Maurice Harkless Ruled Out on Thursday
Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Maurice Harkless (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. This will be his seventh straight game that he's been sidelined. He continues to be ruled out a full day in advance which usually means he's not close to returning. Evan Turner should continue to benefit […]
Andre Iguodala Will Play on Thursday
Golden State Warriors guard/forward Andre Iguodala (calf) will play in Thursday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. He rested on Monday and was able to practice on Wednesday. Iggy should get back in the rotation and see around 20-25 minutes against the Bucks. He doesn't have fantasy value in season long leagues, but could have DFS […]
Robert Covington Will Play Wednesday
Philadelphia 76ers forward Robert Covington (back) will play Wednesday night against the Indiana Pacers. Covington was unable to practice Tuesday and picked up a questionable tag against the Pacers, but feels better enough to take the floor Wednesday night. Look for Covington to pick up his usual workload barring a setback.
Robert Covington Remains Questionable on Wednesday
Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Robert Covington (back) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Indiana Pacers. Covington was not able to practice on Tuesday, so it sounds like he's doubtful to play in this one. Dario Saric would be looking at heavy minutes without Covington and Mike Muscala (nose) already ruled out. Fantasy owners should check […]

RotoBaller NBA Recap: The Youth Movement is Real
There were about four minutes left in the first quarter of Tuesday night's commencement between the Hawks and Hornets. A 41-year old Vince Carter had Jeremy Lamb in the post before spinning baseline and elevating for a one-handed, "Statue of Liberty"-esque dunk. I use "elevating" lightly. I mean, it was far from a struggle dunk, […]
Glenn Robinson III Will Start Again on Wednesday
Detroit Pistons forward Glenn Robinson III will remain in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Orlando Magic. Head coach Dwane Casey liked what he saw from Robinson last game. "I thought he brought energy, shooting, scoring and the threat of scoring," said Casey. Stanley Johnson has basically played himself out of the starting […]
Taurean Prince is Not on Injury Report
Atlanta Hawks forward Taurean Prince (ankle) is not on the injury report on Wednesday. Prince missed Tuesday's game due to a right ankle sprain. It appears Prince is fine for Wednesday's contest against the New York Knicks. Fantasy owners should check back before game time, but it looks like it's safe to plug Prince back […]
Reggie Bullock is Questionable on Wednesday
Detroit Pistons guard/forward Reggie Bullock (ankle) is considered questionable for Wednesday's game against the Orlando Magic. Bullock has missed two games in a row with a left ankle issue, but did participate in shootaround. Bruce Brown would head back to the bench if Bullock returns. Langston Galloway may lose some playing time as well, but […]
Jimmy Butler is Expected to Play Against Lakers
Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Jimmy Butler (soreness) is expected to play against the Los Angeles Lakers on Wednesday. It's highly likely that Butler plays because it's a nationality televised game. Butler did participate in shootaround, so it sounds like he'll be playing in this one. Fantasy owners should check back just in case, but it appears […]
Kawhi Leonard is Questionable Against Kings
Toronto Raptors forward Kawhi Leonard (ankle) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Head coach Nike Nurse thinks Leonard will be ready to play in this one, but no official word has been announced yet. OG Anunoby would remain in the starting five if Leonard sits out again. Fantasy owners are […]
Bogdan Bogdanovic Will Make Season Debut
Sacramento Kings guard/forward Bogdan Bogdanovic (knee) has been cleared to play and will make his season debut on Wednesday against the Toronto Raptors. He had surgery in September and was expected to miss four to six weeks. Bogdanovic should be added in most leagues, assuming he goes back to his normal role from last season. […]
Norman Powell Expected to Miss Over A Month
Toronto Raptors guard/forward Norman Powell (shoulder) is expected to miss four to six weeks after suffering a shoulder subluxation. Head coach Nike Nurse said it'll be a matter of weeks before Powell is able to return. Fred Vanvleet and Delon Wright should benefit the most from this. Neither player is a great fantasy option.
Harrison Barnes Records Double-Double On Tuesday
Dallas Mavericks forward Harrison Barnes scored 19 points on 6-for-13 shooting in Tuesday's win over the Washington Wizards. He also added 13 rebounds, three assists, and a pair of steals.

Otto Porter Efficient In Loss To Mavericks
Washington Wizards forward Otto Porter scored 19 points on 7-for-12 shooting in Tuesday's loss to the Dallas Mavericks. He also added in six rebounds and five assists while blocking two shots and swiping away a pair of steals. It was a good fantasy night for Porter, but it's also been an inconsistent start to the […]
Evan Turner Shines On Tuesday Night
Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Evan Turner posted season highs in points (16) and rebounds (11) during Tuesday's game versus the Milwaukee Bucks. His 32 minutes of action also was a season-high amount, adding in four assists, one steal and two triples on seven of 12 shooting. Turner has been steady enough across the board to […]

Phoenix Suns shooting guard/small forward Josh Jackson played a season-low seven minutes in his club's blowout loss to the Brooklyn Nets on Tuesday.

T.J. Warren Goes Scoreless In 13 Minutes Of Action
Phoenix Suns forward T.J. Warren missed all five of his shot attempts as he returned from a back injury on Tuesday. Warren added just three rebounds and a steal in 13 minutes, but since it was a blowout, the Suns took it easy with Warren's return. The wing is quite clogged up in Phoenix, but […]
Trevor Ariza With An OK Line
Phoenix Suns forward Trevor Ariza produced another solid outing where he scored eight points on just four shots in his club's loss on Tuesday. Ariza was 3-for-4 from the floor and 2-for-2 from three and added seven rebounds with an assist and a block in 31 minutes. This line does not blow anyone away, but […]
Michael Kidd-Gilchrist Goes Scoreless On Tuesday
Charlotte Hornets forward Michael Kidd-Gilchrist (finger) was held scoreless as he exited the game in the first half with a dislocated finger, only to return for the second half in the win.

Khris Middleton Continues To Produce
Milwaukee Bucks guard/forward Khris Middleton continued his three-point barrage to begin the season, making four of 10 shots from deep on Tuesday night. Middleton is producing an absurd 3.8 three-pointers per contest, good for the fourth-best total in the NBA. The 27-year-old has been suffering a slight shooting slump from anywhere inside the three-point line, […]
