Blake Griffin And Milos Teodosic Will Play Thursday

Los Angeles Clippers power forward Blake Griffin (concussion) and point guard Milos Teodosic (foot) will return to the starting lineup Thursday night against the Sacramento Kings. Griffin suffered a concussion Saturday and missed the last two games, while Teodosic has been dealing with a lingering plantar fasciitis injury which sidelined him for most of the […]

Isaiah Thomas Will Play Thursday, Sit Out Friday

Updating a previous report, Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Isaiah Thomas (rest) will play Thursday night against the Toronto Raptors. It appears reporters had misheard the original comments, as Thomas will rest Friday night against the Indiana Pacers instead in the second night of a back-to-back. Season-long fantasy owners can start Thomas in their lineups, but […]

Rudy Gobert Doing Non-Contact Work; Ruled Out Friday

Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert (knee) is still out for Friday night's contest against the Charlotte Hornets but appears to be on track of his original timeline of mid-January. Gobert went through the non-contact portion of practice Thursday and should be ramping up his activity in the coming days. Gobert would still need to go […]

Isaiah Thomas Resting Against Toronto

The Cleveland Cavaliers will rest point guard Isaiah Thomas Thursday night against the Toronto Raptors. Thomas recently came back from a hip injury which sidelined him for most of the season, and he appears to have a day off Thursday. The Cavs will likely start point guard Jose Calderon while Dwyane Wade and Lebron James […]

Kyrie Irving has Sloppy Game in London

Boston Celtics point guard Kyrie Irving managed to salvage his line on Thursday against the 76ers, finishing with 20 points, six rebounds and seven assists through four quarters. The downside is Irving shot 7-for-20 in the contest and also turned the ball over a game-high five times in this one. Uncle Drew failed to account […]

Jaylen Brown Scores Team-High 21 Points Against Philly

Boston Celtics guard/forward Jaylen Brown had himself a game in London, scoring a team-high 21 points on an effective 8-for-15, including two treys. Brown also pitched in with four boards and two assists, but really shined on defense with his three steals. Brown is notoriously streaky but has been pretty hot as of late (excluding […]

Jayson Tatum Solid in Win Against Sixers

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum had another good game on Thursday, as the Celtics beat the 76ers in London, England. Tatum scored an easy 13 points on 7-for-13 shooting, adding one three-pointer in his 24 minutes. Tatum also helped out with four rebounds and two assists in the win. He didn't notch any defensive stats […]

Marcus Morris Heats up for 19 Points on Thursday

Boston Celtics forward Marcus Morris had a great game against Philly, sinking three triples on his way to an efficient 19 points (7-for-13). Morris was effective on the glass in this one, pulling down eight boards in his 24 minutes of action. Things got a little heated when Sixers point guard/forward Ben Simmons ran through […]

Al Horford Flirts with Triple-Double in London

Boston Celtics center/power forward Al Horford (knee) returned to action in England and played really well in retribution for the time lost. Horford scored 13 points on 5-for-10 shooting, including one triple in the comeback victory against the Sixers. He also looked like he could come away with a triple-double but ultimately fell short, as […]

Dion Waiters Expected To Undergo Season-Ending Surgery

Injury woes continue to plague the Miami Heat as guard/forward Dion Waiters (ankle) will have surgery on his left ankle and will miss the remainder of the season. Waiters received multiple opinions on the injury after missing nine straight games. In the absence of Waiters, Miami will continue to start Tyler Johnson at shooting guard and Josh […]

Kyle Lowry Officially Out Against Cavs

Toronto Raptors point guard Kyle Lowry (tailbone) is out Thursday night against the Cleveland Cavaliers. This comes as no surprise, as Lowry was doubtful coming into the night with a bruised tailbone. Point guard Delon Wright will make his second straight start, while Fred VanVleet and Norman Powell will get more run off the bench. […]

J.J. Redick Heats up Against the Celtics

Philadelphia 76ers shooting guard J.J. Redick was feeling it in London, scoring 13 in the first quarter to end the game with an efficient 22 points (7-for-12). Redick knocked down five triples in the loss and was rebounding the ball very well on top of that, finishing with seven boards in his 30 minutes. He […]

Ben Simmons Scores 16 Points With Supporting Stats

Philadelphia 76ers point guard/forward Ben Simmons played well in London against the Celtics, scoring 16 points on an above-average 8-for-12 shooting. Simmons wasn't his usual passing or rebounding self with only two boards and three assists in this one. The defensive numbers were there, however, as he came away with two steals and two blocks […]

Joel Embiid Posts Double-Double Against the Celtics

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid made the most of the international stage on Thursday, scoring 15 points on a less than efficient 6-for-17 shooting, while grabbing a game-high 10 rebounds in his 30 minutes on the court. Embiid was also showing off his passing skills in this one, pulling off a nice five assists from […]

Robert Covington's Slump Continues in London

Philadelphia 76ers forward Robert Covington's struggles persisted across the pond, shooting a lousy 2-for-8 from the field to finish with five points against the Celtics. Worse yet, Covington turned the ball over four times in this one while only adding three rebounds and one assist elsewhere. He has really had a tough time lately, but […]

Dario Saric Plays Well in London

Philadelphia 76ers forward Dario Saric was effective on Thursday against Boston despite struggling with his shot (4-for-11). Saric scored 14 points in the contest, to go along with four boards and three assists. He showed his usual active hands on defense as well and came away with two steals for his efforts. Sixers rookie guard […]

T.J. McConnell has a Nice Game on Thursday

Philadelphia 76ers guard T.J. McConnell had a fine game off the bench in London, as he shot 6-for-11 from the field to score 12 points in his 26 minutes of action. McConnell was doing it out of the scoring column as well, racking up four rebounds and five assists in the loss to Boston. He […]

Cowboys Offensive Line Coach Frank Pollack Will Not Return in 2018

Dallas Cowboys offensive line coach Frank Pollack will not return to the team for the 2018 season. This will be the sixth change on head coach Jason Garrett's staff since the season ended and is considered the most significant so far because of all the resources the team has put into its running game. Rumored […]

Derrick Henry The Present And Future In Tennessee

Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry is clearly the present and the future for the team with DeMarco Murray likely on his way out. The Titans have high expectations for Henry, and former running back Eddie George thinks Henry can be a "1,500-1,800-yard type of running back." Since entering the league in 2016, the Titans […]

Nationals Re-Sign Edwin Jackson

The Washington Nationals re-signed starting pitcher Edwin Jackson to a minor league deal Thursday, but he can make $1.5 million if he's on the big league roster, plus another $1.4 million in potential incentives. Between the Orioles and Nats in 2017, Jackson went 5-6 with a 5.21 ERA, 1.51 WHIP and 7.1 K/9 in 76 […]

Aaron Donald Doesn't Plan To Hold Out Again

Los Angeles Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald, who could win Defensive Player of the Year in 2017, said he doesn't plan to hold out for the second season in a row as he seeks a contract extension. Donald sat out all last summer before missing Week 1 of the regular season. He played in just […]

Brice Butler Won't Re-Sign With the Cowboys Without a Promise That He'll Start

Impending free-agent wide receiver Brice Butler stated in an interview on Thursday that he will not re-sign with the Dallas Cowboys unless he is promised a starting job next season. His exact words were, "With Dallas, the situation has to be right for me to go back [...] I have to be a starter. If […]

Rex Burkhead, James White, Mike Gillislee Listed As Questionable

New England Patriots running backs Rex Burkhead (knee), James White (ankle) and Mike Gillislee (knee) are all listed as questionable for the Divisional Round against the Titans after practicing on a limited basis Thursday. All three are expected to be healthy enough to play, but Gillislee will likely be the odd-man out as an inactive, […]

Chris Hogan Taken Off Injury Report

New England Patriots wide receiver Chris Hogan (shoulder) has been taken off the injury for the Divisional Round against the Titans. This confirms that he will return to play this weekend. He'll give quarterback Tom Brady another weapon through the air, but even in a great matchup, Hogan is a risky DFS play given the […]

Blake Griffin Questionable for Thursday

Los Angeles Clippers forward/center Blake Griffin (concussion) is questionable to play against the Sacramento Kings on Thursday. Griffin has missed the last two games, but both him and guard Milos Teodosic (foot) remain questionable heading into Thursday's matchup. Both players are likely heading towards game-time decisions, but the questionable tag means Griffin is at least […]

Milos Teodosic Questionable Against Kings

Los Angeles Clippers guard Milos Teodosic (foot) is questionable to play against the Sacramento Kings on Thursday. He's missed three straight games, but the official word from L.A. is questionable for Thursday. The Clippers are already without C.J. Williams (ankle), so having Teodosic would be a significant benefit. A return from Teodosic means Jawun Evans would […]

C.J. Williams Out on Thursday

Los Angeles Clippers shooting guard C.J. Williams (ankle) will not play against the Sacramento Kings on Thursday. Williams left the arena on crutches after Wednesday's victory over the Golden State Warriors. It's unclear how long Williams could be out, but it will mean more minutes for Jawun Evans and Tyrone Wallace. Lou Williams could see […]

George Hill Expected to Play Thursday

Sacramento Kings guard George Hill (personal) has rejoined the Kings after missing two games due to the birth of his child. Hill is expected to play against the Los Angeles Clippers on Thursday. The return of Hill should mean less minutes for guys like De'Aaron Fox, Garrett Temple, Buddy Hield and Bogdan Bogdanovic. The Kings […]

Kawhi Leonard Ruled Out Thursday

San Antonio Spurs guard/forward Kawhi Leonard (shoulder) will not play against the Los Angeles Lakers on Thursday. Not too much information is known about Leonard's injury, but this will be his third straight game on the sidelines. Hopefully head coach Gregg Popovich will address the issue and give a timetable for Leonard's return. Rudy Gay […]
