Seiya Suzuki To Sit Out On Friday

Chicago Cubs outfielder Seiya Suzuki (rest) is out of the starting lineup for Friday's game against the Arizona Diamondbacks. This appears to be a routine day off for Suzuki who has struggled at the plate lately. He has struck out in nine of his last 25 plate appearances, so he could use a day off. […]

Dusko Todorovic Set Up For Difficult Matchup

After back-to-back losses, Dusko Todorovic (11-2) earned a big first-round knockout of Maki Pitolo in December of last year.

Facing a fellow striker in Chidi Njokuani, this bout has all the potential in the world of […]

Chidi Njokuani Can Continue His Run On Saturday

Very few fighters have had an Octagon debut like Chidi Njokuani (21-7) had in February, when he earned a first-round knockout in 16 seconds. Prior to that, Njokuani earned his way to the UFC by collecting a second-round TKO on the Contender Series. Beyond proving his knockout ability can translate to the big stage, 13 […]

Jayson Tatum Continues Hot Stretch

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum nearly dropped 30 points in Game 1, but left more in the tank for Thursday's Game 2 contest. The All-Star forward finished with 27 points, five rebounds, and five assists in the victory over the Miami Heat. Tatum went 8-for-13 from the floor and knocked down four triples along the […]

Marcus Smart Nearly Posts Triple-Double

Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart put together an outstanding performance during Thursday's Game 2 against the Miami Heat. Smart came into this contest a little banged up with a right foot sprain.

Polyanna Viana Looking To Continue Her Run

After dropping three fights in a row, Polyanna Viana (12-4) is looking to win her third straight bout on Saturday in her matchup with Tabatha Ricci. There are very few fighters with a 100% finish rate in their career, but Viana is one of those, with all 12 of her wins coming via the finish […]

Jimmy Butler Drops 29 Points In Loss

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler was basically the lone bright spot for his team during Thursday's Game 2 against the Boston Celtics. The All-Star forward finished with 29 points, six rebounds, and three assists in 48 minutes during their loss. This was a solid performance from Butler, but sadly his teammates weren't able to bring […]

Running Back Risers and Fallers for Fantasy Football - FFPC Best Ball ADP Analysis

P.J. Tucker Forced Out Early Due To Injury

Miami Heat forward P.J. Tucker (knee) was forced to exit early during Thursday's Game 2 against the Boston Celtics. The veteran forward lasted 22 minutes before exiting due to a left knee contusion.
