Fantasy Basketball Early-Week Streamers: Week 10

After an exciting start, it's Week 10 of the 2023-2024 NBA season. While you want to have faith in the players you drafted, don't get too attached. You may feel confident about your draft decisions, but remember: stars are born and eroded every day. Take a moment to see what's on the other side of […]

Josh Richardson Expected To Play Versus Philly

Miami Heat guard Josh Richardson (back) is expected to suit up on Monday versus the Philadelphia 76ers. The 30-year-old is probable after battling back spasms. Unfortunately, he has averaged 10.0 points and shooting a career-low 32.7 points this season, so his expected availability for the Christmas meeting with Philly won't mean much for many fantasy […]

Brandin Podziemski To Play On Saturday

Golden State Warriors guard Brandin Podziemski (back) has been cleared to play ahead of Saturday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. As expected, Podziemski will play after being listed as probable heading into this game due to a lower back strain. The Warriors are glad to have Podziemski as he has been playing a bigger […]

Cody Martin Could Make His Season Debut On Saturday

Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Cody Martin (knee) is listed as questionable for Saturday's clash with the Nuggets. The 28-year-old has yet to play in 2023-24, but it looks like he could be ready for his season debut. Martin made only seven appearances a season ago and hasn't appeared in the NBA since Jan. 14 due to […]

Kawhi Leonard Questionable Saturday

Los Angeles Clippers guard/forward Kawhi Leonard (hip) is considered questionable for Saturday's game against Boston. The veteran star just skipped his first game of the season with a hip issue, and it looks like he could be out for another one against the Celtics. Amir Coffey got the start when Leonard was out on Thursday […]

Malik Monk Plans To Play Friday Against Suns

Sacramento Kings guard Malik Monk (foot) has been listed as questionable on the injury report and still hasn't officially been changed to active just yet. According to Mark Haynes of the Sacramento Observer, however, Monk plans to play barring any setbacks. He's been dealing with some right foot irritation, so it's hard to tell how […]

Jalen Suggs Iffy For Saturday With Wrist Sprain

Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs (wrist) has officially been tagged as questionable for their Saturday night matchup against the Indiana Pacers with a left wrist sprain. The 22-year-old was forced to miss their last contest against the Milwaukee Bucks on Thursday, but that might be the only time he needs to miss with this injury. […]

Patrick Beverley Tagged As Questionable On Friday

Philadelphia 76ers guard Patrick Beverley (heel) has received a questionable tag for their Friday night contest against the Toronto Raptors. Since De'Anthony Melton (thigh) is also marked as questionable, this could leave the Sixers' backcourt very thin. Beverley is a candidate to move into the starting lineup if Melton can't suit up, so fantasy managers […]

Dennis Smith Jr. Will Return On Friday Against Nuggets

Brooklyn Nets guard Dennis Smith Jr. (back) missed the last seven games due to an upper back sprain but he confirmed before tip-off that he would be available to play on Friday night. While Smith has been out, the Nets have lacked a reserve for their backcourt. They've had bigger lineups with Day'Ron Sharpe, Trendon […]

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Stuffs The Stat Sheet Against Clippers

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander took over and helped beat one of the hottest teams in the league on Thursday night. During the 134-115 win over the Los Angeles Clippers, Gilgeous-Alexander posted 31 points, eight rebounds, four assists, four steals, two blocks, and one turnover. At this point, he's now the number-one ranked player […]

Anfernee Simons Drops 41 Points In Loss

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons put up a season-high and came four points shy of his career-high in a one-point loss to the Washington Wizards on Thursday. The 24-year-old registered 41 points on 15-for-28 shooting from the floor and 7-for-14 from beyond the arc. He also chipped in seven assists, four rebounds, and turned […]

De'Anthony Melton Listed As Questionable Against Raptors

Philadelphia 76ers guard De'Anthony Melton (thigh) has been tagged as questionable for the Friday night matchup against the Toronto Raptors due to the thigh contusion that he suffered on Wednesday. He exited their last contest against the Minnesota Timberwolves after playing for 16 minutes. Melton has been an important part of the team's defense in […]

Josh Giddey Exits Thursday In Second Quarter

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Josh Giddey (ankle) saw 14 minutes on the floor against the Los Angeles Clippers on Thursday before he sprained his ankle in the second quarter. After going back to the locker room, Cason Wallace took his place in the lineup and Giddey was unable to return. He finished the game with […]

Killian Hayes Probable Thursday

Detroit Pistons guard Killian Hayes (illness) is probable for Thursday's game against Utah. He was out Monday versus Atlanta with an illness, and Pistons head coach Monty Williams admitted on Wednesday that Hayes isn't 100 percent, but he is apparently ready to battle through the illness on Thursday. Hayes has contributed 9.1 points, 3.1 rebounds, […]

De'Anthony Melton Won't Return On Wednesday

Philadelphia 76ers guard De'Anthony Melton (thigh) won't return to Wednesday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Melton played 16 minutes in the first half before exiting due to a thigh contusion. The Sixers are going to take the cautious approach and hold him out for the rest of the game. Patrick Beverley started in the second […]

Marcus Smart Doubtful For Thursday

Memphis Grizzlies guard Marcus Smart (foot) is listed as doubtful for Thursday's game against the Indiana Pacers. There was hope earlier this week that Smart would return, but it seems unlikely now ahead of Thursday's contest. Smart continues to deal with a left foot sprain, but hopefully can return on Saturday, assuming he's unable to […]

Paul George Ruled Out On Wednesday

Los Angeles Clippers guard Paul George (illness) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. He was questionable coming into this game, but will ultimately sit out due to an illness. The Clippers will likely use a committee approach to help fill the void. That means, Norman Powell, Terance Mann, Bones Hyland, […]

Seth Curry Questionable For Wednesday

Dallas Mavericks guard Seth Curry (back) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. The veteran guard was a late addition to the injury report due to back spasms. He's a solid option for three pointers, but doesn't offer much value outside of that. Curry hasn't been a huge part of […]

Andrew Nembhard Remains Out Wednesday

Indiana Pacers guard Andrew Nembhard (knee) will remain on the shelf Wednesday versus Charlotte. He was seen in practice on Tuesday, but a bone bruise on his right knee will keep Nembhard sidelined. He last played on Dec. 7. It looks like Nembhard isn't far away from returning, but T.J. McConnell will continue to get […]

Bones Hyland Questionable Wednesday

Los Angeles Clippers guard Bones Hyland (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's matchup against Dallas. He's had trouble with his right knee and could be unavailable for a third straight game. However, Hyland has played in only one of the last eight games, logging nine minutes in a cameo against Sacramento, so his absence doesn't affect […]

Paul George Tagged As Questionable For Wednesday

Los Angeles Clippers guard Paul George (illness) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. George recently missed a game due to a groin injury, but that appears to be behind him. Hopefully, this is a minor illness and it won't force George to miss any time. Otherwise, Norman Powell would likely […]

Alex Caruso Probable For Wednesday

Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (ankle) is currently listed as probable for Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Caruso continues to deal with a lingering left ankle sprain. Ayo Dosunmu started during Monday's game despite Caruso being active. However, Caruso still played starter minutes, but came off the bench. If healthy, Caruso should continue […]

Grayson Allen To Play On Tuesday

Phoenix Suns guard Grayson Allen (hamstring) will suit up for Tuesday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Allen was uncertain to play coming into this game due to hamstring soreness. Luckily, he'll be able to play and will slide right into the starting five with Bradley Beal (ankle) unavailable for this game. Allen will continue […]

Cade Cunningham Goes Off For Career-High 43 Points

Detroit Pistons guard Cade Cunningham had a monster game against Atlanta on Monday but couldn't save the team from a 24th consecutive loss. He put up a career-high 43 points in a 130-124 loss with five rebounds, seven assists, three steals, and one block. In 44 minutes of action, Cunningham nailed three three-point bombs with […]

James Harden Catches Fire Against Indiana

Los Angeles Clippers guard James Harden had a vintage performance against the Indiana Pacers on Monday, hitting 8-for-11 from deep for a 35-point effort in a 151-127 win. He finished 12-for-16 overall from the field and ended up just one assist short of a third consecutive double-double despite logging only 28 minutes in a blowout […]

Malik Beasley Likely To Return To Action Tuesday

Milwaukee Bucks guard/forward Malik Beasley (illness) is listed as probable for Tuesday's clash with the Spurs. He's missed the last two games with an illness but appears to be feeling better and ready to go. Andre Jackson Jr. had a pair of impressive outings in the starting unit as Beasley's replacement, but he will now […]
