Tyler Herro Could Return On Friday
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (neck) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He has missed each of the last three games due to neck spasms. Herro was able to go through practice on Thursday without any issues, so hopefully he can play on Friday. Otherwise, Goran Dragic would continue seeing […]

Kelly Oubre Jr. Records Solid Line In Victory Over Spurs
Golden State Warriors guard Kelly Oubre Jr. had a solid outing in Wednesday's blowout win over San Antonio. Oubre compiled 16 points, nine rebounds, two triples, two steals, and a block in 31 minutes. The 25-year-old impressively didn't have a single turnover-which helped to mask his poor shooting from the field for managers in category […]
Victor Oladipo Posts Solid Line Against Suns
Houston Rockets shooting guard Victor Oladipo had a solid all-around game in Wednesday night's loss to the Phoenix Suns. He scored 22 points to go along with six assists, five rebounds, three steals and a block. He hit 7-for-7 from the line, but struggled from the field, going 7-for-22.

Evan Fournier Returns To Action With 24-Point Effort
Orlando Magic shooting guard Evan Fournier ended a nine-game absence on Wednesday, recording 24 points in just 28 minutes against Minnesota. However, he did it with some very poor shooting, as he went 2-for-9 from downtown and 9-for-21 overall from the field. Fournier had a pair of steals on the defensive end but didn't do […]
Fred VanVleet Nets 24 Points, Continues To Struggle With Shot
Toronto Raptors guard Fred Vanvleet scored 24 points, but his efficiency struggles continued in a 111-102 loss to the Heat. VanVleet shot just 38.9 percent from the field, though he did make up for it to some extent by making 7 of 8 foul shots and dishing out nine assists. Still, the 26-year-old is in […]

Tyler Herro Remains Out Wednesday
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (neck) will not play Wednesday against the Toronto Raptors. Herro will miss his second straight game with neck spasms after not playing the second half of Saturday's loss to the Detroit Pistons. The Heat are starting a four-game road trip and Herro is still with the team which bodes well […]
Collin Sexton Starting Wednesday, Darius Garland Still Out
The Cleveland Cavaliers will get guard Collin Sexton (ankle) back after an extended absence, but are still without guard Darius Garland (shoulder), who is out Wednesday against the Brooklyn Nets. Sexton missed the past five games but was very close to returning, and the Cavs had their past two games postponed, so the return could […]
Myles Turner Out, Jeremy Lamb In Wednesday
Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (hand) will not play against the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday, but guard/forward Jeremy Lamb (knee) will be making his season debut. Turner's absence will push Domantas Sabonis over to the five and allow Doug McDermott to get more run in the starting lineup. It is yet to be seen if […]
Cam Reddish, De'Andre Hunter Both Out Wednesday
Atlanta Hawks guards/forwards Cam Reddish (knee) and De'Andre Hunter (knee) will not suit up Wednesday against the Detroit Pistons. Both players were game-time decisions ahead of the contest before being downgraded to doubtful and then out before tip-off. The Hawks will be extremely thin on the wing with Danilo Gallinari (ankle) and Bogdan Bogdanovic (knee) […]
Lou Williams Could Miss Wednesday's Game
Los Angeles Clippers guard Lou Williams (hip) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. The veteran shooter has been out basically a week due to left hip discomfort. Reggie Jackson would see more playing time coming his way, assuming Williams is out. However, Luke Kennard is the safer fantasy option regardless […]
Evan Fournier Finally Returns To The Lineup
Orlando Magic guard Evan Fournier (back) will play in Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. This will be his first game action since late December, so expect Fournier to be somewhat limited. The Magic are desperate for a playmaker after Markelle Fultz (knee) went down. Fournier's return will mean less playing time for Dwayne Bacon […]
Seth Curry Ruled Out On Wednesday
Philadelphia 76ers guard Seth Curry has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Boston Celtics due to COVID-19. He was cleared from the NBA's health and safety protocols but won't play on Wednesday. The veteran shooter hasn't played in two weeks, so the Sixers want him to get up his conditioning before getting back into […]
Sterling Brown Available On Wednesday
Houston Rockets guard Sterling Brown (leg) is available for Wednesday's game against the Phoenix Suns. He has missed each of the last two games due to a leg issue. Brown was playing well for the shorthanded Rockets before getting injured. However, newly acquired Victor Oladipo is sliding into the rotation now. Brown is expected to […]
Donovan Mitchell Scores Very Efficient 28 Points
Utah Jazz shooting guard Donovan Mitchell was hot in Tuesday's win over New Orleans, shooting 9-for-15 from the field and 4-for-7 from downtown en route to a team-high 28 points. He was also perfect at the line with a 6-for-6 effort, adding seven rebounds and four assists. Mitchell was on fire offensively, but his line […]
Luguentz Dort Knocks Down Trio Of Triples In Defeat
Oklahoma City Thunder shooting guard/small forward Luguentz Dort did not enter his second NBA campaign with the reputation of being a long-range marksman, but after knocking down three triples in Tuesday's loss to the Nuggets, his continued stroke from long range has become undeniable. Dort went for a team-high 20 points in defeat, but his […]
Evan Fournier Listed As Questionable Wednesday
Orlando Magic guard/forward Evan Fournier (back) is listed as questionable Wednesday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Fournier participated in a non-contact practice Tuesday, but head coach Steve Clifford stated the players' participation does not necessarily mean they are slated to return. It is looking more like another absence for Fournier unless he can heal overnight. Dwayne […]
Joel Embiid And Seth Curry Not On Injury Report For Wednesday
The Philadelphia 76ers do not have either center Joel Embiid (knee) or guard Seth Curry listed on the injury report ahead of Wednesday's game against the Boston Celtics. Embiid missed the past two games with knee soreness but is expected to play after the absences were reportedly just a precaution. Curry, on the other hand, has […]
Jeremy Lamb Listed As Questionable Wednesday
Indiana Pacers guard/forward Jeremy Lamb (knee) is listed as questionable Wednesday against the Dallas Mavericks. Lamb tore his ACL back in February 2020, but has been fully practicing for a couple weeks now and could make his season debut Wednesday. The Pacers are without T.J. Warren (foot) and Caris Levert (kidney) indefinitely so Lamb would […]
Kendrick Nunn Scores 18 Points With Productive Line
Miami Heat guard Kendrick Nunn had his best game of the year in a 113-107 win over the Pistons. Nunn scored a season-high 18 points with five rebounds, three assists, two triples, two steals, and a block in 34 minutes.

Harden scored 34 points with 12 assists, six boards, three triples and a block in 41 minutes. He became the first player in NBA history to record at least 30 […]
Devin Booker Has Awful Game Against Memphis
Phoenix Suns shooting guard Devin Booker shot a horrible 5-for-21 from the field and finished with a 12-point dud in Monday's loss to Memphis. Booker opened the scoring in the game but then had to wait for the final minutes of the opening half to add to his tally. He was 2-for-6 from downtown in […]
Philadelphia Releases Dakota Mathias
The Philadelphia 76ers have moved on from point/shooting guard Dakota Mathias, waiving him Monday. Mathias appeared in eight games with the Sixers this season, including two starts in which he had massive minutes allotments while the team dealt with contact tracing issues. Having been on a two-way contract, Mathias' release indicates that the team could […]
Josh Richardson Remains Without Timetable To Return
Dallas Mavericks shooting guard/small forward Josh Richardson has cleared quarantine under the league's COVID-19 protocols, but he does not yet have an update as to when he could return to action, per head coach Rick Carlisle.

C.J. McCollum Facing One-Week Absence
Portland Trail Blazers shooting guard C.J. McCollum (foot) has been ruled out for at least the next week due to a sprained left foot that he sustained Saturday. Head coach Terry Stotts said prior to Monday's game that the team would re-evaluate McCollum in a week, meaning that he'll miss at least the next four […]
Sterling Brown Ruled Out For Monday’s Game
Houston Rockets shooting guard/small forward Sterling Brown (leg) has been deemed unavailable for Monday's contest versus the Bulls due to a leg injury. His absence has left the Rockets' backcourt and wing thinner than anticipated, as John Wall (knee) and Danuel House Jr. (health protocols) have been ruled out as well. Despite an uptick in […]
Wizards-Hornets Contest Postponed Wednesday
The Washington Wizards and Charlotte Hornets matchup that was set to take place Wednesday has been postponed due to new positive COVID-19 tests among the Wizards' roster. The team has now had seven players test positive for the virus, which has kept them off the floor for the past week. It's unclear when Washington could […]
Tim Hardaway Jr. Gets Green Light To Suit Up Monday
Dallas Mavericks shooting guard/small forward Tim Hardaway Jr. (groin) has been cleared to play in Monday's contest versus Toronto despite battling a strained left groin that caused a one-game absence. As the Mavericks continue to be short-handed on the wing due to the league's health and safety protocols, Hardaway should see an increased offensive workload. […]
