Brian Elliott Gets The Call Versus Rangers

Philadelphia Flyers goaltender Brian Elliott will make his 11th start of the campaign as his team takes on the New York Rangers at Madison Square Garden on Wednesday night.

Frank Jackson Draws Start Wednesday

Detroit Pistons point/shooting guard Frank Jackson shifts into the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against the Raptors, marking his first start of the year.

Adam Fox Back In Action On Wednesday

New York Rangers defenseman Adam Fox has been activated from the COVID-19 protocol list and will suit up as his team hosts the Philadelphia Flyers on Wednesday night.

Forrest Whitley Undergoes Tommy John Surgery

Houston Astros pitcher Forrest Whitley (elbow) underwent Tommy John surgery on his right elbow on Wednesday.

He's 23 years old and struggled through his last […]

Wayne Ellington Misses Second Straight Outing

Detroit Pistons shooting guard Wayne Ellington (groin) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Toronto due to a strained right adductor.

Tyler Motte Returns To Lineup On Wednesday

Vancouver Canucks forward Tyler Motte (lower body) has been activated from Injured Reserve and will return to the lineup as his team faces off against the Ottawa Senators on Wednesday.

Brooklyn Nets shooting guard Landry Shamet has been bumped up to the starting lineup in place of Kyrie Irving (groin) for Wednesday's contest against the Pacers.

Framber Valdez Will Not Undergo Season-Ending Surgery

The Houston Astros have announced that starting pitcher Framber Valdez (finger) will not need to undergo surgery. His fractured left ring finger is healing well.

Toronto Raptors power forward/center Pascal Siakam, point/shooting guard Fred VanVleet, shooting guard/small forward Patrick McCaw and point guard Malachi Flynn have all been given the green light to return to action Wednesday against the Pistons after clearing the league's health and safety protocols.

The Boston Red Sox have made several roster moves on Wednesday. The team is sending its top prospect, first baseman Triston Casas, to the minor leagues.

Houston Rockets center Christian Wood (ankle) and forward Danuel House Jr. (knee) will be back in action on Wednesday against the Warriors.

Kevin Durant's Hamstring Scan Shows Improvement

Brooklyn Nets forward Kevin Durant (hamstring) had another scan on Wednesday for his injured hamstring. The scan showed signs of improvement, per head coach Steve Nash- though he's still expected to miss one-to-two weeks with the injury.

Meyers Leonard Won’t Play For Thunder

Oklahoma City Thunder power forward/center Meyers Leonard was dealt to his new organization Wednesday, but he will not actually see action with the squad. With Oklahoma City receiving a future second-round Draft choice as compensation for Trevor Ariza, they will look to move on from Leonard in the future in light of his off-the-court comments. […]

Hassan Whiteside Returns Wednesday, Has Minutes Cap

Sacramento Kings center Hassan Whiteside has been cleared to get back on the floor for Wednesday's game against Washington after having passed through the league's health and safety protocols. Not having suited up since Feb. 21, Whiteside will see his minutes limited versus the Wizards, although he has exceeded the 17-minute mark just once in […]

Jeremy Lamb Ruled Out Wednesday

Indiana Pacers guard Jeremy Lamb (knee) has been ruled out Wednesday against the Nets. Lamb was listed as questionable but will be sidelined for the third straight game with knee soreness. His absence should mean more chances for Justin Holiday and Aaron Holiday, as well as Caris Levert, who just returned from injury. Fantasy investors […]

Tyrese Haliburton Enters The Starting Lineup

Sacramento Kings guard Tyrese Haliburton will enter the starting five on Wednesday against the Wizards. The injury to Marvin Bagley III (hand) opened up a slot in the starting lineup, and head coach Luke Walton gave the honors to Haliburton. The rookie has been effective coming off the bench this season, though this is a […]

Josh James Won’t Be Cleared For Opening Day

Houston Astros right-handed pitcher Josh James (undisclosed) is nearing a return to the mound, albeit one that will not have him set in time to take the hill for April 1. James had a recent "physical setback" in his recovery and has not yet appeared in a Grapefruit League contest. After an odd statistical campaign […]

James Wiseman, Eric Paschall Out Against Rockets

Golden State Warriors center James Wiseman and forward Eric Paschall are out for Wednesday's game against the Rockets. It's unclear at this moment how long both players will be out, though it presents a clear opportunity in the Warriors front court. Kevon Looney can be expected to step up, though the real fantasy winner here is Draymond […]

Brusdar Graterol Tosses Bullpen Session Wednesday

Los Angeles Dodgers right-handed pitcher Brusdar Graterol (undisclosed) has been brought along slowly during Cactus League play in 2021, but he was able to throw a 25-pitch bullpen session Wednesday, his latest step in a return to the mound.

Kemba Walker, Tristan Thompson Won't Play Against Cleveland

Boston Celtics guard Kemba Walker (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Cleveland. Center Tristan Thompson (health and safety protocols) remains out. Neither absence is surprising, given that Walker generally has been rested on the second half of back-to-backs this year- and Thompson has already been sidelined for one game. Jayson Tatum and […]

Zach Eflin Battles Back Ailment During Camp

Philadelphia Phillies right-handed pitcher Zach Eflin (back) has been officially tagged day-to-day by manager Joe Girardi after having his back ailment flare up again during a bullpen session. Girardi admitted that he was "a little" concerned by the recurrence of the injury, which is threatening to stunt Eflin's open to 2021. In the two Grapefruit […]

Kevin Love Ruled Out Wednesday

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Kevin Love (calf) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Celtics. This will be Love's second game on the sidelines after suffering a setback in his return on Sunday. Larry Nance Jr. has been a great fantasy value with Love in street clothes- and that trend should continue for as […]

Anthony Bender Continues His Perfect Spring

Miami Marlins relief pitcher Anthony Bender pitched another scoreless inning in Wednesday's Grapefruit League game against the New York Mets. Bender was credited with the win after pitching a perfect ninth inning with two strikeouts and a ground out. He has a perfect 0.00 ERA and has yet to allow a base runner in his […]

Felix Pena Will Miss 2-4 Weeks With Groin Strain

Los Angeles Angels right-handed pitcher Felix Pena (groin) will be sidelined for the next two to four weeks due to a strained right groin that he sustained during Cactus League play Monday.

Adam Cimber Throws Another Scoreless Inning On Wednesday

Miami Marlins relief pitcher Adam Cimber contributed another scoreless inning in Wednesday's Grapefruit League game against the New York Mets. Cimber pitched the sixth inning and retired the side in order. He's sporting a 1.80 ERA in the spring and should pitch significant innings for the Marlins in the regular season. He won't close so […]
