  • Onuralp Bitim (illness) out Saturday vs. Pelicans
    Onuralp Bitim (illness) has been ruled out for Saturday’s game against the Pelicans.

    Advice: Bitim, who’s on a two-way contract, isn’t in the rotation when healthy. His absence will have no impact on fantasy basketball leagues. Rotoworld 4 minutes ago
  • Joe Harris (shoulder) out Saturday vs. Cleveland
    Joe Harris (right shoulder sprain) has been ruled out for Saturday’s game against the Cavaliers.

    Advice: Harris’ continued absence won’t impact fantasy basketball, especially with Bojan Bogdanovic closing in on a return to game action. Harris should already be on the waiver wire in most, if not all, fantasy leagues. Rotoworld 7 minutes ago

  • Noah Clowney, Dariq Whitehead out for Saturday
    Noah Clowney (right shoulder impingement) and Dariq Whitehead (right foot injury management) have been ruled out for Saturday’s game against the Magic.

    Advice: Clowney and Whitehead not being available won’t impact fantasy basketball. Clowney hasn’t been in the rotation when healthy, while Whitehead has yet to make his NBA debut. Leave them on the waiver wire. Rotoworld 10 minutes ago
  • Anthony Edwards (hip) doubtful Saturday vs. CHA
    Anthony Edwards (right hip pointer) is doubtful for Saturday’s game against the Hornets.

    Advice: Edwards is on track to miss a second consecutive game, meaning Nickeil Alexander-Walker would get another start. NAW was outstanding on Thursday, and Saturday’s matchup is a good one to stream him in. Rotoworld 16 minutes ago
  • Brandon Miller, Nick Richards questionable Sat.
    Brandon Miller (left ankle sprain) and Nick Richards (concussion protocol) are questionable for Saturday’s game against the Timberwolves.

    Advice: Miller being questionable is the bigger news, as he’s been a starter for most of the season. His return would drop Bryce McGowens to the bench, robbing him of all his streaming value. As for Richards, his presence would give Charlotte a true big man behind starting center Mark Williams. PJ Washington would get fewer minutes at the center position, but his fantasy value should hold steady. Rotoworld 19 minutes ago
  • Remains out
    Ntilikina (lower leg) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against Minnesota.

    Advice: Ntilikina continues to recover from a left tibia fracture. He's recently begun individual workouts again, but it's unclear when he'll be cleared to make his season debut. Rotowire.com 24 minutes ago
  • Bam Adebayo (left hip) out Saturday vs. Indiana
    Bam Adebayo (left hip contusion) has been ruled out for Saturday’s game against the Pacers.

    Advice: Adebayo had to exit Thursday’s game against the Pacers with a hip injury, which has been a nuisance through the season’s first month. Thomas Bryant, who didn’t play in the first half of Thursday’s game, should slide into the starting lineup. While Bryant could receive the starting nod, Jaime Jaquez Jr. would be a better fantasy play if available. Rotoworld 25 minutes ago
  • Questionable for Saturday
    Richards (concussion) is questionable for Saturday's game against Minnesota.

    Advice: Richards has missed the last six matchups due to a concussion, but it's encouraging that he's labeled as questionable for Saturday's game rather than being immediately ruled out. If he's cleared to suit up against the Timberwolves, Richards could face a minutes restriction. Rotowire.com 26 minutes ago
  • Gradey Dick (illness) out Friday vs. New York
    Gradey Dick (illness) has been ruled out for Friday’s game against the Knicks.

    Advice: Dick is a late addition to the injury report, having fallen victim to a bug that has reportedly impacted multiple members of Raptors 905. The rookie hasn’t been a factor in fantasy basketball this season, so his absence won’t impact most managers. Rotoworld 29 minutes ago
