He had 12 points on 5-for-10 shooting against the Lakers with six assists, five rebounds, and one block.

Tyreke Evans Aggressive Off Bench
Indiana Pacers shooting guard/small forward Tyreke Evans fired up 12 shots off the bench during Saturday’s win over the Atlanta Hawks. Evans has always been an enticing fantasy player due to his ability to contribute across multiple categories, but he has yet to hit a rhythm with the Pacers this season. He scored 11 points […]
Bojan Bogdanovic Continues To Scorch Nets
Indiana Pacers small forward Bojan Bogdanovic stayed hot Saturday, delivering a 22-point effort against the Atlanta Hawks. Bogdanovic entered the night as the league’s leading three-point shooter by percentage (51.6) and that number only rose after his 3-for-5 performance Saturday. Should Victor Oladipo see any kind of absence, Bogdanovic becomes the primary scorer for Indiana […]
DeAndre Bembry Aggressive In Reserve Role
Atlanta Hawks small forward Deandre Bembry was not shy Saturday against the Indiana Pacers, firing up 10 shots off the bench.

Atlanta Hawks shooting guard/small forward Kent Bazemore did a little bit of everything during Saturday’s loss to the Indiana Pacers, finishing with 13 points, five rebounds, four assists, four steals and a block.

OG Anunoby Ruled Out For Saturday
Toronto Raptors small forward OG Anunoby has been ruled out for Saturday’s game against the Chicago Bulls due to the right wrist injury that he suffered during play Friday night.

Rondae Hollis-Jefferson Cleared To Play Saturday
Brooklyn Nets small forward/power forward Rondae Hollis-Jefferson has been cleared to play in Saturday night’s game against the Los Angeles Clippers. Hollis-Jefferson entered the day with a questionable designation, but after just a one-game absence due to an ankle injury, he will return to the Brooklyn rotation.

OG Anunoby Listed As Questionable For Saturday
Toronto Raptors small forward OG Anunoby has been listed as questionable for Saturday’s game against the Chicago Bulls due a right wrist injury suffered Friday. The injury comes at a poor time for Anunoby, who figured to see a larger workload against Chicago with Kawhi Leonard sitting due to rest. Even if Anunoby is cleared, […]
Rondae Hollis-Jefferson Questionable To Play Saturday
Brooklyn Nets small forward/power forward Rondae Hollis-Jefferson is listed as questionable for Saturday’s game against the Los Angeles Clippers due to a right ankle sprain. Hollis-Jefferson was forced to miss Friday’s game against the Washington Wizards, the fourth contest he has missed this season.

C.J. Miles Listed As Questionable For Saturday
Toronto Raptors small forward C.J. Miles is questionable for Saturday’s game against the Chicago Bulls due a groin injury.

Bojan Bogdanovic Scores 16 In Friday's Win
Indiana Pacers forward Bojan Bogdanovic scored 16 points to go along with six rebounds, one steal and two three-pointers on 6-for-10 shooting from the floor.

Taurean Prince Out Again On Saturday
Atlanta Hawks small forward Taurean Prince will remain out of action for Saturday’s game against the Indiana Pacers.

Kawhi Leonard Ruled Out Saturday To Rest
Toronto Raptors small forward Kawhi Leonard has been ruled out for Saturday’s game against the Chicago Bulls due to rest. Leonard amassed a season-high 42 minutes during Friday’s loss to the Boston Celtics, but he is also yet to play both ends of a back-to-back this season, so the move is not all that surprising. […]
Rodions Kurucs Breaks Into Nets Rotation
Brooklyn Nets rookie forward Rodions Kurucs may have taken a step towards being a consistent part of the Nets rotation in Friday's win over the Wizards, playing a career-high 21 minutes and scoring nine points to go along with three rebounds.
