Garrett Temple And Joakim Noah Available To Play Against Rockets

Memphis Grizzlies shooting guard Garrett Temple (groin) and center Joakim Noah (heel) are available to play against the Rockets on Monday. Temple, who has some fantasy value, was in the starting lineup against the Rockets while Noah, who is generally the second big man off the bench, does not have any fantasy value.

Jeremy Lamb Unlikely To Return Against Magic

Charlotte Hornets shooting guard/small forward Jeremy Lamb (hamstring) is doubtful to return against the Magic after suffering a right hamstring strain with a little less than three minutes remaining in the opening quarter of the game. Lamb was off to a good start as he tallied nine points on 4-for-4 shooting from the floor to […]

Terrance Ferguson To Start Monday

Oklahoma City Thunder shooting guard/ small forward Terrance Ferguson (illness) will return to the starting lineup against the Mavericks on Monday after missing Sunday's contest. With Ferguson's return Abdul Nader, who had three points in 15 minutes in place of Ferguson yesterday, will once again come off the bench. Neither player is a fantasy option.

Jonathon Simmons is Questionable for Monday

Orlando Magic guard/forward Jonathon Simmons (ankle) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. The good news is that this doesn't seem to be more than a day-to-day type of issue. D.J. Augustin (ankle) is questionable as well, so Jerian Grant could be asked to play heavy minutes. Grant would be a […]

D.J. Augustin is Questionable on Monday

Orlando Magic guard D.J. Augustin (ankle) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Augustin suffered the injury on Sunday, but was able to leave under his own power. Jerian Grant would likely be forced into heavy minutes with Jonathon Simmons (ankle) questionable as well. Grant would be an interesting DFS option […]

Devin Booker Will Play on Monday

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (back) is available for Monday's game against the Golden State Warriors. However, head coach Igor Kokoskov said Booker is a game-time decision, so fantasy owners need to check back before tip-off. It would likely be a committee approach to fill the void if Booker is out.

Jeff Teague, Derrick Rose Doubtful on Monday

Minnesota Timberwolves guards Jeff Teague (ankle) and Derrick Rose (ankle) are listed as doubtful for Monday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Tyus Jones is going to see heavy minutes with both of them sidelined. He scored 12 points with five assists, four rebounds and five steals on Sunday. Jones is going to be a […]

Daniel Hamilton Will Start on Monday

Atlanta Hawks guard Daniel Hamilton will draw the start against the Indiana Pacers on Monday. Kent Bazemore (ankle) is unable to play, so Hamilton will draw the start. This will be Hamilton's first start of the season and his eighth appearance. He's been fantastic in the G-League and is worth keeping an eye on in […]

Emmanuel Mudiay is Questionable on Tuesday

New York Knicks guard Emmanuel Mudiay (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Denver Nuggets. Mudiay said he'd be ready to play, but he still remains listed as questionable. Trey Burke and Frank Ntilikina would see increased playing time if Mudiay is unable to play. Burke is worth a look in deep leagues right […]

Luka Doncic Stays Hot On Sunday

Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Luka Doncic continued his recent tear with a 25-point outing in Sunday's win over OKC. He shot 9-for-19 from the field, including 4-for-11 from deep with a 3-for-4 record from the charity stripe. Doncic also dished out seven assists to his teammates.

Sacramento Kings shooting guard Buddy Hield found his three-point shot against the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday, finishing 4-for-11 from deep en route to a 21-point performance.

Caldwell-Pope is no stranger to setting his […]

Josh Hart Finishes With Career-High 22 Points In Win

Los Angeles Lakers shooting guard Josh Hart delivered a career-high 22-point performance during Sunday’s victory over the Sacramento Kings. Hart knocked down three triples, marking his sixth consecutive outing with multiple threes made.

Brandon Ingram Narrowly Misses First Double-Double Of Year

Los Angeles Lakers shooting guard/small forward Brandon Ingram came just an assist shy of recording his first double-double of 2018-19 on Sunday versus the Sacramento Kings.

Fred VanVleet Shooting Slump Continues In Start

Toronto Raptors point guard Fred Vanvleet again got the start with Kyle Lowry (back) on the shelf and he still struggled to connect from the floor in Sunday's win.
