Kawhi Leonard Drops 32 Points In Win

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard put on a show during Thursday's win over the Oklahoma City Thunder. The superstar forward is going to be asked to take on a bigger role with Paul George (knee) sidelined for the next few weeks. Leonard looked great on Thursday as he only missed two shots from the […]

Dennis Smith Jr. Pulled Early On Thursday

Charlotte Hornets guard Dennis Smith Jr. (illness) was removed early during Thursday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. It was a bad night for the Hornets with Terry Rozier (foot) and Kelly Oubre Jr. (shoulder) also exiting early during this game. Smith started the third quarter when Rozier left due to injury. However, he didn't […]

Khris MIddleton Won't Play On Friday

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (rest) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Utah Jazz. He wasn't originally on the injury report, but the team has decided to give him a rest day for his right knee injury. Pat Connaughton figures to gain the most fantasy value with Middleton on the sideline. Connaughton […]

Franz Wagner Won't Return On Thursday

Orlando Magic forward Franz Wagner (ankle) has been ruled out for the rest of Thursday's game against the New York Knicks. The young forward suffered a sprained left ankle during the third quarter. Wagner was taken to the locker room with help from the team trainers. Cole Anthony and Caleb Houstan should both see additional […]

Bradley Beal Won't Suit Up On Friday

Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. The superstar guard will miss his second game in a row due to left knee soreness. The Wizards are likely to use a committee approach to try and fill the void of Beal. That means, Jordan Goodwin, […]

Tyrese Haliburton Considered Questionable For Friday

Indiana Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton (ankle) is considered questionable for Friday's game against the Boston Celtics. The 23-year-old has missed the last six games due to a sprained right ankle. The hope is that Haliburton returns on Friday, but he'll likely be limited if he does play. Otherwise, T.J. McConnell and Andrew Nembhard will continue […]

Eric Gordon Gets Starting Nod On Thursday

Los Angeles Clippers guard Eric Gordon will move into the starting five for Thursday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Clippers are looking to fill the void with Paul George (knee) sidelined for the next few weeks. Gordon should receive a boost in fantasy value with a shift to the starting five. Fellow guard […]

Kelly Oubre Jr. Won't Return On Thursday

Charlotte Hornets forward Kelly Oubre Jr. (shoulder) has been ruled out for the rest of Thursday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. More bad news for the Hornets with Terry Rozier (foot) exiting early during this game. Now, Oubre leaves after 12 minutes due to a left shoulder strain. The Hornets don't have any reason […]

Deandre Ayton To Miss Next Two Games

Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton (hip) has been ruled out for both games of the back-to-back set. The big man continues to deal with a right hip contusion, which will force him to miss Friday and Saturday's game. His next chance to play would be Monday against the Utah Jazz. However, it's uncertain if he'll […]

Terry Rozier Doubtful To Return On Thursday

Charlotte Hornets guard Terry Rozier (foot) is considered doubtful to return for Thursday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. He was only able to play 10 minutes before exiting due to right foot discomfort. There's a good chance that the Hornets decide to hold out Rozier for the rest of the night. Dennis Smith Jr. […]

Mychal Givens Resumes Throwing

Baltimore Orioles relief pitcher Mychal Givens (knee) resumed throwing from flat ground on Thursday. The right-hander is working his way back from left knee soreness. The injury continues to linger which puts his status for Opening Day in jeopardy. The fact Givens has resumed throwing is a good sign, but he still has more work […]

Josh Winckowski To Begin Season In Bullpen

Boston Red Sox pitcher Josh Winckowski will begin the regular season in the bullpen. The 24-year-old was mainly a starter with the team last season. However, he struggled with a 5.89 ERA with 10 home runs allowed in 15 games (14 starts) in 2022. The right-hander looked much better this spring, allowing two unearned runs […]

Drey Jameson Roughed Up On Thursday

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Drey Jameson was roughed up on the mound during Thursday's Cactus League matchup against the Los Angeles Dodgers. The right-hander is battling Ryne Nelson for the final spot in the Diamondbacks rotation. The 25-year-old didn't have his best outing, allowing four runs over 4 1/2 innings on Thursday. Despite that, Jameson […]

Michael Soroka Optioned To Minors

Atlanta Braves starting pitcher Michael Soroka has been optioned to Triple-A Gwinnett on Thursday. This doesn't come as a surprise considering Soroka still needs to build up his stamina. The oft-injured pitcher recently made his spring debut, but he really had no shot at making the Opening Day roster. The expectation is that he'll likely […]

Drew Rucinski Resumes Throwing

Oakland Athletics starting pitcher Drew Rucinski (hamstring) has resumed throwing on Thursday. Manager Mark Kotsay mentioned that the organization is hopeful that Rucinski will be ready by Opening Day. However, he also said he's going to let things play out considering hamstring issues do have a tendency to linger. The 34-year-old reinvented himself while pitching […]

Daniel Lynch Removed Early On Thursday

Kansas City Royals pitcher Daniel Lynch (shoulder) was removed early during Thursday's Cactus League matchup against the San Diego Padres. The left-hander was pulled out from his relief appearance due to left shoulder discomfort. The assumption is that the organization is going to have Lynch undergo additional testing. There's a decent chance that Lynch begins […]

Mitchell Robinson To Play On Thursday

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (knee) will suit up for Thursday's game against the Orlando Magic. The big man will play in this game after being considered questionable earlier in the day. He finished with 10 points, eight rebounds, and three blocks during this last game. Robinson should be a fine streaming option, assuming […]

Jalen Brunson Officially Out For Thursday

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson (hand) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Orlando Magic. He was listed as questionable earlier in the day, but will officially sit out this game due to sprained right hand. In his absence, Immanuel Quickley will move into the starting five. He has been quite impressive […]

LeBron James Begins On-Court Activity

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (foot) has begun doing some on-court activities. Despite that, the Lakers don't have a timetable for James return to the court.

Jalen Brunson Uncertain For Thursday

New York Knicks guard Jalen Brunson (hand) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Orlando Magic. He already missed three games before he was able to return and play in three games. Now, Brunson is in danger of missing more time due to a sprained right hand. His absence would mean that Immanuel […]

Jalen Duren Removed From Injury Report

Detroit Pistons center Jalen Duren (neck) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Friday's game against the Toronto Raptors. The big man missed Tuesday's game due to a neck issue, but appears to be feeling better now. The 19-year-old has produced three double-doubles over his last five healthy appearances. Duren appears to be […]

Brandon Powell Joining Vikings

The Minnesota Vikings have signed wide receiver Brandon Powell to a one-year contract. This deal makes sense considering Powell played under Vikings head coach Kevin O'Connell while the two were in Los Angeles during the 2021 campaign. The 27-year-old opened up last season as a special teamer, but quickly found his way into more work. […]

Patriots Re-Sign Jalen Mills

The New England Patriots have re-signed defensive back Jalen Mills on Wednesday. The two sides have agreed on a one-year contract worth up to $6.1 million for the 2023 season. The organization released Mills earlier this offseason, which saved the team $5 million in cap space. Now, the two sides come together again with what […]

DeMar DeRozan Won't Return On Wednesday

Chicago Bulls forward DeMar DeRozan (quad) has been ruled out for the rest of Wednesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. DeRozan was really struggling in this game. He was 0-for-7 from the floor before exiting the game, so possibly the quad issue was part of the reason he was struggling. The Bulls were getting blown […]

Austin Reaves Moves Into Starting Five

Los Angeles Lakers guard Austin Reaves will move into the starting five for Wednesday's game against the Phoenix Suns. Head coach Darvin Ham hinted at changes in the lineup and that's exactly what happened. Reaves will move into the starting unit after a career-high 35-point performance on Sunday. Malik Beasley will head to the bench […]

Texans Sign Denzel Perryman

The Houston Texans have signed linebacker Denzel Perryman on Wednesday. The veteran linebacker met with the organization last week and clearly liked what they said. The two sides have come to an agreement on a one-year deal for the upcoming season. Perryman was limited to 12 games last season due to injuries. However, he earned […]

Foster Moreau Stepping Away From Football

Free-agent tight end Foster Moreau has decided to step away from the game on Wednesday. The 25-year-old announced that he has been diagnosed Hodgkin's Lymphoma, while undergoing a routine physical from the New Orleans Saints medical team. This is a shame considering Moreau was likely to claim a starting role for himself somewhere this offseason. […]

Jalen Suggs Ruled Out For Thursday

Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs (concussion) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the New York Knicks. The 21-year-old will miss at least one more contest while he remains in concussion protocol. It's uncertain how much longer he'll be sidelined, so fantasy managers will have to check back for another update. In the meantime, […]

D.J. Augustin Signs With Rockets

The Houston Rockets have signed guard D.J. Augustin for the rest of the season. The 35-year-old veteran hasn't played at all this season. He last played with the Houston Rockets and Los Angeles Lakers last season. Augustin will provide additional point guard depth to Houston. However, it's unlikely he has a large role in the […]

Nick Richards Signs Extension

Charlotte Hornets center Nick Richards has signed an extension with the organization. The two sides have agreed to a two-year extension worth $15 million. The 25-year-old was set to become a restricted free agent this summer. The Hornets didn't want that to happen considering Richards is in the middle of a breakout campaign. The big […]
