Alex Caruso Questionable Monday Against Portland

Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (toe) is questionable ahead of Monday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Caruso has been dealing with left-toe soreness and several minor injuries throughout the season. However, going into Monday, the 30-year-old played in nine consecutive contests. The veteran guard has been an average asset in fantasy play, but he […]

Coby White Doubtful Monday

Chicago Bulls guard Coby White (hip) is doubtful for Monday's matchup with Portland. If he does not suit up, it would be the third consecutive contest that he'd miss due to a right hip strain. Ayo Dosunmu would take his place, as he posted 34 points in Saturday's win over the struggling Washington Wizards. White's […]

Dean Wade Doubtful Versus Indiana

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Dean Wade (knee) isn't expected to play on Monday against Indiana. The 27-year-old missed time recently for a personal issue. But as soon as he got off the injury report, he went right back on because of knee soreness. With Evan Mobley (ankle) and Max Strus (knee) out, Wade would have been […]

Evan Mobley Out Again Versus The Pacers

Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Evan Mobley (ankle) remains out on Monday against the Pacers. He's been out for a few weeks because of a sprained left ankle. That said, the Cavs currently hold the No. 3 spot in the Eastern Conference, with the Knicks in pursuit. However, Cleveland is hoping for a championship, so Mobley won't […]

Dorian Finney-Smith Good To Go On Sunday

Brooklyn Nets forward Dorian Finney-Smith (ankle) will play against San Antonio on Sunday. He's been battling left ankle soreness, but the team has upgraded Finney-Smith from probable to available. The 30-year-old is enjoying a good month and should have a productive evening against an up-tempo team that usually struggles defensively. Finney-Smith has averaged 11.3 points, […]

Max Strus Out Again On Monday

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Max Strus (knee) remains out on Monday versus the Pacers. The 27-year-old has averaged a career-high 12.2 points, 4.7 rebounds, and 3.8 assists this season. But he's missed the Cavs' last seven games because of a sprained right knee. With Cleveland also down Donovan Mitchell (knee), Isaac Okoro and Sam Merrill should […]

Mason Black Could Make Starting Rotation

San Francisco Giants starting pitcher Mason Black is a candidate for the Opening Day rotation, according to manager Bob Melvin. The 24-year-old has been floated around as a possible option for the Giants rotation, but now the team confirms it. Black pitched fairly well in the minors last season as he struck out 155 batters […]

Donovan Mitchell Won't Play On Monday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (nose) will miss Monday's matchup against Indiana. After returning from a knee injury, Mitchell lasted just two games in the lineup, breaking his nose in Saturday's contest against Houston. Caris LeVert is set for a fresh boost in fantasy value without Mitchell, while Darius Garland will once again carry a […]

Tyler O'Neill Likely To Return On Tuesday

Boston Red Sox outfielder Tyler O'Neill (calf) is likely to return to the starting lineup on Tuesday, according to manager Alex Cora. O'Neill has been plagued by calf issues twice during camp already. The Red Sox are going to take the cautious approach and hold him out until he's fully healthy. If he returns on […]

Sam Hauser, Oshae Brissett Join Boston's Starting Unit

Boston Celtics forwards Sam Hauser and Oshae Brissett will join the starting lineup on Sunday against Washington. The two get a promotion to the first unit following injuries to Derrick White (hand) and Jaylen Brown (ankle). Brissett is starting for the first time this season, while Hauser will be rolling with starters for an eighth […]

Paul Skenes Optioned To Minors Camp

Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Paul Skenes has been optioned to minor league camp on Sunday. Skenes will join a handful of other players that will head to the minors and not make the Opening Day roster. It's not surprising to see Skenes getting reassigned as he was a longshot to make the roster. The right-hander […]

Cedi Osman Returns To Spurs Lineup On Sunday

San Antonio Spurs forward Cedi Osman (ankle) will be back in the lineup on Sunday against Brooklyn. The team has upgraded Osman from questionable to available. 28-year-old will return from a four-game absence. Osman's return adds some quality to the Spurs bench, but he hasn't played a very big part in the rotation. Julian Champagnie, […]

Bryce Harper Dealing With Minor Injury

Philadelphia Phillies first baseman Bryce Harper (back) has been out of the lineup since Thursday, which has raised some concerns about his health. On Sunday, Phillies manager Rob Thompson confirmed that Harper is dealing with minor back stiffness. The lefty slugger has been out since Thursday and will remain out until at least Tuesday. It's […]

Zack Wheeler Named Opening Day Starter

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Zack Wheeler has been confirmed as the Opening Day starter, according to manager Rob Thompson. The right-hander has earned this opportunity given how excellent he has pitched over the last few seasons. This will be a change of pace for the Phillies as Aaron Nola has started the last seven Opening […]

Tobias Harris Questionable For Monday's Game

Philadelphia 76ers forward Tobias Harris (ankle) has been listed as questionable for Monday's matchup against Miami. Harris missed Saturday's game against Charlotte with a right ankle sprain and couldn't practice on Sunday. The questionable tag leaves his status up in the air, but it's looking likely Harris will miss a second consecutive game. Nicolas Batum […]

Orlando Arcia Considered Day-To-Day

Atlanta Braves shortstop Orlando Arcia (left) was forced to exit early during Sunday's Grapefruit League contest against the Boston Red Sox. The 29-year-old was hit on the hand by a 96 mph pitch during Sunday's game. Luckily, it appears Arcia has avoided serious injury. The X-rays came back negative and Arcia is considered day-to-day with […]

Landry Shamet Out For Fourth Straight Game

Washington Wizards guard Landry Shamet (calf) will sit out a fourth straight game on Sunday against Boston. Shamet has been shelved with a left calf strain and will have the opportunity to return on Tuesday against Houston. He's one of seven Washington players out with injuries at present, meaning the team is down to bare […]

Jonathan Isaac Won't Play On Sunday

Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac (knee) will come out of the lineup on Sunday versus Toronto. After playing in six of the last seven games, Isaac misses Sunday's action with left knee injury maintenance. Isaac has been very productive lately, averaging 10.4 points, 5.6 rebounds, and 1.8 blocks in 18.6 minutes. Caleb Houstan should grab […]

RJ Barrett Remains Unavailable Sunday

Toronto Raptors guard/forward RJ Barrett (personal) will remain out of the lineup on Sunday against Orlando. He's mourning the passing of his younger brother and is without a timeline for a return. Sunday's matchup will be the third straight contest Barrett misses. Bruce Brown's role has increased during Barrett's absence. He's a great fantasy asset […]

Kristaps Porzingis Will Remain Out Against Washington

Boston Celtics forward/center Kristaps Porzingis (hamstring) will remain sidelined for Sunday's contest against Washington. Porzingis misses a chance to face his former team due to a right hamstring strain, sitting out a fifth consecutive game. He's missed a week of action with the injury but shouldn't be out for much longer, as Boston considers him […]

Derrick White Misses Sunday's Game

Boston Celtics guard Derrick White (hand) won't feature against Washington on Sunday. The C's kick off a back-to-back in D.C., and White will be kept out of the lineup with a left-hand sprain. Payton Pritchard's minutes should get a nice boost from White's absence, while Jrue Holiday will have more opportunities to orchestrate play in […]

Marvin Bagley III Continues To Sit On Sunday

Washington Wizards forward/center Marvin Bagley III (back) will miss a seventh straight game on Sunday versus the Celtics. The big man remains on the injury report with lower back spasms and will get his next opportunity to return on Tuesday in a matchup against Houston. Richaun Holmes should pick up another start at center on […]

Bilal Coulibaly Unavailable On Sunday

Washington Wizards guard/forward Bilal Coulibaly (wrist) has been ruled out for Sunday's matchup against Boston. He comes out of the lineup with a right wrist sprain after being initially regarded as questionable for the contest. The Wizards are now officially without all of their starters, leaving the keys to the offense to Jordan Poole and […]

Kyle Kuzma Won't Play On Sunday

Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma (shoulder) will sit out Sunday's contest against Boston. Kuzma had 11 points with five rebounds and four assists in 29 minutes against Chicago on Saturday but landed on the injury report with left shoulder soreness. He was initially listed as questionable for Sunday's game, but Wizards head coach Brian Keefe […]

Tyus Jones Not Ready To Return On Sunday

Washington Wizards point guard Tyus Jones (back) will be out for a second consecutive game on Sunday versus Boston. He missed his first contest of the season on Saturday against Chicago and will need a bit more time to get over a back issue. Jordan Poole was back among the starters against the Bulls, posting […]

Deni Avdija Remains Out On Sunday

Washington Wizards forward Deni Avdija (knee) will sit out a second consecutive game on Sunday versus Boston. He was a late scratch on Saturday against Chicago and will miss another game with a right knee contusion. Avdija's absence is set to give Corey Kispert another start. He was Washington's top scorer on Saturday with 16 […]

Joey Votto Exits During Debut

Toronto Blue Jays first baseman Joey Votto (ankle) was forced to exit early during Sunday's spring training contest against the Philadelphia Phillies. The veteran slugger launched a solo home run in his first at-bat with his new team. Sadly, Votto didn't last too much longer as he rolled his ankle stepping on a bat in […]

Tommy Pham Nearing Deal With Padres

The San Diego Padres are close to a deal with free-agent outfielder Tommy Pham, according to Bob Nightengale. The expectation is that it'll be a cheap one-year contract. The Padres could use the help in the outfield as this team does lack depth there. Currently, Jurickson Profar is penciled in as the everyday left fielder. […]
