Jimmy Butler Goes Through Shootaround

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (illness) was able to participate in Friday's shootaround. Butler has been battling an illness for over a week now, but is expected to play against the Golden State Warriors on Friday. Tyler Herro, Kendrick Nunn, and Duncan Robinson would lose minutes with Butler back in action on Friday. Fantasy owners […]

Clint Capela is Doubtful Against Hawks

Houston Rockets center Clint Capela (illness) is listed as doubtful for Saturday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. He missed Wednesday's contest against the Heat and is likely going to sit out again here. Tyson Chandler is in line for another start, but he's not worth adding in fantasy leagues or using in DFS contests.

Spencer Dinwiddie Records 32 Points, 11 Assists In Victory

Brooklyn Nets guard Spencer Dinwiddie recorded an impressive double-double in Friday's 112-107 victory, finishing with 32 points, 11 assists, five rebounds, two steals and two blocks in 35 minutes. The 26-year-old was very efficient shooting the ball, going 10-for-19 from the field, 6-for-8 from three-point range, and 6-for-6 from the line — while tying his […]

Danuel House is Doubtful for Saturday

Houston Rockets forward Danuel House (illness) is listed as doubtful for Saturday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. He's coming off a 23 point game on Wednesday, but is feeling under the weather here. Ben McLemore would likely start, while Austin Rivers gets extended minutes as well, assuming House sits out Saturday.

DeAndre Hopkins A Must-Start Against Patriots

Houston Texans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins has caught either 80 yards or a touchdown in five consecutive games and is one of the best wideouts in the NFL. The New England Patriots Defense allows the fewest fantasy points per game to opposing wide receivers. Something has to give this week, and while it's likely to […]

Tomas Satoransky Could Sit Versus Blazers

Chicago Bulls guard Tomas Satoransky (toe) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He was originally listed as probable, but head coach Jim Boylen said Satoransky is a game time decision for this one. Kris Dunn, Coby White, and Ryan Arcidiacono would be asked to split up the guard minutes […]

Duke Johnson Has Little Upside In Week 13

Houston Texans running back Duke Johnson has been a non-factor over the past couple of games, and while the game script could favor him over starting running back Carlos Hyde in Week 13 against the Patriots, New England's defense is too good for you to trust Johnson in your fantasy lineup. He's had just 12 […]

Keenan Allen In For Another Rough Outing

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Keenan Allen is expected to have his hands full once again when he faces Denver and Chris Harris Jr. on Sunday. Allen was shut down by Harris in October, catching four passes for just 18 yards. Harris has subsequently already told the media that he's planning on shadowing Allen once […]

Mike Williams Will Likely Get Many Targets

Los Angeles Chargers wide receiver Mike Williams is set to square off against the Denver Broncos once again this Sunday, and he'll likely be the team's de facto No. 1 receiver once again. With actual No. 1 wide receiver Keenan Allen being shadowed by Chris Harris Jr. all day, Williams will probably be the team's […]

Carlos Hyde Is Risky Week 13 Start

Houston Texans running back Carlos Hyde has just one touchdown in his last five games, and there's no reason to think he finds the end zone on Sunday against a Patriots Defense that's allowed just one rushing score to an opposing running back all year. Consider Hyde an extremely risky play this week, someone whose […]

Deshaun Watson Has Terrible Week 13 Matchup

While Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson is a weekly QB1 option, you might be tempted to sit him on Sunday when the Texans face the league's best defense, the New England Patriots. No team allows fewer fantasy points per game to opposing passers, and on the year QBs have thrown four touchdowns and 20 interceptions […]

Drew Lock Coming Off Injured Reserve

Denver Broncos head coach Vic Fangio said that rookie quarterback Drew Lock (thumb) will be activated from Injured Reserve before Sunday's game against the Chargers, but "we haven't decided yet" if Lock will start over Brandon Allen. All signs are pointing to Lock starting his first NFL game after he saw most of the first-team […]

Jordan Scarlett Placed On Injured Reserve

The Carolina Panthers placed rookie running back Jordan Scarlett (knee) on Injured Reserve on Friday and signed offensive lineman Brad Lundblade to the active roster from the practice squad in a corresponding move. Scarlett, a fifth-round pick, only had four carries for nine yards on Oct. 27 against the 49ers for his only action in […]

Alshon Jeffery, Nelson Agholor Will Play Against Dolphins

Philadelphia Eagles wide receivers Alshon Jeffery (ankle) and Nelson Agholor (knee) both practiced in full on Friday and were taken off the final injury report for Week 13 against the Dolphins. It's great news for quarterback Carson Wentz in an excellent matchup. The matchup couldn't be any nicer for both Jeffery and Agholor, but both […]

Zach Ertz, Jordan Howard Questionable

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Zach Ertz (hamstring) and running back Jordan Howard (shoulder) were both limited in practice on Friday and are questionable for Week 13 against the Dolphins. There is optimism that Ertz will suit up after he practiced on Friday, but you'll need to check back for Sunday morning's inactives. Ertz continues to […]

Jayson Tatum Scores Team-High 26 Points In Loss

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum finished with 26 points, nine rebounds, four steals and six turnovers on 10-for-19 shooting from the field and 4-for-8 from three-point range in Friday's 112-107 loss to the Nets. The 21-year-old extended his double-digit scoring streak to nine consecutive games, while the point total and field goals made were tied […]

Odell Beckham Jr. Not On Final Injury Report

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (groin) was limited in practice all week but was removed from the final injury report for Week 13 against the Steelers. Beckham wasn't really in danger of missing this game, so you can leave him in your lineups as a solid WR2. OBJ had four catches (10 targets) […]

James Conner Doubtful For Week 13

Pittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner (shoulder) is doubtful to play in Week 13 against the Browns. Conner just isn't ready to return to the team's backfield, but Week 14 is a realistic target at this point. Continue to leave him on your bench. Pittsburgh's offense is a shell of its former self with wide […]

JuJu Smith-Schuster Ruled Out Against Browns

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (concussion, knee) has been ruled out for Week 13 against the Browns. Smith-Schuster's knee injury is what is keeping him out of this weekend's game, and he might not be a lock to return in Week 14. He's been one of the biggest wide receiver busts in 2019. James […]

Chris Conley A Deep League Option

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Chris Conley has been seeing a good number of targets lately, though he's struggled to do much with those targets over the past few weeks. Still, he's worth a look in deep leagues in Week 13 against one of the NFL's worst pass defenses, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Don't go into […]

Jets Defense A Top Streaming Option This Week

The New York Jets Defense has been on fire in recent weeks and will look to stay hot in a tasty matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals. The Jets defense has scored a touchdown in two of their past three games and had six sacks in the other game in that span. Let by star safety […]

Derrick Henry On Track To Play

Tennessee Titans head coach Mike Vrabel said that running back Derrick Henry (hamstring) has gotten the work that he needs this week and is on track to play in Week 13 against the Colts. Henry should suit up this Sunday and is a must-start RB1 after going for over 100 yards in back-to-back games while […]

No Structural Damage For Amari Cooper

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Amari Cooper's (knee) MRI exam on his left knee showed no structural damage, according to a source. Cooper took a hit to his knee in the fourth quarter of the Thanksgiving Day loss to the Bills but was able to return to the game. He was limping noticeably after the game, […]

D.J. Chark Has Upside In Week 13

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver D.J. Chark has been the big-play guy for the Jags this year, and while he was held to five catches for 38 yards against the Titans, he should still be treated as a WR2 against the Buccaneers in Week 13. Tampa has allowed the second-most touchdown receptions to opposing wide receivers […]

Tyreek Hill Will Be Available Against Raiders

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill (hamstring) will be available for Week 13 against the Raiders after leaving early in the Week 11 win over the Chargers. Luckily for Hill and his fantasy owners, he had the Week 12 bye to heal up. The speedster missed the first meeting with the Raiders earlier this […]

Ryan Griffin Has A Good Matchup Sunday

New York Jets tight end Ryan Griffin has been a big part of the Jets improved offense in recent weeks and will try and keep the good times rolling in Cincinnati this Sunday. Griffin got off to a slow start this year with questions about when starter Chris Herndon (suspension, hamstring) would return, but now […]

Dede Westbrook Is On The Upswing

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Dede Westbrook had his most receptions of the year in Week 12, and with Nick Foles back at quarterback he should continue to see his usage increase. The Buccaneers struggle against the pass, so feel comfortable deploying Westbrook as a PPR flex option this week. He's still not going to be […]

Damien Williams Ruled Out

Kansas City Chiefs running back Damien Williams (ribs) has been ruled out for Week 13 against the Raiders. The backfield will feature LeSean McCoy, Darrel Williams and maybe Darwin Thompson against Oakland. With Shady and Williams potentially splitting touches down the middle, both will be on the RB2/3 borderline, with McCoy being the more attractive […]

Leonard Fournette Has Surprisingly Tough Matchup

You wouldn't usually associate Tampa Bay Buccaneers Defense and good together, but this season the Bucs have allowed the third-fewest PPR points to opposing running backs. That puts Jacksonville Jaguars running back Leonard Fournette in a tough spot on Sunday. His volume should allow him to finish with solid numbers and his newfound usage as a […]

Demaryius Thomas An Uninspiring Start Despite Good Matchup

New York Jets wide receiver Demaryius Thomas will look to find the end zone for the first time this season Sunday when the Jets visit Cincinnati. Thomas has been usable at times in fantasy this season, but as the Jets offense has gotten going in recent weeks, Thomas has gotten less involved. He has just […]
