RotoBaller NBA Recap: Giannis Doing Giannis Things
Welcome to the RotoBaller NBA Recap. In this feature, we will highlight three fantasy basketball takeaways from last night's slate of NBA games. We had four contests on the Sunday slate with the Pelicans beating the Pistons 116-108, the Bucks upending the Raptors 104-99, the Spurs defeating the Jazz 110-97 and the Hornets stinging the […]
Jordan Clarkson is Questionable on Monday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Jordan Clarkson (back) is considered questionable for Monday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Clarkson reportedly looked sore during shootaround on Monday, according to Joe Vardon. He suffered the injury during their last contest and was unable to play in the fourth quarter. Rodney Hood (toe) is also questionable for this contest. Alec […]
Rodney Hood is Questionable on Monday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Rodney Hood (toe) is questionable for Monday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Hood was unable to play in Saturday's contest and could be looking at his second straight game sidelined. Jordan Clarkson and Alec Burks would benefit in playing time without Hood in the rotation.
Gordon Hayward is Doubtful for Monday
Boston Celtics guard/forward Gordon Hayward (illness) is doubtful for Monday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Both Kyrie Irving (shoulder) and Aron Baynes have been ruled out, so the Celtics could be shorthanded in this one. Marcus Smart would likely draw the start with Hayward on the sideline. He'd be someone worth looking at for […]
Bobby Portis, Kris Dunn Will Play on Monday
Chicago Bulls forward Bobby Portis (knee) and guard Kris Dunn (knee) will play in Monday's game against the Sacramento Kings. It sounds like both players will come off the bench on Monday and be eased back into action. Jabari Parker will lose some minutes and value with Portis returning. Dunn will be slowly eased back […]
Reggie Bullock Ruled Out on Monday
Detroit Pistons guard/forward Reggie Bullock (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Bullock will officially miss his fourth game in a row. There is no indication that Bullock is anywhere close to returning. Stanley Johnson (knee) is questionable, but otherwise Bruce Brown will likely draw another start.
Stanley Johnson is Questionable on Monday
Detroit Pistons guard/forward Stanley Johnson (knee) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Johnson has missed the last two games due to a left knee contusion. Bruce Brown could be in line for another start without Johnson, but he hasn't done much with his extra minutes lately.
Robert Covington is Uncertain for Monday
Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Robert Covington (knee) is listed as probable, but he reportedly has not been cleared to play yet. Head coach Tom Thibodeau will make his final decision after warmups. Josh Okogie would likely draw the start, assuming Covington is unable to play. Fantasy owners should check back after warmups.
Tyler Johnson, Wayne Ellington Expected to Play Monday
Miami Heat guards Tyler Johnson (hip) and Wayne Ellington (personal) are expected to be available for Monday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Johnson left their last contest early due to a hip issue, but he seems fine. However, the Heat are getting healthy, so that is going to hurt Johnson's value. Ellington missed the […]
Josh Richardson is Probable for Monday
Miami Heat guard/forward Josh Richardson (shoulder) is probable for Monday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. The Heat are getting back their players, so Richardson could lose a little value once the team gets healthy. The shoulder issue seems minor, so Richardson should be fine to suit up. He hasn't played well lately, but hopefully […]
Jamal Murray Participates in Shootaround
Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (forearm, shin) was able to get through shootaround, but is still questionable for Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. It sounds like the Nuggets want to be cautious with Murray and prevent any long term issues. Denver is really banged up, so they desperately need Murray, but they won't let […]
Frank Ntilikina Scores 18 Points In Sunday's Loss
New York Knicks guard Frank Ntilikina came off the bench to score a season-high 18 points in Sunday's loss to the Hornets. He shot a perfect 4-for-4 from deep and 7-for-11 overall before fouling out after logging only 20 minutes. It was a bizarre one from Ntilikina, as he went scoreless in the opening half […]
Tim Hardaway Jr. Scores 21 Points In Sunday's Loss
New York Knicks shooting guard Tim Hardaway Jr. had a very good bounce-back performance on Sunday against the Hornets, finishing with 21 points on 7-for-13 shooting. He made three of five attempts from deep after missing all attempts against Brooklyn on Saturday and ending up with seven points. Hardaway Jr. also dished out five assists […]
Jeremy Lamb Only Misses From Deep On Sunday
Charlotte Hornets shooting guard Jeremy Lamb nearly had a perfect shooting night on Sunday against the Knicks, sinking both of his freebies and going 8-for-12 from the field, with his only misses coming from downtown. He added five rebounds to his tally and stretched his run with at least one steal to nine games. It […]
Donovan Mitchell Scores An Inefficient 27 Points On Sunday
Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell scored 27 points while making just eight of 21 shots in his club's 13-point loss to the San Antonio Spurs on Sunday. Mitchell added five rebounds with an assist and a block with two steals on the night. Mitchell and Ricky Rubio got up a combined 44 shots in this […]
Ricky Rubio Scores 26 Points On 23 Shots
Utah Jazz guard Ricky Rubio got his shots up on Sunday when he attempted a season-high 23, connecting on 11 of them to score 26 points, but it was not enough in the loss to the Spurs. Rubio managed to add three rebounds with two assists and three makes from deep on the night. It […]
Joe Ingles Quiet In Sunday's Loss To The Spurs
Utah Jazz forward Joe Ingles had an off night on Sunday when he recorded just five points but salvaged his line with five rebounds and five assists in the loss to the San Antonio Spurs. Ingles, along with many of the other Jazz players have struggled with consistency this season. The one benefit with Ingles […]
Kyle Korver Scores Five Points In Sunday's Loss
Utah Jazz shooting guard/small forward Kyle Korver connected on 2-for-6 shooting while knocking down a single make from three to score five points in Sunday's loss to the San Antonio Spurs. Since his arrival in Salt Lake, Korver has been utilized as a three-point shooter off the bench and if his shot is not falling, […]
Marco Belinelli Scores In Double Digits Once Again
San Antonio Spurs shooting guard/small forward Marco Belinelli recorded 10 points with many extras in his club's win on Sunday. Belinelli connected on 4-for-9 shooting while knocking down two makes from three and adding three assists with two rebounds with a steal and a block in 24 minutes of action. This is possibly the Italian's […]
DeMar DeRozan Fills Up The Box Score On Sunday
San Antonio Spurs shooting guard/small forward DeMar DeRozan connected on 26 points with many extras in his club's 110-97 win over the Utah Jazz on Sunday. DeRozan connected on 10 of 23 shots and added eight assists with six boards and two steals with a block on the night. DeRozan is on a tear averaging […]
Derrick White Plays 30 Minutes On Sunday
San Antonio Spurs guard Derrick White did not provide too much in 30 minutes of action on Sunday when he scored just six points in the win over the Utah Jazz. White added four assists with three steals and two rebounds in the start. White got the start with Dante Cunningham (abdominal) out and had […]
Bryn Forbes Records 15 Points On Sunday
San Antonio Spurs guard Bryn Forbes notched 15 points on an efficient 6-for-8 shooting on Sunday when he helped secure the win over the Utah Jazz. Forbes added five boards with three assists with a make from three in 31 minutes of action. Forbes got some extra minutes with the Spurs being hit with the […]
Damyean Dotson (SG, NYK) - Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add In 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 34% of leagues ANALYSIS: The 8-19 New York Knicks may not have done a lot of winning over the past few years, but with that comes the fact that they have served as an opportunity for some unsung players to make a name for themselves on the […]
Kawhi Leonard Scores 20 Points With Full Line
Toronto Raptors shooting guard/small forward Kawhi Leonard posted 20 points while grabbing eight rebounds and also added many extras, but it was not enough in the five-point loss to the Bucks. Leonard added four assists with two steals and two blocks with a make from three on Sunday. Leonard is on a tear at the […]
Danny Green Provides A Bit Of Everything On Sunday
Toronto Raptors shooting guard/small forward Danny Green managed to log a solid line in his club's loss to the Milwaukee Bucks on Sunday. Green scored eight points with two makes from deep and added five boards with four assists to go along with a steal and three blocks. This was a solid line for Green […]
E'Twaun Moore Records Just Four Points On Sunday
New Orleans Pelicans shooting guard/small forward E'Twaun Moore (leg) managed to record just four points in limited minutes in Sunday's win. Moore was initially not going to play in this one, but then entered the game in the first half. He is dealing with a leg injury and there is the possibility he sits out […]
Jrue Holiday Leads The Charge In Win Over Pistons
New Orleans Pelicans guard Jrue Holiday posted a full line that included 37 points with six triples to help propel his club to victory on Sunday. Holiday connected on a sizzling 14-for-22 from the floor and added five boards with five assists and three steals but did commit nine turnovers. Anthony Davis (hip) missed most […]
Hamstring To Keep Allonzo Trier From Playing Sunday
New York Knicks shooting guard Allonzo Trier (hamstring) will not be available for Sunday's game against the Hornets. There is no word for how long he will be out. Trier is coming off a 15-point effort on Saturday, although it was his first double-figure scoring effort in five games. With the 22-year-old reserve guard unavailable, […]
George Hill, Jason Smith Are Available on Sunday
Milwaukee Bucks guard George Hill and forward/center Jason Smith are available for Sunday's game against the Toronto Raptors. Both players came in a three team trade earlier this week and will make their debuts for Milwaukee on Sunday. Hill will come off the bench, but should still have some fantasy value. Smith can be left […]
Jamal Murray is Questionable for Monday
Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (shin, forearm) is questionable for Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Murray is really banged up at the moment, so the Nuggets may decide to give him a day to rest. Monte Morris would see heavy minutes if Murray is unable to play. Morris would be worth looking at in […]
