Dalano Banton Impresses In Spot Start

Toronto Raptors guard Dalano Banton had an impressive outing in Monday's 115-111 road victory over Detroit, leading all scorers with a career-high 27 points and posting a number of other personal bests. He ran the show on the backcourt with both Fred VanVleet (illness) and Gary Trent Jr. (hip) out, adding four rebounds and four […]

Klay Thompson To Rest On Monday

Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson (rest) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. It's the second game of a back-to-back set, so the Warriors have decided to give Thompson a rest day. Jordan Poole should see increased playing time and usage with Thompson sitting this one out. Poole hasn't […]

Suns Offered Cameron Johnson Significant Deal

Phoenix Suns guard Cameron Johnson (knee) is expected to miss the rest of the season after suffering a torn meniscus. The organization reportedly offered Johnson a deal in the range of four years $66-$72 million. The 26-year-old decided not to sign the extension and the deadline to sign those deals has passed. That being said, […]

Gary Trent Jr. Ruled Out On Monday

Toronto Raptors guard Gary Trent Jr. (hip) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Detroit Pistons. This is bad timing with the Raptors already shorthanded for this contest. That being said, Scottie Barnes are going to see his usage skyrocket on Monday. Also, Dalano Banton and Malachi Flynn should see a significant boost […]

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Has A 37-Point Outing Versus Knicks

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander always likes to visit Madison Square Garden and Sunday was no different. He led all scorers with 37 points in a 145-135 win over the Knicks, improving to 5-0 at the MSG across his college and professional career. Gilgeous-Alexander shot 13-for-22 from the field with a 2-for-3 record from […]

Giddey posted 24 points, 10 rebounds and 12 assists on superb […]

D'Angelo Russell Posts A Double-Double In Win

Minnesota Timberwolves guard D'Angelo Russell posted a very good outing to help his team beat the Cleveland Cavaliers on Sunday night. He registered 30 points, 12 assists, two rebounds, and one steal across 35 minutes of playing time. Throughout the game, he only missed two of his 13 shot attempts and he shot 4-for-5 from […]

Desmond Bane Officially Ruled Out

Memphis Grizzlies guard Desmond Bane (toe) has been officially ruled out for Sunday's game against the Washington Wizards. The 24-year-old will sit this one out due to right toe soreness, but hopefully won't miss significant time. John Konchar will make a spot start and see his fantasy value significantly increase on Sunday. Also, Dillon Brooks […]

Bradley Beal Won't Play Sunday

Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal won't suit up for Sunday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. The 29-year-old has been cleared to return, but needs to get up his conditioning before he begins playing again. In the meantime, Corey Kispert will remain in the starting five, while Jordan Goodwin gets extended playing time with the second […]

Jalen Green Puts Up 33 Points Saturday

Houston Rockets shooting guard Jalen Green had himself a 33-point night against New Orleans on Saturday, shooting 11-for-20 from the field with a 5-for-10 effort from downtown and a perfect 6-for-6 mark at the charity stripe. He also led the team with six assists and pulled down two rebounds while committing five turnovers in 38 […]

Max Strus Has Eight Triples, 31 Points Saturday

Miami Heat guard/forward Max Strus had a superb showing against the Hornets on Saturday, leading his team to a 132-115 win with a season-high 31 points. He became just one point short of matching his career-high, shooting an incredible 8-for-14 from three-point range and 10-for-16 overall from the field. Strus' work also included four rebounds, […]

Bones Hyland Will Miss Sunday's Game

Denver Nuggets guard Bones Hyland remains out on Sunday against Chicago while adhering to health and safety protocols. The 23-year-old didn't suit up on Friday versus Boston, opening the door for Bruce Brown to record a double-double. Based on the strong performance, Brown likely earned himself enough minutes to stay productive for fantasy managers for […]

Donovan Mitchell Questionable On Sunday With Ankle Issue

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's battle with Minnesota. Mitchell tweaked his right ankle late during Friday night's loss to the Warriors, so he may miss his second game of the year. With Dean Wade (knee) and Jarrett Allen (ankle) also carrying injury designations heading into this one, Darius Garland may […]

Desmond Bane Unlikely To Play Against Washington

Memphis Grizzlies guard Desmond Bane (toe) isn't expected to play against the Wizards on Sunday. The 24-year-old has averaged 24.7 points, 4.9 rebounds, and shot 45.1% from deep this season, so hopefully, he's out for only one game. John Konchar is the favorite to take Bane's spot in the lineup if he doesn't suit up. […]

De'Anthony Melton To Sit Against Hawks

Philadelphia 76ers guard De'Anthony Melton (back) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. His absence will move Matisse Thybulle into the starting five for Saturday's game. Thybulle is a good defender, but doesn't offer much upside in terms of scoring. Tyrese Maxey and Joel Embiid are the focal points on offense […]

Jaylen Brown Active, Won't Start On Saturday

Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown (knee) is active for Saturday's game against the Detroit Pistons. The star guard is active, but won't be in the starting five. The Celtics are going to start Derrick White, but will have Brown available in case of emergency. Fantasy managers shouldn't expect Brown to play, but the fact he's […]

Fred VanVleet Riding Questionable Tag Against Indiana

Toronto Raptors guard Fred VanVleet (illness) is uncertain for Saturday's showdown with the Pacers. He's under the weather with a non-COVID-related sickness. VanVleet logged 28 minutes in Friday's game against OKC, so head coach Nick Nurse may keep him out on the second night of a back-to-back as a precaution. With Pascal Siakam (adductor) and […]

Alec Burks May Sit On Saturday

Detroit Pistons guard Alec Burks (foot) may not play in Saturday's meeting with Boston. The veteran made his 2022-23 debut on Friday night against the Knicks and finished with 17 points in 25 minutes of work, taking advantage of Cade Cunningham's (shin) absence. With Cunningham to miss his second consecutive outing, Burks should remain involved […]

Donovan Mitchell Gets A Sniff Of A Triple-Double

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell came extremely close to his first career triple-double Friday night, finishing a 106-101 loss to the Warriors with 29 points, 10 rebounds and nine assists. He also collected two steals and one block in the game while having three turnovers in 37 minutes. Mitchell shot a solid 10-for-20 from the […]

Tyler Herro Questionable Against Charlotte

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (ankle) is considered questionable for Saturday's meeting with Charlotte, the second of consecutive matchups between the clubs. The reigning Sixth Man of the Year has already missed two games due to a sprained left ankle, so the team is hoping to get him back out there. However, if Herro sits […]

Yuta Watanabe Won't Play Against The Clippers

Brooklyn Nets guard Yuta Watanabe (ankle) is out for Saturday's meeting with the Clippers. The 28-year-old tweaked his ankle during Monday's meeting with Dallas and didn't suit up for the next game against the Knicks. Watanabe has benefited from Kyrie Irving's (suspension) absence and has averaged 5.6 points and 2.4 rebounds while shooting an impressive […]

Donte DiVincenzo Active With A Minutes Limit

Golden State Warriors guard Donte DiVincenzo (hamstring) will return to the lineup Friday against Cleveland, but he will be carrying a 20-minute restriction. The team will try to take it easy with the 25-year-old sniper, who has missed eight games with a left hamstring strain. DiVincenzo has actually averaged just 14 minutes for the season, […]

Bradley Beal Clears Health Protocols

Washington Wizards shooting guard Bradley Beal has cleared health and safety protocols but will remain out for Saturday's matchup against Utah. He has sat out three games because of the protocols, but it's possible now that Beal returns on Sunday versus Memphis when the Wizards complete the weekend's back-to-back set. Corey Kispert look set to […]

Cade Cunningham Sitting Again On Friday Night

Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham (shin) won't play on Friday against the Knicks. The 21-year-old has a sore right shin, so his next chance to suit up will come on Saturday against the Celtics. In the meantime, Killian Hayes is expected to take his place. Hayes has averaged 7.1 points, 4.4 assists, and 2.8 boards […]

Chris Paul Remains Out Versus Orlando

Phoenix Suns guard Chris Paul (heel) will remain sidelined against Orlando. The veteran injured his heel on Monday night and continues to deal with soreness. Cameron Payne should continue to take his place in the lineup. Payne scored a season-high 23 points on Wednesday against Minnesota, so he should continue to draw interest from managers […]

Landry Shamet Will Miss Friday's Game

Phoenix Suns guard Landry Shamet (concussion symptoms) will not suit up for the team's game on Friday night against the Orlando Magic. When healthy, Shamet was only a real fantasy option in deeper leagues. Now that he'll be out, and Chris Paul is questionable, this opens the door to a couple of players to get […]

Bradley Beal Remains Sidelined On Saturday

Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal will stay on the sidelines for the team's game on Saturday against the Utah Jazz. The star shooting guard is still in the health and safety protocols and will end up missing his fourth consecutive game. Corey Kispert will likely get the start again in Beal's absence and should be […]

Lonnie Walker IV Upgraded To Probable Against Kings

Los Angeles Lakers guard Lonnie Walker IV (illness) has officially been upgraded on the injury report to probable for Friday night. He previously was questionable and the team was unsure if he was going to miss his third consecutive game. As he's set to take his starting role back, Austin Reaves will probably take a […]
