Zion Williamson Will Play On Saturday Evening

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (illness) will play on Saturday night against the Houston Rockets. Williamson was listed as questionable because of a non-COVID-related illness, but he's good to go. The oft-injured 23-year-old has averaged a career-low 22 points throughout the 2023-24 campaign. However, he's a must-start for fantasy purposes.

Karl-Anthony Towns Ruled Out Versus Sacramento

Minnesota Timberwolves forward/center Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) won't play on Saturday in Sacramento. The 28-year-old logged 33 minutes on Thursday versus the Los Angeles Lakers, finishing with 21 points. Unfortunately, he injured his left knee and left the court in obvious pain. Fortunately, it doesn't appear the injury is anything serious, although KAT could miss a […]

Joel Embiid Misses Practice On Saturday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (ankle) didn't practice on Saturday. The reigning MVP tweaked his right ankle during Friday's win over the Toronto Raptors, although he still finished with 31 points, 10 rebounds, nine assists, four blocks, and two steals. Fantasy managers should consider him questionable for Christmas versus the Miami Heat. But if Embiid […]

Luke Kornet Remains Out On Saturday

Boston Celtics center Luke Kornet (adductor) is out again for Saturday's matchup versus the Los Angeles Clippers. The 28-year-old missed his previous five games with a left adductor strain. However, he's averaged just 4.4 points and 3.3 rebounds this season, meaning his absence wouldn't have meant much under normal circumstances. But with Kristaps Porzingis (ankle) […]

Jayson Tatum Cleared For Action Versus The Clippers

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (ankle) will play in Saturday's matchup with the Los Angeles Clippers. He tweaked his ankle in Tuesday's overtime encounter with the Golden State Warriors, although he finished the game, logging 41 minutes. But as expected, he sat out on Wednesday in Sacramento. However, it was likely a precautionary move. The […]

Kawhi Leonard Out Again On Saturday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (hip) won't play in Saturday's meeting with the Boston Celtics. The 32-year-old has remained relatively healthy all season, which is good news for fantasy managers. Unfortunately, he's battling a hip contusion, so he'll miss a second straight contest. Nonetheless, Amir Coffey will likely continue to fill the void. Coffey […]

Jayson Tatum Expected To Play On Saturday

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (ankle) is expected to suit up for Saturday's matinee with the Los Angeles Clippers.

However, it was likely a […]

Sam Howell - Week 16 Fantasy Football Start 'Em, Sit 'Em Picks

BALLER MOVE: Bench in all fantasy fotmats POSITIONAL VALUE: Low-end, risky fantasy signal-caller ANALYSIS: Howell was a breakout candidate entering the 2023-24 campaign. He had the tools necessary to be successful, specifically wide receivers Terry McLaurin, a Pro Bowler in 2022, up-and-comer Jahan Dotson, and speedster Curtis Samuel. Brian Robinson Jr. and Antonio Gibson also […]

BALLER MOVE: Start in all fantasy formats POSITIONAL VALUE: Consistent, high-ceiling producer ANALYSIS: LaPorta has been one of the National Football League's most impressive rookies.

Jayson Tatum Questionable Versus The Clippers

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (ankle) is questionable ahead of Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. He briefly exited Tuesday's matchup with the Warriors because of a sprained ankle. However, although he returned and finished the game with 15 points, eight boards, and seven assists in 41 minutes, he didn't suit up versus the […]

Kristaps Porzingis Ruled Out On Saturday

Boston Celtics center Kristaps Porzingis (ankle) won't play on Saturday afternoon versus the Los Angeles Clippers. He's battled a calf issue for months. However, the veteran tweaked his left ankle in Wednesday's meeting with the Sacramento Kings, so now he's dealing with another ailment. At this point, Porzingis may miss more time moving ahead, especially […]

Tyler Boyd Hard To Trust In Week 16

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd hasn't had a memorable year. The veteran has just 59 receptions for 575 yards. Even worse, he's scored only twice. By now, most fantasy managers haven't included Boyd in the starting lineup. While his stock is a bit higher heading into the Week 16 meeting with the Steelers with […]

Tee Higgins Hoping For Another Big Performance

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tee Higgins hasn't had a productive 2023-24 campaign. He's dealt with a few injuries. Additionally, the 24-year-old found the end zone just twice ahead of the meeting with the Vikings. Most fantasy managers had lost hope, so he wasn't included in many starting lineups in Week 15. However, he caught four […]

Chase Brown Ready To Go Versus Pittsburgh

Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown (chest) appeared on the injury report during the week. He practiced in a limited capacity on Tuesday. However, he logged full sessions on Wednesday and Thursday, so he's good to go for the Week 16 AFC North matchup with the Pittsburgh Steelers. The rookie started to get attention from […]

Joe Mixon A Must-Start Versus Pittsburgh

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon has had an impressive 2023-24 campaign. Although the former Sooner hasn't surpassed the 100-yard mark on the ground, that hasn't mattered, considering he's scored a touchdown in seven of his previous eight appearances. With the Bengals coming off an overtime win over the Minnesota Vikings in Week 15, the […]

Jake Browning A Viable Option In Week 16

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Jake Browning (forearm) was on the injury report ahead of Saturday's AFC North battle with Pittsburgh. However, he logged full sessions, so his availability was never in question. The signal-caller got off to a slow start in the Week 15 meeting with the Vikings. But he got his act together late in […]

FanDuel NFL DFS Week 16 Picks: Top Daily Fantasy Lineup Plays Include Baker Mayfield, Derrick Henry, Mike Evans, Amon-Ra St. Brown, More

Week 16 began with a Thursday night meeting between the Saints and Rams. Ultimately, Los Angeles picked up the victory, thanks mainly to impressive performances from Kyren Williams, Puka Nacua, and Demarcus Robinson. With the win, the Rams remained in the Wild Card conversation, while the Saints need to finish the year strong to have […]

Sam Howell Will Remain Starting Quarterback

According to Washington Commanders head coach Ron Rivera, quarterback Sam Howell will remain the team's starter. The 23-year-old finished the Week 15 loss to the Rams by throwing for 102 yards, one touchdown, and one pick while completing a hideous 42.3% of his attempts. As a result, Howell was benched in the fourth quarter, with […]

Jonathan Williams Suffers Concussion On Sunday

Washington Commanders running back Jonathan Williams (head) didn't return to Sunday's matchup with the Los Angeles Rams. With Brian Robinson Jr. (hamstring) unavailable, Williams was in the lineup for Week 15. However, he was ruled out with a concussion, ending his day with one carry for negative yardage. At any rate, Williams was on the […]

Sam Howell Struggles In Week 15, Benched In The Fourth Quarter

Washington Commanders quarterback Sam Howell struggled in Sunday's loss to the Rams. The signal-caller went 11-for-26 passing for 102 yards, one touchdown, and one interception. He added three carries for 22 yards. However, Howell was benched late in the game, opening the door for Jacoby Brissett to enter and finish with two passing touchdowns. There […]

Jamal Agnew Active On Sunday Night

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Jamal Agnew (ribs/shoulder) will play on Sunday night against the Ravens. The wideout hasn't been available since suffering rib and shoulder injuries in the Week 10 meeting with the San Francisco 49ers. The 28-year-old has only nine catches for 90 yards in eight games this season, so his presence won't directly […]

Tucker Kraft Finds The End Zone In Week 15

Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft caught four of six targets for 57 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Christian Watson (hamstring) and AJ Dillon (thumb) didn't play, and Jayden Reed (toe) exited during the contest. As a result, Kraft benefitted, scoring his second touchdown in the last […]

Marquise Brown Questionable To Return In Week 15

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marquise Brown (heel) is questionable to return to Sunday's showdown with the 49ers. He was questionable heading into this one because of a heel issue, so there's a good chance he won't be back, especially with San Francisco's decisive lead in the fourth quarter. If Brown is officially ruled out, he'll […]

Romeo Doubs Has Three Grabs In Week 15

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Romeo Doubs finished Sunday's game against the Bucs with three catches for 30 yards. Christian Watson (hamstring) didn't suit up for this one, and Jayden Reed (toe) was injured during the contest. However, Doubs still couldn't get anything going. At any rate, the 23-year-old has played well enough for fantasy […]

Geoff Swaim Done For Week 15

Arizona Cardinals tight end Geoff Swaim (calf) won't return to Sunday's meeting with the 49ers. He suffered a calf injury, ending his day with one catch for 26 yards. That said, it's unlikely many fantasy managers had him in the lineup, considering Trey McBride is the primary tight end on the depth chart.

Dontayvion Wicks Leads Team In Receiving On Sunday

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Dontayvion Wicks had a team-high six catches for 97 yards in Sunday's loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The wideout didn't find the end zone. However, he still led the way on the receiving end for the Packers, which is impressive, considering he entered the contest carrying a questionable tag […]

Aaron Jones Struggles In Return From Two-Game Absence

Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones had 53 yards off 13 carries in Sunday's loss to Tampa Bay. He added four catches for 16 yards. The veteran returned from a two-game absence due to a knee injury. AJ Dillon (thumb) didn't suit up for this one, although Jones couldn't do much with his enhanced […]

Jordan Love Throws Two Touchdowns In Week 15

Green Bay Packers quarterback Jordan Love threw for 284 yards and two touchdowns off an accurate 29-for-39 passing in Sunday's matchup with the Buccaneers. Unfortunately, despite Love's best efforts, the Packers lost their second straight game, although Baker Mayfield, who had a 381-yard, four-touchdown performance, can take most of the credit. At any rate, Love […]

Zack Martin Questionable To Return On Sunday

Dallas Cowboys offensive guard Zack Martin (quadriceps) is questionable to return on Sunday against the Bills. The veteran was able to walk to the sideline on his own, which is a good sign. However, it wouldn't be an ideal scenario for Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb, and the rest of the Cowboys offense if Martin doesn't […]

Treylon Burks Has Three Catches On Sunday

Tennessee Titans wide receiver Treylon Burks had only three catches in Sunday's loss to the Texans. However, it was still enough to give him a team-high 62 receiving yards. Unfortunately, the Titans offense had a rough day, with Derrick Henry gaining only nine yards off 16 touches. That said, Burks entered the 2023-24 campaign with […]
