New York Knicks power forward/center Julius Randle finished Wednesday’s loss to the Memphis Grizzlies with 16 points, 14 rebounds and six assists, giving him another stuffed stat sheet, which has become par for the course in January.

Victor Oladipo Forces Overtime, Logs Nine Points In Season Debut

Indiana Pacers shooting guard Victor Oladipo took the floor as a reserve for Wednesday’s victory over the Chicago Bulls with his return ultimately making the difference in the win column.

Reds Close To Landing Pedro Strop

The Cincinnati Reds are close to reaching an agreement with relief pitcher Pedro Strop, according to a source. Despite a poor 4.97 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and 10 saves in 50 relief outings for the Cubbies last season, Strop is one of the better relief arms available at this stage of the offseason. The 34-year-old Dominican […]

Browns Hiring Alex Van Pelt As Offensive Coordinator

The Cleveland Browns are hiring former NFL quarterback and long-time quarterbacks coach Alex Van Pelt as their next offensive coordinator on Wednesday, according to a league source.

Nick Senzel Not Expected To Be Traded

Cincinnati Reds president of baseball operations Dick Williams said that he expects outfielder Nick Senzel to remain with the team for the 2020 season. "I like what he brings to our club. He’s one of our own. He’s an impact, young offensive player. They don’t come along very often. The flexibility he brings to the […]

Xander Schauffele Could Be This Week's X-Factor

Xander Schauffele's missed cut at the Farmers Insurance Open has not only reduced his anticipated price for the Waste Management Open but has probably also decreased his ownership percentage. Schauffele will still have his fair share of support, so we don't want to intimate the idea of a sub-10 percent golfer, but the American makes […]

The Curious Case Of Jordan Spieth

Was Jordan Spieth's performance at Torrey Pines last weekend better? It is difficult to say. Driving accuracy remained an issue for the now 51st-ranked golfer in the world, struggling throughout the event by only hitting 44.6 percent of fairways. We find it moderately encouraging that Spieth was able to make the cut at a venue […]

Andre Drummond Available Wednesday Against Brooklyn

Detroit Pistons center Andre Drummond (wrist) is expected to play Wednesday night against the Brooklyn Nets. Drummond was questionable with a left wrist sprain, but should be fine with his normal workload. His play should not be affected too much either as this is his non-shooting hand. The Nets are the 12th-ranked defense against centers […]

Justin Thomas Will Attempt To Get Back On Track in Arizona

A missed cut at the Sony Open earlier this month was a slight misstep from Justin Thomas, but the American is back in action this weekend at the Waste Management Open as one of the favorites to take down the title. Thomas has been erratic in his five attempts at TPC Scottsdale, missing two cuts […]

Jon Rahm Looks To Keep It Going In The Desert

Scorching form doesn't even begin to describe Jon Rahm's current run. The Spaniard has registered five consecutive top-10 results, which includes two victories in Spain and Dubai, as well as two second-place results at the Hero World Challenge and last week's Farmers Insurance Open. Since last year's Masters, Rahm has missed three cuts in 18 […]

Tevin Coleman Limited In Practice

San Francisco 49ers running back Tevin Coleman (shoulder), along with linebacker Kwon Alexander (pectoral) and safety Jaquiski Tartt (ribs), were limited in practice on Wednesday. All three players should be active in the Super Bowl against the Chiefs, but it remains to be seen how much they will play. Coleman had only six carries for […]

Travis Kelce, Chris Jones Practice In Full

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce (knee) and defensive tackle Chris Jones (calf) both practiced in full on Wednesday.

He […]

Marquese Chriss Held Out of Wednesday's Practice

Golden State Warriors center Marquese Chriss was held out of Wednesday's practice. He's on a two-way deal with the organization, so he can only spend 45 days with the team. Practice days are counted against him, so fantasy owners shouldn't be alarmed if Chriss misses practices. Chriss has taken over as the starting center with […]

Andre Drummond is Questionable Against Nets

Detroit Pistons center Andre Drummond (wrist) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He's dealing with a left wrist sprain, but honestly it wouldn't be surprising to see him sit this one out. Fantasy owners will have a better idea closer to tip-off. Thon Maker, Markieff Morris, and Christian Wood would […]

Jayson Tatum is Questionable Against Warriors

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum (groin) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Golden State Warriors. Tatum has been sidelined the last week due to a groin issue. Head coach Brad Stevens believes that Tatum should be able to return within the next few games. Grant Williams and Semi Ojeleye will be asked […]
