Both Anderson and Forbes will likely be asked to play heavy minutes and should be […]
Nikola Mirotic Doubtful on Monday
Chicago Bulls forward Nikola Mirotic (illness) is doubtful to play against the Houston Rockets on Monday. Mirotic has a stomach virus and wasn't at morning shootaround on Monday. Owners should get a backup plan ready with Mirotic being considered doubtful to play. Lauri Markkanen will be locked into heavy minutes on Monday and is a […]
Stanley Johnson Questionable Against Pelicans
Detroit Pistons guard/forward Stanley Johnson (hip) is questionable to play against the New Orleans Pelicans on Monday. He went through shootaround, which is a good sign moving forward. Johnson and Drummond both went through shootaround, but Drummond seems more likely to play. He's listed as probable, while Johnson is still tagged questionable. Regardless, Reggie Bullock […]
Caris LeVert Probable on Monday
Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Caris LeVert (groin) says he will play against the Toronto Raptors on Monday. The Nets held him out two games to make sure he was 100 percent before clearing him to play. There was no mention of any minutes limit, so he should see his normal amount of minutes. He was playing […]
Kevin Durant Questionable on Monday
Golden State Warriors guard/forward Kevin Durant (calf) is questionable to play against the Denver Nuggets on Monday. He was able to get through shootaround, but the Warriors are still listing him as questionable. He's likely going to be a game-time decision for Monday's contest. If Durant is able to play, Andre Iguodala will head to […]
Taurean Prince Breaks Ring Finger in Loss
Atlanta Hawks forward Taurean Prince (finger) had a night to forget on Sunday. Not only did his team suffer a blowout loss to the Los Angeles Lakers, he would also dislocate his right ring finger, which forced him to leave the game for a brief period as a result. He also didn't play well, shooting only […]
Brandon Ingram Scores Team-High 20 Points Against Atlanta
Los Angeles Lakers forward Brandon Ingram scored a team-high 20 points on Sunday. Ingram also led the team in minutes, playing 30 on the night, and shot an efficient 6-for-7 from the field as well as from the free throw line.

Paul George Struggles Sunday
Oklahoma City Thunder small forward Paul George didn't have the most efficient game Sunday night against the Phoenix Suns.

George did add to other parts of the […]

Miami Heat forward James Johnson recorded his third double-double this season Sunday against the Utah Jazz, finishing with 13 points on 6-for-12 shooting and 11 rebounds in 27 minutes. Johnson is an integral part of Miami's lineup and has now played at least 24 minutes in the three games since returning from an ankle injury. […]
Michael Beasley is Questionable on Sunday
New York Knicks forward Michael Beasley (ankle) is questionable to play against the Dallas Mavericks on Sunday. He rolled his ankle in the first minute of the overtime loss on Friday. He's likely dealing with some swelling and could be a game-time decision for Sunday's contest. If Beasley is out, Doug McDermott, Lance Thomas or […]
Bojan Bogdanovic Probable for Monday
Indiana Pacers guard/forward Bojan Bogdanovic (ankle) is probable to play against the Milwaukee Bucks on Monday. Head coach Nate McMillan believes Bogdanovic will be back in action on Monday. He was forced to the sidelines on Saturday against the Bulls, but it sounds it'll be just a one-game absence for Bogdanovic. Owners should check back […]
Danny Green Doubtful on Sunday
San Antonio Spurs guard/forward Danny Green (groin) is doubtful to play against the Portland Trail Blazers on Sunday. He's missed two straight games and hasn't made much of an impact in the Spurs lineup lately. Green is expected to miss significant time, so owners should look at other options. Bryn Forbes will continue to see […]
Stanley Johnson Questionable on Monday
Detroit Pistons guard/forward Stanley Johnson (hip) is considered questionable to play against the New Orleans Pelicans on Monday. Johnson has missed four games in a row, but is still listed as day-to-day. Reggie Bullock has filled in for him and has been fantastic in his spot. Johnson has been a disappointment this season and will […]
Kawhi Leonard Ruled Out Sunday
San Antonio Spurs guard/forward Kawhi Leonard (shoulder) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Leonard dropped 21 points, three boards, three dimes, four steals, and three blocks in 29 minutes against the Suns on Friday. Sadly, Sunday's game marks the beginning of a back-to-back set, so the Spurs will elect […]
Dion Waiters Won't Play on Sunday
Miami Heat guard/forward Dion Waiters (ankle) won't play against the Utah Jazz on Sunday. Waiters doesn't have a timetable for his return and is seeking a second opinion on his ankle. He hasn't played since Dec. 22 and might not anytime soon. Josh Richardson, Tyler Johnson and Wayne Ellington will continue to see extra minutes […]
Justise Winslow Ruled Out Sunday
Miami Heat forward Justise Winslow (knee) will not play against the Utah Jazz on Sunday. He was able to do some non-contact drills this week, so that's a good sign. Winslow is still considered week-to-week and there is no timetable for his return. James Johnson and Kelly Olynyk continue to see extended minutes and have […]
David Nwaba Gets Guaranteed Deal Through Season
Chicago Bulls guard/forward David Nwaba has been given a guaranteed contract through the remainder of the season. He has quickly become one of head coach Fred Hoiberg's favorite players on defense. Sadly, a lot of what he brings to the table doesn't have much impact in fantasy hoops. He's averaging 7.6 points, 4.7 rebounds, 1.3 […]
Kelly Oubre Jr. Solid In Spot Start
Washington Wizards small forward Kelly Oubre Jr. got the start Saturday night against the Milwaukee Bucks with teammate Otto Porter (hip) sitting out.

Brooklyn Nets forward DeMarre Carroll (rib, knee) was questionable to go against the Celtics on Saturday but was able to give it a go, scoring an ugly 10 points (3-for-12) in the losing effort. Carroll rebounded the ball well, however, pulling down seven in this one to go along with one block in 30 minutes […]
Jayson Tatum Puts on a Block Party in Brooklyn
Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum was doing his best Rudy Gobert impression on Saturday, coming away with a career-high six blocks in the win. His defense didn't end there, as the rookie snatched three steals from the sloppy Nets offense. Tatum scored the ball better in this one, finishing with 14 points to go along […]
Jonathon Simmons May Miss Game Against Cavs
Orlando Magic guard/forward Jonathon Simmons (back) may not be available for the matchup against the Cavs on Saturday. Simmons was forced to leave the team's last outing against the Houston Rockets due to spasms and has practiced sparingly as a result. In his stead, forward Mario Hezonja will likely draw the start with rookie forward […]
DeMarre Carroll A Game-Time Decision on Saturday
Brooklyn Nets forward DeMarre Carroll (ribs) is listed as a game-time decision for Saturday's contest against Boston. Carroll was also listed on the injury report before the team's last meeting with the Timberwolves but was still able to play despite the designation, which could also be the case against the Celtics. If he is unable to play, […]
Kevin Durant Probable Against Clippers
Golden State Warriors forward Kevin Durant (calf) is listed as probable for Saturday's matchup with the Los Angeles Clippers. Durant has been dealing with a strain in the calf and was forced to miss the team's Thursday night contest against the Rockets as a result. If he is unable to suit up, forward Andre Iguodala, […]
Jaylen Brown Scores 11 Points On 15 Shots
Boston Celtics guard/forward Jaylen Brown had a decent performance on Friday, hitting one triple on his way to 11 points against Minnesota. Brown was crashing the boards as usual while showing some good defensive instincts with two blocks. The field goal percentage wasn't great, but this was a solid performance by the second-year player.
Jayson Tatum has a Rough Night Against Minnesota
Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum had one of his worst showings of the season on Friday, scoring only four points on seven shots, missing all four from deep against the Timberwolves. He was a non-factor in his 30 minutes of floor time, coming up with only three rebounds, one assist and one steal in the win. […]
Michael Beasley Drops a Double-Double
New York Knicks forward Michael Beasley put up a double-double on Friday night against the Miami Heat. With 20 points and 10 rebounds, Beasley continues to take advantage of the dearth of opportunity that exists in New York. He came off the bench and only played 23 minutes but was hyper-efficient, shooting 8-for-11 from the […]
Andrew Wiggins Has A Rough Night
Minnesota Timberwolves small forward Andrew Wiggins had a tough all-around game Friday night against the Boston Celtics. Wiggins only scored 10 points, shooting 3-for-12 from the floor. Wiggins also only had three rebounds in the game Friday. This was Wiggins' worst game since Dec. 20 when he scored just seven points. The game may have been […]
T.J. Warren is Questionable Friday
Phoenix Suns small forward T.J. Warren (illness) is questionable to play against the San Antonio Spurs on Friday. Warren has started in each of the Suns first 40 games this season, but looks like a game-time decision Friday. If Warren is unable to play, Josh Jackson and Troy Daniels would see increased minutes on the […]
Dion Waiters Seeking Second Opinion on Ankle
Miami Heat guard/forward Dion Waiters (ankle) has already been ruled out for Friday's game against the New York Knicks. Waiters hasn't played since Dec. 22 and isn't practicing with the team.
