MLB Spring Training Notebook (3/5) - Buehler Building Up For Big Season

Welcome to the 2021 edition of RotoBaller's Spring Training Notebook. I began this column a year ago, and made it about four or five articles in when Major League Baseball decided to shut things down, just like everything else around the globe, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.  We've finally made it to (real?) baseball games. […]

Toronto Raptors forward Chris Boucher posted a season-high 30 points in Thursday's loss to the Celtics. Boucher also had five rebounds in the contest during 35 minutes of play. With Pascal Siakam out as of late (COVID-19 protocols), the forward has stepped up, posting at least 18 points and five rebounds in the past two […]

Toronto Raptors guard Kyle Lowry finished with 14 points, three rebounds, 19 assists, and one steal during Thursday's loss to the Celtics. In six of the past eight games, Lowry now has at least 20 points. He also has a triple-double or double-double in two of the past three games. Overall, Lowry is heading into […]

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum racked up 27 points, 12 rebounds, five assists, and two steals in 37 minutes during Thursday's win over the Raptors. The 23-year-old has been a little hot and cold recently but he does have at least 27 points in two of the last three games. The youngster heads into the […]

DraftKings EuroLeague DFS Lineup Picks for 3/5/21 - Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

We have a big five-game EuroLeague slate to close out a two-round week! Hopefully EuroLeague has been better to you this week than the NBA, and hopefully I've had something to do with that. I fared pretty well yesterday even though the two value "locks" weren't nearly as good as I had hoped. Still, if […]

Bo Bichette Has Tough Day In Loss To Tigers

Toronto Blue Jays shortstop Bo Bichette had a tough day in Thursday's 8-2 loss to the Tigers. Bichette went 0-for-3 with two strikeouts and made a throwing error in the field. The 22-year-old shortstop has played three games so far in the spring and is 0-for-7 with three walks, though he still has plenty of […]

Elias Pettersson Won't Play On Thursday

Vancouver Canucks center Elias Pettersson comes out of the lineup on Thursday with an undisclosed injury. Marc Michaelis gets a chance to make his NHL debut against Toronto. Pettersson was on fire prior to getting injured, scoring in four of five games and posting three multi-point efforts. He has 10 goals and 21 points for […]

David Rittich Continues In Calgary's Crease

Calgary Flames goaltender David Rittich will post a sixth consecutive start in Thursday's matchup against Ottawa. Jacob Markstrom (upper body) has been close to returning but still isn't ready. Rittich started his stint as the temporary No. 1 with a 34-save shutout against Toronto, but he has lost three of four starts since then, including […]

Joonas Korpisalo Set To Make 18th Start

Columbus Blue Jackets goaltender Joonas Korpisalo will log his 18th start of the season on Thursday versus Dallas. He's looking to post back-to-back wins after ending a horrible six-game losing streak with a 19-save effort in Tuesday's 4-1 victory over Detroit. Korpisalo has a 6-7-4 record with a 3.13 goals-against average and a .896 save […]

Anton Khudobin Takes On Blue Jackets

Dallas Stars goaltender Anton Khudobin will make his 12th start of the season in Thursday's battle with the Blue Jackets. The veteran netminder is 4-6-1 for the year with a 2.55 goals-against average, a .917 save percentage, and two shutouts. It's been a real Jekyll and Hyde season for Khudobin so far, as he's produced […]

Kelly Oubre Jr. Listed As Questionable Thursday

Golden State Warriors forward Kelly Oubre Jr. (wrist) has been listed as questionable Thursday against the Suns. Oubre was held out of Wednesday's game with the left wrist issue- and is probably going to sit out another with the All-Star break coming up. With Stephen Curry (rest) and Draymond Green (rest) already out, Oubre could […]

Ryan Johansen Returns From COVID-19 List

Nashville Predators center Ryan Johansen will return to the lineup on Thursday after being removed from the NHL's COVID-19 protocols list. He takes up a spot as a third-line center between Nick Cousins and Viktor Arvidsson. Nashville also has Brad Richardson (upper body) back in the lineup for the first time since Jan. 30. Johansen […]

Al Horford To Rest Against San Antonio

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Al Horford (rest) won't suit up Thursday against the Spurs. Horford will get his usual rest on the second night of a back-to-back. Isaiah Roby will likely get the start at the four in a pretty tricky matchup with San Antonio- though he had a nice 15-9-7 line two games ago […]

Sergei Bobrovsky Looks For Consistency Thursday Night

Florida Panthers goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky starts Thursday's road game at Nashville, trying to improve a 6-2-2 record. Bob posted wins regularly at the start of the year but has been inconsistent with his performances lately, dropping three of his last four starts. Bobrovsky's goals-against average stands at 3.02 and he carries a .899 save percentage. […]

Domantas Sabonis, Jeremy Lamb Playing Against Nuggets

Indiana Pacers forward Domantas Sabonis (ankle) and guard Jeremy Lamb (knee) will be on the court for Thursday's matchup with the Nuggets. Sabonis looked good playing on the ankle Wednesday and could be poised to exploit the Nuggets' small-ball four lineups. Lamb only played 19 minutes but racked up some nice stats, though Denver has […]

Pekka Rinne Takes On Panthers Thursday Night

Nashville Predators goaltender Pekka Rinne will face the Florida Panthers in Thursday's matchup. The veteran netminder is 5-7-0 for the year ahead of the contest with a 2.46 goals-against average and a .913 save percentage. Rinne has been solid so far, but the Predators are the third-lowest scoring team in the league, so he finds […]

Zion Williamson Doubtful Thursday With Toe Injury

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (toe) is considered doubtful for Thursday's matchup with Miami. There was no word on when or if Williamson suffered an injury to his pinky toe- so this seems like a sneaky way for the team to get the second-year pro some additional rest ahead of his first All-Star game. […]

Jimmy Butler Will Play, Bam Adebayo Ruled Out Against Pelicans

Miami Heat forward Jimmy Butler (knee) will play Thursday while Bam Adebayo (knee) has been ruled out against the Pelicans. Butler missed the last two games with some inflammation in his right knee- but returns just in time for an excellent matchup with the Pelicans, who have allowed the seventh-most FanDuel points to small forwards. […]

Kevin Lankinen Tries To Slow Down Tampa

Chicago Blackhawks goaltender Kevin Lankinen faces a huge test on Thursday night against the red-hot Lightning. The Bolts head into the encounter on a five-game winning streak and Lankinen has to pull out something special to improve his 9-3-3 record. Lankinen has been solid for Chicago all year with a 2.55 goals-against average, a .924 […]

Matt Murray Minds The Crease For Ottawa

Ottawa Senators goalie Matt Murray will be starting for the Ottawa Senators on Thursday against the Calgary Flames. Murray has been hot lately with winning four of his last five games. Two of those contests have been against Calgary. He has posted a record of six wins, 10 losses, and one overtime loss. For fantasy […]

Domantas Sabonis, Jeremy Lamb Expected To Play Thursday

Indiana Pacers forward Domantas Sabonis (ankle) and guard Jeremy Lamb (knee) are both expected to play on Thursday against the Nuggets. Sabonis was on the court for the first half of the back-to-back on Wednesday, producing an 18-6-5 line with a block and a steal. He should be in line for another good outing against […]
