Deandre Ayton Unlikely To Play Wednesday

Portland Trail Blazers center Deandre Ayton (knee) is considered as doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Golden State Warriors. The big man continues to deal with right knee soreness, so the Blazers will likely take the cautious approach and hold him out of this game. His absence would result in Duop Reath and Moses Brown […]

Portland Trail Blazers center Deandre Ayton (back) is expected to play on Sunday in Milwaukee.

Malcolm Brogdon Uncertain For Tuesday

Portland Trail Blazers guard Malcolm Brogdon (hamstring) is considered questionable for Tuesday's game against the Phoenix Suns. Brogdon has been sidelined for nearly two weeks while he deals with a lingering hamstring issue. The Blazers are already shorthanded, so getting Brogdon back in the rotation would be huge for them. Otherwise, Skylar Mays and Shaedon […]

Malcolm Brogdon Ruled Out Again On Friday

Portland Trail Blazers guard Malcolm Brogdon (hamstring) is set to miss his fourth consecutive game after straining his left hamstring against the Sacramento Kings a week ago.

Shaedon Sharpe Will Play Wednesday

Portland Trail Blazers guard Shaedon Sharpe (knee) will suit up for Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (11/15/23): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups

We're set for an eight-game slate Wednesday, one that's actually smaller by two games than the unusually robust 10-game ledger we had Tuesday night that consisted of In-Season Tournament Group Play games. We have some big names carrying injury designations as usual on Wednesday, but with 16 teams in action, we shouldn't have much trouble […]

Matisse Thybulle Heads To The Bench

Portland Trail Blazers guard Matisse Thybulle will head to the bench for Tuesday's game against the Utah Jazz. This is weird timing with Thybulle coming off his best game of the season on Sunday.

Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Adds and Weekly Planner: Week 4 (11/13-11/19)

One of my favorite things about following the NBA and covering it for fantasy/betting content is that the players who matter on a nightly basis are constantly changing and those who stay dialed into these ebbs and flows are rewarded by winning their leagues (or bets) or whatever. We are only three weeks into the […]
