He was 9-for-10 at the foul line and bagged a double-double with 11 rebounds. Harris also compiled three assists with four turnovers in 35 minutes. This was a […]

Justin Holiday Gets Hot Off The Bench

Indiana Pacers guard/forward Justin Holiday scored a season-high 27 points in 28 minutes off the bench against the Sixers on Saturday. He was unconscious from deep, going 6-for-8, and shot 9-for-11 overall from the field with a 3-for-4 record at the line. Holiday also pulled down a pair of rebounds and posted one assist with […]

Malcolm Brogdon Posts A Triple-Double Versus Philly

Indiana Pacers point guard Malcolm Brogdon enjoyed a triple-double night against the Sixers on Saturday, scoring 12 points with 10 rebounds and 10 assists. He had a mediocre scoring night because of poor 4-for-13 shooting and Brogdon's line included three turnovers in 37 minutes as well. The 28-year-old had just dropped a season-high 30 points […]

Furkan Korkmaz (SG/SF, PHI): Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 11% of leagues ANALYSIS: The Sixers got absolutely demolished by COVID-19 related stuff during the past few days/week with all of Joel Embiid, Tobias Harris, and Matisse Thybulle missing time. Enter your winner of the season so far precisely because of that, guard/forward/wing Furkan Korkmaz, he […]

Alex Caruso (PG/SG, CHI): Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 50% of leagues ANALYSIS: I don't Alex Caruso is ever going to reach some unreasonably high rostership in any sort of fantasy league. That's obviously because of 1) his role as a bench player in a loaded Chicago offense, 2) his own limited offensive numbers and […]

Otto Porter Jr. (SF/PF, GSW): Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 17% of leagues ANALYSIS: Before we get this thing started let me warn you about Otto Porter Jr.'s health and the potential of him missing games or being limited at least for the next few days. Just check an eye on his status as he got […]

Naz Reid (C, MIN): Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 11% of leagues ANALYSIS: Other than recently-acquired Taurean Prince, no other meaningful Wolves' big man is even 24 years old. That, of course, includes Naz Reid. And Reid, of course, has been a super-sub for Minny this season as he's playing really low minutes on a […]

Gary Payton II (PG/SG, GSW): Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 17% of leagues ANALYSIS: The upside is limited, and the availability/playing time will definitely go down as the season grows older. But hey, we have reached a point where GP2 is probably at the peak of his talents and fantasy value so it makes sense to […]

Cam Newton Can Compete For Starting Job In 2022

Carolina Panthers quarterback Cam Newton isn't merely a fill-in until Sam Darnold (shoulder) returns next season. Rather, Adam Schefter of ESPN writes, "Newton will have a chance to cement his status as Carolina's starter for the remainder of this year and potentially the 2022 season as well. If Newton plays well this season, he would […]

Sam Darnold Likely Done For The Season

Carolina Panthers quarterback Sam Darnold (neck) is likely done for the remainder of the year. The team placed the former first-round pick on Injured Reserve this past week and is "operating as if the quarterback will not play again this season," writes Adam Schefter of ESPN.com. Traded from the Jets to the Panthers this past […]

Eric Bledsoe (PG/SG, LAC): Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 38% of leagues ANALYSIS: In any other season, or in an injury-disabled sort of 2K-simulated league, Eric Bledsoe would probably be coming off the pine for the L.A. Clippers. Not this season, though, and not for the Kawhi-less Clips. Not only is Bledsoe starting games at […]

Colt McCoy In Line To Start On Sunday

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Colt McCoy should start in Week 10 due to Kyler Murray's (ankle) expected absence, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. This is the second straight week in which McCoy will be called into action. Last Sunday, he impressed against the 49ers, going 22-for-26 with 249 passing yards and one touchdown. He's a […]

Von Miller Won't Be Rushed Back

Los Angeles Rams linebacker Von Miller (ankle) won't be rushed back into action. In fact, ESPN.com's Adam Schefter reports that the Rams "will not play Miller unless the team believes his ankle injury is close to fully healed." Prior to being dealt from the Broncos to the Rams at the trade deadline, Miller had appeared […]

Derrick Rose (PG/SG, NYK): Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 58% of leagues ANALYSIS: Derrick Rose and Tom Thibodeau, match made in heaven. I know the rostership is nearing 60% and that's a no-no for the WW column, but I just couldn't resist the urge. Rose started the season nicely, then came crashing down to Earth […]

Devin Vassell (SG/SF, SAS): Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 28% of leagues ANALYSIS: The Spurs are definitely rebuilding. It doesn't take a genius to decipher their current operating algorithm. Just look at Devin Vassell's jump up in minutes per game (from 17 to 26) from last season to this his second one, and you'll get […]

Matisse Thybulle (SG/SF, PHI): Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 47% of leagues ANALYSIS: As ridiculous (but gratifying) as it is, nobody seems to be discussing anything related to the infamous COVID-19 virus these days when it comes to it in relation to the Association. About damn time, man. That doesn't mean COVID has kept from […]

James Robinson Remains True Game-Time Decision

Jacksonville Jaguars running back James Robinson (heel) is a true game-time decision for Sunday's game against the Colts, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. The 2020 undrafted free agent did not play last Sunday and missed practice this past Wednesday, but he was able to log limited sessions on Thursday and Friday. He has […]

Ryan Fitzpatrick Not Expected To Return This Season

Washington Football Team quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick (hip) is not expected to return in 2021, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. The veteran quarterback exited Week 1 and hasn't taken the field since then. Rapoport writes that Fitzpatrick "is dealing with swelling and pain in the hip and groin area." He also notes that the 38-year-old […]

Patrick Surtain II Expected To Play In Week 10

Denver Broncos cornerback Patrick Surtain II (knee) "is trending in the right direction to play" in Week 10, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.

Tim Patrick On Track To Play In Week 10

Denver Broncos wide receiver Tim Patrick (knee) "should play" on Sunday despite being listed as questionable, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. The 27-year-old missed practice on Wednesday before logging limited sessions on Thursday and Friday. Through nine games this season, he has hauled in 34 passes for 509 yards and four touchdowns. Although he's […]

Rondale Moore Expected To Play On Sunday

Arizona Cardinals rookie wide receiver Rondale Moore (neck) "should be OK" to play against the Panthers in Week 10, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Moore did not practice on Wednesday or Thursday before logging a limited session on Friday, so the fact that he should suit up is very good news. The 21-year-old has […]

DeAndre Hopkins Expected To Miss Week 10

Arizona Cardinals wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins (hamstring) is not expected to play against the Panthers on Sunday, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. The star wideout's status will be confirmed during pregame warmups. He has appeared in eight games this season, catching 35 passes for 486 yards and seven touchdowns. With Hopkins, Kyler Murray (ankle), and […]

Kyler Murray Unlikely To Play On Sunday

Arizona Cardinals quarterback Kyler Murray (ankle) is officially a game-time decision for Week 10 vs. the Panthers, but NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that the team is "pessimistic" about his status. Additionally, he notes that "Murray wants to take it up to game-time and Arizona will give him a chance." Still, as of now, it's […]

Rhamondre Stevenson Has A "Real Shot" To Play In Week 10

New England Patriots running back Rhamondre Stevenson (concussion) has a "real shot" to play Sunday against the Cleveland Browns. He was not ruled out for Week 10 and could be cleared to play on Sunday morning. Teammate running back Damien Harris (head) remained in concussion protocol and was ruled out for Sunday's game. If Stevenson […]

Mason Rudolph Starting Week 10 Against The Lions

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph will start Sunday's game against the Detroit Lions after quarterback Ben Roethlisberger was placed on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Saturday.

Week 9 was disappointing in fantasy but delivered a few highly entertaining games. Monday’s game between Pittsburgh and Chicago looked rough on paper but turned into a highly entertaining game. The Steelers won on a late field goal, but Chicago finally got a stellar performance for Justin Fields. The rookie was able to generate several […]
