Brandon Ingram Remains Sidelined Thursday

New Orleans Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram (knee) will not play Thursday night against the Los Angeles Clippers. Ingram was being treated as a true game-time decision, so it appears he will return sooner rather than later. With Ingram, Josh Hart (knee) and Lonzo Ball (groin) all out Thursday, Kenrich Williams and J.J. Redick will get […]

FanDuel, DraftKings NHL DFS Lineup Picks (11/14/19): Daily Fantasy Hockey Advice

Thursday features eight games in all with a spotlight on games like Florida and Winnipeg, Dallas and Vancouver, plus even New York and Tampa Bay. Remember, when looking around for plays, an over/under of 6 dictates offense, but an over/under of 5 or sometimes 5.5 tilts towards the goalies. There are several games at 6.5, […]

Raheem Mostert, Dante Pettis Limited Thursday

San Francisco 49ers running back Raheem Mostert (knee) and wide receiver Dante Pettis (back) were both limited in practice on Thursday. Mostert has been limited all week but should play and serve as Tevin Coleman's backup in Week 11 against the Cardinals with Matt Breida expected to miss one to two weeks. Mostert will have […]

David Montgomery, Trey Burton Miss Practice Thursday

Chicago Bears rookie running back David Montgomery (ankle) and tight ends Trey Burton (calf) and Adam Shaheen (foot) missed practice on Thursday. Montgomery rolled his ankle in practice on Wednesday and could wind up as questionable for Sunday night against the Rams. That will obviously pose a big headache for fantasy owners, but Montgomery is […]

Zach LaVine Will Play on Thursday

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (ankle) will suit up for Thursday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. LaVine was listed as probable after missing Wednesday's practice due to a sore ankle. However, it's just a minor issue and LaVine is fine going forward. He shouldn't be limited and fantasy owners can feel safe about using him.

Russell Westbrook Might Sit in Back-to-Back Set

Houston Rockets guard Russell Westbrook could be looking at sitting out in one of the upcoming back-to-back games. The Rockets play on Friday against the Pacers and then Saturday versus the Timberwolves. They've already sat Westbrook once for rest, so it wouldn't be surprising if it happens again. More information should be known on Friday, […]

Antonio Callaway Appealing 10-Game Suspension

Former Cleveland Browns wide receiver Antonio Callaway is reportedly appealing a 10-game suspension that the NFL handed down earlier in the season. He tested positive for a banned substance after using a CBD edible product in the summer to deal with an ankle injury. Callaway has had several drug-related incidents since declaring for the NFL […]

Jake Odorizzi Staying With Twins

Minnesota Twins starting pitcher Jake Odorizzi accepted the team's one-year, $17.8 million qualifying offer on Thursday, according to sources. Barring a contract extension, the right-hander will be a free agent after the 2020 season. Odorizzi had one of his best seasons in the bigs last year, going 15-7 with a 3.51 ERA, 1.21 WHIP and […]

Goran Dragic is Fine for Thursday

Miami Heat guard Goran Dragic (illness) will suit up for Thursday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Dragic and Tyler Herro (ankle) were listed as questionable going in, but both are cleared to play here. Justise Winslow (head) is sidelined, so Herro and Dragic will see more time and have some DFS appeal.

Tyler Herro Will Play on Thursday

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (ankle) will suit up for Thursday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Both Herro and Goran Dragic (illness) were listed as questionable going into this one. Herro will play, but the return of Jimmy Butler has hurt his value. However, Justise Winslow (head) being sidelined might give Herro a little boost […]

Jose Abreu Accepts Qualifying Offer

Chicago White Sox first baseman Jose Abreu accepted the one-year, $17.8 million qualifying offer on Thursday, according to sources. Barring an extension, Abreu will be a free agent after the 2020 season. The 32-year-old Cuban quietly led baseball with 123 RBI in 2019 and also slugged 33 home runs, hit .284 and scored 85 runs […]

Goga Bitadze Will Return on Friday

Indiana Pacers center Goga Bitadze (head) will return to the court for Friday's game against the Houston Rockets. He missed the last three games due to a concussion, but is ready to play again. Myles Turner (ankle) has been ruled out for the eighth straight game, but is making progress. Bitadze will carry deep league […]

Gerald Everett, Tyler Higbee Expected To Play Sunday

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said he expects tight ends Gerald Everett (wrist) and Tyler Higbee (knee) to play on Sunday night against the Bears in Week 11. Everett has had a breakout season in 2019 and has become the preferred pass-catching tight end over Higbee. With Brandin Cooks (concussion) out at least […]

Jeremy Lamb is Ruled Out for Friday

Indiana Pacers forward Jeremy Lamb (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Houston Rockets. This marks the fifth game in a row that Lamb has missed due to this ankle injury. Aaron Holiday should start again, while Malcolm Brogdon will be asked to carry the load on offense. It's unclear when Lamb […]

Clint Capela Ruled Out for Friday

Houston Rockets center Clint Capela (head) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers. Capela has a concussion and will need to clear the league's protocol before playing again. Tyson Chandler is expected to start, while P.J. Tucker could play close to 40 minutes. Capela could be looking at sitting on Saturday […]

Alex Erickson Gets In Limited Practice

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Alex Erickson (back) returned to a limited practice on Thursday after being held out on Wednesday. Even with A.J. Green (ankle) unlikely to return this weekend, Erickson isn't a recommended fantasy starter in any league as the No. 3 receiver on a winless Bengals team with rookie quarterback Ryan Finley under […]

A.J. Green Not Practicing Again Thursday

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver A.J. Green (ankle) remains out of practice on Thursday. Green suffered a setback due to swelling in his ankle last week and remains without a timetable to return. He was getting close to making his season debut, but he now appears unlikely to play in Week 11 against the Raiders. At […]

Danuel House is Doubtful for Friday

Houston Rockets forward Danuel House (back) is doubtful for Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers. It's looking like Friday is going to be the second straight game that House misses. Ben McLemore may start again, while Austin Rivers gets more minutes off the bench. Both could be worth a look in deep leagues while the […]

Nicolas Batum is Not Expected to Play Friday

Charlotte Hornets forward Nicolas Batum (finger) is not expected to suit up for Friday's game against the Detroit Pistons. He fractured his middle finger on October 24 and hasn't played since then. Batum was expected to miss three to four weeks of action because of the injury. He's currently in the third week, but is […]

Patrick Beverley Ruled Out Thursday

Los Angeles Clippers guard Patrick Beverley (calf) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. It's the second game of a back-to-back set, so the Clippers will be cautious here. It's just a sore calf, so Beverley is expected to only miss one game. Lou Williams should see a boost in […]

Kawhi Leonard Will Rest Against Pelicans

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (rest) will sit out against the New Orleans Pelicans on Thursday. It's the second game of a back-to-back set, so the Clippers will rest Leonard. Paul George (shoulder) is making his season debut, so he'll be asked to carry the load on offense without Leonard available.

Braves Sign Will Smith

The Atlanta Braves have signed left-handed relief pitcher Will Smith, formerly of the San Francisco Giants, to a three-year contract worth $39 million. The deal includes a club option for 2023 worth $13 million. Smith recorded 34 saves for the Giants last season along with a 2.76 ERA and 96:21 strikeout-to-walk ratio in 65 1/3 […]

Paul George Expected to Make Season Debut Thursday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Paul George (shoulder) is expected to make his regular season debut against the New Orleans Pelicans on Thursday. George has been out for the first few weeks of the season while rehabbing his shoulder injury. Kawhi Leonard (rest) won't suit up for Thursday's contest. George could be on a minutes limit, […]

Dwayne Bacon is Probable for Friday

Charlotte Hornets forward Dwayne Bacon (knee) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Bacon didn't play on Wednesday and was unable to suit up for Thursday's practice. However, the team believes the knee issue is minor and Bacon should be fine going forward. Bacon could end up coming off the bench, […]

Gerrit Cole Not Short On Suitors

The Yankees, Angels, Rangers and Phillies are among the teams that have already shown interest in starting pitcher Gerrit Cole. The Nationals could be interested in him if they can't re-sign Stephen Strasburg, while the Astros haven't given up either. Cole is certain to set a record for a starter in free agency after leading […]

Kevin Huerter is Out Indefinitely

Atlanta Hawks guard Kevin Huerter (shoulder) is expected to miss significant time after suffering an injury. Head coach Lloyd Pierce said "it's going to take some time" for Huerter to get back on the court. The MRI didn't reveal a tear, but the Hawks will remain cautious. Cam Reddish and Deandre Bembry will get boosted […]

Kyrie Irving is Probable for Thursday

Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving (shoulder) is listed as probable for Thursday's game against the Denver Nuggets. However, the Nets might play it safe, so fantasy owners shouldn't plug him in just yet. Spencer Dinwiddie would be looking at heavy minutes without Irving and be a popular DFS option. More information should be known about […]
