DeMarre Carroll, Joe Harris Probable on Wednesday
Brooklyn Nets forward DeMarre Carroll (knee) and guard/forward Joe Harris (ankle) are listed as probable for Wednesday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. Both players are reportedly feeling better and are expected to play on Wednesday. Shabazz Napier and Rodions Kurucs will take a hit in value and minutes with Carroll and Harris likely returning.
Jimmy Butler is Expected to Play on Tuesday
Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Jimmy Butler (illness) is expected to play in Tuesday's game against the Washington Wizards. Butler has missed the last two games due to an illness, but looked good during Monday's practice. Landry Shamet and Furkan Korkmaz will see reduced playing time with Butler back in the rotation.
Kevin Huerter is Downgraded to Questionable
Atlanta Hawks guard/forward Kevin Huerter (calf) has been downgraded to questionable for Tuesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He was listed as probable on Monday with a left calf strain. However, it appears this injury is fairly serious and the Hawks may want to rest Huerter for this one. DeAndre' Bembry and Justin Anderson would […]
Gary Harris is Questionable for Tuesday
Denver Nuggets guard Gary Harris (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Miami Heat. He did not play in the fourth quarter of Monday's game after pulling his hamstring. It would not be surprising to see the Nuggets play it safe and rest Harris on Tuesday. Malik Beasley would see increased playing […]
Devin Booker is Likely Out on Tuesday
Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (back) is most likely going to sit out of Tuesday's game versus the Sacramento Kings, according to head coach Igor Kokoskov. Booker did not play on Sunday due to back spasms. He missed Monday's practice and did not participate in shootaround on Tuesday. Josh Jackson would join the starting five […]
Iman Shumpert Ruled Out on Tuesday
Sacramento Kings guard/forward Iman Shumpert (finger) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Phoenix Suns. This will be the third straight game that Shumpert has missed due to a finger issue. Bogdan Bogdanovic has started the last three games and been fantastic. He's worth using in DFS contests on Tuesday.
Jeremy Lamb Will Play on Tuesday
Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Jeremy Lamb (hamstring) will play in Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. Lamb went through shootaround and reportedly felt good afterwards. Devonte' Graham will head back to the second unit and lose basically all fantasy value. Fantasy owners should feel safe plugging Lamb in your lineups on Tuesday.

Los Angeles Lakers shooting guard Josh Hart took full advantage of his 44 minutes of run during Monday’s win against the Dallas Mavericks, finishing with 14 points, 12 rebounds, six assists and a career-high five steals.

Brandon Ingram Drops Season-High 29 Points
Los Angeles Lakers shooting guard/small forward Brandon Ingram went off for a new season high of 29 points during Monday’s victory over the Dallas Mavericks. As has been the case with LeBron James sidelined, Ingram took the offensive initiative, finishing 12-for-21 from the field overall, with all of his shots coming inside the arc. He […]
C.J. McCollum Has 17 Points Against Knicks
Portland Trail Blazers shooting guard C.J. McCollum shot 7-for-17 from the field on his way to finishing with 17 points on Monday against the Knicks. He had a very tough time from downtown, sinking just two of his seven triples. McCollum finished off his fantasy line with three rebounds, two assists, one steal, and one […]
Jrue Holiday Ties Season High With Four Steals
New Orleans Pelicans point/shooting guard Jrue Holiday was relatively held in check by the Memphis Grizzlies during Monday’s win, but he did record four steals, tying his season high and giving him 1.7 per game on the year, which would become a new career best. Holiday logged 13 points, six assists and four rebounds across […]
Frank Jackson Drops Career-High 17 Points Off Bench
New Orleans Pelicans point/shooting guard Frank Jackson logged a new career high in scoring Monday versus the Memphis Grizzlies, finishing with 17 points in just 19 minutes of action. With E'Twaun Moore ruled out, Jackson saw an increased scoring role off the bench, finishing 7-for-10 from the field overall, including 3-for-5 from deep. Owners can […]
Donovan Mitchell Nails Six Triples In The Loss
Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell could not follow up his stellar line from Saturday on this night as he shot just eight of 24 from the floor but did nail six makes from three on Monday. Mitchell connected on just two of 12 shots from inside the arc, and added three rebounds with a single […]
Giannis Antetokounmpo Scores 30 Points On 30 Shots
Milwaukee Bucks guard/forward Giannis Antetokounmpo notched another 30-point game to help propel his club to victory on Monday over the Utah Jazz. Antetokounmpo connected on 13 of 30 shots and added 10 rebounds with two blocks and steal before picking up his sixth foul in 35 minutes of action. Coming off a monster 43 point […]
Eric Bledsoe Struggles On Offense In Tuesday's Win
Milwaukee Bucks guard Eric Bledsoe could not find his offensive groove on Monday as he scored just six points and committed six turnovers on the night. In a game he will want to forget, Bledsoe shot a dismal 3-for-11 from the floor but somewhat salvaged his line with three steals to go along with six […]
James Harden With Another Monster Line On Monday
Houston Rockets guard James Harden continued his tear on Tuesday when he registered 32 points and added a bunch of extras in his club's win over the Nuggets. Harden connected on 12 of 15 shots at the line and added 14 assists with five rebounds and a block with six triples on the night. Okay, […]
Derrick White Continues Hot Streak
San Antonio Spurs guard Derrick White continued his hot shooting Monday night in a win over the Detroit Pistons. White scored 17 points on 4-for-7 shooting from the field and a perfect 9-for-9 from the line in 35 minutes. White also added five rebounds and two assists while committing just one turnover. White has now […]
DeMar DeRozan Posts Full Line Monday
San Antonio Spurs guard DeMar DeRozan stuffed the stat sheet Monday night against the Detroit Pistons. DeRozan lead the team with 26 points on 12-for-21 shooting while contributing nine assists, seven rebounds, two steals and two blocks in 34 minutes. After a disappointing 11-point outing on Saturday, DeRozan returned to form in a big way […]
E'Twaun Moore Unlikely To Play Monday Night
New Orleans Pelicans guard E'Twaun Moore (quad) will likely sit out Monday night against the Memphis Grizzlies. Moore was originally listed as questionable but is now leaning towards doubtful Monday, as coach Alvin Gentry expects him not to play. If Moore sits, Tim Frazier, Solomon Hill and Wesley Johnson will all be candidates for extra […]
Jeremy Lamb is Questionable for Tuesday
Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Jeremy Lamb (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. Lamb has been dealing with a right hamstring strain that has sidelined him a few games. Devonte' Graham has been starting in his place and looks like he will continue to do that until Lamb returns.
Joe Harris is Sitting Out on Monday
Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Joe Harris (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Boston Celtics. The Nets are banged up right now and are shorthanded at the forward position. Shabazz Napier and Rodions Kurucs will have decent DFS value as they will be forced into significant minutes on Monday.
Jimmy Butler, Wilson Chandler Practice on Monday
Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Jimmy Butler (illness) and forward Wilson Chandler (illness) were both full participants during Monday's practice. Butler has missed the last two games, but appears on track to return on Tuesday. Landry Shamet and Furkan Korkmaz won't have much fantasy value once Butler returns. Chandler should be ready for Tuesday as well, so […]
Rodney Hood Doesn't Practice on Monday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Rodney Hood (Achilles) was unable to practice on Monday. It doesn't sound like Hood will be out too long, but he remains questionable for Tuesday's game against the Indiana Pacers. Alec Burks and Jordan Clarkson would see increased playing time without Hood. Clarkson is the better option out of the two, so […]
Dillon Brooks Ruled Out on Monday
Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Dillon Brooks (toe) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Indiana Pacers. He was listed as doubtful, but will officially sit out and be considered day-to-day with right toe soreness. Justin Holiday should soak up a majority of the minutes, but he's a risky DFS option.

BALLER MOVE: Short term add in 12-team leagues, long term add in 14-team leagues OWNED IN: 11% of leagues ANALYSIS: In the middle of December, no one wanted Austin Rivers.

Bradley Beal Scores Team-High 25 Points In Win
Washington Wizards shooting guard Bradley Beal keyed his team to victory over the Oklahoma City Thunder on Sunday, finishing with 25 points, six assists and five rebounds. Without John Wall for the remainder of the year, it will be Beal’s show in D.C. and he has shown a propensity for putting up monster stat lines […]

BALLER MOVE: Add In 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 7% of leagues ANALYSIS: Dante Exum had to exit the Jazz's Saturday match-up against the Detroit Pistons due to an ankle sprain, though for the moment let's discuss the 23-year old Melbourne, Australia native's progress to this point in the NBA and where he stands for the […]
Josh Jackson Goes Off For 22 Points On Sunday
Phoenix Suns shooting guard/small forward Josh Jackson got things going once Devin Booker (back) exited the contest on Sunday to score 22 points in 32 minutes of action.
