Joe Harris Has 20 Points In Friday's Win

Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Joe Harris went for 20 points on 6-for-12 shooting in Friday's win over Boston, finishing 4-for-7 with the three-ball and 4-for-4 at the line. He grabbed four rebounds, dished out three assists and swatted away two shots in 35 minutes on the color. Harris is among the best three-point shooters in the […]

Kyrie Irving Flirts With Triple-Double Again

Brooklyn Nets point guard Kyrie Irving was shooting bricks all night against Boston on Friday but still managed to please fantasy managers with a full line. He had 15 points, 11 assists, nine rebounds, four steals and one block in a 109-104 win with 4-for-19 shooting. Irving missed all six attempts from deep but shot […]

Kyle Larson Not Recommended For Talladega This Week

Kyle Larson and Talladega do not mix. He has just two top-ten finishes on the track and has crashed in three of the previous four races. Also, the Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver has finished on the lead lap just six times. That is a true coin flip for someone starting 12th on Sunday. Place differential […]

Anze Kopitar Remains Hot In Front Of Goal

Los Angeles Kings center Anze Kopitar scored the team's second goal in Friday's 4-2 loss to Minnesota, joining Trevor Moore among the goal-scorers. He found the back of the net for the third time in four games. The Kings have had a pretty rough ride again this term, but Kopitar has played very well throughout […]

Kirill Kaprizov Continues Goal Streak Friday Night

Minnesota Wild winger Kirill Kaprizov scored twice in Friday's 4-2 victory over the Kings, stretching his goal streak to four games. Nico Sturm scored in a second consecutive game and Joel Eriksson Ek wrapped things up with his 15th marker of the season. Kaprizov, who is the top-scoring rookie this year, has 21 goals and […]

Aric Almirola Dicey DFS Pick At Talladega For Sunday

Aric Almirola finished sixth last week at Richmond but has crashed three times in nine races this season. Before last Fall's crash on lap 57 at the 2.66-mile tri-oval, Almirola enjoyed eight consecutive top-ten finishes at Talladega. That included a win in 2018 where he led the only lap that mattered -- the last one. […]

Matt DiBenedetto Building Towards Showing DFS Upside At Talladega

Matt DiBenedetto has been improving steadily in 2021. Though he has not led a lap all season, DiBenedetto finished ninth at Richmond last Sunday -- his best result of the year. Starting 13th should be a help to the Wood Brothers Racing driver. Talladega has been rough on DiBenedetto but he started 13th in last […]

Nick Castellanos Hits Seventh Homer

Cincinnati Reds outfielder Nick Castellanos went 1-for-5 with a solo homer and two strikeouts in a 5-4 loss to the St. Louis Cardinals on Friday. Castellanos took St. Louis starter Kwang Hyun Kim deep in the sixth inning. Overall, Castellanos is putting together an excellent first month of the season, slashing .292/.320/.653 with seven homers, […]

Brad Keselowski A True Wildcard At Talladega on Sunday

It is rare to say but Brad Keselowski could finish anywhere at Talladega on Sunday. That can be said about every driver but Keselowski is a true wildcard. He is willing to take risks like the Team Penske racer did last week at Richmond. That backfired but Keselowski did lead 25 laps in all before […]

Sonny Gray Fails To Make It Out Of The Fourth Inning

Cincinnati Reds right-hander Sonny Gray struggled in a 5-4 loss to the St. Louis Cardinals on Friday. Gray allowed five runs in 3 2/3 innings while striking out six and walking three. The veteran hurler was done in by a four-run third inning in which he gave up two doubles to the Cardinals. Gray took […]

Kyle Busch Not Such A Good DFS Pick At Talladega

Kyle Busch had a rough 2020 on the Talladega Superspeedway. He finished outside the top-25 in both races and crashed out late in the Fall race. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver started third and sixth respectively but fell out of contention twice. The question is does he have the race car to even stay in […]

Chase Elliott Tries To Break Through In 2021 At Talladega

Chase Elliott has not taken a checkered flag in 2021 after winning the NASCAR Cup Series last year. Elliott nearly won at Martinsville but finished outside of the top ten last week at Martinsville. That only added frustration for the Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver as he is their only driver to not win a race […]

Ryan Blaney One To Watch At Talladega on Sunday

Ryan Blaney may be one of the few drivers to have Talladega dialed in so to speak. He has won two of the last three races at the track. He was a victim of a crash during the Fall race last season but Blaney won the Spring race. The Team Penske driver led 63 laps […]

Christopher Bell May Not Be Worth Risk Sunday At Talladega

Christopher Bell starts from the sixth spot on Sunday for the Geico 500. However, the Joe Gibbs Racing driver may find the track, not to his liking. He crashed out on lap number one last year in the Fall race and dropped well out of contention during the Spring version. He did lead four laps […]

Alex Bowman May Finish In Top Ten Again At Talladega

Alex Bowman surprised many last week when he zoomed by Denny Hamlin at Richmond during the final restart. His win was the third for a Hendrick Motorsports driver on the season. What can he provide for an encore at Talladega? The Spring race has been more fruitful for the No. 48. He has three consecutive […]

William Byron Expects To Contend In Sunday's Geico 500

William Byron showed last year that the Hendrick Motorsports car was quite fast at Talladega. He started in 21st and finished fourth during that Fall race. Furthermore, he was right near the front at the very end. There is a going theory that the Hendrick cars could be very strong this weekend. Byron has only […]

Martin Truex Jr. Is Risky Proposition At Talladega Superspeedway

Martin Truex Jr. is the only two-time winner this year on the NASCAR Cup Series. Since the Daytona swing, the Joe Gibbs Racing driver has hung around in contention pretty much every race aside from Bristol when he cut a tire late. However, Talladega has proven to be a rough track. Truex Jr. has just […]

Joey Logano Could Win At Talladega On Sunday

Joey Logano is one of those drivers that can win on any track at any time. The Team Penske driver starts off from the second position on Sunday which could put him in a nice position to lead a good number of laps. He led 49 laps at Richmond last week and almost took back […]

Denny Hamlin Still Looking For First Win Of 2021 At Talladega

Talladega Superspeedway is a mixed bag of crazy that tests anyone -- even Denny Hamlin. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver has enjoyed better experiences of late on the 2.66-mile tri-oval. He has three top-five finishes in a row including a win at the Fall event last year. However, 2019 saw Hamlin crash out after 80 […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (4/24/21): NBA DFS Lineups

We have a solid six-game NBA slate on tap tonight, at least on the surface. Once we look closer, it becomes less appealing. John Wall will rest after playing last night.

Jordan Hicks Struggles In Friday's Win

Reyes allowed […]

Alex Reyes Earns A Two-Out Save On Friday

St. Louis Cardinals closer Alex Reyes earned a two-out save in Friday's 5-4 win over the Cincinnati Reds. It looked like Reyes was going to have a day off, as Jordan Hicks came in to pitch the ninth inning of a 5-1 game. But Hicks faced four batters and only got one out, leaving two […]

Kwang Hyun Kim Strikes Out Eight On Friday

St. Louis Cardinals starting pitcher Kwang Hyun Kim pitched well against the Cincinnati Reds on Friday. He lasted 5 2/3 innings, allowing just one run on five hits.

Jazz Chisholm Leads Off Friday's Game With A Home Run

Miami Marlins rookie second baseman Jazz Chisholm led off Friday's game against the San Francisco Giants with a home run.

Jesus Aguilar Hits A Home Run On Friday

Miami Marlins first baseman Jesus Aguilar hit his first home run of the season in Friday's loss to the San Francisco Giants. In all, Aguilar went 1-for-4 with a run scored and two RBI. His home run was a ninth inning two-run shot that made it a 5-3 loss for the Fish instead of a […]
