Jrue Holiday Records Just 13 Points

New Orleans Pelicans guard Jrue Holiday logged 13 points during the overtime loss to the Raptors. Holiday led the team with 41 minutes despite coach Gentry going deep into his rotation against a Toronto team that saw only eight players see action. Though he relegated some of his production to the trio of Brandon Ingram, […]

Fred VanVleet Scores 34 Points In Win

Toronto Raptors guard Fred Vanvleet was solid during the win over the Pelicans on Tuesday, finishing the night with 34 points on 12-for-18 from the field. The 25-year-old also contributed elsewhere by recording seven assists, five boards, and two steals while shooting an impressive 5-for-7 from deep. With Kyle Lowry having an off night from […]

Kyle Lowry Cold From Deep On Tuesday

Toronto Raptors guard Kyle Lowry scored 22 points during the overtime win over the Pelicans. It wasn't pretty to get there, however, as the veteran shot an abysmal 4-for-15 from the field and 3-for-11 from downtown on Tuesday. He was able to supplement those shoddy marks from the foul line by draining 11 of his […]

Danny Green Makes It Rain In Southern California

Danny Green lit up the building during the third quarter of the Los Angeles Lakers versus Los Angeles Clippers, scoring 18 of his 28 points in the quarter. His onslaught to get the Lakers back in the game helped him to register the highest scoring output of anyone on the team at 28 points and […]

Anthony Davis Is Surprisingly Erratic From The Field

Anthony Davis was uncharacteristically erratic from the field on opening night, hitting just 38.1 percent of his 21 attempts. However, despite his subpar shooting, Davis showed why he is one of the best talents in the game - showcasing a superb amount of versatility on both sides of the ball. If the 26-year-old can stay […]

LeBron James Struggles Against Stout Clippers Defense

LeBron James was only able to hit seven of his 19 shots on Tuesday night, posting 18 points, nine rebounds, eight assists, one steal, one block and one three-pointer. All in all, the outing from the 34-year-old did make him look human for once, but fantasy owners shouldn't have much to complain about anytime James […]

Lou Williams Shows His Value On Opening Night

Lou Williams registered 21 points, five rebounds, seven assists, one steal and one three-pointer on an impressive eight of 14 shooting from the field. The three-time Sixth Man of the Year and back-to-back winner of the award showed consistently throughout the game why he is one of the best pure scorers in the league and […]

Kawhi Leonard Takes One Round In Los Angeles Rivalry

Kawhi Leonard got off to a great start in his Los Angeles Clippers debut, scoring 30 points on 10-for-19 shooting to help his new team defeat the Los Angeles Lakers.

Pascal Siakam Impressive On Opening Night

Toronto Raptors forward Pascal Siakam finished with 34 points on 11-for-26 shooting from the field in addition to pulling down 18 rebounds on Tuesday against the Pelicans. The 25-year-old, who is fresh off of a four-year contract extension, led the way offensively before fouling out late in the fourth quarter. Siakam, who also demonstrated some […]

Corey Conners' Ball Striking Will Make Him Popular

Corey Conners is currently projected to be the highest owned player at under $8,100 on DraftKings. It makes sense because of the Canadian's phenomenal ball-striking nature, but owners might want to be careful in backing the 67th-ranked player in the world this weekend. In Conners' past 50 rounds compared to the field, he ranks bottom-10 […]

Xander Schauffele Shouldn't Be Overlooked

Xander Schauffele sometimes gets stereotyped into a specific range, even though his game has proven to be successful throughout most venues. Tree-lined fairways have given pause to some that the American is not accurate enough off the tee to find success at a course that has trouble lurking if you miss the short grass, but […]

Jason Day Wins Skins Game, Heads To ZOZO For More Golf

It has been an eventful past week for Jason Day. A share of 31st place at the CJ Cup won't express just how close he looked for the first two days in his chances to hoist the title, and then we saw the Aussie head to Japan on Monday to take part in the Skins […]

Jordan Spieth Continues To Look Shaky With Driver

Did we see a new and improved version of Jordan Spieth during the CJ Cup? His results might say so with a respectable share of eighth place, but his statistical numbers looked to mimic his struggles during the 2019 season. Spieth recorded the best showing in the field when it came to putts per green […]

Sergio Garcia's PGA Tour Struggles Continue

Sergio Garcia entered last week's CJ Cup with three straight top-25 results on the European Tour, but his poor form on the PGA Tour continued with a share of 60th place in South Korea. Garcia has now gone seven straight events on tour without a result better than a share of 40th and will be […]

Justin Thomas Wins CJ Cup, Quickly Gets Back Into Action

Make that two victories in South Korea during the past three seasons for Justin Thomas. To understand just how good Thomas has been during his first few years on tour, his triumph last weekend tied him with Phil Mickelson, Rory McIlroy and Jordan Spieth for the second-most wins before the age of 27. As you […]

Rory McIlroy Starts PGA Tour Season In Japan

After capturing three titles on the PGA Tour last season, Rory McIlroy will make the first start of his 2020 campaign in Japan for the ZOZO Championship. It has become uncommon to see the second-ranked player in the world not priced as the highest option on the DraftKings slate, but McIlroy will enter the week […]

Klay Thompson Unlikely to Play This Season

Golden State Warriors guard Klay Thompson (knee) is unlikely to play this season, according to head coach Steve Kerr. Thompson tore his ACL during the playoffs in June, but underwent surgery to repair it in July. The recovery process normally takes one year, so the Warriors aren't going to rush it. Fantasy owners with an […]

Mitchell Robinson Could Sit Out Wednesday

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (ankle) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's season opener against the San Antonio Spurs. Robinson reportedly rolled his ankle going for a rebound, according to head coach David Fizdale. Veteran forward Taj Gibson (calf) is also questionable for this contest. Bobby Portis and Julius Randle could be asked to […]

Taj Gibson Could Miss Wednesday's Contest

New York Knicks forward Taj Gibson (calf) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's season opener against the San Antonio Spurs. Gibson missed the preseason finale on Friday due to the same calf issue. Bobby Portis would be asked to do more, assuming Gibson doesn't play on Wednesday. The Knicks have a bunch of veteran big […]

Anthony Miller (WR, CHI) - Week 8 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 12% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Heading into the 2019 season, the Chicago Bears offense in general was one that many fantasy football owners were banking on a breakout from. Between Mitch Trubisky, Allen Robinson, second-year wide receiver Anthony Miller, and the running backs, it made sense. Unfortunately […]

Jonas Valanciunas Will Be Limited to Start the Season

Memphis Grizzlies center Jonas Valanciunas (foot) will start in Wednesday's season opener, but he'll be limited to begin the season. He missed the entire preseason due to foot soreness. The Grizzlies don't want to rush him back too soon, so limiting Valanciunas is the best option. It's concerning for fantasy owners, but hopefully the soreness […]

Dwight Powell is Miss Two Games

Dallas Mavericks forward/center Dwight Powell (hamstring) will miss at least the first two games of the season, according to head coach Rick Carlisle. Powell had already been ruled out for Wednesday, but he'll sit out on Friday as well. The Mavs aren't going to rush him back to the court, so he could miss more […]

Jaron Brown (WR, SEA) - Week 8 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: One of my favorite breakout candidates for the 2019 fantasy football season was Tyler Lockett of the Seattle Seahawks. After drafting DK Metcalf and losing Doug Baldwin to retirement, the WR2 role for the Seahwawks appeared to be up for grabs with […]

Rajon Rondo Might Sit Versus Clippers

Los Angeles Lakers guard Rajon Rondo (calf) is questionable for Tuesday's season opener against the Los Angeles Clippers. Head coach Frank Vogel said they will wait until closer to game time before making a final decision. Avery Bradley, Alex Caruso, and Quinn Cook would be asked to pick up extra minutes without Rondo. None of […]

Rodney McGruder Won't Play Against Lakers

Los Angeles Clippers forward Rodney McGruder (ankle) has been ruled out for Tuesday's season opener against the Los Angeles Lakers. He'll join teammate Paul George (shoulder) on the sideline for this one. Maurice Harkless and JaMychal Green will be asked to do more off the bench. Kawhi Leonard will carry the load on offense.
