Happy Thursday, RotoBallers! Welcome back to our weekly showdown.

Bennedict Mathurin Listed As Questionable Thursday

Indiana Pacers guard/forward Bennedict Mathurin (ankle) is considered questionable for Thursday's clash with the Kings.

Ayo Dosunmu Questionable For Thursday

Chicago Bulls guard Ayo Dosunmu (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against Toronto. He's dealing with a left shoulder issue, which limited Dosunmu to only a 19-minute outing on Monday versus Cleveland. However, according to Bulls head coach Billy Donovan, Dosunmu is "totally fine" after undergoing imaging on his shoulder. The young guard […]

Gradey Dick Questionable Wednesday

Toronto Raptors shooting guard Gradey Dick (thumb) is questionable for Wednesday's meeting with Miami. The rookie has sprained his right thumb. Dick was a high draft pick in the summer but hasn't made much of an impact for the Raptors during his first year in the league. He's seen the court in just 20 games, […]

Gary Trent Jr. Questionable For Wednesday

Toronto Raptors guard Gary Trent Jr. (illness) is questionable for Wednesday's game against Miami. He's been struck by an illness and couldn't play Monday versus Boston. Now, Gary Trent Jr. might have to sit out a second consecutive content. The 24-year-old is averaging close to 26 minutes a night off the Toronto bench this season […]

Josh Hart Iffy For Wednesday's Game

New York Knicks guard/forward Josh Hart (knee) is in danger of missing his first game of the season Wednesday against Houston. He's listed on the injury report as questionable with left patellar tendinopathy. Hart is New York's biggest contributor off the bench, and his absence would open up a large chunk of minutes. Quentin Grimes […]

Bojan Bogdanovic Likely Returning On Wednesday

Detroit Pistons guard/forward Bojan Bogdanovic (calf) is on track to return to the court Wednesday versus Minnesota. The team has listed him as probable for the game. Bogdanovic has been unavailable for two games while nursing left calf soreness. The Croatian veteran is once again among Detroit's top scorers in 2023-24, averaging 19.8 points per […]

Anthony Edwards Uncertain For Wednesday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards (knee) is listed as questionable ahead of Wednesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Edwards played 38 minutes on Sunday with a wrap around his left knee. Given how poorly the Pistons are playing right now, the Wolves may decide to give Edwards a rest day. Fantasy managers will have to […]

Caris LeVert Lands On Injury Report

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Caris LeVert (wrist) is listed as questionable ahead of Wednesday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. LeVert finds himself on the injury report due to right wrist soreness. He looked fine during his 30 minutes of playing time against the Chicago Bulls on Monday. The expectation is that LeVert will play, but fantasy […]

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope Questionable Tuesday

Denver Nuggets guard/forward Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (back/neck) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's battle with Philadelphia. He continues to deal with a cervicothoracic strain. The questionable tag leaves his status up in the air, but Caldwell-Pope has played in 14 consecutive games, and the injury doesn't appear to have affected him much. The veteran has scored […]

Ayo Dosunmu Aggravates Shoulder Injury

Chicago Bulls guard Ayo Dosunmu (shoulder) missed the fourth quarter versus Cleveland on Monday after aggravating a shoulder injury. He finished the contest as Chicago's leading bench scorer, putting up 10 points in 19 minutes on 3-for-7 shooting. Dosunmu noted after the game that he's hopeful he can play Thursday versus the Raptors. Jevon Carter […]

Bennedict Mathurin Hurts Left Ankle Monday

Indiana Pacers guard/forward Bennedict Mathurin sprained his left ankle against Utah on Monday and didn't finish the game. It was an awful ending to Mathurin's first start since Nov. 19. He had 11 points in the contest with 5-for-10 shooting. Mathurin has averaged the fifth-most minutes among Pacers players this season and is sitting third […]

Jamal Murray Listed As Questionable For Tuesday

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (tibia) has popped up on the injury report and has been listed as questionable with bilateral tibia inflammation. The 26-year-old hasn't missed a game since December 12 and was able to play a full 36 minutes on Sunday in an eight-point win over the Indiana Pacers. With Murray's injury history, […]

Gary Trent Jr. Ruled Out On Monday

Toronto Raptors guard Gary Trent Jr. (illness) wasn't listed on the injury report until later Monday evening and he was already ruled out with a non-COVID illness. He's been receiving around 25 minutes a night, so it leaves a big hole in the bench unit. Gradey Dick (thumb) was also ruled out, so the backcourt […]

Jimmy Butler Will Return on Monday

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (toe) has been upgraded from questionable to available on Monday and will play his first game since December 30. He's actually only played one game since December 18 due to the right-toe MP joint sprain he's been dealing with, so fantasy managers will welcome back a player of his caliber […]

Max Strus Upgraded To Active On Monday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Max Strus (knee) has been upgraded and will play on Monday night against the Chicago Bulls. The 27-year-old was only able to play around seven minutes in their last game against the Brooklyn Nets. This comes as great news since Darius Garland (jaw) remains sidelined. Strus will also remain in the starting […]

Franz Wagner Remains Out Monday

Orlando Magic guard/forward Franz Wagner (ankle) will miss a sixth game in a row Monday versus the Knicks. He continues to deal with a right ankle sprain suffered on Jan. 3 in a game against Sacramento. Wagner's injury has helped Chuma Okeke and Caleb Houstan break into the starting five. Both players have had a […]

Jaylen Brown Could Miss Monday's Action

Boston Celtics guard/forward Jaylen Brown (knee) is back on the injury report ahead of Monday's clash with Toronto. He's considered questionable for the contest due to right knee hyperextension. Al Horford or Sam Hauser should get the start if Brown can't play on Monday. It's also worth noting that Kristaps Porzingis had his best game […]

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Questionable Monday

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (knee) is questionable to play against the Lakers on Monday. The Thunder star has sprained his right knee and could be absent for the first time this season.

Desmond Bane To Miss At Least Six Weeks

Memphis Grizzlies guard Desmond Bane (ankle) has been diagnosed with a grade 3 ankle sprain and the team announced that he will be re-evaluated in six weeks. This comes as a huge blow to the already depleted Grizzlies that will deal without Ja Morant (shoulder) for the rest of the season. Marcus Smart (finger) is […]

CJ McCollum, Trey Murphy III Probable To Face Mavericks

New Orleans Pelicans guard CJ McCollum (ankle) and Trey Murphy III (knee) have both been tagged as probable to play against the Dallas Mavericks on Monday.

De'Anthony Melton Ruled Out Against Rockets

Philadelphia 76ers guard De'Anthony Melton (back) has already been ruled out for the team's game against the Houston Rockets on Monday despite playing the last two games on a minutes restriction.

Jaime Jaquez Jr. Leaves On Sunday, Ruled Out For Monday

Miami Heat forward Jaime Jaquez Jr. (groin) could only play the first half of the game against the Charlotte Hornets on Sunday after he suffered a groin strain.
