2019 NBA Free Agency: Fantasy Risers and Fallers

NBA free agency was a pretty drawn out process this year, but things have slowed down enough that we can talk about where things stand now. There's been a lot of movement around the NBA, especially when it comes to the big name players. Kawhi Leonard. Paul George. Kevin Durant. Kyrie Irving. Kemba Walker. All […]

Coby White Expected To Come Off Bench As Rookie

Chicago Bulls rookie point guard Coby White is expected to take a backseat to some of the team's other options this upcoming season. Bulls vice president of basketball operations John Paxson said that White's got a lot of learning to do and that the speed of the game could be an issue for White, while […]

Kelly Oubre Jr. Signs Deal With Suns

Restricted free agent forward Kelly Oubre Jr. has signed a two-year deal to remain with the Phoenix Suns. Oubre is a solid player who's likely to end up starting at the three for the Suns, and he has solid fantasy upside as a guy who can give Phoenix something close to 15 points and five […]

Jaguars Sign Receiver Marcus Simms

Following the NFL's Supplemental Draft, the Jacksonville Jaguars have signed undrafted West Virginia wide receiver Marcus Simms. Simms, who was rumored to be a Jacksonville target heading into the Supplemental Draft, caught 46 passes for 699 yards and two touchdowns last season and will have a chance to compete for a spot in the team's […]

Melvin Gordon Wants Trade If New Deal Isn't Reached

Los Angeles Chargers running back Melvin Gordon wants a long-term deal from the Chargers and intends to sit out training camp and demand a trade if a long-term deal isn't reached. Gordon is a late first-round pick in most fantasy formats at this point, so him either not playing or winding up somewhere else could […]

Defending Marcus Mariota

As a longtime fan of the Houston Texans and, therefore, a longtime hater of the Tennessee Titans, it takes a lot for me to defend a Titans player. But all of this Marcus Mariota hate has to stop. Yes, his career up to this point hasn't resembled what people wanted from it and he's not […]

Dynasty Startup ADP Arbitrage - Eric Ebron vs Irv Smith Jr.

Trying to make decisions in a dynasty startup draft can feel like a lifetime commitment as you're picking a player who'll hopefully be sitting on your roster for years to come. One strategy is to identify some hyped up players, then identify a similar player who's going at a slightly later ADP to draft instead. […]

WNBA Daily Fantasy Lineup Picks (7/10/19): WNBA DFS Advice for DraftKings and FanDuel

We have a bit of a weird situation with Wednesday's slate, as there are three morning games -- all starting before or at noon -- and a night game. DraftKings has a four game slate, but FanDuel's main slate just features the morning games. In this article, I'll be providing you with some daily fantasy WNBA […]

Dynasty Stock Watch for 2019 - Running Back Fallers

In the first part of this column, I took a look at some of the running backs whose stock is rising in dynasty leagues ahead of the 2019 season. Today, it's time to look at the opposite side of things. Fantasy football rankings are a zero-sum game. For a player to break into the top-10 […]

Fantasy Spin: Kawhi Leonard And Paul George To The Clippers

Well, the Kawhi Leonard saga has finally ended, and it happened in the most unexpected way, as Leonard signed with the Clippers late on Friday night in a move that also resulted in the Oklahoma City Thunder sending Paul George to the Clippers for approximately 36 first round draft picks. It's a big deal, one […]

WNBA Daily Fantasy Lineup Picks (7/5/19): WNBA DFS Advice for DraftKings and FanDuel

Hopefully everyone enjoyed their July 4th, though it would have been a little more enjoyable if there'd been some WNBA games to watch. Instead, though, we get a pretty strong four-game slate today, headlined by a Mystics/Aces game that should be an incredibly entertaining finale for the night. In this article, I'll be providing you […]

Ezekiel Elliott Will Not Be Suspended

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott met with the NFL about a May incident in Las Vegas, and the league has determined that Elliott did not violate the league's Personal Conduct Policy. Elliott will not face a suspension and will be available to start the year for the Cowboys. Elliott has led the NFL in […]

Deshaun Watson Holding Informal Workouts With Receivers

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson is holding informal offseason workouts with Houston's receivers, including wide receiver Vyncint Smith, who says the workouts are helping build chemistry with the team's receivers and their quarterback. Watson is one of the NFL's best young quarterback, and getting extra time with his receivers should help the Texans offense this […]

Glenn Robinson III To Sign With Warriors

The Golden State Warriors and free agent small forward Glenn Robinson III are agreed to terms on a two-year deal. Last year with Detroit, Robinson played in 47 games, averaging 4.2 points and 1.5 rebounds per game while shooting 42 percent from the field. Those aren't great numbers, but it's possible Robinson ends up starting […]

Willie Cauley-Stein To Sign With Warriors

With DeMarcus Cousins and Jordan Bell both not returning to the Warriors next season, the team had an opening at the center position. They'll fill it with former Sacramento Kings center Willie Cauley-Stein, who averaged 11.9 points and 8.4 rebounds per game last year. Cauley-Stein is a rangy defender who should easily grab the starting […]

Jeff Green To Sign With Jazz

The Utah Jazz and free agent forward Jeff Green have agreed on a one-year deal for Green to join the Utah Jazz. Green's been a promising and at times inconsistent player for over a decade, but he's coming off a solid year in Washington in which he scored 12.3 points per game to go along […]

Gardner Minshew Could Be Jaguars Backup Quarterback

In his daily mailbag for Jaguars.com, Jaguars insider John Oehser writes that he expects rookie quarterback Gardner Minshew to be the team's top backup for starting quarterback Nick Foles, beating out Tanner Lee and Alex McGough for the spot. Foles will have full reins of the offense, so Minshew shouldn't even be a consideration in […]

D'Onta Foreman Continues To Progress

Houston Texans running back D'Onta Foreman is reportedly "light years" ahead of where he was at last year in recovery from his Achilles tear. Achilles injuries are often multi-year issues, with players missing a full season and then spending the next one working their way back onto the field and towards being close to their […]

WNBA Daily Fantasy Lineup Picks (7/2/19): WNBA DFS Advice for DraftKings and FanDuel

Two games on today's slate, including an afternoon meeting between the Sky and Aces. That'll be followed by the Dream facing the Lynx in a game that could go very poorly for Atlanta if the team's recent play is any indication. In this article, I'll be providing you with some daily fantasy WNBA lineup picks for […]

Taj Gibson To Join Knicks

Free agent power forward Taj Gibson will join the New York Knicks next season, but the veteran finds himself in an unenviable position in terms of playing time. The Knicks signed two younger bigs, Julius Randle and Bobby Portis, who will likely be prioritized on a young New York squad, leaving Gibson to be a […]

Richaun Holmes To Sign With Kings

Center Richaun Holmes has agreed to a free agent deal with the Sacramento Kings. Holmes spent last season in Phoenix, appearing in 70 games and averaging 8.2 points and 4.7 rebounds per game. He’ll be competing with Harry Giles for backup center minutes behind Dewayne Dedmon, and the winner of that battle will possess some […]

Cory Joseph Agrees To Deal With Kings

The Sacramento Kings and free agent guard Cory Joseph have reached an agreement on three-year deal. Joseph will be the backup point guard to De’Aaron Fox. Joseph played all 164 games over his two seasons in Indiana, averaging 7.2 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 3.5 assists over that span of time while shooting 41.8 percent from […]

Enes Kanter To Sign With Celtics

With Al Horford agreeing to a four-year deal with the Philadelphia 76ers, the Boston Celtics needed a new starting center. It appears they’ve found one, agreeing to a two-year deal with Enes Kanter. Kanter is a negative on the defensive end, but he’s still a good offensive center who put up 13.7 points and 9.8 […]

Tomas Satoransky Will Join Bulls

Point guard Tomas Satoransky will have a new home next season, joining the Chicago Bulls via a sign-and-trade with his former home, the Washington Wizards. For the time being, Satoransky will man the starting point guard spot while rookie Coby White comes off the bench. Satoransky is a capable player who started 54 games for […]

Seth Curry Agrees To Deal With Mavericks

Guard Seth Curry will be a Dallas Maverick again. After a one-year departure to Portland, where he played 74 games, scoring 7.9 points per contest while shooting 45 percent from three on 3.4 attempts per game, Curry is heading back to Dallas, where he started 42 games in the 2016-2017 season. Dallas looks a lot […]

Robin Lopez Agrees To Be Brother’s Backup

Free agent center Robin Lopez is heading to the Milwaukee Bucks, where he’ll serve as brother Brook’s primary backup. Lopez isn’t the player his brother is at this point, mainly due to the way he hasn’t adapted his offensive game to the modern NBA like Brook has, but he’s capable of putting up 10 points […]

Reggie Bullock Intends To Sign With Knicks

Small forward Reggie Bullock has agreed to a two-year deal to join the New York Knicks. While it’s hard to see how the team’s new glut of power forwards will fit together, slotting Bullock into the lineup will be much easier as he can contribute at the two and the three off the Knicks bench. […]

Mike Muscala Agrees To Deal With Thunder

Free agent power forward Mike Muscala has agreed to a deal to join the Oklahoma City Thunder. Muscala bounced around last season, opening the year in Philadelphia before a brief stop with the Clippers before being traded the next day to the Lakers. Muscala wasn’t exactly impressive in his limited minutes last year, averaging 7.0 […]

Mario Hezonja To Sign With Portland

The Portland Trail Blazers and free agent forward Mario Hezonja have agreed to a one-year minimum contract with a player option in the second season. Hezonja was the fifth overall pick in 2015 but has promptly become an afterthought in the league. He spent last year as a Knick, playing 58 games with 24 starts. […]

Ish Smith Agrees To Deal With Washington

With John Wall expected to miss most of the season and Tomas Satoransky heading to Chicago, the Washington Wizards had a hole to fill at point guard. They’ll fill it with free agent guard Ish Smith, who played 56 games off the bench for the Pistons last year, averaging 8.9 points per game and 3.6 […]
