Kyle Lowry Ruled Out On Friday
Philadelphia 76ers guard Kyle Lowry (conditioning) will not play in the second half of the team's back-to-back as part of his back-to-competition reconditioning. The veteran point guard made his presence felt during his Philly debut on Thursday as the team looked a lot more organized while he was on the floor. With a familiar coach […]
Pat Connaughton Expected To Play Friday
Milwaukee Bucks guard Pat Connaughton (knee) has been listed as probable for the Friday night matchup against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He's listed with patellar tendinitis in his left knee, so it seems to be a pain tolerance issue at this point. Connaughton hasn't been much of a fantasy-relevant player this season as he has only […]
Duncan Robinson Is Available On Friday
Miami Heat forward Duncan Robinson (shoulder) has been listed on the injury report as available despite his shoulder sprain. The 29-year-old has been a mainstay on the injury report lately, but he has played through any pain as he appeared in the team's last five games which included starting in both games of a back-to-back. […]
Scoot Henderson Ruled Out For Friday
Portland Trail Blazers guard Scoot Henderson (groin) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Denver Nuggets. The rookie guard has been banged up due to injuries this season, but Henderson has played well whenever he's healthy. Recently, head coach Chauncey Billups said that Henderson will remain in the starting five for the […]
Marcus Smart To Be Evaluated In Three Weeks
Memphis Grizzlies guard Marcus Smart (finger) is set to be re-evaluated in three weeks. It sounds like the veteran guard is making solid progress in his recovery from his injured ring finger. However, Smart will need to keep a splint on his finger for the next three weeks before being re-evaluated. Fantasy managers might want […]
Desmond Bane Could Return In A Month
Memphis Grizzlies guard Desmond Bane (ankle) continues to work his way back to the court. Recently, Bane was given a 3-5 week timetable to get back on the floor. That timetable would put Bane back in action around the middle of March. That isn't great news for fantasy managers as it would likely already be […]
Max Christie Will Play On Thursday
Los Angeles Lakers guard Max Christie (ankle) is available ahead of Thursday's game against the Golden State Warriors. Christie returns to the floor after missing each of the last two games before the All-Star break. The absences of Cam Reddish (ankle) and LeBron James (ankle) should mean an increased role for Christie. He's worth a […]
Tyler Herro Dealing With Foot Issue
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (foot) is questionable ahead of Friday's matchup with the Pelicans. The sharpshooter logged 38 minutes against the 76ers over a week ago, Miami's last game before the All-Star break. However, he's dealing with right foot discomfort, which could be enough to keep him off the floor. With Josh Richardson (shoulder) […]
Luka Doncic Officially Good To Go
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (nose) is active on Thursday against Phoenix. He was listed as probable, so there wasn't any real concern from fantasy managers regarding his availability. The 24-year-old has averaged a career-high 34.2 points, 9.5 assists, and 8.8 rebounds this season, meaning he needs to be included in every fantasy lineup imaginable.
Donovan Mitchell Sitting Against Orlando
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (illness) won't play on Thursday against the Magic. He did participate in shootaround on Thursday morning, so that's a good thing regarding his health. However, the 27-year-old will get the night off to rest. Isaac Okoro, averaging 10.8 points, 3.7 rebounds, and 2.4 assists in 24 starts this season, will […]
Bradley Beal Won't Play Against Dallas
Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal (hamstring) won't play on Thursday versus Dallas.

However, head coach Frank Vogel indicated Beal is […]
De'Anthony Melton Will Return On Friday
Philadelphia 76ers guard De'Anthony Melton (back) won't play on Thursday versus the Knicks. However, the 25-year-old will return to the court on Friday against the Cavaliers. Melton has been sidelined for over a month because of a back issue, so there's a good chance he'll be limited in his first game back. With Kyle Lowry […]
Jaden Springer Questionable To Face Bulls
Boston Celtics guard Jaden Springer (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday's matchup against Chicago. The 21-year-old is nursing a right ankle problem and is waiting for a chance to make his team debut after arriving from Philadelphia in a deadline-day deal on Feb. 8.

Los Angeles Lakers guard/forward Cam Reddish (ankle) has been listed as questionable for Thursday's matchup against Golden State. He's been sidelined for 11 games with a right ankle sprain but might be ready to return on Thursday. However, Reddish will find himself in a completely new situation compared to the time he was healthy. The […]
Dante Exum Remains Unavailable Thursday
Dallas Mavericks guard Dante Exum (knee) will sit out an 11th consecutive game on Thursday versus the Suns. He's been sidelined with a right knee issue, and Exum's good comeback campaign has turned into misery, as the Australian guard has missed all but three games in 2024 with health issues. According to Mavericks head coach […]
Tyrese Haliburton Fully Cleared For Thursday
Indiana Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton lingered on the injury report with a hamstring issue for quite a while leading up to the All-Star break. After putting on a show for the hometown fans, Haliburton cleared the injury report and should be a full go for Thursday's matchup against the Detroit Pistons. For fantasy managers that […]
Jaylen Brown No Longer On The Injury Report
Boston Celtics guard/forward Jaylen Brown didn't appear on the injury report heading into their first game fresh off of the All-Star break. Brown and the Celtics will take on a battered and bruised Chicago Bulls team on Thursday. This presents a great matchup for fantasy managers who have a lot of stock in the Celtics […]
Quentin Grimes Doubtful To Make Pistons Debut
Detroit Pistons guard Quentin Grimes (knee) has been listed as doubtful for their Thursday night game against the Indiana Pacers. The former Knick has yet to make his debut for his new team and it seems like everyone will have to wait at least one more game. He hasn't played since January 30 as he […]
Luka Doncic Expected To Face The Suns
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (nose) is listed as probable for Thursday's matchup with the Phoenix Suns. As expected, the 24-year-old has had an MVP-caliber season, averaging a career-high 34.2 points with 9.5 assists, 8.8 boards, and 1.4 steals. He's also shot 37.5% from deep, his best mark since entering the league in 2018. Doncic […]
Bradley Beal Questionable For Thursday Evening
Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal (hamstring) is questionable heading into Thursday's showdown with the Dallas Mavericks. The veteran suffered a left hamstring injury during a game versus the Sacramento Kings and didn't suit up the following night against Detroit, the final game for the Suns heading into the All-Star break. Without question, Beal has been […]
Jalen Suggs Off Injury Report
Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs (groin) is not listed on the injury report, indicating his availability for Thursday's game against the Cavaliers. The 22-year-old was ruled out late before the team's last game before the All-Star break but appears ready to play as the season resumes. With Markelle Fultz (knee) sidelined, Suggs may see a […]
Markelle Fultz Out Thursday
Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The 25-year-old missed the Magic's final game before the All-Star break and will continue to sit out as he manages his knee injury at the start of the stretch run. With Gary Harris (calf) also unavailable, Cole Anthony […]
Donovan Mitchell Questionable Thursday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (illness) is currently listed as questionable for the team's upcoming game against the Orlando Magic tomorrow. Despite playing 14 minutes and scoring 16 points in the All-Star Game, the 27-year-old might sit out Cleveland's first game after the break due to illness. Should Mitchell be unable to play, Caris LeVert […]
Cade Cunningham Likely To Play Versus Indiana
Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham (knee) is probable for Thursday night against Indiana. The designation is nothing for fantasy managers to be alarmed by, considering he's been on the injury report since returning from a lengthy absence caused by a knee injury. Of course, anything can happen, so Cunningham could miss this one. If that's […]
Aaron Nesmith Won't Play Thursday
Indiana Pacers forward Aaron Nesmith (ankle) will not be available for Thursday's game against the Detroit Pistons. The 24-year-old sustained the injury in the team's last game before the All-Star break against the Raptors. Fortunately, the injury is not as severe as initially feared, but Nesmith is still expected to miss some time, although it […]
Brandon Ingram Misses Practice Wednesday
New Orleans Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram (illness) was absent from the team's practice on Wednesday, and his status remains uncertain for the Pelicans' game at home against the Rockets on Thursday. If Ingram is unable to play, Trey Murphy and Jordan Hawkins are the most probable candidates to see an uptick in minutes. Additionally, C.J. […]
Kentavious Caldwell-Pope Cleared For Action
Denver Nuggets guard/forward Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (hamstring) is expected to play on Thursday against Washington. The former Wizard has logged only nine minutes across Denver's last four games due to a hamstring issue, missing three of them completely, but the All-Star break has given him enough time to get healthy. Caldwell-Pope practiced fully on Tuesday and […]
Mikal Bridges Committed To Brooklyn
According to Brian Lewis of the New York Post, Brooklyn Nets guard Mikal Bridges is "100%" committed to the team. The former Sun recently expressed his disapproval of the offense under Jacque Vaughn, who has since been relieved of his head coaching duties. However, it appears Bridges plans to remain in Brooklyn. "I'm here now […]
Lester Quinones Getting A Standard Contract
According to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN, the Warriors will convert the contract of guard Lester Quinones to a standard deal. The two-way player has appeared in 19 games for Golden State this season.
