P.J. Washington Questionable Friday Against Clippers

Dallas Mavericks forward P.J. Washington (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Friday's NBA Cup game against the Los Angeles Clippers. Washington left Wednesday night's game against the Phoenix Suns after just five minutes of action due to a left shoulder strain. Dallas listing him as questionable could further harm a roster already hurt by injuries. […]


Dereck Lively II Questionable Friday Versus Clippers

Dallas Mavericks center Dereck Lively II (knee) is listed as questionable for Friday's matchup against the Los Angeles Clippers. Lively has missed the last nine games for the struggling Mavericks, but this questionable tag is good news that he's improving and should return sooner rather than later. Dallas has been hit with the injury bug […]


Jonathan Kuminga Listed as Questionable for Friday

Golden State Warriors forward Jonathan Kuminga (knee) is questionable for Friday night's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Kuminga was one of the most important players for Golden State and helped the team with improved play earlier in the season. Unfortunately, a cold streak dropped his stats to averages of 13.8 points, 6.6 rebounds and […]


Jared McCain Available Tuesday Against Celtics

Philadelphia 76ers guard Jared McCain (knee) is listed as available for Tuesday's game against the Boston Celtics. The second-year player has only played two games this season after last season's hot start ended with an injury. McCain looked like the early Rookie of the Year favorite in his first season to set high expectations for […]


Sam Hauser Probable Tuesday Versus Philadelphia

Boston Celtics forward Sam Hauser (wrist) is listed as probable for Tuesday's in-season tournament game against the Philadelphia 76ers. The Celtics already have a limited roster with Jayson Tatum (Achilles) out and many great players from last season traded away. Hauser has been called upon in some big moments this season, but he's only playing […]


Day'Ron Sharpe Questionable Versus Raptors

Brooklyn Nets center Day'Ron Sharpe (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. The reserve big man left Sunday's game against the New York Knicks due to left hamstring tightness. Brooklyn re-signed him in free agency to remain part of their rebuilding youth movement. Sharpe has averaged 6.7 points and 5.3 […]


Patrick Williams Active Versus San Antonio

Chicago Bulls forward Patrick Williams (finger) is listed as available for the Monday night matchup against the San Antonio Spurs. The sprained left finger led to a probable tag, but Williams was always expected to play in this game. Averages of 8.6 points, 3.0 rebounds, and 1.8 assists per game have made him a limited […]


Giannis Antetokounmpo Available Versus Dallas

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) is available for Monday's game versus the Dallas Mavericks. The probable tag led fantasy managers to believe the MVP candidate would be active, and it's been confirmed that he won't miss the second half of a back-to-back. Antetokounmpo is having another spectacular season, averaging 33.8 points, 12.3 rebounds, 6.2 […]


Josh Giddey Ruled Out Against Spurs

Chicago Bulls guard Josh Giddey (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Saturday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers saw Giddey fall to the floor after a crossover by De'Andre Hunter and injuring his ankle in a memorable moment. There was hope of the 23-year-old suiting up against San Antonio, […]


Santi Aldama Available Versus Phoenix

Memphis Grizzlies forward Santi Aldama (shoulder) is available to play in Wednesday's game against the Phoenix Suns. Aldama was listed as questionable due to left shoulder soreness putting his status in doubt. The 24-year-old forward has played every game for Memphis so far this season, and he has a larger role after the team lost […]


Jalen Green Ruled Out Against Grizzlies

Phoenix Suns guard Jalen Green (hamstring) is officially ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. The questionable tag provided some hope he'd play his first game of the season, but the Suns will miss one of their top scoring options in a forecasted high-scoring affair. Green's hamstring issue has prevented him from suiting […]


Keon Ellis Available Versus Bulls

Sacramento Kings guard Keon Ellis (shoulder) is officially available to play on Wednesday evening against the Chicago Bulls. There was some concern over his status due to a nagging left shoulder injury and the timing of the second half of a back-to-back slate. Sacramento will have Ellis suiting up and hoping to build off his […]


Cameron Johnson Will Play Against New Orleans

Denver Nuggets forward Cameron Johnson (shoulder) is available for Wednesday evening's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Johnson is the biggest addition from the recent major offseason changes, but he's struggled in the early season and recently suffered a minor shoulder injury. The 29-year-old left Monday's game in a victory against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Fantasy […]


Zaccharie Risacher Will Play Wednesday

Atlanta Hawks forward Zaccharie Risacher (ankle) has been cleared to play in Wednesday night's road game versus the Brooklyn Nets. Risacher has missed two of the last three games and only registered 20 minutes in his recent game against the Chicago Bulls. A right ankle sprain has limited the second-year player hoping to prove the […]


Jalen Johnson Available Against Nets

Atlanta Hawks forward Jalen Johnson (ankle) is listed as active for Wednesday night's game against the Brooklyn Nets. Johnson was initially listed as probable, but he's been battling a right ankle sprain that forced him to miss one game so far during a back-to-back. Atlanta has seen the 23-year-old become a bright spot during a […]


Anthony Edwards Active Against Trail Blazers

Minnesota Timberwolves shooting guard Anthony Edwards (back) will play in the season opener against the Portland Trail Blazers. Edwards missed the final preseason game for rest purposes, but he was listed as questionable for the opener due to lower back spasms. Minnesota confirmed that their superstar is suiting up and will start against the Trail […]


Grayson Allen Active for Suns’ Opening Night Game

Phoenix Suns guard Grayson Allen (hip) will be available for the home opener against the Sacramento Kings. The Suns are anticipated to start him this season with a limited roster lacking depth after losing Kevin Durant and Bradley Beal. Allen played in three Phoenix preseason games, but he's been dealing with hip soreness to put […]


Daniel Gafford Ruled Out for Mavericks Season Opener

Dallas Mavericks center Daniel Gafford (ankle) will miss Wednesday's opening night game against the San Antonio Spurs. Gafford sprained his ankle during the opening practice of training camp and missed the entire preseason. The 27-year-old was listed as doubtful until the Mavericks confirmed that he would be sitting out the home opener. Reporters saw Gafford […]


Caris LeVert Listed Probable for Season Opener

Detroit Pistons guard Caris LeVert (knee) is listed as probable for Tuesday's game against the Chicago Bulls. LeVert has been dealing with right-knee soreness, but he is in good enough health to likely play in the season opener. The 31-year-old veteran will play his first official regular-season game for Detroit after joining via free agency […]


Jalen Williams Ruled Out for Season Opener

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Jalen Williams (wrist) is listed as inactive for Tuesday's opening night game against the Houston Rockets. Williams will likely be in attendance to take part in the team's ring ceremony to honor the 2024 NBA Championship, but he is officially ruled out for the season opener. The 24-year-old underwent surgery in […]

Blake Bortles Reached New Heights in 2015

The biggest fantasy football surprise in 2015 was the emergence of Blake Bortles as a top fantasy quarterback.

Which Packers Can Be Trusted In The Fantasy Football Championships

The Green Bay Packers were supposed to be one of the few trustworthy fantasy offenses this season but inconsistencies have plagued fantasy owners with frustration and doubt. The Packers fantasy stars were all shockingly quiet on Sunday against a poor Oakland Raiders defense. This has led to the question of if you can trust Green […]


Week 15 Tight End Outlooks: Greg Olsen, Richard Rodgers, Travis Kelce

Tight ends are hit or miss on a weekly basis with the ability to be the difference maker in a win or a loss. The position is basically Rob Gronkowski and everyone else.

Week 15 Running Back Outlooks: David Johnson, Tim Hightower, Eddie Lacy

Week 15 will be a fascinating time for running backs in fantasy football.
