OKC Adding Isaiah Joe

Free-agent guard Isaiah Joe will sign a multi-year contract with OKC. Joe has spent his entire two-year career in Philly, where he averaged only 3.7 points and 1.0 rebounds in 96 games. While the 23-year-old has a great deal of potential, he's still far from being a day-to-day fantasy producer. However, Joe is someone to […]

OKC Exercises Option For Aleksej Pokusevski

Oklahoma City Thunder forward/center Aleksej Pokusevski had his fourth-year option picked up by the team on Saturday. Pokusevski, a first-round pick in 2020, has averaged 7.8 points, 5.0 rebounds, and 2.2 assists in the last two seasons. He's still a work in progress, especially on the shooting end from deep, so fantasy managers won't receive […]

Tre Mann Has Option Picked Up By OKC

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Tre Mann had his third-year option exercised by the team on Saturday. The No. 18 overall pick of the 2021 NBA Draft averaged 10.4 points in 60 games last season. However, as a starter, he averaged 14.4 points, 3.3 rebounds, 2.3 assists, and 1.0 steals in 26 games. Mann is expected […]

OKC Exercises Option On Josh Giddey

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Josh Giddey had his third-year option picked up by the team on Saturday. The No. 6 overall selection of the 2021 NBA Draft averaged 12.5 points, 7.8 boards, and 6.4 assists in 54 games. Unfortunately, his rookie campaign ended early due to a hip injury. Giddey is now healthy heading into […]

Evan Mobley Logs 17 Minutes In Loss To Orlando

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Evan Mobley finished with eight points during the loss to the Orlando Magic on Friday. The sophomore shot a rough 1-for-4 from the field. However, he added two rebounds, two assists, and a steal in 17 minutes. While it wasn't the most efficient showing from Mobley, fantasy managers were just happy to […]

Isaac Okoro Scores 17 Points On Friday Night

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Isaac Okoro finished with 17 points during the preseason loss to Orlando on Friday. He shot an efficient 6-for-7 from the field while adding three rebounds, one assist, one rebound, and one block. Okoro was drafted in the first round of the 2020 NBA Draft. In his two seasons with the Cavs, […]

Andrew Wiggins Receives Contract Extension

Golden State Warriors forward Andrew Wiggins has agreed to a four-year, $109 million contract. Wiggins was traded from Minnesota to the Dubs during the 2019-20 season. Since then, he's averaged 18.0 points, 4.7 rebounds, 2.4 assists, and 1.0 steals while shooting 38.4% from deep in 156 games. He also earned his first All-Star bid last […]

Warriors, Jordan Poole Agreed On Extension

Golden State Warriors guard Jordan Poole has agreed to a four-year, $140 million contract extension. The 23-year-old had a breakout year in 2022-23, finishing with a career-high 18.5 points, 4.0 assists, and 3.4 rebounds in 76 games. Poole will continue to play a pivotal role from the bench this season, although he'll also make some […]

Russell Westbrook Injures Hamstring On Friday Night

Los Angeles Lakers guard Russell Westbrook (hamstring) did not return to Friday's preseason game versus the Sacramento Kings. Head coach Darvin Ham had the 33-year-old come off the bench to see things would play out. However, Ham couldn't assess things properly, especially since Westbrook logged only five minutes before exiting. As a result, it's unknown […]

Ben Simmons Fouls Out On Friday Night

Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Ben Simmons fouled out during Friday's preseason finale versus the Minnesota Timberwolves. Overall, he played 13 minutes on the night and finished with two points while adding six rebounds and two boards. Simmons ended the preseason by averaging 21.4 minutes per game, which is reassuring, considering he's coming off back surgery. Only […]

Skylar Thompson Will Start In Week 6

Miami Dolphins quarterback Skylar Thompson will make his first career start on Sunday versus the Minnesota Vikings, with Teddy Bridgewater (concussion) to serve as his backup. The 2022 seventh-round pick was thrust into action during the Week 5 meeting with the Jets after Bridgewater was ruled out. He had a rough showing in that one, […]

Carson Wentz Diagnosed With A Fractured Finger

Washington Commanders quarterback Carson Wentz (finger) suffered a fractured finger on this throwing hand during Thursday's win over the Chicago Bears. As a result, he will travel to Los Angeles to visit a specialist to determine the next course of action. The 29-year-old has passed for 1,489 yards and 10 touchdowns this season. However, he […]

Tua Tagovailoa Clears Concussion Protocol

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (concussion) cleared protocol on Saturday morning and is expected to return in Week 7 against the Steelers. In the meantime, rookie Skylar Thompson will be under center versus the Minnesota Vikings, with Teddy Bridgewater to serve as his backup. The 2022 seventh-round pick finished with 166 yards and an interception […]

Mike Boone Practices Fully On Friday

Denver Broncos running back Mike Boone (foot) practiced fully on Friday. He logged a limited session on Thursday, so he's seemingly trending in the right direction ahead of Monday night's matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. The 27-year-old was expected to see an uptick in snaps behind Melvin Gordon III (neck) after Javonte Williams (knee) […]

Samaje Perine Logs A Full Practice On Friday

Cincinnati Bengals running back Samaje Perine (abdomen) practiced in full on Friday and was removed from the injury report ahead of Sunday's game in New Orleans. The 27-year-old has only logged 15 carries for 70 yards this season. However, he's been getting some work as a pass-catcher, recently catching all four of his targets for […]

Justice Hill Doubtful Against Giants

Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill (hamstring) isn't expected to play on Sunday against the Giants. The 24-year-old didn't suit up for the Week 5 AFC North matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals, either, so this will mark his second straight absence. Hill has logged only 19 carries for 125 yards this season, so he's not […]

Mark Andrews Looks To Build Off Solid Week 5 Showing

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews finished with eight catches for 89 yards and a touchdown during the Sunday Night Football win over the Bengals. Rashod Bateman (foot) didn't play in that one, so the 27-year-old took advantage of his 10 targets. With the wideout sitting again for the Week 6 showdown versus the Giants, […]

J.K. Dobbins A Risky Option Versus G-Men

Baltimore Ravens running back J.K. Dobbins has been hit or miss this season. After missing the entire 2021-22 campaign because of a knee injury, Dobbins returned in Week 3 against the Pats. However, as expected, he didn't do much. Yet, in Week 4 versus Buffalo, the 23-year-old seemingly came to life by totaling two touchdowns. […]

Lamar Jackson Looks To Expose 4-1 Giants On Sunday

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson has assembled an MVP-caliber season thus far and will look to keep things rolling against the Giants in Week 6. On paper, it appears the team has held opposing quarterbacks in check. Yet, considering New York has faced some of the worst offenses in the league, things aren't as they […]

Tyler Boyd Still A Flex Option In Week 6

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd had 105 yards and a touchdown off four catches in Week 3 against the New York Jets. Since then, the veteran has compiled only five receptions for 79 yards. Despite Boyd's weak showings, he has had a better season than most expected. That doesn't mean he won't struggle moving […]

Joe Mixon Needs To Turn Things Around On Sunday

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon is averaging a dreadful 3.1 yards per carry this season. The 26-year-old also hasn't surpassed the 100-yard rushing mark, and his single end zone trip is also concerning. Considering Mixon was selected in the first and second rounds of fantasy drafts, nobody expected things would be this bad. With […]

Ja'Marr Chase Looking To Get Things Going Versus New Orleans

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Ja'Marr Chase has struggled to some degree this season. After scoring five touchdowns in the first five weeks of his rookie campaign, he only has two this season. He also has surpassed the 100-yard mark just once in 2022-23, and his 10.7 yards per catch is a massive step in the […]

Joe Burrow Looks To Rebound From Week 5 Loss Versus Saints

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow didn't look his best during the Sunday night AFC North showdown with the Ravens. He finished that one with only 217 yards and a touchdown. The 25-year-old also threw a pick, although he was still accurate by completing over 68% of his attempts. With another loss in the books, Burrow […]

Evan McPherson Remains A Solid Option On Sunday

New Orleans Saints kicker Evan McPherson remains a must-start heading into the Week 6 matchup versus the Saints. The 23-year-old has nailed 10 of his 12 field goal tries this season. While McPherson's two misses are somewhat concerning, especially considering his preseason ranking, he continues to regain his rookie form from week to week. He'll […]

Bengals Defense Has Upside Versus Hobbled Saints Offense

The Bengals defense enters the Week 6 matchup versus the Saints with a large amount of potential. While the unit has been hit or miss this season, New Orleans could continue to suffer without Michael Thomas (foot) and Jarvis Landry (ankle). To make matters worse, Chris Olave (concussion) is questionable, although he may play after […]

Anthony Davis Won't Play On Friday Night

Los Angeles Lakers forward Anthony Davis (back) won't suit up in the team's preseason finale versus the Kings on Friday. The veteran has been dealing with lower back tightness, so he'll be held out for precautionary reasons. On a positive note, head coach Darvin Ham reported Davis would "definitely play" in the season-opener against the […]

Kostas Antetokounmpo Receives Two-Way Deal From Bulls

The Bulls signed forward Kostas Antetokounmpo to a two-way deal on Friday. He had already been with the team on an Exhibit 10 deal in training camp, so the move was seemingly in the works well before it was made official. The 24-year-old has appeared in 22 games for the Mavericks and Lakers during his […]

Derrick Favors Expected To Be Waived By Houston

Houston Rockets forward/center Derrick Favors will be waived. The veteran was traded from OKC in September after averaging 5.3 points and 4.7 rebounds in 39 games last season. Favors was never expected to see the floor in Houston, so the latest news isn't a surprise by any means. While he's well past his prime, a […]

Jaden McDaniels Has Fourth-Year Team Option Picked Up

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Jaden McDaniels had his fourth-year team option picked up on Friday. The 22-year-old has appeared in 133 games over two seasons since being drafted. In that timeframe, he's averaged 8.1 points, 3.9 rebounds, and nearly a block. McDaniels is expected to start throughout the 2022-23 campaign. While that won't make him a […]

Anthony Edwards Has 2023-24 Option Picked Up

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Anthony Edwards had his 2023-24 option picked up by the team on Friday. The 2020 No. 1 overall pick has averaged 20.3 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 3.8 assists since entering the league. Edwards did generate 2.6 turnovers last season, which isn't ideal, and his 34.4% shooting from deep could use some work. […]
