Bogdan Bogdanovic Not On Injury Report Tuesday
Atlanta Hawks guard/forward Bogdan Bogdanovic (knee) isn't listed among the team's injuries prior to Tuesday's play-in game against Miami.

Dejounte Murray Available Tuesday
Atlanta Hawks guard Dejounte Murray (ankle) will be back in action Tuesday against Miami after getting rested for the regular-season finale Sunday versus Boston. He was officially out with left ankle soreness, so Murray's health status deserves to be monitored, but he is not on the injury report ahead of Tuesday's big play-in game. Murray […]
Shaquille Harrison Receives Extension
According to ESPN's Bobby Marks, the Lakers have added a second year to guard Shaquille Harrison's contract. He'll now receive a non-guaranteed salary of $2.4 million, and it gives Los Angeles a trade asset this offseason or at least a player who will compete for a roster spot. The 29-year-old journeyman has played for six […]
Jaylen Nowell Trending In Right Direction
Minnesota Timberwolves guard Jaylen Nowell (knee) is trending in the right direction for Tuesday's play-in matchup against the Los Angeles Lakers. The 23-year-old has missed the last six games due to a lingering knee issue. He has only played 44 total minutes since February 24, but that was partly due to the fact that the […]
Shaedon Sharpe Ready To Start Next Season
Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Shaedon Sharpe has announced that he feels like he's ready to be a starter next season.

Dallas Mavericks guard Jaden Hardy led all scorers with 25 points in Sunday's season finale against San Antonio, shooting 11-for-23 from the field in a 138-117 loss.

Detroit Pistons guard Killian Hayes finished off the season with a game-high 26 points in Sunday's 103-81 loss in Chicago. He shot 8-for-18 from the field, including 3-for-8 from outside, and completed a good all-around performance with eight rebounds, seven assists and one block.

Mac McClung Nearly Collects Triple-Double On Sunday

In a game that didn't mean much for the […]
Stephen Silas Expected To Be Out As Rockets Head Coach
Houston Rockets head coach Stephen Silas is expected to be let go once the dust settles from the regular season according to The Athletic's Shams Charania. In his three seasons with Houston, he accumulated a record of 59-177 as he only guided the team to a four-win increase since his first year. He wasn't dealt […]

Kyrie Irving Declines Exit Interview With Dallas Media
Dallas Mavericks guard Kyrie Irving declined to do an exit interview with the media on Sunday. After the 31-year-old was traded by Brooklyn, he indicated that he wanted to remain in Dallas. However, the latest development will open the door for speculation surrounding his future with the team moving ahead. Irving appeared in 20 games […]
Anthony Edwards Tallies 33 Points Against San Antonio
Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Anthony Edwards scored a game-high 33 points on 13-for-25 shooting in Saturday's 151-131 win over San Antonio. He hit 4-for-9 from deep and completed his line with five rebounds, three assists and two steals in just 25 minutes of action. That's now three 30-point efforts in five games for Edwards, and he […]
Kris Dunn Notches A Double-Double
Utah Jazz guard Kris Dunn bagged a 19-point, 14-assist double-double as the team beat Denver 118-114 on Saturday. He even almost made it a triple-double, collecting eight rebounds with three steals and one block in 37 minutes. Dunn made his second consecutive start and shot 6-for-13 in the game with a 7-for-8 effort at the […]
Ochai Agbaji Scores Career-High 28 Points
Utah Jazz guard/forward Ochai Agbaji had the best game of his young career Saturday versus Denver, leading all scorers with 28 points in a 118-114 win. He added three rebounds, three assists and one steal, shooting 10-for-25 from the field and 3-for-11 from deep. It was an inefficient performance shooting-wise, but the Jazz rolled with […]
Kentavious Caldwell-Pope Leads Nuggets In Scoring
Denver Nuggets guard/forward Kentavious Caldwell-Pope was the team's top scorer with 21 points in Saturday's 118-114 loss to Utah. It's only the fifth time this season Caldwell-Pope has been able to get to the 20-point plateau. He did it with 7-for-12 shooting, going a sensational 6-for-8 from downtown. The Nuggets starters played only three quarters, […]
Darius Garland, Donovan Mitchell Out On Sunday
Cleveland Cavaliers guards Darius Garland (leg) and Donovan Mitchell (hand) aren't available for Sunday's meeting with Charlotte. Cleveland is in postseason mode, so Caris LeVert (knee) is also unavailable for this one. As a result, Ricky Rubio, Raul Neto, and Sam Merrill should receive plenty of minutes to warrant DFS consideration. However, it's anyone's guess […]
Marcus Smart May Miss Sunday's Game
Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart (neck) is questionable ahead of Sunday's showdown with the Atlanta Hawks. The C's are focused on the postseason, so fantasy managers shouldn't count on Smart being out there for this one. Jaylen Brown (finger) and Al Horford (back) are already ruled out. However, Robert Williams III (knee) and Jayson Tatum […]
Bogdan Bogdanovic Won't Play Against The Celtics
Atlanta Hawks guard/forward Bogdan Bogdanovic (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's season finale against the Celtics. Trae Young (groin) and Dejounte Murray (ankle) are also out, meaning AJ Griffin and Aaron Holiday could see a substantial uptick in fantasy production. While both are risky fantasy options, they certainly will draw interest from DFS […]
Dejounte Murray Ruled Out Versus Boston
Atlanta Hawks guard Dejounte Murray (ankle) won't suit up against the Celtics. Trae Young (groin) and Bogdan Bogdanovic (knee) are out as well, so the Hawks will have to go deep into the bench. As a result, Aaron Holiday, AJ Griffin, Vit Krejci, and Garrison Mathews should all see enough work to warrant DFS consideration. […]
Jaylen Brown Won't Play On Sunday
Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown (finger) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. This is not surprising considering Brown needed five stitches after cutting his finger while picking up a broken vase in his home. That being said, the Celtics will rest Brown with this game not having any impact on […]
Talen Horton-Tucker Remains Out On Saturday
Utah Jazz guard/forward Talen Horton-Tucker (ankle) is out on Saturday versus Denver. He didn't suit up on Thursday against OKC because of left ankle soreness, and barring a miracle, he'll likely sit for Sunday's meeting with the Lakers. With Collin Sexton (hamstring) also out, Ochai Agbaji should remain in the starting lineup. The rookie has […]
Collin Sexton Ruled Out Against Denver
Utah Jazz guard Collin Sexton (hamstring) won't suit up on Saturday versus the Nuggets. The 24-year-old played one game since the All-Star break because of a hamstring injury. Considering Utah has nothing left to play for, Sexton's season is probably finished. Nevertheless, Kris Dunn, coming off a team-high 22 points against OKC on Thursday night, […]
RJ Barrett Returns With Good All-Around Performance
New York Knicks guard/forward RJ Barrett ended a two-game absence with 28 points, seven rebounds and six assists in Friday's 113-105 loss to New Orleans. He had a nightmare from deep with a 0-for-9 effort but still shot above his season average with an 11-for-25 from the field. Barrett recorded one block on the defensive […]
Jaden Ivey Fills The Stat Sheet Friday
Detroit Pistons guard Jaden Ivey continued his good end-of-the-season run with an impressive all-around performance Friday against Indiana. He led his squad to a 122-115 win by contributing a team-high 29 points, five rebounds, nine assists and two steals. With the Pistons short of options, Ivey logged a massive 42 minutes in the game and […]
Theo Maledon Has Another Productive Outing Friday
Charlotte Hornets guard Theo Maledon put in another productive performance Friday against Houston, posting 22 points with eight assists and a career-high five steals in a 122-109 loss. He got there with 8-for-15 shooting, hitting a nice 4-for-8 from behind the arc. Across 38 minutes of action, Maledon also picked up one rebound and one […]
Bruce Brown Probable Against Utah
Denver Nuggets guard Bruce Brown (knee) is probable for Saturday's showdown with Utah. The veteran is dealing with runner's knee, although it doesn't appear it will keep him off the floor. Brown finished Thursday's game versus Phoenix with a game-high 31 points, so he could continue to benefit if Nikola Jokic (calf), Jamal Murray (thumb), […]
James Harden And Tyrese Maxey Getting A Rest Night
Philadelphia 76ers guards James Harden and Tyrese Maxey will both receive a rest night against the Atlanta Hawks on Friday. They'll most likely get another rest day for their final game after this as well, but if there are any fantasy managers still in their championship game, then the bench players are calling. Since De'Anthony […]
Tyrese Haliburton Will Miss Sixth Consecutive Game
Indiana Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton (ankle) has seemingly been shut down for the remainder of the season as he's missed the last five games and hasn't even been upgraded to questionable for most of these absences. The third-year guard will most likely finish as a top three most improved player of the year finalist as […]
