Cam Reddish Ruled Out For Tuesday’s Game

Atlanta Hawks shooting guard/small forward Cam Reddish (Achilles) will miss Tuesday's contest versus the Clippers due to persistent Achilles tendon issues.

The Los Angeles Clippers had three open spots to fill among their starting five for Tuesday's game versus Atlanta with Kawhi Leonard, Paul George and Patrick Beverley (knee) all unavailable.

Rodney Hood Might Miss Time

Portland Trail Blazers forward Rodney Hood (thigh) was held out of Monday's game.

Danuel House Jr. Will Be Eased Into Rotation

Houston Rockets forward Danuel House Jr. (back) has finally returned after dealing with some lingering issues.

Cam Reddish Listed As Questionable For Tuesday

Atlanta Hawks forward Cam Reddish (Achilles) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. He was previously listed as probable, but possibly the team is going to play it safe during the first game of the back-to-back set.

Dorian Finney-Smith Could Play Versus Jazz

Dallas Mavericks forward Dorian Finney-Smith is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Utah Jazz. He has missed nine straight games while he waits to be cleared from the NBA's COVID-19 protocols. It sounds like Finney-Smith is finally ready to get back on the court. He was surprisingly a decent fantasy option while Kristaps Porzingis […]

Danuel House Jr. Plans To Return For Tuesday’s Game

Houston Rockets small forward Danuel House Jr. is on track to make his return to action for Tuesday's contest versus the Wizards after a prolonged absence under the league's health and safety protocols. House comes back to a much different team than the one that he suited up alongside in his last game back on […]

James Ennis Picks Up Questionable Tag For Monday

Orlando Magic small forward James Ennis (hamstring, quadriceps) has been tagged as questionable to play in Monday's contest versus Charlotte. Ennis' start to the season was hampered by leg injuries, but he has since reclaimed his gig within the starting five, even as he has yet to compile a double-digit scoring performance. As was the […]

Jayson Tatum Out Sunday, Expected To Play On Monday

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (COVID-19) will not play Sunday against the Cleveland Cavaliers, but he is expected to play on Monday against the Chicago Bulls. Tatum has not played since January 8th, but barring any setbacks, he will make his return from quarantine on Monday. Tatum will likely see some sort of minutes restriction […]

Aaron Gordon Ruled Out Sunday

Orlando Magic forward Aaron Gordon (back/hip) will not play Sunday against the Charlotte Hornets.

De'Andre Hunter Removed From Injury Report

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (knee) has been taken off the injury report ahead of Sunday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. He was listed as questionable heading into this one with right knee soreness. It doesn't sound like he'll be limited, but Cam Reddish would see increased time if Hunter is restricted. Fantasy managers should […]

Jae Crowder With Strong Showing In Loss

Phoenix Suns forward Jae Crowder tied the team lead for scoring in Saturday's loss to the Denver Nuggets, finishing with 21 points on 6-for-15 shooting.
