Blake Griffin Moves Into Starting Five

Boston Celtics forward Blake Griffin will move into the starting five for Saturday's game against the New York Knicks. The Celtics have decided to rest Al Horford (back) after he played 33 minutes during Friday's game. Griffin will take over his spot in the starting five for this contest. The 33-year-old hasn't been very productive […]

Isaiah Hartenstein Slides Into Starting Five

New York Knicks center Isaiah Hartenstein will move into the starting five for Saturday's game against the Boston Celtics. The Knicks are going to be without Mitchell Robinson (knee) for at least the next week. Hartenstein is expected to take over as the starter until Robinson is ready to return. Fantasy managers should double check […]

Quentin Grimes To Rest On Saturday

New York Knicks guard Quentin Grimes (knee) will sit out Saturday's game against the Boston Celtics. It's the second game of a back-to-back set, so the Knicks will take the cautious approach here. Grimes finished with two points, one rebound, and one assist during Friday's win over the Philadelphia 76ers. Immanuel Quickley should soak up […]

Mitchell Robinson To Miss Saturday's Game

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Boston Celtics. The big man suffered a knee injury during Friday's win over the Philadelphia 76ers. Now, the Knicks are going to shut down Robinson for at least one week. The organization plans to re-evaluate Robinson in 7-10 days, […]

Trae Young Will Play On Saturday

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (eye) will suit up for Saturday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. This is good news after Young was listed as questionable earlier in the day due to a bruised left eye. It sounds like Young is good to go and should have his full workload on Saturday. He'll look […]

Terry Rozier Available On Saturday

Charlotte Hornets guard Terry Rozier (ankle) will be available for Saturday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. This is good news after Rozier sat out the last seven games due to a right ankle sprain. His return to the starting five will hurt the fantasy value of Jalen McDaniels. However, the Hornets are still shorthanded, so […]

Edmond Sumner To Start Against Hornets

Brooklyn Nets guard Edmond Sumner will remain in the starting five for Saturday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. The 26-year-old finished with 11 points, four boards and two steals through 25 minutes during Friday's game. He'll look to build on that performance during this game. The expectation is that he'll continue to see around 25 […]

David Montgomery Falls Into Low-End RB2 Territory

Chicago Bears running back David Montgomery has seen double digit carries in four straight games. However, his production hasn't quite been there as he continues to struggle to find room to run. Last week, Montgomery rushed 15 times for 53 yards in the loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Khalil Herbert continues to work his way […]

Justin Fields Has High-End QB2 Value For Week 9

Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields continues to show improvement despite the team getting blown out last week. Fields completed 17-of-23 passing attempts for 151 yards with two touchdowns in the loss. He also added 60 additional yards on the ground with another score. The Bears have given Fields limited weapons on offense, but he appears […]

Marshon Lattimore Out Against Ravens

New Orleans Saints defensive back Marshon Lattimore (abdomen) has been ruled out for the Week 9 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens. This marks the fourth game in a row that Lattimore has been forced to sit out. His absence should open up more playing time for Paulson Adebo and Alontae Taylor. The Saints secondary gave […]

Adam Trautman Removed From Injury Report

New Orleans Saints tight end Adam Trautman (ankle) was removed from the injury report on Saturday. It sounds like Trautman will suit up for Week 9, which will be his first game action since Week 6. The expectation is that he'll continue his timeshare with Juwan Johnson at the tight end spot. Trautman has seven […]

Dawson Knox Could Bounce Back In Week 9

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox has yet to reach 45 receiving yards in a single game this season. The 25-year-old has scored in back-to-back games, but his fantasy value is looking touchdown-dependent right now. Luckily for him, the New York Jets have struggled against tight ends this season. A defensive unit that is allowing […]

Isaiah McKenzie Is A Risky Start Against Jets

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Isaiah McKenzie has struggled to make an impact lately. In fact, McKenzie has three receptions for 17 yards over his last two games. Before that, McKenzie was playing better with three touchdowns over the first four games. The 27-year-old did score a rushing touchdown last week, but saw one target outside […]

Gabe Davis Has Low-End WR2 Value For Week 9

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Gabe Davis hasn't exactly lived up to expectations this season. Despite that, he has totaled 280 receiving yards and three touchdowns over the last three games. It does seem like he is finally getting into a groove, but he often times leaves fantasy managers wanting more from him. In Week 9, […]

Stefon Diggs A Quality WR1 For Week 9

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs has at least 100 yards and a touchdown in five of his seven games this season. The 28-year-old is putting on a show and fantasy managers are getting rewarded for it. Coming into Week 9, Diggs has posted three straight 100-yard games. He'll look to keep that streak alive […]

James Cook Not Worth The Gamble

Buffalo Bills running back James Cook has quickly become the No. 2 option in this backfield. However, that title doesn't mean too much in this pass-heavy offense. Lead back Devin Singletary gets a majority of the carries, which leaves Cook with the scraps. Cook usually gets a handful of carries, but sometimes not even that. […]

Devin Singletary Has High-End RB2 Value

Buffalo Bills running back Devin Singletary has totaled at least 83 yards in four of his last five games. It appears the fourth-year back is finally becoming a consistent piece to this backfield. He has seen 14 carries or more over the last two games. That trend should continue against a New York Jets defense […]

Josh Allen Remains A Top-Tier Option For Week 9

Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen has once again been one of the best QBs this season. Fantasy managers who took a risk taking Allen early on draft day are certainly getting rewarded. He has thrown for at least 297 yards with two touchdowns in every game, but two this season. However, he does get a […]

Anthony Davis Still Dealing With Back Injury

Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (back) was able to play through his issue during Wednesday's game. The big man scored 20 points and pulled down 16 rebounds in the overtime victory. Now, Davis is being listed as questionable for Friday's game due to back tightness. Fantasy managers shouldn't be surprised that Davis is tagged […]

Deandre Ayton Probable To Play Friday

Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton (ankle) is officially listed as probable for Friday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. The big man was a full participant during Thursday's practice. This is great news after seeing Ayton sidelined due to a foot issue. The expectation is that he'll have a full workload for Friday's game, assuming […]

Fred Vanvleet Uncertain For Friday's Contest

Toronto Raptors guard Fred VanVleet (back) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. He missed their last game on Wednesday due to back stiffness. His absence resulted in Scottie Barnes shifting over to the point guard spot. That is likely to happen again, assuming Vanvleet is unable to play. Chris Boucher […]

Kyrie Irving Suspended Five Games

Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving has been suspended five games by the organization. The team announced on Thursday that Irving won't receive pay for the next five contests. This comes in the aftermath of Irving not apologizing for the sharing of a movie that has anti-Semitic message on his social media account. This certainly hurts […]

Zeke Nnaji Questionable To Return

Denver Nuggets center Zeke Nnaji (ankle) is considered questionable to return for Thursday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. It's a shame because Nnaji was playing well before suffering an ankle sprain. The 21-year-old snagged five rebounds in only five minutes of action. Jeff Green and DeAndre Jordan will see increased playing time off the […]

Anfernee Simons Questionable For Friday

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (foot) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Phoenix Suns. The Blazers will already be shorthanded with Damian Lillard (calf) ruled out for this game. This team will be extremely thin at guard if Simons is unable to play. Keon Johnson and Justice Winslow would be asked […]

Keenan Allen Remains Sidelined During Thursday's Practice

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen (hamstring) remained on the sideline for Thursday's practice. At this point, it's anyone's guess when Allen is going to play. He somehow re-aggravated his hamstring injury on a bye week. The 30-year-old has played in two games this season. The fact he missed Thursday's practice likely points to […]

Austin Ekeler Limited On Thursday

Los Angeles Chargers running back Austin Ekeler (abdominal) was a limited participant during Thursday's practice. It didn't seem like Ekeler was dealing with anything heading into practice. Possibly, it's a minor issue or Ekeler suffered the injury during practice. Regardless, fantasy managers will have to keep an eye on Ekeler heading into Friday's practice. His […]

DeSean Jackson Likely To Be Active On Monday

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver DeSean Jackson is expected to be active for the Monday Night matchup against the New Orleans Saints. Head coach John Harbaugh believes the 35-year-old wideout should make his team debut here. He'll be a boom-or-bust deep threat, assuming he is active on Monday. The Ravens don't have many options on offense, […]

Tony Pollard Restricted To 30 Plays?

Dallas Cowboys running back Tony Pollard is believed to be maxed out at 30 plays, according to the team's running back coach Skip Peete. Last week, Pollard played a total of 30 plays in the absence of Ezekiel Elliott (knee) during their Week 8 contest. It's worth noting that Pollard has never reached 20 touches […]

Julio Jones Practices On Thursday

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Julio Jones (knee) was a full participant during Thursday's practice. This is great news after Jones sat out on Wednesday, but it seems like that was likely just a rest day. It sounds like the 33-year-old is going to be out there for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Rams. […]

Corey Davis Unlikely To Play In Week 9

New York Jets wide receiver Corey Davis (knee) missed another practice session on Thursday. The 27-year-old hasn't practiced since reportedly suffering an MCL injury in Week 7. The fact Davis still isn't practicing means he'll likely miss the upcoming Week 9 matchup against the Buffalo Bills. Garrett Wilson is coming off a six-catch game and […]
