Nolan Gorman Promotion Seems Unlikely

St. Louis Cardinals infielder Nolan Gorman is unlikely to be called up to the big league roster anytime soon. The young slugger already has 10 home runs in Triple-A this season. He is clearly ready for the MLB, but the Cardinals don't have an everyday spot for him yet. Paul DeJong is struggling with the […]

Aaron Hicks Activated On Friday

New York Yankees outfielder Aaron Hicks was activated off the paternity list on Friday. He missed the previous series against the Baltimore Orioles, but is returning for the road trip.

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (knee) is expected to miss the entire second round of the postseason against the Boston Celtics.

He wanted to tough it out […]

Fred Vanvleet Tagged As Doubtful For Game 6

Toronto Raptors guard Fred VanVleet (hip) is listed as doubtful for Thursday's Game 6 against the Philadelphia 76ers. He missed their last contest as well, but the Raptors were able to pull off the victory. Scottie Barnes moved into the starting lineup, so fantasy managers should expect that to happen again. Both Barnes and Gary […]

Stephen Curry Could Start In Game 5

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry has a chance of joining the starting unit for Wednesday's Game 5 against the Denver Nuggets. The All-Star guard has been coming off the bench during the postseason, but those days could be coming to an end.

Donovan Mitchell Expects To Play In Game 6

Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell (quad) believes that he will be ready to play in Thursday's Game 6 matchup against the Dallas Mavericks. He exited early during their last contest, but this injury doesn't sound too serious. It's a must-win game for Utah, so it's highly unlikely that Mitchell is going to miss this game. […]

Andre Iguodala Won't Play On Wednesday

Golden State Warriors forward Andre Iguodala (back) won't be available for Wednesday's Game 5 against the Denver Nuggets. The veteran forward played 13 minutes in Game 4, but failed to bring much to the table. In fact, Iguodala finished with one rebound, two turnovers, and five fouls. Otto Porter Jr. and Jonathan Kuminga should gain […]

Adalberto Mondesi Not Playing Versus White Sox

Kansas City Royals shortstop Adalberto Mondesi (knee) is not in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Chicago White Sox. This is not shocking considering Mondesi was forced to exit early on Tuesday. The Royals don't expect Mondesi to miss significant time, but will have him undergo more testing. Nicky Lopez will bat leadoff […]

Dillon Peters To Start On Wednesday

Pittsburgh Pirates pitcher Dillon Peters will make the start against the Milwaukee Brewers on Wednesday. Bryse Wilson was expected to make the start, but has been scratched for an unknown reason. That being said, Peters will start, but his max pitch count this season is 43 pitches. He likely won't go deep into this game, […]

Luis Robert Remains Out Of The Lineup

Chicago White Sox outfielder Luis Robert (groin) remains out of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Kansas City Royals. Robert hasn't played since last Thursday and he'll miss at least one more game. Adam Engel will cover center field and bat eighth versus righty Zack Greinke on Wednesday. Luckily, Robert said he is […]

Brandin Cooks Not Attending Workouts

Houston Texans wide receiver Brandin Cooks has decided to not attend voluntary workouts. The 28-year-old recently signed an extension with Houston, so fantasy managers shouldn't be too concerned. This doesn't appear to be a holdout or anything like that. Over the last two seasons, Cooks has been a significant part of the Texans offense. He […]

Lions Exercise Fifth-Year Option On T.J. Hockenson

Detroit Lions tight end T.J. Hockenson is expected to stick with the organization for at least two more seasons. On Tuesday, the Lions exercised Hockenson's fifth-year option that is worth $9.3 million in 2023. This is an unsurprising move as Hockenson has been a solid option for Detroit since being drafted in 2019. He is […]

Robert Quinn Could Be On The Move

Chicago Bears defensive end Robert Quinn could possibly be traded before the beginning of training camp. Ian Rapoport reports that teams are checking in and kicking the tires on Quinn. The 31-year-old recorded 18.5 sacks and 49 tackles through 17 games with the Bears last season. The Bears traded Khalil Mack earlier in the offseason, […]

Jimmy Garoppolo To Panthers Is Unlikely

San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo has been on the trade block all offseason long. However, there hasn't been much movement on the trade front, which could be a problem soon. One team that would make sense on paper is the Carolina Panthers. Although, David Newton of ESPN mentioned that Garoppolo has never been on […]

Donovan Mitchell Hopeful To Play In Game 6

Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell (hamstring) was forced to exit early during Monday's Game 5 against the Dallas Mavericks. He left in the fourth quarter due to a left hamstring issue, but the Jazz were getting destroyed anyway. The MRI came back clean, so the Jazz are hopeful that Mitchell can play on Thursday. Otherwise, […]

Zach LaVine Placed In COVID-19 Safety Protocols

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine has been placed in the league's health and safety protocols on Tuesday. That being said, LaVine is considered questionable for Wednesday's Game 5 versus the Milwaukee Bucks. Also, Alex Caruso (concussion) is uncertain for Wednesday's game, so the Bulls could be shorthanded. Ayo Dosunmu and Coby White could be asked […]

Clint Capela To Suit Up For Game 5

Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (knee) will play during Tuesday's Game 5 against the Miami Heat. He was listed as questionable coming into this game, but feels well enough to get on the court. Capela made his series debut during Game 4, but only scored two points in 21 minutes. The Hawks are hopeful to […]

Gabe Vincent Is Available On Tuesday

Miami Heat guard Gabe Vincent (toe) will be available for Tuesday's Game 5 against the Atlanta Hawks. The Heat are going to need Vincent with Kyle Lowry (hamstring) and Jimmy Butler (knee) both sidelined for this contest. Vincent is averaging 8.9 points, 3.2 assists, and 1.8 rebounds whenever Butler isn't playing. He could be someone […]

Jimmy Butler To Sit Out Game 5

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (knee) has been officially ruled out for Tuesday's Game 5 against the Atlanta Hawks. He wasn't on the injury report heading into this game, so this decision is a bit surprising. He'll be joined by Kyle Lowry (hamstring) on the sideline for Tuesday's contest. Gabe Vincent, Tyler Herro, Max Strus, […]

Bogdan Bogdanovic Won't Play In Game 5

Atlanta Hawks guard Bogdan Bogdanovic (knee) has been ruled out for Tuesday's Game 5 matchup against the Miami Heat. He has been battling and playing through both knee and ankle injuries during this series. It has certainly impacted his performance as well. The Hawks will take the cautious approach here and let Bogdanovic rest. Danilo […]

Kevin Durant Goes Down With A Fight

Brooklyn Nets forward Kevin Durant did everything he could during Monday's Game 4 loss to the Boston Celtics. He struggled coming into Monday's win-or-go-home contest, but finally figured it out. He finished with 39 points, nine assists, seven rebounds in the four-point loss to Boston. The Nets have been swept, but at least Durant went […]

James Harden Struggles In Game 5

Philadelphia 76ers guard James Harden had a difficult time making shots during Monday's Game 5 against the Toronto Raptors.

Pascal Siakam Posts Double-Double In Game 5

Toronto Raptors forward Pascal Siakam was a significant contributor during Monday's Game 5 victory over the Philadelphia 76ers.

He finished with 23 points, 10 rebounds, and seven assists […]

Luka Doncic Finishes With 33 Points

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic had seemingly no issues against the Utah Jazz during Monday's Game 5 matchup. The All-Star guard hit 11-of-22 shots for 33 points, 13 rebounds, and five assists in the blowout victory. That being said, Doncic was able to get some rest in the fourth quarter due to the fact the […]

Donovan Mitchell Exits Late In Fourth Quarter

Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell (hamstring) was unable to finish out Monday's Game 5 against the Dallas Mavericks. The star guard suffered an apparent hamstring injury in the fourth quarter of Monday's loss. He exited the game and didn't return, but that might've been out of precaution. Mitchell finished with nine points on 4-of-15 shooting […]
