RJ Barrett Ruled Out For Friday's Game

Toronto Raptors guard RJ Barrett (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. The Raptors have decided to take a cautious approach after Mitchell played 29 minutes during their last game. As a result, Jordan Nwora will move into the starting five for the second straight night. A move to […]

Donovan Mitchell Won't Play On Friday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (illness) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. This marks the second game in a row that Mitchell has missed due to an illness. Isaac Okoro figures to move into the starting five once again with Mitchell sidelined. He's not a great streaming option, but […]

Jamal Murray To Miss Friday's Game Against Portland

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (leg) is ruled out for Friday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. The 27-year-old, who sustained a tibia injury, also missed the final game before the All-Star break. As a precaution, he will sit out the second night of a back-to-back. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (finger) is questionable, potentially leaving Denver without […]

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope Questionable Friday

Denver Nuggets wing Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (finger) is officially listed as questionable for Friday's matchup against the Portland Trail Blazers. The 31-year-old departed Thursday's game for Denver after a 15-minute stint, but the extent of his injury remains uncertain. With Jamal Murray (leg) sidelined, players like Reggie Jackson, Christian Braun, and Justin Holiday could see extended […]

Gary Payton II Expected To Play On Friday

Golden State Warriors guard Gary Payton II (illness) has been tagged as probable on Friday for their game against the Charlotte Hornets. Payton was listed as questionable for the same illness in their last game against the Los Angeles Lakers and was eventually downgraded, but it seems like he's breaking out of the sickness enough […]

Donovan Mitchell Remains Questionable Friday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (illness) remains questionable for Friday's game against the 76ers. The 27-year-old missed Cleveland's first game back from the All-Star break and is in question again for their matchup in Philadelphia. If Mitchell remains out, it's likely Isaac Okoro will start once more, with Darius Garland and Caris LeVert expected to […]

LaMelo Ball Remains Sidelined On Friday

Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball (ankle) will miss his 13th consecutive game on Friday as the team has ruled him out again due to tendinopathy in his right ankle. The up-and-coming point guard hasn't been able to shed the ankle issues this season and consistently remain on the court. He's only appeared in 22 games […]

Brandon Ingram Questionable Friday

New Orleans Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram (illness) is officially listed as questionable for Friday's matchup against the Heat. The 26-year-old sat out Thursday's game against the Rockets due to illness and may miss his second consecutive game. In his absence on Thursday, Trey Murphy III started and is likely to do so again if Ingram […]

Markelle Fultz Won't Suit Up On Saturday

Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (knee) has been ruled out of the Saturday matchup against the Detroit Pistons. He hasn't been able to play in either one of the last two games for the Magic and he'll miss a third as he's being held out for injury maintenance reasons on his left knee. Fultz has […]

RJ Barrett Questionable Friday

Toronto Raptors wing RJ Barrett (knee) is officially listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Hawks. The 23-year-old played 29 minutes in the Raptors' 121-93 win over the Nets last night, contributing 12 points, five rebounds, and seven assists. Should Toronto opt to rest him on the second night of a back-to-back, Bruce Brown […]

Tyler Herro A Game-Time Decision Friday

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (foot) is officially listed as a game-time decision Friday before the team's matchup against the Pelicans. Jimmy Butler (personal) returns for the Heat tonight, likely taking over Herro's spot in the starting lineup from their last game if Herro is out. In the event Herro is sidelined, Jaime Jaquez Jr. […]

Bradley Beal Considered Doubtful Against Rockets

Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal (hamstring) has been listed as doubtful on the injury report ahead of their Friday night matchup against the Houston Rockets. The 30-year-old missed their last game before the All-Star break and missed the first half of the back-to-back on Thursday due to the same tightness that he's experiencing in his […]

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. He tweaked his hamstring during a meeting with the Kings and didn't play the following night against Detroit, the Suns final game before the All-Star break. There was talk he'd be good to suit up. 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. Springer played well in his final few outings as a […]

Gary Payton II Battling An Illness, Questionable Thursday

Golden State Warriors guard/forward Gary Payton II might have to come out of the lineup on Thursday against the Lakers due to an illness. The defensive specialist returned to action from a hamstring strain right before the All-Star break and featured in four consecutive games. However, it looks like he might have to sit out […]

Cam Reddish Questionable For Thursday's Action

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 […]
