Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Dillon Brooks continued his recent good play on Monday, scoring an efficient 12 points against the Suns. The 22-year-old rookie shot 5-for-8, making one of his two three-point attempts. Taking care of the ball was a bit of a problem with four turnovers, but he made up for it a bit with […]
Khris Middleton Has Productive Night Against Philadelphia
Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton had a strong showing in Monday's win over the 76ers, finishing with 19 points on 7-for-19 shooting. Middleton also added seven rebounds and seven assists for the Bucks, who moved to 27-22 after the victory. Middleton has played well this season for Milwaukee and has now scored 19 or more […]
Ben Simmons Stays Hot in Milwaukee
Philadelphia 76ers point guard/forward Ben Simmons looked good again on Monday against the Bucks, scoring a tidy 16 points on 7-for-10 shooting through four quarters. Simmons was effective in other areas as usual, helping out with six rebounds and five assists as well in this one. He was active on the defensive end also, picking […]
Robert Covington Puts Up 13 Points With Defensive Stats
Philadelphia 76ers forward Robert Covington had a rough night shooting the ball on Monday, going an abysmal 3-for-12 from the field, to finish with 13 points with one three-pointer against the Bucks. Covington was helpful on the glass in this one, pulling down a solid six rebounds in the loss, while dishing out two assists […]
Justin Anderson Scores 10 Points with a Bit of Everything in Loss
Philadelphia 76ers forward Justin Anderson got some extra run on Monday with a number of the Sixers usual suspects riding the pine in Milwaukee. Anderson scored an effective 10 points on 4-for-7 shooting in his 24 minutes of action. He was pretty active in all aspects in this one, pitching in three rebounds, one assist, […]
Andrew Wiggins Has An Average Performance
Minnesota Timberwolves small forward Andrew Wiggins had a solid, but very average performance on Monday night versus the Atlanta Hawks. Wiggins scored 18 points, going 8-for-14 from the floor, with two of those made shots coming from deep. To round out the game, Wiggins also had three rebounds and three assists. Monday night's numbers were […]
Taurean Prince Couldn't Seem To Find His shot
Atlanta Hawks small forward Taurean Prince had a poor night from the field, to say the least. He scored three points, shooting 1-for-10 from the field, adding four rebounds and dishing one assist in 25 minutes of play. It just wasn't his night, as he ended up with a negative-19 plus/minus rating in the team's […]
Avery Bradley And Tobias Harris Traded To The Clippers
The Los Angeles Clippers will receive Avery Bradley, Tobias Harris, Boban Marjanovic, a first-round pick and a second-round pick from the Detroit Pistons in return for Blake Griffin, Brice Johnson and Willie Reed. This marks the first blockbuster trade of the trade season, as the Clippers appear to be cleaning house for the future. Harris […]

Tyreke Evans is Questionable on Monday
Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Tyreke Evans (illness) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He's missed the last two games but was able to go through a full practice on Sunday. Evans sounded optimistic that he'd be able to return on Monday. Owners will likely need to wait until closer to tip-off […]
Wilson Chandler Downgraded to Questionable on Monday
Denver Nuggets guard/forward Wilson Chandler (illness) has been downgraded from probable to questionable for Monday's contest against the Boston Celtics. He did not participate in Monday's shootaround, and it appears he could be in danger of missing this contest. Chandler has not been a reliable fantasy option lately, but he does see plenty of minutes. […]
Trevor Ariza Expected To Miss At Least Five Games
Houston Rockets small forward Trevor Ariza (hamstring) left Sunday's game against the Suns after less than a minute with a hamstring injury and didn't return. Head coach Mike D'Antoni says that Ariza will likely miss at least the next five games as he recovers from the hamstring strain. With Ariza out, Gerald Green should once […]
Dante Cunningham Quiet in a Start
New Orleans Pelicans forward Dante Cunningham replaced DeMarcus Cousins (Achilles) in the starting lineup in Sunday's 112-103 loss to the Clippers, but he didn't do much in 28 minutes of action, missing four of his five three-point shots and shooting 3-for-7 overall. Cunningham finished with eight points, seven rebounds, and a steal. He's averaged 6.1 […]
Khris Middleton Puts Up Another Impressive Performance
Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton continued his recent hot streak, registering 20 points on 8-for-14 shooting from the field in addition to seven rebounds and five assists in the win against the Chicago Bulls. The five-year veteran has established himself as the second best offensive weapon on the team behind superstar Giannis Antetokounmpo. Middleton has […]
Danny Green Plays Nine Minutes In Win Over Kings
San Antonio Spurs shooting guard Danny Green was disappointing on Sunday, playing only nine minutes and recording one assist and one steal to finish the game. He didn't play a single minute in the second half, as head coach Gregg Popovich rolled with Bryn Forbes for the rest of the night. Green's stock was trending […]
Kyle Anderson Posts Weak Stat Line In 21 Minutes
San Antonio Spurs forward Kyle Anderson was disappointing on Sunday, scoring only two points to go along with three rebounds and four assists in a win over the Sacramento Kings. Anderson's minutes have been trending down in the past three games, and he has not been producing much as a result. He has the ability […]
LeBron James Just Misses Triple-Double
Cleveland Cavaliers forward LeBron James nearly notched another triple-double in a win versus the Detroit Pistons, 121-104. He finished the game with 25 points on 8-for-15 shooting, including 8-for-9 from the free throw line. He also had 14 assists, eight rebounds and one steal. Look forward to continued dominance, as James will again play the […]
Giannis Antetokounmpo Nearly Notches A Triple-Double In Blowout Win
Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo led Milwaukee to a blowout victory versus the Chicago Bulls, 110-96. He not only led the team to a big win, he also led them in every single major category. He played 35 minutes and scored 27 points on 11-for-19 shooting while adding nine rebounds, eight assists, one block and […]
Brandon Ingram Fails To Impress
Los Angeles Lakers guard Brandon Ingram couldn't shake off his inconsistency issues on Sunday, scoring only 14 points on four of 14 shooting. The Slenderman did add six boards, four assists and two steals, but he was also only five of nine from the free throw line. He's becoming a huge liability in percentage leagues, […]
C.J. Miles Gets his Buckets Again on Sunday
Toronto Raptors guard/forward C.J. Miles followed up his 10-point game with another fine scoring performance on Sunday against the Lakers, dropping three triples to finish with 13 points on 5-for-12 shooting. Miles' only other stats were three rebounds in this one, but the Raptors really just expect him to play some defense and get baskets. […]
Josh Jackson Abysmal From The Field in Suns Loss
Phoenix Suns rookie small forward Josh Jackson posted a goose egg from the field on Sunday against the Rockets. Jackson could never get things going from the field, shooting an embarrassing 0-for-13, including 0-for-6 from deep. The rookie scored just two points and grabbed four rebounds in 22 minutes in what was a disappointing outing. […]
T.J. Warren Scores 24 in Suns Loss
Phoenix Suns small forward T.J. Warren had a successful night from the field despite the Suns loss to the Rockets on Sunday. Warren scored 24 points and corralled five rebounds in the loss, shooting 9-for-14 from the field, including 1-for-3 from three-point range. The 24-year-old has scored 20-plus points in four of his last five […]
Luc Mbah a Moute Productive Off the Bench
Houston Rockets forward Luc Mbah a Moute had a productive 32 minutes off the bench Sunday against Phoenix, scoring 13 points on 4-for-7 shooting, grabbing two boards and recording two steals and a block. He could be getting more minutes once more, as Trevor Ariza exited the game after the opening minute with a hamstring […]
Danilo Gallinari Won't Play Sunday
Los Angeles Clippers forward Danilo Gallinari (gluteus) won't play against the New Orleans Pelicans on Sunday. There was a chance Gallinari returned for this contest, but the Clippers do not want to rush him back to action. At this rate, it's possible Gallo is sidelined a few more games. Tyrone Wallace and Wesley Johnson will […]
Manu Ginobili Questionable on Sunday
San Antonio Spurs guard/forward Manu Ginobili (thigh) is questionable to play against the Sacramento Kings on Sunday. He's missed six straight games, but the questionable tag is actually an upgrade for Ginobili at this point. His return would take minutes away from Bryn Forbes and Danny Green. He could even hurt the value of Davis […]
Dante Cunningham Will Start Sunday
New Orleans Pelicans forward Dante Cunningham will draw the start against the Los Angeles Clippers on Sunday. Cunningham will jump into the starting five for DeMarcus Cousins (Achilles). Darius Miller and possibly Cheick Diallo will see increased playing time without Cousins. Cunningham will see increased minutes, but he's still not worth owning in standard leagues […]
Josh Richardson Posts Full Line Saturday
Miami Heat guard/forward Josh Richardson bounced back from a poor offensive outing to post a team-high 19 points in Saturday's win against the Charlotte Hornets. Richardson also put up five assists, two three-pointers, two rebounds, a steal and a block in 34 minutes. His defense was superb, limiting opposing guard/forward Nicolas Batum to 23.1 percent […]
James Johnson Double-Doubles Saturday

Johnson posted 10 points on 5-for-13 shooting with 10 rebounds, three assists and a steal in 32 minutes. Johnson also posted five turnovers and failed to knock down a three-pointer for the third straight game. […]
Maximilian Kleber Does a Bit of Everything for Dallas
Dallas Mavericks forward Maximilian Kleber once again showed his potential of being a good fantasy contributor across the board in Saturday's loss to Denver. The 25-year-old German had eight points with two triples, four boards, three assists, two blocked shots and a career-high three steals. Kleber has been in head coach Rick Carlisle's doghouse more than […]
Harrison Barnes Leads Mavs in Scoring on Saturday
Dallas Mavericks small forward Harrison Barnes had a good game on Saturday against the Denver Nuggets, leading his team in scoring with 22 points in the 91-89 loss. Barnes looked set for a monster night when he scored 12 first-quarter points, but he was defended better during the rest of the game. He shot 9-for-19 […]
