Trevor Zegras Keeps Scoring For Anaheim In Overtime Loss

Anaheim Ducks center Trevor Zegras played 22:14 on Friday night against the Arizona Coyotes. He had quite a night in defeat with one goal and one assist in the 6-5 loss to Arizona. Zegras had four shots on goal and three scoring chances. The center is up to eight goals and 25 points in 30 […]

Hampus Lindholm Goes Off Against Arizona Friday

Anaheim Ducks defenseman Hampus Lindholm had not scored even a point in his last six games. That mattered little on Friday as the Swedish player struck twice and added an assist too. Yes, Arizona did win in overtime but Lindholm's second goal which was on the man advantage secured a point for Anaheim in what […]

Phil Kessel Delivers Goal And Assist Friday In Win

Arizona Coyotes right-winger Phil Kessel still can produce offensively with the best of them at times. He scored once and added an assist in Arizona's 6-5 overtime win in Anaheim on Friday. The two points gave Kessel five over his previous six games. He has five goals and 12 assists in 29 contests this season. […]

Travis Boyd Gets Three Points In Win Friday

Arizona Coyotes center Travis Boyd played on a line with Clayton Keller and Phil Kessel. The results were impressive as Boyd notched a goal and two assists on Friday in 16:32 of ice time. He had two shots on goal while blocking two shots. Boyd had two games where he did absolutely nothing on the […]

Clayton Keller Lifts Arizona To Rare Win Friday

Arizona Coyotes right-winger Clayton Keller had fired eight shots on goal in his previous game against the New York Rangers. He followed up that two-point effort with three on Friday. That included two goals as one was the game winner in a wild 6-5 triumph in Anaheim. Keller "only" had seven shots on goal while […]

NFL DFS Value Plays: Week 15 Bargain Bin for DraftKings, FanDuel and Yahoo

Welcome to the Week 15 Sunday slates edition of RotoBaller's NFL DFS Bargain Bin, where the goal is to touch on some potentially mispriced players across the industry that find themselves in favorable match-ups and/or suddenly expanded roles. Before we go NFL DFS Bargain Bin hunting, a few particulars about format and content: The nature […]

Mike Gesicki - Week 15 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Miami Dolphins tight end Mike Gesicki could be in for a big game against the New York Jets in Week 15. The Dolphins are likely to be without rookie wide receiver Jaylen Waddle due to COVID protocols. That being said, Gesicki and DeVante Parker should be asked to carry the load in the passing attack. […]

Mack Hollins - Week 15 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Mack Hollins has seen his role in the offense decrease rapidly over the last few weeks. In fact, Hollins has seen one target or less in three of his last four games. The return of DeVante Parker has basically ended any value Hollins had at all. However, stud rookie wide receiver […]

Albert Wilson - Week 15 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Albert Wilson is likely to see more involvement against the New York Jets in Week 15. Stud rookie wideout Jaylen Waddle is unlikely to play while on the COVID list. That means, Wilson would be the next man in line behind DeVante Parker on the depth chart. Over his last two […]

DeVante Parker - Week 15 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Miami Dolphins wide receiver DeVante Parker could be headed towards a big game against the New York Jets in Week 15. Rookie wideout Jaylen Waddle is unlikely to suit up due to COVID protocols. That being said, Parker could should see more targets heading his way without Waddle available. Before the bye week, Parker hauled […]

James O'Shaughnessy - Week 15 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end James O'Shaughnessy is a decent streaming option against the Texans in Week 15. O'Shaughnessy hasn't produced much since reprising a starting role in Week 13, but he's seen six targets in both games since then, so there is hope. Additionally, the veteran tight end has an excellent matchup against a Texans […]

Malcolm Brown - Week 15 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Miami Dolphins running back Malcolm Brown (quad) resumed practicing this week. That is great news after Brown has missed each of the last six games. Although, it's uncertain if he'll suit up for the Week 15 matchup against the New York Jets. Both Myles Gaskin and Salvon Ahmed have returned off the COVID list. That […]

Laviska Shenault Jr. - Week 15 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Laviska Shenault Jr. is just a low-upside WR5 play against Houston in Week 15. There's no sugarcoating it, Shenault has been a stone-cold bust this season while averaging just eight PPR points per contest. The once-trendy breakout pick's matchup is fairly neutral this week against a Texans team allowing the NFL's […]

Tua Tagovailoa - Week 15 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa has looked much better since returning from injury. In fact, he has five touchdowns with only one interception over his last three games. Now, he'll get a matchup against the New York Jets defense in Week 15. A defense that is allowing the sixth-most fantasy points to quarterbacks this season. […]

Laquon Treadwell - Week 15 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Laquon Treadwell is a quality WR4 play against Houston in Week 15. Treadwell has quietly come out of nowhere to record at least four catches and 53 yards in three games in a row since earning a full-time role on the outside, and he's made several long catches in that period […]

Marvin Jones Jr. - Week 15 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Marvin Jones Jr. is a decent WR4 play against the Texans in Week 15. Jones broke out of a prolonged slump last week with a 70-yard performance, and his outlook can only improve with his former incompetent head coach Urban Meyer out of the way. The veteran's matchup against the Texans […]

Trevor Lawrence - Week 15 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence is a risky Week 15 option to say the least. Lawrence's struggles have been well-chronicled this season, as he's averaged just 11.5 fantasy points per game, but it is still possible that he could finish strong with incompetent head coach Urban Meyer out of the way after his firing earlier […]

Corey Kispert Questionable To Suit Up Saturday

Washington Wizards shooting guard/small forward Corey Kispert (quad) has been listed as questionable to play in Saturday's contest vs. Utah due to a left quad contusion. Kispert has played a limited role off the bench in his rookie year, contributing 3.9 points across 13.1 minutes per game. The 15th overall pick in the 2021 NBA […]

EPL DFS Lineup Picks for FanDuel Main Slate (12/18/21) - English Premier League Soccer

Welcome back, RotoBallers! Professional sports are becoming very messy due to lots of positive Covid tests recently, and the EPL is not exempt. I originally began writing this article when there were five games still on the main slate. Then Thursday afternoon it got announced that five games this weekend would be postponed due to […]

Derrick Rose Earns Questionable Tag For Saturday

New York Knicks point guard Derrick Rose (ankle) has been listed as questionable to play in Saturday's game against the Celtics due to a sore right ankle. Rose has been bumped back into the starting five over the past three games due to widespread injuries and COVID-19 issues on the roster, so an absence would […]

Kent Bazemore Returns To Starting Five Friday

Los Angeles Lakers small forward Kent Bazemore has been bumped into the starting group for Friday's contest against Minnesota. Bazemore will be making his first start since Nov. 12, having since played sparingly off the bench. Even during his stint as a starter to begin the year, Bazemore scored in double figures just twice, severely […]

Markus Howard Sustains Knee Sprain, Out At Least Six Weeks

Denver Nuggets point guard Markus Howard (knee) has been diagnosed with a sprained left knee, an ailment that will keep him out for at least the next six weeks before the team's training staff further evaluates him. Howard, once a prolific scorer at Marquette during his college days, has been utilized sparingly off the bench […]

Steelers Defense A Decent Option In Week 15

The Pittsburgh Steelers defense will take on the Tennessee Titans at home in Week 15. Pittsburgh got some good news this week as star pass rusher T.J. Watt (groin) was able to get in full practices on Thursday and Friday after he left Week 14's loss early with a groin injury. The team is also […]

Malik Beasley Draws First Start Of Season Friday

Minnesota Timberwolves shooting guard Malik Beasley has been bumped into the starting five for Friday's contest against the Lakers with Anthony Edwards (health and safety protocols) unavailable. After serving as a near full-time starter over his first year and a half with the Timberwolves, Beasley has scuffled in his transition to the second unit, having […]

Chris Boswell - Week 15 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Pittsburgh Steelers kicker Chris Boswell will take on the Tennessee Titans at home in Week 15. Boswell missed just his second field goal of the season in a loss to the Minnesota Vikings in Week 14. The Titans represent a neutral matchup for Boswell in Week 15 as they are allowing the 13th-most fantasy points […]

Khem Birch Unlikely To Suit Up Saturday

Toronto Raptors center Khem Birch (knee) has been tagged as questionable to play in Saturday's game against Golden State, but he has expressed doubt that he will be healthy enough to play. Birch has not suited up since the Raptors last clashed with the Warriors back on Nov. 21, paving the way for Chris Boucher […]

Pat Freiermuth - Week 15 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth will suit up against the Tennessee Titans at home in Week 15. Freiermuth has not been racking up gaudy yardage totals this season but he has emerged as one of the team's top options in the red zone when they decide to throw the ball. The rookie tight end […]
