Goran Dragic Out Again On Thursday
Miami Heat guard Goran Dragic (ankle) is out for Thursday's matchup against the Kings. The veteran didn't travel with the team for its West Coast road trip, so his absence was expected all along. Without Dragic in the lineup, the team will continue to roll with Kendrick Nunn at the one, opening the door for […]

LeBron James Probable Against Nets
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is considered probable for Thursday's meeting against the Brooklyn Nets. The veteran has been dealing with the ailment for quite some time but has still managed to play, so his designation shouldn't come as a surprise. With Brooklyn giving up points at historic levels, the former MVP should […]

Mike Conley Remains Questionable
Utah Jazz guard Mike Conley (hamstring) is questionable for Friday night’s matchup against the Clippers. The veteran has been dealing with tightness in the area and has missed his previous six contests as a result. If he remains out, Donovan Mitchell should continue to see a bump in usage running things at the point, with […]

Nicolas Batum Questionable On Friday Night
Los Angeles Clippers forward Nicolas Batum (concussion) is listed as questionable for Friday's meeting against Utah. The veteran has missed his previous two outings, opening the door for Serge Ibaka and Marcus Morris to see a dramatic increase in minutes. Batum is averaging 9.7 points, 1.4 steals, and shooting 45.6 percent from deep during the […]

Jonathan Quick Makes Eighth Start Of The Season
Los Angeles Kings goaltender Jonathan Quick will make his eighth start of the season in Thursday's matchup versus Arizona.

Kaapo Kahkonen Remains In Minnesota's Crease
Minnesota Wild goaltender Kaapo Kahkonen will get his seventh start of the season on Thursday against Anaheim. He took an ugly 4-0 loss on Tuesday against the Kings when Minnesota restarted its season following a COVID-19 break.

Darcy Kuemper Faces Kings On Thursday
Arizona Coyotes goaltender Darcy Kuemper will make his 13th start of the season on Thursday against the L.A. Kings. He has just posted his first shutout of the year with a 24-save performance in a 1-0 win over St. Louis, so his confidence should be sky-high at the moment. Kuemper is 5-6-1 for the season […]

Martin Jones Takes On Blues Thursday Night
San Jose Sharks goaltender Martin Jones will be between the pipes for Thursday's visit to St. Louis. The 31-year-old has beaten the Blues once already this season with a 22-save effort in a 2-1 overtime victory, but it's been a rollercoaster ride for him behind a shaky Sharks defense. Jones has a positive 6-4-0 record […]

Jordan Binnington Looks To Remain Hot Versus Sharks
St. Louis Blues goaltender Jordan Binnington will earn his 13th start of the season in Thursday's matchup with the Sharks. The 27-year-old has looked great in his past two appearances, giving up only two goals with 44 shots. He carries a 7-3-2 record into Thursday's matchup with a 2.37 goals-against average and a .918 save […]

Vitek Vanecek Faces Buffalo On Thursday
Washington Capitals goaltender Vitek Vanecek will go for a second consecutive win in Thursday's matchup with the Sabres. The 25-year-old ended a four-game slide in Tuesday's 3-1 victory over Pittsburgh. Vanecek sits on a 6-3-2 record and has posted a 3.06 goals-against average and a .906 save percentage. His numbers have taken a big hit […]

Juuse Saros Starts For Predators On Thursday
Nashville Predators goaltender Juuse Saros gets another chance to get into good form on Thursday against Columbus. He is off to a 3-4-0 start to the year with a poor 3.66 goals-against average and an .880 save percentage. Saros has coughed up 15 goals in his last three starts, so his confidence can't be very […]

Mackenzie Blackwood Looks For Another Win Thursday Night
New Jersey Devils goaltender Mackenzie Blackwood, who sits on a three-game winning streak, is the team's starter for Thursday's battle with the Bruins. The 24-year-old missed nearly a month of action due to COVID-19 but came back very strong at the start of the week with a 37-save effort in a 5-2 win over the […]

Draymond Green Questionable Against Orlando
Golden State Warriors forward/center Draymond Green (ankle) is questionable for Friday's matchup against the Magic. The veteran has been dealing with soreness in his right ankle, an injury that forced him to miss Wednesday's encounter with the Miami Heat. If he is ruled out again, look for Eric Paschall and Kent Bazemore to potentially see […]

Thomas Chabot Misses Thursday's Game
Ottawa Senators defenseman Thomas Chabot (upper body) is out for Thursday's game against Toronto. Christian Wolanin joins the lineup in his absence. Chabot logs huge minutes for the Senators, so he'll be a huge miss for the team at both ends of the ice. Chabot has three goals and nine points for the season in […]

Ben Simmons Likely To Suit Up On Friday
Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Ben Simmons (illness) is likely to play on Friday night against the Bulls. The 24-year-old missed Wednesday's game against the visiting Rockets while dealing with the flu, which opened the door for added production from Seth Curry, Tobias Harris, and Danny Green. With Simmons potentially back in the lineup, look for Matisse […]

Michael Hutchinson Makes Season Debut On Thursday
Toronto Maple Leafs goaltender Michael Hutchinson will get his first taste of action this season in Thursday's home match versus the Senators. The 30-year-old is back with the Leafs after finishing last year with the Avalanche. Hutchinson had a 4-9-1 record in Toronto in 2019-20 with a 3.66 goals-against average and a .886 save percentage. […]

Kyle Lowry Out At Least Two Games
Toronto Raptors guard Kyle Lowry (thumb) will miss the team's next two games against the Bucks and Timberwolves and could miss more action beyond that, according to head coach Nick Nurse. With the veteran out of the equation, look for Fred Vanvleet to potentially slide to the one spot, likely resulting in a noticeable bump […]

Curtis Blaydes Has A Lot Riding On Saturday's Bout
One of the UFC's most prolific takedown artists, Curtis Blaydes (14-2) is riding high on a four-fight winning streak. With a win, the second-ranked UFC heavyweight would put himself in talks to earn a title shot sometime in 2021. But he has to get past the big hands of Derrick Lewis first. DraftKings actually sees […]

Zach Hyman Won't Play On Thursday
Toronto Maple Leafs forward Zach Hyman (undisclosed) is out for Thursday's home game against Ottawa. The 28-year-old logged 19:55 in Wednesday's clash with the Senators, so it looks like he isn't dealing with anything serious, but still needs some time off. He's day-to-day with the next chance to return to action coming on Saturday against […]

Ketlen Vieira Can Get Back Into Title Talks
Ketlen Vieira (11-1) rebounded well from the first loss in her career, which was a first-round knockout at UFC 245 in December of 2019. In September of last year, Vieira secured a unanimous decision over Sijara Eubanks. Still considered one of the best bantamweights in the world, Vieira can move one step closer with a […]

Darrick Minner Looking To Take The Fight To The Mat
Splitting his two UFC appearances, Darrick Minner (25-11) will look to take home a victory in his first bout of 2021 this Saturday. Throughout his professional career, which began in 2012, 22 of Minner's 25 career wins have come by submission, obviously showing you that Minner wants to take this bout to the mat. DraftKings […]

Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot Cleared To Play On Thursday
Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot (knee) is available to play on Thursday against the Lakers. The 25-year-old has dealt with soreness in his right knee, but he has managed to play through it. However, with an average of just over seven points per outing and a potential minutes cap, he should be considered a dart […]

Alexandar Georgiev Faces Philly On Thursday

The 24-year-old is 1-2-2 for the year with a 3.21 goals-against average and a .891 save percentage. it's not been a pretty start by him, and the team is struggling as well, with the Blueshirts on a four-game losing […]

Sami Vatanen Set For Season Debut
New Jersey Devils defenseman Sami Vatanen is set to see his first action of the season in Thursday's road game against Boston. The 29-year-old has had a pretty bizarre 12 months, as the Devils traded him to Carolina a year ago and he appeared in seven playoff games for the Hurricanes, but he returned to […]

Felix Hernandez Motivated By Hall Of Fame
Baltimore Orioles starting pitcher Felix Hernandez said Thursday that his motivation to continue pitching is to reach the Hall of Fame, per MLB.com's Joe Trezza.
