George Hill is Probable for Wednesday

Milwaukee Bucks guard George Hill (ribs) is listed as probable for Wednesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Hill has seen a regular role off the bench with Milwaukee, but not enough to warrant owning in standard leagues. He's seeing minutes in the mid-20s, but is only worth considering in deep leagues.

Fred VanVleet Will Play on Wednesday

Toronto Raptors guard Fred Vanvleet (hip/thigh) will play in Wednesday's game against the Boston Celtics. He missed one game, but apparently it's a minor issue and he'll be good to go for this game.

Marcus Smart is Probable for Wednesday

Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart (illness) is expected to play in Wednesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He missed Monday's game due to an illness, but is set to return on Wednesday. Jaylen Brown would head back to the bench and see his minutes reduced.

Kyrie Irving Will Play Wednesday

Boston Celtics guard Kyrie Irving (quad) will play in Wednesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. Irving was unable to suit up for Monday's contest due to a quad issue. However, it appears to be a minor issue and he'll be fine for Wednesday. Terry Rozier will head back to the bench with Irving returning.

Shabazz Napier Tagged As Questionable For Wednesday

Brooklyn Nets point/shooting guard Shabazz Napier has been listed as questionable to play in Wednesday’s contest versus the Houston Rockets due to hamstring tightness.

Fred VanVleet Could Sit Out on Wednesday

Toronto Raptors guard Fred Vanvleet (hip/thigh) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Boston Celtics. He missed Sunday's game, but he's seen his playing time decrease with Kyle Lowry back healthy. Delon Wright would serve as the main backup point guard if VanVleet is unable to play.

Dennis Smith Jr. is Questionable Against Spurs

Dallas Mavericks guard Dennis Smith Jr. (illness) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. He's missed the last three games due to back soreness, but now is reportedly dealing with an illness.

Jeff Teague is Uncertain for Tuesday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Jeff Teague (ankle) is a game-time decision for Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Teague tweaked his left ankle during Sunday's contest, but was able to practice on Monday. Derrick Rose (ankle) is expected to play despite dealing with an ankle injury. If either player sits out then Tyus Jones would gain […]

Jeremy Lin Downgraded to Doubtful for Tuesday

Atlanta Hawks guard Jeremy Lin (illness) has been downgraded to doubtful for Tuesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He was probable due to a biceps issue, but is now dealing with flu-like symptoms that will likely sideline him for this contest. Kevin Huerter and Tyler Dorsey should see increased minutes if Lin sits out.

Derrick Rose is Likely to Play on Tuesday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Derrick Rose (ankle) said he feels good and that he'll likely play in Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Jeff Teague (ankle) is questionable for this contest, so Rose could be looking at big minutes. Tyus Jones would see increased playing time if either Rose or Teague sit out. Fantasy owners should […]

Damian Lillard's 35 Points Not Enough Against Kings

Portland Trail Blazers point guard Damian Lillard scored 35 points on Monday, but it wasn't enough to beat the Kings. C.J.

Lillard had five assists, but he also committed six turnovers. […]

De'Aaron Fox Posts Decent Line Despite Poor Shooting

Sacramento Kings point guard De'Aaron Fox was cold from the field on Monday against Portland, but he still finished with 16 points, nine assists, and two steals.

Terry Rozier Disappoints In Start On Monday

Boston Celtics point guard Terry Rozier got added to the starting unit with Kyrie Irving (quad) sidelined and he probably wrecked a lot of DFS lineups in the process in the loss to the Nets.
