Kyle Lowry In Danger Of Sitting Against Indiana

Miami Heat guard Kyle Lowry (ankle) is listed as questionable heading into Saturday's matchup in Indiana. Lowry sprained his left ankle during the opening night rout over the reigning NBA Champs, the Bucks. It wasn't Lowry's night on Wednesday, as he would go on to finish with only five points on a rough 1-for-8 shooting […]

Danilo Gallinari Questionable On Saturday

Atlanta Hawks forward Danilo Gallinari (shoulder) is deemed questionable ahead of Saturday's matchup against Cleveland. The veteran wasn't in the lineup on Wednesday during the season opener against the Mavericks as he continues to be bothered by left shoulder soreness. His absence allowed Solomon Hill to see some additional minutes on the floor, although he […]

John Tavares Gets First Goal Of The Campaign

Toronto Maple Leafs center John Tavares got to celebrate his first goal of the season in Friday's 5-3 loss to San Jose. The Maple Leafs captain made it 4-3 13:39 into the third period, but the team couldn't get the equalizer. Tavares produced four total shots in the game and had one hit in 16:12 […]

Timo Meier Enjoys Another Multi-Point Outing

San Jose Sharks winger Timo Meier posted a goal and an assist in Friday's 5-3 win at Toronto, recording his second multi-point performance of the season. The Swiss speedster was plus-three for the contest and had two shots with two blocks and three hits. The Sharks improved to 4-0-0 for the season and Meier has […]

Logan Couture Leads The Charge Versus Toronto

San Jose Sharks center Logan Couture had a wonderful three-point performance against Toronto on Friday, finishing a 5-3 victory with two goals and an assist. He scored the game's first and last goal, adding an assist on Jonathan Dahlen's third career marker. The Sharks captain has now scored in back-to-back games and boasts seven points […]

Mattias Janmark Is Ready For His Season Debut

Vegas Golden Knights forward Mattias Janmark looks set for his season debut on Friday against Edmonton. The 28-year-old started the season on the COVID-19 list but is now ready to play. Janmark joins a depleted attack that currently doesn't have the services of Max Pacioretty (lower body) and Mark Stone (lower body). It should give […]

Alec Martinez Misses Friday's Action

Vegas Golden Knights defenseman Alec Martinez (undisclosed) won't be in the lineup for Friday's home game against Edmonton. The two-time Stanley Cup champion got hurt in Wednesday's 3-1 loss to St. Louis and is considered day-to-day. Martinez has made a strong start to the season with two points, four shots, six hits and five blocks […]

Jonathan Quick Earns Second Start Of The Year

Los Angeles Kings goaltender Jonathan Quick will look to ruin Dallas' home opener on Friday. The veteran netminder is getting his second start of the campaign after getting beaten by Minnesota 3-2 last week. Quick looks past his best these days and has registered a below .900 save percentage in two of the last three […]

Joel Embiid Playing Against Brooklyn

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) will play on Friday against the visiting Nets. Embiid continues to deal with right knee soreness after he tore his meniscus during the postseason over the Summer. It's unknown how many minutes Embiid will log, so DFS managers may want to consider other options. However, he remains a must-start […]

Mikko Koskinen Makes Another Start Friday Night

Edmonton Oilers goaltender Mikko Koskinen will get another start on Friday against Vegas after beating Arizona 5-1 on Thursday. The Oilers have Mike Smith (lower body) on Injured Reserve, so the Finnish veteran has to hold down the fort. He's done it in spectacular style so far, notching two wins with a 1.37 goals-against average […]

Joel Kiviranta, Luke Glendening Join Tyler Seguin's Line

Dallas Stars forwards Joel Kiviranta and Luke Glendening will skate with Tyler Seguin in Friday's home opener versus the Kings. Head coach Rick Bowness started the season with all of his big guns together on the same line, but Alexander Radulov will now join Roope Hintz and Jacob Peterson, while Jamie Benn gets to play […]

Raiders Defense - Week 7 Outlook for Fantasy Football

The Las Vegas Raiders defense is looking to have another big week as they host the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday. Vegas' d-corps was somewhat inconsistent through the first few weeks of the season but had a huge boost in Week 6's 34-24 victory over the Denver Broncos. In last week's game, Vegas pressured veteran quarterback […]

Braden Holtby Makes Fourth Start Of The Season

Dallas Stars goaltender Braden Holtby will record his fourth start of the season in Friday's home opener against Los Angeles. The 32-year-old has done well so far with a 1.75 goals-against average and a .947 save percentage. Holtby boasts a 2-2-1 career record against the Kings with a 2.41 goals-against average, a .916 save percentage […]

Josh Jacobs - Week 7 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs is looking to be a difference-maker in Week 7 against the Philadelphia Eagles. The 23-year-old had his most productive game of the season against the Denver Broncos last week, logging 16 carries for 53 yards and one touchdown in Sunday's 34-24 victory. Jacobs has the opportunity to build […]

Scottie Barnes Getting Another Start On Friday

Toronto Raptors forward Scottie Barnes is in the starting lineup for Friday's matchup against Boston. This will mark the rookie's second-straight start. He played relatively well against the Wizards during his league debut, finishing with 12 points and nine boards, one rebound shy of a double-double. He did have six turnovers, which was an issue, […]

Precious Achiuwa Starting Again On Friday

Toronto Raptors forward/center Precious Achiuwa will start during Friday's matchup against the Celtics. Achiuwa was in the starting rotation during the team's opener against the Wizards on Wednesday. However, foul trouble was a theme, and he also logged only 19 minutes of work but still managed to finish with seven boards, six points, and a […]

Bobby Portis, Semi Ojeleye Will Miss Saturday’s Contest

Milwaukee Bucks power forward/center Bobby Portis (hamstring) and power forward Semi Ojeleye (calf) have been ruled out for Saturday's game against San Antonio. The duo have yet to appear during the regular season for Milwaukee, as Jordan Nwora has been the primary beneficiary of added playing time. The absences of Porter and Ojeleye are particularly […]

Kenyan Drake - Week 7 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Las Vegas Raiders running back Kenyan Drake will look to be a difference-maker in Week 7 against the Philadelphia Eagles, but it isn't clear how much of an impact he will actually have. The Alabama product was all over the place last week against the Denver Broncos, logging four carries for 34 yards and one […]

Ricky Rubio Draws Start For Friday’s Contest

Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Ricky Rubio has been shifted into the starting five for Friday's game against Charlotte, taking the place of the injured Darius Garland (ankle). Rubio excelled off the bench in the season opener Wednesday, logging a double-double 25 minutes. Maybe most encouraging for fantasy managers is that Rubio knocked down three triples […]

Joel Embiid Has 50/50 Shot To Play On Friday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) has a "50/50" chance to play during Friday's Atlantic Division clash against the visiting Nets. The MVP candidate is currently dealing with right knee soreness, and he will go throughout warmups before Doc Rivers makes the final determination regarding his availability. Embiid suffered a meniscus tear during the postseason, […]

Darius Garland Won't Play Against Charlotte

Updating an earlier report, Cleveland Cavaliers guard Darius Garland (ankle) has been downgraded to out against the Hornets on Friday night. The 21-year-old sprained his ankle during the opening night loss to the Memphis Grizzlies and had been riding a questionable tag ever since. His next chance to make it back will come on Saturday […]

Brook Lopez Remains Out For Saturday’s Game

Milwaukee Bucks center Brook Lopez (back) will miss his second consecutive game Saturday vs. the Spurs as he continues to battle back soreness. Milwaukee opted to start Giannis Antetokounmpo as its de facto center Thursday, which could very well be the case again with no true backup center available. Sandro Mamukelashvili and Jordan Nwora stand […]

Darius Garland Remains Questionable Against Charlotte

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Darius Garland (ankle) remains questionable against the visiting Pacers on Friday evening. The 21-year-old sprained his left ankle during the opening night matchup against the Memphis Grizzlies. However, he still looked fantastic despite the ailment, finishing with 13 points and 12 dimes. If he can't see the floor against Indiana, Ricky Rubio […]

Darren Waller - Week 7 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Darren Waller is looking to be a difference-maker in Week 7 against the Philadelphia Eagles. The towering TE caught 5-of-5 targets for 59 yards in last week's victory over the Denver Broncos, continuing his trend of being one of Vegas' most important offensive weapons. Darius Slay and the Eagles defense […]

Josh Richardson, Al Horford Set For Season Debuts Friday

Boston Celtics shooting guard/small forward Josh Richardson (migraine) and power forward/center Al Horford will make their respective season debuts during Friday's contest against the Raptors. Richardson figures to lead Boston's second unit, while Horford, who is expected to play just 20-25 minutes, shifts into the starting lineup. With Horford back in the mix, Grant Williams moves […]

Nick Foligno, Connor Clifton Come Out Of The Lineup

Boston Bruins winger Nick Foligno (upper body) and defenseman Connor Clifton won't play on Friday against the Sabres. Foligno got injured in Wednesday's 6-3 loss to Philadelphia and is day-to-day, while it looks like Clifton will simply be scratched for the game. At least there aren't any injury reports regarding the 26-year-old blueliner, who's gone […]

Terry Rozier Questionable On Friday Evening

Charlotte Hornets guard Terry Rozier (ankle) is classified as questionable heading into the Friday night clash in Cleveland. The 27-year-old continues to deal with the lingering effects of a left ankle sprain, and he didn't play during the team's opener against the Pacers on Wednesday as a result. If he does sit out again, Kelly […]

Jrue Holiday Earns Probable Designation For Saturday

Milwaukee Bucks point guard Jrue Holiday (heel) is once again trending toward making a return to action, this time for Saturday's contest against San Antonio. The Bucks remained extremely cautious with their PG early in the year by holding him out of Thursday's game, which allowed George Hill to nab a start. When active, Holiday […]

Bryan Edwards - Week 7 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Bryan Edwards could have a surprising impact in Week 7 against the Philadelphia Eagles. Edwards had two catches for 67 yards in last weekend's win over the Denver Broncos, and while he wasn't targeted as much as Vegas' other receivers both of his catches were pivotal in moving the Raiders […]
