Orlando Magic guard Evan Fournier recorded 29 points, seven rebounds, and seven assists in 31 minutes during Sunday's win over Detroit.

Detroit Pistons forward Jerami Grant recorded 24 points, five rebounds, and four assists in 35 minutes during Sunday's loss to Orlando. Grant has posted at least 15 points in the last five games, which is encouraging. Overall, the forward is averaging a stellar 23.5 points per game with the Pistons this season and his role […]

Curtis Blaydes On Receiving End Of Big Knockout

With a win on Saturday, Curtis Blaydes (14-3) would have put himself in the driver's seat for a future heavyweight title shot. Unfortunately, the journey hit a roadblock, as Blaydes met the uppercut of Derrick Lewis. It was known from the beginning that either Lewis would win with a big shot or Blaydes would win […]

Richaun Holmes Is Playing Sunday

In a surprising move, Sacramento Kings center Richaun Holmes (knee) is playing Sunday against the Milwaukee Bucks. Holmes was originally expected to miss this game, but pregame warm-ups must have gone well. It's unclear if he'll be on any kind of minutes limit, but it might be risky to play Holmes in this game. His […]

DaQuan Jeffries Starting On Sunday

Sacramento Kings forward Daquan Jeffries will make his second start of the season on Sunday night against the Milwaukee Bucks. The second-year player out has appeared in just five games, averaging 5.4 points while shooting 50 percent from the field. His 4.4 field goal attempts per game are a sign that Jeffries has a fairly […]

Ketlen Vieira Drops A Decision This Weekend

Entering Saturday night as a huge favorite, Ketlen Vieira (11-2) lost a very close decision to Yana Kunitskaya. The first round was Vieira's, displaying her solid striking and great ground game. The second and third rounds were really more of the same, but saw Kunitskaya do just enough in the judges' eyes at the end […]

Charles Rosa Goes The Distance But Can't Get The Win

Unable to get his second victory in a row on Saturday, Charles Rosa (13-5) fell to Darrick Minner in what many predicted beforehand to have Fight of the Night written all over it. As expected, Minner's ground game was too much for Rosa, though Rosa fought hard and escaped submissions. In 15 minutes of action, […]

Aleksei Oleinik Has A Rough Night In The Octagon

Aleksei Oleinik (59-15-1) ran into a tough task in the young Chris Daukaus on Saturday. Known for his deadly ground game, Oleinik just could not get close enough to take down the big Daukaus. Oleinik was only able to land five significant strikes (six total strikes) in less than two minutes of action before being […]

Richaun Holmes Unlikely To Play Sunday

Sacramento Kings center Richaun Holmes (knee) is unlikely to play on Sunday against the Milwaukee Bucks, which would put Hassan Whiteside back in the starting lineup again. While this matchup with the Bucks is a tough one, Whiteside would have some decent DFS appeal if Holmes is officially ruled out. This can also mean more […]

Harrison Barnes Not Expected To Play Against Bucks

Sacramento Kings forward Harrison Barnes (foot) is not expected to play on Sunday against the Milwaukee Bucks. While Barnes is going to warm up, it sounds like the team is planning to be without him for at least one more game. Cory Joseph could start again if the Kings choose to go small for the […]

Grant Williams Doesn't Play Against Pelicans

Boston Celtics forward Grant Williams was held out for the second game in a row on Sunday due to a coach's decision against the Pelicans, signaling that the second-year big is out of the team's rotation. You likely don't have Williams on your rosters in most formats, but if you do for some reason, this […]

Ravens Running Back Coach Heads To Michigan

Baltimore Ravens running backs coach Matt Weiss has been hired as the quarterbacks coach for the University of Michigan, where he'll work under Jim Harbaugh, the brother of Ravens head coach John Harbaugh. This is the second position coach to leave the Ravens this offseason, but with offensive coordinator Greg Roman back, don't expect to […]

Jayson Tatum Drops 32 Points In Losing Effort

Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum dropped 32 points with nine rebounds, three triples, two assists and two steals in an overtime loss to the Pelicans. Tatum left a bit to be desired from an efficiency standpoint but made up for it by committing just one turnover, a welcome sight after he had six in his […]

Zion Williamson Records Seventh Double-Double

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson notched his seventh double-double for the season in a 120-115 win over the Celtics. Williamson dropped 28 points with 10 rebounds, four assists, and a block in 40 minutes. The 20-year-old has been on a tear in February, as he's averaging 26.8 points on 65.9 percent shooting from the […]

Brandon Ingram Scores Season-High 33 Points

New Orleans Pelicans forward Brandon Ingram dropped a season-high 33 points in Sunday's overtime win over Boston. Ingram added six rebounds, five triples, and three assists while drilling a huge three late in overtime to give his team the lead for good. The 23-year-old has been a bit streaky this month but has really locked […]

Tyler Herro Questionable For Monday

Miami Heat guard Tyler Herro (hip) has been listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Thunder. Herro suffered the injury, a hip pointer, at some point during the first half of Saturday's game against the Lakers- and was unable to return for the second half. He should be considered a game-time call for Monday. […]

OG Anunoby Returns To Starting Lineup Sunday

Toronto Raptors forward OG Anunoby is back in the starting lineup on Sunday against the 76ers. Anunoby was rested for the second half of the back-to-back on Friday, though he'll be back out there in a small-ball lineup against Philadelphia. He was excellent in his first meeting with the 76ers, as he drained four triples […]

Pierre-Luc Dubois Returns To Action On First Line

Winnipeg Jets forward Pierre-Luc Dubois (lower body) will be back in action for Sunday's visit to Vancouver, joining Mark Scheifele and Blake Wheeler on the first line. The former Blue Jacket had only two outings for Winnipeg before picking up an injury, finishing pointless and without recording a single shot. Life should be much sweeter […]

Dillon Brooks Out On Monday, Brandon Clarke Available

Memphis Grizzlies guard Dillon Brooks (thigh) has been ruled out for Monday's game against Dallas, while forward Brandon Clarke (calf) is off the injury report. Brooks has missed the last three games with a sore right thigh- and it's unclear when he'll be able to make his return to the lineup. Guards De'Anthony Melton, Grayson […]

Connor Hellebuyck Goes For Revenge Versus Canucks

Winnipeg Jets goaltender Connor Hellebuyck will be between the pipes in Sunday's matchup with the Canucks. He'll be looking to avenge a 4-1 loss he suffered against Vancouver at the end of last month. The 27-year-old has been inconsistent lately, but he still owns a solid 7-5-1 record for the season with a 2.61 goals-against […]

Glenn Robinson III Out Again On Sunday

Sacramento Kings forward Glenn Robinson III (knee) will not play on Sunday against the Milwaukee Bucks. The veteran also sat out during Saturday's affair with the Chicago Bulls, which left the door open for Tyrese Haliburton to benefit the most. With Harrison Barnes (foot) also out, the team will likely continue to run its starting […]

Braden Holtby Makes 10th Start Of The Season

Vancouver Canucks goaltender Braden Holtby will earn his 10th start of the season on Sunday against Winnipeg. He's sitting on a 4-5-0 record for the season and is looking for his second consecutive win, after stopping 35 pucks in a 5-1 victory over Calgary on Wednesday. Holtby carries a 3.44 goals-against average and a .896 […]

Gary Harris To Be Sidelined Against Hawks

Denver Nuggets guard Gary Harris (groin) is out for Sunday's game against Atlanta and is considered week-to-week. Per Nuggets head coach Mike Malone, Harris aggravated his groin when he returned to the lineup on Wednesday against the Wizards. Will Barton, Monte Morris and Facundo Campazzo could all see extra minutes with Harris down. Barton and Morris […]

Corey Perry Returns To Lineup Versus Ottawa

Montreal Canadiens right wing Corey Perry will re-enter the lineup on Sunday against Ottawa after sitting out Saturday's 5-3 loss to Toronto. The former MVP scored in his Habs debut and had a nice start in Montreal with three points in his first four games, but the veteran winger has been slumping ever since. However, […]

Nicolas Claxton Available On Sunday Night

Brooklyn Nets forward Nicolas Claxton (knee) is available to play on Sunday night against the Los Angeles Clippers. This is excellent news, primarily since the team is lacking size underneath the basket. However, on the fantasy end, the 21-year-old probably won't do much as he will likely face a minutes cap in his first game […]
