LeBron James Will Suit Up For Saturday’s Contest
Los Angeles Lakers point guard/small forward LeBron James (ankle) has been given the green light to take the court Saturday against Boston as he continues to recover from a sprained left ankle.

The Washington Wizards are getting back the triumvirate of small/power forward Deni Avdija, small forward Troy Brown, and point guard Ish Smith for Sunday's contest versus the Nets.

OG Anunoby Will Miss Third Straight Game Sunday
Toronto Raptors small forward OG Anunoby (calf) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest versus Orlando due to a strained left calf. The absence marks Anunoby's third straight on the sidelines, and with Norman Powell (quad) also unlikely to play, Terence Davis is likely to receive a second consecutive start, giving him added DFS intrigue. […]
Nassir Little Enters Starting Lineup Saturday
Portland Trail Blazers small/power forward Nassir Little has been bumped into the starting five in place of Derrick Jones Jr. (foot) for Saturday's contest versus the Bulls.

Butler's return marks his first outing since Jan. 9, having been sidelined for the Heat's last 10 outings as he worked through the league's COVID-19 protocols. Despite it […]
Norman Powell Likely To Sit On Sunday
Toronto Raptors guard Norman Powell (quad) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Orlando Magic.

He'd be worth a look as a streaming choice while […]
De'Andre Hunter Out At Least One Week
Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (knee) is going to miss at least one week of action. An MRI revealed articular wear and tear in his right knee.

Bojan Bogdanovic Explodes For Season-High 32 Points

Jimmy Butler Earns Questionable Tag For Saturday
Miami Heat shooting guard/small forward Jimmy Butler has been bumped up to questionable for Saturday's game against Sacramento as he continues to work his way back into game shape after working through the league's health and safety protocols.

Jarrett Culver Will Miss At Least One More Week With Injury
Minnesota Timberwolves shooting guard/small forward Jarrett Culver (ankle) is facing an extended absence due to a significant ankle sprain, which is likely to keep him on the shelf for at least the next week.

LeBron James, Anthony Davis Questionable To Play Saturday
Los Angeles Lakers point guard/small forward LeBron James (ankle) and power forward/center Anthony Davis (quad) have both earned questionable designations for Saturday's contest versus the Celtics. James' presence on the injury report is barely notable at this stage, while Davis' status is more pertinent in the wake of his absence Thursday. Kyle Kuzma entered the […]
OG Anunoby Ruled Out For Second Straight Contest
Toronto Raptors small forward OG Anunoby (calf) has been deemed unavailable to suit up for Friday's contest against the Kings as he continues to battle a strained left calf.
