Sam Darnold Falls Flat Again In Loss To Rams

Minnesota Vikings quarterback Sam Darnold completed 25-of-40 passes for 245 yards and one touchdown in Monday night's 27-9 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. He'd add 19 yards on four carries, tossed one interception, was sacked nine times, and coughed up a fumble that was returned for a TD. Ouch. There's no getting around it: […]

Matthew Stafford Tosses Two Touchdown Passes In Playoff Win

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford completed 19 of his 27 pass attempts for 209 yards, two touchdowns, and zero interceptions during Monday's Wild Card win over the Minnesota Vikings. The veteran signal-caller also took two sacks in the contest. All in all, this was a highly productive showing from Stafford and the Rams' offense. […]

Tyler Higbee Downgraded To Out

Per Adam Grosbard of the team, Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee (chest) has officially been ruled out for Monday's Wild Card matchup with the Minnesota Vikings. Higbee exited the game early in the second quarter and was initially ruled doubtful about returning. However, he was not well enough to do so after halftime. […]

Deni Avdija Questionable Versus Brooklyn

Portland Trail Blazers forward Deni Avdija (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's contest against the Nets. The former Wizard got off to a slow start to begin his career in Portland. However, he's turned it around, averaging 17.0 points, 9.0 rebounds, and 1.3 steals in six games this month. With Jerami Grant (face) already ruled out, […]

Deion Sanders In Talks With Cowboys About Head-Coaching Vacancy

According to Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports, University of Colorado head coach Deion Sanders has been in talks with Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones regarding their open position at head coach. It's intriguing news, considering that less than two months ago, Sanders was on record stating that he would stay put at his current gig. […]

Anthony Davis Will Suit Up Versus San Antonio

Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (foot) will play on Monday against the Spurs. As expected, AD has had a monster 2024-25 campaign. However, he's only missed two games this season, which is what fantasy managers have appreciated the most. Davis has averaged 29.5 points, 13.0 rebounds, 1.0 blocks, and 1.0 steals in two meetings […]

Patrick Fishburn Starts 2025 Season Strong

Patrick Fishburn has been playing phenomenal golf lately, with finishes of T6, T8, and T12 in his last three events. In his top-10 performance at the Sony Open last week, Fishburn relied on his short game, gaining over 9.6 strokes in putting and around the green combined. Fishburn doesn't have a long history at The […]

LeBron James Active Versus The Spurs

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (foot) is active heading into Monday's meeting with the Spurs. The multi-time All-Star has been dealing with a foot injury all year. However, he was listed as probable for this one, so most assumed he would be out there on Monday night. With that in mind, James is always […]

Jeremy Sochan Won't Play On Monday Night

San Antonio Spurs forward Jeremy Sochan (back) has been ruled out heading into Monday's game versus the Lakers. The 21-year-old will now miss a second-straight contest because of low back tightness. The Spurs don't play again until Wednesday versus Memphis, so there's a chance he could be back for that one. But in the meantime, […]

Ben Simmons Uncertain For Tuesday Night

Brooklyn Nets guard Ben Simmons (back, knee) is questionable for Tuesday's game in Portland. The Nets will play back-to-back games on Tuesday and Wednesday, so Simmons will miss at least one of them. While the former 76er hasn't been a consistent fantasy contributor during the 2024-25 campaign, he's had his moments of production, recently amassing […]

Cameron Johnson Has A Chance To Return On Tuesday

Brooklyn Nets forward Cameron Johnson (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's meeting with the Blazers. The 28-year-old has had the best season of his career in 2024-25. He also stayed relatively healthy until missing the last five games because of a sprained right ankle. The Nets are hurting entering Tuesday night, with D'Angelo Russell (shin), Ben […]

Tyler Higbee Doubtful To Return Vs. Vikings

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee (chest) exited Monday night's matchup with the Minnesota Vikings and is doubtful to return. The 32-year-old was busy to start this one, reeling in all five of his targets for 58 yards through the first quarter and change. It's unfortunate news for the veteran, who just returned from […]

Bam Adebayo Ruled Out On Monday Night

Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo (back) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Clippers. The big man was listed as available to begin the day. However, after he was downgraded to questionable, he'll now miss his first game of the 2024-25 campaign. Jimmy Butler (suspension) remains out, so the team could rely more […]

D'Angelo Russell In Danger Of Missing Another Game

Brooklyn Nets point guard D'Angelo Russell (shin) is in danger of missing a fifth consecutive game, as the team lists him as questionable for Tuesday's clash against Portland. Russell is working his way back from a shin injury he suffered on Jan. 4 against Philadelphia. Keon Johnson has taken on a significant workload since Russell […]

Kyle Lowry Remains Sidelined

Philadelphia 76ers guard Kyle Lowry (hip) will miss his fifth straight game on Tuesday, and it also seems unlikely he'll be ready to turn around and play in the second game of the Sixers' back-to-back on Wednesday against the Knicks. On Friday, coach Nick Nurse said that Lowry had not yet reached the "day-to-day phase" […]

Nicolas Claxton Considered Questionable For Tuesday

Brooklyn Nets center Nicolas Claxton (hamstring) has landed on the injury report as questionable ahead of Tuesday's clash against Portland. The Nets big man might miss his first action since Nov. 27. Day'Ron Sharpe and Noah Clowney would get a boost from Claxton's absence, with the latter already part of the starting lineup. Sharpe's per-minute […]

Caleb Martin May Miss Second Straight Game

Philadelphia 76ers forward Caleb Martin (groin) was listed as questionable for Tuesday's matchup against the Thunder. Martin missed Sunday's game with groin soreness as well, snapping a string of nine straight games in the starting lineup. With both Joel Embiid (foot) and Andre Drummond (toe) still out, the Sixers will be very short-handed in the […]

Nick Dunlap Aims To Defend His American Express Title

Nick Dunlap, the 2024 winner of The American Express, returns to La Quinta this week with hopes of defending his title. His impressive 29-under performance last year, which included a four-day scorecard of 64-65-60-70, earned him a one-stroke victory over runner-up Christian Bezuidenhout. In addition to his win at The American Express, Dunlap also triumphed […]

Andre Drummond Ruled Out Tuesday

Philadelphia 76ers center Andre Drummond (toe) will miss a fifth straight game on Tuesday when the Sixers host the Thunder. Drummond's absence has been poorly timed for the team since Joel Embiid (foot) has also been sidelined. With both big men out again on Tuesday, Guerschon Yabusele will have to continue to do most of […]

Grayson Allen Likely Good To Go Tuesday

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Grayson Allen (knee) is probable for Tuesday's matchup against Atlanta. Due to a knee injury, Allen played only 13 minutes against Charlotte on Sunday. Luckily, he escaped serious injury and has a chance to feature in Tuesday's contest. Allen's fantasy value has gone downhill this season after he was relegated to the […]

Julian Strawther Probable Tuesday Against Dallas

Denver Nuggets guard Julian Strawther (knee) is expected to play through a right knee strain on Tuesday when the Nuggets visit the Mavericks to start a back-to-back. Strawther is averaging 21.8 minutes per game for the season, but he's been getting more run lately, playing over 25 minutes in five straight games and averaging 28.4 […]

Jusuf Nurkic Battling Flu, Not On Road Trip

Phoenix Suns center Jusuf Nurkic (illness) has been ruled out for Tuesday's contest against Atlanta. He is currently away from the team after Nurkic tested positive for the flu. The Suns begin a five-game road trip with Tuesday's contest. Before catching the flu, Nurkic was out of the rotation. Thus, his absence does not impact […]

Jake Woodford Signs Minor-League Contract With Colorado

According to Thomas Harding of MLB.com, the Colorado Rockies have signed right-handed pitcher Jake Woodford to a minor-league deal that includes an invite to spring training. The 28-year-old spent time with the White Sox and Pirates during the 2024 season and held a 7.97 ERA and a 1.63 WHIP across 35 innings of work. In […]

Coby White Questionable Tuesday Against The Pelicans

Chicago Bulls guard Coby White (neck) was listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Pelicans after he missed Sunday's five-point loss to the Kings. In White's absence, Lonzo Ball made his first start of the season and played 25 minutes, producing 15 points, three assists, a block, and a rebound. Ball's minutes are still […]

Yankees Sign Dominic Smith To Minor-League Deal

According to Mark Feinsand of MLB.com, the New York Yankees have signed first baseman/outfielder Dominic Smith to a minor-league contract. Smith opened the 2024 season with the Boston Red Sox but was eventually shipped to Cincinnati. Across 93 major league games last summer, Smith held a .233/.313/.378 line with six home runs. In 21 games […]

Bogdan Bogdanovic Questionable To Play On Tuesday

Atlanta Hawks guard/forward Bogdan Bogdanovic (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's contest against Phoenix. He's dealing with inflammation in his right knee. Bogdanovic has constantly battled health issues throughout the campaign, making only 17 appearances. He has averaged 11.2 points in 25.6 minutes. Bogdanovic's absence on Tuesday would give additional work to Garrison Mathews. The 28-year-old […]

Ayo Dosunmu Could Return On Tuesday

Chicago Bulls guard Ayo Dosunmu (calf) seems to be on the verge of a return since he has been ramping up on-court activity and is listed as questionable for Tuesday's matchup against the Pelicans. Dosunmu hasn't played since December 23, but he was very productive in the month before his calf injury. He averaged 14.4 […]
