Deni Avdija Questionable Versus Brooklyn

Portland Trail Blazers forward Deni Avdija (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's contest against the Nets. The former Wizard got off to a slow start to begin his career in Portland. However, he's turned it around, averaging 17.0 points, 9.0 rebounds, and 1.3 steals in six games this month. With Jerami Grant (face) already ruled out, […]

LeBron James Active Versus The Spurs

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (foot) is active heading into Monday's meeting with the Spurs. The multi-time All-Star has been dealing with a foot injury all year. However, he was listed as probable for this one, so most assumed he would be out there on Monday night. With that in mind, James is always […]

Cameron Johnson Has A Chance To Return On Tuesday

Brooklyn Nets forward Cameron Johnson (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's meeting with the Blazers. The 28-year-old has had the best season of his career in 2024-25. He also stayed relatively healthy until missing the last five games because of a sprained right ankle. The Nets are hurting entering Tuesday night, with D'Angelo Russell (shin), Ben […]

Grayson Allen Likely Good To Go Tuesday

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Grayson Allen (knee) is probable for Tuesday's matchup against Atlanta. Due to a knee injury, Allen played only 13 minutes against Charlotte on Sunday. Luckily, he escaped serious injury and has a chance to feature in Tuesday's contest. Allen's fantasy value has gone downhill this season after he was relegated to the […]

Bogdan Bogdanovic Questionable To Play On Tuesday

Atlanta Hawks guard/forward Bogdan Bogdanovic (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's contest against Phoenix. He's dealing with inflammation in his right knee. Bogdanovic has constantly battled health issues throughout the campaign, making only 17 appearances. He has averaged 11.2 points in 25.6 minutes. Bogdanovic's absence on Tuesday would give additional work to Garrison Mathews. The 28-year-old […]

Malik Monk Carrying A Questionable Tag Ahead Of Tuesday

Sacramento Kings guard/forward Malik Monk (groin) is considered questionable for Tuesday's tilt against Milwaukee. After sustaining a groin injury, he might be absent for an eighth time this season.

Gary Trent Jr. Listed As Questionable For Tuesday

Milwaukee Bucks guard/forward Gary Trent Jr. (hip) is questionable for Tuesday's contest against Sacramento. Milwaukee might have to be without him for a second straight game as Trent Jr. battles a hip flexor strain. Khris Middleton (ankle) has already been ruled out, so the Bucks could use some extra depth on the bench, and Trent […]

Khris Middleton To Sit On Tuesday

Milwaukee Bucks small forward Khris Middleton (ankle) will not play in Tuesday's game against Sacramento. He has been ruled out for bilateral ankle injury management purposes. Tuesday's matchup marks the start of a back-to-back for the NBA Cup champions, so Middleton will likely be active again on Wednesday against Orlando. Bobby Portis, AJ Green, and […]

Tari Eason Ruled Out For Monday's Game

Houston Rockets forward Tari Eason (lower leg) will remain absent on Monday against Memphis. He will sit out a 12th consecutive game for lower leg injury management purposes.

Jeremy Sochan Tagged As Questionable On Monday

San Antonio Spurs forward Jeremy Sochan (back) has been tagged as questionable for their Monday night contest against the Los Angeles Lakers. The former ninth-overall pick missed their last game due to lower back tightness, but that could be all the time he needed to come back to the court. The Spurs will likely take […]

Josh Richardson Considered Doubtful On Monday

Miami Heat guard/forward Josh Richardson (heel) draws a doubtful status for Monday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. He hasn't played since November 18 and has only appeared in eight games so far this season.

Brice Sensabaugh Returns To Jazz Lineup Sunday

Utah Jazz forward Brice Sensabaugh (conditioning) will end a three-game absence on Sunday against Brooklyn. At the start of the week, he was knocked out of the lineup by an illness, but Sensabaugh has worked his way back into game shape ahead of Sunday's action. We should see plenty of him in the game as […]

Lauri Markkanen Sits Out Sunday's Game

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (back) will not play on Sunday against Brooklyn. He will miss the second leg of a back-to-back due to back spasms. Markkanen's absence means Collin Sexton will be the only regular starter available for the contest. Players such as Cody Williams and Svi Mykhailiuk will have expanded roles on Sunday, […]

Jonathan Kuminga Out For Fifth Consecutive Game

Golden State Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga (ankle) will miss a fifth straight game on Monday against Toronto. The 22-year-old is recovering from an ankle sprain and is wearing a walking boot.

Gary Payton II Listed As Out For Monday

Golden State Warriors guard/forward Gary Payton II (calf) has been listed as out for Monday's clash against Toronto. Following Sunday's practice, Warriors head coach Steve Kerr labeled Payton II as questionable, but it looks like he still needs some time to work himself into game shape. The defensive specialist has missed nine games due to […]

Andrew Wiggins Ready To Return Monday

Golden State Warriors forward Andrew Wiggins (personal) has rejoined the team and will play on Monday against Toronto. Warriors head coach Steve Kerr confirmed the news after Wiggins practiced on Sunday. Wiggins struggled in his last outing, producing nine points on 4-for-10 shooting against Miami, so having some time off might have even benefited him. […]

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope Ruled Out Sunday

Orlando Magic guard/forward Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (knee) will not play against Philadelphia on Sunday. A knee issue limited Caldwell-Pope to 11 minutes in Friday's matchup against Milwaukee. Still, he appeared to be on track to play on Sunday when the team listed him as probable on the initial injury report. However, the veteran has been ruled […]

Caleb Martin Misses Sunday's Game

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Caleb Martin (groin) will not suit up for Sunday's contest against Orlando.

The veteran sharpshooter has had a tough campaign but […]

Royce O'Neale Likely To Return Versus Charlotte

Phoenix Suns forward Royce O'Neale (ankle) is expected to play on Sunday night against the Hornets. The veteran, who has averaged a career-high 10.5 points this season, missed the Suns' previous six games because of a sprained ankle. While O'Neale will likely get on the floor, he could have trouble doing anything meaningful for fantasy […]

Cameron Johnson Still Out On Sunday

Brooklyn Nets forward Cameron Johnson (ankle) won't play on Sunday versus Utah. He's had the best season of his career in 2024-25, averaging 19.5 points, 4.3 boards, and 43.6% shooting from behind the arc. Unfortunately, after the 2019 No. 11 overall pick appeared in 32 of Brooklyn's first 34 contests, he'll now miss a fifth […]

Alex Caruso To Remain Out For 10th Consecutive Game

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Alex Caruso (hip) will sit out a 10th consecutive game when the Western Conference leaders face Washington on Sunday.

Trey Murphy III Returning To Action Sunday

New Orleans Pelicans guard/forward Trey Murphy III (ankle) will return to action in Sunday's matchup against Boston. He's available to play again after sitting out three contests with an ankle sprain. Murphy III has been huge for the Pelicans lately, averaging 23.7 points across his last 12 appearances. However, this spell has come with Zion […]

Patrick Williams Labeled As Probable For Sunday

Chicago Bulls forward Patrick Williams (elbow) is considered probable for Sunday's matchup against Sacramento. He has been listed on the injury report with a right elbow contusion. Williams has struggled recently, and the injury is another blow for him. The 23-year-old has been limited to 5.6 points on a horrible 29 percent shooting this month, […]

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope Listed As Probable For Sunday

Orlando Magic guard/forward Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (knee) will likely be available for Sunday's contest against Philadelphia, as the team has listed him as probable on the injury report.
