NFL DFS Value Plays for Conference Championships (Premium Content)

All other Premium Tools can be accessed on the premium dashboard. Welcome to the Conference Championships, Rotoballers! In last week's intro, I complained that the Wild Card round was more of a quantity-driven and not a quality-driven weekend. However, the Divisional Round made up for it in every way possible. There were four games with […]

Alexandre Texier Expected To Miss Four Weeks

Columbus Blue Jackets forward Alexandre Texier (hand) will miss four weeks after suffering a fractured finger against the Flames on Wednesday night. Texier has scored a career-high 11 goals to go along with nine assists through 36 games, for a total of 20 points in his third NHL season. Texier is not on the radar […]

Evander Kane Agrees To Deal With Oilers

Evander Kane and the Edmonton Oilers have reached an agreement on a one-year contract for the remainder of the 2021-22 NHL season, according to his agent Dan Milstein. The deal includes a full no-move clause and will pay the forward approximately $1 million, per TSN Hockey Insider Darren Dreger. Kane's contract was terminated by the […]

Drake Batherson Will Miss Significant Time With Injury

Ottawa Senators forward Drake Batherson (ankle) is set to miss a minimum of two months as a result of the high ankle sprain that he sustained on a hit from Sabres goalie Aaron Dell on Tuesday night. Batherson collided with the goaltender as he was rounding the net and crashed into the end boards with […]

Elijah Mitchell Limited On Thursday

San Francisco 49ers running back Elijah Mitchell (knee) was able to get in a limited session during Thursday's practice. Fantasy managers shouldn't be alarmed as the team is likely just managing his reps. He doesn't appear to be in any danger of missing the NFC Championship game against the Los Angeles Rams this weekend. Mitchell […]

Jeff Wilson Jr. Limited During Thursday's Practice

San Francisco 49ers running back Jeff Wilson Jr. (ankle) was able to get in a limited practice on Thursday. He is recovering from an ankle injury he suffered during last week's Divisional Round. The 49ers are hopeful he can play this weekend versus the Los Angeles Rams. However, Wilson doesn't offer much fantasy value with […]

Van Jefferson Practices On Thursday

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Van Jefferson (knee) was able to suit up for practice on Thursday. He was limited during this session, but is on track to play against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday. Last week, Jefferson had two receptions for 29 yards during the Divisional Round victory. It sounds like Jefferson is […]

Andrew Whitworth Fully Practices On Thursday

Los Angeles Rams offensive tackle Andrew Whitworth (knee) was upgraded to full during Thursday's practice. The four-time Pro Bowl tackle is expected to return after sitting out the Divisional Round. His replacement Joe Noteboom (chest) played well in his absence, but also suffered an injury last week. Having Whitworth back on the offensive line would […]

Deandre Ayton Ruled Out For Friday's Contest

Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Ayton continues to sit out due to a lingering right ankle sprain, but hopefully he can return soon. In the meantime, Bismack Biyombo will be asked to make the start and play heavy minutes without Ayton available. Fellow […]

Rudy Gobert Ruled Out Versus Grizzlies

Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert (calf) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He suffered a left calf strain on Sunday and now will miss his third straight game because of it. His absence will mean Hassan Whiteside will get another start with Udoka Azubuike getting backup minutes. Whiteside has struggled […]

Donovan Mitchell Questionable For Friday

Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell (concussion) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He has missed each of the last five games due to a concussion. Mitchell didn't travel with the team for Friday's contest, so the chances of him suiting up seem unlikely. Joe Ingles would shift back to the […]

Kevin Porter Jr. Doesn't Practice Thursday

Houston Rockets guard Kevin Porter Jr. (illness) did not participate during Thursday's practice. Despite that, head coach Stephen Silas expects Porter to be available for Friday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He is dealing with a non-COVID related illness, so possibly he feels better before game-time tomorrow. Jalen Green would do more of the […]

Patrick Beverley Unlikely To Play Thursday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Patrick Beverley (ankle) is not expected to suit up for Thursday's game, according to head coach Chris Finch. Fantasy managers should expect Beverley to miss his third game in a row due to a right ankle sprain. Malik Beasley and Jaylen Nowell should have increased roles against the Golden State Warriors on […]

Brandon Ingram Doesn't Practice Thursday

New Orleans Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram (ankle) was unable to practice on Thursday. He has missed each of the last two games and could be looking at a third absence on Friday. Josh Hart (ankle) sat out of practice as well on Thursday. That means, Herbert Jones will continue to have strong streaming appeal until […]

Tobias Harris Questionable For Thursday

Philadelphia 76ers forward Tobias Harris (illness) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. He missed shootaround while he deals with a non-COVID related illness. The organization is hopeful Harris plays, but the final decision will likely be made after pregame warmups. Joel Embiid and Seth Curry would be asked to […]

Anthony Davis Available On Thursday

Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (knee) is available for Thursday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He was listed as probable coming into this game, so he was likely on the injury report as a precaution. The Lakers are going to need a big performance from Davis with LeBron James (knee) out on Thursday. Both […]

LeBron James Ruled Out Against 76ers

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Hopefully this is more of a rest day than anything else and James won't miss multiple games. Anthony Davis (knee) and Russell Westbrook will get a significant boost in value with James sidelined. Carmelo Anthony, Malik Monk, […]

In addition to playing for the White Sox, he also suited up […]
