Mike Conley Won't Play Monday

Utah Jazz guard Mike Conley (hamstring) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. This marks the fourth game in a row that Conley has been sidelined. The fact he is being ruled out a full day in advance is not good news for fantasy managers. The Jazz are likely being […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (5/1/21): NBA DFS Lineups

Royce O'Neale Could Sit Out Versus Suns

Utah Jazz forward Royce O'Neale (wrist) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Phoenix Suns.

Heading into Friday, there's no shortage of exciting matchups. Only two games are posted on MonkeyKnifeFight.com thus far, […]

Royce O’Neale Questionable Against Phoenix

Utah Jazz forward Royce O'Neale (wrist) may not play on Friday against the Suns. The 27-year-old is currently dealing with soreness in his right wrist, an unfortunate development considering the team will be down both Mike Conley (hamstring) and Donovan Mitchell (ankle) against Phoenix. If O'Neale doesn't suit up, look for Georges Niang to be […]

Mike Conley Still Dealing With Bum Hamstring

Utah Jazz guard Mike Conley (hamstring) is listed as out for Friday's matchup against the Phoenix Suns. The veteran is dealing with right hamstring tightness once again, an injury that has plagued him for quite some time.
