Tyler Herro Back In The Lineup Versus Charlotte
Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (shoulder) will play on Sunday versus the Hornets. The 23-year-old didn't suit up for Friday's win over the Orlando Magic because of a shoulder issue. Fortunately, it will only cost him a game. The 23-year-old is having the best season of his career, averaging 22.1 points, 5.5 rebounds, 4.5 assists, […]
Desmond Bane Won't Play Versus The Knicks
Memphis Grizzlies guard Desmond Bane (ankle) won't play on Saturday versus the New York Knicks. The 25-year-old logged 23 minutes on Friday versus the Clippers.

Stephen Curry Resting Versus Milwaukee
Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry won't play on Saturday night versus the Milwaukee Bucks. The veteran sharpshooter logged 35 minutes in Friday's win over the Chicago Bulls, finishing with 27 points and nine assists. However, he won't be available on Saturday to rest. With Chris Paul (hand) and Moses Moody (calf) also out, Brandin […]
Dejounte Murray Could Miss Saturday's Game
Atlanta Hawks guard Dejounte Murray (hamstring) is questionable for Saturday's matchup against the Washington Wizards. Murray was questionable heading into Wednesday's overtime win over the Philadelphia 76ers because of right hamstring tightness.

Josh Green Battling An Illness
Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Josh Green (illness) is considered questionable for Saturday's clash with New Orleans. The 23-year-old is trying to fight off an illness bug.

Brandon Miller Exits With Back Problem
Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Brandon Miller failed to complete Friday's contest against San Antonio due to a lower back contusion.

The Hornets […]
Desmond Bane Injures Ankle On Friday Night
Memphis Grizzlies guard Desmond Bane (ankle) exited Friday's loss to the Clippers. The 25-year-old, who finished with 15 points, sprained his left ankle after stepping on Kawhi Leonard's foot near the end of the third quarter, ending his night after 23 minutes of work. Head coach Taylor Jenkins couldn't provide an update on Bane's health. […]
Dante Exum Still Out On Saturday
Dallas Mavericks guard Dante Exum (foot) remains out on Saturday against the Pelicans. The 28-year-old will now miss his sixth consecutive contest because of a right plantar sprain, which is unfortunate, considering he's averaged 14.5 points, 4.4 assists, and 3.6 rebounds this season. With Luka Doncic (ankle) also sidelined and Josh Green (illness) questionable, Tim […]
Shaedon Sharpe Will Not Suit Up On Friday
Portland Trail Blazers guard Shaedon Sharpe (groin) has been ruled out with groin soreness on Friday.

Trey Murphy III Now Probable Against Nuggets
New Orleans Pelicans guard Trey Murphy III (knee) has been upgraded from questionable to probable against the Denver Nuggets on Friday.

He's been fantasy-relevant in deep leagues […]
CJ McCollum Upgraded To Probable On Friday
New Orleans Pelicans guard CJ McCollum (ankle) has gone from questionable to probable on Friday along with four other key players for the team.

Tim Hardaway Jr. To Start On Thursday
Dallas Mavericks guard Tim Hardaway Jr. will move into the starting five ahead of Thursday's game against the New York Knicks. The Mavs will give Hardaway the starting nod with Luka Doncic (ankle) on the sideline for this game. This means that Jaden Hardy will come off the bench, so his fantasy value won't be […]

Luka Doncic Sits Out Thursday's Game
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (ankle) won't play on Thursday against New York. He battled through an ankle sprain in Tuesday's matchup against Memphis but will take Thursday off.

Trail Blazers vs. Thunder NBA DFS Showdown Slate Picks, Value Plays - Thursday, January 11
Happy Thursday, RotoBallers! Welcome back to our weekly showdown. Last week would have been an absolute banger had Michael Porter Jr. shown up to the game. Jonathan Kuminga also not playing in the fourth quarter didn't help either and I think he agreed after his post-game comments. However, if you caught my lineup in the […]
Kevin Huerter Won't Return On Wednesday
Sacramento Kings guard Kevin Huerter (ankle) won't return to Wednesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets.

Jrue Holiday Questionable For Wednesday Night
Boston Celtics guard Jrue Holiday (elbow) is questionable ahead of Wednesday's game versus the Timberwolves. The 33-year-old veteran continues to deal with a right elbow sprain, an injury that's bothered him for weeks.

Marcus Smart Injures Finger Against The Mavs
Memphis Grizzlies guard Marcus Smart (finger) exited Tuesday's win over the Dallas Mavericks. He didn't return. Ja Morant (shoulder) is done for the remainder of the 2023-24 campaign, and Jaren Jackson Jr. (knee) wasn't available, so Smart was expected to be a top producer for the Grizzlies on Tuesday night. He met expectations, amassing 23 […]
