Guerschon Yabusele is Absent on Saturday

Chicago Bulls forward Guerschon Yabusele (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Saturday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Yabusele drew the start on Friday with Nick Richards (elbow) unavailable. Now, both big men are sitting out for Saturday's contest, which puts the Bulls in a bad spot. Possibly, Lachlan Olbrich draws the start, but Patrick […]

Malik Monk Moves into Starting Five on Saturday

Sacramento Kings guard Malik Monk will move into the starting five ahead of Saturday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. Fellow guard Nique Clifford (foot) is available following a two-game absence. However, the Kings have elected to ease him back into action and start Monk on Saturday. Possibly, Clifford is going to be limited, but the […]

Jonathan Kuminga to Sit Out on Saturday

Atlanta Hawks forward Jonathan Kuminga (knee) has been ruled out ahead of Saturday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Unsurprisingly, Kuminga will take a seat in the second leg of this back-to-back set while he continues to deal with lingering knee issues. The Hawks are also without Dyson Daniels (toe) on Saturday, so the depth of […]

Onyeka Okongwu Won't Play on Saturday

Atlanta Hawks center Onyeka Okongwu (finger) has been ruled out ahead of Saturday's game against the Sacramento Kings. The big man appears to have suffered a finger injury that will keep him sidelined for this game. Luckily, fellow big man Jock Landale (shoulder) is back in the mix following a one-game absence. Landale should move […]

Jock Landale is Cleared for Saturday's Game

Atlanta Hawks center Jock Landale (shoulder) is available to play ahead of Saturday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Landale is back in the mix following a one-game absence due to a shoulder injury. Fellow big man Onyeka Okongwu (finger) is out, which means Landale should have an expanded role. Landale should start and play 25-plus […]

Dyson Daniels is Ruled Out for Saturday

Atlanta Hawks guard Dyson Daniels (toe) has been ruled out ahead of Saturday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Daniels was questionable coming into this game due to a left toe sprain. It appears to be significant enough to keep Daniels off the court for at least one game. His next chance to play will come […]

Zack Wheeler Looks Sharp in Rehab Start

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Zack Wheeler (shoulder) looked solid on the mound during his first minor-league rehab start with Triple-A Lehigh Valley on Saturday. The right-hander tossed three innings, allowing two hits, one walk, and striking out three batters. The plan was for Wheeler to throw 45 pitches, but he only needed 38 to get […]

Curtis Mead Traded to the Nationals

Chicago White Sox infielder Curtis Mead has been traded to the Washington Nationals in exchange for catcher Boston Smith. It didn't take long for the White Sox to find a trade partner after designating Mead for assignment before Opening Day. Mead doesn't offer a ton of upside with the bat, but is a decent depth […]

Michael McGreevy Throws Six No-Hit Innings

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Michael McGreevy was locked in against the Tampa Bay Rays on Saturday. McGreevy was stellar as he tossed six no-hit innings versus the Rays. The right-hander was pulled out of the game before allowing a hit. Sadly, the Cardinals' bullpen was unable to hold the lead for McGreevy. He finished […]

JJ Wetherholt Hits Walk-Off Single Against Tampa

St. Louis Cardinals infielder JJ Wetherholt came up clutch for his team during Saturday's game against the Tampa Bay Rays. Wetherholt blasted his first career home run on Thursday and had more fun in his second career game. It was mostly a quiet game for the rookie infielder until he came up to the plate […]

Quinn Priester Throws "Pain-Free" Bullpen Session

Milwaukee Brewers starting pitcher Quinn Priester (wrist) was able to throw a 'pain-free' bullpen session on Saturday. The plan is for Priester to throw one more session before heading to Arizona to face hitters. The right-hander is currently on the 15-day Injured List while he works his way back from thoracic outlet syndrome. Brewers manager […]

Kevin McGonigle Starting at Shortstop on Saturday

Detroit Tigers infielder Kevin McGonigle is making his first career start at shortstop on Saturday. The rookie infielder played the first two games of his career at third base.

Rob Dillingham is Available to Play on Friday

Chicago Bulls guard Rob Dillingham (knee) is available to play ahead of Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Dillingham will shed the probable tag and suit up for Friday's contest.

Isaac Okoro to Suit up on Friday

Chicago Bulls guard/forward Isaac Okoro (knee) is available to play ahead of Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Okoro finished with 13 points and two […]

Guerschon Yabusele is Available to Play

He figures to play a […]

Nick Richards Won't Play on Friday

Chicago Bulls center Nick Richards (elbow) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Richards is unavailable here after an elbow injury limited him to nine minutes during Wednesday's contest. Without Richards, the Bulls will need to lean on Guerschon Yabusele and Patrick Williams. Between the two, Yabusele is the […]

Jock Landale is Ruled Out for Friday

Atlanta Hawks center Jock Landale (shoulder) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Boston Celtics. Landale was a late addition to the injury report and will ultimately suit up due to a shoulder issue. His next chance to play will come on Saturday against the Sacramento Kings. Fantasy managers should check back […]

Aaron Nesmith to Play on Friday

Indiana Pacers forward Aaron Nesmith (back) is available to play ahead of Friday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. As expected, Nesmith will play through his lower back pain. It shouldn't be something that impacts his ability on the court. The 26-year-old has been producing solid numbers as of late. Over the last eight games, […]

Obi Toppin is Cleared for Friday's Game

Indiana Pacers forward Obi Toppin (back) has been upgraded to available ahead of Friday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. Toppin will shed the questionable tag and suit up despite dealing with back pain. This minor injury shouldn't impact his ability to play his regular role in the rotation. This season, Toppin is averaging 9.4 […]

Jordan Miller is Available on Friday

Los Angeles Clippers guard Jordan Miller (back) is available to play ahead of Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers. Miller is back in the mix after missing Wednesday's game due to back spasms.

Chet Holmgren Won't Play on Friday

Oklahoma City Thunder forward/center Chet Holmgren (hip) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He wasn't listed on the initial injury report, but will now take a seat due to a bruised left hip. His absence from the rotation should mean larger roles for Alex Caruso, Aaron Wiggins, and Cason […]

Anfernee Simons is Downgraded to Out

Chicago Bulls guard Anfernee Simons (wrist) has been downgraded to out ahead of Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Unsurprisingly, Simons will remain sidelined while he continues to recover from a fractured left wrist. He hasn't taken the court since February 21, and honestly might not play again this season. His absence should mean […]

Neemias Queta is Upgraded to Available

Boston Celtics center Neemias Queta (thumb) is available to play ahead of Friday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. Queta was listed as questionable coming into this game due to a right thumb sprain. Fantasy managers shouldn't be worried about the injury impacting his ability on the court. Over the last six games, Queta is averaging […]

Jaylen Brown is Ruled Out on Friday

Boston Celtics forward Jaylen Brown (calf) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. Brown was questionable coming into this game due to a right calf injury. The superstar forward won't be able to shake the questionable tag and has been downgraded to out. The absence of Brown should mean that […]

Derrick White is Cleared for Friday's Game

Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (knee) is available ahead of Friday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. White will shed the questionable tag and suit up despite dealing with a right knee injury. The expectation is that White will be asked to take on a larger role offensively with Jaylen Brown (calf) ruled out. This season, […]

Dejounte Murray to Sit Out on Friday

New Orleans Pelicans guard Dejounte Murray (Achilles) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Toronto Raptors.

New Orleans Pelicans guard Trey Murphy III (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Toronto Raptors. Murphy will officially miss both legs of this back-to-back set due to a right ankle injury. His next chance to play will come on Sunday, so fantasy managers should check back ahead of that game. […]

Miguel Vargas Could be Worth Stashing

Chicago White Sox third baseman Miguel Vargas went hitless during Thursday's Opening Day matchup against the Milwaukee Brewers. Vargas went 0-for-3 at the plate with a walk in the blowout loss. It wasn't an ideal start for Vargas, but that shouldn't stop fantasy managers from considering scooping him up. The 26-year-old was in the three-hole, […]

Mick Abel Could be a Sneaky Pickup

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Mick Abel is expected to make his season debut at some point during the upcoming series against the Kansas City Royals. Although fantasy managers might not want to wait until then to scoop up Abel. The young right-hander earned a spot in the starting rotation after an impressive performance during Spring […]

Giancarlo Stanton Collects Two Hits

New York Yankees outfielder Giancarlo Stanton got the season started the right way during Wednesday's Opening Day matchup versus the San Francisco Giants. Stanton went 2-for-4 with two singles and an RBI in the 7-0 win over the Giants. It was a nice beginning to the season for the oft-injured slugger who is hopeful to […]
