Stephen Curry Sidelined with Ankle Sprain on Friday

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (ankle) has been downgraded to out on Friday and will not take on the Oklahoma City Thunder. The superstar point guard is dealing with an ankle sprain that will cause him to miss at least one contest so far. Jimmy Butler III (illness) has also been ruled out, so […]


Jimmy Butler III Will Not Play Against Thunder

Golden State Warriors forward Jimmy Butler III (illness) has been ruled out for Friday's meeting with the Oklahoma City Thunder due to an illness. The veteran wing is coming off of a very efficient and well-rounded game against the Charlotte Hornets on New Years Eve. Unfortunately, Butler will be joined by Stephen Curry (ankle) and […]


Seth Curry Sidelined on Friday Vs. Thunder

Golden State Warriors guard Seth Curry (back) will not suit up against the Oklahoma City Thunder while he suffers from sciatic nerve irritation. The 35-year-old has only been able to play in two games for the Warriors so far while the team has been hit hard with the injury bug lately. Most of the backcourt […]


Draymond Green Getting a Rest Day Against Thunder

Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green (rest) will not play on Friday against the defending champ Oklahoma City Thunder. The former Defensive Player of the Year is receiving a rest day which will open up some minutes for Al Horford (probable - back) and Trayce Jackson-Davis. Horford may move into the starting five, but has […]


Jerami Grant Still Watching From Sidelines on Friday

Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (Achilles) will miss an eighth consecutive game on Friday as he continues to deal with tendonitis in his left Achilles. The veteran forward has battled with injuries for most of his career, but has posted 20.0 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 2.7 assists per game through 26 appearances this season. […]


Zach Collins Remains Out on Friday

Chicago Bulls center Zach Collins (toe) will not suit up against the Orlando Magic while he continues to deal with a toe sprain. The 28-year-old has already missed two consecutive games prior to Friday, and has only appeared in 10 games so far this season. While he's been out, Jalen Smith has seen some added […]


Isaiah Likely Continues to Struggle, Carries TE3 Value into Week 17

Baltimore Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely had some big hopes and expectations entering this season after breaking out in a handful of games last year. He had a bunch of "almost big plays" this season, but ultimately, he's cracked the TE1 level twice and TE2 once. Now, the Ravens are probably operating without Lamar Jackson […]


Keaton Mitchell a Risky Flex Option Against Packers

Baltimore Ravens running back Keaton Mitchell has seen more and more snaps as each week goes on, but it hasn't exactly turned into enough production for fantasy managers. The past two games, he's seen a season-high 39% and 35% snap share, but has only produced finishes of RB35 and RB64. Derrick Henry should get plenty […]


Rashod Bateman a Dart Throw Option in Week 17

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman has finished as a WR3 or higher in just two games all year in half-PPR formats. Once in Week 3 as the WR15 and again in Week 9 as the WR36. His average finish this season is the WR78, which firmly puts him outside of the start-worthy options in […]


Mark Andrews is Tough to Trust Against Packers

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews hasn't been kind to any fantasy managers that have decided to play him through the fantasy playoffs thus far. The veteran hasn't posted a finish in TE1 territory since Week 11 in half-PPR formats. His Week 17 matchup doesn't make it any easier either, since the Green Bay Packers […]


Zay Flowers Looking to Keep Momentum Rolling into Week 17

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers has now followed up one of his worst games in his three-year career with three weeks of 14 or more fantasy points in half-PPR formats. His lowest finish over the last few weeks has been WR15, and he came in as the WR8 last week against the New England […]


Derrick Henry Remains Low-End RB1 in Week 17

Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry has faced some tough times this season in regard to ball security and questionable coaching decisions. While he registered his fourth fumble of the year last week against the New England Patriots, he still accrued 128 yards and two touchdowns on 18 carries. Tyler Huntley is likely to be […]


Tyler Huntley Holding Low-End QB2 Value Vs. Packers

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Tyler Huntley looks to be in line to start against the Green Bay Packers after Lamar Jackson (back) received a doubtful status on the injury report. The former Pro-Bowler took over for Jackson after he suffered a back contusion in their Week 16 loss to the New England Patriots. Huntley posted 65 […]


Tyler Loop a Low-End K1 Value Against Bengals

Baltimore Ravens kicker Tyler Loop bounced back in Week 14 with another placement in K1 territory as he finished up as the K7 against the Pittsburgh Steelers. He made two 36-yarders and a 28-yarder while making one of his two extra point attempts. Since the Ravens' offense put up an abysmal performance against the Cincinnati […]


DeAndre Hopkins Hard to Trust in Week 15

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins is coming off of his lowest snap share of the season in Week 14 and his third time producing a goose egg. Head coach John Harbaugh talked about getting Hopkins more involved, which is like listening to a broken record at this point. Rashod Bateman (ankle) is currently listed […]


Keaton Mitchell a Risky Flex Play in Week 15

Baltimore Ravens running back Keaton Mitchell briefly popped up on the injury report after registering a limited practice on Wednesday due to knee issues. Since then, he's been a full participant and was cleared from the injury report. Despite seeing 15% or less of the snap share in the last two weeks, Mitchell has finished […]


Isaiah Likely has Sneaky TE1 Value in Week 15

Baltimore Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely has seen an increased amount of work over the last two weeks. He finished as the TE9 in each of the last two weeks in half-PPR formats, and saw six targets in both games while catching nine of the possible 12. The last time he took on the Cincinnati […]


Mark Andrews a Risky Play Despite TE1 Value Vs. Bengals

Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews (glute) was cleared from the injury report in time for the rematch against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 15. He was only limited in Thursday's practice, and immediately was upgraded to a full participant on Friday. Andrews has struggled to deliver for his fantasy managers over the last three […]


Zay Flowers Checking in with WR2 Potential in Week 15

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers finally returned to WR1 territory last week for the first time since his Week 1 outburst against the Buffalo Bills. Even though he finally broke the streak of non-WR1 finishes, he still hasn't found the end zone since the first game of the season. The encouraging part is that […]


Derrick Henry Back in RB1 Conversation in Week 15

Baltimore Ravens running back Derrick Henry continues to boast RB1 potential heading into the Week 15 matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals. Despite finishing as the RB20 in half-PPR leagues against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 14, Henry has a bounce back opportunity versus a weaker run defense. In Week 13 against the Bengals, Henry finished […]


Lamar Jackson Still Carries QB1 Potential Against Bengals

Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson finally gave fantasy managers a bit of a bounce back against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 14. He finished as the QB6 after failing to finish any better than the QB14 in each of the four weeks before that. Jackson even had a rushing touchdown last week, which was his […]


Jordan Poole Remains Sidelined on Monday

New Orleans Pelicans guard Jordan Poole (quad) will miss his 18th consecutive game on Monday while dealing with a quad strain. His timetable is still unclear, so there's no telling how much time he'll continue to miss. While he's sidelined, Jeremiah Fears and Bryce McGowens have been anchoring the backcourt with Trey Murphy III mixed […]


Herbert Jones Tagged as Questionable Against Spurs

New Orleans Pelicans forward Herbert Jones (calf) remains on Monday's injury report ahead of their contest with the San Antonio Spurs. He's dealing with a right calf strain which has kept him out of their last eight games, but he's considered questionable for this one. While Jones, Jordan Poole (quad), and Zion Williamson (adductor) have […]


Stephon Castle has a Chance to Return on Monday

San Antonio Spurs guard Stephon Castle (hip) has been out since November 16 with a strained hip flexor, but has received a questionable status for Monday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. The second-year combo guard has seen sizable jumps in his numbers from his rookie season. Through 13 games played, he's averaging 17.3 points, […]


Dillon Brooks Iffy for Monday Night

Phoenix Suns forward Dillon Brooks (Achilles) popped up on the team's injury report with a sore Achilles ahead of the team's Monday night contest against the Minnesota Timberwolves. The veteran wing has been enjoying one of his best seasons to date with averages of 22.3 points, 3.2 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 1.6 steals, and 2.3 threes […]


Dennis Schroder Could Return on Monday Night

Sacramento Kings guard Dennis Schroder (hip) has missed the last five games with a hip flexor strain. He remains on the injury report, but he drew another questionable tag heading into Monday night's contest against the Indiana Pacers. If he does suit up, it'll likely mean fewer minutes for Malik Monk and Nique Clifford. On […]


Keegan Murray Listed as Questionable Vs. Pacers

Sacramento Kings forward Keegan Murray (back/shoulder) is listed on the injury report ahead of Monday's game against the Indiana Pacers. The former fourth overall pick is dealing with right trapezius soreness and is considered questionable for this matchup. Since returning from his thumb injury, Murray hasn't missed a game yet and is averaging 16.4 points, […]


Ravens D/ST is an Interesting Option in Week 14

The Baltimore Ravens D/ST had a rough go of things in Week 13 when Joe Burrow returned to the field and put up 32 points against them. While they did force one turnover, it was difficult to overcome their own offense coughing the ball up five times. In Week 14, they go up against the […]


Tyler Loop Remains a Top Option in Week 14

Baltimore Ravens kicker Tyler Loop unfortunately didn't deliver for fantasy managers in Week 13. The Ravens' offense could only muster up 14 points against one of the worst defenses in the league. Loop didn't attempt any field goals, but made both of his extra points. In Week 14, they take on the Pittsburgh Steelers who […]


Keaton Mitchell Facing an Uphill Battle in Week 14

Baltimore Ravens running back Keaton Mitchell reached double-digit fantasy points for the first time this season against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 13. He even finished as the RB27 in half-PPR formats, while getting a 13% snap share. Since Justice Hill (neck) remains sidelined, Mitchell has taken over the pass-catching work out of the backfield. […]
