John Collins Notches Season-High 16 Rebounds In Defeat

Atlanta Hawks power forward/center John Collins was tenacious on the glass during Friday’s loss to the Milwaukee Bucks, collecting a season-best 16 boards across 26 minutes. While he scuffled offensively to the tune of a 4-for-14 shooting outing, including going 1-for-6 from long range, he added three blocks and two assists to his nine points. […]

Trae Young Sustains Ankle Sprain, Ruled Out For Saturday

Atlanta Hawks point guard Trae Young collected 12 points in 15 minutes during Friday’s loss to the Milwaukee Bucks before spraining his right ankle, which ended his evening prematurely. Young needed to be helped to the locker room and has already been ruled out for Saturday’s matchup versus the Chicago Bulls. The short evening saw […]

Khris Middleton Collects Game-High 23 Points In 25 Minutes

Milwaukee Bucks shooting guard/small forward Khris Middleton led his team’s offense in the absence of Giannis Antetokounmpo, going for 23 points on 10-for-19 shooting during Friday’s win over the Atlanta Hawks. Middleton was needed for only 25 minutes due to the nature of the victory, although he did manage to pack his stat line with […]

Ersan Ilyasova Delivers Dominant Double-Double In Rare Start

Milwaukee Bucks power forward Ersan Ilyasova made his third start of the season during Friday’s win over the Atlanta Hawks, entering the starting five with Giannis Antetokounmpo ruled out. Ilyasova utilized the extended playing time and increased role to collect 18 points and a season-high 17 rebounds, the highest total he has accrued on the […]

Aaron Donald A Solid Start

Los Angeles Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald has come back to the pack a bit over the last five games due to him having just 11 total tackles and 4.5 sacks. He'll have a good matchup against the Arizona Cardinals this week that could be without starting quarterback Kyler Murray (hamstring). View Donald as a […]

Rams Defense A High-End Play

The Los Angeles Rams Defense is sixth in fantasy points over the last five games. They'll have a great matchup against the Arizona Cardinals that may be running backup quarterback Brett Hundley out there. The Rams will be a high-end defense to play this week.

Greg Zuerlein Has The Matchup

Los Angeles Rams kicker Greg Zuerlein hasn't had a productive month with a 5-for-8 line in field goals and 13-for-13 in extra points. The Arizona Cardinals are a great matchup, though, and "Greg The Leg" sneaks in as a low-end PK1.

Gerald Everett Could Sit Out

Los Angeles Rams tight end Gerald Everett (knee) has been rumored as an option to sit out of the season finale against the Arizona Cardinals with the Rams out of the playoffs. Either way, he's not a good start in fantasy.

Tyler Higbee A Top Option

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee has 35 catches for 438 yards and a touchdown in what has been a December to remember for him. Tight end Gerald Everett (knee) is rumored to be a candidate to sit out of the meaningless Week 17 affair with the Arizona Cardinals. Even if he doesn't, Higbee […]

Brandin Cooks Not A Safe Play

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Brandin Cooks has seen his role increase a bit the last two weeks. It hasn't been anything special, but he did score a touchdown last week. It's a numbers game with the Rams, and Cooks isn't high enough on the pecking order to start against the Arizona Cardinals.

Robert Woods A Solid WR2

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Robert Woods is sixth in fantasy points at the position in point-per-reception leagues the last five weeks. He has been really steady despite only one touchdown on the season. The Arizona Cardinals are a midrange matchup, and Woods is a solid WR2 to play.

Cooper Kupp A Steady WR2 Play

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp has touchdowns in four straight games. This has been his saving grace, though, because he has averaged five catches for 45.5 yards per contest. He had six grabs for 65 yards and a score earlier this season against the Arizona Cardinals. That's a safe prognostication this week as […]

Malcolm Brown A Possible Flex Play

Los Angeles Rams running back Malcolm Brown could wind up playing a big role in Week 17 against the Arizona Cardinals. Starting running back Todd Gurley has been rumored likely to sit out or not play much, and rookie running back Darrell Henderson (ankle) has been ruled out. Brown hasn't done much of anything the […]

Todd Gurley Too Risky

Los Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley has been mentioned as a player that could sit out in Week 17 as there is nothing to play for with the team eliminated from the playoffs. The arthritic condition of his knee clearly plagued him for most of the season, and he didn't even practice Friday. The […]

Jared Goff A Super-Risky Play

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff looks like a good play on paper this week, but there is no guarantee he plays the whole game. The team has been eliminated from playoff contention, and there's very little reason to risk their franchise quarterback unless they want him to surpass last year's career high in passing […]

Budda Baker Should Sit

Arizona Cardinals safety Budda Baker has fallen to 38th in fantasy points over the last five weeks. He was a must-start for much of the year, but he just hasn't produced anything but tackles. Those tackles have dwindled of late, and he's a sketchy start against the Los Angeles Rams.

Chandler Jones Worth LB1 Consideration

Arizona Cardinals linebacker Chandler Jones is coming off his second four-sack performance of the season last week. The explosion helped vault him to seventh in fantasy points at the position the last five weeks. The Los Angeles Rams have allowed only five sacks in five weeks, but they are rumored to be resting some starters. […]

Zane Gonzalez Should Sit Out

Arizona Cardinals kicker Zane Gonzalez is 30th in fantasy points the last five weeks after a midseason binge to the top 10. The offense isn't clicking consistently enough to warrant the start against the Los Angeles Rams.

Christian Kirk Not A Great Flex Option

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Christian Kirk has had an up-and-down season. Last week was a downer as he didn't catch a pass. The last time he faced the Los Angeles Rams, he had just three catches for 23 yards. Also, quarterback Kyler Murray (hamstring) is very questionable this weekend. There is too much bad mojo […]

Larry Fitzgerald Worth The Flex Play

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald could be suiting up for his final game as a professional and has been productive at 36 years of age. His numbers don't have a lot of pizzazz, but his 71 catches have kept him serviceable in point-per-reception formats. The Los Angeles Rams are a midrange matchup likely to […]

David Johnson Should Sit In Week 17

Arizona Cardinals running back David Johnson has just 17 touches in the last four games as he has fallen out of favor once the team acquired running back Kenyan Drake. He's not worth starting against the Los Angeles Rams, and there's no point in handcuffing him to Drake any longer. Look for Johnson, who just […]

Kenyan Drake An RB1 In The Finale

Arizona Cardinals running back Kenyan Drake might be one of the best starts at running back in Week 17. His quarterback, Kyler Murray (hamstring), is a game-time decision in what is a meaningless game in a season he has been among the most hit quarterbacks. The Cards will have to lean on Drake, who had […]

Enes Kanter, Daniel Theis Combine For 23 Points During Victory

Neither Enes Kanter nor Daniel Theis has taken command of the Boston Celtics’ center slot this season, but the duo finished with a combined 23 points and 15 rebounds during Friday’s win over the Cleveland Cavaliers. The virtual timeshare that has been employed by head coach Brad Stevens has zapped both men of their fantasy […]

Kevin Porter Jr. Collects 16 Points Off Bench

Cleveland Cavaliers shooting guard/small forward Kevin Porter Jr. finished with 16 points during Friday’s loss to the Boston Celtics, giving him back-to-back games scoring in double figures for the first time in his career. Porter shot 5-for-9 overall, including knocking down one triple, his seventh straight game with exactly one make from long range. After […]

Kevin Love Sinks Season-High Six Triples In 30-Point Effort

Cleveland Cavaliers power forward/center Kevin Love found his groove from long range during Friday’s loss to the Boston Celtics, setting a new season high with six made threes. He utilized his hot shooting to tie his season high in scoring with 30 points, shooting 10-for-16 overall and adding in seven rebounds and four assists without […]

Jayson Tatum Ties Career High With Five Made Triples

Boston Celtics small/power forward Jayson Tatum reached the 30-point mark for the fourth time this season during Friday’s win over the Cleveland Cavaliers, knocking down five threes en route to his impressive scoring output. Tatum finished 11-for-20 from the field overall, having taken at least 17 shots in each of the team’s past six games […]

Jaylen Brown Drops Career-High 34 Points During Win

Boston Celtics shooting guard/small forward Jaylen Brown had the best scoring performance of his young career during Friday’s victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers, utilizing a 13-for-20 shooting outing to log a career-best 34 points in just 29 minutes. Brown knocked down five triples for the second consecutive contest, also adding in nine rebounds and two […]

Rangers The Front-Runners For Nicholas Castellanos

The Texas Rangers appear to be the front-runners to sign outfielder Nicholas Castellanos. The Rangers missed out on signing third baseman Anthony Rendon. The Giants, Reds and Cubs are still in the mix on Castellanos. After adding Corey Kluber, Jordan Lyles and Kyle Gibson to the starting rotation, Texas is now looking for an impact […]

Eli Manning Likely To Retire

New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning will likely retire at the end of this season rather than hold the clipboard again for Daniel Jones. If Manning wants to continue playing, he'll have to do so with another team in 2020, as he's set to become a free agent after this season. If this is indeed […]

Robby Anderson May Be Too Expensive For Jets

New York Jets wide receiver Robby Anderson wants to stay with the team after the 2019 season, but he may have priced himself out of New York's plans after playing much better in recent weeks. Anderson is also going to demand more than $10 million per season over the long term. The fourth-year wideout has […]
