J.D. McKissic To Once Again Have Big Role On Third Down?
Washington Football Team running back J.D. McKissic was active in the team's first preseason game on Thursday but was used sparingly.

Leonard Fournette Listed Second On Depth Chart
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette has been placed below fellow back Ronald Jones II on the team's first depth chart that was released on Wednesday.

Mike Muscala Signs New Deal With OKC
Forward Mike Muscala agreed to a two-year deal on Thursday to remain in Oklahoma City. The 30-year-old averaged 9.7 points, 3.8 rebounds, and shot 37 percent from deep throughout 35 contests with the Thunder last season. Although he has had some productive outings over the years, he isn't consistent enough to be considered an effective […]

Kevin Love Likely To See A Reduced Role
Cleveland Cavaliers forward Kevin Love (calf) is expected to see less playing time this season.

Zach Collins Contract Not Fully Guaranteed
San Antonio Spurs center Zach Collins recently signed a three-year, $22 million deal with the club. However, due to Collins' injury history, only a portion of the contract ($10.675 million) is guaranteed. The 23-year-old played sparingly throughout his four seasons in Portland because of a nagging foot issue, so there is plenty of risk associated […]

Tyler Stephenson Hits Seventh Homer
