Darwin Thompson Should See More Opportunities

Kansas City Chiefs running back Darwin Thompson has been worked into the offense more often since the beginning of December. The Chiefs are banged up in the backfield and need Thompson to step up and help the team. Both Darrel Williams (hamstring) and Spencer Ware (shoulder) are on the IR for the rest of the […]

LeSean McCoy Should Play in Week 17

Kansas City Chiefs running back LeSean McCoy was a healthy scratch from the Week 16 victory over the Chicago Bears. Head coach Andy Reid wants to limit McCoy's workload as the playoffs approach. The Chiefs backfield is banged up, so McCoy should be back in action against the Chargers in Week 17. Damien Williams is […]

Damien Williams Has RB2 Value Versus Chargers

Kansas City Chiefs running back Damien Williams returned with a bang last week against the Chicago Bears. He missed the previous three games due to a ribs injury, but looks strong once again. He should have reliable RB2 value against the Chargers in the regular season finale. However, the Chiefs have been using a committee […]

Patrick Mahomes Has Tough Challenge in Week 17

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes has turned around his mini slump with two solid performances over the last two games. Mahomes has four touchdowns with one interception over his last two contests. He looks to close out the regular season against a Chargers Defense that ranks near the top in passing defense. Mahomes competed […]

Marvin Bagley is Out on Saturday

Sacramento Kings forward Marvin Bagley (foot) is listed as out for Saturday's game against the Phoenix Suns. Bagley is visiting a specialist this weekend, so it's not surprising that he's been ruled out here. Richaun Holmes and Nemanja Bjelica have been reliable options this season and should see increased value without Bagley available on Saturday.

De'Aaron Fox is Doubtful for Saturday

Sacramento Kings guard De'Aaron Fox (back) is doubtful for Saturday's game against the Phoenix Suns. His MRI did come back clean, but the Kings are going to be careful with their young guard. Bogdan Bogdanovic will be asked to step up if Fox sits out. He'd be worth looking at for DFS contests. Cory Joseph […]

Mitchell Robinson is Fine for Saturday

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (toe) is available for Saturday's game against the Washington Wizards. He sprained his toe last week and made the issue worse during Thursday's contest. However, it appears that Robinson is going to be fine for this game. Taj Gibson and Bobby Portis will continue to play their same roles. […]

Marcus Smart Will Return on Saturday

Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart (eye) will return for Saturday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He's been sidelined since early December due to an eye infection that spread into both of his eyes. It doesn't sound like he's going to be limited on Saturday, which means less playing time for Brad Wanamaker. Gordon Hayward might […]

Clint Capela Won't Play Against Nets

Houston Rockets center Clint Capela (heel) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He was listed as doubtful on Friday and will sit this game out due to a right heel contusion. Capela was able to play through it on Monday and Wednesday, but will sit this one out. Tyson Chandler […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo is Listed as Out for Saturday

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (back) is listed as out for Saturday's game against the Orlando Magic. He's set to miss his second game in a row after suffering a back injury earlier in the week. Ersan Ilyasova is expected to draw the start and he was great in his last game. Donte Divincenzo, D.J. […]

Tobias Harris is Questionable for Saturday

Philadelphia 76ers forward Tobias Harris (hip) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Miami Heat. He looked good during Friday's game, but tweaked his right hip in the process. Furkan Korkmaz, James Ennis, and possibly Mike Scott would see increased playing time if Harris sits out. None of those players are reliable streaming […]

Kevin Love is Ruled Out for Saturday

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Kevin Love (hip) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He reportedly injured his right hip during their last game and will sit this one out. Larry Nance Jr. should slide into the starting five, while John Henson could see a few extra minutes. Nance has been a […]

Darius Garland Could Sit Out on Saturday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Darius Garland (ankle) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He likely suffered the right ankle issue during their last contest, but hopefully it's only a minor issue. Kevin Porter Jr. would benefit the most if Garland is forced out of this contest. He'd be worth looking at […]

LeBron James is Uncertain for Saturday

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (groin) remains questionable for Saturday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. It's going to depend on how James feels after shootaround, according to head coach Frank Vogel. He's listed as questionable, but James has only sat out one game all season. Fantasy owners should expect him out there, but […]

Deandre Ayton Won't Suit Up on Saturday

Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton (ankle) is listed as out for Saturday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He was able to go through practice on Thursday, but the Suns are going to be cautious with their star center. Aron Baynes should get another start, while Frank Kaminsky and Dario Saric get some extra playing time […]

Devin Booker is Probable for Saturday

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (thumb) is probable for Saturday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He looked fine during Friday's game versus the Warriors where he dropped 34 points. Fantasy owners shouldn't be worried about Booker sitting despite the probable tag. Check back before tip-off just in case something cases closer to game time.

Andrew Wiggins is Questionable Against Cavs

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Andrew Wiggins (illness) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Wiggins is under the weather, so he'll likely be a game time decision for this one. Jarrett Culver and Josh Okogie would be asked to play big minutes if Wiggins sits out. Both could be deep league streaming […]

Paul Millsap Ruled Out for Saturday

Denver Nuggets forward Paul Millsap (quad) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Millsap suffered a left knee contusion last week, so the Nuggets might just being playing it safe here with their veteran forward. Mason Plumlee will draw the start, which means Jerami Grant will come off the bench. Plumlee […]

Karl-Anthony Towns is Questionable Against Cavs

Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He's getting closer to a return, but the Wolves are going to wait until he's 100 percent healthy before letting him back on the court. Gorgui Dieng will remain a fantasy option until Towns is ready to play […]

Jabari Parker is Downgraded to Questionable

Atlanta Hawks forward Jabari Parker (shoulder) is downgraded to questionable for Saturday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. He was listed as probable on Thursday, but has been downgraded as game time approaches. John Collins has taken away most of Parker's value, so fantasy owners should begin looking for better fantasy options regardless.

Bradley Beal is Questionable for Saturday

Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal (leg) is questionable for Saturday's game against the New York Knicks. He left Thursday's game against the Pistons in the third quarter and didn't return due to lower leg soreness. The Wizards season isn't going in the right direction and they might decide to rest their star player here. Troy […]

Eric Gordon Suits Up for Practice on Friday

Houston Rockets guard Eric Gordon (knee) was able to practice on Friday and is expected to play in Sunday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Gordon underwent right knee surgery in November, but appears ready to return now. Russell Westbrook (knee) is going to sit out on Sunday after playing in Saturday's contest. Gordon wasn't […]

Clint Capela is Doubtful for Saturday

Houston Rockets center Clint Capela (heel) is listed as doubtful for Saturday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He's been dealing with a bruised right heel, but played 41 minutes on Monday. However, Capela only played 29 minutes on Christmas Day, so the Rockets could be attempting to limit him. Tyson Chandler and Isaiah Hartenstein will […]

Russell Westbrook Will Play on Saturday

Houston Rockets guard Russell Westbrook will suit up for Saturday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. However, Westbrook will sit out the second game of the back-to-back set on Sunday. Austin Rivers, Ben McLemore, and Eric Gordon (knee) will be asked to do more on Sunday. All of them could be useful deep league options, but […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo is Downgraded to Doubtful

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (back) is downgraded to doubtful for Friday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. He was listed as probable on Thursday, so it's quite surprising to see a different story now. However, the Bucks play again on Saturday, so this is possibly the team playing it safe. Khris Middleton would be asked […]

LeBron James Should Play on Saturday

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (groin) is expected to travel with the team and play against the Portland Trail Blazers on Saturday. He re-aggravated his groin during Wednesday's game, but received treatment on Thursday. Fantasy owners should check back for another update on Saturday. However, it sounds like James is going to be ready […]

Dennis Schroder is Questionable on Saturday

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Dennis Schroder (ankle) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. He seemed fine on Thursday when he dropped 20 points with three rebounds and three assists against the Grizzlies. Chris Paul would be asked to carry the load more on offense if Schroder misses time. Deonte Burton […]

Mitchell Robinson Could Sit Out on Saturday

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (toe) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Washington Wizards. He looked good during Thursday's game, but picked up a toe injury along the way. Taj Gibson and Bobby Portis would see increased playing time if Robinson is forced to sit out. Both players could be worth […]

Marvin Bagley Doesn't Practice on Friday

Sacramento Kings forward Marvin Bagley (foot) was unable to suit up for Friday's practice. He suffered a left foot injury during Thursday's game and didn't return to that contest. The Kings are going to be cautious with Bagley, so he could sit out a game or two. Nemanja Bjelica would start if Bagley is unable […]

Otto Porter Wants to Return Around All-Star Break

Chicago Bulls forward Otto Porter (foot) is hopeful that he'll be able to get back on the court around the All-Star break. Fantasy owners who were holding Porter can feel safe to drop him now. He wasn't playing well before the injury and the Bulls aren't exactly a competitive team right now. Fantasy owners can […]
