Wayne Selden is Probable for Wednesday
Chicago Bulls guard/forward Wayne Selden (knee) is listed as probable for Wednesday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Selden is dealing with left knee soreness, but was able to fully practice on Tuesday. Selden has been hit-or-miss, so DFS players probably shouldn't take the risk. He's not really worth owning in most formats right now.
Reggie Bullock Won't Play on Thursday
Los Angeles Lakers guard/forward Reggie Bullock will not be available for Thursday's game against the Boston Celtics. Bullock was traded to the Lakers from the Pistons, but will go through a post-trade physical on Wednesday. He should be ready to make his debut for the Lakers on Sunday. Bullock won't do enough to warrant owning in […]
Allen Crabbe is Available on Wednesday
Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Allen Crabbe (knee) is available for Wednesday's game against the Denver Nuggets. Crabbe has been sidelined the last two months due to a right knee issue. The Nets are likely going to ease him back into action, so fantasy owners shouldn't expect much from Crabbe. Rodions Kurucs and Shabazz Napier have taken […]
Terrence Ross Goes For Team-High 26 Points Off Bench
Orlando Magic shooting guard/small forward Terrence Ross went off for a team-best 26 points off the bench during Tuesday’s loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Evan Fournier Drops 25 Points In Defeat
Orlando Magic shooting guard Evan Fournier was locked in offensively during Tuesday’s loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder, finishing with 25 points on 8-for-16 shooting, while adding five rebounds and five assists before eventually fouling out.

Jaylen Brown Fires Up Season-High 19 Shots In Start
Boston Celtics shooting guard/small forward Jaylen Brown entered the starting lineup for Monday’s win over the Cleveland Cavaliers in place of the injured Marcus Morris and took the offensive initiative, jacking up a season-high 19 shot attempts.

Jordan Clarkson Goes Ice-Cold During Defeat
Cleveland Cavaliers point/shooting guard Jordan Clarkson couldn’t get into rhythm from the field during Tuesday’s loss to the Boston Celtics, finishing 2-for-13 overall, including 1-for-7 from three-point range. Clarkson figures to continue seeing his usual volume of offensive looks with Rodney Hood having been dealt to Portland, so owners can chalk up his performance versus […]
Landry Shamet Acquired By Clippers
Point/shooting guard Landry Shamet was the key piece snagged by the Los Angeles Clippers in a deal that sent Tobias Harris to the Philadelphia 76ers, which was first reported by Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN. Shamet will be joined by Wilson Chandler and Mike Muscala out in LA, leaving a likely playoff-bound Sixers club for a […]
Lou Williams Goes For 31 Points Versus Charlotte
Los Angeles Clippers guard Lou Williams cooked up another impressive scoring display on Tuesday, notching 31 points in 32 minutes against Charlotte.

Dwyane Wade Has Big Night Tuesday
Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade had a big game against the Blazers on Tuesday with 22 points, nine rebounds and three assists. It was vintage D-Wade, much closer to his career numbers of 22.1 points, 4.3 assists and 3.7 rebounds. His season numbers of 12.3 points, 4.3 assists and 3.7 rebounds only make him an […]
C.J. McCollum Leads Blazers
Portland Trail Blazers guard C.J. McCollum had a team-high 33 points against the Heat on Tuesday, also contributing two assists and five rebounds. He was 13-for-25 from the field and 7-for-14 from the three-point line. He is a very good source for points and will have another good performance Thursday against the Spurs.
Bojan Bogdanovic Leads All Scorers With 24 Points Tuesday
Coming off a 33.3 percent shooting night Monday, Indiana Pacers guard/forward Bojan Bogdanovic shot much better in the blowout win over the Los Angeles Lakers Tuesday. Bogdanovic scored a game-high 24 points on 10-for-17 shooting while adding five assists and four three-pointers in 32 minutes. Bogdanovic uncharacteristically committed five turnovers in the win, but this […]
DeMar DeRozan Will Rest On Wednesday
San Antonio Spurs shooting guard/small forward DeMar DeRozan will join teammate LaMarcus Aldridge on the bench Wednesday versus the Golden State Warriors, taking the night off due to load management. It appears DeRozan isn’t suffering from any physical ailments, which should mean he’s a clear go for Thursday’s showdown with the Portland Trail Blazers. In […]
E'Twaun Moore Won't Return Wednesday
New Orleans Pelicans shooting guard/small forward E'Twaun Moore will miss his fifth straight game Wednesday against the Chicago Bulls due to a left quad contusion. New Orleans has fluctuated on Moore’s injury status over the past week, but no matter what is keeping him out, the Pelicans remain short-handed on the wing without Moore’s contributions. […]
Gary Harris Won't Play On Wednesday
Denver Nuggets shooting guard Gary Harris will be unable to play in Wednesday’s game versus the Brooklyn Nets due to a right adductor strain. Ruled out so far in advance of tip certainly doesn’t bode well for Harris moving forward, especially as Malik Beasley has shone during his time in the starting five in place […]
Joe Harris Set To Play In Wednesday’s Game
Brooklyn Nets shooting guard/small forward Joe Harris is set to suit up versus the Denver Nuggets come Wednesday, shaking off right hip soreness that kept him out Monday. Harris will likely reclaim his spot in the starting five, which should push Shabazz Napier -- who went 0-for-10 from three in his start -- back to […]
Eric Gordon Picks Up Questionable Tag For Wednesday
Houston Rockets shooting guard Eric Gordon is listed as questionable to play in Wednesday’s game against the Sacramento Kings due to right knee soreness. The injury kept him in street clothes Monday versus Phoenix with James Ennis entering the starting five, which would likely be the case again if Gordon cannot go Wednesday. Gordon may […]
Jamal Murray Questionable To Make Return Wednesday
Denver Nuggets point/shooting guard Jamal Murray is listed as questionable for Wednesday’s match-up versus the Brooklyn Nets due to a left ankle sprain that has kept him out for the previous six games. Should Murray continue to sit out, Monte Morris will have immense fantasy value. Just how quickly Murray is reintegrated into the Denver […]
Devin Booker Should Be Fine for Wednesday
Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (hamstring) says he felt fine after Monday's game and believes he can play in Wednesday's contest versus the Utah Jazz. Booker left in the fourth quarter of Monday's game against the Rockets due to a right hamstring issue. It doesn't appear the issue was anything serious, so Booker should be […]
Allen Crabbe is Expected to Play on Wednesday
Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Allen Crabbe (knee) was able to fully practice on Tuesday and is expected to play in Wednesday's game against the Denver Nuggets, according to head coach Kenny Atkinson. Crabbe has been out since December 12 due to right knee soreness, but is finally on track to return. However, the Nets are crowded […]
Jonathon Simmons is Doubtful for Tuesday
Orlando Magic guard/forward Jonathon Simmons (abdominal) is doubtful for Tuesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder, according to head coach Steve Clifford. He's missed each of the last two games and now has been downgraded to doubtful for this one. Fantasy owners should prepare to be without Simmons once again.
D'Angelo Russell Held In Check During Loss
Brooklyn Nets point/shooting guard D'Angelo Russell finished with 18 points on 7-for-20 shooting during Monday’s defeat against the Milwaukee Bucks. The outing marks just the second time in the past nine games that Russell has been kept under 20 points, having seen his offensive role expand with Spencer Dinwiddie in street clothes. Monday’s performance can […]
Khris Middleton Relatively Quiet In Shortened Outing
Milwaukee Bucks shooting guard/small forward Khris Middleton was limited to just 25 minutes during Monday’s convincing victory over the Brooklyn Nets, compiling 12 points, eight rebounds and four assists. The performance had him finish in double figures for the 19th straight game, but remains quiet by the standards of the first-time All-Star. Middleton continues to […]
Shabazz Napier Goes Ice-Cold From Deep During Start
Brooklyn Nets point/shooting guard Shabazz Napier entered the starting lineup for Monday’s contest versus the Milwaukee Bucks due to an injury to Joe Harris and finished with 15 points despite going 0-for-10 from three-point range. It wasn’t just Napier, as Brooklyn as a squad went a combined 5-for-42 (11.9 percent) from deep. For owners who […]
Jrue Holiday Narrowly Misses Triple-Double During Defeat
New Orleans Pelicans point/shooting guard Jrue Holiday came just an assist shy of converting his first triple-double of the season Monday against the Indiana Pacers. Holiday, who is likely to become the new face of the New Orleans franchise amidst rumors of Anthony Davis’ departure, attempted to lead the offense Monday, shooting 6-for-15 from the […]
DeMar DeRozan Scores 24 Points In Losing Effort
San Antonio Spurs shooting guard DeMar DeRozan had a good 24-point outing on Monday against Sacramento, but he was unable to help the team stretch their winning streak to six games. He shot 10-for-15 from the field and 4-for-6 from the line, while grabbing four rebounds and dishing out four assists. DeRozan picked up one […]
Buddy Hield Settles For 18 Points On Monday
Sacramento Kings shooting guard Buddy Hield, who had 34 points against the Sixers at the weekend, couldn't kick off the new week in the same fashion, managing only 18 points in 35 minutes against San Antonio. He was decent from downtown with a 3-for-8 record but shot a poor 5-for-12 overall. Hield finished things off […]
James Harden Drops 44 Points On Suns
Houston Rockets guard James Harden continued to roll on Monday, scoring 44 points in a 118-110 win over Phoenix. He shot 15-for-26 from the field, 5-for-13 from downtown and 9-for-11 from the line in what's his 20th game of the season with 40-plus points. Harden joined Wilt Chamberlain, Michael Jordan, and Rick Barry as the […]
Jonathon Simmons is Questionable for Tuesday
Orlando Magic guard/forward Jonathon Simmons (abdominal) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. It appears that Simmons is likely to miss another game due to this abdominal strain. Wes Iwundu should see more minutes coming his way if Simmons is out.
Doug McDermott Out Next Two Games
Indiana Pacers guard/forward Doug McDermott (ribs) will miss the next two games after bruising his ribs. McDermott will sit out versus the Pelicans on Monday and the Lakers on Tuesday. He's not a huge part of the rotation, but Bojan Bogdanovic will play heavy minutes without McDermott in the lineup.
