Washington Football Team quarterback Alex Smith (calf) was limited in practice on Wednesday, with head coach Ron Rivera saying, "it looked like he threw the ball well." The 36-year-old QB missed Weeks 15 and 16 with a calf strain but returned in the Week 17 win over the Eagles, but his movement was limited in […]

Dennis Smith Jr. And Omari Spellman Active Wednesday

New York Knicks guard Dennis Smith Jr. (quad) and forward Omari Spellman (quad) are active Wednesday against the Utah Jazz. Smith has played in one game this season and will likely make his return Wednesday, but Austin Rivers and Immanuel Quickley have both been playing well off the bench behind Elfrid Payton. As for Spellman, […]

Buccaneers Defense Getting Shaquil Barrett Back

The Tampa Bay Buccaneers activated outside linebacker Shaquil Barrett from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Wednesday, while linebacker Devin White remains on the list. Barrett should be available to play in the wild-card playoff game against the Washington Football Team on Saturday night, which will give an already improved Tampa defense more firepower this weekend. Barrett […]

David Nwaba Starting Again For Injured Danuel House Jr.

The Houston Rockets are starting forward David Nwaba again for the injured Danuel House Jr. (back) on Wednesday against the Indiana Pacers. House with miss his second-straight game with a back injury and Nwaba is slated to grab his second-straight start. Nwaba started off the year hot with numerous players out due to medical and […]

Christian Wood Out Wednesday Against Indiana

Houston Rockets forward/center Christian Wood (knee) has been ruled out Wednesday against the Indiana Pacers. Wood was a game-time decision coming into the contest, but looks like the knee issue is enough to have him sit. DeMarcus Cousins, who has been disappointing thus far, will grab the spot start without Woods. Cousins could be worth […]

Marcus Smart In, Jeff Teague Out Wednesday Night

The Boston Celtics will be without guard Jeff Teague (ankle) again Wednesday against the Miami Heat, but will get guard Marcus Smart (thumb) back after a one-game absence. Smart's return will likely push Tremont Waters back to the bench who will take a huge hit in fantasy value. Teague, missing his second straight, should give […]

Kawhi Leonard Not Listed On Injury Report Despite Back-To-Back

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard is not listed on the injury report ahead of Wednesday night's game against the Golden State Warriors. As you may know, Leonard, who played 37 minutes on Tuesday, typically sits one of the back-to-back sets. In fact, if Leonard suits up, this would be the first time he plays both […]

Marcus Morris And Paul George Questionable Wednesday

Los Angeles Clippers forwards Marcus Morris (knee) and Paul George (ankle) are questionable to play Wednesday night against the Golden State Warriors. Morris has not played at all this season with knee soreness and is most likely going to sit, as we have not heard much of an update on his progress. George, however, was […]

Isaac Okoro Will Play And Start Against Magic

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Isaac Okoro (foot) will play and start against the Orlando Magic Wednesday night. Okoro is returning after a foot sprain and could be eased back into game shape. However, the Cavs are missing breakout guard Darius Garland (shoulder) for the next week and could rely on the rookie Okoro. Cedi Osman is […]

Evan Fournier Out Again Wednesday Night

Orlando Magic guard Evan Fournier (back) is out Wednesday against the Cleveland Cavaliers due to back spasms. This will be the third straight game missed by Fournier due to back spasms after leaving the game on December 31st. Dwayne Bacon has been the starter and will continue to do so with Fournier out. Bacon has […]

Luke Kunin Lands Two-Year Deal With Nashville

Nashville Predators forward Luke Kunin put pen to paper on a two-year, $4.6 million contract (average annual value $2.3 million) with his new team on Wednesday. Acquired in exchange for center Nick Bonino and a pair of draft picks from the Minnesota Wild on October 7, Kunin is expected to jump into a bigger role […]

Killian Hayes Suffers Significant Injury

Detroit Pistons guard Killian Hayes (hip) suffered a significant injury during the third quarter of Monday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. He suffered a labral tear in his hip while attempting to stop a fast break. It's unclear how long he'll be sidelined, but it doesn't sound like he'll be back on the court anytime […]

Oliver Bjorkstrand Signs Big Extension In Columbus

Columbus Blue Jackets forward Oliver Bjorkstrand inked a five-year, $27 million contract (average annual value $5.4 million) to remain in the Buckeye State on Wednesday. The 25-year-old, who was due to become a restricted free-agent at the conclusion of the season, is coming off an impressive campaign in which he posted 36 points (21 goals, […]

Alec Burks Sidelined At Least One Week

New York Knicks guard Alec Burks (ankle) is going to miss at least one week of action and possibly more time. He is currently in a walking boot with an ankle sprain and will be re-evaluated in seven to 10 days. The Knicks are shorthanded because of injuries, so R.J. Barrett and Austin Rivers will […]

Joaquin Niemann Looks For Another Good Performance

Joaquin Niemann will make his second start at Sentry TC, and he finished fifth there last season. Niemann's style of play could set up well for him this week. He smashes the ball off the tee, averaging about 315 yards in driving distance. He plays the Par-5's fairly well, ranking 59th on Tour. Niemann is […]

Darius Garland Could Be Sidelined A Week

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Darius Garland (shoulder) could be sidelined for at least a week or possibly more. However, the team will re-evaluate him daily as he goes through treatment for his shoulder sprain. Damyean Dotson and Cedi Osman are the most obvious candidates to get more playing time until Garland returns. Both could be possible […]

Reggie Bullock Might Sit Versus Jazz

New York Knicks guard Reggie Bullock (knee) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Utah Jazz. The Knicks are extremely shorthanded, so losing Bullock would be significant here. They would be forced to lean on R.J. Barrett and Austin Rivers, assuming Bullock sits out. Barrett would be the better option between the two, […]

Isaac Okoro Expected To Return On Wednesday

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Isaac Okoro (foot) is expected to be available for Wednesday's game against the Orlando Magic. He has been sidelined with a left foot sprain, but appears ready to return. This is great news for the Cavs who have seemingly their entire roster banged up right now Okoro will get plenty of playing […]

Cooper Kupp Activated From COVID-19 List

The Los Angeles Rams activated wide receiver Cooper Kupp from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Wednesday, putting him on track to play in the wild-card playoff game against the Seahawks on Saturday.

Christian Wood Could Sit On Wednesday

Houston Rockets center Christian Wood (knee) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Indiana Pacers. Wood has been a great fantasy option this season, so hopefully he isn't forced to miss much time. The fact he's listed as questionable hopefully means it's a minor issue. DeMarcus Cousins and P.J. Tucker will see increased […]

Kristaps Porzingis Should Return Soon

Dallas Mavericks center Kristaps Porzingis (knee) is expected to return within possibly the next 10 days, according to head coach Rick Carlisle. He has been fully practicing for a few weeks and appears ready to return from his torn meniscus. The Mavs desperately need Porzingis back and this is obviously great news for fantasy managers […]

Tim Hardaway Jr. Could Start Again This Season

Dallas Mavericks guard Tim Hardaway Jr. could rejoin the starting five at some point this season, according to head coach Rick Carlisle. He has struggled early in the season, so the Mavs decided to have Hardaway come off the bench on Monday. That worked well as he scored 30 points in 31 minutes. It sounds […]

Xander Schauffele Has Found Past Success At Kapalua

Xander Schauffele enters the week less prepared than he would have been after a positive COVID-19 test on Dec. 18. By all accounts, Schauffele had a relatively mild case of the virus, experiencing mostly fatigue, but the news of his positive test has thrown a monkey wrench into how DFS gamers should view the American […]

Trey Burke Out With An Illness

Dallas Mavericks guard Trey Burke (illness) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He is currently dealing with an illness and it's unclear how much time he's going to miss. Jalen Brunson and Tyrell Terry are expected to see more playing time in Burke's absence. Brunson is the more reliable option […]

Michael Porter Jr. Will Return On Thursday

Denver Nuggets forward Michael Porter Jr. is expected to be cleared from the league's COVID-19 protocols by the end of the day on Wednesday. That means that Porter should be able to suit up for Thursday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. Porter has been on fire this season, so fantasy managers can safely put him back […]

Brendon Todd Set To Make Third Appearance At Kapalua

Brendon Todd is set to make his third start at Kapalua this week. He has finishes of 29th in 2020 and eighth in 2015. Todd's best finish was T8 at Mayakoba but has not recorded another top-20 finish on the season. He is one of the shortest hitters off the tee and ranks just 200th […]
