Devin Booker Questionable Against Mavs
Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (ribs) is questionable to play against the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday. The X-rays came back negative, but it would not be too surprising if Booker sat out one more game. Marquese Chriss (ankle) is also listed as questionable for this contest. Isaiah Canaan and Dragan Bender would get another chance […]
Alex Len Won't Play Wednesday
Phoenix Suns forward/center Alex Len (ankle) will not play against the Dallas Mavericks on Wednesday. Len is dealing with an ankle injury and has missed three of the last four contests. Greg Monroe will head back into the rotation and could see big minutes on Wednesday. Dragan Bender will be mixed in as well, and […]
FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (1/29/18): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice
I wouldn't dare open with "happy Monday!", but let us celebrate this nice little six game slate on the 29th of January. It's something to look forward to, and I'll help you prepare. The Monday night slate is the only thing that gets me through the cubicle life, and it's extra pleasant when the slate […]
Alex Len Questionable Against Memphis
Phoenix Suns forward/center Alex Len (ankle) is questionable to play against the Memphis Grizzlies on Monday. Len has yet to practice and has missed three straight games with a lingering ankle issue. Most likely Len will be on the sidelines once again on Monday. Greg Monroe and Dragan Bender would see an increase in playing […]
Troy Daniels is Questionable on Monday
Phoenix Suns guard Troy Daniels (back) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Daniels went 1-for-4 from the field on Sunday and just did not look quite right. The Suns may decide to be cautious with Daniels in the second game of a back-to-back set. Josh Jackson or Isaiah Canaan would […]
Marquese Chriss is Questionable Against Memphis
Phoenix Suns forward/center Marquese Chriss (ankle) is listed as questionable for Monday's contest against the Memphis Grizzlies. He appeared to tweak his ankle near the end of Sunday's loss to the Houston Rockets. It would not be too surprising to see Chriss sit out the second game of a back-to-back set. Dragan Bender could join […]
Devin Booker is Questionable on Monday
Phoenix Suns shooting guard Devin Booker (ribs) is questionable for Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Booker played 41 minutes in Sunday's loss but did not look quite right after the contest. It would not be too surprising if Booker got the night off on Monday. Tyler Ulis could be looking at joining the starting […]
Week 16 Fantasy Basketball - Waiver Wire and Buy/Sell
Week 15 was absolutely devastating to some owners, as the biggest news this week was the season-ending injury to New Orleans Pelicans center DeMarcus Cousins (torn Achilles tendon). It's a crushing blow for owners who own Boogie, one of the most dominant players in fantasy hoops. There's just no silver living at all whatsoever, as […]

Josh Jackson Abysmal From The Field in Suns Loss
Phoenix Suns rookie small forward Josh Jackson posted a goose egg from the field on Sunday against the Rockets. Jackson could never get things going from the field, shooting an embarrassing 0-for-13, including 0-for-6 from deep. The rookie scored just two points and grabbed four rebounds in 22 minutes in what was a disappointing outing. […]
T.J. Warren Scores 24 in Suns Loss
Phoenix Suns small forward T.J. Warren had a successful night from the field despite the Suns loss to the Rockets on Sunday. Warren scored 24 points and corralled five rebounds in the loss, shooting 9-for-14 from the field, including 1-for-3 from three-point range. The 24-year-old has scored 20-plus points in four of his last five […]
Devin Booker Leads Suns in Scoring in Loss to Rockets on Sunday
Phoenix Suns shooting guard Devin Booker notched a double-double in the Suns loss to the Rockets on Sunday afternoon. The 21-year-old scored a game-high 31 points and dished out 10 assists in what was his third double-double performance of the season. Booker shot 12-for-23 from the field and buried five of nine three-point opportunities. He saw […]
Tyson Chandler Will Start Sunday
Phoenix Suns center Tyson Chandler (illness) will draw the start against the Houston Rockets on Sunday. He was questionable going into the contest but will be able to suit up. This likely means Greg Monroe heads to the bench on Sunday. Alex Len (ankle) has been ruled out, so Monroe could be looking at 20 […]
Alex Len Ruled Out Sunday
Phoenix Suns forward/center Alex Len (ankle) has been ruled out against the Houston Rockets on Sunday. He was unable to practice on Saturday, so it's not surprising to see him sitting this one out. Len should be considered questionable for Monday's game against Memphis as well. Greg Monroe should see at least 20 minutes and […]
Devin Booker Struggles in Loss to Knicks
Phoenix Suns star shooting guard Devin Booker failed to get anything going in the team's blowout loss to the Knicks on Friday. Booker scored just 12 points on 4-for-12 shooting from the field. He recorded four rebounds and three assists in the contest as well. The emerging star played just 25 minutes on Friday as […]

Marquese Chriss is Probable on Friday
Phoenix Suns forward/center Marquese Chriss (hip, eye) is probable to play in Friday's game against the New York Knicks. Chriss practiced fully on Thursday and is expected to return from his six-game absence on Friday. It's unclear how Dragan Bender's role will change with Chriss back in the mix. Head coach Jay Triano did hint […]
Alex Len is Questionable Against Knicks
Phoenix Suns forward/center Alex Len (ankle) is questionable to play against the New York Knicks on Friday. Len did not practice on Thursday and is dealing with soreness in his right ankle. Len has dealt with ankle injuries throughout his career, so it would not be surprising if the Suns are cautious with him. Greg […]

We're approaching crunch time in fantasy. And just like that, it's Week 15, as you must do anything possible to make the playoffs. Once you get there, it's an entirely different ball game.

Tyson Chandler Will Start on Wednesday
Phoenix Suns center Tyson Chandler (rest) will be back in the starting lineup against the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday. Chandler did not play on Monday versus Milwaukee, but he will resume his normal role on Wednesday. Greg Monroe will shift back to the bench and is expected to be removed out of the rotation entirely […]

NBA Heat Check: Surging Players in Week 14
Another day, another dollar. Or in this case—another week, another heat check. Statistical analysis has shown evidence that the so-called “hot-hand fallacy” isn’t a fallacy at all. But of course, we already knew that, right? On Tuesday night, Devin Booker scored the last 21 points for the Suns in the fourth quarter. And there’s also […]

He practiced on Wednesday and is on track to return after a two-game absence. Marquese Chriss will not play and has been ruled out of action for Friday. Josh Jackson will lose some minutes and […]
Marquese Chriss Ruled Out Friday
Phoenix Suns forward/center Marquese Chriss (hip) has been ruled out of Friday's contest against the Denver Nuggets. This will mark the fourth straight game without Chriss, and it's unclear when he'll be back on the court. Owners should try hanging onto him because he does have promising upside when healthy.
