Reggie Jackson, Blake Griffin Will Make Preseason Debuts

Detroit Pistons guard Reggie Jackson (ankle) and power forward Blake Griffin will make their preseason debuts on Monday against the Nets. Both players will be on a minutes limit, but it's good to see them out on the court. Injuries are always a concern for both players, so it's not surprising to see the Pistons […]

Jordan Clarkson Resting on Monday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Jordan Clarkson (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Monday's preseason game against the Indiana Pacers. Clarkson is averaging 12.0 points, 4.0 rebounds and 3.0 assists while shooting 56.3 percent from the floor this preseason. It appears that Cavs just want to keep Clarkson well rested for the start of the […]

Tyreke Evans is Questionable Against Cavs

Indiana Pacers guard/forward Tyreke Evans (ankle) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Evans sat out the first preseason game, but was able to play in the second contest. Evans has a history with injuries, so it wouldn't be surprising to see the Pacers be cautious here. Evans could be a […]

Thaddeus Young Remains Out of the Lineup

Indiana Pacers forward Thaddeus Young (foot) remains out of the starting lineup for Monday's preseason game with the Cleveland Cavaliers. Young has not played in the preseason yet, but did return to practice. T.J. Leaf will see increased playing time with Young sidelined. Leaf is averaging 28 minutes this preseason, but that will likely change […]

Cory Joseph is Out on Monday

Indiana Pacers point guard Cory Joseph (knee) is out of Monday's preseason game versus the Cavaliers. Joseph has been playing fairly decent this preseason, so hopefully this injury doesn't cause him to miss much time. Aaron Holiday should see extra playing time with Joseph sidelined. Hopefully there will be an update on Joseph's status soon. […]

Kevin Love is Out on Monday

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Kevin Love (foot) is out of the lineup for Monday's preseason contest against the Indiana Pacers. Love is reportedly dealing with foot soreness, so hopefully it is not too serious. He is likely going to play a big role on the Cavs this season if he can stay healthy. However, staying healthy […]

Jonathon Simmons Will See Minutes at Both Guard Positions

Orlando Magic guard/forward Jonathon Simmons is expected to see minutes at both shooting guard and point guard this season, according to John Denton. Head coach Steve Clifford and Simmons are bonding well. Evan Fournier and D.J. Augustin are the current starters at the guard positions in Orlando. Neither player is locked into heavy minutes, so […]

Dario Saric Misses Monday's Game

Philadelphia 76ers forward Dario Saric (back) did not play in Monday's preseason loss to the Dallas Mavericks. This was a rest day for Saric who has been dealing with back soreness lately. Fantasy owners should not be worried because this sounds like a minor issue. Mike Muscala started in his place, but Saric will see […]

D.J. Stephens Signs With Grizzlies

The Memphis Grizzlies will sign guard/forward D.J. Stephens to a two-way contract. The 27-year-old last played in the NBA with Milwaukee during the 2013-2014 season. He is known for his athleticism, but it's unclear what kind of role he'll have in Memphis. There is a chance he carves out a role in the rotation or […]

Josh Reynolds Could Play Bigger Role Next Week

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Josh Reynolds hauled in his first two receptions of the season against the Seahawks in Week 5. He finished with two catches for 39 yards and rushed once for 10 yards. Reynolds is a talented receiver, but buried in the depth chart. However, both Brandin Cooks and Cooper Kupp went […]

Cooper Kupp Hauls in TD Before Exiting

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp could've had a much bigger day if he was not forced to exit the game early on Sunday. He did not play in the second half and the team announced he was being placed in concussion protocol. Kupp caught six passes for 90 yards and one touchdown just […]

Robert Woods Continues Solid Play

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Robert Woods continues to be a solid fantasy option every week since his Week 1 dud. He caught five passes for 92 yards, but did not find the end zone against the Seahawks on Sunday. Brandin Cooks and Cooper Kupp were both sidelined with concussions, so Woods became the No. […]

Todd Gurley Scores Three TDs in Week 5

Los Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley had a fantastic week in terms of fantasy against the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday. Gurley rushed 22 times for 77 yards and three touchdowns in the 33-31 victory over the Rams. He only averaged 3.5 yards per carry, but that doesn't really matter when you score three touchdowns. […]

Jared Goff Has Ugly Performance Against Seahawks

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff was able to help his team pull off the win, but it wasn't pretty. Goff went 23-for-32 with 321 passing yards and one touchdown with two interceptions. However, Goff was able to get over 300 passing yards for the fourth consecutive week. To be fair, Goff did lose receivers […]

Harrison Butker Has Best Week Yet

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker had his best fantasy week of the season against the Jaguars in Week 5. Butker was able to knock down all three of his field goal attempts in the 30-14 victory over the Jags. Butker remains one of the best kickers in the NFL and showed us why on […]

Tyreek Hill Makes The Most of A Tough Challenge

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill was not able to capitalize on many opportunities against Jaguars elite cornerback Jalen Ramsey on Sunday. Hill caught four passes for 61 yards and was unable to find the end zone. Hill is always a threat for a big play, but it just didn't happen this week. He […]

Sammy Watkins Performs Well Against Jags

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins came into Week 5 nursing a hamstring injury from the prior week. Despite possibly not being 100 percent Watkins was still able to haul in six receptions for 78 yards. He was not able to find the end zone, but health is the biggest concern for Watkins right […]

Travis Kelce Continues His Success in Week 5

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce continued to show why he is one of the best tight ends in the league on Sunday. Kelce caught five passes for 100 yards, but was unable to find the end zone in the 30-14 victory over the Jaguars. Kelce could've had a touchdown in this game, but […]

Kareem Hunt Scores TD for Third Straight Week

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt has not been as elite as many fantasy owners thought he would be this season. Although, Hunt has been able to find the end zone four times on the ground over the last three games. He rushed 22 times for 87 yards and scored one touchdown in the […]

Patrick Mahomes Struggles For First Time This Season

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes had his worst game of the season against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday. Mahomes went 22-for-38 for 313 yards with zero touchdowns and two interceptions in the 30-14 victory over the Jags. However, Mahomes did rushed four times for 13 yards and one touchdown. Fantasy owners did not get […]

Milos Teodosic, Luc Mbah a Moute Out on Saturday

Los Angeles Clippers guard Milos Teodosic (hamstring) and forward Luc Mbah a Moute (calf) will not play in Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Both players are dealing with nagging injuries, so the Clippers will be cautious with them. Teodosic has upside, but injuries continue to haunt him. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has looked solid and […]

Rodions Kurucs Could Make Nets Rotation

Brooklyn Nets small forward Rodions Kurucs has a shot to make the rotation, according to head coach Kenny Atkinson. He was pick 40 in the Round 2 of the 2018 NBA Draft. Kurucs is athletic and has been impressive in camp so far this season. It's unclear what kind of role he would have in […]

Michael Beasley Should Be Back on Saturday

Los Angeles Lakers forward Michael Beasley (rib) suffered a rib injury on Thursday and was not able to return. The X-rays came back negative and Beasley is not expected to miss much time. There is a good chance that Beasley is able to suit up against the Clippers on Saturday. However, the Lakers may want […]

Clint Capela Expected to Practice on Saturday

Houston Rockets center Clint Capela (foot) says he feels better and is expected to practice on Saturday. Capela is dealing with foot soreness, but hopes to play on Sunday. The Rockets have been cautious with Capela, but it does not sound like this injury is serious. He is worth looking at in the third or […]

Lonzo Ball is Questionable for Saturday

Los Angeles Lakers point guard Lonzo Ball (knee) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. Ball has been out of game action since March, but was a full participant in practice this week. It'll be interesting to see how he's worked into the Lakers rotation this season. Regardless, Ball should be good […]

Julius Randle is Sitting Out on Friday

New Orleans Pelicans forward/center Julius Randle (back, hip) will not play against the Knicks on Friday. He was doubtful after he fell on Monday, but it does not appear that this issue is serious. Fantasy owners don't need to be worried about a long-term injury here. It sounds like Randle should be fine in a […]

Josh Richardson Remains Sidelined on Friday

Miami Heat guard/forward Josh Richardson (thigh) remains sidelined for the third straight game on Friday. Richardson is dealing with a left thigh contusion, but this does not seem too serious. He went through warmups, so there is a chance that he will play on Monday. Rodney McGruder and Justise Winslow will see more playing time […]

Robert Woods Should Stay Productive in Week 5

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Robert Woods has reached 100 yards and at least one touchdown in back-to-back weeks. There is a good chance that he does it for a third week in a row against the shaky Seahawks defense. The same defense that allowed 329 yards to the average Denver Broncos passing attack. Brandin […]

Cooper Kupp Should Be Reliable

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp has four touchdowns while finishing with at least 52 receiving yards through the first four games this season. He has a great matchup against the Seahawks who gave up 135 yards and a touchdown to slot receiver Emmanuel Sanders earlier this season. Kupp probably won't drop 162 yards […]

Brandin Cooks Should Be Excellent Against Seahawks

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Brandin Cooks has finished with at least 87 receiving yards in each game this season. He's caught seven passes in each of the last three games and is heading into a great matchup against Seattle. The Seahawks gave up 329 yards and three TDs to the Denver passing attack that […]
