Saints Sign Trevor Siemian

The New Orleans Saints have signed quarterback Trevor Siemian. With Drew Brees (ribs) on the Injured Reserve, Siemian provides some depth behind Taysom Hill and Jameis Winston. The most plausible explanation for the move is that Siemian could serve as the No. 2 quarterback behind Winston should this week's attempt to make Hill into a […]

T.J. Hockenson Off Week 11 Injury Report

Detroit Lions tight end T.J. Hockenson (toe) has been removed from the team's injury report ahead of their Week 11 contest against the Carolina Panthers. Carolina has allowed four touchdowns to tight ends in the last five games, so you can feel confident in deploying Hockenson as your fantasy TE1 in this week's contest, even […]

Alec Burks Signing With Knicks

So far, the New York Knicks and their cap space haven't made a splashy free agency move. If that continues to be true, shooting guard Alec Burks's decision to sign there on Friday could be big for his own numbers and for potential fantasy managers. Burks split last season between Golden State and Philly. In […]

Garrett Temple To Sign With Bulls

Free agent shooting guard Garrett Temple has agreed to a one-year, $5 million deal to sign with the Chicago Bulls. A needed veteran presence on this team who can play multiple positions, Temple is unlikely to get the minutes needed to provide much in the way of fantasy value. He's more of a locker room […]

Derrick Jones Jr. Signing With Portland

Free agent forward Derrick Jones Jr. is leaving the Miami Heat and is signing a two-year, $19 million deal with the Portland Trail Blazers. Best known for his incredibly leaping ability, DJJ started 16 games in Miami this past season. For the year, he averaged 8.5 points and 3.9 rebounds per game while shooting 52.7 […]

Robin Lopez Agrees To Deal With Wizards

Free agent center Robin Lopez has agreed to terms on a deal with the Washington Wizards. Lopez played 66 games for the Milwaukee Bucks last year, where he mostly backed up brother Brook Lopez. RoLo posted numbers that were a sharp decrease from his recent seasons, including averaging 5.4 points and 2.4 rebounds per contest. […]

Jakob Poeltl Re-Signs With Spurs

San Antonio Spurs center Jakob Poeltl has re-signed with the team on a three-year, $27 million contract. Poeltl played in 66 games for the Spurs last year, starting 18 of them and averaging 5.6 points, 5.7 rebounds, and 1.4 blocks per game. He shot 62.4 percent. There are still a few questions to answer about […]

Steven Adams Traded To Pelicans

The New Orleans Pelicans have acquired center Steven Adams from Oklahoma City as part of a complicated, multi-team deal. Provided nothing happens to disrupt the deal, Adams will be the starting center in Oklahoma City since they let Derrick Favors leave for Utah. Adams should see his minutes rise back into the 30-plus per game […]

Nuggets To Sign JaMychal Green

The Denver Nuggets have agreed to a two-year deal with power forward JaMychal Green worth $15 million. Denver needed to make a move in the front court after losing Jerami Grant to the Pistons on Friday, and while Green won't necessarily replace Grant's production, he does give them a stretch four who shot 38.7 percent […]

Montrezl Harrell Agrees To Deal With Lakers

The Los Angeles Lakers and free agent center Montrezl Harrell have agreed to terms on a two-year deal that sees Harrell move from one Los Angeles team to the other. The reigning Sixth Man of the Year, Harrell's defensive liabilities make this seem like a curious move for the Lakers in some ways, but he […]

Davis Bertans Agrees To Five-Year Deal With Wizards

Free agent forward Davis Bertans is returning to the Wizards on a five-year, $80 million deal. One of the most coveted players in this year's free agent market, Bertans returns to the team he played 54 games for last season, where he averaged 15.4 points and 4.5 rebounds per game while shooting 42.4 percent from […]

Malik Beasley Agrees To Big Deal With Minnesota

The Minnesota Timberwolves have agreed to a four-year, $60 million deal with guard Malik Beasley. Beasley was traded to Minnesota in February, starting all 14 games after the deal and averaging 20.7 points and 5.1 rebounds per game while shooting 42.6 percent from three. If that version of Beasley is what we get going forward, […]

Rodney Hood Staying In Portland

Small forward Rodney Hood has agreed to a two-year, $21 million deal to stay with the Portland Trail Blazers. Hood averaged 11 points, 3.4 rebounds, and 1.5 assists in 21 games last season. He shot 50.6 percent from the field and 49.3 percent from three. Hood torn his Achilles last season, so it's quite possible […]

Dwight Howard To Sign One-Year Deal With Sixers

Free agent center Dwight Howard is signing a one-year contract with the Philadelphia 76ers, where he'll serve as Joel Embiid's backup. Howard's no longer an elite center, but his skillset still works really well as a bench big. He's more valuable in real life than fantasy at this point, but his rebounding and finishing at […]

Josh Jackson Signing With Pistons

Free agent small forward Josh Jackson is signing a deal with the Detroit Pistons. After two bad years in Phoenix, Jackson spent last season with the Grizzlies, playing 22 games and averaging 9.0 points, 3.0 rebounds, and 1.6 assists on 44 percent shooting. He showed signs of improvement, but this move still just feels like […]

Danilo Gallinari Signing With Hawks

The Atlanta Hawks have agreed to a three-year, $61.5 million deal with free agent forward Danilo Gallinari. The veteran forward spent last season in Oklahoma City, but the Thunder are starting a rebuild. With averages of 18.7 points and 5.2 rebounds on 40.5 percent shooting from deep last year, Gallo is a huge addition for […]

Jahlil Okafor Signing With Pistons

The Detroit Pistons added their fifth big of the offseason on Friday, agreeing to a two-year deal with free agent center Jahlil Okafor. This follows the drafting of Isaiah Stewart, signing of Mason Plumlee, and trades for Dewayne Dedmon and Tony Bradley. That's...a lot. Okafor averaged 8.1 points and 4.2 boards per game for New […]

Derrick Favors Signing Three-Year Deal With Jazz

Free agent power forward Derrick Favors has agreed to a three-year, $30 million deal to return to the Utah Jazz, where he played from 2011 to 2019 before being traded to the New Orleans Pelicans. In one year for the Pels, Favors averaged 9.0 points and 9.8 rebounds per game. In Utah, expect to see […]

De'Aaron Fox Signing Five-Year Max Extension

Sacramento Kings point guard De'Aaron Fox has agreed to a five-year, $163 million max extension. The promising young guard will be counted on by Sacramento to lead them into the future. It's still not clear if Fox is good enough to be the best player on a contender, but he averaged 21.1 points and 6.8 […]

Jordan Clarkson Returning To Jazz On Four-Year Deal

Shooting guard Jordan Clarkson has agreed to a four-year, $52 million deal to return to the Utah Jazz. Acquired mid-season, Clarkson played 42 games for the Jazz, averaging 15.6 points, 2.8 rebounds, and 1.6 assists while shooting 46.2 percent from the floor and 36.6 percent from three. The veteran guard seemed to find a role […]

Goran Dragic Re-Signing With Heat

The Miami Heat and point guard Goran Dragic have agreed to terms on a two-year deal worth $37.4 million. There's a team option in the second year. The aging Dragic dealt with injuries the past couple of years, but was healthy for the playoffs last year and averaged 19.1 points, 4.4 assists, and 4.1 rebounds […]

Nuggets To Sign Facundo Campazzo

The Denver Nuggets have agreed to a two-year deal with Real Madrid point guard Facundo Campazzo. Currently in the midst of a EuroLeague season, Campazzo will now head stateside to play for Denver. It's hard to know what to expect from Campazzo, an elite passer who seems unlikely to displace Jamal Murray from the starting […]

Drew Eubanks Agrees To Three-Year Deal With Spurs

San Antonio Spurs power forward Drew Eubanks is signing a three-year deal to return to the team. While his 2019-20 numbers weren't great, he played well in the bubble, averaging 7.0 points, 6.3 rebounds, and 1.4 blocks in the eight games the Spurs played. He's unlikely to repeat that performance over a full season, but […]

Wesley Matthews Signing With Lakers

Free agent guard Wesley Matthews is signing a one-year, $3.6 million deal with the Los Angeles Lakers. With Danny Green gone and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope looking at deals elsewhere, Matthews has a chance to play a key role as a reserve 3-and-D wing for this Lakers team. If that translates into fantasy success will depend on […]

Dwayne Bacon Signing With Magic

Free agent small forward Dwayne Bacon has agreed to terms on a two-year deal with the Orlando Magic, with a team option in the second year. Bacon started 11 of his 39 games last year for the Hornets, averaging 5.7 points, 2.6 rebounds, and 1.3 assists while shooting just 28.4 percent from three. Bacon is […]

Mason Plumlee Agrees To Deal With Pistons

Free agent center Mason Plumlee has agreed to a three-year, $25 million deal with the Detroit Pistons. The move seems to indicate that Christian Wood will leave Detroit in free agency, as Plumlee's addition doesn't make much sense otherwise. Detroit also acquired Dewayne Dedmon this week, giving them a new-look frontcourt. Plumlee averaged 7.2 points […]

Enes Kanter Traded To Portland

Center Enes Kanter has been traded to the Portland Trail Blazers as part of a three-team deal that sends a future first to the Celtics and Mario Hezonja to Memphis. Kanter looks to be the backup to Jusuf Nurkic. A good offensive player, Kanter will likely see a dip in his minutes this season, making […]

NBA Draft: Five Rookies Most Likely To Struggle In 2020-21

The 2020 NBA Draft was Wednesday night, and while this fast-paced week of NBA action probably has you thinking about free agency already, let's not forget about how the draft will impact fantasy basketball this season. Every year, rookies come in and create an immediate impact, but you probably know who to target if that's […]

Klay Thompson Has Torn Achilles

Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson suffered a torn Achilles on Wednesday and will miss the entire 2020-21 NBA season. It's a huge setback for Thompson, who missed all of last season due to a torn ACL. Achilles injuries are particularly devastating for basketball players and it's likely we've seen the last of Thompson as […]

2020 NBA Draft Winners and Losers - Instant Analysis

Last night's NBA Draft is the mid-point in a wild week of offseason action for the NBA. In a draft without a clear first pick, the Minnesota Timberwolves chose to go with Georgia's Anthony Edwards. Golden State -- who may have lost Klay Thompson for the year with an Achilles injury on Wednesday -- took […]
