Dallas Mavericks shooting guard/small forward Wesley Matthews has been given the green light to suit up during Saturday’s contest against the Golden State Warriors and will take his place amongst the starting five.

Buddy Hield Continues Epic Three-Point Barrage
Sacramento Kings shooting guard Buddy Hield was not shy about firing from long range once again Friday against the Memphis Grizzlies, going 6-for-13 from three-point land en route to a 28-point performance which included two game-icing free throws. Hield also tossed in eight rebounds, which flies under the radar when considered that he has knocked […]
Victor Oladipo Scores 26 Against Nets
Indiana Pacers guard Victor Oladipo scored 26 points on 8-for-14 shooting in Friday's win over the Brooklyn Nets. Oladipo missed nearly a month to a knee injury, and despite a few off-nights since returning to the lineup, Friday's game showed us an Oladipo who appears to be back to his old self. In addition to […]
Jrue Holiday Posts Second Straight Double-Double
New Orleans Pelicans point/shooting guard Jrue Holiday delivered 18 points and 10 assists during Friday’s loss to the Los Angeles Lakers. In addition to tossing in six rebounds and a season-high three blocks, Holiday had an all-around strong fantasy performance, which has become the norm for him.

DeMar DeRozan Held In Check During Victory
San Antonio Spurs shooting guard DeMar DeRozan finished with 12 points and eight assists during Friday’s win over the Minnesota Timberwolves. The nature of the blowout surely meant that DeRozan didn’t need a typical 20-plus-point performance, but that still hurts his owners. While the month of December has seen two 36-point games from DeRozan, it […]
Kris Dunn Fills Up Stat Sheet During Victory
Chicago Bulls point/shooting guard Kris Dunn logged 36 minutes during Friday’s win over the Orlando Magic and pitched in 12 points, eight rebounds and seven assists. With Zach LaVine in street clothes, Dunn has taken on an increased offensive role, although he finished 4-for-14 overall from the field Friday. It’s likely that once LaVine returns, […]
Evan Fournier Drills Five Threes In Defeat
Orlando Magic shooting guard Evan Fournier finished Friday’s loss to the Chicago Bulls with a team-high 24 points, while knocking down five threes. In addition to the scoring, Fournier added six assists and three rebounds, a solid reminder that his contributions in other categories keep him rostered in the majority of formats. His next match-up […]
Donovan Mitchell Scores Season-Low Three Points In Win
Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell could not get things going in Friday's win over the Portland Trail Blazers. Mitchell managed to connect on just one of 10 shooting to score three points to go along seven rebounds, four assists and a block with a steal in 28 minutes. It looked that Mitchell was turning the […]

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Collin Sexton scored 17 points, but it took him 17 shots to do so in Friday's loss to the Toronto Raptors. Sexton also dished out three assists with five rebounds while adding a steal with one turnover on the night. Sexton is struggling with making his shots in his last five games […]
Kawhi Leonard Leads Depleted Squad To Victory On Friday
Toronto Raptors shooting guard/small forward Kawhi Leonard continued to excel with many of his teammates out due to injury, as he registered a team-high 37 points on Friday.

Derrick Rose Exits Early On Friday
Minnesota Timberwolves point/shooting guard Derrick Rose did not play in the second half of Friday’s game against the San Antonio Spurs due to a left ankle injury which limited him to 16 minutes.

Wesley Matthews Questionable To Suit Up Saturday
Dallas Mavericks shooting guard/small forward Wesley Matthews has been listed as questionable for Saturday’s contest against the Golden State Warriors due to right foot soreness. Should Matthews be forced to the sidelines for the first time in over a month, there could be more shots in store for the likes of Luka Doncic and Harrison […]
Tyreke Evans To Miss Friday’s Contest
Indiana Pacers shooting guard/small forward Tyreke Evans will be sidelined for Friday’s game against the Brooklyn Nets due to a bruised right knee. With Evans on the bench, Aaron Holiday is expected to take over his run, although he may not garner enough playing time to warrant opportunistic DFS ownership. Evans hasn’t exceeded the 20-minute […]
Danny Green Ruled Out For Friday’s Game
Toronto Raptors shooting guard/small forward Danny Green will miss Friday’s contest against the Cleveland Cavaliers due to a bruised knee. Green joins Kyle Lowry, Serge Ibaka and Jonas Valanciunas on the bench, with nearly all members of the Toronto second unit serving as strong DFS plays. The club’s leading three-point shooter sits at 41.4 percent […]
Bogdan Bogdanovic, Iman Shumpert Cleared For Action Friday
Sacramento Kings shooting guards Bogdan Bogdanovic and Iman Shumpert have been given the green light to suit up for Friday’s contest against the Memphis Grizzlies after having been listed as questionable earlier in the day. Bogdanovic was forced to miss Wednesday’s contest with a foot injury, so how quickly he is reinserted into the rotation […]
Iman Shumpert is Questionable on Friday
Sacramento Kings guard/forward Iman Shumpert (hip) is questionable for Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He's missed the last three games due to a right hip contusion. Justin Jackson and Ben McLemore have seen more playing time in the absence of Shumpert. Neither of them are worth a look in DFS contests.
Tyreke Evans is Questionable for Friday
Indiana Pacers guard/forward Tyreke Evans (knee) is questionable for Friday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He missed Sunday's contest, but Evans has played in the last two games. It doesn't sound like Evans is 100 percent and he hasn't played well lately. He isn't a reliable DFS option and should be left on the waiver […]
Bogdan Bogdanovic is Questionable on Friday
Sacramento Kings guard/forward Bogdan Bogdanovic (foot) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He missed Wednesday's game due to a sore right foot. The King will likely go with a committee approach to fill the void. They don't have much depth with Iman Shumpert (hip) questionable for this one as well.
Jonathon Simmons Won't Play on Friday
Orlando Magic guard/forward Jonathon Simmons (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He injured his ankle during Wednesday's game and was unable to return.

Houston Rockets guard James Harden scored at least 30 points for the fifth consecutive time on Thursday, finishing a 101-99 loss to Miami with 35 points on 7-for-23 shooting.

Luka Doncic Goes For 32 Points Against Clippers
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic took his career-high to 32 points on Thursday against the Clippers, shooting 10-for-20 from the field and 3-for-6 from behind the arc.

Lou Williams Steers Clippers Back To Winning Ways
Los Angeles Clippers guard Lou Williams made his return from injury on Thursday, and he played a key role straightaway, scoring 13 of his 26 points in the fourth quarter to help the team snap a four-game losing streak against Dallas. He shot 9-for-12 from the field, including 1-for-3 from downtown, while sinking seven of […]
