Kirk Cousins Disappoints Against Chicago

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Kirk Cousins struggled to get much done in a must-win game versus Chicago in Week 17. Cousins finished 20-for-33 with 132 passing yards and a touchdown in the 24-10 loss. Cousins had a fairly solid statistical season, throwing for 4,298 yards and 30 touchdowns with a 70 percent completion rating. His first […]

Travis Kelce Hauls in Five Receptions in Week 17

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce had a fairly slow game, but that's because fantasy owners usually always expect big games from Kelce. He caught five of his nine targets for 62 yards and was unable to find the end zone. His nine targets led the Chiefs, but he was just unable to haul […]

Tyreek Hill Goes Over 100 Yards Against Raiders

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill put together a solid game in Week 17 after two dud performances the two weeks prior. Hill caught five of his seven targets for 101 yards and a touchdown in the 35-3 victory. Hill also had one rushing attempt for 15 yards and a touchdown. He's been bothered […]

Damien Williams Scores TD in Victory over Raiders

Kansas City Chiefs running back Damien Williams was able to find the end zone once again in Week 17 versus the Oakland Raiders. Williams rushed 11 times for 51 yards and a touchdown in the 35-3 win. Williams was rested late in the game after it was clearly already over, otherwise he would've had better […]

Patrick Mahomes Plays Well in Week 17

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes did not have an explosive fantasy performance, but he was able to get the job done against the Raiders. Mahomes finished 14-for-24 with 281 passing yards and two touchdowns with one interception. Mahomes sat out in the fourth quarter, otherwise his stats would've been better. Mahomes finished the regular […]

Derrick Rose is Unlikely to Play on Sunday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Derrick Rose (ankle) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Miami Heat. Rose and Jeff Teague (ankle) are likely both going to be sitting out on Sunday. Rose has a history of ankle issues, so it wouldn't be surprising to see the Wolves play it safe. Tyus Jones is going […]

Jeff Teague is Doubtful for Sunday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Jeff Teague (ankle) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Miami Heat. Teague has missed the last six games due to left ankle inflammation, but appears to be getting closer to a return. Derrick Rose (ankle) is also doubtful for Sunday, so Tyus Jones is going to be a solid […]

Wesley Matthews Ruled Out on Friday

Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Wesley Matthews (foot) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Matthews played on Wednesday, but was limited and didn't play like himself. Dennis Smith Jr. (wrist) is expected to be active for this contest, so J.J. Barea will have short-term value once again until Matthews returns.

Markieff Morris is Doubtful for Friday

Washington Wizards forward Markieff Morris (back) is listed as doubtful for Friday's game against the Chicago Bulls. It appears Morris is dealing with some back stiffness and the Wizards are likely going to rest him for this contest. That should mean Jeff Green is forced into heavy minutes and Sam Dekker gets extra time on […]

Victor Oladipo Expected to Be Fine for Friday

Indiana Pacers guard Victor Oladipo (shoulder) tweaked his shoulder on Wednesday and did not go through parts of Thursday's practice. However, head coach Nate McMillan expects Oladipo to be ready for Friday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Fantasy owners should check back closer to game time, but he should be fine for Friday's contest.

Tristan Thompson Listed as Out on Friday

Cleveland Cavaliers center Tristan Thompson (foot) is listed as out for Friday's game against the Miami Heat. Thompson has been sidelined since early December, but did return to practice on Thursday. It appears he is not ready for game action yet, but Thompson is very close. Larry Nance is expected to lose playing time once […]

Rajon Rondo Will Miss One Month

Los Angeles Lakers guard Rajon Rondo (hand) will undergo surgery on his right hand and is expected to miss one month of game action. Rondo suffered a right finger sprain earlier in the week, but thought he could play through it. That is not the case and Rondo will now require surgery that will forced […]

Aaron Gordon is Probable for Friday

Orlando Magic forward Aaron Gordon (illness) was reportedly sick on Thursday, but is expected to play in Friday's game against the Toronto Raptors, according to head coach Steve Clifford. Gordon has been in a slump lately, but maybe once he shakes off this illness he will perform better. Fantasy owners shouldn't have anything to worry […]

John Wall, Bradley Beal Expected to Play on Friday

Washington Wizards guards John Wall (rest) and Bradley Beal (illness) did not participate in Friday's shootaround, but are both expected to suit up for Friday's game against the Chicago Bulls. It doesn't sound like either player is in danger of sitting out at all. Fantasy owners are safe to plug them into their fantasy lineups […]

Dennis Smith Jr. Expected to Play on Friday

Dallas Mavericks guard Dennis Smith Jr. (wrist) is active for Friday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans, according to head coach Rick Carlisle. Smith has missed the last six games, so this is great news for the Mavs. J.J. Barea will lose some playing time with Smith returning. Luka Doncic won't be asked to do […]

Hassan Whiteside is Probable on Friday

Miami Heat center Hassan Whiteside (hip) was able to participate in shootaround and is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Whiteside played well on Wednesday and looked fine despite dealing with a left hip pointer issue. Fantasy owners shouldn't have anything to worry about on Friday.

Frank Ntilikina is Expected to Play on Thursday

New York Knicks guard Frank Ntilikina is expected to rejoin the rotation for Thursday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks, according to head coach David Fizdale. Ntilikina did not play on Christmas, but should resume his normal role on Thursday. However, his normal role is likely just minutes in the teens. He's not worth looking at […]

Tyson Chandler is Listed as Questionable

Los Angeles Lakers center Tyson Chandler (back) is being listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Chandler played through his back issue on Christmas, but only saw 16 minutes on the floor. JaVale McGee (illness) is most likely sitting out again, so Ivica Zubac continues to benefit from injuries. Zubac is an […]

Otto Porter Continues to Sit Out

Washington Wizards forward Otto Porter (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Chicago Bulls. It will be the ninth game in a row that Porter has missed due to a knee issue. Jeff Green will continue to draw starts in his place while Trevor Ariza is forced into playing heavy minutes.

Tristan Thompson Practices on Thursday

Cleveland Cavaliers center Tristan Thompson (foot) returned to practice on Thursday and has a small chance of playing on Friday against the Miami Heat. He's been out roughly two weeks, but was given a two to four week timetable. Thompson was playing fantastic before the injury, so he needs to be owned in all leagues. […]

David Nwaba, Rodney Hood Ruled Out Friday

Cleveland Cavaliers guards David Nwaba (ankle) and Rodney Hood (Achilles) have been ruled out for Friday's game against the Miami Heat. It's unclear how long Nwaba is going to be sidelined, so he belongs on the waiver wire in all leagues. Hood will miss his third straight game and the Cavs are going to continue […]

Kyle Lowry is Sitting Out on Friday

Toronto Raptors guard Kyle Lowry (back) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Orlando Magic. Lowry has now missed five of the last six games. He also missed Thursday's practice, so it's unclear when Lowry is going to be able to take the court. Fred Vanvleet has been solid during his starts this […]

Alex Len Won't Play Against Minnesota

Atlanta Hawks center Alex Len (back) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Len will miss his second game in a row due to a back issue. Dewayne Dedmon will see increased playing time without Len on the floor. Dedmon was solid last game and is worth a look in DFS […]

Allen Crabbe Ruled Out for Friday

Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Allen Crabbe (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. He was able to fully practice on Thursday, but Crabbe isn't ready for game action yet. Rodions Kurucs has been great as a fill-in and should steal away minutes from Crabbe when he returns.

James Harden Expected to Play Thursday

Houston Rockets guard James Harden (calf) is expected to play in Thursday's game against the Boston Celtics. Harden suffered a left calf contusion during the Christmas Day game, but appears to be fine. He should continue to see heavy usage with Chris Paul (hamstring) sidelined. Fantasy owners should check back before tip-off just to be […]

Tim Hardaway Jr. Misses Shootaround

New York Knicks guard/forward Tim Hardaway Jr. (illness) did not participate in shootaround and is a game-time decision for Thursday's game. Courtney Lee is expected to join the starting five if Hardaway is sidelined. Damyean Dotson should see more minutes coming his way as well. Fantasy owners will need to check back for an update.

JaVale McGee is Doubtful for Thursday

Los Angeles Lakers center JaVale McGee (illness) is not expected to play in Thursday's game against the Sacramento Kings, according to head coach Luke Walton. He's missed the last five games due to an illness and is likely going to sit out again. Ivica Zubac will continue to benefit if McGee is unable to suit […]

Josh Hart Will Start on Thursday

Los Angeles Lakers guard Josh Hart will join the starting five for Thursday's game against the Sacramento Kings. LeBron James (groin) will be sidelined for this contest and could be out multiple games. Both Hart and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope will see an increase in playing time on Thursday.

John Collins is Expected to Play on Wednesday

Atlanta Hawks forward John Collins (ankle) is expected to play in Wednesday's game against the Indiana Pacers. He missed Sunday's game, but was able to fully participate in shootaround. He could be forced to play heavy minutes with the Hawks banged up. Collins could be an interesting DFS option if he's able to suit up.

Serge Ibaka is Probable for Wednesday

Toronto Raptors forward/center Serge Ibaka (knee) is listed as probable for Wednesday's game against the Miami Heat. Ibaka has missed the last four games due to a knee issue, but is on track to play on Wednesday. OG Anunoby would return to the second unit and Greg Monroe would lose some minutes with Ibaka back […]
