Devin Booker Agrees To Massive Extension

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker has agreed to a four-year, $214 million extension with the organization. Last season, Booker averaged career-highs of 26.8 points, 5.0 boards, 4.8 dimes and 1.1 steals. He is a proven superstar and is certainly worth snagging in the first or second round of fantasy drafts. This extension will keep Booker […]

Eric Haase Blasts Go-Ahead Homer

Detroit Tigers catcher Eric Haase has been on a hot streak lately and that continued on Wednesday. The 29-year-old catcher went 1-for-4 with a go-ahead two-run home run in the sixth inning off left-hander Alex Wood. This blast proved to be the difference in the 3-2 victory for the Tigers. Haase has struggled throughout most […]

Andrew Vaughn To Sit Out On Wednesday

Chicago White Sox first baseman Andrew Vaughn (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Angels. It looks like a routine rest day for Vaughn, but he was dealing with a leg issue last week. Gavin Sheets will serve as the designated hitter and bat fifth against right-hander Shohei […]

Frank Schwindel Slowly Making Progress

Chicago Cubs first baseman Frank Schwindel (back) is slowly getting better, according to manager David Ross. The 30-year-old is expected to resume baseball activities soon, which is great news. Schwindel has been sidelined since June 18 due to back tightness. He'll likely require a minor league rehab assignment before rejoining the Cubs roster. Fantasy managers […]

David Fletcher Takes Batting Practice On Wednesday

Los Angeles Angels infielder David Fletcher (hip) was able to take live batting practice on Wednesday. Fletcher continues to recover from surgery, but it's nice to see him making progress. The Angels are hopeful that Fletcher will be able to return in mid-July. He's expected to need a rehab assignment before rejoining the Angels roster. […]

Bradley Beal Will Become A Free Agent

Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal has officially declined his $36.4 million player option for next season. That means, Beal will become one of the best free agents on the market this summer. Now, Beal can sign a five-year max deal with Washington or join another team on a four-year deal. The Wizards have failed to […]

James Harden Declines Player Option

Philadelphia 76ers guard James Harden has decided to decline his $47.4 million player option. Sixers fans don't need to worry because Harden does plan to return next season. In fact, Harden is declining the player option in order to give the team more financial flexibility. The idea behind this is the give the 76ers front […]

Luguentz Dort To Become A Restricted Free Agent

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Luguentz Dort had his team option declined by the organization on Wednesday. That means, Dort will become a restricted free agent this summer. The two sides can now discuss a new deal since the team option was only worth $1.9 million for next season. It'd be shocking to see the Thunder […]

Patty Mills Declines Player Option

Brooklyn Nets guard Patty Mills has decided to decline his player option and enter free agency. Last season, Mills averaged 2.8 three-pointers while playing nearly 29 minutes per game. He could draw plenty of interest in free agency, but is unlikely to find a starting spot anywhere. Mills is really only useful for his ability […]

P.J. Tucker Likely To Get Three-Year Deal

Miami Heat forward P.J. Tucker is expected to get a fully-guaranteed three-year deal from the organization. The Heat aren't allowed to offer more than three years, but that's likely what Tucker would get in free agency. The deal would be worth $27 million, which is probably around what he would get in free agency. The […]

Trey Lyles Expected To Remain In Sacramento

Sacramento Kings forward Trey Lyles is expected to remain with the team next season. He played well for the team after being traded from the Detroit Pistons. Lyles averaged 10.6 points and 5.6 rebounds in 24 games with Sacramento. It sounds like Lyles will remain with the team for another season, but likely as a […]

Ivica Zubac Signs Three-Year Deal

Los Angeles Clippers center Ivica Zubac has agreed to a three-year deal with the organization. The Clippers declined his $7.5 million player option in order to sign him to an extension. Now, Zubac will get a nice new shiny $33 million deal. He averaged career highs in points (10.3), rebounds (8.5), assists (1.6) last season. […]

Collin Sexton Gets Qualifying Offer From Cavaliers

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Collin Sexton is expected to be back with the organization next season. The team has extended a qualifying offer to Sexton, which makes him a restricted free agent this summer. Sexton is likely to draw interest from plenty of other organizations, but the Cavs will have the final say. It's possible that […]

Shake Milton To Stay In Philly

Philadelphia 76ers guard Shake Milton had his team option exercised by the organization on Tuesday. He'll return to the team as a key role player, but his fantasy value will be minimal. The Sixers have Joel Embiid, James Harden, Tyrese Maxey, and Tobias Harris as their main contributors. It's tough for anyone else to have […]

Hornets Not Offering Max Deal To Miles Bridges

Charlotte Hornets forward Miles Bridges has surprisingly not been offered the max contract. Possibly, the Hornets don't believe any other organization will offer Bridges the max in free agency. Both the Detroit Pistons and Indiana Pacers have been rumored to be interested in Bridges. He could be a huge lift to both of those organizations, […]

Russell Westbrook Returning To Lakers

Los Angeles Lakers guard Russell Westbrook has decided to accept his $47.1 million player option for next season. As expected, Westbrook exercised his ridiculous option since he'd never get anything close to that in free agency. His first season in Los Angeles was a disaster, so another reason for Westbrook to stay rather than test […]

Suns Officially Tender Deandre Ayton

Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton will be a restricted free agent this summer. As expected, the Suns have officially tendered a $16.4M qualifying offer to Ayton. Despite this, it seems likely that Ayton will head elsewhere this offseason. He wants a max deal and the Suns don't seem to want to offer that high of […]

Pistons Exercise Team Option On Hamidou Diallo

Detroit Pistons guard Hamidou Diallo will be back with the organization next season. As expected, the Pistons have decided to exercise their $5.2 million team option on Diallo. He has been a solid piece for Detroit, so the team wants to keep him around. It'll be interesting to see how they split up the playing […]

Pistons Have Tendered Marvin Bagley III

Detroit Pistons forward Marvin Bagley III will be a restricted free agent this summer. The organization has tendered a $7.2 million qualifying offer to Bagley. As expected, the Pistons aren't going to let Bagley walk away after acquiring him this past deadline. They've started the process or re-signing Bagley, but we'll see what happens. The […]

Josh Okogie Expected To Leave Minnesota

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Josh Okogie is not expected to return with the team next season. The Wolves are unlikely to extend a qualifying offer to Okogie. He averaged 2.7 points, 1.4 rebounds, and 0.5 assists through 49 games last season. That being said, it's not surprising that the Wolves are expected to look elsewhere for […]

Kyrie Irving Sign-And-Trade Seems Likely

Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving has received permission from the team to find a sign-and-trade partner. As of right now, the Los Angeles Lakers appear to be the only team interested in Irving via a sign-and-trade. It's unlikely that the Lakers have anything to offer the Nets to pull Irving from them. The All-Star guard […]

Frank Jackson Unlikely To Return To Detroit

Detroit Pistons guard Frank Jackson is unlikely to remain with the organization next season. The Pistons have until Tuesday to decide on the team options with Jackson and Hamidou Diallo. James Edwards of The Athletic believes that the Pistons will keep Diallo, but move on from Jackson. It wouldn't be shocking to see the Pistons […]

Pistons Expected To Keep Hamidou Diallo

Detroit Pistons guard Hamidou Diallo is likely to remain with the team for at least one more season. Diallo was traded to Detroit mid-way through the 2020 campaign. He has played fairly well and is expected to be part of the young core in Detroit. The team option is worth $5.2 million, so very affordable […]

Josh Winder To Start On Tuesday

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Josh Winder will be called up to make a start against the Cleveland Guardians on Tuesday. It's uncertain which game Winder will pitch since it is a doubleheader. The 25-year-old has made seven appearances (three starts) with the Twins this season. He has posted a 3.68 ERA, 1.23 WHIP and 23/9 […]

Aaron Judge Blasts Walk-Off Homer

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Judge put the finishing touches on what was an epic comeback victory on Sunday. The Houston Astros no-hit the Yankees on Saturday and held them without a hit through six innings on Sunday. Somehow, the Yankees came back and tied the game at 3-3. Judge crushed a walk-off three-run home […]

Brooks Raley Records Fourth Save

Tampa Bay Rays relief pitcher Brooks Raley fired a scoreless ninth inning during Sunday's victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates. He retired the first two batters before issuing a two out walk to Jack Suwinski. The 33-year-old recorded the next out and picked up his fourth save of the season. The Rays are expected to continue […]

Lou Trivino Spins Scoreless Ninth Inning

Oakland Athletics relief pitcher Lou Trivino was asked to take the ball in the ninth inning during Sunday's game against the Kansas City Royals. Trivino tossed a scoreless ninth inning to help hold a two-run lead and record his fourth save of the season. The 30-year-old gave up a pair of hits, but was able […]

Matt Duffy Removed From Sunday's Contest

Los Angeles Angels infielder Matt Duffy (back) was removed early during Sunday's game against the Seattle Mariners. The 31-year-old was pulled out of the game due to lower back tightness. It's not exactly clear what happened to Duffy, but the injury is believed to be minor. Andrew Velazquez replaced him in the lineup with Luis […]

Tanner Rainey Fires Scoreless Ninth Inning

Washington Nationals relief pitcher Tanner Rainey tossed a scoreless ninth inning during Sunday's victory over the Texas Rangers. The 29-year-old issued a walk to Josh Smith, but got Marcus Semien to ground out to end the game. This marked his 10th save of the season in 13 opportunities. Rainey has been fairly reliable this season, […]

Mookie Betts Not Cleared For Baseball Activities

Los Angeles Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts (ribs) has not been cleared for baseball activities yet, according to manager Dave Roberts. The organization was hopeful that Betts would return within two weeks. That timetable is not realistic and fantasy managers should expect Betts to be sidelined until around the All-Star break. This is certainly frustrating for […]
