Houston Rockets shooting guard/small forward Victor Oladipo (quad) and power forward/center Christian Wood (ankle) will miss Saturday's game versus Dallas, leaving a sizable offensive void.

Chicago Bulls forward Otto Porter (rest) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. The training staff is going to play it safe and have Porter sit out the second half of the back-to-back set.

Michael Porter Jr. Will Play Friday Against Suns

Denver Nuggets forward Michael Porter Jr. is active and will play Friday night against the Phoenix Suns. Porter has been sidelined since Dec. 29 due to the league's COVID-19 protocols, but he rejoined the team on Thursday and is good to go moving forward. Porter has been one of the biggest fantasy sleepers this year and […]

De'Andre Hunter And Cam Reddish Playing Friday

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (knee) and guard Cam Reddish (knee) are active against the Minnesota Timberwolves Friday. Both Hunter and Reddish missed Wednesday's game and were questionable coming into Friday. It appears Hunter is fully healed as he does not have any minutes restrictions in this one. Reddish, on the other hand, has a […]

Danilo Gallinari Will Be Active Friday

Atlanta Hawks forward Danilo Gallinari (ankle) will play Friday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Gallinari has not played since December 30th and is expected to have a 15 minutes restriction off the bench in Friday's game.

Kevin Durant Will Rest On Friday

Brooklyn Nets forward Kevin Durant (rest) will sit out of Friday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Joe Harris should gain […]

Danilo Gallinari Upgraded To Questionable

Atlanta Hawks forward Danilo Gallinari (ankle) has been upgraded to questionable for Friday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. The Hawks have a few players banged up with Cam Reddish (knee) and De'Andre Hunter (knee) also questionable for this contest. The team is likely going to wait until pregame to make their final decision. Reddish and […]

Nicolas Batum Questionable For Friday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Nicolas Batum (personal) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The veteran forward has been a sneaky option in category leagues this season. He'll be worth holding even if he does miss a game or two. Marcus Morris is expected to see a boost, assuming Batum […]

De'Andre Hunter And Cam Reddish Questionable Friday Night

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (knee) and guard Cam Reddish (knee) are both questionable Friday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Both Hunter and Reddish missed Wednesday's win over the Detroit Pistons with knee issues and are probably closer to game-time decisions for Friday. If they both sit again, Kevin Huerter and Solomon Hill will likely get […]

Danilo Gallinari Listed As Doubtful Friday

Atlanta Hawks forward Danilo Gallinari (ankle) is doubtful and not expected to play Friday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Gallinari has had a rough start to his Atlanta campaign and only played in two games this year while dealing with an ankle injury.

Patrick Williams Questionable For Friday

Chicago Bulls forward Patrick Williams (hip) was able to go through practice on Thursday. It sounds like he is trending in the right direction, but should still be considered questionable for Friday's game against the Charlotte Hornets.
