DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/4/20): NBA DFS Lineups

After what seemed like an eternity, we are finally in the month of February which brings the NBA trade deadline. Around this time of year, teams become buyers and sellers which leads to players being kept out in order to not hurt their trade value due to injury. Although most of these aren't linked to […]

FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (2/4/20): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

Welcome to NBA Tuesday night. We have just four games on the board with a ton of different options to pay up for. We're looking at Russell Westbrook being questionable and a ton of other injuries to pay attention to. While it may not be the biggest slate we've seen, ownership should be spread out […]

Cubs Considering Jason Kipnis

The Chicago Cubs have been in contact with second baseman Jason Kipnis, who is a Chicago native. The Cubs may have an opening at second base this season, so Kipnis would make sense, although he might be better off as a platoon guy after slugging .446 against right-handers last year with the Indians compared to […]

Kieffer Bellows To Make NHL Debut On Tuesday

New York Islanders forward Kieffer Bellows will suit up for his National Hockey League debut on Tuesday versus the Dallas Stars. The 21-year-old, who was the 19th overall pick in the 2016 NHL Entry Draft, will skate on the Islanders' third line alongside center Derick Brassard. After a very slow start in the AHL this […]

Paul Casey Has Great History At Pebble Beach

Paul Casey is in the field for the upcoming AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am. Casey doesn't have an extensive course history at Pebble Beach, but has been sharp in two starts in this event, recording a runner-up finish last year and a T8 in 2018. The Englishman has only played twice this year, logging top-25 finishes […]

Frederik Andersen Day-To-Day With Neck Injury

Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Frederik Andersen has been listed as day-to-day after sustaining a neck injury in the opening frame of his team's 5-3 loss to the Florida Panthers on Monday. The 30-year-old departed the contest with 1:36 remaining in the first period following a collision with Panthers forward Frank Vatrano. In addition to not […]

Panthers Re-Sign Reggie Bonnafon

The Carolina Panthers signed running back Reggie Bonnafon to a one-year extension on Tuesday. Bonnafon was the No. 2 behind workhorse Christian McCaffrey in 2019, so he only saw 16 carries for 116 yards and one touchdown over a full season in 2019. He averaged a healthy 7.3 yards per carry, though, and also added […]

Wilmer Flores Heading To San Francisco

The San Francisco Giants agreed to a multi-year deal with infielder Wilmer Flores on Tuesday, according to sources familiar with the deal. Flores hit .317/.361/.487 with the Diamondbacks in 2019 and could play either second base or a utility role for the Giants in 2020. He'll be competing with the likes of Mauricio Dubon, Donovan […]

Rangers Sign Greg Bird

The Texas Rangers signed first baseman Greg Bird to a minor league deal on Tuesday. The deal will include an invite to spring training. If Bird can manage to stay healthy -- he's played in only 92 games the last two seasons with the Yankees combined due to multiple injuries -- he should have a […]

Anthony Davis, Alex Caruso Are Probable for Tuesday

Los Angeles Lakers forward Anthony Davis (shoulder) and guard Alex Caruso (neck) are listed as probable for Tuesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Davis has been dealing with minor shoulder soreness, but was able to play in both games over the weekend. Caruso dropped 13 points during Saturday's game and is showing he has […]

Ty Jerome, Tyler Johnson Ruled Out for Wednesday

Phoenix Suns guards Ty Jerome (calf) and Tyler Johnson (knee) have been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. This marks the third game in a row that Jerome has missed due to a calf issue. He can be left on the waiver wire for now, but could see more minutes later in […]

Astros Make Offer To Hunter Pence

The Houston Astros have made an offer to outfielder Hunter Pence, according to MLB sources. Pence was drafted by Houston and played for them from 2007 to 2011. He's a four-time All-Star, including in 2019 with the Rangers when he hit .297 with 18 home runs and 59 RBI in a resurgent season. The 36-year-old […]

Andrew Whitworth Expected To Return In 2020

Los Angeles Rams left tackle Andrew Whitworth (ankle) will put off retirement and is expected to return for the 2020 season, according to sources. Whitworth underwent surgery to clean out his ankle and is feeling great and wants to keep playing at 38 years old. Given LA's struggles on the offensive line last year, he's […]

Derrick Henry Sets His Asking Price

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry, who will hit the free-agent market in March, revealed what he is looking for if the Titans don't re-sign him. “Zeke numbers is the floor,” Henry said on “The Rich Eisen Show” about his asking price. Ezekiel Elliott signed a six-year, $90 million contract extension that included $50 million […]

Jamal Murray Could Return Against Blazers

Denver Nuggets guard Jamal Murray (ankle) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He has missed each of the last 10 games due to an ankle injury. This is the first time since he suffered his injury that he's been listed as questionable instead of being ruled out. Monte Morris […]

Sean Rodriguez Signs With Marlins

The Miami Marlins agreed to a minor league deal with infielder Sean Rodriguez on Tuesday, according to a source. The 34-year-old played every position in 2019 for the Phillies except catcher, and he even threw 1 1/3 scoreless innings on the mound. That's about where the good ended for S-Rod, though, as he hit only […]

Ricky Rubio Will Play on Wednesday

Phoenix Suns guard Ricky Rubio (ankle) was able to get back in the starting five for Monday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He didn't play in Sunday's contest and sat out the end of Monday's game due to soreness in his right ankle. It sounds like Rubio will be good to go for Wednesday's game […]

Jabari Parker is Out At Least One More Week

Atlanta Hawks forward Jabari Parker (shoulder) has progressed to non-contact work, but will miss at least one more week of action. He hasn't played since suffering a right shoulder impingement in early January. His fantasy value has taken a significant dip with John Collins back in the rotation. Bruno Fernando and Vince Carter should continue […]

Denzel Valentine Doesn't Practice on Tuesday

Chicago Bulls forward Denzel Valentine (hamstring) was unable to suit up for Tuesday's practice. He played 14 minutes off the bench on Sunday, but hasn't been much of a fantasy asset this season. There have been rumors that the Bulls are trying to trade Valentine, but it's doubtful that he'll gain much value with a […]

Kris Dunn is Sidelined for At Least Two Weeks

Chicago Bulls guard Kris Dunn (knee) will be shut down for the next two weeks after suffering an injury during Friday's game. An MRI confirmed a collateral ligament sprain, so Dunn will be shut down and re-evaluated after two weeks. He could be sidelined for longer, so fantasy owners shouldn't expect to see him right […]

PJ Washington is Questionable Against Houston

Charlotte Hornets forward PJ Washington (ankle) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Houston Rockets. He has missed each of the last two games due to a right ankle sprain. The Hornets have been using a committee approach to fill the void while Washington is out. Marvin Williams and Miles Bridges are the […]

Marc Gasol Could Be Out Until All-Star Break

Toronto Raptors center Marc Gasol (hamstring) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Indiana Pacers. The Raptors may elect to hold out Gasol until after the All-Star break, according to head coach Nick Nurse. He re-aggravated his left hamstring last week, so he'll at least sit out of Wednesday's contest. Serge Ibaka is […]

T.J. Warren Has Been Ruled Out for Wednesday

Indiana Pacers forward T.J. Warren (head) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He left Saturday's game after hitting his head on Myles Turner's leg and suffered a concussion. He didn't play on Monday and will need to pass the league's concussion protocol before being allowed back on the court. Justin […]

Victor Oladipo Will See Increased Playing Time

Indiana Pacers guard Victor Oladipo is going to see an increased workload going forward. The medical staff and front office decided after Tuesday's practice that Oladipo should be seeing more minutes on the court. It sounds like he'll be playing 28 minutes now, so fantasy owners should see a slight increase in value. It's going […]

Khem Birch Could Sit Out on Wednesday

Orlando Magic forward Khem Birch (back) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Boston Celtics. He missed Monday's contest due to lower back tightness, so we'll see if he's feeling well enough to suit up on Wednesday. Wesley Iwundu started in his absence, but wasn't too impressive during his time on the court. […]

Should We Buy Back Into Blake Snell?

Author note: Blake Snell dealt with an elbow issue ad received a cortisone shot. That lead to his ADP falling, and for good reason, but he returned to the mound since and now with the start of the season delayed, he should be ready for the start of the season.  Early in 2018, I was […]

Greg Olsen To Visit With Seahawks

The Seattle Seahawks are interested in former Carolina Panthers tight end Greg Olsen, according to a source. The veteran tight end will take a visit to Seattle. That will be after he visits with the Bills and Redskins this week. From a fantasy perspective, Olsen going to the Seahawks and catching passes from quarterback Russell […]

Aleksander Barkov Listed As Day-To-Day

Florida Panthers center Aleksander Barkov has been marked as day-to-day after suffering a lower-body injury in a 4-0 loss to the Montreal Canadiens on Saturday. Despite missing Florida's game versus the Maple Leafs on Monday, Barkov doesn't appear to be out long-term - something that could cripple both the Panthers and his fantasy owners. The […]

Jamie Benn Logs Two Assists In Monday's Victory

Dallas Stars forward Jamie Benn posted a pair of assists in his team's 5-3 road victory over the New York Rangers on Monday. The Stars captain found the scoresheet twice within 16 seconds in the first period, contributing two power-play helpers on two deft passing displays. It's been a down year in terms of Benn's […]
