Devin Booker Ruled Out Versus Nuggets

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (hamstring) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He exited late during Friday's overtime contest due to a left hamstring strain.

The Boston Red Sox have added right-handed starting pitcher Garrett Richards to a one-year, $10 million deal on Saturday.

Miami Heat guard Kendrick Nunn finished with a team-high 22 points in Friday's 101-81 loss against the Raptors. The 25-year-old was the only player able to get it going in the defeat, while scoring 20-plus points in consecutive games for the first time this season.

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Collin Sexton finished with 25 points, nine assists, two rebounds and one made three-pointer on eight of 19 shooting from the field in Friday's 125-113 victory against the Nets.

Anton Khudobin Posts Shutout In Season Opener

Dallas Stars goaltender Anton Khudobin stopped all 34 shots on goal as the 34-year-old posted a shutout in Friday's 7-0 victory against the Predators. Khudobin picked up right where he left off after a very productive performance throughout the 2020 Playoffs, in which the Stars came two victories away from winning the Stanley Cup. Khudobin […]

Joe Pavelski Posts Four Points In Season Opener

Dallas Stars center Joe Pavelski scored two goals and added two assists in Friday's 7-0 victory against the Predators.

Tim Stutzle Placed On Injured Reserve

Ottawa Senators left wing Tim Stutzle (undisclosed) was placed on Injured Reserve on Saturday afternoon.

Garland has totaled […]

Jamie Benn Dealing With Lower-Body Injury

Dallas Stars left wing Jamie Benn (lower body) left Friday's game in the second period after colliding with Predators forward Viktor Arvidsson.

Elvis Merzlikins Gets The Start On Saturday

Columbus Blue Jackets goaltender Elvis Merzlikins will start Saturday afternoon's game against the Tampa Bay Lightning. The 26-year-old has struggled out of the gate, posting an 0-1-1 record and 4.01 goals-against average through two starts. Things do not get any easier in a battle with the defending Stanley Cup champions, who possess one of the […]

Bashaud Breeland Will Play For Chiefs Defense

Kansas City Chiefs cornerback Bashaud Breeland (concussion) has cleared the league's concussion protocol and has no game status for Sunday. He will play in the AFC Championship against the Buffalo Bills. It's good news for a Chiefs secondary that will be trying to slow down All-Pro wide receiver Stefon Diggs and breakout quarterback Josh Allen […]

Pierre-Luc Dubois Dealt To Jets In Sizable Trade

Columbus Blue Jackets center Pierre-Luc Dubois was traded to the Winnipeg Jets on Saturday afternoon. Dubois had wanted out of Columbus for some time, and the situation came to a boiling point on Thursday when John Tortorella benched him for most of the game. Dubois will get his fresh start with the Jets, likely playing […]

Patrik Laine Traded To Blue Jackets In Blockbuster Deal

Winnipeg Jets right wing Patrik Laine was traded to the Columbus Blue Jackets on Saturday afternoon. The Finnish forward has been the subject of trade rumors for almost two seasons, despite proving to be one of the game's elite goal scorers. Laine is currently sidelined with an upper-body injury, so fantasy managers will have to […]

Dawson Knox Avoidable Versus Chiefs

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox has shown some signs of life in the second half of the season. However, the Bills still don't have a significant role for him in the offense. Last week, Knox hauled in two receptions for 18 yards in the win over the Baltimore Ravens. He has been playing better […]

Gabriel Davis Too Risky To Trust

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Gabriel Davis (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's playoff matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. He was able to get in some limited work late this week, but it sounds like the team is still unsure if he'll suit up. His absence could mean more targets for Stefon Diggs, Cole […]

Cole Beasley Could Be A Risky Choice

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Cole Beasley (knee) was removed from the injury report ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs. This is great news considering Beasley has been dealing with lingering knee issues for a few weeks. It's unclear if Beasley will be limited at all for this matchup. He finished with a […]

John Brown Has Sneaky Value

Buffalo Bills wide receiver John Brown surprisingly had a solid game against the Baltimore Ravens last week. He hauled in eight receptions for 62 yards in the win. Brown has battled injuries all season long, but plays well when he's actually on the field. The Kansas City Chiefs are likely going to do everything in […]

Stefon Diggs Has Fantastic Value Against Chiefs

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs continues to put up video-game numbers, and it seems like no defense has an answer for him. Last week, Diggs hauled in eight receptions for 106 yards and one touchdown in the win over the Baltimore Ravens. Honestly, it seems like Diggs goes over 100 receiving yards in just […]

Devin Singletary Not An Ideal Option

Buffalo Bills running back Devin Singletary remains the workhorse lead back for this offense while Zack Moss (shoulder) is sidelined. However, Singletary didn't see many carries during the victory over the Baltimore Ravens last week. He rushed seven times for 25 yards and hauled in three receptions for 12 yards through the air. It's unlikely […]
