Frank Mason III Could Join Starting Lineup

Sacramento Kings shooting guard Frank Mason III got the start at shooting guard during Monday's preseason contest.

Kyle Anderson Sits Out of Practice

Memphis Grizzlies forward Kyle Anderson (heel) sat out of Monday's practice, but reportedly did want to be out there.

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.

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.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Robert Woods continues to be a solid fantasy option every week since his Week 1 dud.

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.
