Orlando Magic guard/forward Jonathan Simmons continued to take advantage of the absence of Evan Fournier (knee) and Aaron Gordon (concussion), finishing the night with 24 points against the Clippers. Simmons shot 7-for-13 from the field, 2-for-3 from deep and was an accurate 8-for-10 from the charity stripe. He also contributed seven assists and was sound […]
Wesley Matthews Logs 25 Minutes In Return From Injury
Dallas Mavericks shooting guard Wesley Matthews (hip) was back on the court on Saturday after missing the last two games, playing 25 minutes in a 114-80 win over Memphis.

Dennis Smith Jr. is Questionable on Saturday
Dallas Mavericks guard Dennis Smith Jr. (knee) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He missed two games back in October due to a left knee effusion.

Phoenix Suns small forward T.J. Warren (back) and guard/forward Josh Jackson (knee) have been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Devin Booker (triceps) is questionable for this contest, but regardless the Suns are going to be very short-handed for this contest.

Devin Booker is Questionable on Saturday
Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (triceps) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. T.J. Warren (back) and Josh Jackson (knee) have already been ruled out for this contest.

Nick Young Cools Off With Three Points Versus Blazers
Golden State Warriors shooting guard Nick Young scored only three points and grabbed three rebounds in a loss to the Blazers.

Klay Thompson Scores 25 Points In Loss To Blazers
Golden State Warriors shooting guard Klay Thompson scored 25 points in a loss to the Blazers on Friday night. He also chipped in with two rebounds, three assists and a steal, but could have shot better with extra responsibilities in the absence of Stephen Curry (ankle).

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope Hits Five Threes In Loss
Los Angeles Lakers shooting guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope scored 17 points in the 125-116 loss to the Denver Nuggets on Friday night. He also added in nine rebounds, an assist, and a steal in this chippy affair. KCP was on fire in this one, but since he has been very inconsistent this season, expect him to […]
Garrett Temple With Team-High 23 Points

Temple shot 70 percent from the floor for 23 points in addition to two rebounds, two assists and a steal to round out his effective night. He saw 30 minutes, but you can't […]
Buddy Hield Held Scoreless In 30 Minutes

Ben McLemore Solid Once More On Friday

He had 14 points in 28 minutes on Friday against Utah, shooting 5-for-11 from the floor, including 2-for-4 from downtown. McLemore has […]
Lou Williams Gets Start In Win
Los Angeles Clippers guard Lou Williams was moved into the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Cavaliers but had a mediocre game, totaling 15 points, four rebounds and seven assists in the win. Though he shot inefficiently, he hit some key baskets in the fourth quarter to help keep his team ahead. Next up, […]
Bradley Beal Serviceable In Win
Washington Wizards shooting guard Bradley Beal was not needed as much on offense for Friday night's blowout victory over the streaking New Orleans Pelicans. Beal finished with only 16 points on 6-for-14 shooting, his lowest point total in over a week. Still, Beal was able to dish seven assists and knock down two three-pointers in […]
DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/10/18): NBA DFS Lineups
We have a seven game NBA slate to get us through this hump day and there are some interesting options across the board. Not a ton of injuries as of right now, so lineup construction should be pretty straight forward, which could make it difficult to get some of the bigger name players into the same lineup. […]
Donovan Mitchell Has An Inefficient Performance
Utah Jazz shooting guard Donovan Mitchell struggled shooting on Friday night against the Memphis Grizzlies. Mitchell scored 12 points, going 4-for-15 from the field, with three of those made shots coming from deep in addition to recording six assists, five rebounds and two steals.

Tyler Dorsey Gets Garbage-Time Buckets
Atlanta Hawks shooting guard Tyler Dorsey scored his career-high 18 points in the team's loss to the Pacers. Dorsey got 25 quality minutes off the bench, leading to 15 shot attempts, his season high. He also added four rebounds and a couple turnovers. Next, the Hawks face the Bulls, where the game should remain close, […]
Kent Bazemore With a Measly Four Points
Atlanta Hawks shooting guard Kent Bazemore had yet another game to forget in his short time on the floor. The Hawks were being blown out and head coach Mike Budenholzer decided enough was enough, pulling the starters and capping Bazemore's night at 20 minutes. In his time on the floor, he added four points, three […]

Evan Fournier Believes He Can Return This Season
Orlando Magic guard/forward Evan Fournier (knee) has been ruled out of Friday's game against the Sacramento Kings.

He was listed as questionable on Thursday, but has been officially ruled out versus Orlando. Fox could be sidelined for multiple games while the Kings continue to tank for draft positioning.

Stanley Johnson is Doubtful Against Bulls
Detroit Pistons guard/forward Stanley Johnson (back) is unlikely to play against the Chicago Bulls on Friday. He was unable to participate in shootaround and missed Wednesday's game as well. Johnson is doubtful for this contest and should be dropped in all standard leagues. He is only worth a look in deeper leagues and he continues […]
