Kevin Durant Shoots 65 Percent From The Floor

Brooklyn Nets forward Kevin Durant was absurdly efficient through the first seven games of the season, and it continued again on Wednesday. In a 117-108 win over Atlanta, Durant recorded 32 points on 13-for-20 shooting with seven rebounds, five assists, a steal, a block, and two three-pointers. The 33-year old is now making 59.2 percent […]

Corbin Burnes 2021 Year-in-Review

One of the toughest decisions to make in 2021 drafts was what exactly to do with Corbin Burnes. We hadn't seen much of him at all in the Major Leagues before the 2020 season, and then we had less than 60 innings to go off of for Burnes from that 2020 season. While his performance […]

MMA DFS Value Picks - UFC 268: Usman vs. Covington 2 (Premium Content)

I don't think I need to remember you about what happened the last time we had a numbered UFC event. I mean, I could do so, but it's not that we have had a lot of time to forget about it: it took place last Saturday and, adding wood to our memory fire it was […]

Tua Tagovailoa Limited In Wednesday's Practice

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (finger, ribs) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice. He missed Weeks 3 through 5 with fractured ribs and is now dealing with a left finger injury. The 23-year-old was limited on Wednesday but is expected to be all systems go against the Houston Texans in Week 9. Tagovailoa has […]

David Njoku - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Cleveland Browns tight end David Njoku has looked like one of the most dangerous pass-catchers on the roster this season, averaging an explosive 16.15 yards per reception. Njoku will head on the road to take on the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 9 as a 2.5-point underdog in a game with a 46.5-point over/under. Cincinnati has […]

Austin Hooper - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Cleveland Browns tight end Austin Hooper has struggled to produce through much of the 2021 season. The veteran tight end will look to turn that around in Week 9's road matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals, although he draws a tough matchup as the Bengals are allowing the ninth-fewest fantasy points per game to opposing tight […]

Donovan Peoples-Jones - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Donovan Peoples-Jones (groin) returned to get in a limited practice on Wednesday after missing the previous two games with a groin injury suffered during warmups ahead of Week 7's contest. With Odell Beckham Jr.'s time in Cleveland appearing to be over, Peoples-Jones could be thrust into a starting role opposite Jarvis […]

Jarvis Landry - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jarvis Landry will take on the Cincinnati Bengals on the road in Week 9. Landry missed Wednesday's practice with a knee issue but all signs indicate that he will be able to suit up against the Bengals come Sunday. The Browns offense is likely to be without wide receiver Odell Beckham […]

D'Ernest Johnson - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Cleveland Browns running back D'Ernest Johnson stayed active in the game plan in Week 8 despite the return of Nick Chubb. Even with Chubb back in the fold, Johnson operated as the pass-catching back in the Cleveland offense, playing 30.5% of the snaps and seeing five touches. It appears that Cleveland will continue to pull […]

Nick Chubb - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Cleveland Browns running back Nick Chubb practiced fully on Wednesday as he appears to be completely over the calf issue that cost him games in Weeks 6 and 7. After posting 61 scoreless yards in Week 8, Chubb will look to get back into the end zone in a Week 9 matchup against the Cincinnati […]

Baker Mayfield - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

Cleveland Browns quarterback Baker Mayfield will take on a familiar foe when he goes up against the Cincinnati Bengals on the road in Week 9. Mayfield will most likely be playing without Odell Beckham Jr., who is away from the team and may have played his last game in a Cleveland uniform after his father […]

Talor Gooch Looks To Continue Hot Start At Mayakoba

Talor Gooch is off to a red-hot start to the 2021/22 PGA Tour season. In three events, Gooch has finishes of T4, T11 and T5 and is inside the top 10 on tour in strokes gained on approach, around the green, tee-to-green and total. Gooch has struggled off the tee, but that hasn't impacted his […]

Joaquin Niemann Has Great Value At Mayakoba

Joaquin Niemann is coming off his best start of the new season in Japan, where he finished T28 at the ZOZO Championship. Besides that, Niemann has made all three of his cuts on tour this season. At his DFS price this week, Niemann should be considered a steal. Niemann is 2/3 in his career at […]

Joel Embiid Goes For 18-9-7 Line In Win Over Bulls

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid put in a well-rounded effort during a 103-98 victory over the Chicago Bulls on Wednesday. The 27-year-old scored 18 points while collecting nine boards, seven assists, one block, and a steal over a season-high 34 minutes. The four-time All-Star was inefficient with his efforts, going just 6-for-18 from the field, […]

Zach LaVine Posts Fifth Straight 20-Point Game

Chicago Bulls shooting guard Zach LaVine pushed his 20-point game streak to five games during a 103-98 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday. The 26-year-old poured in 27 points to go along with nine rebounds, one assist, a steal, and five turnovers. The 2021 All-Star shot 11-for-24 from the field and went 2-for-7 from […]

DeMar DeRozan Has Another 37-Point Game

Chicago Bulls forward DeMar DeRozan posted his second consecutive 37-point effort during a 103-98 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday. The 32-year-old also secured 10 boards, an assist, and a steal to go along with the game-high 37 points. DeRozan shot 13-for-22 from the field and went 11-for-12 from the free-throw line. The first-year […]

Phillies Decline Options On Andrew McCutchen, Odubel Herrera

The Philadelphia Phillies declined 2022 club options on outfielders Andrew McCutchen ($15 million) and Odubel Herrera ($11.5 million) on Wednesday. McCutchen becomes a free agent, while the Phils retain the rights to Herrera, who is eligible for salary arbitration. They bought the two outfielders out for $3 million and $2.5 million, respectively. McCutchen hit just […]

Myles Turner Has Monster Night Versus Knicks

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner erupted for a career-high seven threes during a 111-98 win over the New York Knicks on Wednesday. The 25-year-old scored 25 points to go along with 13 rebounds, two assists, one steal, and three blocks. The two-time block champ shot 7-for-10 from three-point range and 9-for-14 overall from the field […]

Julius Randle Goes For 18 And 14 In Loss To Pacers

New York Knicks power forward Julius Randle posted his fifth double-double of the season during a 111-98 loss to the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday. He scored 18 points to go along with 14 boards, three assists, and one steal. The 27-year-old struggled shooting the ball as he went just 6-for-16 from the field and 0-for-2 […]

Jackie Bradley Jr. Staying In Milwaukee

Milwaukee Brewers outfielder Jackie Bradley Jr. will pick up his $9.5 million player option for the 2022 season. Bradley and the Brewers have a $12 million mutual option for the 2023 season with an $8 million buyout. He is a Gold Glove finalist, but Bradley endured a terrible year at the plate, slashing .163/.236/.261 with […]

Malcolm Brogdon Posts 17-8-7 Line In Return

Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon had a strong game in his return to action during the team's 111-98 victory over the New York Knicks on Wednesday. After missing three games with a tweaked hamstring, Brogdon scored 17 points to go along with eight rebounds, seven assists, and a block. The 29-year-old shot 6-for-12 from the […]

Brian Johnson - Week 9 Outlook for Fantasy Football

New Orleans Saints kicker Brian Johnson is not a strong play this week against Atlanta. Johnson has been serviceable in two games with New Orleans, going 5-for-5 in field goals and 4-for-5 in extra points. Nevertheless, this offense isn't high-powered and the issue at QB now might make it harder for the ball to be […]

Yusei Kikuchi Becomes A Free Agent

Left-handed starting pitcher Yusei Kikuchi informed the Seattle Mariners on Wednesday that he has declined his player option, which makes him a free agent heading into 2022. The Mariners also announced that they won't pick up the option on third baseman Kyle Seager. Kikuchi struggled in the second half of 2021 after going 6-4 with […]

Saints Defense A Great Play Against Falcons

The New Orleans Saints defense is a great play this week against the Falcons. They are matched up against a Matt Ryan who hasn't been explosive each week and is also lacking weapons aside from Kyle Pitts. Meanwhile, the Saints' defense wreaked havoc on Tom Brady last week, resulting in two picks and a fumble […]

Trevor Bauer Won't Opt Out Of His Contract

Los Angeles Dodgers starting pitcher Trevor Bauer will not opt out of his historic contract. The right-hander has $64 million left over two more years, and a decision to opt out now would have resulted in lengthy deferrals. Bauer also has the option to opt out after the 2022 season, and he'd take a $15 […]

Tucker Barnhart Traded To The Tigers

The Detroit Tigers acquired catcher Tucker Barnhart from the Cincinnati Reds on Wednesday in exchange for infield prospect Nick Quintana, according to sources. The Gold Glove catcher will fill a key area of need for the Tigers in 2022. Jake Rogers (elbow) is expected to miss most of next year following Tommy John surgery, and […]

Buster Posey To Announce Retirement Thursday

San Francisco Giants catcher Buster Posey, a seven-time All-Star, will announce his retirement on Thursday, according to sources. The 34-year-old will walk into the sunset after a decorated 12-year career that saw him win the 2010 National League Rookie of the Year, the 2012 NL MVP, four Silver Slugger awards, one Gold Glove and an […]
