Harrison Barnes Misses Thursday's Practice

Sacramento Kings forward Harrison Barnes (ankle) didn't suit up for practice on Thursday. The 30-year-old tweaked his ankle, so he didn't participate in practice. Despite that, Barnes is expected to suit up for their postseason matchup on Saturday. The absence of Barnes would likely mean additional playing time for Malik Monk and Terence Davis. Between […]

Karl-Anthony Towns Questionable For Friday

Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns (calf) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The big man was questionable ahead of Tuesday's game as well, but ended up playing 41 minutes in that game. The expectation is that Towns will be able to play through his strained right calf. Towns might […]

Jaylen Nowell Questionable For Friday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Jaylen Nowell (knee) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Nowell was available on Tuesday, but only ended up playing 13 minutes in the loss to the Los Angeles Lakers. The expectation is that Nowell will suit up again, but probably won't play near his season average […]

Matt Feiler Signs With Buccaneers

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have signed offensive guard Matt Feiler to a one-year deal. The 30-year-old is an experienced player who has started with both the Pittsburgh Steelers and Los Angeles Chargers. He has spent each of the last two seasons as the starting left guard in Los Angeles. However, Feiler does have experience at […]

Trace McSorley Signs With Patriots

The New England Patriots have signed quarterback Trace McSorley to a one-year contract. The 27-year-old saw some extended playing time after Kyler Murray went down last season. In six games, McSorley finished with 412 passing yards, zero touchdowns and five interceptions with the Arizona Cardinals last season. The former sixth-round pick is nothing more than […]

Jeff Driskel Visits With Cardinals

Free-agent quarterback Jeff Driskel visited with the Arizona Cardinals on Thursday. The Cardinals are uncertain if Kyler Murray will be back in time for Week 1. That being said, it appears that the Cardinals are looking to add insurance to their quarterback room. Driskel split reps with Davis Mills in Houston down the stretch last […]

Khris Middleton Practices On Thursday

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (knee) was able to get through a full practice on Thursday. This is a good sign that Middleton will be available for the first round of the postseason. The Bucks have been cautious with Middleton throughout most of the season as he works his way back from injury. It's worth […]

Andrew Wiggins Available For Saturday

Golden State Warriors guard Andrew Wiggins (personal) will be available for Saturday's playoff matchup against the Sacramento Kings. This is great news after Wiggins missed over 20 games due to personal reasons. That being said, Wiggins is only expected to play 20-25 minutes in his first game back. It's not shocking that he'll have a […]

Aleksej Pokusevski To Remain Out On Friday

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Aleksej Pokusevski (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. The 21-year-old will miss another game as he continues to deal with a left knee contusion. His absence led to Jalen Williams playing 40 minutes during Wednesday's play-in matchup against the New Orleans Pelicans. The assumption is […]

Rudy Gobert Uncertain For Friday's Contest

Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (back) is eligible to return to the court after serving his one-game suspension. However, head coach Chris Finch said Gobert's status is uncertain for Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. It sounds like the big man is dealing with back spasms. This is a playoff game, so the assumption […]

CJ McCollum To Undergo Surgery

New Orleans Pelicans guard CJ McCollum (shoulder) struggled during Wednesday's loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder. Afterwards, the 31-year-old mentioned he played the final seven games of the regular season with a torn labrum in his shoulder. McCollum also said that he plans to undergo thumb surgery this offseason. Possibly, nagging injuries are part of […]

Jamal Murray Practices On Wednesday

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (thumb) was able to get through a full practice session on Wednesday. The 26-year-old has been dealing with a right thumb sprain for a little over a week. Despite that, Murray is expected to suit up for Sunday's playoff matchup. There is no indication that Murray is going to be […]

Isaac Okoro Gets In Limited Practice

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Isaac Okoro (knee) was able to get through a limited practice session on Wednesday. The 22-year-old missed the final seven games of the regular season due to left knee soreness. Since then, head coach J.B. Bickerstaff has been experimenting with different starters. That being said, Lamar Stevens, Caris LeVert and Dean Wade […]

Marcus Morris Sr. Practices On Wednesday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Marcus Morris Sr. (back) was able to participate during Wednesday's practice session. That is great news considering Morris has missed the last seven games due to back spasms. At the moment, Morris should be considered questionable for Sunday's Game 1 against the Phoenix Suns. If healthy, Morris is likely to move […]

Andrew Wiggins Looks Good In Scrimmages

Golden State Warriors guard Andrew Wiggins (personal) continues to work his way back into game shape. The 28-year-old missed over 20 games due to personal reasons. Head coach Steve Kerr recently mentioned that Wiggins looked good during scrimmages. It seems like all signs are pointing to Wiggins being available for Game 1 against the Sacramento […]

Larry Nance Jr. To Miss Wednesday's Contest

New Orleans Pelicans forward Larry Nance Jr. (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's playoff contest against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Nance was able to play 17 minutes during Sunday's loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. However, it appears the left ankle issue is still bothering Nance. His absence should open up additional playing time for […]

Drey Jameson Impressive On Wednesday

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Drey Jameson was recently shifted from the bullpen to the starting rotation. The loss of veteran right-hander Zach Davies (oblique) has made an opening for Jameson in the starting rotation. The 25-year-old took full advantage of that during Wednesday's outing. He threw four shutout innings during Wednesday's win over the Milwaukee […]

Adam Oller To Start On Thursday

Oakland Athletics pitcher Adam Oller will make the start against the Baltimore Orioles on Thursday. The 28-year-old has made two relief appearances this season, but will be asked to make a start on Thursday. Oller is primarily a starter, but the A's have been using him in relief to begin the season. Regardless of where […]

Darin Ruf Joining Giants On Wednesday

The San Francisco Giants have selected the contract of infielder Darin Ruf from Triple-A Sacramento. The 36-year-old is back with the Giants after being released by the New York Mets following spring training. Ruf will serve as the designated hitter and bat fifth versus left-hander Clayton Kershaw on Wednesday. In a corresponding move, righty pitcher […]

Taylor Walls Returns On Wednesday

Tampa Bay Rays infielder Taylor Walls (elbow) is back in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Boston Red Sox. The switch-hitting infielder is back after missing the last four games due to discomfort in his elbow. He'll cover third base and bat seventh versus lefty Chris Sale on Wednesday. Fantasy managers can probably […]

Adam Ottavino Records First Save

New York Mets relief pitcher Adam Ottavino was asked to take the mound in the ninth inning during Wednesday's game against the San Diego Padres. Normally, David Robertson is the closer in New York, but that was not the case on Wednesday. Robertson pitched in part of the seventh inning and threw a scoreless frame […]

Yandy Diaz Playing On Wednesday

Tampa Bay Rays infielder Yandy Diaz (shoulder) is back in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Boston Red Sox. There was some concern that Diaz would miss this game after injuring his shoulder on Tuesday. Manager Kevin Cash said Diaz was fine afterwards, so it appears Diaz avoided serious injury. He'll bat leadoff […]

Thairo Estrada Sitting Out On Tuesday

San Francisco Giants second baseman Thairo Estrada (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers. Fantasy managers shouldn't need to worry as this appears to be a routine rest day for Estrada. He's been off to a hot start slashing .324/.359/.459 with a homer, four RBI and a […]

Joey Gallo Taking Swings On Tuesday

Minnesota Twins outfielder Joey Gallo (side) doesn't believe he'll require a trip to the injured list. The left-handed slugger said he felt good after taking swings prior to Tuesday's game against the Chicago White Sox. The 29-year-old remains out on Tuesday and hasn't played since being pulled out early during Friday's contest. Possibly, the Twins […]

Kyle Hendricks To Throw On Wednesday

Chicago Cubs starting pitcher Kyle Hendricks (shoulder) is scheduled to throw two innings of batting practice sessions on Wednesday. The right-hander continues to work his way back from a torn capsule in his right shoulder. The expectation is that he'll be sent out for a rehab assignment, assuming the batting practice session goes well. Although, […]

Seth Brown To Miss At Least One Month

Oakland Athletics outfielder Seth Brown (oblique) was placed on the 10-day injured list on Monday. The left-handed slugger suffered a Grade 2 oblique strain on a check swing during Saturday's game. The organization expects Brown to be sidelined roughly 4-to-6 weeks. It sounds like the best case is that Brown returns in mid-May, but it'll […]

Avisail Garcia Remains Out On Tuesday

Miami Marlins outfielder Avisail Garcia (hamstring) remains out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia Phillies. The 31-year-old hasn't played since being pulled out of Sunday's contest due to left hamstring soreness. The team hasn't placed Garcia on the injured list yet, so that's a good sign. Hopefully, Garcia only needs a […]

Ramon Laureano Sitting Out Tuesday

Oakland Athletics outfielder Ramon Laureano (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Baltimore Orioles. The right-handed slugger will get a well deserved day off after playing in the first 10 games to begin the season. He's hitting .250 with two home runs and four RBI in that span. Brent Rooker […]

Andrew McCutchen Resting On Tuesday

Pittsburgh Pirates outfielder Andrew McCutchen (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Houston Astros. This appears to be nothing more than a routine day off for the veteran outfielder. The 36-year-old has been off to a hot start at the plate this season. He's slashing .333/.486/.519 with a homer, three […]

Myles Murphy Meeting With Jaguars

Clemson defensive end Myles Murphy should be a no-brainer first-round pick after his impressive Pro Day. The Jacksonville Jaguars have already set up a meeting with Murphy on Monday. After that, Murphy will meet with the Cincinnati Bengals, Houston Texans, and Atlanta Falcons. It'll be interesting to see where Murphy lands on draft day. He […]
