Donte DiVincenzo Ruled Out For Monday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Donte DiVincenzo (toe) has been ruled out ahead of Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. DiVincenzo will now miss his third game in a row due to toe issue.

Amen Thompson Tagged As Questionable For Monday

Houston Rockets guard Amen Thompson (calf) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Thompson is now in danger of missing a second straight game after sitting out on Saturday's contest. Another absence for Thompson would mean increased roles for Cam Whitmore and Tari Eason. On Saturday, Whitmore looked solid as he […]

Zach LaVine Upgraded To Available

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (knee) has been upgraded to available ahead of Sunday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. As expected, LaVine has been cleared to play after being listed as probable heading into this game. Fantasy managers have been getting solid results from the veteran guard this month.

He was on the injury report because of a back issue. But Powell is good to go, so fantasy managers can get him back […]

James Harden Available Versus The Lakers

Los Angeles Clippers guard James Harden (illness) will suit up versus the Lakers. The 35-year-old was questionable because of an illness. But he'll be out there, avoiding his third absence of the 2024-25 campaign. Harden has had a productive year, averaging 21.4 points, 8.0 assists, 5.8 rebounds, and 1.4 steals, keeping him a starting fantasy […]

Andre Jackson Jr. Upgraded To Available

Milwaukee Bucks guard Andre Jackson Jr. (hip) has been upgraded to available ahead of Sunday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Jackson will make his return to the court after missing their last contest due to a hip issue. He has been starting for the Bucks, but Jackson is only averaging 3.5 points per game coming […]

AJ Green Won't Play On Sunday

Milwaukee Bucks guard AJ Green (quad) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He was tagged as questionable coming into this game, but Green has now been downgraded to out. The absence of Green should mean increased playing time for both Andre Jackson Jr. and Ryan Rollins in the rotation. […]

Gary Harris Ruled Out On Sunday

Orlando Magic guard Gary Harris (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Utah Jazz. Harris has only played one game this month and continues to miss time due to a lingering hamstring injury.

Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 13 (2024-25): January 20 - January 26

Week 13 starts with eight games on Monday as the NBA celebrates Martin Luther King Jr. Day. But the back half of the week gets a bit wonky as there are only three games on Friday night, then 14 games on Saturday, and only one game next Sunday. Most leagues have a weekly moves cap, […]

Norman Powell Uncertain For Sunday

Los Angeles Clippers guard Norman Powell (back) is currently listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers.

Powell has really stepped up this season with Kawhi Leonard (knee) being unavailable for most of […]

James Harden Tagged As Questionable For Sunday

Los Angeles Clippers guard James Harden (illness) is currently listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Harden only missed two games this season, so it seems unlikely that he'll sit out due to an illness. Although, the severity of the illness is unknown at the moment, so fantasy managers will […]

Amen Thompson Downgraded To Out

Houston Rockets guard Amen Thompson (calf) has been ruled out ahead of Saturday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Thompson was questionable coming into this game, but has been downgraded to out due to a calf issue. The loss of Thompson leaves a significant hole in the rotation given the fact Thompson has been playing […]

Donte DiVincenzo Out Again On Saturday Night

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Donte DiVincenzo (toe) won't play on Saturday versus Cleveland. The former Knick got off to a slow start to his tenure in Minnesota. However, he's played well of late, most recently amassing a season-high 28 points with nine assists and six boards in a recent game against the Warriors. Unfortunately, DiVincenzo will […]

Zach LaVine Considered Questionable For Friday

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (illness) is listed as questionable ahead of Friday's game against the Charlotte Hornets.

Andre Jackson Jr. Ruled Out For Friday

Milwaukee Bucks forward Andre Jackson Jr. (hip) has been ruled out for Friday's matchup with the Toronto Raptors.

Bronny James Jr. Removed From The Injury Report Friday

Los Angeles Lakers guard Bronny James Jr. is no longer on the injury report heading into the Friday night matchup with the Brooklyn Nets.

Jordan Clarkson Won't Suit Up Friday Against Pelicans

Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson (foot) will not take the court on Friday against the New Orleans Pelicans while he deals with some plantar fasciitis in his left foot.

Collin Sexton Listed As Available On Friday

Utah Jazz guard Collin Sexton (finger) will play on Friday after being listed as available for the team's matchup against the New Orleans Pelicans.

The 26-year-old averages 18.2 points, 3.9 assists, 2.8 rebounds, […]

Gary Harris Ruled Out Again On Friday

Orlando Magic guard Gary Harris (hamstring) remains sidelined on Friday and will not face the Boston Celtics. This is his eighth consecutive missed game and 22nd missed contest overall.

Franz Wagner Remains Sidelined Friday

Orlando Magic forward Franz Wagner (oblique) is not ready to return just yet as he's listed as out while he continues to ramp up his conditioning. While he's sidelined against the Boston Celtics on Friday, Tristan Da Silva will likely remain in the starting five. Anthony Black, however, has been the better streaming option as […]

Khris Middleton Considered Probable On Friday

Milwaukee Bucks guard/forward Khris Middleton (ankle) has drawn a probable tag for the Friday night matchup with the Toronto Raptors. The veteran has played in 16 games so far this season while he gets periodic rest days for his ankle after the off-season surgeries.

Dejounte Murray Trending Towards Playing On Friday

New Orleans Pelicans guard Dejounte Murray (elbow) remains on the injury report with elbow bursitis but is considered probable to play against the Utah Jazz on Friday.

Coby White Considered Probable Against Hornets

Chicago Bulls guard Coby White (neck) is dealing with a neck strain right now but has been listed as probable for their Friday night game against the Charlotte Hornets.
