Despite having been questionable for Monday's contest, James ultimately logged 36 minutes and nearly recorded a double-double while dropping 29 points. Should James sit […]

Dallas Mavericks shooting guard/small forward Josh Richardson (calf) has been tagged as questionable to play in Wednesday's game versus the Hornets due to a strained left calf. Richardson has acclimated to his new squad well through his first three games, having averaged 16.7 points per contest on 52.8 percent shooting overall. It's a small sample […]

Portland Trail Blazers small/power forward Carmelo Anthony returned to practice Tuesday, and head coach Terry Stotts said that the veteran has been cleared from the league's COVID-19 protocols and will likely return to the rotation for Wednesday's game versus the Clippers.

Josh Jackson Remains Among Starting Five Tuesday
Detroit Pistons shooting guard/small forward Josh Jackson drew his second consecutive start Tuesday against Golden State, remaining among the starting five after an early season scoring barrage.

Davis Bertans Set For Minutes Increase Tuesday
Washington Wizards small/power forward Davis Bertans has averaged just 19.7 minutes per game through his first three contests, but head coach Scott Brooks said that the sharpshooter will have his minutes allotment increased into the mid-20s for Tuesday's game versus the Bulls.

James Ennis Remains Sidelined
Orlando Magic forward James Ennis (calf, hamstring) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Dwayne Bacon is expected to continue starting, but he hasn't done anything to benefit fantasy managers.

Sekou Doumbouya Expected To Play On Tuesday
Detroit Pistons forward Sekou Doumbouya (foot) is listed as probable for Tuesday's game against the Golden State Warriors. He was questionable on Monday, but ended up playing 10 minutes with a sore foot. The injury and having a limited role has basically killed off most of his fantasy value. Although, the Pistons are trending towards […]
Jake Layman To Come Off The Bench
Minnesota Timberwolves forward Jake Layman is expected to come off the bench for Tuesday's contest. The Wolves are without both Karl-Anthony Towns (wrist) and Josh Okogie (hamstring) for the time being. Layman is expected to see time at both the small forward and power forward spot. There really is no upside here with Layman regardless […]

Danilo Gallinari A Game-Time Decision Monday
Atlanta Hawks forward Danilo Gallinari (foot) is a game-time decision Monday against the Detroit Pistons. Gallinari is looking to return to the court after suffering a mild foot sprain, but will need to go through warm ups to determine his status.

Kevin Love And Isaac Okoro Ruled Out Tuesday Night
The Cleveland Cavaliers have ruled out forward/center Kevin Love (calf) and Isaac Okoro (foot) Tuesday against the New York Knicks.

Jimmy Butler Doubtful For Tuesday's Matchup
Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (ankle) is listed as doubtful for Tuesday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. This isn't shocking news after Butler missed the second half of Friday's game.

Kevin Knox Expected To Play On Tuesday
New York Knicks forward Kevin Knox (knee) is listed as probable for Tuesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He was able to play through left knee soreness on Sunday. The Knicks desperately need him on the court with Austin Rivers (groin) and Immanuel Quickley (hip) already ruled out. Alec Burks (ankle) is listed as questionable, […]

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James posted 18 points, nine rebounds, five assists, a triple, and a steal in a 127-91 win over Minnesota. James has produced his usual blend of points, rebounds, and assists, though his performance is a bit muted to start the year because of his limited minutes. Perhaps it will take […]
Terrence Ross Continues Hot Streak Against Wizards
Orlando Magic guard/forward Terrence Ross has been on fire to start the season and continued his hot shooting in a win on Sunday against the Washington Wizards. Ross poured in 26 points on 7-for-15 shooting, including 4-for-7 from three and a perfect 8-for-8 from the free throw line in 31 minutes off the bench. Ross […]

Keldon Johnson Notches Second Career Double-Double
San Antonio Spurs shooting guard/small forward Keldon Johnson has been an early season standout, having recorded 14 points and 11 rebounds during Sunday's loss to the Pelicans.
