Magomed Ankalaev Enters Saturday As A Big Favorite

On a five-fight winning streak since losing his debut on a last-second triangle choke, Magomed Ankalaev (14-1) is set for Saturday's co-main event against another tough opponent in Nikita Krylov. Ankalaev has shown himself to be a dangerous striker, with eight of his 14 career wins coming by knockout/TKO. His last three wins have all […]

Montana De La Rosa In Need Of A Win

Montana De La Rosa (11-6) has flip-flopped wins and losses in her last four bouts and needs a win on Saturday to avoid a two-fight losing streak. With nine of her 11 wins coming by submission, she faces a similar foe that has used submissions for the majority of her wins as well. It's going […]

Zack Wheeler Feels Good After Fingernail Surgery

Philadelphia Phillies starting pitcher Zack Wheeler said he feels 100 percent healthy after throwing bullpen sessions in Spring Training. Wheeler ripped a fingernail on his pitching hand last September that caused him to miss a start. This is the second time in his career Wheeler had this surgery and said it is not affecting him […]

Mayra Bueno Silva Looks To Continue Impressive UFC Run

Mayra Bueno Silva (7-1) came onto the UFC scene strong in 2018, winning her Contender Series matchup with a ninja choke and securing another victory in her debut against Gillian Robertson. Silva lost a decision to open last year but rebounded nicely with a first-round armbar in September of last year. A dangerous submission artist, […]

New York Knicks guard Derrick Rose will start on Thursday night against Sacramento.

New York Knicks guard Elfrid Payton (hamstring) will not play on Thursday night against Sacramento. The veteran has been dealing with soreness in the area, which will force him to miss his first game of the year. With the 27-year-old out of the mix, Derrick Rose will slide into the starting lineup, which will automatically […]

EPL Betting Picks for Matchweek 26: English Premier League Part 1

Last week was a goose egg. Southampton hit the woodwork to deny us the pick and a Chelsea goal would've seen as bag the pick and correct score. It was the same story for Sheffield United who needed a goal to bag us the pick and correct score. And West Brom was denied a clear […]

Matthew Allan Working With Jacob deGrom

New York Mets right-handed pitching prospect Matthew Allan has been working with Jacob deGrom during the early part of spring training. The Mets have paired Allan with deGrom in nearly all of their drills. They are hoping the 19-year old prospect, who is currently the Mets' fourth-ranked MLB Pipeline prospect, can learn a bit of […]

Quinnen Williams Doesn't Want To Be Traded

New York Jets defensive tackle Quinnen Williams said he'd "be disappointed" if the team traded him this offseason to the Houston Texans in a package to acquire quarterback Deshaun Watson. The third overall pick of the 2019 draft has been the subject of trade rumors for months. "I really want to be a Jet for […]

Corey Linsley Doesn't Expect To Be Back

Green Bay Packers impending free-agent center Corey Linsley said that he feels his departure is coming in free agency. "We're not closing the door for anything," Linsley said. "Obviously we'd never do that for any team, especially the Packers, but yeah it definitely feels weird. Looks like all signs are pointing towards snapping the ball […]

Texans Still Unwilling To Talk Deshaun Watson Trade

The Houston Texans remain unwilling to talk about quarterback Deshaun Watson with other teams, with some clubs resorting to leaving voicemails with their trade offers, according to sources. Watson spoke with head coach David Culley recently, but the two have yet to meet in person. The 25-year-old franchise signal-caller hasn't backed off his demands to […]

Bears Re-Sign Ryan Nall

The Chicago Bears re-signed running back Ryan Nall to an undisclosed deal on Thursday. In his second season with the Bears in 2020, Nall had 67 yards and a touchdown on just 11 touches (three carries, eight receptions) in 16 games. He was scheduled to become a restricted free agent next month, but he'll remain […]

Titans Shopping Isaiah Wilson

The Tennessee Titans have shopped first-round offensive tackle Isaiah Wilson this offseason, according to sources. The team is open to trading the former Georgia star after he played in only a handful of snaps in one game for the Titans in his rookie season after being taken with the 29th overall pick in the first […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/25/21): NBA DFS Lineups

Happy Thursday, RotoBallers! We greet Friday's Friday with a six-game schedule as we get the weekend started early. Only the New Orleans Pelicans are playing the second half of a back-to-back tonight, and it gives us a lot of fresh legs to play in our DFS lineups. It doesn't necessarily take all of the Pelicans […]

Titans Releasing Adam Humphries

The Tennessee Titans are releasing wide receiver Adam Humphries on Thursday, according to a source. The move saves the Titans around $4.47 million in salary cap space for the upcoming 2021 season. Humphries, who is still only 27 years old, was a big-ticket signing two years ago for Tennessee, but he caught only 60 passes […]

NHL DFS Prop Picks for 2/25/21 - Monkey Knife Fight

Thursday is a busy night in the National Hockey League, with 10 games on the schedule. Among the most compelling matchups, the Carolina Hurricanes continue in Tampa Bay after losing to the Lightning Wednesday and the Pittsburgh Penguins are in Washington to face the Capitals, and as long as Sidney Crosby and Alex Ovechkin are […]

FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (2/25/21): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

We have a modest six-game slate, a fairly typical size for a Thursday night. The less-than-ideal aspect of the ledger for DFS purposes is that it tilts more toward non-competitive matchups that could lead to some star players seeing less than a full allotment of minutes. A couple of the best defensive teams in the […]

Kevin Cash Raving About Austin Meadows

Tampa Bay Rays manager Kevin Cash continues to rave about outfielder Austin Meadows and how he looks really good after dropping weight in the offseason. Meadows played in only 36 games last year while dealing with COVID-19 and a Grade 2 oblique strain, but the 25-year-old broke out in his last full season in 2019 […]

Alex Bregman, Yordan Alvarez Get On The Field Thursday

Houston Astros third baseman Alex Bregman (hamstring) took batting practice on the field on Thursday but remained out of infield drills. Outfielder/designated hitter Yordan Alvarez (knees) stretched and did some running with the team but remained out of batting practice. Bregman tweaked the same hamstring that caused him to miss some time last year, but […]

Kris Bryant Open To An Extension

Chicago Cubs third baseman/outfielder Kris Bryant is open to negotiating a contract to remain with the team. Bryant will be eligible to be a free agent for the first time after this season and with Scott Boras as his agent, Bryant is likely to command a large contract either with the Cubs or another suitor. […]

Russell Wilson Hasn't Demanded A Trade

Seattle Seahawks quarterback Russell Wilson has not demanded a trade, according to his agent, Mark Rodgers. Wilson wants to stay in Seattle and has a no-trade clause, but if a trade were considered, the only teams he would play for would be the Dallas Cowboys, New Orleans Saints, Las Vegas Raiders or Chicago Bears. Another […]

Nick Senzel Will Be Everyday Center Fielder

Cincinnati Reds manager David Bell confirmed on Thursday that Nick Senzel will be the team's everyday center fielder heading into the 2021 season. Bell later added, "At one point, everyday may have meant 162 games, but that's not what I mean. We have four outfielders who need to play." With Senzel slated to see regular […]

Bobby Portis Expected To Play Thursday

Milwaukee Bucks forward Bobby Portis (elbow) is listed as probable for Thursday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. He suffered an elbow laceration on Tuesday, but it doesn't sound like something that is going to cost him playing time. He should resume his role as the backup center on Thursday. Surprisingly, Portis has carried decent […]

Maxi Kleber Probable For Thursday

Dallas Mavericks forward Maxi Kleber (ankle) is listed as probable for Thursday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He has missed each of the last two games due to a left ankle sprain. However, it sounds like Kleber is finally ready to get back on the court. His return to action would mean less playing time […]

Kristaps Porzingis Doubtful Versus Sixers

Dallas Mavericks center Kristaps Porzingis (back) is listed as doubtful for Thursday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He was listed as questionable on Wednesday, but it sounds like the Mavs plan on giving Porzingis more time to rest. Dwight Powell and Willie Cauley-Stein would be asked to play more, assuming Porzingis is out. Neither are […]

Didi Gregorius Expected In Camp On Friday

Philadelphia Phillies shortstop Didi Gregorius is expected to report to camp on Friday, according to Scott Lauber of the Philadelphia Inquirer. Gregorius has been out due to visa issues, but manager Joe Girardi said this shouldn't affect his ability to be ready for the season. Gregorius had a solid first year in Philadelphia slashing .284/.339/.488 […]

Davis Bertans Might Sit Thursday

Washington Wizards forward Davis Bertans (knee) listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He struggled in Wednesday's contest, which could partly be due to the knee soreness. Deni Avdija would benefit the most, assuming Bertans is unable to suit up. Avdija would have decent streaming appeal with extended playing time.

John Lynch Endorses Jimmy Garoppolo As Starting QB

San Francisco 49ers general manager John Lynch said that quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo remains in the team's plans as the starter under center. Lynch said that there wasn't any doubt that Garoppolo would be the team's starter in 2021 if he's healthy. There have been questions as to whether the Niners would go in a different […]
