Denver Nuggets forward Torrey Craig was inserted into the starting unit for the second half with Gary Harris (groin) exiting the game and not returning in Monday's win. Craig scored eight points with four rebounds and added an assist with a steal and two makes from deep in 17 minutes. The last time Harris was […]
Monte Morris Records Eight Points In 22 Minutes
Denver Nuggets guard Monte Morris logged 22 minutes in Monday's 106-103 win over the Toronto Raptors. Morris struggled from the floor connecting on 3-for-10 shooting to score eight points while adding a single rebound and an assist with two turnovers on the night. Gary Harris (groin) exited this contest and did not return and we […]
Jamal Murray Posts A Full Line With Seven Turnovers
Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray flirted with a triple-double, but also managed to record seven turnovers in his club's win over the Toronto Raptors on Monday. Murray connected on nine of 21 shots to score 21 points while dishing out eight dimes with seven rebounds and two triples in 41 minutes of action. Murray has […]
Malik Beasley Scores 15 Points Against The Raptors
Denver Nuggets guard Malik Beasley took full advantage of the extra minutes with Gary Harris (groin) exiting the game and not returning to score 15 points to help in the 106-103 win over the Toronto Raptors. Beasley connected on 6-for-8 shooting with two rebounds and an assist with three makes from deep in 27 minutes […]
Terrance Ferguson Draws Start, Provides Dud
Oklahoma City Thunder guard Terrance Ferguson (ankle) returned to action on Monday after a four-game absence, recording two points, four assists, three rebounds, one block and one steal in 27 minutes. Ferguson is a threat to play quality minutes this season, but he is on the court solely to defend. There are better options to […]
Rodney Hood Has Quiet Offensive Outing
Cleveland Cavaliers shooting guard Rodney Hood went just 2-for-8 from the floor during Monday’s win over the Brooklyn Nets, finishing with nine points. Hood seems to have taken a bit of a step back in the offense with the addition of Alec Burks to the fold, meaning that owners who relied on Hood for his […]
George Hill Logs Team-High 35 Minutes
Cleveland Cavaliers point/shooting guard George Hill entered Monday’s contest against the Brooklyn Nets with a 20-minute restriction on his playing time, but that plan never materialized. Instead, Hill wound up playing a team- and season-high 35 minutes, delivering six points, five rebounds and two assists. The offense has been slow to come around for Hill […]
Alec Burks Delivers Game-Winning Dunk
Cleveland Cavaliers shooting guard Alec Burks made quite the impression in just his third game with his new team, delivering a game-winning dunk in the closing seconds Monday versus the Brooklyn Nets. Burks was aggressive off the bench, finishing with 13 points on 5-for-13 shooting in 29 minutes, adding seven rebounds. While he has gone […]
Jordan Clarkson Posts First Double-Double Of Season
Cleveland Cavaliers shooting guard Jordan Clarkson entered the night with more games this season with zero rebounds (two) than games with more than five rebounds (one). But during Monday’s win over the Brooklyn Nets, Clarkson snatched a career-high 11 rebounds to go along with his team-high 20 points, giving him his first double-double of the […]
Allen Crabbe Ice-Cold From Field Again
Brooklyn Nets shooting guard Allen Crabbe finished 1-for-7 from the field during Monday’s loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers, dropping his shooting percentage on the season down to 31.2 percent overall. It has been a titanic struggle shooting the ball for Crabbe, whose lone make came from three-point range where he is shooting a career-low 34.3 […]
Spencer Dinwiddie Finishes With 18 Points In Defeat
Brooklyn Nets point/shooting guard Spencer Dinwiddie bounced back from a single-digit scoring effort with 18 points during Monday’s loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers. While he wasn’t shooting as frequently as D’Angelo Russell (31 shot attempts), Dinwiddie went 6-for-14 from the field, including 4-for-11 from deep. In addition to committing just one turnover in 32 minutes, […]
D'Angelo Russell Attempts Career-High 31 Shots
Brooklyn Nets point/shooting guard D'Angelo Russell was shooting early and often during Monday’s loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers, hoisting a career-high 31 shot attempts. He made 13 of said attempts, finishing with a monster stat line of 30 points, eight rebounds, six assists and four made triples. Without Caris Levert in the lineup, Russell has […]
Kevin Huerter Solid Again In Seventh Start
Atlanta Hawks shooting guard Kevin Huerter seems to have made himself at home in the team’s starting lineup, finishing with 10 points, five rebounds and four assists during Monday’s loss to the Golden State Warriors. Huerter took just six shots in 27 minutes, but that seems to be his m.o. at this point, having logged […]
Jeremy Lin Scores 14 Points In Return
Atlanta Hawks point/shooting guard Jeremy Lin delivered 14 points off the bench in Monday’s loss to the Golden State Warriors. For Lin, it was his first game back after a two-game absence due to an ankle injury. In addition to the scoring, he added five rebounds, five assists and two steals across 24 minutes, essentially […]
Kent Bazemore Delivers Dud Off Bench
Atlanta Hawks shooting guard/small forward Kent Bazemore was nearly silent during Monday’s loss to the Golden State Warriors, finishing with three points on one of six shooting across 19 minutes. In addition to his lack of offensive contributions, he added just one assist and one block. It appears that Kevin Huerter has leapfrogged him in […]
Klay Thompson Records Ninth Straight 20-Point Game
Golden State Warriors shooting guard Klay Thompson finished with 27 points during Monday’s win over the Atlanta Hawks, his ninth straight outing scoring at least 20. He also tied his season high in rebounds with eight, which he set Saturday against Detroit. Even with Stephen Curry back in the mix, Thompson still saw 19 shot […]
Gary Harris Leaves With Hip Injury
Denver Nuggets shooting guard/small forward Gary Harris (hip) left Monday's game against the Raptors after nine minutes of playing time. He finished the game with three points on one of three shooting along with one rebound. This is disappointing for the 24-year-old who was playing his second game since missing a pair of games with […]
Reggie Bullock Doubtful For Return Monday
Detroit Pistons shooting guard Reggie Bullock departed Monday’s game against the Oklahoma City Thunder in the first quarter with a left ankle sprain. He logged just three minutes of action, missing the only shot he took and snatching one rebound. Langston Galloway is likely to see the largest increase in minutes should Bullock be held […]
Marco Belinelli Probable To Return Tuesday
San Antonio Spurs shooting guard Marco Belinelli is probable to play in Tuesday’s contest against the Utah Jazz, having been held out Sunday due to neck stiffness. Derrick White saw 33 minutes with Belinelli ruled inactive, and may be taking a step back with the marksman likely to rejoin the rotation against a stingy Jazz […]
Tyler Johnson Probable To Return Tuesday
Miami Heat point/shooting guard Tyler Johnson is probable to make his return to action Tuesday against the Orlando Magic. Johnson has missed the previous six games due to a right hamstring injury, and if he does suit up Tuesday, he could become quite relevant from a fantasy perspective immediately with Goran Dragic still on the […]
Luke Kennard Active For Monday’s Game
Detroit Pistons shooting guard Luke Kennard will be suited up for Monday’s game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. It was believed that Kennard would be cleared for action Saturday against Golden State, but that was ultimately backtracked. The second-year guard hasn’t appeared in a game since Oct. 25 due to a shoulder injury, so you’ll […]
Hamidou Diallo On Track To Be Active Monday
Oklahoma City Thunder shooting guard Hamidou Diallo is set to be available for action as soon as Monday’s game against the Detroit Pistons. While he’s likely to suit up, head coach Billy Donovan said that he will be used “only if necessary” as he returns from a left ankle sprain that has kept him on […]
Terrance Ferguson Set For Return Monday
Oklahoma City Thunder shooting guard Terrance Ferguson is available to rejoin the lineup beginning Monday against the Detroit Pistons. Ferguson has missed six of the previous seven games due to an ankle injury, so how quickly he’s reintegrated into the rotation remains to be seen, although the Thunder remain thin at the off-ball guard slot. […]
George Hill Tagged With Minutes Restriction Monday
Cleveland Cavaliers point/shooting guard George Hill will draw another start Monday against the Brooklyn Nets, but he still won’t be a full-go in his second game back from injury. The veteran guard will start at the off-guard spot alongside Collin Sexton and see his minutes capped around 20. Hill was sidelined for 11 games and […]
E'Twaun Moore Gets Green Light To Play Monday
New Orleans Pelicans shooting guard/small forward E'Twaun Moore is all set to play Monday against the Los Angeles Clippers without any type of minutes restriction, having been listed as probable earlier in the day due to a left tibial contusion. Moore could be a nice DFS play for the evening as the matchup features two […]
Jeremy Lin Cleared To Return Monday
Atlanta Hawks point/shooting guard Jeremy Lin will be back in action Monday against the Golden State Warriors, having missed the previous two games due to an ankle injury. His return could slightly impact Trae Young, but Lin has proven to be a borderline fantasy option in a majority of leagues as he has seen his […]
Joe Harris Ruled Out For Monday
Brooklyn Nets shooting guard/small forward Joe Harris has been ruled out for Monday’s game against the Cleveland Cavaliers due to left adductor tightness. Head coach Kenny Atkinson noted that Harris went through workouts on both Sunday and Monday and hopes to have the 27-year-old back for Wednesday’s contest against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The absence […]
Devin Booker Ruled Out Indefinitely
Phoenix Suns point/shooting guard Devin Booker does not have a timetable for returning to action after exiting Sunday’s game due to a left hamstring strain. He has already been ruled out for Tuesday’s game against the Sacramento Kings, but this almost certainly will cost Booker multiple contests with the way the injury sounds. With T.J. […]

E'Twaun Moore is Probable on Monday
New Orleans Pelicans guard/forward E'Twaun Moore (leg) is probable for Monday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. Moore is dealing with a left tibial contusion, but is expected to be fine. Wesley Johnson would head to the bench assuming Moore is able to suit up.
