George Hill Won't Play Sunday

Milwaukee Bucks guard George Hill (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Denver Nuggets. It appears the Bucks are going to play it safe with their veteran guard. Grayson Allen should more minutes coming his way on Sunday. His usage should increase as well, which makes him an interesting DFS option. Hill […]

Jeff Wilson Jr. Out For NFC Championship

San Francisco 49ers running back Jeff Wilson Jr. (ankle) is inactive for Sunday's NFC Championship against the Rams. The 26-year-old sustained a sprained ankle during Saturday's snowy Divisional-Round win over Green Bay and practiced sparingly throughout the week. Fortunately, Elijah Mitchell (knee) will play, with JaMycal Hasty listed behind him on the depth chart. However, […]

Luke Getsy To Serve As Bears New Offensive Coordinator

The Chicago Bears are hiring former Packers assistant Luke Getsy as its new offensive coordinator. Getsy most recently spent his last three seasons in Green Bay, where he served as the quarterback coach and passing coordinator. He will play a pivotal role in the development of Justin Fields, the No. 11 pick of the 2021 […]

Josh McDaniels Hired By Las Vegas

The Las Vegas Raiders are hiring Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels as its new head coach. McDaniels was one of the most sought-after coaching candidates for years by a number of teams after spending over a decade in New England, helping the Patriots capture six Super Bowls during his tenure. The 45-year-old will have his […]

Derrick Rose To Return Shortly After All-Star Break

New York Knicks guard Derrick Rose (ankle) is hopeful to return shortly after the All-Star break. He hasn't played since before Christmas, but is making progress towards a return. He shouldn't have any problems finding playing time off the bench. Kemba Walker and Immanuel Quickley are his main competition for playing time. Alec Burks should […]

C.J. Uzomah Out For The Rest Of The AFC Championship

Cincinnati Bengals tight end C.J. Uzomah (knee) will not return to Sunday's AFC Championship versus Kansas City. The 29-year-old failed to bring in either of his two targets before eventually hopping off the field on one leg in the first half. Fortunately, the belief is that Uzomah suffered an MCL sprain, so if Cincy makes […]

Josh Jackson Unlikely To Play Sunday

Detroit Pistons forward Josh Jackson (back) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He was able to play 16 minutes on Friday, but continues to deal with back tightness. There's a good chance he sits this one out, so he can try and recover from this issue. Frank Jackson and Rodney […]

Aaron Gordon Might Sit Versus Bucks

Denver Nuggets forward Aaron Gordon (illness) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. He was a late addition to the injury report due to a non-COVID related illness. Zeke Nnaji has been playing better lately and could slide into the starting five on Sunday. He's averaging 9.5 points and 3.8 rebounds […]

Lauri Markkanen To Remain Sidelined On Sunday

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Lauri Markkanen (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Detroit Pistons. This marks the third game in a row that Markkanen has missed due to a right ankle sprain. It wouldn't be surprising if Markkanen misses a few more games due to this issue. Dean Wade has been starting […]

Will Barton Probable For Sunday

Denver Nuggets forward Will Barton (illness) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. He sat out of Friday's game due to a non-COVID related illness. Austin Rivers has been seeing an increased role lately, but could have less minutes, assuming Barton returns here. Although, Rivers might still be worth holding even […]

LeBron James Expected To Miss Time

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (knee) is expected to miss some time. An MRI revealed left knee swelling, but the Lakers are going to be cautious with their superstar forward. Stanley Johnson is most likely going to remain in the starting five until James returns. Russell Westbrook and Anthony Davis will be asked to […]

Darrel Williams, Tyrann Mathieu Active For AFC Title Game

Kansas City Chiefs running back Darrel Williams (toe) and defensive back Tyrann Mathieu (concussion) are officially active and will play in the AFC Championship Game against the Cincinnati Bengals. Williams was inactive for last Sunday's Divisional-Round win versus the Buffalo Bills but is all systems go against the Bengals after practicing in a limited fashion […]

Jae Crowder Questionable For Sunday

Phoenix Suns forward Jae Crowder (wrist) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. He has missed each of the last three games due to a left wrist contusion. Cameron Johnson has been excellent lately and is worth streaming while Crowder is out. Fantasy managers should check the waiver wire and […]

Deandre Ayton Questionable Versus Spurs

Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. He has missed each of the five games while dealing with an ankle injury. JaVale McGee (knee) is questionable as well, which means Bismack Biyombo could be looking at significant minutes once again. He'll be a strong […]

Russell Westbrook Expected To Play Sunday

Los Angeles Lakers guard Russell Westbrook (knee) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. He was able to play through the issue during the Lakers last game. Anthony Davis (wrist) is expected to play as well, so Westbrook won't be forced to do everything. However, LeBron James (knee) is out, so […]

Malik Monk Probable Versus Hawks

Los Angeles Lakers guard Malik Monk (groin) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. He is expected to make his return to the court after a one-game absence. Wayne Ellington should shift back to the bench after a lackluster performance in Monk's place. Monk could be asked to take on a […]

Kelly Oubre Jr. Downgraded To Out

Charlotte Hornets forward Kelly Oubre Jr. (ankle) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. This marks the second game in a row that Oubre has missed due to a left ankle sprain. It's a shame because Oubre was starting to heat up before the injury. Gordon Hayward will be […]

Nicolas Batum Ruled Out Against Hornets

Los Angeles Clippers forward Nicolas Batum (back) won't be available for Sunday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Instead, Marcus Morris Sr. should take his place in the starting five. Justise Winslow will likely back him up, but Morris should benefit the most with Batum sidelined. Morris is looking like a strong streaming option and a […]

Anthony Davis Available Versus Hawks

Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (wrist) will be available for Sunday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. The superstar big man will make his return to the court after a one game absence. He'll be asked to play a bigger role than normal with LeBron James (knee) still sidelined. Fantasy managers should expect Davis to […]

Trae Young Cleared For Sunday

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (hip) has been cleared to play for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. This is great news since Young has been on fire lately. Over the last six games, Young is averaging 27.2 points, 8.7 assists, and 4.7 rebounds with 1.7 steals. The uptick in steals is nice to […]

De'Andre Hunter Available On Sunday

Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (ankle) is available for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. Hunter has been playing well lately, so the Hawks are certainly glad to have him available for this game. Fantasy managers should check the waiver wire and see if Hunter is still available because he's worth snagging right now. […]

Rams Looking To Bring Back Odell Beckham Jr.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. is expected to receive offers from various clubs during the offseason. However, Beckham's current team will certainly look to keep him, and with the salaries of Jared Goff, Todd Gurley II, and DeSean Jackson coming off the books, the money will be there to potentially make it […]
