Charlotte Hornets forward Michael Kidd-Gilchrist (concussion) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Boston Celtics. MKG exited early during Tuesday's game after hitting heads with center Amir Johnson. He's currently in concussion protocol, so MKG won't be able to play until he's cleared. Miles Bridges is going to see a heavy workload and […]
Otto Porter is Doubtful for Saturday
Chicago Bulls forward Otto Porter (shoulder) is listed as doubtful for Saturday's game against the Utah Jazz. Porter has missed each of the last two games with a right rotator cuff strain.

Josh Jackson is Questionable on Saturday
Phoenix Suns forward Josh Jackson (ankle) has been listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Sacramento Kings.

Gordon Hayward Ruled Out on Saturday
Boston Celtics forward Gordon Hayward (concussion) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Hayward was unable to practice on Friday, so it's not surprising to see him sitting out here.

Charlotte Hornets forward Nicolas Batum (illness) has been downgraded to questionable for Saturday's game against the Boston Celtics. Batum came off the bench on Thursday and scored just two points.

Rodney McGruder Ruled Out on Saturday
Miami Heat forward Rodney McGruder (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Washington Wizards. McGruder continues to be sidelined by a knee issue and he could very well be done for the season. However, that won't mean much for fantasy hoops with Derrick Jones getting most of those minutes. He's only worth […]

Miami Heat forward Justise Winslow (thigh) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Washington Wizards. This marks the fifth game in a row that Winslow has missed due to a thigh issue.

Siakam connected on 9-for-14 shooting and added five boards while dishing out just two assists with a block and two steals. The seven turnovers were a season high, but at least […]
Justin Jackson Gets 19 Points In First Start For Mavs
Dallas Mavericks small forward Justin Jackson made his first start for the team on Thursday against Sacramento, producing 19 points on 9-for-16 shooting, adding five assists. It was a nice revenge game by Jackson, who was traded by the Kings on Feb. 9. The 15th pick of the 2017 NBA Draft looks set for a […]

Trevor Ariza is Doubtful on Thursday
Washington Wizards forward Trevor Ariza (groin) is listed as doubtful for Thursday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He exited early during Wednesday's game after suffering a left groin strain.
