DeMar DeRozan Diagnosed With Grade 1 Thigh Strain

Chicago Bulls forward DeMar DeRozan (thigh) underwent an MRI on Tuesday that showed a Grade 1 thigh strain. The 33-year-old will therefore miss the game on Wednesday against the Indiana Pacers, but head coach Billy Donovan said that this shouldn't be too serious of an injury. Especially with the All-Star break coming up, DeRozan will […]

Bradley Beal Notches 33 Points Against Warriors

Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal posted his second consecutive 30-point game Monday versus the Warriors, finishing a 135-126 loss with 33 points on 13-for-23 shooting. He hit 3-for-8 from outside and picked up three rebounds and four assists with one steal and four turnovers in 35 minutes. With him averaging 22.8 points per game, Beal […]

Kyrie Irving Finishes Red-Hot Night With 36 Points

Dallas Mavericks guard Kyrie Irving was on fire against Minnesota on Monday, shooting 15-for-23 from the field en route to a game-high 36 points. Luka Doncic added 33 points on 10-for-20 shooting, but the Mavericks still couldn't pull off a victory, dropping the game at home 124-121. Irving was 4-for-9 with the three-ball and completed […]

Donovan Mitchell Fires In Game-High 41 Points

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell produced a game-high 41 points in Monday's 117-109 win over San Antonio, shooting 16-for-26 from the field and 6-for-13 from downtown. He added five assists, grabbed four rebounds and recorded one steal and one block in 37 minutes on the court. Mitchell was in a bit of a slump recently, […]

Cole Anthony Unavailable On Monday

Orlando Magic guard Cole Anthony (wrist) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Chicago Bulls. The young guard is dealing with right wrist soreness, so he'll sit this game out. His absence should free up additional playing time for Jalen Suggs. Over the last two weeks, Suggs has been a top-100 player in […]

Keldon Johnson Available On Monday

San Antonio Spurs guard Keldon Johnson (ankle) is available for Monday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. This shouldn't come as a surprise considering Johnson was listed as probable earlier in the day. He should fill his normal role in the starting five for Monday's game. Johnson is coming off a strong 25-point outing during Saturday's […]

Bogdan Bogdanovic Cleared For Monday

Atlanta Hawks guard Bogdan Bogdanovic (hip) is available for Monday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. It appears he has been cleared to play after being considered questionable earlier in the day. He could very well move into the starting five with John Collins (hip) sitting out on Monday. A.J. Griffin and Jalen Johnson are also […]

Andrew Wiggins Will Play On Monday

Golden State Warriors forward Andrew Wiggins (ankle) will suit up for Monday's game against the Washington Wizards. He was listed as questionable on Sunday, but it appears Wiggins is healthy enough to suit up here. He has been providing sixth-round value and fantasy managers shouldn't expect that to change with Stephen Curry (leg) still sidelined. […]

Tyler Herro Downgraded To Doubtful

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (knee) has been downgraded to doubtful for Monday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He was originally listed as questionable, but has been downgraded due to a left knee contusion. It's a shame considering Herro has finally been healthy all month. Max Strus would be asked to help fill the void, […]

Derrick White Bags Another Double-Double

Boston Celtics guard Derrick White posted a second consecutive double-double on Sunday, leading the team with 23 points and 10 assists in a comfortable victory over Memphis. He played a team-high 40 minutes and shot 8-for-20 from the field with a 4-for-9 effort from deep. White's line also had three rebounds and three turnovers on […]

Desmond Bane Does A Little Bit Of Everything For Grizzlies

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Desmond Bane produced a good all-around performance against the Celtics on Sunday, completing a 119-109 loss with 18 points, six rebounds, seven assists, one steal and two blocks. He was 3-for-7 with the three-ball and shot 7-for-14 overall from the field. Bane has now shot 50 percent or better in five consecutive […]

Max Strus Likely To Play Versus Denver

Miami Heat guard Max Strus (shoulder) is listed as probable ahead of Monday's meeting with the Denver Nuggets. Nearly the entire Heat roster is on the injury report, although the team is likely playing it safe to avoid backlash from the league office. However, with Tyler Herro (knee) questionable, Strus could be in line for […]

Tyler Herro Dealing With A Knee Contusion

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (knee) is questionable for Monday's showdown with the Denver Nuggets. Herro has a knee contusion, although knee injuries are nothing new for the 23-year-old. However, with the All-Star break on the horizon, he may get the night off to rest. If that happens, Max Strus (shoulder), who had 12 points and […]

Seth Curry Out Again On Monday Night

Brooklyn Nets guard Seth Curry (adductor) won't play on Monday night against the New York Knicks. This will be the sharpshooter's fifth consecutive absence as he continues to be plagued by a left adductor strain. There have been rumblings of a buyout, so it's possible he may have already played his final game in Brooklyn. […]

Tyrese Haliburton Listed As Questionable For Monday

Indiana Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton (thigh) has been given the questionable tag for Monday's contest against the Utah Jazz due to a left thigh contusion. This is a different injury from the two issues that kept him out for most of January. In a battle of teams that have tried to tank but are doing […]

Tre Jones Ruled Out On Monday Against Cavaliers

San Antonio Spurs guard Tre Jones (foot) returned on Saturday from a four-game absence but will now miss another game with a sore left foot. It wouldn't be much of a surprise if the Spurs start to experiment with more lineups as the season progresses, so Jones could see some more rest days along the […]

Danny Green Nearing Agreement With Cleveland

According to team reporter Chris Fedor, free-agent guard Danny Green is nearing a deal with the Cavaliers. The veteran, who was recently acquired and bought out by the Rockets, played only three games for the Grizzlies after missing the start of the season recovering from a torn ACL and LCL in his left knee. With […]

Reggie Jackson Expected To Join The Nuggets

Free-agent guard Reggie Jackson is expected to sign with the Denver Nuggets once he clears waivers, according to The Athletic's Shams Charania. Jackson, who just received a buyout from the Hornets, averaged 10.9 points and shot 35.0% from deep in 52 games with the Clippers this season but couldn't find a consistent role in the […]

Bradley Beals's Efficient Night Leads Washington Past Indiana

Washington Wizards star shooting guard Bradley Beal had a hot shooting performance, hitting 13-for-18 from the field and accounting for 32 points, four rebounds and six assists in 31 minutes. Beal also was on fire from deep, shooting 4-for-5 from behind the arc. With Kyle Kuzma (ankle) still out, Corey Kispert and Deni Avdija combined […]

Luka Doncic Returns With 27 Points

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic was back from a four-game absence and put up 27 points in a 133-128 overtime loss to Sacramento Saturday night. Playing in his first game next to Kyrie Irving, Doncic shot 11-for-20 from the field and had a 2-for-9 record with the three-ball. Irving shot 11-for-21 and outscored Doncic by […]

Donovan Mitchell Logs His Fourth Double-Double

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell had another productive night against Chicago on Saturday, putting up his fourth double-double of the season with a game-high 29 points and 10 rebounds. Mitchell, who erupted for 71 points in his previous meeting with the Bulls, shot 10-for-18 from the field with a 3-for-7 record from deep and made […]

Malcolm Brogdon Likely To Play Versus Memphis

Boston Celtics guard Malcolm Brogdon (Achilles) is expected to play on Sunday against Memphis. The 30-year-old is dealing with Achilles soreness, an injury that forced him to miss 41 games during the 2021-22 campaign while in Indiana. With Jaylen Brown (face) and Marcus Smart (ankle) out again, Brogdon will be needed to provide support on […]

Jaylen Brown Not Expected To Miss "Significant Time"

Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown (face) won't play on Sunday against Memphis. The All-Star suffered a maxillary fracture in his face after colliding with Jayson Tatum during Wednesday's Atlantic Division matchup with Philadelphia. Fortunately, he's not expected to require surgery, with president of basketball operation Brad Stevens anticipating he won't miss significant time. Nonetheless, there's […]

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Matches Career High With 44 Points

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander was unstoppable against the Trail Blazers Friday night, matching his career-high with 44 points in a 138-129 win. He even did it with near-perfect shooting, going 13-for-16 from the field and 18-for-19 at the charity stripe. In 39 minutes on the floor, Gilgeous-Alexander added three rebounds, seven assists, two […]

Tyler Herro Torches The Rockets

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro led all scorers with 31 points and almost had a triple-double in Friday's 97-95 win over Houston. He also had a game-high eight assists and shared the best mark of the contest with nine rebounds. Herro hit half of his 10 three-pointers and shot 11-for-20 overall from the field. In […]

Collin Sexton Fills Stat Sheet In Start

Utah Jazz guard Collin Sexton put together one of the strongest performances of the season in Friday's 122-116 win in Toronto, racking up 22 points, five rebounds, six assists, two steals and two blocks. Sexton typically doesn't do much else besides scoring, so this outstanding all-around performance must have been very pleasing for fantasy managers. […]

Derrick White Notches Career-High 33 Points

Boston Celtics guard Derrick White made a major impact against the Hornets on Friday, finishing a 127-116 victory with a career-high 33 points and 10 assists. He added three rebounds, one steal and three blocks while shooting 12-for-19 from the field with a superb 8-for-14 performance from three-point land. The Hornets have been horrible defensively […]

James Harden Extends Double-Double Streak

Philadelphia 76ers guard James Harden rolled through with his fourth consecutive double-double in Friday's 119-108 triumph over the Knicks. He wasn't far off a triple-double either, finishing the game with 20 points, eight rebounds and 12 assists. The Beard added a steal to his account and shot 7-for-17 from the field, including 2-for-8 from downtown. […]

Seth Curry Out Again Versus Philadelphia

Brooklyn Nets guard Seth Curry (groin) won't suit up for Saturday's clash with the Philadelphia 76ers. The 32-year-old will now miss his fourth consecutive game with an adductor strain, which could allow the red-hot Cam Thomas, who scored at least 43 points in three of his last four games, to stay in the starting lineup. […]

Jordan Clarkson Sidelined On Friday

Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson (illness) isn't available against the Toronto Raptors. Clarkson is sidelined with a non-COVID-related illness, so Talen Horton-Tucker may replace him in the starting lineup. Utah traded Mike Conley ahead of the trade deadline, and Russell Westbrook won't play. As a result, Horton-Tucker, who registered 19 points, seven rebounds, and two […]
