Bradley Beal Continues Hot Streak
Washington Wizards shooting guard Bradley Beal continued to dominate in the scoring column on Wednesday night against the New York Knicks. Beal started the game going 7-for-7 from the field and finished going 11-for-14 with 27 points, six assists, four rebounds and three steals in 36 minutes. Beal must have gotten into the holiday spirit, […]
Josh Richardson Continues Stellar Play
Miami Heat guard/forward Josh Richardson continued his impressive streak in the win over the Detroit Pistons on Wednesday night. Richardson scored 20 points, shooting 5-for-7 from the three-point line, to go along with five assists, a steal and a block in a team-high 38 minutes. The Heat always loved Richardson for his above-average defense. However, […]
Will Barton Listed As Active
Denver Nuggets guard Will Barton (illness) is active for Wednesday night's game against the Phoenix Suns. Barton was a game-time decision with an illness, but feels good to go after going through warmups. Season-long owners can feel confident activating Barton, however, he may be a risky option in DFS. If Barton is limited at all […]
Caris LeVert is Out on Wednesday
Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Caris LeVert (groin) will not play against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Wednesday. This will mark the first game of the season that LeVert has been inactive. Sadly, it's coming when he's the hottest, averaging 16.3 points, 5.5 rebounds and 8.3 assists over his last four contests. Allen Crabbe, Joe Harris, and Nik […]
Will Barton Questionable Against Suns
Denver Nuggets guard/forward Will Barton (illness) is considered questionable to play versus the Phoenix Suns on Wednesday. Lately, Barton has been dealing with a back issue, but he popped up on the injury report Wednesday due to illness. Gary Harris and Jamal Murray have seen their production and usage rates increase in games without Barton. […]
Andre Iguodala Out On Wednesday
Golden State Warriors guard/forward Andre Iguodala (back) will not play against the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday. It's the front end of a back-to-back set, so it's not surprising to see Iggy on the sidelines against the 13-win Mavericks. Omri Casspi (back) will get the night off as well, but both are expected to be able […]
Danny Green Ruled Out Wednesday
San Antonio Spurs guard/forward Danny Green (groin) will not play against the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday. Kawhi Leonard (rest) and Tony Parker (rest) will also be on the sidelines, but Green is dealing with an actual injury. Head coach Gregg Popovich hinted after Tuesday's victory that Green could be "shut down for a while." With […]
Stanley Johnson Ruled Out Against Heat
Detroit Pistons guard/forward Stanley Johnson (hip) has been ruled out of Wednesday's contest against the Miami Heat. This will be Johnson's second straight game on the sidelines. That means more minutes for both Luke Kennard and Reggie Bullock. Both have been playing well lately but could see reduced roles with Avery Bradley returning from injury. […]
Avery Bradley Will Play Wednesday
Detroit Pistons guard Avery Bradley (groin) will play against the Miami Heat on Wednesday. Bradley has missed the last seven games with a groin issue. It's safe to assume that Bradley will be working with some sort of minutes limit on Wednesday. Anthony Tolliver is expected to head back to the bench and play with […]
Courtney Lee Plays Better on Tuesday, Still Struggles With Shot
New York Knicks shooting guard Courtney Lee had a complete game against the Spurs, making two triples on his way to 13 points on a poor 5-for-15 shooting. The good news is Lee was active in all other areas on Tuesday, collecting both five assists and five rebounds in his team-high 36 minutes. He was […]
C.J. McCollum Has An Average Performance
Portland Trail Blazers shooting guard C.J. McCollum produced numbers extremely similar to the numbers being averaged all season Tuesday night. McCollum scored 19 points on 8-for-17 shooting, with three of those made shots coming from downtown. McCollum also pulled down five boards and dished out four assists as well in the game. McCollum for the […]
Austin Rivers Will Sit Out Again
Los Angeles Clippers guard Austin Rivers (Achilles) has been officially ruled out of Tuesday night's contest against the Memphis Grizzlies. Rivers has been battling a sore Achilles and will undergo another exam, according to head coach Doc Rivers. In his absence, the Clippers will start rookie guard C.J. Williams while guards Milos Teodosic and Lou […]
Ron Baker Ruled Out on Tuesday
New York Knicks guard Ron Baker (eye) has been ruled out of Tuesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Baker suffered the injury when trying to contest a dunk by Anthony Davis in Saturday's victory over the Pelicans. He'll be fitted for a mask, and he's considered day-to-day. Clint Capela only missed two games with […]
Kawhi Leonard is Probable on Tuesday
San Antonio Spurs guard/forward Kawhi Leonard (quadriceps) is probable for Tuesday's game against the New York Knicks. Tuesday's game is the first of a back-to-back set for the Spurs. That means if Leonard does play on Tuesday, he'll likely be sitting out Wednesday's contest against the 76ers. Leonard hasn't been cleared to play in back-to-back […]
Markelle Fultz in Final Stages of His Return
Philadelphia 76ers guard Markelle Fultz (shoulder) is in the final stages of his return-to-play program. Fultz will ramp up his activities at practice and his conditioning work will increase. The Sixers have not yet announced a timetable, but Fultz is getting close. T.J. McConnell and Jerryd Bayless will lose playing time and value once Fultz […]
Andre Roberson Out At Least Three Games
Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Andre Roberson (knee) will not play during the upcoming three-game road trip (Tuesday verus the Lakers, Wednesday versus the Clippers or Sunday versus the Suns). The next chance Roberson will get is next Tuesday against the Blazers. Josh Huestis started on Sunday night but failed to score a single point and […]
Stanley Johnson Doubtful for Wednesday
Detroit Pistons guard/forward Stanley Johnson (hip) is considered doubtful to play in Wednesday's contest against the Miami Heat. It seems likely that Johnson will be forced out of action for the second consecutive game on Wednesday. Reggie Bullock and Luke Kennard have played well lately, and Avery Bradley (groin) is probable to return against Miami. […]
Avery Bradley Probable on Wednesday
Detroit Pistons guard Avery Bradley (groin) is probable to play against the Miami Heat on Wednesday. Bradley has missed seven games with a right groin strain but is on track to return in Wednesday's contest. Reggie Bullock and Luke Kennard have filled in nicely for Bradley but should see their roles reduced. Kennard will take […]
Victor Oladipo Ruled Out on Wednesday
Indiana Pacers guard Victor Oladipo (knee) has been ruled out of Wednesday's contest against the Milwaukee Bucks. There haven't been any updates on his status since the weekend, and it's not a good sign to be ruled out in advance of Wednesday. Oladipo has now missed four straight games, and he could be looking at […]
Eric Gordon Will Start on Wednesday
Houston Rockets shooting guard Eric Gordon will draw the start for James Harden (hamstring) on Wednesday versus the Orlando Magic. Harden will be re-evaluated in two weeks, so Gordon will likely see plenty of starts in the near future. Both Chris Paul and Gordon are going to see heavy usage the next few weeks, and […]
Austin Rivers Questionable on Tuesday
Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Austin Rivers (Achilles) is questionable to play against the Memphis Grizzlies on Tuesday. Rivers missed Sunday's game, but the MRI came back clean, so the Clippers expect Rivers to return soon. The team should have an update on his status before tip-off on Tuesday. If Rivers can't go, Jawun Evans will […]
