Quinn Cook Is Worth A Speculative Add

Golden State Warriors guard Quinn Cook scored 15 points with two rebounds, five assists and three three-pointers in 19 minutes against the Milwaukee Bucks on Thursday night. But the big news for Cook was that Stephen Curry (groin) was forced out of Thursday's contest with an adductor strain that he suffered in the third quarter. […]

Stephen Curry Leaves Thursday's Game With Adductor Strain

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (groin) was unable to finish Thursday's contest against the Milwaukee Bucks due to an adductor strain. Curry was injured in the third quarter and played for a few minutes before heading back to the locker room. The 6-foot-3 guard not being able to return doesn't necessarily indicate the severity […]

New York Knicks combo guard Emmanuel Mudiay scored 11 points on 4-for-8 shooting, including a perfect 3-for-3 from beyond the arc, in Wednesday's victory over the Hawks.

Jeff Teague Out Friday

Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Jeff Teague (knee) is out once again for Friday’s game against the Sacramento Kings. The knee has given Teague problems for awhile now, and once again Derrick Rose will be the benefactor. We would expect Rose to get the start, and should be a lock for at least 30 minutes. Tyus […]

FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (11/8/18): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

There are only four games tonight and every day we are seeing progress with each team.

Shaun Livingston Will Sit Out on Thursday

Golden State Warriors guard Shaun Livingston (foot) has been ruled out of Thursday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. He did not practice on Wednesday and there is no timetable for his return. Livingston has basically no fantasy value as the backup to Stephen Curry. Quinn Cook will continue to see the backup guard minutes until […]

Cameron Payne Continues to Lose Minutes

Chicago Bulls point guard Cameron Payne continued to struggle in Wednesday’s loss against the New Orleans Pelicans. Even though Payne got the start, he only played 14 minutes shooting 2-for-7 during his time on the floor. His final stat line on the night read a disappointing four points, three steals, and two assists. The Bulls […]

Russell Westbrook is Out on Thursday

Oklahoma City Thunder point guard Russell Westbrook (ankle) has been ruled out of Thursday's game. The Thunder have not released a timetable for Westbrook, but it's not surprising to see him sit out this back-to-back set. Dennis Schroder will draw the start at point guard while Paul George should see an increase in usage again. […]

Darren Collison Held Scoreless On Wednesday

Indiana Pacers guard Darren Collison didn't score in Wednesday's loss to the 76ers.

Reggie Jackson Scores 15 Points In Pistons Win

Detroit Pistons point guard Reggie Jackson was an awful 1-for-6 from behind the arc in Wednesday's win over Orlando, but he managed to shoot a decent 5-for-11 overall and picked up 15 points. Jackson has regained his scoring touch lately after going through a mini-slump, although he hurt his owners with five turnovers on Wednesday. […]

Derrick Rose Scores Team-High 31 Points

Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Derrick Rose continued his renaissance on Wednesday night, scoring a team-high 31 points in a 114-110 loss to the Lakers.

Another Strong Effort For De'Aaron Fox

He hit 8-for-15 from the field, including 2-for-4 from the perimeter, while adding four assists and a rebound. It wasn't all great, as his five turnovers were tied for a game high. Ever since flipping […]

Ricky Rubio Struggles With His Shot In Win

Utah Jazz point guard Ricky Rubio managed 10 points over his 37 minutes in Wednesday's 117-102 win against the Dallas Mavericks despite the fact he missed 10 of his 13 field-goal attempts. He was able to make up for the shooting woes by dishing out 12 assists while grabbing five rebounds with three steals and […]

Jalen Brunson Hits Double Digits In Road Loss

Dallas Mavericks rookie point guard Jalen Brunson hit for a career-high 11 points over 16 minutes off the bench in Wednesday's 117-102 road loss against the Utah Jazz.

Dennis Schroder Fills In Admirably Yet Again

Oklahoma City Thunder point guard Dennis Schroder finished Wednesday's 95-86 road triumph against the Cleveland Cavaliers with a game-high 28 points across 34 minutes while finishing with seven rebounds, a steal and a blocked shot. He was a very efficient 11-for-19 from the field, although he misfired on his trio of three-point attempts. Schroder continues […]

Jordan Clarkson Comes Close To Triple-Double

Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Jordan Clarkson posted 11 points with nine rebounds, eight assists and a steal over 33 minutes off the bench in Wednesday's 95-86 loss against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He took the circuitous route to his point total, as he was a dismal 5-for-17 from the field while hitting just 1-for-7 from […]

George Hill Unable To Get Loose Before Game

Cleveland Cavaliers point guard George Hill (shoulder) was unable to get loose enough in pregame warmups Wednesday, according to head coach Larry Drew. He said Hill hurt his shoulder in Monday's loss in Orlando. "George was hurting this morning. He tried to participate in shoot-around. He didn't look good, he didn't look good at all. […]

Collin Sexton Scores Team-High 15 Points In First Start

Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Collin Sexton made his first NBA start in Wednesday's 95-86 loss against the Oklahoma City Thunder, working in the starting five in place of the injured George Hill (shoulder).

Jamal Murray Cools Off From 48-Point Performance On Monday

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray cooled off in a big way on Wednesday night against the Memphis Grizzlies, scoring 15 points on six of 21 shooting from the field and two of nine from deep.

Memphis Grizzlies guard Mike Conley only scored four points on 2-for-9 shooting during Wednesday's win over the Denver Nuggets. Conley added in eight assists, three rebounds and one steal.

Goran Dragic Will Sit Out Wednesday

Miami Heat point guard Goran Dragic (knee) will miss Wednesday night's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Dragic will miss his second game this season with the knee injury but was very close to playing Wednesday so the injury does not seem serious. In Dragic's absence, Wayne Ellington moves into the starting lineup while Josh […]

Elfrid Payton Remains Out Wednesday

New Orleans Pelicans point guard Elfrid Payton (ankle) will remain out Wednesday night against the Chicago Bulls. This comes at no surprise as Payton was listed as doubtful with an ankle sprain. Jrue Holiday will continue to man the point and has seen an uptick in his assists and overall usage since Payton went down […]

George Hill A Late Scratch Wednesday

Cleveland Cavaliers point guard George Hill (shoulder) will not play Wednesday night against the Oklahoma City Thunder. This is the first we are hearing about Hill's injury as it is reporting as a sore right shoulder. The injury does not seem serious and is most likely just a maintenance day for the veteran. In Hill's […]
