Ty Johnson - Week 8 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New York Jets running back Ty Johnson has not been a trustworthy fantasy option this season. However, he has put together some PPR value over the last two games. The Jets have been using Johnson in the receiving game and it gave him a bit of a lift in PPR formats. Although, the loss of […]

Michael Carter - Week 8 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New York Jets running back Michael Carter has been the lead back for this offense over the last few weeks. The fourth round rookie came into the season stuck in a three-back committee. However, Carter has emerged as the best back in New York, which doesn't mean a ton in terms of fantasy production. In […]

Malcolm Brogdon Won't Play Against Nets

Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon (hamstring) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. The veteran guard is reportedly dealing with a strained hamstring, according to head coach Rick Carlisle.

Fred Vanvleet Not Bothered By Heavy Minutes

Toronto Raptors guard Fred VanVleet has mentioned that he is not concerned with the heavy minutes this season. He continued by saying he put in a ton of work during the offseason to prepare his body for this situation. The increased minutes should come with a higher usage as well. Vanvleet has looked good over […]

Aaron Nesmith Quickly Losing Minutes

Boston Celtics guard Aaron Nesmith is beginning to lose the trust of head coach Ime Udoka. The organization wants Nesmith to slow down and play like he was during the summer league. Through three games, Nesmith has played 27 minutes and has failed to make a shot. It sounds like the Celtics will continue running […]

Joel Embiid Goes Through Shootaround

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) was able to get through shootaround on Thursday. The organization has Embiid listed as questionable, but he is trending towards playing on Thursday. However, fantasy managers will need him to get through warmups without any issues before getting cleared. It sounds like the Sixers big man should be back […]

Nerlens Noel Will Be Sidelined On Thursday

New York Knicks center Nerlens Noel (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Chicago Bulls. This is not shocking as Noel continues dealing with a lingering knee issue. He has not played in a game this season, but appears to be getting closer to a return. Noel is worth stashing in category […]

Atlanta Hawks guards Trae Young (shin) and Kevin Huerter (ankle) are both expected to play in Thursday's game against the Washington Wizards. Both players are listed as probable while dealing with minor injuries. Also, Lou Williams (ankle) and Bogdan Bogdanovic (ankle) are listed as questionable to suit up on Thursday. That means, Young and Huerter […]

Bogdan Bogdanovic Questionable Against Wizards

Atlanta Hawks guard Bogdan Bogdanovic (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Washington Wizards. The Hawks could be shorthanded here with Lou Williams (ankle), Trae Young (shin) and Kevin Huerter (ankle) all banged up right now. The hope is that most of them should be able to suit up on Thursday. Bogdanovic […]

Norman Powell Could Miss Wednesday's Game

Portland Trail Blazers forward Norman Powell (knee) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. The organization has not given a timetable for Powell's return, but it has only been two days. He is dealing with left patellar tendinopathy, so the Blazers could be cautious with him when he does play. Fantasy […]

Zach LaVine Plans To Play Through Injury

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (thumb) has been a key contributor to the 4-0 start to the season. However, it was announced that LaVine has suffered a small ligament tear in his left thumb. Despite that, the All-Star guard plans to play through the issue. This is mostly going to be a pain tolerance type […]

Anthony Davis Could Sit Versus OKC

Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (knee) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He is reportedly dealing with right knee soreness, but has a chance of suiting up. LeBron James (ankle) has already been ruled out, which gives the Lakers more incentive to play Davis. The Lakers would be […]

LeBron James Won't Play On Wednesday

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He sat out of Tuesday's game after he suffered an ankle injury during the game prior. It appears the Lakers are going to be cautious with their superstar forward. Malik Monk should remain in the starting […]

Kristaps Porzingis Tagged As Questionable For Thursday

Dallas Mavericks center Kristaps Porzingis (back) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. On Tuesday, head coach Jason Kidd mentioned Porzingis was fine despite pulling him out early the game prior due to back issues. It wouldn't be shocking to see the Mavericks rest Porzingis due to his long injury […]

Nerlens Noel Uncertain For Tuesday's Game

New York Knicks center Nerlens Noel (knee) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He has missed each of the first three games due to left knee soreness.

Mitchell Robinson Ready To Play On Tuesday

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (foot) is not listed on the injury report ahead of Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He went down after Jalen Suggs stepped on his ankle during Sunday's matchup. Robinson limped to the sideline and there was immediately concern because it was the same foot he had surgery on […]

Andre Iguodala Expected To Play Against Thunder

Golden State Warriors forward Andre Iguodala (hip) is listed as probable for Tuesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He originally injured his hip during Thursday's game. Iguodala sat out on Sunday as a precaution, but should be good to return here. Through the first two games, Iguodala averaged 8.0 points, 3.5 boards and 2.5 […]

LeBron James Downgraded To Questionable

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) has been downgraded to questionable ahead of Tuesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. James fell to the floor and Desmond Bone accidentally landed on his ankle in the first half of Sunday's contest. The good news is, James was able to continue playing through the issue. He […]

De'Andre Hunter Able To Practice On Tuesday

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (illness) was able to get through Tuesday's practice, according to Nate McMillan.

It sounds like the Hawks plan […]

Pascal Siakam Practices On Tuesday

Toronto Raptors forward Pascal Siakam (shoulder) was able to fully practice on Tuesday, according to head coach Nick Nurse. It sounds like the plan is for Siakam to head to the G-League on Wednesday. He'll get in some work there, but probably won't return to the Raptors rotation until mid-November. This is good news for […]

Jaylen Brown Tagged As Questionable For Monday

Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown (knee) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. He sat out of Sunday's game with what the team is calling left knee tendinopathy. The Celtics might decide to play it safe and sit Brown for this game. Dennis Schroder would likely be asked to start again […]

Al Horford Uncertain To Play Against Hornets

Boston Celtics forward Al Horford (groin) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. The veteran big man continues to work his way back from COVID-19. He was able to play 30 minutes on Sunday, so it wouldn't be shocking to see Horford sit out here. He is still trying to get […]

Bobby Portis Could Make Season Debut On Monday

Milwaukee Bucks center Bobby Portis (hamstring) has been sidelined to begin the season, but could see his first regular season action on Monday against the Indiana Pacers. The return of Portis would give the Bucks some much-needed depth up front. Brook Lopez (back) won't suit up, so the Bucks have been playing Giannis Antetokounmpo at […]

LaMarcus Aldridge To Rest On Monday

Brooklyn Nets center LaMarcus Aldridge (rest) won't suit up for Monday's game against the Washington Wizards. The veteran big man will sit this one out for rest purposes. That is not surprising news considering it's a back-to-back set and Aldridge was dealing with blood clots last season. His absence should mean more minutes for Paul […]

Bruce Brown Listed As Probable For Monday

Brooklyn Nets guard Bruce Brown (calf) is listed as probable for Monday's game against the Washington Wizards. Brown has missed the first two contests due to a right calf contusion. He was able to play in their most recent contest and lasted 27 minutes in that one. Brown will likely get consistent minutes if he […]

P.J. Washington Could Sit Out Against Boston

Charlotte Hornets forward P.J. Washington (knee) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Boston Celtics. The young forward was able to play 26 minutes on Sunday. The fact it's a back-to-back set could mean Washington sits out this game as a precaution. Jalen McDaniels would likely be asked to fill in, assuming Washington […]

Jerami Grant Could Miss Monday's Game

Detroit Pistons forward Jerami Grant (elbow) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Atlanta Falcons. He is dealing with a left elbow infection, which does not sound good for his status on Monday. Fantasy managers shouldn't be surprised if Grant is forced to miss time from this issue. Saddiq Bey and Hamidou Diallo, […]

Jaylen Waddle Continues Success In Week 7

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle has seen an uptick in targets with DeVante Parker (hamstring) sidelined. In Week 7, Waddle hauled in seven of his eight targets for 83 yards in the loss to the Atlanta Falcons. Those 83 yards were a career-high for Waddle as he continues to build chemistry with quarterback Tua […]

Mike Gesicki Makes Easy Work Of Falcons

Miami Dolphins tight end Mike Gesicki has been one of the better options at his position over the last month or so. In Week 7, Gesicki hauled in seven of his eight targets for 85 yards and one touchdown in the loss to the Atlanta Falcons. The Dolphins are banged up at wideout, so Gesicki […]

Salvon Ahmed Gets Involved In Week 7

Miami Dolphins running back Salvon Ahmed has seen an inconsistent workload through the first half of the regular season. In Week 7, Ahmed rushed seven times for 26 yards and hauled in two receptions for 26 yards in the loss to the Atlanta Falcons. Honestly, it's uncertain if Ahmed would've seen that many carries if […]
