Jahlil Okafor Remains Questionable on Thursday

New Orleans Pelicans center Jahlil Okafor (ankle) is questionable for Thursday's preseason contest against the Raptors. Okafor looked fairly decent this preseason, but hopefully this ankle injury doesn't linger. Regardless, Anthony Davis and Julius Randle are going to see most of the playing time when healthy. It's difficult to see Okafor having basically any fantasy […]

Robert Woods Should Continue to Succeed

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Robert Woods could be a phenomenal WR1 option if Brandin Cooks (concussion) and Cooper Kupp (concussion) don't play in Week 6. However, it sounds like both players are getting close to returning. Although, Woods has been solid just about every week, so he still has value even if Cooks and […]

Cooper Kupp Might Struggle Against Denver

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp (concussion) is questionable for Week 6 after suffering a concussion last week. Both Kupp and Brandin Cooks (concussion) practiced on Thursday, so they should be good to go if they can get through Friday without any setbacks. The Broncos defense has not allowed much production from the slot […]

Brandin Cooks Has Great Matchup in Week 6

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Brandin Cooks (concussion) has an excellent matchup lined up for him in Week 6. However, there is still a chance that Cooks is unable to play in this one after suffering a concussion last week. Cooks was able to practice on Thursday, so if he'll be good to go if […]

Todd Gurley is Elite RB1 in Week 6

Los Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley has scored nine touchdowns for the Rams this season and is showing no signs of slowing down. Gurley was able to score three touchdowns on the ground last week. He's been basically unstoppable and should have an excellent game against the Broncos in Week 6. Denver has allowed […]

Jared Goff Looks To Get Back on Track

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff did not perform as expected in Week 5, but it was not all his fault. Goff lost two of his best receivers to concussions last week. Goff was still able to throw for over 300 yards, but did throw two interceptions as well. This week he'll face off against […]

Travis Kelce is Elite Choice for Week 6

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has finished with at least 100 receiving yards or more in three of the last four games. Kelce was able to score a touchdown in the one contest where he didn't hit 100 yards during that span. He'll face a Patriots defense that has allowed four touchdowns to […]

Sammy Watkins Expected to Be Ready for Week 6

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins (hamstring) is practicing in full for Week 6. Watkins was able to play through a questionable tag last week, so he should be fine for this contest. Watkins has been reliable this season when he's been healthy. He goes up against a Patriots secondary that has allowed the […]

Tyreek Hill is Reliable WR1 Against Pats

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill has failed to score or go over 61 receiving yards during the last three games. However, Hill did have to face some difficult pass defenses, but has an easier matchup against the Patriots in Week 6. The Pats defense has allowed the sixth most receptions to opposing wide […]

Kareem Hunt's TD Streak Could Be in Jeopardy

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt brings in a four-game touchdown streak into Week 6. Hunt has rushed for four touchdowns over the last three games, and has scored at least one TD over the last four contests. He'll face a Patriots defense that is allowing 4.4 yards per carry. However, the Pats have […]

Patrick Mahomes Has Easier Week 6 Matchup

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes failed to throw a touchdown for the first time this season during the Week 5 victory over Jacksonville. Mahomes was picked off twice, but still finished the game with over 300 passing yards. He heads into a matchup with the Patriots that have allowed 11 passing touchdowns this season. […]

Goran Dragic is Sitting Out on Wednesday

Miami Heat point guard Goran Dragic (knee) will sit out of Wednesday's preseason game against the New Orleans Pelicans. He was listed as questionable on Tuesday, but the Heat have decided to hold him out for this one. Dragic has a bunch of minor injuries that are beginning to pile up on him. The good […]

Lonzo Ball Expected to Play 20 Minutes on Wednesday

Los Angeles Lakers point guard Lonzo Ball (knee) is targeting playing 20 minutes in Wednesday's preseason game against the Warriors. He has been a full participant in practice this week. He said his knee is feeling fine, so he'll make his preseason debut on Wednesday. Rajon Rondo and Ball are expected to fight for playing […]

Harrison Barnes Could Miss Season Opener

Dallas Mavericks forward Harrison Barnes (hamstring) could miss the season opener while he continues nursing a hamstring issue. Barnes will need to get significant practice in this week if he wants to be ready by the opener, according to head coach Rick Carlisle. There have been no updates about Barnes, so it's safe to assume […]

DeMarre Carroll is Sitting Out on Wednesday

Brooklyn Nets forward DeMarre Carroll (rest) is sitting out of Wednesday's preseason game. Ed Davis will join him on the sidelines, but it appears both players are fine. Head coach Kenny Atkinson is just giving them rest. Kenneth Faried will see some playing time and Rodions Kurucs will get more minutes as well on Wednesday.

Clint Capela, Eric Gordon Expected to Play Friday

Houston Rockets center Clint Capela (hand) and shooting guard Eric Gordon (foot) are expected to play in Friday's preseason finale. Both players missed Tuesday's preseason contest due to minor injuries. Capela and Gordon should be ready for the season opener, assuming they have no setbacks. Capela is worth grabbing early in most leagues, while Gordon […]

Stanley Johnson Will Start on Wednesday

Detroit Pistons forward Stanley Johnson (toe) will start in Wednesday's preseason game against the Washington Wizards. Johnson sat out of Monday's contest due to a toe issue. However, the issue was never believed to be serious and Johnson was back on the practice court on Tuesday. Johnson will be taking the court alongside Reggie Jackson, […]

Markieff Morris is Questionable for Wednesday

Washington Wizards forward Markieff Morris (abdominal) is questionable for Wednesday's preseason game against the Pistons. Morris sat out on Monday, but it wouldn't be surprising to see him out again. The Wizards want to be cautious and make sure Morris is 100 percent for the season opener. The injury doesn't seem serious, so fantasy owners […]

Kyrie Irving, Gordon Hayward Participate in Practice

Boston Celtics point guard Kyrie Irving (ribs) and forward Gordon Hayward (back) were full participants in practice on Wednesday. Both players were also able to get in some practice on Tuesday. It sounds like neither player is dealing with anything serious. It will be interesting to see how Hayward responds after missing basically all of […]

Jahlil Okafor is Questionable for Wednesday

New Orleans Pelicans center Jahlil Okafor (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's preseason game. The Pelicans are playing the front end of a back-to-back set, so it would make sense for Okafor to sit this one out. That would give him another night to rest his ankle and get out there on Thursday. There is a […]

Terrence Ross Will Remain Out on Wednesday

Orlando Magic guard/forward Terrence Ross (foot) will remain on the sidelines for Wednesday's preseason game. Ross has played in just one preseason game, but the Magic are hopeful that he can get back on the court for Friday's contest. Although, the Magic are going to be cautious with Ross, so if he's not 100 percent […]

Derrick White Will Start on Wednesday

San Antonio Spurs point guard Derrick White will draw the start at point guard against the Atlanta Hawks on Wednesday. Dejounte Murray (knee) is most likely done for the season after tearing his ACL. It does not appear the Spurs are looking to add any significant updates to their roster at the moment. The Spurs […]

Draymond Green Will Be Ready for Season Opener

Golden State Warriors forward/center Draymond Green (knee) should be ready for the season opener, according to head coach Steve Kerr. The Warriors are going to be cautious with Green, but feel he has enough time to recover before the season begins. Green hasn't practiced in a week, but his injury is considered minor. This injury […]

Jonathan Isaac Expected to Play on Wednesday

Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac (ankle) was a full participant at shootaround and is expected to play in the preseason game on Wednesday. Isaac was also able to practice on Tuesday, so it appears that he has recovered from his ankle injury. Isaac will likely have a minutes limit on Wednesday, but that's not too […]

Norman Powell is Not Playing on Wednesday

Toronto Raptors forward Norman Powell (thigh) will sit out against the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday. Powell is dealing with a right thigh contusion, but he's not expected to miss much time. He should be ready to go for Thursday's preseason contest, so the injury is not considered serious. Most fantasy owners will probably want to […]

Dwight Howard Could Miss Season Opener

Washington Wizards center Dwight Howard (buttocks) visited a specialist in New York and has a piriformis injury. However, the injury isn't considered serious, but Howard's status for the season opener is in question. Head coach Scott Brooks didn't see whether or not Howard would be ready by the opener. It could be too early to […]

Thaddeus Young Will Play on Wednesday

Indiana Pacers forward Thaddeus Young (foot) missed all of training camp and the beginning of the preseason. Young has been dealing with a foot issue, but will be out there on Wednesday against the Bulls. It sounds like Young is full healthy, but he won't be the best fantasy asset this season. He's expected to […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Resting on Tuesday

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (rest) will sit out of Tuesday's preseason game. The Bucks will also be without Khris Middleton, Eric Bledsoe, and Brook Lopez due to rest. The good news is that these are not injuries, so fantasy owners don't need to worry. It appears the Bucks are just being cautious and trying […]

Denzel Valentine Likely to Miss Entire Preseason

Chicago Bulls forward Denzel Valentine (ankle) isn't ready to practice yet due to a left ankle issue, according to head coach Fred Hoiberg. The Bulls have been cautious with Valentine, and the fact he's not on the practice court is not a promising sign. There is a good chance that Valentine misses all of the […]

Eric Gordon Won't Play on Tuesday

Houston Rockets shooting guard Eric Gordon (foot) is sitting out against the Shanghai Sharks on Tuesday. Gordon hurt himself during Sunday's contest and it appears he's not ready to play yet. Head coach Mike D'Antoni said Gordon could play if he needed to, but the Rockets are going to be cautious especially in the preseason. […]
