Logan Thomas A Viable Fantasy Starter In Matchup With Bucs

Washington Football Team tight end Logan Thomas will look to keep the momentum from a breakout 2020 campaign in Saturday's playoff opener versus Tampa Bay.

Deshaun Watson Unhappy With Organization

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson is extremely unhappy with the organization after owner Cal McNair told him he would be involved in the next general manager and head coach hiring process to provide feedback, but then did neither in their hire of Nick Caserio as the next GM, according to sources.

LeBron James, Anthony Davis Get Green Light To Play Thursday

The Los Angeles Lakers will have both point guard/small forward LeBron James (ankle) and power forward/center Anthony Davis (adductor) on the floor for Thursday's contest versus the Spurs.

Cleveland Scratches Collin Sexton Before Thursday’s Game

Cleveland Cavaliers point/shooting guard Collin Sexton (ankle) had been announced as a starter for Thursday's contest against Memphis and had gone through a pre-game workout, but he was scratched at the last possible minute, with Damyean Dotson starting at the point guard spot in his place. Without Sexton and Darius Garland (shoulder) active, Cleveland is […]

Saints Defense A Solid Start Against Bears

The New Orleans Saints Defense is a solid start against the Bears for this week's game. The unit compiled 45 sacks, 18 picks, and eight recovered fumbles in 2020 while looking completely dominant at times. The Bears have a rather mediocre offense featuring an error-prone QB in Mitchell Trubisky. As a result, this unit has […]

Jared Cook A Worthy Start Versus Chicago

Despite a lackluster regular season, New Orleans Saints tight end Jared Cook is a worthy start this week against Chicago. Cook ended 2020 by seeing at least four targets and hauling in two touchdowns in the last four games. In the last two games, he also had at least 43 yards. Though his role isn't […]

Michael Thomas A Solid Play This Weekend

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Michael Thomas (ankle) is a solid play this week if he plays.

Alvin Kamara A Strong Play, If Active

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara would be a strong play if active on Sunday. Kamara has been on the COVID-19 list since Week 17 and missed the last game of the regular season. This week, there is a chance he could return and the RB would be a strong play even against a […]

New York Adds Taj Gibson To Fold, Releases Omari Spellman

The New York Knicks and power forward/center Taj Gibson have agreed to a reunion, bringing the veteran back into the fold, where he is likely to join the Knicks' bench depth. In order to make room on the roster, the Knicks waived Omari Spellman, who was yet to appear in a game this year due […]

Though […]

Sacramento Kings point guard De'Aaron Fox (hamstring) and power forward/center Richaun Holmes (ankle) were held out of practice Thursday while dealing with respective injuries.

Pat Connaughton Will Miss Friday’s Contest With Groin Strain

Milwaukee Bucks small forward Pat Connaughton (groin) has been listed as out for Friday's game versus Utah due to a sore left groin. The absence is set to be Connaughton's third straight outing on the sidelines, paving the way for Jordan Nwora to continue snagging a handful of minutes as a reserve. Connaughton had been […]

Collin Sexton, Damyean Dotson On Track To Play Thursday

The Cleveland Cavaliers will have point/shooting guard Collin Sexton (ankle) and shooting guard/small forward Damyean Dotson (ankle) on the floor for Thursday's contest, barring a last-second issue, per head coach J.B. Bickerstaff. The duo were deemed questionable earlier in the day, which would have dealt significant blows to an already decimated backcourt heading into Thursday's […]

Boston Lists Jeff Teague As Questionable To Play Friday

Boston Celtics point guard Jeff Teague (ankle) has been battling a sprained left ankle that has kept him out of the team's two most recent contests, but he has been upgraded to questionable for Friday's game against the Wizards.

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers Defense is poised for a good game against a banged-up Washington Football Team offense on wild-card weekend.

Joe Ingles Earns Questionable Tag For Friday’s Game

Utah Jazz small forward Joe Ingles (Achilles) has been listed as questionable to suit up for Friday's contest versus the Bucks as he battles a sore right Achilles tendon.

J.D. McKissic A Solid Option On Wild-Card Weekend

Washington Football Team running back J.D. McKissic had a sneaky good season as a passing-down specialist and faces the ideal matchup in the opening round of the playoffs. McKissic led all running backs with 110 targets this season, and his 80 receptions were second to only Alvin Kamara. Tampa Bay's pass-funnel defense plays right into […]

Josh Jackson Likely To Return For Friday’s Game

Detroit Pistons shooting guard/small forward Josh Jackson (ankle) has been deemed probable to get back on the floor for Friday's contest against Phoenix.

Rob Gronkowski Worth Starting Against Washington

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Rob Gronkowski has been hit-or-miss in fantasy this year and seems worth fading ahead of a matchup with a tough Washington Football Team defense. However, Gronkowski is just two games removed from scoring a pair of touchdowns against the Lions- and the big tight end could be the primary red-zone […]

Seth Curry Unavailable To Play In Thursday’s Contest

Philadelphia 76ers shooting guard Seth Curry (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game versus Brooklyn due to left ankle soreness. Curry dropped a season-high 28 points just a day prior against the Wizards, continuing his strong start to his first year in Philadelphia, where he has shot 59.5 percent from behind the arc. With […]

Kyrie Irving Will Miss Thursday’s Game

Brooklyn Nets point guard Kyrie Irving (personal) has been deemed out for Thursday's contest against the 76ers due to personal reasons.

Caris Levert is in line for a significant increase in […]

Antonio Brown An Upside Flex

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Antonio Brown faces the league's second-ranked pass defense in the Washington Football Team on Saturday.

Chris Godwin A Strong Play In Wild-Card Game

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin is on fire heading into a playoff matchup with the Washington Football Team. Godwin has scored a touchdown in each of his last three games and has at least 80 yards in back-to-back games. While the matchup with the league's second-best pass defense is certainly a tough one, […]

Leonard Fournette Hard To Trust Against Washington

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette is tough to trust for fantasy purposes heading into the playoff opener against Washington. Fournette did get a crack at the starting job when Ronald Jones II missed two games, though he failed to exceed four yards per carry, despite scoring three times in the two games. To […]

Ronald Jones II Could Be Relied On In Playoff Opener

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Ronald Jones II made his return to the field last week after missing two games due to a finger injury and because of a stint on the COVID-19 list.
