Josh Richardson is Out Next Two Games
Miami Heat guard/forward Josh Richardson (heel) has been ruled out for the next two games. He will not play in Saturday's contest or Monday versus the Celtics. Surprisingly, Duncan Robinson saw the biggest increase in playing time without Richardson in the lineup. Dion Waiters and James Johnson should see more minutes as well.
Zach LaVine Won't Play on Saturday
Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (thigh) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Toronto Raptors. This is not a surprising announcement since LaVine was listed as doubtful on Friday. This marks his fifth straight game sidelined and there's a good chance he's done for the season with the Bulls tanking. The Bulls will […]
Josh Jackson Will Play Saturday
Phoenix Suns guard/forward Josh Jackson (ankle) will return to action against the Memphis Grizzlies on Saturday. Head coach Igor Kokoskov said Jackson practice on Friday and is expected to play on Saturday. Dragan Bender has been starting in place of Jackson, so he'll likely lose minutes and head to the bench.
Patrick McCaw Out Three Games
Toronto Raptors guard Patrick McCaw (thumb) will miss the next three weeks of action after suffering a sprained right thumb. There is a chance that McCaw could miss even more time than that. Fantasy owners can go ahead and drop McCaw, but he didn't offer much in terms of fantasy production. Norman Powell will see […]
Rajon Rondo Hands Out 17 Assists and Gets Five Steals
Los Angeles Lakers guard Rajon Rondo did an excellent job setting up teammates in the 129-115 win over the Hornets on Friday.

Reggie Bullock is Questionable for Friday
Los Angeles Lakers guard/forward Reggie Bullock (foot) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. He's been listed as questionable for the last two games with a right foot issue and hasn't played. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Lance Stephenson would see more minutes without Bullock in the rotation.
Brandon Knight Logs Season-High 32 Minutes
Cleveland Cavaliers point/shooting guard Brandon Knight saw his minutes total jump back up during Thursday’s loss to the San Antonio Spurs. Knight’s 14-point effort came on a 6-for-9 shooting performance, which won’t make owners rush to the wire to claim him, but what serves as a positive sign moving forward are the season-high 32 minutes […]
Bryn Forbes Packs Stat Sheet During Victory
San Antonio Spurs point/shooting guard Bryn Forbes logged 19 points, six rebounds, four assists and three steals during Thursday’s win over the Cleveland Cavaliers, contributing all over the box score.

Buddy Hield Racks Up 27 Points Despite Off Night From Deep

Will Barton Disappears In Loss To The Rockets
Denver Nuggets shooting guard/small forward Will Barton was nowhere to be found in the rough loss to the Rockets on Thursday. Barton connected on just 1-for-6 shooting to score just two points while adding four dimes with a rebound in 29 minutes. Barton is tough to hold onto at the moment because if he is […]

Houston Rockets guard James Harden poured in 38 points on 10 of 22 shooting from the floor to help secure the easy win over the Nuggets. Harden connected on 13 of 14 shooting from the line and added six boards with six dimes with a steal and block while draining five makes from range. Harden […]

In the last five games, Redick has been productive, […]
Jeremy Lamb is Probable for Friday
Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Jeremy Lamb (ankle) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Lamb exited early during Tuesday's game due to a right ankle sprain, but appears well enough to play on Friday. Fantasy owners should check back on Friday for another update on his status.
Landry Shamet Will Play on Thursday
Los Angeles Clippers guard Landry Shamet (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. He missed one game due to a left ankle issue, but appears fine now. He's not really going to be a fantasy option most nights, but Patrick Beverley (hip) is sitting out, so maybe Shamet gets a […]
Josh Richardson Listed as Out on Thursday
Miami Heat guard/forward Josh Richardson (heel) is listed as out for Thursday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. The Heat are 0.5 games out of the No. 8 seed, so now is not the time to lose Richardson. Goran Dragic should benefit the most in the absence of Richardson. Dwyane Wade and Dion Waiters will see […]
