Portland Trail Blazers forward Jake Layman dropped 25 points on the Heat on Tuesday, also adding eight rebounds. He has now scored in double figures in eight of the last 10 games. For those with an open roster spot in need of points, he is worth a look. He will have a good shot for […]

Reggie Bullock Traded to Lakers

Detroit Pistons' shooting guard/small forward Reggie Bullock has been dealt to the Los Angeles Lakers in exchange for Svi Mykhailuk and a second round pick.

DeMar DeRozan Will Rest On Wednesday

San Antonio Spurs shooting guard/small forward DeMar DeRozan will join teammate LaMarcus Aldridge on the bench Wednesday versus the Golden State Warriors, taking the night off due to load management. It appears DeRozan isn’t suffering from any physical ailments, which should mean he’s a clear go for Thursday’s showdown with the Portland Trail Blazers. In […]

E'Twaun Moore Won't Return Wednesday

New Orleans Pelicans shooting guard/small forward E'Twaun Moore will miss his fifth straight game Wednesday against the Chicago Bulls due to a left quad contusion.

Joe Harris Set To Play In Wednesday’s Game

Brooklyn Nets shooting guard/small forward Joe Harris is set to suit up versus the Denver Nuggets come Wednesday, shaking off right hip soreness that kept him out Monday. Harris will likely reclaim his spot in the starting five, which should push Shabazz Napier -- who went 0-for-10 from three in his start -- back to […]

Abdel Nader Back In Fold For Tuesday

Oklahoma City Thunder small forward Abdel Nader will suit up for Tuesday’s match-up versus the Orlando Magic, returning from an absence that kept him from Sunday’s contest.

Marcus Morris is Ruled Out for Tuesday

Boston Celtics forward Marcus Morris (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

Hayward is the better […]

Tobias Harris Expected to Play on Tuesday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Tobias Harris (shoulder) is expected to suit up for Tuesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets, according to head coach Doc Rivers.

LeBron James Will Play on Tuesday

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (rest) will play in Tuesday's game against the Indiana Pacers. James returned last Thursday versus the Clippers, but was sore afterwards, so he sat out on Saturday against the Warriors. It sounds like James is good to go for this one, so fantasy owners shouldn't have to worry about […]

Jonathon Simmons is Doubtful for Tuesday

Orlando Magic guard/forward Jonathon Simmons (abdominal) is doubtful for Tuesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder, according to head coach Steve Clifford. He's missed each of the last two games and now has been downgraded to doubtful for this one. Fantasy owners should prepare to be without Simmons once again.

Khris Middleton Relatively Quiet In Shortened Outing

Milwaukee Bucks shooting guard/small forward Khris Middleton was limited to just 25 minutes during Monday’s convincing victory over the Brooklyn Nets, compiling 12 points, eight rebounds and four assists.

Vince Carter Drops 16 Points Off Bench In Second Half

Josh Jackson Leads Suns In Scoring Against Rockets

Jonathon Simmons is Questionable for Tuesday

Orlando Magic guard/forward Jonathon Simmons (abdominal) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. It appears that Simmons is likely to miss another game due to this abdominal strain. Wes Iwundu should see more minutes coming his way if Simmons is out.

Cedi Osman Won't Play on Tuesday

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Cedi Osman (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Boston Celtics. The Cavs are saying Osman is day-to-day with a right ankle issue that he suffered on Saturday. Jordan Clarkson, Alec Burks, and David Nwaba should all benefit from the loss of Osman.

Doug McDermott Out Next Two Games

Indiana Pacers guard/forward Doug McDermott (ribs) will miss the next two games after bruising his ribs. McDermott will sit out versus the Pelicans on Monday and the Lakers on Tuesday. He's not a huge part of the rotation, but Bojan Bogdanovic will play heavy minutes without McDermott in the lineup.
