Aaron Gordon Flirts With Triple-Double In Loss To Knicks
Orlando Magic forward Aaron Gordon flirted with a triple-double in a 91-84 loss to the Knicks on Monday. Gordon was a bit erratic with his shot, though he made up for it with a career-high 17 rebounds along with nine assists, two triples, and two blocks in 36 minutes. The 25-year-old had his minutes restricted […]

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson is not happy with the team after they did not include him in the search for new general manager Nick Caserio.

LPL DFS Picks for 1/19: DraftKings & FanDuel League of Legends Daily Fantasy
If you follow me on Twitter, you already know, but I'm steaming. Game one showed what BLG could be. Mark is coming downhill on a tanky engage champion, Meteor out farming the enemy carries (yes, both of them), Zeka roaming the map, and I couldn't have been prouder. Then game two happened; ok, I said […]

Chargers Hire Brandon Staley As New Head Coach
The Los Angeles Chargers hired Los Angeles Rams defensive coordinator Brandon Staley as their next head coach on Sunday, according to sources. The 38-year-old spent just one year with the Rams after leading the league's No. 1 defense in scoring, total defense and pass defense in the 2020 regular season. Rams defenders had career-best seasons […]

EPL Betting Picks for Matchweek 19 Part 2: English Premier League
Matchweek 19 rolls on after the weekend fixtures yielded us just one winner. Leeds failed to score at home to Brighton in a performance not aided by a pitch that looked like it had just hosted Coachella. And unfortunately, Tottenham decided this week was the week they'd actually look to score more than once in […]

Antonio Brown Undergoing MRI On Knee
Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Antonio Brown (knee) is undergoing an MRI on Monday to determine the severity of a knee injury he suffered during Sunday's playoff victory. Brown suffered the ailment sometime in the first half and was seen on the sidelines, though he was never officially ruled out of the game. Provided there […]

Nemanja Bjelica Should Return At Some Point
Sacramento Kings forward Nemanja Bjelica has not played in each of the last four games. However, head coach Luke Walton believes Bjelica will return to the rotation at some point this season. He hasn't been benched because of poor play, but Walton has been using different rotations and sadly Bjelica has been the odd man […]

Gabe Vincent Listed As Probable Versus Pistons
Miami Heat guard Gabe Vincent (knee) is listed as probable for Monday's game against the Detroit Pistons. He played on Saturday, but struggled and only played 16 minutes before fouling out. Tyler Herro (neck) is listed as questionable, so Vincent could have some streaming appeal without Herro on the court. Otherwise, it's tough to imagine […]

Jalen Brunson Expected To Play On Monday
Dallas Mavericks guard Jalen Brunson (COVID-19) is expected to suit up for Monday's game against the Toronto Raptors, according to head coach Rick Carlisle. He continues to test negative, but hasn't been cleared to play yet. The Mavs could've used Brunson during Sunday's loss to the Chicago Bulls. Hopefully, Dallas will get him back for […]

Tim Hardaway Jr. Could Sit Out On Monday
Dallas Mavericks guard Tim Hardaway Jr. (groin) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He sat out of Saturday's game due to a left groin strain. Possibly, Hardaway has healed up by now, but fantasy managers will likely have to wait until closer to tip-off. Trey Burke would gain the most […]

Kevin Porter Jr. Expected To Be Released
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Kevin Porter Jr. has not played this season and won't likely be taking the court anytime soon. The organization is reportedly seeking to trade or release Porter after an outburst in the locker room. Cleveland gave his locker to Taurean Prince and the second-year guard grew angry. The Cavs spent the weekend […]

Mitchell Robinson Will Play On Monday
New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (knee) will be in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Orlando Magic. He is dealing with right knee soreness, but it sounds like he'll suit up for this game. Nerlens Noel or Taj Gibson could see increased playing time if Robinson is limited at all. It sounds […]

Alec Burks Remains Out Versus Magic
New York Knicks guard Alec Burks (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Orlando Magic. There was hope that Burks would suit up here, but the team has decided to give him an extra day off. Austin Rivers and RJ Barrett will continue to see increased value until Burks returns.

Thomas Greiss Facing Blue Jackets Monday
Detroit Red Wings goaltender Thomas Greiss will be in net for Monday's afternoon matchup with the Columbus Blue Jackets. The German netminder performed admirably in the team's season opener, turning aside 40 of 42 shots. Greiss may not get a ton of offensive support this season, but he has proven to be an effective NHL […]
