Darren Waller Questionable To Return Versus Philly

New York Giants tight end Darren Waller (stinger) is questionable to return to Sunday's meeting with the Eagles. The Giants are up big in this one, and with New York not heading to the postseason, Waller's day is likely over. If that's the case, he'll finish with two catches for 27 yards. Of course, fantasy […]

Stephon Gilmore Questionable To Return In Week 18

Dallas Cowboys cornerback Stephon Gilmore (shoulder) is questionable to return to Sunday's matchup with the Commanders. The veteran exited for the blue medical tent while holding his right arm.

Marcus Mariota Takes Over For Jalen Hurts

Philadelphia Eagles quarterback Marcus Mariota took over for Jalen Hurts (finger) in Sunday's AFC East clash with the Giants. New York is up big currently, so Hurts, who suffered a gruesome finger injury, isn't expected to return for the rest of the contest. If that's the case, he'll finish with 55 yards and a pick […]

Sam LaPorta Diagnosed With A Hyperextended Knee

Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta (knee) didn't return to Sunday's NFC North matchup with the Minnesota Vikings. The rookie had played well before being carted off, catching five of seven targets for 29 yards and a touchdown. Head coach Dan Campbell indicated that LaPorta's injury wasn't as severe as initially believed. Fortunately, Campbell was […]

Noah Fant Won't Be Back On Sunday

Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant (hand) won't return to Sunday's meeting with the Arizona Cardinals. The 26-year-old suffered a hand injury in the first half, so he'll finish without a catch. At any rate, Fant hasn't been a routine fantasy performer all year, and Week 18 may cap off another underwhelming season. But if […]

Arthur Smith Might Not Be Back Next Season

According to NFL insider Jordan Schultz, there is a growing belief that Falcons head coach Arthur Smith won't be back next season. Owner Arthur Blank hasn't been thrilled with the team's performance throughout the 2023-24 campaign, so sources believe both parties could go their separate ways. Atlanta began the year by winning its first two […]

Sam LaPorta May Have Avoided Serious Injury

Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta (knee) didn't return to Sunday's NFC North showdown with the Vikings after getting carted off because of a knee injury.

Zach LaVine Probable Versus Charlotte

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (foot) is expected to play on Monday against Charlotte. The 28-year-old had been sidelined for over a month because of a foot issue. But he returned on Friday versus the Hornets, the first of a back-to-back between the clubs, and finished with 15 points, five rebounds, and four assists. It […]

Jimmy Butler Out Again On Monday Night

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (toe) remains out on Monday against the Houston Rockets. Fantasy managers didn't expect Butler to be out this long, although it's anyone's guess when he'll be back in the lineup. At any rate, without him, Bam Adebayo and Tyler Herro will remain the top offensive options versus Houston. But there's […]

Franz Wagner Out Again On Sunday

Orlando Magic forward Franz Wagner (ankle) is out again for Sunday's game against Atlanta. The 22-year-old tweaked his ankle in Wednesday's double-overtime meeting with the Sacramento Kings and didn't play on Friday versus Denver. Chuma Okeke got the start in his place, finishing with seven rebounds, three points, one steal, and one block. Of course, […]

Goga Bitadze Questionable Versus Atlanta

Orlando Magic center Goga Bitadze (illness) remains questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. The big man has been under the weather, and he missed Friday's meeting with the Denver Nuggets. Wendell Carter Jr. (knee) was also unavailable, so Moritz Wagner moved into the starting lineup. He played well, amassing 19 points, 11 […]

Shaedon Sharpe Won't Have A Minutes Cap On Sunday

Portland Trail Blazers guard Shaedon Sharpe will see a full workload in Sunday's matchup with the Brooklyn Nets. The 20-year-old is averaging 16.3 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 3.0 assists this season, a significant improvement from the 2022-23 campaign, his rookie season. But he battled a groin injury at the end of December, keeping him off […]

Anfernee Simons To Log Full Workload Against Brooklyn

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons won't face a minutes cap in Sunday's meeting with the Brooklyn Nets. The 24-year-old missed three games because of an illness but returned for the January 3 matchup with the Dallas Mavericks, the first of consecutive games between the teams. However, he was limited to 27 minutes or fewer […]

NFL DFS: FanDuel Daily Fantasy Football Picks - Today's Top Lineups (Week 18)

It’s the final week of the 2023-24 campaign. Several clubs have already punched their ticket to the postseason, meaning some of the league’s most prominent fantasy performers won’t be on the field.

T.J. Watt Diagnosed With A Torn MCL

According to NFL Media's Ian Rapoport, Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker T.J. Watt (knee) suffered a torn MCL during Saturday's win over the Ravens. It's not good news for Pittsburgh, who still has a chance at earning a postseason berth. However, although he'll undergo further testing, the team may be without their top defensive option throughout the […]

Jaylen Waddle Not Expected To Play In Week 18

According to NFL Media's Tom Pelissero and Ian Rapoport, Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (ankle) is unlikely to play in Sunday night's encounter with the Buffalo Bills. The wideout has battled a high-ankle sprain since the Week 16 meeting with the Dallas Cowboys. He didn't suit up for the blowout loss to the Baltimore […]

Raheem Mostert Unlikely To Face The Bills

According to NFL Media's Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero, Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert (knee, ankle) is unlikely to play in Sunday's AFC East meeting with the Bills. The 31-year-old didn't practice on Wednesday or Thursday before logging a limited session on Friday, so it appeared there was a chance he'd be back. Unfortunately, […]

Eric Gordon May Miss Another Game

Phoenix Suns guard Eric Gordon (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game versus the Grizzlies. The veteran has played relatively well during the 2023-24 campaign, averaging 13.6 points and shooting 40.9% from behind the arc. Unfortunately, he missed Friday's win over Miami because of a sore right knee. Nevertheless, there's a chance for Gordon to remain […]

Kevin Durant Might Return Against Memphis

Phoenix Suns forward Kevin Durant (hamstring) is questionable ahead of Sunday's contest versus the Memphis Grizzlies. The veteran has stayed relatively healthy for most of the season. But he's missed the last three games because of a strained hamstring. That said, he is averaging some of the best numbers of his career this season, logging […]

Alec Burks Probable Against The Defending Champs

Detroit Pistons guard Alec Burks (hamstring) is expected to play on Sunday versus the Denver Nuggets. Burks has slowed down since averaging 15 points per game in October. However, he scored at least 21 points or more in the previous two games leading up to Friday's loss to the Warriors, so there may be something […]

Richaun Holmes Not Expected To Play On Sunday

Dallas Mavericks center Richaun Holmes (personal) is doubtful ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Minnesota Timberwolves. The 30-year-old has missed the last two games, so it appears he's moving toward another absence. That said, Holmes has rarely seen the floor this season, averaging 3.8 rebounds and 3.4 points in 10.6 minutes per contest. He could […]

Grant Williams May Not Play On Sunday

Dallas Mavericks forward Grant Williams (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game versus the Timberwolves. He's dealing with a sprained right ankle, keeping him out of the lineup in Friday's win over the Portland Trail Blazers. Luka Doncic (ankle) didn't play in that game, either, so Williams could have gotten more involved offensively. At any rate, […]

Dereck Lively II Doubtful On Sunday

Dallas Mavericks center Dereck Lively II (ankle) isn't expected to suit up for Sunday's game versus the Minnesota Timberwolves. The rookie has played well this season, averaging 8.7 points, 7.6 rebounds, and 1.4 blocks in 29 appearances. However, he's been battling a sprained ankle, an injury he sustained versus the Trail Blazers on Wednesday evening. […]

Luka Doncic Questionable Versus Minnesota

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the visiting Timberwolves. He didn't suit up on Friday night versus Portland because of right ankle swelling. As a result, Kyrie Irving led the way offensively, finishing with a game-high 24 points, adding nine rebounds, five assists, two steals, and two blocks. Additionally, […]

Rui Hachimura Still Out On Sunday

Los Angeles Lakers forward Rui Hachimura (calf) remains out on Sunday against the Clippers. He's dealing with a calf strain, an injury he picked up during the New Year's Eve meeting with the New Orleans Pelicans. The Lakers have struggled since winning the inaugural NBA Cup, and it hasn't helped the team has been without […]

Draymond Green Reinstated After 12-Game Absence

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green (suspension) was reinstated by the league on Saturday. The veteran sat out 12 games, during which he underwent counseling and routine "progress meetings" with the team and league representatives. ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reported it will take him "approximately a week to ramp up," so fantasy managers may not see […]

Joel Embiid Now Questionable On Saturday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) is now listed as questionable ahead of Saturday's matchup with the Utah Jazz. The reigning MVP injured his knee in Saturday's loss to the New York Knicks, so it was surprising when he began the day without an injury designation. Head coach Nick Nurse indicated Embiid is a game-time […]

Tobias Harris Sidelined Versus Utah

Philadelphia 76ers forward Tobias Harris (ankle) won't play on Saturday versus the Utah Jazz. He suffered a left ankle injury in Friday's loss to the Knicks and finished with a horrendous five points in 24 minutes.
