Sacramento Kings guard Dennis Schroder turns into a superstar every time he puts on the German National Team's jersey. He did it yet again as he led the Germans to the gold in EuroBasket this year and was even named the MVP. In the 88-83 win over Turkey, the 32-year-old posted 16 points, 12 assists, […]

According to ESPN NBA insiders Anthony Slater and Shams Charania, the Warriors have recently made a stronger offer to Kuminga worth $75.2 million over three years.

Cardinals D/ST a Risky Streaming Option in Week 2
The Arizona Cardinals defense/special teams heads into another great streaming opportunity after they were able to start the season against the shaky offense of the New Orleans Saints. The issue is that the Cardinals' defense couldn't quite capitalize to deliver a strong fantasy outing. They didn't force any turnovers and registered just one sack, even […]

Chad Ryland a Viable Starting Option in Week 2
Arizona Cardinals kicker Chad Ryland put together a solid performance in Week 1 after scoring a total of eight points while going 2-for-3 in field goals. He knocked through a 42 and 50-yard field goal, but had a 46-yarder blocked in the fourth quarter. The Cardinals' offense should be able to move the ball down […]

Trey McBride Ready for Another Big Week vs. Panthers
Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride needs no introduction at this point. Last season, he was the second-most targeted tight end and saw the eighth most overall. In Week 1, he received another nine targets and caught six of them for 61 yards. The only area he's lacked in thus far in his career is […]

Zay Jones Remains Unstartable in Week 2
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Zay Jones didn't play much of a part in the passing game during the Week 1 win over the New Orleans Saints. The 30-year-old caught his only target for four yards despite playing 47% of the snaps. When it comes to pecking order in the passing game, Jones was tied for […]

Michael Wilson Off of the Fantasy Radar in Week 2
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson received the third most targets on the team in Week 1 but could only manage to turn that into one reception for five yards. The third-year wideout will remain behind Trey McBride and Marvin Harrison Jr. in the pecking order and may even fall behind some of the running […]

Marvin Harrison Jr. Holds High-Level WR2 Value in Week 2
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. delivered a WR10 finish in half-PPR leagues against the New Orleans Saints in Week 1. Many expect the second-year wideout to break out after he failed to reach some lofty expectations in his rookie season. While Trey McBride still commands more targets, Harrison wasn't too far behind. The […]

James Conner Primed to Find More Success in Week 2?
Arizona Cardinals running back James Conner salvaged his fantasy week against the New Orleans Saints in Week 1 with a four-yard receiving touchdown in the second quarter. Outside of that, he saw 12 carries for only 39 yards while Trey Benson took eight carries for 69 yards. We may have finally hit the timeline where […]

Kyler Murray Holds QB1 Value Again in Week 2
Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray finished just outside of QB1 territory in Week 1 after throwing two touchdowns against the New Orleans Saints. His accuracy looked good most of the time, but the passing attack didn't gain many yards (163), and he was sacked five times. Fortunately, for Murray and company, the Carolina Panthers gave […]

Tyler Loop Remains a Solid Option Against Browns
Baltimore Ravens kicker Tyler Loop enjoyed a good start to his NFL career despite the missed extra point against the Buffalo Bills. With 12 fantasy points, he came in as the K7 in his first game after making a 52-yarder and a 49-yarder, along with going four-for-five in extra points. This offense should have no […]

Ravens D/ST Looking to Bounce Back Against Browns
The Baltimore Ravens defense/special teams had a rough go of things against Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills in Week 1. Throughout three quarters, they looked okay, but then a nightmare of a fourth quarter saw them giving up 22 points and eventually the game. In standard scoring, they came away with negative points in […]

DeAndre Hopkins a Touchdown-or-Bust Option in Week 2
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins proved why he's a three-time All-Pro with an amazing one-handed grab against the Buffalo Bills for a touchdown. While his days of 100+ targets per season are in the rearview mirror, he can still play that outlet role whenever called upon. The biggest issue for fantasy managers is that […]

Rashod Bateman a Risky Flex Play Against Browns
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman didn't join in on the scoring in Week 1 despite the team hanging 40 points against the Buffalo Bills. Despite seeing a new career high almost across the board last season, Bateman is the definition of boom-or-bust when it comes to fantasy purposes. That's personified in the two matchups […]

Zay Flowers Looks to Build on Great Opening Performance
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers put up the second-highest fantasy points of his career in the Week 1 loss to the Buffalo Bills. In half-PPR formats, that rates second to only his game against the Denver Broncos in Week 9 last season. Now, he'll try to carry that momentum into the first divisional matchup […]

Justice Hill Doesn't Carry Much Value in Week 2
Baltimore Ravens running back Justice Hill received two carries and two targets out of the backfield in Week 1 against the Buffalo Bills. Combined, he totaled -11 yards despite seeing a 45% snap share next to Derrick Henry. While he likely won't be in the negatives again, the Cleveland Browns defense is a bit tougher, […]

Derrick Henry has Plenty of Bulletin-Board Material vs. Browns
Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry doesn't have anything to prove when it comes to his overall career. After last week, however, he'll look to bounce back after fumbling during a key moment in the fourth quarter, which eventually led to a loss. Then, while talking to the media, Grant Delpit from the Browns responded […]

Lamar Jackson Sets Sights on First Divisional Matchup
Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson is leading the team into their first divisional matchup with the Cleveland Browns in Week 2 after a devastating loss to the Buffalo Bills. Even though Jackson turned in a great performance, the team gave up 22 points in the fourth quarter to eventually lose by one. The Browns don't […]

Free-agent guard Malcolm Brogdon will join his sixth team in 10 seasons after agreeing to a one-year deal with the New York Knicks.

Landry Shamet Staying with the Knicks
New York Knicks guard Landry Shamet is sticking around with the team for at least one more year. According to ESPN's Shams Charania, Shamet and the Knicks agreed to a one-year deal on Thursday. The former first-round pick has spent time on six different teams since being drafted by the Philadelphia 76ers in 2018. Last […]

Cardinals D/ST a Great Streaming Option in Week 1
The Arizona Cardinals defense/special teams was very inconsistent last season, which was a common theme amongst the entire squad. They were smack in the middle of the pack at 15th for points against (22.3 per game), and they ranked 20th in takeaways. This past offseason, however, the team focused on bolstering the defense in a […]

Chad Ryland a Mid-Level Play in Week 1
Arizona Cardinals kicker Chad Ryland finished in K2 territory (K18 overall) last season despite hitting 87.5% of his field goals. The Cardinals' offense stalled out in a handful of games, which hurt Ryland's overall production since he wasn't getting into field goal range all the time and wasn't bolstering his fantasy output with extra point […]

Trey McBride Eyes Another Elite Season
Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride has improved his numbers each year over the first three seasons of his career. Last season, he finished with 111 receptions for 1,146 yards and two touchdowns on 147 targets. He finished as the TE2, despite having the fewest touchdowns among the top 11 at his position. A positive […]

Zay Jones Not on the Fantasy Radar in Week 1
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Zay Jones hasn't exactly been fantasy-relevant since his best season with the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2022. Outside of that year, he's gone for more than 600 yards once, back in 2018 with the Buffalo Bills. Last year with the Cardinals, Jones appeared in 11 games and received 11 targets, which turned […]

Michael Wilson Nothing More Than a Dart Throw in Week 1
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Michael Wilson has been quite disappointing through the first two seasons of his career. He was healthier last season and suited up for three more games than his rookie year, yet he put up fewer yards and only one more touchdown with 13 more targets and nine more receptions. He's borderline […]

Marvin Harrison Jr. a High-End WR2 Against Saints
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. entered his rookie year in 2024 with insane expectations as his ADP in fantasy drafts was a late first-round pick. If that price tag weren't so high, a rookie year with 62 receptions, 885 yards, and eight touchdowns on 116 targets would probably have been a little more […]

Trey Benson is Hard to Trust in Week 1
Arizona Cardinals running back Trey Benson produced a very forgettable rookie season in 2024. He registered a total of 69 touches (63 carries, six receptions), 350 yards from scrimmage, one rushing touchdown, and one fumble. The Cardinals hope he eventually becomes the successor to James Conner, but the veteran set career highs in yards and […]
