Aaron Gordon Goes Through Light Practice

Orlando Magic forward Aaron Gordon (Achilles) was able to get through a light practice on Tuesday. He missed Monday's game due to soreness in his left Achilles. The Magic are going to be careful, but have listed Gordon as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Washington Wizards. Wesley Iwundu started for Gordon on Monday, but […]

Luka Doncic is Upgraded to Probable for Tuesday

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (back, wrist) has been upgraded to probable for Tuesday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He fell awkwardly during Sunday's game, but it appears he's going to be fine for Tuesday. Fantasy owners should feel safe about plugging Doncic into their lineups here. He shouldn't be limited at all for […]

Gary Harris is Downgraded to Questionable

Denver Nuggets guard Gary Harris (shin) has been downgraded to questionable for Tuesday's game against the Houston Rockets. He was upgraded to probable on Monday, but we'll wait and see how he's feeling closer to tip-off. Michael Porter Jr. played fantastic in the absence of Harris on Sunday. He'd be worth a look as a […]

Frank Ntilikina Might Sit Out on Wednesday

New York Knicks guard Frank Ntilikina (groin) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He was able to play 17 minutes on Saturday, but continues to deal with a nagging groin issue. Dennis Smith Jr. (oblique) is questionable for Wednesday as well. Elfrid Payton could be looking at heavy minutes […]

Dennis Smith Jr. is Questionable Against Blazers

New York Knicks guard Dennis Smith Jr. (oblique) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He's missed each of the last two games due to a left oblique strain. There should be more information after Wednesday's shootaround. Elfrid Payton could be looking at heavy minutes with Frank Ntilikina (groin) questionable […]

Paul Millsap Might Sit Out on Tuesday

Denver Nuggets forward Paul Millsap (knee) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Houston Rockets. He's missed the last two games due to a left knee issue. Jerami Grant and Mason Plumlee would see more minutes if Millsap sits out. Grant is the better fantasy option of the two, but fantasy owners should […]

Kevin Knox is Probable for Wednesday

New York Knicks forward Kevin Knox (illness) is listed as probable for Wednesday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He missed Monday's practice due to an illness, but it appears he'll be fine for this contest. He hasn't been much of a fantasy option this season, but could have some deep league value.

Marvin Bagley Will Sit Out on Tuesday

Sacramento Kings forward Marvin Bagley (foot) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. The Kings are going to be cautious with their young forward, so Bagley could be looking at a few more games sidelined. Nemanja Bjelica and Richaun Holmes will see more playing time coming their way. Both players […]

Landry Shamet Will Start on Tuesday

Los Angeles Clippers guard Landry Shamet will move into the starting five for Tuesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He's been up and down this season, but could be worth a look as a streaming option with the Clippers thin on Tuesday. Patrick Beverley (wrist) has been ruled out and Lou Williams (personal) is unavailable. […]

Boston Bruins left wing Brad Marchand became the 13th player this season to reach the 20-goal mark, starting the scoring with a power-play marker in Tuesday's 3-2 shootout loss to New Jersey. Joakim Nordstrom put the Bruins two goals up, but they couldn't keep their winning streak going. Marchand had a lot of success in […]

Jesper Bratt Keeps Good Form Going With Eighth Goal

New Jersey Devils left wing Jesper Bratt continued his recent good form with his eighth goal of the season in Tuesday's 3-2 shootout win over Boston. The Devils found themselves two goals down, but Blake Coleman started the comeback and Bratt took the game past regulation in the third period. Nico Hischier and P.K. Subban […]

Evgeny Kuznetsov Scores Two Goals In Tuesday's Loss

Washington Capitals center Evgeny Kuznetsov scored two goals in Tuesday's 4-3 loss to the Islanders, recording three shots in total and a minus-one rating.

Casey Cizikas Bags Pair Of Goals Against Washington

New York Islanders center Casey Cizikas finished off 2019 with a two-goal effort in Tuesday's 4-3 win over Washington. Brock Nelson and Tom Kuhnhackl also scored for the Isles, who have ended a bad run with back-to-back road wins. Cizikas is not known for offensive production, but he has picked up some form lately with […]

Horse For The Course: PGA DFS (DraftKings) - Sentry Tournament of Champions

Hello again friends and thanks for joining me here at RotoBaller as we slide into 2020! After a brief (but long feeling) break from golf, we're ready to gear up for the new season. As is tradition, the brand new golf year will get kicked off in Hawaii this week. I'd like to take a […]

Torn Meniscus Sidelines Joonas Korpisalo for Columbus

Columbus Blue Jackets goaltender Joonas Korpisalo has been diagnosed with a torn meniscus in his right knee and underwent surgery to repair it on Monday. He is expected to miss four to six weeks, leaving Elvis Merzlikins as the de facto starter until his return. Columbus is likely in line for a drop-off in net […]

Jake Guentzel to Miss Remainder of Regular Season

Pittsburgh Penguins forward Jake Guentzel underwent shoulder surgery after being injured in Monday night's game. His recovery timeline is estimated to be four to six months, leaving little doubt as to whether he will be able to return this regular season. Guentzel was on pace for a career year with 43 points in 39 games, […]

Mark Ingram, Mark Andrews Not Practicing Tuesday

Baltimore Ravens running back Mark Ingram (calf) and tight ends Mark Andrews (ankle) and Hayden Hurst were not seen at practice on Tuesday. The Ravens have a first-round bye after locking up the No. 1 seed in the AFC, so they will not play this weekend. Expect them to rest Ingram, Andrews and all the […]

Bears Part Ways With Offensive Coordinator

The Chicago Bears dismissed offensive coordinator Mark Helfrich, tight ends coach Kevin Gilbride, offensive line coach Harry Hiestand and assistant special teams coach Brock Olivo on Tuesday. With quarterback Mitch Trubisky taking a step backwards in 2020, Helfrich gets the axe. The Bears finished with 296.8 yards per game (fourth worst) and 17.5 points per […]

Trey Burton, Roquan Smith Undergo Surgeries

Chicago Bears general manager Ryan Pace revealed on Tuesday that tight end Trey Burton (hip) and linebacker Roquan Smith (pectoral) recently underwent surgeries. Burton played in just eight games this year and was placed on Injured Reserve with a calf injury. He's caught only 68 passes with six touchdowns (all in 2018) in his two […]

Jets Will Listen To Le'Veon Bell Offers This Offseason

New York Jets general manager Joe Douglas said that the team will listen to trade offers for running back Le'Veon Bell this offseason if other teams come calling. Head coach Adam Gase has made it crystal clear that he wasn't on board with the team signing Bell before the 2019 season, so a trade could […]

Kevin Na Is A Risky DFS Proposition

Kevin Na is currently scheduled to tee it up in the Sentry Tournament of Champions. The mercurial Na is always tough to figure out with scheduling and has been known to withdraw from tournaments at the last minute. When the veteran did tee it up in 2019, he played very well. Na logged two wins […]

Joaquin Niemann Set To Make Sentry TOC Debut

Joaquin Niemann is set to make his Sentry Tournament of Champions debut this week. Niemann qualified for the winners-only event with a victory at A Military Tribute At The Greenbrier in September. The 21-year-old is quickly proving himself to be an explosive talent. He's a tremendous ball striker that finished 2019 ranked 23rd on the […]

Miles Sanders Has Low-Grade Ankle Sprain

Philadelphia Eagles rookie running back Miles Sanders' (ankle) MRI exam showed a low-grade ankle sprain, according to a source. Head coach Doug Pederson said that Sanders is "going to be OK," but inflammation is the issue early in the week. Sanders seems to have a good chance of playing in the wild-card game on Sunday […]

Matt Kuchar Hopes To Find Form In Hawaii

Matt Kuchar is scheduled to tee it up in the Sentry Tournament of Champions. Kuchar heads to Hawaii in scuffling form and has failed to record a top-10 finish since June. The veteran came out firing in the early portion of last season by emerging victorious at the Sony Open, but his play deteriorated as […]

Twins To Sign Rich Hill, Homer Bailey

The Minnesota Twins are signing starting pitchers Rich Hill and Homer Bailey to undisclosed one-year deals on Tuesday, according to a source. Hill is the more attractive piece here, but he isn't expected to be ready for the start of the 2020 season after having left elbow surgery in October. Even though he'll turn 40 […]

Anthony Miller Will Undergo Surgery

Chicago Bears general manager Ryan Pace announced on Tuesday that wide receiver Anthony Miller (shoulder) will need surgery on his left shoulder, and it will keep him out until training camp next year. Miller had surgery on the same shoulder last January as well, so it's something to watch moving forward. The second-round pick in […]

Bears Plan For Mitch Trubisky To Start In 2020

Chicago Bears general manager Ryan Pace announced that the team's plan is for quarterback Mitch Trubisky to be the starting QB in 2020. The Bears will likely look for a signal-caller in next year's draft, but they have no choice really but to give Trubisky one last shot to prove that he's a franchise quarterback. […]

Derrick Rose Scores 20-Plus Points For Second Straight Game

Detroit Pistons guard Derrick Rose scored 20 points with four assists, a triple, a steal, and a block in a 104-81 loss to the Utah Jazz. Rose has been great this year, averaging his highest field goal percentage and assist numbers since the early Chicago Bulls days. He's a solid add off the waiver wire […]

Andre Drummond Fills Up Box Score In Win

Detroit Pistons center Andre Drummond tallied 15 points, 13 rebounds, five steals, three assists, and three blocks in a 104-81 loss to the Utah Jazz. Drummond shot just 31.3 percent from the field and had a season-high seven turnovers, though he compensated for it by stuffing the stat sheet. Thanks to elite rebounding and defense, […]
