Jusuf Nurkic Suspended Three Games

Phoenix Suns center Jusuf Nurkic will miss the next three games due to suspension, the league announced on Saturday. The veteran was involved in a physical altercation with Mavericks forwards Naji Marshall and P.J. Washington on Friday night, resulting in all three getting ejected. The Suns have been without Devin Booker (groin), so losing another […]

Onyeka Okongwu Still Out On Saturday

Atlanta Hawks forward Onyeka Okongwu (knee) remains out for Saturday's meeting with the Miami Heat. He'll now miss his fifth consecutive contest because of left knee inflammation, so it's anyone's guess when he will be healthy enough to return. With Bogdan Bogdanovic (leg) and Dyson Daniels (illness) also sidelined, the Hawks will need to go […]

Dyson Daniels Sick On Saturday

Atlanta Hawks guard Dyson Daniels (illness) won't play on Saturday against the Heat. The 21-year-old is having the best season of his career, averaging 13.0 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 3.1 steals. Hopefully, the illness he's dealing with won't keep him off the floor moving ahead. However, with Onyeka Okongwu (knee) and Bogdan Bogdanovic (leg) also […]

Bogdan Bogdanovic Ruled Out Versus Miami

Atlanta Hawks guard Bogdan Bogdanovic (leg) won't play in Saturday's game against the Miami Heat. The veteran has already missed 17 games this season, including the Hawks' previous two contests because of left lower leg contusion. Not only has he been plagued by various injuries this season, he's also averaging a career-low 11.3 points. But […]

Trae Young Will Play On Saturday

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (heel) will play on Saturday versus Miami. Young has been plagued by various ailments during the season. However, he's only missed two games. The 26-year-old is averaging 22.0 points during the 2024-25 campaign, the second-worst mark of his career. Fortunately, he has averaged a career-high 12.1 assists. As such, Young […]

Drake Maye Questionable To Return On Saturday

New England Patriots quarterback Drake Maye (head) is questionable to return to Saturday's clash with the Los Angeles Chargers. The signal-caller didn't last long before taking a hard shot, completing his only pass attempt for one yard. With the Patriots not going anywhere near the postseason, it may not make sense for Maye to return, […]

Week 17 FanDuel NFL DFS Picks - Main Slate (2024): Jayden Daniels, Brock Bowers, Bucky Irving, Brian Thomas Jr.

With three games already in the books, three more contests will be played on Saturday in Week 17. As is the norm at this point of the season, more than a few players won’t be available for one reason or another. However, their absences will at least provide some valuable opportunities for DFS participants.   […]

Aidan O'Connell Not A Good Choice For Fantasy Lineups In Week 17

Las Vegas Raiders quarterback Aidan O'Connell led his team to their third win of the 2024-25 campaign by defeating the Jaguars in Week 16. However, it still wasn't the best fantasy showing, with the 26-year-old throwing for 257 yards while not finding any of his receivers in the end zone. With the Saints on tap […]

Daniel Bellinger Still Not Worth Starting Versus The Colts

New York Giants tight end Daniel Bellinger hasn't had a great year. He's appeared in 15 games, catching only 12 passes for 116 yards. The 24-year-old also hasn't found the end zone since his rookie campaign. With Malik Nabers (toe) questionable for Sunday's game against the Colts, there's a good could be a few extra […]

Wan'Dale Robinson Could See More Action In Week 17

New York Giants wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson has already had the best season of his career. He's appeared in 15 games, catching 78 passes for 585 yards and two touchdowns. While the wideout has improved, he still hasn't been a productive fantasy option. However, with Malik Nabers (toe) questionable, Robinson may be in line for […]

Darius Slayton May Be Worth Starting In Week 17

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton has had a down year. In 14 appearances, he has 38 catches for 541 yards and one touchdown. However, with Malik Nabers (toe) questionable for Sunday's meeting with the Colts, there's a good chance Slayton could get more involved. Nabers missed two games this season back in October. […]

Devin Singletary Not A Safe Bet Versus The Colts

New York Giants running back Devin Singletary began the year as the team's No. 1 option out of the backfield. However, as the season progressed, he found himself behind Tyrone Tracy Jr. (ankle). With Tracy moving in the right direction, at least it seems, for Sunday's matchup with the Colts, there may not be enough […]

Tim Patrick Not An Ideal Fantasy Option In Week 17

Detroit Lions wide receiver Tim Patrick spent his entire career in Denver before injuries led him to his current team. While he was more productive with the Broncos, he has still played better than expected with the Lions. The 31-year-old has appeared in 14 games during the 2024-25 campaign, totaling 31 catches for 379 yards. […]

Dillon Brooks Sidelined Again On Friday Night

Houston Rockets forward Dillon Brooks (ankle) won't play in Friday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves, marking his third-consecutive absence. The 28-year-old has had a decent season, averaging 13.6 points. However, his abilities on the defensive end are what Houston have missed the most. With Tari Eason (leg) questionable, the team could look to Cam Whitmore […]

Kristaps Porzingis Out Versus Indiana

Boston Celtics center Kristaps Porzingis (ankle) won't suit up on Friday versus the Pacers. The veteran tweaked his ankle in the Christmas Day loss to the 76ers. He stayed in the game for a while after it happened, so there's a good chance the team is being overly cautious. In the meantime, Al Horford will […]

Jrue Holiday Out Against The Pacers

Boston Celtics guard Jrue Holiday (shoulder) will remain out on Friday against the Pacers. The 34-year-old is battling right shoulder impingement, although it's unknown how severe it is. With Kristaps Porzingis (ankle) also sidelined versus Indiana, Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, and Derrick White could each receive a few more scoring opportunities. Sam Hauser, averaging 16.5 […]

Stephen Curry Resting On Friday

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (rest) won't play against the Clippers on Friday. The veteran is coming off a stellar Christmas Day performance against LeBron James and the Lakers, finishing with a game-high 38 points while shooting 8-for-15 from behind the arc. He'll likely be back on the floor on Saturday versus the Phoenix […]

Jrue Holiday Could Miss Another Game

Boston Celtics guard Jrue Holiday (shoulder) is questionable for Friday's game against the Pacers. The veteran has a right shoulder injury, which kept him off the floor for the Christmas Day loss to the 76ers. Al Horford moved into the starting lineup, finishing with 17 points and shooting 5-for-10 from behind the arc. With Kristaps […]

Kristaps Porzingis Uncertain For Friday Night

Boston Celtics center Kristaps Porzingis (ankle) is considered questionable for Friday's meeting with the Indiana Pacers. The veteran tweaked his ankle in the Christmas Day loss to the Philadelphia 76ers, ending his day after only 13 minutes of work. As a result, Luke Kornet got more action than normal and finished with six points and […]

Domantas Sabonis Under The Weather On Thursday

Sacramento Kings center Domantas Sabonis (illness) won't play on Thursday against the Pistons. As usual, the 28-year-old has had a quality season, averaging a career-high 21.1 points with 13.5 rebounds and 6.0 assists. His next chance to get back on the floor will be on Saturday against the Los Angeles Lakers. As far as Thursday […]

Andrei Iosivas May Be Forced To Step Up Versus Denver

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Andrei Iosivas is having the best season of his young career. In 15 games, the 25-year-old has 31 catches for 408 yards. He also has six touchdowns, with one occurring in the Week 16 victory over the Cleveland Browns. However, Iosivas has been far from consistent, so he hasn't seen much […]

Mike Gesicki May Need To Be More Involved On Saturday

Cincinnati Bengals tight end Mike Gesicki had only two catches for 14 yards in the Week 16 win over the Browns. That type of production has been the norm for the 29-year-old for most of the 2024-25 campaign. However, Tee Higgins (ankle, knee) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Broncos, meaning Gesicki and others […]

Ja'Marr Chase Could See More Work On Saturday

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase is the best wideout in the National Football League, catching 108 passes for 1,510 yards and 16 touchdowns this season. With the Bengals hoping to secure a spot in the postseason, Cincinnati needs a victory over Denver on Saturday. Without question, the Broncos defense could be a challenge for […]

Chase Brown Ready To Go For Week 17

Cincinnati Bengals running back Chase Brown didn't score in the Week 16 win over the Cleveland Browns. However, he's still had a quality year, amassing 923 yards off 209 carries and catching 50 passes for 336 yards. The 24-year-old has also found the end zone 11 times. With the Bengals still looking for a postseason […]

Joe Burrow Off The Injury Report For Week 17

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow (wrist, knee) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice. However, he doesn't carry an injury designation heading into the Saturday's showdown with Denver. With the Bengals still barely alive for a postseason spot, it would take a lot to keep Burrow off the field for the pivotal game against the […]

Fantasy Football Injury Reports for Tight Ends: Week 17 - Updates for Juwan Johnson, Tucker Kraft, David Njoku, Cade Otton

Happy holidays, everyone. Week 17 began with two Christmas Day games, with the Chiefs and Ravens both picking up easy wins. With contests scheduled for Thursday, Saturday, and Sunday, it’s a good time to check on the health of some of the tight ends around the National Football League.   Being up-to-date on NFL injury […]

Luka Doncic To Miss An "Extended Period Of Time"

According to ESPN's Shams Charania, Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (calf) is likely "to miss an extended period of time." The 25-year-old was listed on the injury report because of a heel injury heading into the Christmas Day loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves but was able to suit up. Unfortunately, he lasted only 16 minutes […]

Kenyon Martin Jr. Out At Least Two Weeks

Philadelphia 76ers forward Kenyon Martin Jr. (foot) suffered a stress reaction in his left foot, an MRI revealed on Tuesday. Unfortunately, he will miss at least two weeks before he's re-evaluated. KJ is having his best season in years, averaging 6.4 points. While that hasn't made Martin a practical fantasy asset in redraft formats, his […]

Andre Drummond May Miss Wednesday's Game

Philadelphia 76ers center Andre Drummond (toe) is questionable for Wednesday's encounter with the Boston Celtics. The veteran has had a decent season. However, he was more impactful for fantasy managers when he filled in for Joel Embiid (face) this season, averaging 8.1 points, 10.1 rebounds, and 1.6 steals in 14 starts. But with Embiid available, […]

Joel Embiid Available On Christmas Day

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (face) is listed as available for Wednesday's Christmas matchup with the Celtics. He recently returned from his latest stint on the shelf caused by a sinus fracture. Fortunately, the multi-time All-Star is returning to form after suffering multiple injuries this season, amassing 31 points or more in two of the […]
