Darren Collison is Out on Monday

Indiana Pacers guard Darren Collison (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Collison is expected to return at some point in March.

Tyler Johnson is Questionable for Monday

Miami Heat guard Tyler Johnson (quadriceps) is considered questionable for Monday's game against the Phoenix Suns. He went through morning shootaround and will likely be a game-time decision for this contest. Wayne Ellington (thigh) is expected to miss his third straight contest, so having Johnson would be a huge plus. Goran Dragic and Josh Richardson […]

Kyrie Irving Ruled Out on Monday

Boston Celtics guard Kyrie Irving (knee) has been ruled out of Monday's game against the Chicago Bulls.

Chris Paul Quiet Versus Boston

Houston Rockets point guard Chris Paul had a second consecutive quiet outing on Saturday, as he finished with just 15 points on 5-for-11 shooting and seven assists against Boston.

James Harden Shines On The Defensive End

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/3/18): NBA DFS Lineups

We have a nine game NBA slate to get us through this hump day and there are some interesting options across the board. Not a ton of injuries as of right now, so lineup construction should be pretty straight forward, which could make it difficult to get some of the bigger name players into the same lineup. […]

Stephen Curry Tweaks Ankle In Win

Golden State Warriors point guard Stephen Curry left the game momentarily during the first quarter when he landed on Zaza Pachulia's foot and twisted his right ankle when landing on a play.

Andrew Harrison is Questionable on Friday

Memphis Grizzlies guard Andrew Harrison (wrist) is questionable for Friday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He is coming off a 20-point game on Wednesday.

Golden State Warriors guard Shaun Livingston (rest) will not play against the Atlanta Hawks on Friday. Livingston is averaging 5.1 points and 1.9 assists in 15.4 minutes per game this season.
