Alex Caruso Will Rejoin Rotation Thursday
Los Angeles Lakers point/shooting guard Alex Caruso (concussion) has been cleared to get back into action for Thursday's game against the Hornets. Caruso has missed the team's two prior games as he works his way through the concussion protocol. Only utilized in the deepest of season-long formats, Caruso saw his minutes increase to 22.5 per […]
Luguentz Dort, Theo Maledon Cleared For Thursday’s Game
Oklahoma City Thunder shooting guard/small forward Luguentz Dort (toe) and point/shooting guard Theo Maledon (thumb) have both been given the thumbs up to get back into action Thursday against Atlanta. Dort had missed OKC's two most recent contests, while Maledon was questionable despite logging 32 minutes Tuesday. The duo stand to reclaim their own sizable […]
Aaron Gordon, Evan Fournier Set To Play Thursday
Orlando Magic point guard/power forward Aaron Gordon (ankle) and shooting guard/small forward Evan Fournier (groin) have been cleared to take the floor for Thursday's game against the Knicks. Gordon will draw the start, but also serve as the team's backup PG behind Chasson Randle with the rest of the team's primary ball-handling options unavailable. Fournier […]
Jeremy Lamb Practices On Thursday
Indiana Pacers guard Jeremy Lamb (knee) was able to take part in Thursday's practice, according to head coach Nate Bjorkgren. He has missed each of the last three games due to left knee soreness. It would be tough for Lamb to make an impact with Caris Levert healthy and above him in the rotation. Lamb […]
Paul George Leads Clippers With 28 Points
Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Paul George scored a team-high 28 points in Wednesday's loss to Dallas, going 10-for-20 from the field and 5-for-8 from downtown. His line also included seven rebounds, five assists, one steal, one block, and four turnovers in 41 minutes. PG13 is having a bit of a rough spell at the moment, […]
Terry Rozier Scores Team-High 21 Points
Charlotte Hornets guard Terry Rozier shot 7-for-13 en route to a team-high 21 points in Wednesday's loss to Denver. He was 3-for-9 from downtown and 4-for-5 at the line with five rebounds, four assists, and two steals. Scary Terry seems to have started to pick up steam again with back-to-back 20-point outings. However, he will […]
De'Anthony Melton Notches Double-Double Off The Bench
Memphis Grizzlies guard De'Anthony Melton had a very productive night off the bench against Miami on Wednesday, finishing an 89-85 win with 13 points, 10 rebounds, six assists, and two steals. Only Jonas Valanciunas (12) had more rebounds than him on the Grizzlies squad while nobody scored more points or handed out more assists. Ja […]
Norman Powell Drops Career-High 43 Points
Toronto Raptors guard Norman Powell put together a superhero effort in a 116-112 loss to the Pistons on Wednesday. Powell scored a career-high 43 points with eight triples and three rebounds in 38 minutes. On a night where the Raptors' three core players, Pascal Siakam, Fred VanVleet, and Kyle Lowry, combined to shoot 7-for-37, Powell […]
Bradley Beal Pours In 29 Points Against Kings
Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal posted 29 points, six rebounds, and five assists in 36 minutes during Wednesday's loss to the Kings. Beal now has at least 29 points, six rebounds, and five assists in the past two games and has been decent since the All-Star break. The guard's massive role will always give him […]
James Harden Notches 40-Point Triple-Double In Win Over Pacers
Brooklyn Nets guard James Harden exploded for 40 points, 15 assists, 10 rebounds, two triples, and two steals in a 124-115 win over Indiana on Wednesday. Harden shot just 22.2 percent from beyond the arc, but that's about the only complaint, considering he made 12 free throws and committed only two turnovers in 42 minutes. […]
Theo Maledon And Luguentz Dort Questionable Against Hawks
Oklahoma City Thunder guards Theo Maledon (thumb) and Luguentz Dort (toe) are questionable to play Thursday against the Atlanta Hawks. Maledon returned Tuesday from a one-game absence due to a sprained ankle and played 32 minutes, but picked up a thumb injury on his off hand. Dort, on the other hand, has now missed two […]
Ben McLemore Remains Sidelined With Ankle Injury
Houston Rockets guard Ben McLemore (ankle) has been ruled out Wednesday against the Golden State Warriors. McLemore missed the first leg of the back-to-back as well and Kevin Porter Jr. was given a ton of minutes. With Victor Oladipo (rest) out as well, Porter should see huge usage in the backcourt Wednesday. The good news […]
Jarrett Culver Earns Doubtful Tag For Thursday
Minnesota Timberwolves shooting guard/small forward Jarrett Culver (toe) has been listed as doubtful to suit up for Thursday's game against the Suns due to a strained toe. Head coach Chris Finch has been "hopeful" to get Culver back for the back-to-back matchup against the Suns, which could indicate that Culver may be around Friday. Culver […]
Aaron Gordon, Evan Fournier, Terrence Ross Questionable
Three key Orlando Magic players have picked up questionable designations for Thursday's contest against the Knicks. Point guard/power forward Aaron Gordon (ankle, rest) and shooting guard/small forward Evan Fournier (groin) were both able to practice Wednesday, while shooting guard/small forward Terrence Ross (knee) has also been deemed questionable. With the roster completely in flux, Nikola […]
Phoenix Lands Torrey Craig In Trade
Shooting guard/small forward Torrey Craig has been dealt to the Phoenix Suns, adding to the team's depth on the wing. Craig inked a deal with Milwaukee during the off-season, but he was a limited fit for the team's second unit, not scoring in double figures in any of his 18 appearances (in which he averaged […]
Frank Jackson Draws Start Wednesday
Detroit Pistons point/shooting guard Frank Jackson shifts into the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Raptors, marking his first start of the year. Jackson played a season-high 18 minutes versus San Antonio on Wednesday, dropping 10 points on 4-for-7 shooting. With Wayne Ellington (adductor) still down, Jackson will shift to the first unit, while […]
Wayne Ellington Misses Second Straight Outing
Detroit Pistons shooting guard Wayne Ellington (groin) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Toronto due to a strained right adductor. With Hamidou Diallo (groin) also on the shelf, Josh Jackson figures to see a sizable workload Wednesday, ratcheting up his DFS intrigue. Ellington has remained a consistent three-point marksman for the Pistons when […]
Landry Shamet Enters Starting Five Wednesday
Brooklyn Nets shooting guard Landry Shamet has been bumped up to the starting lineup in place of Kyrie Irving (groin) for Wednesday's contest against the Pacers. The start will mark the first for Shamet in a Nets uniform after drawing 30 starts with the Clippers last year. It's been a rough acclimation to the mix […]
Pascal Siakam, Fred VanVleet Cleared For Return Wednesday
Toronto Raptors power forward/center Pascal Siakam, point/shooting guard Fred VanVleet, shooting guard/small forward Patrick McCaw and point guard Malachi Flynn have all been given the green light to return to action Wednesday against the Pistons after clearing the league's health and safety protocols. Siakam has missed Toronto's past six games, while VanVleet has been on […]
Jeremy Lamb Ruled Out Wednesday
Indiana Pacers guard Jeremy Lamb (knee) has been ruled out Wednesday against the Nets. Lamb was listed as questionable but will be sidelined for the third straight game with knee soreness. His absence should mean more chances for Justin Holiday and Aaron Holiday, as well as Caris Levert, who just returned from injury. Fantasy investors […]
Danuel House Jr., Ben McLemore Questionable For Wednesday
Houston Rockets forward Danuel House Jr. (knee) and guard Ben McLemore (ankle) are listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Golden State Warriors. House has missed five straight games, so another absence wouldn't be shocking. Jae'sean Tate and Kevin Porter Jr. would benefit the most, assuming House is out again. McLemore missed Tuesday's game, […]
Terrence Ross Questionable Versus Knicks
Orlando Magic guard Terrence Ross (knee) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the New York Knicks. Losing Ross would be a shame considering he has dropped 59 points combined over his last two games. His absence would mean significant minutes for Dwayne Bacon and Michael Carter-Williams. Neither of them are reliable enough to […]
Anthony Edwards Stays Hot In Loss To Lakers
Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards kept up his recent stretch of excellent play in a 137-121 loss to the Lakers on Tuesday. Edwards scored 29 points with four rebounds, three triples, an assist, and a steal in 38 minutes. The rookie has been taking on a huge offensive load over the last seven games, hoisting […]
Gary Trent Jr. Drops 22 Points With Three Treys
Portland Trail Blazers guard Gary Trent Jr. had another strong game in Tuesday's win over the Pelicans. Trent scored 22 points with three rebounds, three triples, two steals, and an assist in 32 minutes. He technically came off the bench with C.J. McCollum back in the lineup, though he remained active, given that the latter […]
Jaylen Brown Pours In 28 Points
Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown finished with 28 points, five rebounds, seven assists, one block, and two steals in 39 minutes during Tuesday's loss to Utah. Brown now has at least 24 points in the past two games and has overall been as consistent as they come in terms of daily production this season. The […]
C.J. McCollum Will Be On A Minutes Limit Tuesday
Portland Trail Blazers guard C.J. McCollum (foot) will be on a minutes limit Tuesday against the New Orleans Pelicans. Head coach Terry Stotts did note it will not be a "hard" minutes restriction, but McCollum won't hit his normal 34 minutes per game average. With McCollum back, Gary Trent Jr. should see a huge hit […]
Wayne Ellington Doubtful Wednesday
Detroit Pistons guard Wayne Ellington (groin) is listed as doubtful for Wednesday's matchup with the Raptors. Ellington missed Monday's game, with head coach Dwane Casey saying that he didn't expect it to be a long absence. Should the 33-year-old be forced to sit out once again, Josh Jackson could be in line for some big […]
Jeremy Lamb Questionable Against Brooklyn On Wednesday
Indiana Pacers guard Jeremy Lamb (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Nets. Lamb has missed the last two contests with the knee ailment, though he at least has a chance of taking the court for a matchup against one of the East's best. Doug McDermott should again benefit from added opportunities, as should […]
Pascal Siakam, Fred VanVleet Cleared To Practice
Toronto Raptors forward Pascal Siakam and guard Fred VanVleet have been cleared to practice Tuesday after being in the league's COVID-19 health and safety protocols. Malachi Flynn and Patrick McCaw have also been cleared to return. This is big news for a Raptors team that has struggled in the absence of these key contributors. Siakam is listed […]
Tyler Herro Probable For Tuesday
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (shoulder) is listed as probable for Tuesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He is dealing with a strained right shoulder, but should be able to play through the issue. Herro dropped 22 points and eight rebounds during his last outing. It sounds like he should be fine for this favorable […]
