Sacramento Kings small/power forward Trevor Ariza has been tagged as questionable for Sunday’s contest against the Boston Celtics due to a sore right groin.

Despite averaging 21.3 minutes per […]
Kawhi Leonard To Miss Saturday’s Game
Los Angeles Clippers small/power forward Kawhi Leonard will miss Saturday’s contest against the Atlanta Hawks due to a left knee contusion.

Jimmy Butler Cleared To Play Saturday
Miami Heat shooting guard/small forward Jimmy Butler has been given the green light to suit up during Saturday’s contest against the New Orleans Pelicans.

Brandon Ingram Ruled Out For Saturday’s Contest
The New Orleans Pelicans will be without small/power forward Brandon Ingram for Saturday’s game against the Miami Heat due to right knee soreness.

Andrew Wiggins Will Miss Saturday’s Contest
Minnesota Timberwolves shooting guard/small forward Andrew Wiggins has been ruled out for Saturday’s game against the Houston Rockets due to personal reasons.

Wiggins has gone […]
Dwayne Bacon is Probable for Saturday
Charlotte Hornets forward Dwayne Bacon (knee) is listed as probable for Saturday's game against the New York Knicks. However, Bacon was listed as probable for Friday and didn't end up playing.

Jimmy Butler is Questionable Versus Pelicans
Miami Heat guard/forward Jimmy Butler (illness) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Goran Dragic (illness) is questionable as well, so maybe they both have the same thing.

Andrew Wiggins is Questionable for Saturday
Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Andrew Wiggins (personal) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Houston Rockets. Wiggins did not play on Friday due to a death in the family.

Danuel House Won't Play on Saturday
Houston Rockets forward Danuel House (back) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He was listed as out, but the team has officially ruled him out for this one. Austin Rivers should start in his place and will make an interesting option for DFS contests.
Will Barton is Questionable for Sunday
Denver Nuggets forward Will Barton (groin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He's been off to a great start this season, but the Nuggets may elect to give him a rest day here. Michael Porter Jr., Malik Beasley and Monte Morris would all benefit in the absence of Barton. Fantasy […]

Danilo Gallinari Ends Slump With 28-Point Performance
Oklahoma City Thunder forward Danilo Gallinari scored a team-high 28 points on Friday in a 127-119 win over Philadelphia.

Jaylen Brown Continues Scoring Barrage During Victory
Boston Celtics shooting guard/small forward Jaylen Brown was once again extremely efficient during a high-scoring outing in Friday’s win over the Golden State Warriors.

Trevor Ariza To Miss Friday’s Contest
Sacramento Kings small/power forward Trevor Ariza will be sidelined for Friday’s game against the Los Angeles Lakers due to a sore right groin. Ariza’s absence will mark his first of the season, although he has had very little fantasy impact early on in 2019-20. It is unclear how the Kings will reallocate Ariza’s 21.3 minutes […]
Tony Snell Ruled Out For Remainder Of Friday’s Game
Detroit Pistons shooting guard/small forward Tony Snell will be unable to return to action Friday against the Charlotte Hornets due to a hip flexor strain. Snell, who has started each of Detroit’s first 13 games in 2019-20, accrued nine minutes prior to his departure and recorded just one rebound. The seventh-year wing has developed into […]
Evan Turner Tagged As Questionable For Return Saturday
Atlanta Hawks point guard/small forward Evan Turner has been sidelined for each of his team’s previous eight games, but has been given a questionable designation to suit up Saturday against the Los Angeles Clippers.
