Then the No. 24 car followed up with a fourth place result. Byron ultimately wound up fifth after rallying back. Four of the […]

Kyle Busch Finds Way Up To Fourth Place At Las Vegas

Kyle Busch started from the rear of the field on Sunday after his crash on Saturday. It turns out the No. 18 car had a rough Sunday afternoon as well. Despite all that, Busch found ways to rally every time. The younger Busch even managed to lead 49 laps out of the 274. He moved […]

Ross Chastain Falls Back In Overtime, Still Finishes Third

Ross Chastain led the most laps out of any driver on Sunday at Vegas. Chastain led 83 laps in all. Also, the Trackhouse Racing driver won Stage 2 convincingly. He started 18th on Sunday afternoon but wow was he downright fast at times. It seemed that Chastain had the car with his No. 1 Chevy. […]

Kyle Larson Finishes Second On Sunday In Vegas

Kyle Larson tried to play possum late in the race on Sunday and then strike. That strategy got thrown out the window when he was assessed a speeding penalty during his next-to-last pit stop. The No. 5 car rallied hard, but it was too late. He came up just short this time around -- a […]

Alex Bowman Wins At Vegas

Alex Bowman had one fast race car, especially early on. He easily won Stage 1 and then kind of just vanished for a good bit. The No. 48 car managed to lurk and lurk, and lurk. He struck at the right time as the Hendricks Motorsports Racing Driver led 16 laps in all on Sunday. […]

Spencer Knight Recalled By Panthers

Florida Panthers goaltender Spencer Knight has been recalled from the American Hockey League on Sunday.

Anton Forsberg Makes 24th Start Of The Season

Ottawa Senators goaltender Anton Forsberg will make his 24th start of the season on Sunday against Vegas. He'll look to produce his third consecutive outing with 40-plus saves. The Swedish netminder pushed away 45 shots in his last start against Florida but still had to take a 3-0 loss. Forsberg's record for the season stands […]

Mike Conley Resting Versus OKC

Utah Jazz guard Mike Conley (rest) won't play on Sunday against Oklahoma City. With Conley's club playing its first of back-to-back outings, the veteran will get the night off to rest. As a result, Trent Forrest will likely take his place in the rotation, with the 23-year-old averaging 11.3 points and 5.3 assists throughout four […]

Joe Snively Ruled Out For 4-6 Weeks

Washington Capitals left wing Joe Snively has undergone a procedure to address the scaphoid bone on his left wrist and will be out for four to six weeks, the club announced on Sunday.

Lance Stephenson To Miss Contest Versus Cleveland

Indiana Pacers forward Lance Stephenson (ankle) isn't available for Sunday's outing versus the Wizards. The veteran continues to be plagued by a left ankle sprain, so it's unknown when he will make it back.

Mike Smith Misses Practice With An Illness

Edmonton Oilers goaltender Mike Smith wasn't on the ice for Sunday's practice because of an illness, and he should be considered questionable for Monday's Battle of Alberta against the Flames. Smith made his first start in three games on Saturday against Montreal and it didn't go well, as he surrendered four goals on 28 shots […]

Kristaps Porzingis To Make Wizards Debut

Washington Wizards forward/center Kristaps Porzingis (knee) will make his team debut on Sunday against Indiana. The veteran has yet to play for his new club since being acquired from the Dallas Mavericks ahead of the trade deadline.

Zach Sawchenko Set For First Career Start

San Jose Sharks goaltender Zach Sawchenko is in line to make his first career start on Sunday against Anaheim. The 24-year-old has previously made four relief appearances this season, including on Saturday when he gave up two goals on eight shots in an 8-0 blowout loss to Nashville. He's saved 46 of 51 shots overall […]

Chris Duarte Still Not Healthy Enough To Play

Indiana Pacers guard Chris Duarte (toe) won't play on Sunday evening versus the Washington Wizards. The 24-year-old will miss his third straight game while battling left toe soreness. Lance Stephenson (ankle) will join him on the shelf, so Malcolm Brogdon, Tyrese Haliburton, and Buddy Hield should effectively handle most of the work on the offensive […]

Nathan Beaulieu Ruled Out Indefinitely

Winnipeg Jets defenseman Nathan Beaulieu has been ruled out indefinitely after he was unable to complete Friday's 4-3 overtime loss to Dallas due to a lower-body injury. The 29-year-old already missed 11 games recently with a lower-body problem. Logan Stanley will take his spot in the lineup on Sunday against the Rangers. The 23-year-old doesn't […]

Goga Bitadze To Return Versus Washington

Indiana Pacers center Goga Bitadze (foot) will play against Washington. The big man had been dealing with right foot soreness, and he didn't suit up on Friday night in Detroit as a result. Nonetheless, the team will certainly welcome him back with open arms, although it may cause the fantasy stock of Isaiah Jackson, who […]

Alex Tuch Suffers An Upper-Body Injury

Buffalo Sabres winger Alex Tuch suffered an upper-body injury in Sunday's 3-0 loss to Los Angeles, crashing into a goalpost in the third period. He was able to skate off the ice but didn't return to the game. The collision looked pretty ugly, but early reports are suggesting that Tuch avoided serious injury, with head […]

Malachi Flynn Won't Play Against Cleveland

Toronto Raptors guard Malachi Flynn (hamstring) won't play on Sunday against Cleveland. This is a tough blow, primarily since Flynn played so well in place of Fred VanVleet (knee), who is also out again, marking his fifth consecutive absence. As a result, Dalano Banton, who recorded just seven points during his only start of the […]

Fred VanVleet To Miss Another Game On Sunday

Toronto Raptors guard Fred VanVleet (knee) won't suit up on Sunday against the Cavaliers in Cleveland. VanVleet is now set to miss his fifth consecutive outing because of right knee soreness, with his next chance to see the floor coming on Wednesday in San Antonio.

Rashard Higgins Won't Return To Browns

The Cleveland Browns will not re-sign free-agent wide receiver Rashard Higgins, per Jeff Howe and Zac Jackson of The Athletic. The team could be facing some turnover at the wide receiver position.

Case Keenum Not Expected Back With Browns

The Cleveland Browns are expected to trade or release backup quarterback Case Keenum this offseason, per Jeff Howe and Zac Jackson of The Athletic. The veteran signal-caller was a fine backup option in 2021, going 2-0 through two starts in Baker Mayfield's absence. He finished the season with 47 completions, 462 yards, three touchdowns, and […]

Saints Could Trade For Jimmy Garoppolo

The New Orleans Saints, who seemed poised to re-sign Jameis Winston, could instead look into trading for San Francisco 49ers quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.

Chiefs Showing Interest In Mike Williams

The Kansas City Chiefs are researching wide receiver Mike Williams, according to Adam Beasley of Pro Football Network.
