Dennis Smith Jr. Scores Team-High 19 Points In Thursday's Win

New York Knicks point guard Dennis Smith Jr. helped the team end a franchise-worst, 18-game losing streak with a 19-point effort on Thursday. He played a very efficient game in a 106-91 win against the Hawks, missing just three of his 10 shots and committing only one turnover in 32 minutes on the floor. Smith […]

Russell Westbrook Keeps Triple-Double Streak Alive

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Russell Westbrook extended his NBA record triple-double streak to 11 games on Thursday as he poured in 44 points with 14 rebounds and 11 assists. Westbrook scored his points with some efficient shooting as he nailed 18 of 30 shots and added two blocks with a steal while drilling four triples […]

Jrue Holiday Scores 32 Points In Win Over Thunder

New Orleans Pelicans guard Jrue Holiday provided a huge line in the win over the Thunder on Thursday. Holiday poured in 32 points on 12 of 27 shooting from the floor and 3-for-8 shooting from three and dished out seven assists with five boards while filling out his monster line with three blocks and two steals. […]

Elfrid Payton To Miss Thursday’s Contest

New Orleans Pelicans point guard Elfrid Payton will be sidelined for the ninth consecutive game Thursday against the Oklahoma City Thunder due to a right ankle sprain. Despite earning a questionable tag earlier in the day, there never really seemed like a chance that Payton would play as head coach Alvin Gentry has focused on […]

Dennis Schroder Won't Play on Thursday

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Dennis Schroder (personal) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Schroder is still out after the birth of his child, so fantasy owners can expect him back after the All-Star break. Raymond Felton should soak up a majority of the backup guard minutes behind Russell Westbrook.

Kevin Huerter is Probable for Thursday

Atlanta Hawks guard Kevin Huerter (ankle) is listed as probable for Thursday's game against the New York Knicks. He was able to play 25 minutes on Tuesday despite dealing with a left ankle sprain. Fantasy owners should expect Huerter out there for this one, but should double check before tip-off.

Elfrid Payton is Questionable for Thursday

New Orleans Pelicans guard Elfrid Payton (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. It sounds like head coach Alvin Gentry is leaning towards holding out Payton until after the All-Star break. Frank Jackson and Tim Frazier will see increased minutes without Payton on the court. Frazier is the better […]

Jaylen Adams is Probable on Thursday

Atlanta Hawks guard Jaylen Adams (ankle) is listed as probable for Thursday's game against the New York Knicks. Jeremy Lin is now with the Toronto Raptors, so Adams should see around 20 minutes as the backup guard to Trae Young. However, Adams is not a must-add player in fantasy leagues right now.

Markelle Fultz Still Has No Timetable

Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (shoulder) is still without a timetable and won't rush back to the court. Fultz was traded to Orlando at the deadline, and has been given a chance to hit the reset button. It's unclear whether or not Fultz will actually suit up for the Magic this season. He could be […]

Malik Monk Expected to Play on Thursday

Charlotte Hornets guard Malik Monk was in the G-League, but has been recalled and is expected to be available for Thursday's game against the Orlando Magic. Tony Parker (back) is not expected to play, so Monk should see minutes as the backup point guard to Kemba Walker.

Eric Bledsoe Produces Rare Clunker In Win

Milwaukee Bucks point guard Eric Bledsoe tied his season low with 21 minutes played during Wednesday’s victory over the Indiana Pacers. Where he set a new season low outright was in points, which he delivered just four of on 1-for-4 shooting. It appears that it was just Bledsoe’s turn to not log a pile of […]

Jeff Teague Drops Team-High 27 Points In Win

Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Jeff Teague appears back to form, having gone for 27 points and 12 assists across 38 minutes during Wednesday’s victory over the Houston Rockets.

James Harden Hits Historic Mark With 30-Point Streak

Houston Rockets point/shooting guard James Harden etched his name into the record books with his 42-point outing during Wednesday’s loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves, tying Wilt Chamberlain for the second-longest streak of finishing with 30 or more points at 31 consecutive contests. His M.O. of late has been to shoot, and shoot often, which was […]

Mike Conley Shoots Poorly In Chicago

Memphis Grizzlies point guard Mike Conley didn't play very well Wednesday against the Chicago Bulls. Conley scored 12 points going three for eleven from the floor and five for six from the free-throw line. This type of production has unfortunately been all too common as of late. In the past four contest, Conley has averaged […]

Winslow has been an excellent fill-in point guard […]

Dion Waiters Plays Well Again In Wednesday's Win

Miami Heat guard Dion Waiters poured in 20 points and added four rebounds with three assists in the 11-point win over the Mavericks on Wednesday. Waiters continued his excellent play as of late as he added a steal and three makes from downtown in 31 minutes of action. Waiters has put up 16.8 points, 3.8 […]

Luka Doncic Just An Assist Shy Of A Triple-Double

Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Luka Doncic just missed out on a triple-double on Wednesday against the Heat as the rookie scored 18 points, with 12 rebounds and added nine assists. Doncic did struggle from the floor nailing just five of 17 shots and added six turnovers in this one. Doncic will be a beast the rest […]

Bradley Beal's Double-Double Not Enough In Loss To Raptors

Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal led the charge for his squad in the 129-120 loss to the Toronto Raptors on Wednesday.

Kris Dunn Ruled Out On Wednesday

Chicago Bulls point guard Kris Dunn will be sidelined for Wednesday’s game versus the Memphis Grizzlies due to a back contusion. The move to hold Dunn out isn’t entirely surprising after he was unable to practice Tuesday, with Ryan Arcidiacono set to make his 25th start of the year in Dunn’s place. Dunn’s first half […]

Tomas Satoransky To Remain Out For Wednesday’s Game

Washington Wizards point guard Tomas Satoransky will miss his second straight outing Wednesday against the Toronto Raptors as he attends to the birth of his child. Taking Satoransky’s place in the starting five will again be Chasson Randle, who ultimately deferred much of the ball-handling duties to Bradley Beal, who should be in line for […]

Dwyane Wade Could Sit Out Wednesday

Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade (illness) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. He missed shootaround, so that is not a good sign, but more information will be known closer to game time. Dion Waiters and Rodney McGruder would see increased minutes without Wade available. Waiters is the better fantasy option out of […]

Terry Rozier is Doubtful for Wednesday

Boston Celtics guard Terry Rozier (illness) is doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Kyrie Irving (knee) has already been ruled out for this contest, so Marcus Smart and Jaylen Brown stand to gain fantasy value. Brown is going to be a solid DFS option with Irving out and Rozier likely sidelined as well.

Kyrie Irving Won't Play Wednesday

Boston Celtics guard Kyrie Irving (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Irving will miss the last two games before the All-Star break, but will return for the first game after the break. Terry Rozier (illness) is doubtful, so Marcus Smart and Jaylen Brown should see increased playing time and […]
