Khris Middleton To Return Against Pistons
Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (personal) is expected to return for Monday's game against the Detroit Pistons. He missed Friday's game due to personal reasons, but appears ready to return to the court. His return means Pat Connaughton and Grayson Allen will lose value and won't have as many chances with the ball anymore. Fantasy […]
Cam Reddish Downgraded To Questionable
Atlanta Hawks forward Cam Reddish (ankle) has been downgraded to questionable for Monday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He rolled his ankle on Friday and managed to only play 10 minutes. Reddish was listed as probable, but maybe shootaround didn't go as planned. The Hawks are likely going to wait until closer to tip-off […]
Isaac Okoro Out Multiple Weeks
Cleveland Cavaliers forward Isaac Okoro (elbow) is expected to miss the next two to three weeks of action. He was diagnosed with a left elbow sprain, which is a tough blow to the Cavs roster, a team that is already without Ricky Rubio (knee) and Collin Sexton (knee) for the rest of the season. Also, […]
Jordan Nwora Enters COVID-19 Protocols
Milwaukee Bucks forward Jordan Nwora has entered the league's health and safety protocols. That means, Nwora won't be available for Monday's game against the Detroit Pistons. The Bucks are already without Donte DiVincenzo (ankle) and Khris Middleton (personal) is listed as questionable. That being said, Grayson Allen and Pat Connaughton could be asked to play […]
Robert Covington Removed From Injury Report
Portland Trail Blazers forward Robert Covington has been removed from the injury report ahead of Monday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. He has missed each of the last three games while following the league's health and safety protocols. His return is good timing with Cody Zeller and Jusuf Nurkic unlikely to play on Monday due […]
Khris Middleton Uncertain For Monday
Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (personal) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Detroit Pistons. He sat out of Saturday's game due to personal reasons. Pat Connaughton received the start and finished with nine points and six rebounds in 29 minutes. It certainly sounds like there is a good chance Middleton misses at […]
Cam Reddish Probable For Monday
Atlanta Hawks forward Cam Reddish (ankle) is listed as probable for Monday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. This is great news after he played 10 minutes before exiting due to a right ankle sprain on Friday. The Hawks are extremely shorthanded right now and need Reddish back on the court. He is someone that […]
Luguentz Dort Sits Out Sunday's Action
Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Luguentz Dort (knee) will miss Sunday's clash with Dallas. The Thunder are pretty much down to bare bones now and we should see some unexpected heroes. Theo Maledon and Ty Jerome are in a good position to make a bigger impact than normal. Jerome is definitely the more attractive fantasy piece […]
Terrence Ross, Mo Bamba Ready To Play Again
Orlando Magic guard/forward Terrence Ross and center Mo Bamba will return to action on Sunday against Boston. Both cleared health and safety protocols recently, and Bamba goes straight back into the starting five. Ross will lead the second unit. Robert Williams III (toe) is missing for Boston, so Bamba has a good chance to make […]
Amir Coffey Joins Starting Five On Saturday
Los Angeles Clippers forward Amir Coffey will move into the starting five for Saturday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. Marcus Morris Sr. (rest) was a late scratch, which is assumed to be because of rest purposes. Nonetheless, Coffey will start alongside Terance Mann, Serge Ibaka, Reggie Jackson and Eric Bledsoe. He is averaging 8.3 points […]
Corey Kispert In Starting Five
Washington Wizards forward Corey Kispert will move into the starting five for Saturday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He came off the bench on Thursday, but will return to the starting five here. The Wizards are shorthanded, so they're trying to be creative with their lineups. Kispert isn't exactly someone who jumps off the page […]
Brandon Ingram Ruled Out Against Bucks
New Orleans Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram (Achilles) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. He'll miss his second game in a row while he continues to deal with Achilles soreness. In his absence, Garrett Temple and Nickeil Alexander-Walker should be asked to pick up the slack. Temple has surprisingly played well […]
Nicolas Batum Sitting Out Against Nets
Los Angeles Clippers forward Nicolas Batum (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. This marks the fourth game in a row that Batum has missed due to a right ankle sprain. The Clippers could certainly use Batum back soon with their roster extremely shorthanded. Until then, Serge Ibaka will likely […]
Joe Ingles Available On Saturday
Utah Jazz forward Joe Ingles (back) is available for Saturday's game against the Golden State Warriors. This was expected after Ingles sat out on Friday due to a minor back issue. Fantasy managers should expect Ingles to return to his normal role in the rotation. He does enough to warrant rostering in most fantasy formats […]
Anthony Edwards Returns To Action With 26 Points
Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Anthony Edwards scored a team-high 26 points before fouling out in Friday's 120-108 loss to Utah. He shot a nice 4-for-10 from downtown but only 9-for-21 from the field. The young star completed his line with three rebounds, two assists and two turnovers in 32 minutes. Edwards was back after missing six […]
Bojan Bogdanovic Posts His First Double-Double Of The Year
Utah Jazz small forward Bojan Bogdanovic produced a double-double in Friday's win over the Timberwolves, piling up 24 points and 12 rebounds. He shot 6-for-14 from the field and 3-for-6 from downtown with a perfect 9-for-9 effort at the foul line. Bogdanovic also had two assists with five turnovers in 34 minutes. The Croatian sniper […]
LeBron James Goes Off For Season-High 43 Points
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James had an outstanding outing in his first game as a 37-year-old on Friday, dropping a season-high 43 points on 16-for-26 shooting in a dominating win over Portland. He added 14 rebounds, four assists, two steals and two blocks to his line, doing all the damage in just 29 minutes […]
Jae'Sean Tate Leads Rockets In Scoring Against Miami
Houston Rockets forward Jae'Sean Tate returned to action in a bench role on Friday against the Heat, but he put together a great performance in 25 minutes off the pine, scoring a team-high 22 points in a 120-110 loss. He hit two three-point bombs with three attempts and shot 9-for-15 overall from the field with […]
Jimmy Butler Notches Season-High 37 Points
Miami Heat small forward Jimmy Butler closed out 2021 with a very strong game, scoring a season-high 37 points on 12-for-21 shooting in a 120-110 win over Houston. He went 2-for-3 from deep and 11-for-11 at the line, adding one rebound, two assists, one steal and two blocks with zero turnovers. Butler featured just four […]
DeMar DeRozan Leads Bulls To Victory On Friday
Chicago Bulls forward DeMar DeRozan posted a game-high 28 points and finished off the job with a game-winning triple at the buzzer in Friday's 108-106 win over Indiana. He had a poor shooting performance with an 8-for-24 effort from the field but made the most important shot. It was his only made triple with three […]
Brandon Ingram Questionable Against Bucks
New Orleans Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram (Achilles) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. The Pelicans desperately need their star forward back, but he continues to deal with lingering Achilles soreness. At least, Josh Hart (ankle) is listed as probable for Saturday's contest. He'd be asked to step up and have […]
Khris Middleton Not Available For Saturday
Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (personal) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. This seemingly came out of nowhere and it's uncertain if he'll return in time for Monday's contest. In the meantime, Grayson Allen, Pat Connaughton and Donte DiVincenzo will be asked to do more in the rotation. None […]
Cameron Johnson Impresses Against Boston
Phoenix Suns small forward Cameron Johnson closed out 2021 with a very good performance on Friday, recording 20 points, five rebounds, one assist and two steals in a 123-108 loss to Boston. He shot 8-for-15 from the field and 4-or-9 from downtown, while logging 34 minutes as a starter. The Suns have lost a couple […]
Joe Ingles Won't Play On Friday
Utah Jazz forward Joe Ingles (back) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He is dealing with a lower back strain, so the Jazz are likely being cautious given it's the front end of a back-to-back set. Mike Conley (rest) will also sit this one out, so Donovan Mitchell will be […]
Jae'Sean Tate To Come Off The Bench
Houston Rockets forward Jae'Sean Tate will come off the bench during Friday's game against the Miami Heat. Head coach Stephen Silas found out shortly before the game that Tate has cleared COVID-19 protocols. That being said, Tate will come off the bench for this game, but will likely move into the starting five after this. […]
Jae'Sean Tate Set To Return On Friday
Houston Rockets forward Jae'Sean Tate has been cleared to play on Friday against Miami. He entered the league's COVID-19 protocols at the start of the week alongside Kenyon Martin Jr., and the duo missed two games. Martin is also available on Friday and David Nwaba and Josh Christopher have earned starts this week, but they […]
Jimmy Butler, Kyle Lowry Active On Friday
Miami Heat small forward Jimmy Butler (ankle) and point guard Kyle Lowry are available to play on Friday against Houston. They should be ready to put in a big shift as well, with Miami still short some personnel. Butler was ruled out for Wednesday's matchup against San Antonio, but the game ended up getting postponed […]
Rajon Rondo Traded To Cavaliers
Los Angeles Lakers guard Rajon Rondo has been traded to the Cleveland Cavaliers in exchange for forward Denzel Valentine. The Cavs desperately needed another guard with Ricky Rubio (knee) done for the season. Also, Darius Garland currently in COVID-19 protocols. Rondo wasn't making much noise in Los Angeles, but should have a bigger role in […]
Jalen Smith To Start On Friday
Phoenix Suns forward Jalen Smith will join the starting five for Friday's game against the Boston Celtics. He nearly double-doubled on Monday and followed that up with 11 points and 14 rebounds on Wednesday. The Suns are without their main big men, so Smith has been asked to step up. He is making the most […]
Franz Wagner Leads Magic With 20 Points
Orlando Magic small forward Franz Wagner scored a team-high 20 points on 6-for-12 shooting in Thursday's 136-118 loss to Milwaukee, hitting two of his three attempts from deep. He notched three rebounds and one assist as well with three turnovers in 34 minutes. The German is leading the pack in rookie scoring this season, having […]
