James Harden Receives Green Light To Play Monday

Houston Rockets point/shooting guard James Harden (ankle) will suit up for Monday's contest against the Mavericks. Harden had earned a questionable designation after missing the team's most recent game.

Luka Doncic Likely To Play In Monday’s Contest

Dallas Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic (quad) has earned a probable designation for Monday's game versus the Rockets. Doncic was unable to suit up Sunday due to the injury, although it's unclear if the team was merely playing it safe with a back-to-back on tap. Without Doncic on the floor, Jalen Brunson delivered enormous production, […]

Jeff Teague Ruled Out For Monday’s Contest

Boston Celtics point guard Jeff Teague (ankle) will miss Monday's game versus the Raptors due to a sprained left ankle.

Boston Celtics point/shooting guard Marcus Smart (thumb) is deemed questionable to play in Monday's game versus the Raptors as he battles a sprained thumb on his shooting hand.

Broncos Defense Records Four Turnovers Against Raiders

The Denver Broncos Defense wasn't trustworthy for fantasy purposes in 2020, mainly due to injuries at key positions and a general lack of takeaways. But in the Week 17 regular season finale against the division-rival Raiders, they were able to recover two fumbles and intercept two passes to finish as a top-10 fantasy unit for […]

Brandon McManus Misses Three Kicks In Season Finale

Denver Broncos kicker Brandon McManus was rarely afforded a ton of field-goal opportunities on a weekly basis in 2020 because of the team's inconsistent and mediocre offense as a whole. But in the Week 17 regular season finale against the division-rival Raiders, McManus attempted a season-high-tying six field goals, although he made just three of […]

Tyrie Cleveland Involved In Week 17

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver Tyrie Cleveland had the best game of his rookie season in the 32-31 Week 17 loss to the Raiders in the regular season finale.

Cameron Smith Looks To Continue Hot Play In 2021

Cameron Smith closed out 2020 in splendid fashion, posting a T4 at the ZOZO Championship and an impressive runner-up finish at the Masters.

Tim Patrick Catches Just Two Passes In Week 17

Denver Broncos wide receiver Tim Patrick caught just two of four targets for 46 yards in the 32-31 loss to the division-rival Raiders in the Week 17 regular season finale on Sunday.

Noah Fant Has 48 Yards To Close Out The Season

Denver Broncos tight end Noah Fant caught four of his six targets on Sunday against the Raiders for 48 yards in the 32-31 loss to end the 2020 season. It wasn't exactly a great showing to close out the year, but Fant was quarterback Drew Lock's most reliable pass-catcher at the tail end of the […]

Jerry Jeudy Goes Off In Week 17

Denver Broncos rookie wide receiver Jerry Jeudy had been limping to the finish line of his rookie season before he exploded in the Week 17 loss to the Raiders on Sunday.

Harris English Remains A Rock-Solid Option

Harris English didn't find the winner's circle in 2020, but he was one of the most consistent players on the PGA Tour throughout the year, logging 14 top-25 finishes in his 20 starts of the 2019-20 season. English qualified for this week's Sentry Tournament of Champions on the strength of his final position in the […]
