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 […]

Jake Allen Earns Nod For Sunday's Action

Montreal Canadiens goaltender Jake Allen will face the Ottawa Senators on Sunday. The Habs are finishing off a back-to-back set after Carey Price faced Toronto on Saturday, so it's a planned start for Allen, who carries a 4-2-0 record. He's looked very solid so far with a 2.01 goals-against average and a .933 save percentage. […]

Austin Rivers Not Playing Against Timberwolves

New York Knicks guard Austin Rivers (illness) is sitting out Sunday's game against Minnesota. Rivers is experiencing a non-COVID related illness, though he was a DNP in each of his previous two games, so the news doesn't affect fantasy rosters much. Look for the Knicks to continue to rotate their trio of point guards against […]

Matt Murray Makes 13th Start On Sunday

Ottawa Senators goaltender Matt Murray will record his 13th start of the season in Sunday's home game against Montreal. The two-time Stanley Cup champ has had a miserable time in Ottawa, but he's been sharp in his previous two matchups with the Habs, going 1-1-0 with a 2.01 goals-against average and a .943 save percentage. […]

Nassourdine Imavov Fights Hard But Drops Decision

Nassourdine Imavov (9-3) had his moments throughout the contest on Saturday, nearly putting Phil Hawes in dire straights. Imavov actually received a draw on one judge's card, but the two other judges went 29-28 in Hawes' favor. Through 15 minutes of action, Imavov landed 57 significant strikes (87 total strikes) and did not attempt any […]

Marcus Smart Hopes To Return After All-Star Break

Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart (calf) is planning to return after the All-Star break for the start of the second half of the season. Smart had been without a timeline for some time since suffering a calf strain on January 30- but head coach Brad Stevens said that the veteran guard participated in some light, […]

Devonte’ Graham Listed As Doubtful

Charlotte Hornets guard Devonte' Graham (knee) is listed as doubtful for Monday's matchup against the Utah Jazz. The 25-year-old has been dealing with discomfort in his left knee, an ailment that caused him to miss Friday night's outing against Golden State. In his stead, Terry Rozier and LaMelo Ball should continue to get a bump […]

J.J. Redick Ejected In The Fourth Quarter Against The Celtics

New Orleans Pelicans guard J.J. Redick was ejected in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game against the Celtics. Redick had been issued a technical foul before he rolled the ball back to the referee during a stoppage of play, which promptly earned him an ejection. It's unclear exactly why he was given such a quick […]

Al-Farouq Aminu To Start On Sunday

Orlando Magic forward Al-Farouq Aminu will start on Sunday against Detroit. The veteran has appeared in only three games this year, having recently logged just 13 minutes the other night against the Golden State Warriors. With the 30-year-old in the starting rotation, Khem Birch and Gary Clark will likely see a decrease in minutes from […]

Andrei Arlovski Unable To Earn Third Straight Win

Andrei Arlovski (30-20) was unable to keep his hot streak alive on Saturday, dropping his bout to the upcoming Tom Aspinall by second-round submission. In 6:09 of action, Arlovski was only able to land 20 significant strikes (22 total strikes) and was unable to defend Aspinall's lone takedown try. Arlovski has always appeared timeless, especially […]

Ben Simmons, Shake Milton Playing On Sunday

Philadelphia 76ers guard Ben Simmons (illness) and guard Shake Milton (ankle) are officially available for the 76ers against the Raptors on Sunday. The 76ers have been without Simmons for two games as he dealt with the stomach flu- and Milton for five games as he managed an ankle sprain, though both will be back on […]

Kyle Lowry Officially Out Against Philly

Toronto Raptors guard Kyle Lowry (thumb) will not play on Sunday against Philadelphia. Head coach Nick Nurse initially indicated that the veteran would miss at least two games, but when he popped up as questionable on the league's official injury report on Saturday, there was speculation he could return sooner than expected. With Lowry out […]

DeMarcus Cousins Downgraded To Questionable

Houston Rockets center DeMarcus Cousins (foot) has been downgraded to questionable for Monday's matchup against Chicago. Although he was initially expected to be active against the Bulls, he continues to deal with soreness in his heel. With reports suggesting that Cousins is anticipated to part ways with the team within the next few days, it […]

Delon Wright Will Miss At Least Two Weeks

Detroit Pistons guard Delon Wright (groin) will be sidelined the next two weeks before being re-evaluated. It was revealed that he suffered a Grade 2 right groin strain, so fantasy managers should expect him to be sidelined for some time. In the meantime, Dennis Smith Jr. will be asked to pick up the slack. He […]

Richaun Holmes Uncertain For Sunday

Sacramento Kings center Richaun Holmes (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He went through a pregame workout on Saturday, but did end up sitting out. Hassan Whiteside has been effective lately and is a strong fantasy option while Holmes is banged up. Marvin Bagley has been producing some sneaky […]

Glenn Robinson III, Harrison Barnes Questionable On Sunday

Sacramento Kings forwards Glenn Robinson III (knee) and Harrison Barnes (foot) are listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Robinson played well on Thursday, but was held out of their last contest due to injury. He would only have low-end streaming appeal with Barnes sidelined again. It sounds like Barnes is nearing […]

DeMarcus Cousins Expected To Play Monday

Houston Rockets center DeMarcus Cousins (foot) is expected to suit up for Monday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He sat out a majority of Sunday's practice, but it sounds like he'll play through the issue. The Rockets are shorthanded with Christian Wood (ankle) sidelined at the moment. Cousins has been getting all the minutes he […]

Top Fantasy Football Rebound Candidates for 2021

Rebound (definition): recover in value, amount, or strength after a previous decrease or decline. I sometimes see the term "rebound" conflated with "breakout." In order for a player to rebound, that player has to have previously been good. In 2020, perhaps the biggest rebound player was Stefon Diggs, who followed up a dismal 2019 campaign with […]

Victor Oladipo Unlikely To Play Monday

Houston Rockets guard Victor Oladipo (foot) is listed as doubtful for Monday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He was unable to suit up for practice on Sunday due to a right foot sprain. Eric Gordon would likely be asked to make another start, assuming Oladipo remains on the sideline. Last outing, Gordon dropped 17 points […]

RotoBaller Mock Draft Review - Biggest Reaches and Regrets

As we steamroll into fantasy baseball draft season, the team here at RotoBaller continues to practice what we preach by partaking in mock drafts. It's the best way to test out plans, gather information to have a better idea of what to expect for the real thing and try out new ideas you've been working […]

Robert Williams Will Have Minutes Monitored

Boston Celtics center Robert Williams III (hip) is going to have his minutes monitored going forward, according to head coach Brad Stevens. He continues to deal with a nagging hip issue, so the team is going to take the cautious approach here. Daniel Theis and Tristan Thompson will see an uptick in value for the […]

Steven Adams Ruled Out On Sunday

New Orleans Pelicans center Steven Adams (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Boston Celtics. This marks the second game in a row that Adams has missed due to an ankle issue. Willy Hernangomez snagged 13 rebounds last outing and appears to be a reliable streaming option right now. Jaxson Hayes will […]

Frans Nielsen Hits Waivers On Sunday

Detroit Red Wings center Frans Nielsen was waived on Sunday. The 36-year-old Dane was once among the league's premier two-way players but has fallen way short of the 31.5 million dollar contract he signed with the Wings in 2016. He still has a year left on the deal following this season. Nielsen managed only nine […]

Carter Hart Takes On Bruins On Sunday

Philadelphia Flyers goaltender Carter Hart will face the Boston Bruins for the fourth time this season on Sunday. He has posted a 0-1-2 record so far with a 4.53 goals-against average and a .865 save percentage. Jakub Voracek and Claude Giroux, who are on the NHL's COVID-19 protocol list, will be absent among other players, […]

Michael King Adding A Third Pitch To His Arsenal

New York Yankees pitcher Michael King has reportedly spent the offseason working to add a third pitch to his arsenal. King struggled in 26.2 innings last season with a 7.76 ERA and 5.14 FIP, but he'll compete for a job in the starting rotation during spring training. It's not exactly clear what King considers to […]

Tuukka Rask Starts For Boston At Lake Tahoe

Boston Bruins goaltender Tuukka Rask will start Sunday's outdoor game at Lake Tahoe against Philadelphia. The Flyers head into the clash without a number of key guys, so Rask is in a great spot to continue his domination against Philly. He has an 18-2-4 career record against the Flyers with a 2.02 goals-against average, a […]
