Jamal Murray Listed As Probable On Christmas Day

Denver Nuggets point guard Jamal Murray (foot) is considered probable for the team's Christmas Day game against Phoenix.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 21% of leagues ANALYSIS: We had to wait more than a full month to watch Markelle Fultz grace a basketball court, but he finally did it in Orlando's last game of November and he's now played (and started) 13 games on the full year and every […]

Jeff Green Ruled Out For Four Weeks

Denver Nuggets forward/center Jeff Green will be re-evaluated in four weeks after he sustained a left finger sprain and hand fracture Friday against Portland. Green isn't much of a fantasy factor these days anymore, but he's been an important member of the bench unit for Denver, and losing him is a blow for the team. […]

Khris Middleton Doubtful For Christmas Day Game

Milwaukee Bucks forward Khris Middleton (knee) is considered doubtful for a meeting with the Celtics on Christmas Day. He has a sore right knee and is in danger of missing his fifth consecutive game. Health issues have limited Middleton to only seven appearances this season, and he's been far from his best with averages of […]

Marcus Smart Probable To Suit Up On Christmas

Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart (hip) is listed as probable for Sunday's Christmas clash with Milwaukee. He's been having trouble with left hip Inflammation, but it's not a serious issue and Smart should be good to go. The 28-year-old has struggled with his shot this month, but Smart always finds ways to make himself useful […]

LeBron James Regarded As Probable For Christmas Game

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is probable for the team's Christmas Day battle with Dallas.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 39% of leagues ANALYSIS: Dub-dub to close the pre-Xmas season? Gotta love it!

Washington Commanders quarterback Carson Wentz completed 12-of-16 passes for 123 yards and one touchdown in Saturday's loss to the San Francisco 49ers. There were rumors entering this game that Wentz would make his return to the field if fellow quarterback Taylor Heinicke struggled. That eventually led to the former Indianapolis Colt taking the field in […]

Terry McLaurin Leads Washington In Receiving In Week 16

Washington Commanders wide receiver Terry McLaurin caught four-of-five targets for 77 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Despite going up against the incredible 49er defense, the 27-year-old had another productive performance. One concerning aspect of this game was Carson Wentz taking over for Taylor Heinicke in the fourth quarter. […]

Jahan Dotson Continues Touchdown Streak In Week 16

Washington Commanders wide receiver Jahan Dotson caught six-of-nine targets for 76 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's loss to the San Francisco 49ers.

Curtis Samuel Catches All Five Targets In Week 16

Washington Commanders wide receiver Curtis Samuel caught all five of his targets for 52 yards and a touchdown along with one carry for two yards in Saturday's loss to the San Francisco 49ers.

Panthers Defense Steps Up Against Lions

The Carolina Panthers' defense allowed 23 points to the Detroit Lions while recording two sacks and a fumble recovery in the Week 16 victory. Although the Panthers surrendered 355 passing yards and three touchdowns to Lions' quarterback Jared Goff, Carolina held Detroit to just 45 rushing yards and turned in a decent fantasy showing. An […]

Brian Robinson Jr. Bottled Up Against San Francisco

Washington Commanders running back Brian Robinson Jr. had 22 carries for 58 yards in Saturday's loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Things weren't looking good for the rookie running back heading into this matchup, as the 49ers have ranked as the top run defense in the NFL this season. While his stat line was disappointing, […]

Eddy Pineiro Busy Again In Week 16 Win

Carolina Panthers kicker Eddy Pineiro drilled all three of his field goal attempts and all four of his extra-point tries in a 37-23 victory over the Detroit Lions. Pineiro was perfect for a fifth consecutive contest and continued to put up fantasy points with Carolina's offense moving the ball effectively. He has made three field […]

Alexander Mattison Not Involved In Week 16

Minnesota Vikings running back Alexander Mattison finished with 17 yards off four carries in the win over the Giants on Saturday. The 24-year-old certainly has plenty of talent. However, with Dalvin Cook healthy and on the field, Mattison will only be good for a few touches here and there, along with an occasional touchdown. As […]

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Laviska Shenault Jr. hauled in all three of his targets for 53 yards in the team's 37-23 home win over the Detroit Lions.

K.J. Osborn Cools Off On Saturday

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver K.J. Osborn had three catches for 17 yards during the win over the Giants on Saturday. The 25-year-old cooled off after amassing 10 receptions for 157 yards and a touchdown in Week 15 versus the Colts. In all fairness, Justin Jefferson and T.J. Hockenson got most of Kirk Cousins' attention, so […]

T.J. Hockenson Explodes In Win On Saturday

Minnesota Vikings tight end T.J. Hockenson had one of the best performances of his career against the Giants in Week 16. He totaled 109 yards off a game-high 13 catches. More importantly, the 25-year-old found the end zone twice, finishing the day as one of the top fantasy options. Hockenson certainly bounced back after his […]

Terrace Marshall Jr. Gains 55 Yards In Week 16 Win

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Terrace Marshall Jr. finished with two receptions for 55 yards on three targets in a Week 16 win over the Detroit Lions. Quarterback Sam Darnold connected with Marshall for a 36-yard completion in the second quarter that eventually led to a rushing touchdown from D'Onta Foreman. The second-year wideout continues to […]

DJ Moore Stays Hot In Week 16 Victory

Carolina Panthers wide receiver DJ Moore hauled in five of his seven targets for 83 yards and a touchdown in the team's Week 16 win over the Detroit Lions.

Adam Thielen Finishes Week 16 With One Catch

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Adam Thielen caught just one of his five targets for six yards during the win over the New York Giants on Saturday. The veteran couldn't get anything going for fantasy managers in this one. However, in all fairness, T.J. Hockenson and Justin Jefferson didn't leave room for anyone else to get […]

Chuba Hubbard Runs For 125 Yards In Week 16 Win

Carolina Panthers running back Chuba Hubbard totaled 125 rushing yards on 12 attempts in a Week 16 victory over the Detroit Lions. Hubbard was surprisingly not targeted in the passing game after being utilized as a receiver in each of the past two games, but it did not matter much for fantasy purposes. The Panthers' […]

Justin Jefferson Breaks A Team Record On Saturday

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Justin Jefferson finished with 12 catches for a game-high 133 yards during the narrow win over the Giants on Saturday. He also found the end zone, scoring off a 17-yard pass from Kirk Cousins in the fourth quarter. Jefferson passed Randy Moss' single-season team receiving yards records in this one. He's […]

D'Onta Foreman Runs Wild In Week 16

Carolina Panthers running back D'Onta Foreman handled 21 carries for 165 yards and a touchdown in a 37-23 win over the Detroit Lions. Foreman followed up a nightmare performance in Week 15 with his highest rushing yardage total of the season against a stout Detroit run defense. The Panthers had their way on the ground […]

Dalvin Cook Has A Mediocre Showing In Week 16

Minnesota Vikings running back Dalvin Cook ran for 64 yards off 14 carries during the late win over the Giants on Saturday. He also caught three of his four targets for 13 yards.
