Max Strus Probable Versus Atlanta

Miami Heat forward Max Strus (finger) is expected to play on Tuesday versus Atlanta. The 27-year-old suffered a hyperextended right finger against the 76ers. However, it hasn't kept him off the floor, so there's no reason he won't see action for the pivotal play-in meeting with the Hawks. While Strus is always a risky DFS […]

LeBron James Probable For Play-In Game

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (foot) is probable ahead of Tuesday's matchup against Minnesota. LA scratched and clawed to get to the play-in, so barring an unforeseen setback, James will be on the floor. The 38-year-old has averaged 23.0 points, 8.5 rebounds, 5.5 assists, 2.5 steals, and 1.0 blocks in two meetings with the […]

Kelly Oubre Jr. Wants To Remain With Hornets

Charlotte Hornets forward Kelly Oubre Jr. is set to become a free agent this season. Despite that, Oubre mentioned he'd like to remain with the Hornets going forward. However, he also said that he understands there's a business side to basketball. That means, if the money isn't there or the Hornets don't want him then […]

Paul George To Remain Sidelined During First Round

Los Angeles Clippers forward Paul George (knee) will remain sidelined for the beginning of the team's first-round series against the Phoenix Suns. As expected, the 32-year-old remains sidelined as they plan to re-evaluate him this week. At this point, it's uncertain how much longer George is going to be out. The fact George hasn't been […]

Shaedon Sharpe Ready To Start Next Season

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Shaedon Sharpe has announced that he feels like he's ready to be a starter next season.

New Orleans Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram had everything working for him on Sunday despite suffering a five-point loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Jerami Grant Expects To Stay In Portland

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant just played out the final year of his contract that he signed when he was first traded from Denver to Detroit. As rumors will swirl about his landing spot, he expects to stay right where he is in Portland as he offered the same answer as Damian Lillard when […]

Stephen Silas Expected To Be Out As Rockets Head Coach

Houston Rockets head coach Stephen Silas is expected to be let go once the dust settles from the regular season according to The Athletic's Shams Charania. In his three seasons with Houston, he accumulated a record of 59-177 as he only guided the team to a four-win increase since his first year. He wasn't dealt […]

Dwane Casey Steps Down As Pistons Head Coach

Detroit Pistons head coach Dwane Casey announced after the team's final game that he's out as the team's coach and will move to a front office role instead.

Jaden McDaniels Fractures Hand

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Jaden McDaniels (hand) was ruled out of Sunday's meeting with the Pelicans. The 22-year-old injured his hand after punching a wall heading toward the locker room, apparently stemming from a physical altercation between Rudy Gobert and Kyle Anderson. Unfortunately, the news isn't good, as McDaniels fractured his right hand, meaning he probably […]

Kawhi Leonard Leads Team With 27 Points

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard produced a team-high 27 points in Saturday's 126-125 win over the Trail Blazers, shooting 7-for-17 from the field with a 3-for-8 record from deep. It was a pretty poor shooting performance for Kawhi, but he saved his scoring numbers with a 10-for-10 effort at the charity stripe. In 29 […]

Kevin Knox II Scores Game-High 30 Points Saturday

Portland Trail Blazers forward Kevin Knox II had a prolific outing against the Clippers Saturday, ending up as the top scorer in a 136-125 loss with 30 points on 10-for-15 shooting.

Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Anthony Edwards scored a game-high 33 points on 13-for-25 shooting in Saturday's 151-131 win over San Antonio. He hit 4-for-9 from deep and completed his line with five rebounds, three assists and two steals in just 25 minutes of action. That's now three 30-point efforts in five games for Edwards, and he […]

Ochai Agbaji Scores Career-High 28 Points

Utah Jazz guard/forward Ochai Agbaji had the best game of his young career Saturday versus Denver, leading all scorers with 28 points in a 118-114 win. He added three rebounds, three assists and one steal, shooting 10-for-25 from the field and 3-for-11 from deep. It was an inefficient performance shooting-wise, but the Jazz rolled with […]

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope Leads Nuggets In Scoring

Denver Nuggets guard/forward Kentavious Caldwell-Pope was the team's top scorer with 21 points in Saturday's 118-114 loss to Utah. It's only the fifth time this season Caldwell-Pope has been able to get to the 20-point plateau. He did it with 7-for-12 shooting, going a sensational 6-for-8 from downtown. The Nuggets starters played only three quarters, […]

Bogdan Bogdanovic Won't Play Against The Celtics

Atlanta Hawks guard/forward Bogdan Bogdanovic (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's season finale against the Celtics. Trae Young (groin) and Dejounte Murray (ankle) are also out, meaning AJ Griffin and Aaron Holiday could see a substantial uptick in fantasy production. While both are risky fantasy options, they certainly will draw interest from DFS […]

De'Andre Hunter Probable For Sunday

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (knee) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Boston Celtics. This seems odd considering the Hawks are resting most of their starters in this game. This contest has no impact on the Hawks postseason seeding, so they don't want to risk any injuries. Despite that, Hunter appears on […]

Talen Horton-Tucker Remains Out On Saturday

Utah Jazz guard/forward Talen Horton-Tucker (ankle) is out on Saturday versus Denver. He didn't suit up on Thursday against OKC because of left ankle soreness, and barring a miracle, he'll likely sit for Sunday's meeting with the Lakers. With Collin Sexton (hamstring) also out, Ochai Agbaji should remain in the starting lineup. The rookie has […]

Lauri Markkanen Out Against Denver

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (hand) won't play on Saturday against the Denver Nuggets. Utah has one more game after this one, so fantasy managers will likely not see Markkanen for the remainder of the 2022-23 campaign. Talen Horton-Tucker (ankle) and Kelly Olynyk (rest) are also out, meaning Simone Fontecchio and Luka Samanic should receive […]

RJ Barrett Returns With Good All-Around Performance

New York Knicks guard/forward RJ Barrett ended a two-game absence with 28 points, seven rebounds and six assists in Friday's 113-105 loss to New Orleans. He had a nightmare from deep with a 0-for-9 effort but still shot above his season average with an 11-for-25 from the field. Barrett recorded one block on the defensive […]

Michael Porter Jr. On The Injury Report For Saturday

Denver Nuggets forward Michael Porter Jr. (heel) is questionable ahead of Saturday's contest against the Utah Jazz. Porter didn't suit up on Thursday in Phoenix, with Peyton Watson taking his spot in the starting lineup. However, Watson had only three points, so there won't be many DFS managers interested in his services if he gets […]

Gordon Hayward Out Again On Friday Night

Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (thumb) is out on Friday against the Rockets. His season is probably over, which isn't surprising, considering the Hornets have nothing to play for. With Kelly Oubre Jr. (shoulder) also sidelined, Bryce McGowens should remain in the starting lineup. The 20-year-old has averaged 11.0 points in five starts this season. […]

Jimmy Butler Ruled Out Of Friday's Game

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (hand) will sit out of the team's game on Friday against the Washington Wizards. Right now, the Heat would need the Brooklyn Nets to lose to an already weaker Orlando Magic team with many of their key players hovering in questionable status. Instead of banking on getting lucky, the Heat […]

Keita Bates-Diop Scores 25 Points In Win

San Antonio Spurs forward Keita Bates-Diop poured in a season-high on Thursday as the team grabbed a two-point victory over the Portland Trail Blazers. This game was a huge tank fest, but the 27-year-old at least made the most of it by collecting 25 points, six rebounds, four assists, and one steal on 7-for-11 shooting. […]

Kevin Durant Drains Six Triples Against Denver

Phoenix Suns forward Kevin Durant cashed in another efficient night at the office while the Suns took a four-point win over the Denver Nuggets on Thursday.

Bruce Brown Posts Career-High Against Phoenix

Denver Nuggets forward Bruce Brown posted a new career-high in points despite taking a four-point loss against the Phoenix Suns on Thursday. He finished the game with 31 points, six rebounds, and four assists on 11-for-18 shooting and a perfect 9-for-9 from the line. While Denver has the first seed locked up, the bench squad […]

Jimmy Butler Leads Miami In Blowout Win

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler was tied for the lead in points with teammate Tyler Herro as they destroyed the 76ers by 28 points. The 33-year-old ended the game with 24 points, six assists, and three rebounds while shooting 9-for-12 from the floor and 1-for-3 from deep. Butler only played 29 minutes in this game […]

T.J. Warren To Miss Thursday's Game

Phoenix Suns forward T.J. Warren (illness) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He wasn't on the original injury report, but it appears the veteran forward will miss this game due to a non-COVID related illness. His absence won't have a huge impact on the rotation. It should free up additional […]

RJ Barrett Questionable For Friday

New York Knicks forward RJ Barrett (illness) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. He has missed each of the last two games due to a non-COVID related illness. In his absence, Quentin Grimes scored 36 points in 43 minutes of action on Wednesday. Josh Hart also played well with […]

Matisse Thybulle Considered Doubtful Thursday

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Matisse Thybulle (knee) looks set to miss a second straight game Thursday against San Antonio, with the team regarding him as doubtful for the matchup. Thybulle has emerged as a good source for peripheral stats for fantasy managers late in the season, but with him now having trouble with his right […]
