continue to roll with Spencer Dinwiddie.
Justise Winslow Won't Play on Monday
Miami Heat guard Justise Winslow (back) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Utah Jazz. He's dealing with a lower back strain, but getting ruled out a full day in advance isn't a good sign. It doesn't appear that Winslow is making much progress at the moment. Derrick Jones has stepped up in […]
George Hill Could Sit on Sunday
Milwaukee Bucks guard George Hill (thigh) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Indiana Pacers. He's dealing with a right thigh contusion that he suffered during Saturday's game. Donte Divincenzo should benefit the most if Hill doesn't suit up. However, Wesley Matthews (thigh) and Pat Connaughton would see more minutes as well.
Tomas Satoransky Fills Stat Sheet Again In Saturday's Win
Chicago Bulls guard Tomas Satoransky had an action-packed 38 minutes against Detroit on Saturday, finishing a 119-107 win with 16 points, eight rebounds, five assists, and two steals.

Ben Simmons Posts A Double-Double Against Washington
Philadelphia 76ers point guard Ben Simmons posted an all-around double-double against the Wizards on Saturday, registering 14 points, 11 assists, eight rebounds and four steals.
