BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 12% of Leagues ANALYSIS: DeSean Jackson has been waived by the Rams, but he was a non-factor in the offense regardless. He saw just 6% of snaps in Week 7 and didn't play any in Week 8. That has let second-year man Van Jefferson thrive in […]

D'Angelo Russell Ruled Out For Wednesday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard D'Angelo Russell (ankle) won't play on Wednesday against the Clippers.
