Happy Sunday, everyone. After an abbreviated five-game slate on Saturday, the league features a packed schedule to close out the weekend.

LeBron James Out Indefinitely With High-Ankle Sprain
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is out indefinitely with a high-ankle sprain. James injured his ankle during the Lakers' afternoon game against the Hawks and was unable to return. While his X-rays came back negative, Los Angeles will still be without their best player, in addition to Anthony Davis (calf), for at least […]
DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/20/21): NBA DFS Lineups
The NBA takes a bit of a backseat with 16 more NCAA games going on tonight. There are only four games on the main NBA slate tonight with the Hawks and Lakers playing a matinee in L.A. If you're going to mess around with that showdown, I would say build around LeBron and Montrezl Harrell. […]
Montrezl Harrell Leads Lakers In Scoring On Saturday
Los Angeles Lakers forward/center Montrezl Harrell recorded a team-high 23 points in Saturday's loss to Atlanta, with LeBron James making an early exit with an ankle injury. Harrell also grabbed 11 rebounds for his fifth double-double of the season, adding one assist and one block on 10-for-13 shooting. With Anthony Davis (calf) already out for […]
LeBron James Has MRI
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) had an MRI performed on Saturday. The results are still pending. The veteran injured his right ankle during the matinee matchup against the Atlanta Hawks and did not return. This is not good news, especially since James has been riding the league's official injury report for weeks while […]
Dennis Schroder Gets 22 Points In Thursday's Win
Los Angeles Lakers point guard Dennis Schroder had a 22-point performance in Thursday's victory over the Hornets, shooting 9-for-19 from the field and adding seven assists with four rebounds and one steal.

LeBron James Drops 37 Points On Charlotte
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James had one of best shooting nights of the season in Thursday's win over Charlotte, going for a game-high 37 points on 14-for-22 shooting.

Alex Caruso Will Rejoin Rotation Thursday
Los Angeles Lakers point/shooting guard Alex Caruso (concussion) has been cleared to get back into action for Thursday's game against the Hornets. Caruso has missed the team's two prior games as he works his way through the concussion protocol. Only utilized in the deepest of season-long formats, Caruso saw his minutes increase to 22.5 per […]
FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Advice (3/18/21): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice
We’re set for a six-game slate Thursday, one that gives us a bit of a breather from the heavy volume of decisions we had to make on Wednesday’s massive 10-game ledger.

Marc Gasol Remains Sidelined On Thursday
Los Angeles Lakers center Marc Gasol is out against the Charlotte Hornets on Thursday. Gasol has not played since before the All-Star break while in the league's COVID-19 health and safety protocols, but he should be somewhat near a return as players have been typically out for about two weeks, on average, due to the league's […]

LeBron James, Kyle Kuzma, Markieff Morris Probable Tuesday
Los Angeles Lakers forwards LeBron James (ankle), Kyle Kuzma (heel), and Markieff Morris (knee) are probable to suit up against the Timberwolves on Tuesday.

Fantasy Basketball Deep League Adds: Week 12
