James Harden - SG - OKC:
Harden dealing with...
Mar 11, 2:01PM
James Harden missed Thursday's practice with a right hamstring injury and his status for Friday's game is unclear. Harden played just 13 minutes on Wednesday night, and now we know why. The rookie is averaging just 9.9 points in 23 minutes a game on the season and belongs on waivers in most formats. Thabo Sefolosha stands to benefit if Harden misses any games, but Sefolosha is mainly a defensive player for the Thunder.

Dorell Wright - SF,SG - MIA:

Mar 11, 1:49PM
Heat F Dorell Wright was arrested early Thursday morning and charged with driving under the influence, according to the Miami Herald. Wright was stopped around 3:37 a.m. in Miami Beach and the officer wrote that Wright had red eyes, slurred speech and smelled of alcohol. He refused a sobriety test and was released on $2,000 bond, according to the affidavit. Wright came straight out of high school in 2004 when the Heat took him with the 19th overall pick. He's averaging 6.3 points in 19 minutes on the season.

Mar 11, 1:31PM
Brad Miller is dealing with an injured left thumb. Considering all of the Bulls' injuries, we're fully expecting Miller to go on Thursday night. He's taken advantage of extra minutes, averaging 16.5 points, 6.3 rebounds and 1.2 treys in his last four games. We'd use him as a low-end play until Joakim Noah returns.

Brandon Rush - SF,SG - IND:
O'Brien raving about...
Mar 11, 1:16PM
Pacers coach Jim O'Brien raved about Brandon Rush's consistency on Wednesday. Consistency has been an issue for Rush, who was benched for a period in the middle of the season but is now locked back into the starting five. Over his last five games, he's averaging 13.2 points, 6.2 rebounds and 2.6 treys a game. He's worth a look in most formats, but will only be a true asset if Danny Granger shuts it down.
-
Luol Deng - SF,SG - CHI:
Deng not officially...
Mar 11, 1:12PM
Luol Deng (calf) will not play on Thursday, but he has not yet been ruled out for Friday's game against the Heat. We're considering Deng a long shot for Friday as well. After the Miami game, the Bulls are off until Tuesday so Deng will get an extended rest. Rookie James Johnson will start in Deng's place, but Flip Murray is a better fantasy play for desperate owners.
-
Taj Gibson - PF - CHI:
Gibson will play on...
Mar 11, 1:08PM
Taj Gibson (plantar fasciitis) will play on Thursday night. Gibson fouled out in just 12 minutes on Tuesday and then sat out Wednesday's practice. We suspect his minutes/effectiveness will be limited and you should leave Gibson on your bench.
-
Ime Udoka - SF,SG - SAC:
Udoka a healthy...
Mar 11, 11:26AM
Ime Udoka was active for Wednesday night's game against the Raptors but was a healthy scratch from the lineup. Udoka missed Tuesday's game due to a sprained knee and ankle. Udoka is an occasional role player for the Kings and that's about all fantasy owners need to know.
