Isaac Okoro Set To Miss Game Versus Kings
Cleveland Cavaliers forward Isaac Okoro (knee) will miss his fourth consecutive game due to knee soreness as the team has already ruled him out for Monday's contest against the Sacramento Kings. The 22-year-old last played on November 3 until his knee started flaring up and forced him to sit out. While he remains sidelined, Caris […]
De'Aaron Fox Considered Doubtful Against Cavaliers
Sacramento Kings guard De'Aaron Fox (ankle) is officially listed as doubtful to play against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Monday night. The star guard has been out since October 29 as he continues to deal with a right ankle sprain, but the fact that he's considered doubtful instead of ruled out already is a good sign […]
Gary Trent Jr. Questionable Against Washington
Toronto Raptors guard Gary Trent Jr. (foot) is questionable ahead of Monday's matchup with the Washington Wizards. The 24-year-old has a case of Plantar Fasciitis, forcing him to miss Toronto's previous game against the Boston Celtics. As a result, Malachi Flynn received some additional work, finishing with 12 points in 23 minutes. Unfortunately, Trent has […]
Gary Trent Jr. Tagged As Questionable For Monday
Toronto Raptors guard Gary Trent Jr. (foot) has received a questionable tag for the team's game on Monday against the Washington Wizards. He's currently dealing with plantar fasciitis in his right foot which has been known to keep players out for a while as a nagging injury that lasts quite a bit. The good news […]
Anthony Edwards Will Play Against Warriors
Minnesota Timberwolves forward Anthony Edwards (illness) has been upgraded from questionable to active and will play against the Golden State Warriors on Sunday. Edwards was dealing with an illness, but it seems that it was not severe enough to keep him off of the court. The 22-year-old has taken a big leap so far this […]
Alex Caruso Downgraded To Out Against Pistons
Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (toe) has been downgraded from questionable to out on Sunday and will not face the Detroit Pistons. The 29-year-old hasn't missed a game this season up until now. He's played a Swiss-Army knife type of role for the team and has been a very good source of almost every stat […]
Bradley Beal Will Play On Sunday
Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal (back) will be active on Sunday against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He was previously listed as probable, so this doesn't come as a complete surprise. The Suns will need him while Devin Booker (calf) and Eric Gordon (shoulder) have both been ruled out. This will be Beal's third game with […]
Devin Booker, Eric Gordon Downgraded To Out On Sunday
Phoenix Suns guards Devin Booker (calf) and Eric Gordon (shoulder) were both officially downgraded to out on Sunday and will not suit up against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Booker was already considered doubtful, but Gordon was tagged as questionable, so it seemed he had a chance to play at first. While they're on the sidelines, […]
Jaden Ivey Cleared For Action Against Chicago
Detroit Pistons guard Jaden Ivey (illness) will play in Sunday's meeting with the Chicago Bulls. The 21-year-old missed his last four games because of an illness. However, he had been phased out of Monty Williams' rotation before his extended absence, so fantasy managers shouldn't expect a productive showing, even more so with Alec Burks (forearm) […]
Alec Burks Returning On Sunday
Detroit Pistons guard Alec Burks (forearm) will play on Sunday against the Bulls. The 32-year-old missed his previous seven games because of a forearm contusion, which was unfortunate considering he was averaging 15 points before going down with the injury. That said, there's a chance he could see fewer minutes than usual. However, Burks should […]
Anthony Edwards Questionable On Sunday
Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards (illness) is questionable for Sunday's matchup with the Warriors. The 22-year-old is under the weather. However, Edwards is one of the most durable players in the NBA, so it would be surprising if he didn't suit up against Golden State. That said, if he doesn't play, Nickeil Alexander-Walker, averaging 3.5 […]
Kelly Oubre Jr. Suffers A Fractured Rib
Philadelphia 76ers guard Kelly Oubre Jr. (rib) will be re-evaluated in one week after getting struck by a car while walking near his home on Saturday night. He suffered a fractured rib, which is better news than expected, especially since there weren't many details surrounding his injury initially. But fortunately, it appears Oubre could be […]
Brandon Miller Won't Return On Sunday
Charlotte Hornets guard Brandon Miller (ankle) won't return to Sunday's game against the Knicks. The rookie started in this one, amassing 11 points and three rebounds in 10 minutes. Unfortunately, he tweaked his left ankle in the second quarter and was ruled out shortly after. It's not an ideal situation for the Hornets, considering the […]
Kelly Oubre Jr. Struck By A Car, Out Sunday
Philadelphia 76ers guard Kelly Oubre Jr. (undisclosed) was struck by a car while walking near his residence on Saturday night. He was transported to a Philadelphia hospital after suffering undisclosed injuries. Fortunately, the 27-year-old has since been released. Oubre has played well in his first season with the Sixers, averaging 16.3 points, 5.1 rebounds, and […]
Eric Gordon Could Miss Sunday's Game
Phoenix Suns guard Eric Gordon (shoulder) is currently listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The veteran guard is currently battling left shoulder soreness. The Suns are likely already going to be without Devin Booker (calf) who is doubtful for this game. The loss of Gordon would put the Suns in […]
Jaden Ivey Might Miss Another Game Sunday
Detroit Pistons guard Jaden Ivey (illness) is questionable for Sunday's Central Division showdown with the Chicago Bulls. The 21-year-old is battling a non-COVID-related illness, keeping him off the floor for the team's previous four games. Unfortunately, Ivey has struggled this season, averaging 11.8 points, 2.5 rebounds, and 2.5 assists, all down from his rookie campaign. […]
Alex Caruso Dealing With A Toe Injury
Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (toe) is questionable for Sunday's meeting with the visiting Pistons. He's battling a left toe strain, although he still managed to amass 19 points, three steals, and two blocks in the Bulls' recent overtime loss to the Phoenix Suns. While Caruso hasn't been a consistent fantasy performer in most statistical […]
Terry Rozier Won't Return On Sunday
Charlotte Hornets guard Terry Rozier (groin) is out again on Sunday against the Knicks. There was chatter he'd be back by now. However, he'll miss his fourth straight game on Sunday. As a result, Brandon Miller, averaging 10.7 points and 1.0 steals in three starts, should continue to fill in during Rozier's absence. Unfortunately, the […]
Gary Trent Jr. Sidelined Against Boston
Toronto Raptors guard Gary Trent Jr. (foot) won't play on Saturday night against the Celtics. The 24-year-old has a case of Plantar Fasciitis in his right foot, so he'll miss his first game of the year. Unfortunately, he hasn't played the best this season, averaging 10.4 points, a significant drop from the 2022-23 campaign, meaning […]
Sam Merrill Remains Out On Saturday
Cleveland Cavaliers shooting guard Sam Merrill (illness) won't be available for a second consecutive game Saturday against the Warriors. The 27-year-old is battling an illness and still needs more time off after already missing Wednesday's matchup versus Oklahoma City. Merrill has made only three appearances this season, logging 21 minutes in total, so his absence […]
Isaac Okoro Misses Third Straight Game
Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Isaac Okoro (knee) won't be available for a third straight game Saturday versus Golden State. He's on the injury report with a left knee issue. The 22-year-old kicked off the campaign in fine form, but he'll be running with the second unit this season, and it will limit Okoro's fantasy value, which […]
Wesley Matthews Questionable For Saturday
Atlanta Hawks shooting guard Wesley Matthews (calf) is listed as questionable for Saturday's encounter with the Heat. The 37-year-old has yet to play this season but could be ready to make his team debut on Saturday. Matthews has been kept out of the lineup by a calf strain. The Hawks are off to a good […]
Gary Harris Considered Questionable Saturday
Orlando Magic guard/forward Gary Harris (groin) is questionable for Saturday's matchup against Milwaukee. The veteran has been on the shelf for three games and is trying to overcome a groin strain. Harris has contributed 8.0 points in 17.8 minutes off the Magic bench this season. His injury has given rookie Anthony Black a chance to […]
Bradley Beal Will Play Against The Lakers
Phoenix Suns guard Bradley Beal (back) is officially active for Friday's matchup versus the Los Angeles Lakers. Beal finally made his official debut with the Suns on Wednesday after missing the start of the season with back spasms. He logged only 24 minutes, scoring 13 points while shooting 3-for-12 from the field. The 30-year-old should […]
Draymond Green, Gary Payton II Both Available For Saturday's Game
Golden State Warriors forward and guard Draymond Green and Gary Payton II both participated in practice on Friday and Steve Kerr said they both will be available for their Saturday game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Green is a little more important when it comes to the fantasy basketball side of things, but Payton could be […]
Jaden Ivey Set To Miss Another Game On Friday
Detroit Pistons guard Jaden Ivey (illness) has been ruled out of the team's in-season tournament game against the Philadelphia 76ers on Friday night. His type of illness and timetable to return hasn't been disclosed by the team just yet, so it's unclear how many games Ivey will end up missing. He's missed the last three […]
