Brooklyn Nets shooting guard/small forward Seth Curry (trade) and center Andre Drummond (trade) have been ruled out for Saturday's game vs. Miami due to the blockbuster deal that sent them to the Nets not yet having been officially ratified. Curry, who has averaged a career-high 15 PPG this season, is likely to hold a similarly relevant offensive role with his new club once he is cleared for action. Drummond figures to battle it out alongside Nicolas Claxton (hamstring) and LaMarcus Aldridge (ankle) for minutes, but with the trio all ruled out Saturday, Blake Griffin and Day'Ron Sharpe should see ample run, thereby drawing significant DFS interest. The next chance for Curry and Drummond to take the floor comes Monday against the Kings.

Brooklyn Nets center Andre Drummond and guard Seth Curry are uncertain to play in Saturday's game against the Miami Heat. Both players must pass their physicals before being allowed to play with their new organizations. Once cleared to play, both players should immediately slide into the starting five. The Nets are in desperate need of a reliable big man. Drummond should see a boost in fantasy value while in Brooklyn. However, Curry could see a dip in usage because the Nets do have more shooting options than his previous organization. Fantasy managers should continue to hold Curry, but expect his value to somewhat decrease.

Philadelphia 76ers shooting guard Seth Curry (back) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Wizards due to back spasms. Curry recently missed four outings due to an ankle ailment and has since struggled from long range (3-for-15) since returning. His absence will pave the way for Isaiah Joe to see an elevated role, making him a sought after last-minute DFS option due to his low price tag. Curry, who scored in single digits just four times over his first 42 games, has been held to single digits in each of his last four times out, muddling his season-long viability for the time being. His next chance to suit up comes Friday vs. Dallas.

Philadelphia 76ers guard Seth Curry (ankle) is available for Saturday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He had missed each of the last four games while dealing with a left ankle injury. There's a chance he's somewhat limited during his first game back on the court. Curry has some streaming appeal and he could be a low-end DFS option, but is somewhat risky. It's uncertain how significant of a role Curry will have in the rotation on Saturday.

Philadelphia 76ers shooting guard Seth Curry (ankle) has been deemed unavailable for Thursday's contest against the Lakers due to a sore left ankle. Curry will miss his fourth consecutive game, paving the way for Furkan Korkmaz and Matisse Thybulle to continue seeing sizable workloads out of the backcourt. Isaiah Joe has also been bumped into the rotation in Curry's absence, but his contributions have landed just outside DFS relevance on most nights. Shooting a career-best 50.9 percent from the field this season, Curry has emerged as a viable season-long asset in all formats. His next chance to take the floor comes Saturday vs. Sacramento.

Philadelphia 76ers shooting guard Seth Curry (ankle) and small forward Danny Green (hip) have been ruled out for Sunday's game vs. the Spurs. Curry's absence due to a sore left ankle has now extended to two contests, with Isaiah Joe having stepped into his starting spot Friday. Green will have missed each of Philly's last six outings, which has largely allowed Furkan Korkmaz to see both elevated minutes and offensive usage. The absence of both Curry and Green likely funnels offensive duties in the direction of Joel Embiid and Tyrese Maxey, while putting added attention on Korkmaz's long-range abilities. The next chance for either sharpshooter to return comes Tuesday against New Orleans.

Philadelphia 76ers shooting guard Seth Curry (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's contest vs. the Clippers, paving the way for Isaiah Joe to slide into the starting five for the first time this season. Curry has battled ankle soreness as of late, which may have contributed to back-to-back single-digit scoring efforts on the heels of a 12-game stretch where he averaged 17.8 PPG and scored in double figures on every occasion. His absence should funnel higher usage toward Furkan Korkmaz, but Joe will have an intriguing DFS case in his own right; in his lone prior career start, he collected 13 points and four rebounds across a 45-minute showing. Curry's next chance to return comes Sunday against San Antonio.

Philadelphia 76ers shooting guard Seth Curry (ankle) has been deemed questionable to suit up for Friday's contest vs. the Clippers due to left ankle soreness. Curry has enjoyed a career year, but he has shot just 1-for-6 from beyond the arc over his past two outings. On pace to set new career highs in points (15.8), assists (4.0), and rebounds (3.4) per game, along with shooting percentage (50.9%), Curry has played his way into season-long viability in all season-long formats. An absence would funnel more minutes and offensive duties to Furkan Korkmaz, while Isaiah Joe would also likely garner added run. Fantasy managers will want to check back prior to tip-off for the final word on Curry's status against a stout Clippers three-point defense (32.7% opponents' three-point percentage, second best in the league).

Philadelphia 76ers guard Seth Curry, who produced a season-high 29 points in last Thursday's loss to Brooklyn, found scoring to be easy against Boston as well in Monday's matchup, shooting 10-for-14 from the field and 3-for-3 from outside en route to 26 points in a 108-103 win. He also tallied seven assists with four turnovers and had four rebounds and one steal in 40 minutes. Curry is having a fantastic month and is shooting nearly 55 percent from the field for December. He'll aim to get buckets next against Atlanta in a matchup that has suited him well. Curry has averaged 16.5 points per game on 52.2 percent shooting against the Hawks this season.

Philadelphia 76ers guard Seth Curry will move into the starting five for Monday's game against the Boston Celtics. Tyrese Maxey (quad) and Shake Milton (protocols) are unavailable for this contest. That means, Curry will take over point guard duties and see plenty of ball handling responsibilities. It's also worth noting that Joel Embiid (ankle) and Danny Green (hip) are uncertain for this contest. Curry is quickly looking like a must-have DFS option for Monday's slate.

Philadelphia 76ers guard Seth Curry (shoulder) will not play Monday against the Memphis Grizzlies. Curry was ruled out minutes before tip-off with what has been ruled as shoulder soreness. Curry was not listed on the injury report all day, but his shoulder likely flared up during warm-ups. Furkan Korkmaz will get the spot start and is worth a look for three-pointers.

Philadelphia 76ers forward Tobias Harris and guard Seth Curry (ankle), listed as questionable, are available and in the starting lineup for Thursday's game against the Raptors. Harris cleared the health and safety protocols but needed to prove his readiness in a pre-game shootaround, which he was able to do. Meanwhile, Curry will make his return to the court after missing the last game due to a bruised foot. Rust could be a factor for Harris, but he and Curry should see expanded roles on offense with Joel Embiid in the health and safety protocols.

The Philadelphia 76ers could get two valuable pieces to their rotation, Tobias Harris and Seth Curry (foot), back in the lineup Thursday against the Raptors. Harris has missed the past six games while in quarantine after a positive COVID test, though head coach Doc Rivers had said that he would be returning soon- and his questionable designation supports that notion. Meanwhile, Curry missed the team's last game while dealing with a bruised foot- but also has a chance to return to the action. Both Harris and Curry could inherit large offensive roles with Joel Embiid sidelined.

Philadelphia 76ers guard Seth Curry (foot) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. The Sixers are going to be extremely shorthanded for this game. That means, Danny Green and Shake Milton will have tremendous upside. Also, Andre Drummond is in line for a huge game. The hope is that this is only going to be a one game absence for Curry. In the meantime, Milton and Drummond are looking like fantastic fantasy options for Tuesday's slate.

Philadelphia 76ers guard Seth Curry (foot) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. This is not good news with the Sixers already missing a handful of players due to health and safety guidelines. Curry would be asked to carry a heavier load on offense, assuming he plays. Otherwise, Danny Green, Shake Milton, and Furkan Korkmaz could be asked to do more. Milton has the most fantasy upside out of those three, assuming Curry is out.

Philadelphia 76ers guard Seth Curry took on a bigger role in Monday's matchup versus Portland with Joel Embiid (rest) and Tobias Harris unavailable, shooting 10-for-17 from the field en route to a game-high 23 points in a 113-103 win. He was 3-for-10 with the three-ball and collected six rebounds with five assists and one turnover in 34 minutes. Curry is shooting 54 percent from deep for the season, so his effort from behind the arc was disappointing, but fantasy managers won't be complaining following his 23-6-5 line. Danny Green also had a great game with Philly's stars missing but was forced to exit with hamstring tightness in the third quarter. He posted 11 points on 4-for-5 shooting.

Philadelphia 76ers shooting guard Seth Curry recorded 23 first-quarter points and ended up registering a team-high 28 points in Sunday's 115-103 win over OKC. There seemed to have been another Curry on the court during the opening 12 minutes, as the veteran sniper made six of his seven attempts from downtown. He finished with a 7-for-10 record from deep and shot 9-for-15 overall from the field with a 3-for-4 effort at the line. Curry also managed to pick up three rebounds with three assists and one steal in 34 minutes. The 31-year-old has now notched 20 points and back-to-back games, and he's shooting a mind-boggling 76.5 percent from deep for the year. Could Curry maybe produce a big night at Madison Square Garden? He faces the Knicks on Tuesday and it's a matchup against a team that is allowing a league-high 47.7 three-point attempts per game.

PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Doc Rivers met Joel Embiid on the court, slapped the big man’s hand and gave him a big I-told-you-so in the waning moments of a Game 6 victory. Rivers believed in his 76ers. Embiid, Seth Curry and even Tobias Harris came through down the stretch to reward Rivers’ faith in them and win in Atlanta. “These guys are young, man,” Rivers said. “They need to believe that. I didn’t know if they did or didn’t. I thought they did. You can tell in the way we played. But he have another game.” This Eastern Conference semifinal comes down to Game 7 Sunday in Philadelphia and there’s scant proof the home-court edge will matter much for the top-seeded Sixers. Game 1, Atlanta leads by 26 points, wins. Game 5, Hawks trail by 26, win. Both games in Philly. Here comes Trae Young and the Hawks back to Philadelphia, with recent road success on their side -- but the weight of Atlanta’s career 0-9 mark in Game 7s on the road against them. “You have to look at that, the fact we have won there...

ATLANTA (AP) — The NBA's top playoff seeds, Philadelphia and Utah, are on the brink of being eliminated. The 76ers have blown leads of 18 and 26 points in back-to-back losses to the Atlanta Hawks, who now lead the Eastern Conference semifinal series 3-2. Atlanta, the No. 5 seed, can clinch the series at home on Friday night after storming back for an improbable 109-106 win on Wednesday night in Philadelphia. “Our backs are against the wall right now and we have to play like it,” said Philadelphia's Tobias Harris. Seth Curry said the 76ers should not have psychological scars from losing big leads in back-to-back losses. “It shouldn’t,” Curry said. “We’re grown men over here. Watch the film and learn from it and bounce back.” Led by Trae Young, the Hawks are attempting to advance to a conference final for only the second time since moving to Atlanta in 1968. The Hawks were swept by Cleveland in the 2015 conference final. The Hawks won their only NBA championship in 1958, when the team was... [More]

ATLANTA (AP) — The Hawks return to Atlanta beaming with confidence in their Eastern Conference semifinal series against the Philadelphia 76ers despite their inability to slow down, much less stop, Joel Embiid. The 76ers big man has scored 79 points in the first two games at Philadelphia to open the series, which is tied 1-1 heading into Friday's Game 3 in Atlanta — where the Hawks have won 13 consecutive games. It's the longest active home winning streak in the NBA. “I hope fans are ready to rock the house on Friday,” Trae Young said after Philadelphia's 118-102 win in Game 2 on Tuesday night. The Hawks will need their fans — but they also know they have to correct some issues on the court. They expect better outside shooting from Young and his backcourt partner Bogdan Bogdanovic. And until they find a defensive combination to slow Embiid, Atlanta will have to do a better job of containing his teammates. The challenge of containing the 76ers' outside shooting grew Wednesday when the Hawks... [More]
