Cleveland Cavaliers shooting guard Rodney Hood has been sidelined for the remainder of Friday’s game against the Sacramento Kings due to a right foot injury.

Matthew Dellavedova, John Henson Acquired By Cavaliers
Milwaukee Bucks point/shooting guard Matthew Dellavedova is returning to the Cleveland Cavaliers, who have also acquired center John Henson in a trade with the Milwaukee Bucks, sending George Hill in the opposite direction. Dellavedova spent the first three seasons of his career in Cleveland, having averaged just 8.1 minutes per game with Milwaukee this year. […]
George Hill Acquired By Bucks
Cleveland Cavaliers point/shooting guard George Hill has found himself a new home with the Milwaukee Bucks after a trade on Friday. Hill has played in just three games since returning from injury, but is shooting a career-high 51.4 percent from the floor this season. His spot in the rotation has been a bit awkward as […]
C.J. McCollum Probable To Suit Up Saturday
Portland Trail Blazers shooting guard C.J. McCollum is listed as probable to make his return to the lineup Saturday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. McCollum missed his first game of the season Thursday due to a left ankle sprain, with Jake Layman seeing minutes in his stead. McCollum has continued to pack the scoring column (21.3 […]
Trevor Ariza is Questionable for Friday
Phoenix Suns forward Trevor Ariza (knee) is questionable for Friday's game against the Miami Heat. He has only missed two games this season and both were due to personal reasons. Josh Jackson and Mikal Bridges would get extra minutes if Ariza is unable to play on Friday.
Jeremy Lin Has Been Ruled Out on Saturday
Atlanta Hawks guard Jeremy Lin (back) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Denver Nuggets. The Hawks are banged up and will be shorthanded for this contest.

Kris Dunn Ruled Out on Friday
Chicago Bulls guard Kris Dunn (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. There was some hope that Dunn and Bobby Portis (knee) could return to the court on Friday.

Ish Smith Will Miss Three to Six Weeks
Detroit Pistons guard Ish Smith (groin) will be sidelined three to six weeks after suffering a right adductor muscle tear, according to head coach Dwane Casey. He suffered the injury on Wednesday and had an MRI taken on Thursday. Jose Calderon will take over as the backup behind Reggie Jackson. It's unlikely Calderon has any […]
Khris Middleton is Expected to Play on Friday
Milwaukee Bucks guard/forward Khris Middleton (personal) is expected to play in Friday's game against the Golden State Warriors. Middleton was absent for Wednesday's contest and it's unclear why he was unavailable. However, he is on track to the return to the lineup for Friday.

Goran Dragic Will Return on Friday
Miami Heat guard Goran Dragic (knee) will return for Friday's game against the Phoenix Suns. Dragic practiced on Wednesday and Thursday and was listed as probable for this contest. However, Dragic hasn't played in eight games and will be eased back into action. Expect Dragic to have a minutes limit and that will kill any […]
Jaylen Brown Returns With A Bang
Boston Celtics shooting guard Jaylen Brown had a great game Thursday night versus the New York Knicks. Brown scored 21 points on 7-of-10 shooting and 7-of-9 from the charity stripe. This was Brown's first game back since he was sidelined November 24th, with a back injury. Brown did come off the bench so it is […]
Tim Hardaway Jr. Scores Well And That's About It
New York Knicks shooting guard Tim Hardaway Jr. had a decent night scoring against the Boston Celtics Thursday but it wasn't easy. Hardaway Jr. scored 22 points going seven for nineteen from the field with six of those made buckets coming from three-point territory. This type of production is what fantasy players have been getting […]
James Harden Scores Season-Low 15 Points On Thursday
Houston Rockets guard James Harden was limited to a season-low 15 points in Thursday's blowout loss to the Jazz.

Donovan Mitchell Quiet In 26 Minutes On Thursday
Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell connected on just 3-for-9 shooting on Thursday to score just six points, but it was all good as his club blew away the Houston Rockets.

De'Anthony Melton Struggles In 28 Minutes Of Action
Phoenix Suns guard De'Anthony Melton could not follow up his 21-point performance on Thursday as he recorded just seven points in the loss.

Troy Daniels Scores 15 Points On Thursday

Nik Stauskas Scores Nine Points Off The Bench
Portland Trail Blazers shooting guard Nik Stauskas provided nine points as he got some extra run with C.J. McCollum (ankle) on the shelf in Thursday's win. Stauskas connected on 3-for-7 shooting without a make from three and added two boards with three assists and a steal. The night belonged to Jake Layman who got hot […]
Seth Curry Disappoints In Thursday's Start
Portland Trail Blazers guard Seth Curry provided very little in his start on Thursday when he recorded just three points on a rough shooting night. Curry connected on just 1-for-6 shooting from the floor and added a rebound with an assist and a block in 17 minutes. Curry started for the injured C.J. McCollum (ankle) […]
Brandon Ingram Plays Just Five Minutes
Los Angeles Lakers small forward/shooting guard Brandon Ingram recorded five points and one block in five minutes in Wednesday's win over the Spurs.

C.J. McCollum Ruled Out Thursday Night
Portland Trail Blazers guard C.J. McCollum (ankle) will not play Thursday night against the Phoenix Suns. McCollum logged 40 minutes against the Dallas Mavericks Tuesday, but must have picked up an ankle sprain somewhere along the way and is still dealing with discomfort. McCollum's absence leaves a ton of minutes up for grabs, which will […]
Brandon Knight Could Return in A Week
Houston Rockets guard Brandon Knight (knee) could be cleared to play in roughly seven to 10 days, according to head coach Mike D'Antoni. Knight was able to get through his first full practice on Wednesday. However, D'Antoni has not said that Knight will even have a spot in the rotation once he returns. It doesn't […]
Tyreke Evans Expected to Remain A Starter
Indiana Pacers guard Tyreke Evans has been drawing starts with Victor Oladipo (knee) sidelined over the last eight games.

It sounds like the Pacers […]
Jaylen Brown Will Play on Thursday
Boston Celtics guard/forward Jaylen Brown (tailbone) will play in Thursday's contest. Brown is no longer on the injury report and has been able to fully practice the last two days. Brown is expected to come off the bench, but he'll battle red-hot Gordon Hayward for playing time. Marcus Smart will lose some value with Brown […]
David Nwaba Remains Sidelined For Friday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward David Nwaba (knee) will remain sidelined for Friday's game against the Sacramento Kings. This will be Nwaba's seventh straight game sidelined. It doesn't seem like he's close because the Cavs continue to rule him out a full day in advance. At this point Nwaba belongs on the waiver wire in all formats […]
J.J. Redick Scores 25 Points Against Raptors
Philadelphia 76ers shooting guard J.J. Redick scored 25 points on 9-for-16 shooting in Wednesday's loss to the Raptors. He was 5-for-12 from deep.
