Karel Vejmelka Starts For Arizona On Friday Night

Arizona Coyotes goaltender Karel Vejmelka gets a home start against the Vegas Golden Knights on Friday night. The Czechoslovakian goalie has not had it easy winning just twice in 12 decisions. However, Vejmelka has a solid 2.80 goals-against average along with a .916 save percentage. He will be going for his third straight win and […]

Harrison Barnes Doubtful To Play Saturday

Sacramento Kings forward Harrison Barnes (foot) is listed as doubtful for Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. He is expected to miss his fifth straight game while dealing with a right foot sprain. Barnes recently joined the G League roster to get some reps in. The hope is that Barnes will be able to […]

Brandon Clarke Joins Injury Report For Saturday

Memphis Grizzlies forward Brandon Clarke (knee) has been added to the injury report ahead of Saturday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. He is currently listed as questionable due to right knee soreness. Kyle Anderson (back) is already ruled out, which means Jaren Jackson Jr. could be looking at heavy minutes. Also, Xavier Tillman could be […]

Kyle Anderson Ruled Out For Saturday

Memphis Grizzlies forward Kyle Anderson (back) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. This is a full day before tip-off, so Anderson could be looking at missing some time. De'Anthony Melton scored 19 points in Anderson's absence last night. Tyus Jones has also seen an increase in playing time. However, Melton […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Doubtful Against Heat

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (calf) is listed as doubtful for Saturday's game against the Miami Heat. He sat out of Thursday's game due to a calf issue and it looks like Antetokounmpo will possibly miss another game. The hope is that he won't be sidelined any longer than Saturday's contest. Pat Connaughton started on […]

Rashaad Penny, Travis Homer Questionable

Seattle Seahawks running backs Rashaad Penny (hamstring) and Travis Homer (calf) are questionable to face the San Francisco 49ers in Week 13 on Sunday. However, both running backs practiced in full on Friday and seem to be in line to return after missing the Week 12 loss to the Washington Football Team. Chris Carson (neck) […]

Kristaps Porzingis Out Against Pelicans

Dallas Mavericks center Kristaps Porzingis (knee) is listed as out for Friday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. He appears to be dealing with a minor knee issue, so Porzingis will sit this one out as a precaution. Willie Cauley-Stein (personal) will join Porzingis on the sideline for this game. That means, Maxi Kleber and […]

Alex Collins Officially Questionable For Week 13

Seattle Seahawks running back Alex Collins (abdomen) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Week 13 against the division-rival San Francisco 49ers. Collins should be fine to play, but he's averaging only 3.61 yards per carry on 88 rushing attempts since taking over for Chris Carson (neck) in Week 5 […]

DK Metcalf Ready To Go For Week 13

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver DK Metcalf (foot) was removed from the final injury report for Week 13 against the San Francisco 49ers. Metcalf had two limited practices this week sandwiched around a full practice on Thursday. He's been managing a foot injury for most of the season, but he hasn't missed any games. Through the […]

Christian Wood Officially Available On Friday

Houston Rockets center Christian Wood (ankle) is officially available on Friday versus Orlando. The 26-year-old sprained his right ankle during Wednesday's showdown against OKC and did not return. It's relatively surprising that he's playing, especially since he was recently wearing a walking boot, though it's certainly positive news for fantasy managers. Nonetheless, with a favorable […]

Anfernee Simons Won't Play Saturday

Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Boston Celtics. He was seen leaving the arena in a boot after Thursday's contest. The hope is that Simons won't miss significant time especially with Damian Lillard (abdominal) sidelined as well. That means, Dennis Smith Jr. will be tasked […]

Sneaky Starts, Pivot Plays and Post-Waiver Pickups for Week 13

Week 13 might be the unluckiest week for fantasy football general managers. Forget about the history of the number 13. Forget about the fact four more teams are on bye.

49ers Defense To Be Short-Handed Sunday

San Francisco 49ers linebacker Dre Greenlaw (groin) has been ruled out for the Week 13 game against the Seattle Seahawks, while linebacker Fred Warner (hamstring) is doubtful to play.

Snap Count and Usage Analysis for Week 13

Snap counts are not the be-all-end-all for fantasy production, but they paint a clear picture with the necessary context. Every snap is an opportunity for a player to make his presence felt and if their snaps go up or down, you get an idea of what the team thinks of their skill set. A running […]

Fantasy Football Offenses To Avoid Down The Stretch

Fantasy football is an easy game, right? Just start the right players and profit! If only it were that easy. With injuries mounting, fantasy managers are left scrambling to their bench or the waiver wire to find suitable replacements. However, don't have that player come from the wrong teams. In fantasy football, the state of […]

JaMycal Hasty To Return In Week 13

San Francisco 49ers running back JaMycal Hasty (ankle) returned to a full practice on Friday and was removed from the final injury report for Week 13 against the Seattle Seahawks.

Josh Hart Listed As Out For Friday

New Orleans Pelicans forward Josh Hart (knee) is listed as out for Friday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. This marks the second game in a row that Hart has missed due to left knee soreness. Hart has surprisingly been a solid fantasy option this season, but continues getting sidelined by injuries. Garrett Temple is expected […]

Joe Haden To Miss Another Game

Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Joe Haden (foot) missed practice all week and will miss his third straight game in Week 13 against the Baltimore Ravens. Haden hasn't played since he suffered a foot injury in the Week 10 tie with the Detroit Lions, but at least Pittsburgh has All-Pro safety Minkah Fitzpatrick back. Ravens No. 1 […]

Kevin Porter Jr. Will Play On Friday

Houston Rockets guard Kevin Porter Jr. (thigh) is available and will start in Friday's game against the Orlando Magic. This is quite surprising considering it was reported that Porter was expected to miss time. He exited Wednesday's game due to a thigh issue and will return to the court on Friday. Sadly, Porter has struggled […]

Devin Duvernay Good To Go Against Steelers

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Devin Duvernay (thigh) practiced in full on Friday and doesn't carry an injury designation into the Week 13 game against the division-rival Pittsburgh Steelers. Meanwhile, receiver Miles Boykin (finger) is doubtful after being limited in practice all week. Unless your fantasy league rewards points for kickoff and punt return yards, Duvernay […]

Karl-Anthony Towns Will Not Play Against Brooklyn

Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns (tailbone) won't play on Friday against Brooklyn. The 26-year-old is only dealing with a bruised tailbone, so there is a good chance he could be back on Monday against the visiting Hawks. Nonetheless, Naz Reid will fill the void and is always in the running for a double-digit performance on […]

Odell Beckham Jr. Expects To Play Sunday

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. (hip), who is questionable for Week 13 against the Jacksonville Jaguars with a hip-pointer injury, said he expects to play on Sunday. "Been through worse!" Beckham said. The fact that the 29-year-old returned to a limited practice on Friday after sitting out Thursday's session also bodes well […]

James Robinson Given A Questionable Designation

Jacksonville Jaguars running back James Robinson (heel, knee) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for this weekend's game against the Los Angeles Rams. It would be a pretty big surprise if Robinson weren't active for the Week 13 contest this Sunday, as he's played the last three games with heel […]

DeSean Jackson Questionable For Sunday's Game

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver DeSean Jackson (calf) is listed as questionable for the Week 13 game against the Washington Football Team. Jackson was limited in practice on Wednesday and Friday and sat out on Thursday. The 35-year-old speedy deep threat seems to be trending towards playing on Sunday, but fantasy managers will want to […]
