David Nwaba Returns To Starting Lineup Monday
Houston Rockets shooting guard David Nwaba will draw the start for Monday's contest versus the Mavericks with Danuel House Jr. (back) unavailable. In both of Nwaba's prior starts this season, he got up double-digit shot attempts, which bodes well for his DFS intrigue. How much Ben McLemore plays in his potential season debut could put […]
LeBron James, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope Questionable Tuesday
Los Angeles Lakers point guard/small forward LeBron James (ankle) and shooting guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (ankle) have once again earned questionable designations for Tuesday's contest against the Grizzlies. James has consistently earned a questionable tag since spraining his ankle over a week ago, but has shown no signs of missing time. Caldwell-Pope on the other hand […]
Kevin Huerter, Rajon Rondo Cleared To Play In Monday’s Game
Atlanta Hawks shooting guard Kevin Huerter (ankle) and point guard Rajon Rondo (knee) have been given the thumbs up to take the floor for Monday's contest against the Knicks after having been deemed questionable throughout the day.

Avery Bradley Cleared To Play In Monday’s Contest
Miami Heat shooting guard Avery Bradley (illness) has received the thumbs up to play in Monday's game versus the Thunder while battling a stomach illness.

Alec Burks, Dennis Smith Jr. Headline Monday’s Inactives
The New York Knicks will once again be without shooting guard Alec Burks (ankle) and point guard Dennis Smith Jr. (quad) for Monday's game against the Hawks. Burks and Smith lead a group that also includes Frank Ntilikina (knee), Obi Toppin (calf), and Omari Spellman (knee) on the sidelines. Without Burks, expect Reggie Bullock and […]
Evan Fournier, James Ennis Will Miss Monday’s Game
Orlando Magic shooting guard Evan Fournier (back) and small forward James Ennis (hamstring) have been deemed unavailable to suit up for Monday's contest against the Cavaliers. With the duo once again absent from the starting five, Michael Carter-Williams and Dwayne Bacon will remain among the group, although their fantasy intrigue is capped by their respective […]
Darius Garland, Isaac Okoro Sidelined For Monday’s Game
Cleveland Cavaliers point/shooting guard Darius Garland (shoulder) and small forward Isaac Okoro (foot) have been ruled out for Monday's contest versus the Magic. Garland's absence will be his first of the year, allowing Damyean Dotson to enter the starting five in his place. Collin Sexton figures to take on an even larger offensive workload without […]
Marcus Smart Ruled Out For Monday’s Contest
Boston Celtics point/shooting guard Marcus Smart (thumb) will miss Monday's game versus the Raptors due to a sprained right thumb. With Jeff Teague (ankle) also sidelined, Payton Pritchard is in line to see a considerable workload, with Jaylen Brown also likely to see extended ball-handling opportunities, giving both added DFS upside. Smart has gotten off […]
Pat Connaughton Will Miss First Game Of Season Monday
Milwaukee Bucks shooting guard/small forward Pat Connaughton (groin) has been ruled out for Monday's contest versus the Pistons, which will mark his first absence of the year. Connaughton has served as a consistent bench contributor for Milwaukee, averaging 6.3 points per game while shooting 50 percent from deep. His absence is likely to funnel additional […]

Miami Heat shooting guard Avery Bradley (illness) remains questionable to play in Monday's contest versus the Thunder as he battles a stomach illness. Bradley has gotten off to a hot start offensively to begin the year, shooting 57.1 percent overall en route to averaging 14.3 points through his first four contests. His absence from the […]
James Harden Receives Green Light To Play Monday
Houston Rockets point/shooting guard James Harden (ankle) will suit up for Monday's contest against the Mavericks. Harden had earned a questionable designation after missing the team's most recent game. With Harden back on the floor, John Wall, Eric Gordon, and other key offensive cogs for Houston will revert back to their traditional fantasy appeal, as […]
Darius Garland, Isaac Okoro Questionable To Suit Up Monday
Cleveland Cavaliers point/shooting guard Darius Garland (shoulder) and small forward Isaac Okoro (foot) are both questionable to participate in Monday's contest versus the Magic. Garland has shown signs of breaking out during his second season, averaging 17.2 points and 6.3 assists per contest over his first six games. Any absence would pave the way for […]
Marcus Smart Up In The Air For Monday's Game
Boston Celtics point/shooting guard Marcus Smart (thumb) is deemed questionable to play in Monday's game versus the Raptors as he battles a sprained thumb on his shooting hand. Smart has begun the season dishing out a career-best 6.7 assists per game as he has served as Boston's primary distributor with Kemba Walker (knee) unavailable. Smart's […]
Zach LaVine Has Huge Game Against Mavs
Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine scored 39 points on 14-for-25 shooting in Sunday's win over the Dallas Mavericks. He was 3-for-9 from three and also added six rebounds, five assists, and three steals. LaVine is averaging 24.6 points on the season despite a career-low 30.2 percent shooting mark from three. Once he gets that figured […]
Jordan Clarkson Has Best Shooting Night Of Season
Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson scored 18 points on Sunday, converting on 61.5 percent of his shots and adding in two three-pointers. He also had three rebounds, three assists, and two steals. Clarkson's scoring, threes, and steals make him a nice value option for fantasy managers right now, and he should be in line for […]
Malik Beasley Shines Against Former Team
Minnesota Timberwolves shooting guard Malik Beasley had a classic revenge game against the Nuggets on Sunday, scoring a season-high 25 points on 10-for-16 shooting against the team that traded him 11 months ago. He went 3-for-5 from downtown and added seven rebounds, five assists, two steals, and two blocks to polish off a big fantasy […]
Jaylen Brown Stays Hot With 31-Point Effort
Boston Celtics shooting guard Jaylen Brown continued his good scoring streak with a 31-point performance on Sunday against Detroit, missing only three of his 16 shots in a 122-120 win. Sadly he had six turnovers and didn't do much else, but another 30-plus point outing was very nice to see. Brown has now shot 60 […]
Luka Doncic Will Not Play Versus Chicago
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (quad) has been ruled out Sunday against the Chicago Bulls. Doncic, who was doubtful coming into the contest, must have picked up the injury in the win over the Miami Heat on Friday. However, this is the first leg of a back-to-back and could be a rest day for Doncic. […]
Evan Fournier Held Out Of Sunday's Practice
Orlando Magic guard Evan Fournier (back) was unable to practice on Sunday, according to head coach Steve Clifford. The veteran guard was held out of Saturday's contest due to back spasms. It appears he is not fully recovered and is listed as questionable on the injury report. Michael Carter-Williams would remain in the starting five, […]
Avery Bradley Unable To Practice On Sunday
Miami Heat guard Avery Bradley (rest) was unavailable for Sunday's practice due to the league's safety and health protocols. This is concerning news since the next game is on Monday for Miami. Despite not practicing, the Heat have not ruled out Bradley for their next contest. Regardless, Bradley doesn't offer consistent fantasy value with Jimmy […]
James Ennis Might Play On Monday
Orlando Magic guard James Ennis (hamstring) has been listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He is dealing with a lingering hamstring issue, but continues to make progress. Ennis will likely be eased back into the rotation once he's cleared to play. Dwayne Bacon would see less playing time once Ennis is […]
James Harden Could Sit Out On Monday
Houston Rockets guard James Harden (ankle) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. The veteran guard was a late scratch ahead of Saturday's win over the Sacramento Kings. John Wall and Eric Gordon would gain the most fantasy value, assuming Harden is sidelined again. Fantasy managers should check back for an […]
Collin Sexton Drops Game-High 27 Points In Victory
Cleveland Cavaliers point/shooting guard Collin Sexton poured in a game-high 27 points during Saturday's win over Atlanta, marking his sixth straight contest passing the 20-point plateau to begin the year. In what has been a small sample size thus far, Sexton has embraced the role of No. 1 scoring option for the Cavs and has […]
Terry Rozier Lights Up 76ers, Goes For 35 Points
Charlotte Hornets point/shooting guard Terry Rozier rebounded with a strong offensive performance during Saturday's loss to Philadelphia, going for 35 points on 12-for-18 shooting overall, including 7-for-11 from behind the arc.

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Puts Together 16-5-7 Line
Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander struggled with his shot in Saturday's win over Orlando, but he posted another nice all-around line with 16 points, seven assists, and five rebounds while committing only one turnover. He went only 5-for-17 from the field with an ugly 2-for-9 record from downtown, and that's now two games on […]
Fred VanVleet Scores Inefficient 27 Points
Toronto Raptors guard Fred Vanvleet scored 27 points in a loss to the Pelicans, though he struggled with his shot. VanVleet shot just 9 of 23 from the field, his third outing of the season shooting below 40 percent from the field. Despite the struggles with efficiency, the 26-year-old has seen a slight uptick in […]
Derrick White Out, LaMarcus Aldridge Questionable On Sunday
San Antonio Spurs guard Derrick White (toe) is listed as out Sunday against the Utah Jazz after making his season debut on Friday while forward/center LaMarcus Aldridge (knee) is questionable. The injury report lists White with a sprained left toe which is the same foot he had surgery on. For now, there are no reports […]
Alec Burks Unavailable For Saturday’s Contest
New York Knicks shooting guard Alec Burks (ankle) has been given the thumbs down to suiting up for Saturday's contest versus the Pacers. Burks will remain day-to-day moving forward, but look for Reggie Bullock to continue reprising a significant offensive role on the wing in his absence. There should be more shot opportunities within the […]
Evan Fournier Ruled Out For Saturday’s Game
Orlando Magic shooting guard/small forward Evan Fournier (back) will miss Saturday's contest versus Oklahoma City as he continues to deal with back spasms. Michael Carter-Williams will enter the starting five in his stead and should see increased DFS appeal. Terence Ross and Cole Anthony also could have some upside without Fournier in the mix, as […]
Josh Okogie Will Miss Fourth Straight Game
Minnesota Timberwolves guard Josh Okogie (hamstring) will miss his fourth game in a row on Sunday. He continues to deal with a lingering hamstring issue, so it's unclear when he'll get back on the court. Jarrett Culver and Anthony Edwards have seen more playing time in the absence of Okogie. Edwards is the better fantasy […]
