Rodney Hood Could Miss Sunday's Game

Portland Trail Blazers forward Rodney Hood (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. He exited early during Friday's game due to a left foot sprain. Although, Hood hasn't offered much fantasy value even when healthy. Gary Trent Jr. is starting over him and has played much better lately. Trent is […]

Joel Embiid Pours In 35 Points In Losing Effort

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid kept up his red-hot play with another 35 points in Saturday's loss to the Suns. Embiid displayed the level of efficiency that his category managers have come to love, as he shot 12 of 23 from the field, made both three-pointers, and shot 9-for-10 from the charity stripe. The star […]

Kevin Lankinen Will Start Against Columbus

Chicago Blackhawks goalie Kevin Lankinen will be starting against the Columbus Blue Jackets Saturday night. Lankinen allowed six goals in his last outing, losing to Columbus 6-5. The rookie netminder is 5-2-3, with a goals-against-average of 2.55 and a .924 save percentage. Lankinen has played well thus far. For fantasy managers, it might be worth […]

Joey Logano qualifies middle of pack, should move up

Logano qualified 21st for this year's Daytona 500. The racer has not come close to winning since finishing in the winner's circle in 2015. His best finishes were in fourth (2018 and 2019). In those years, he qualified in the top-five. Expectations are that Logano will likely move up but may not be significant enough […]

Arizona Coyotes center Johan Larsson is suspended for an illegal check to the head for the next two games. Zach Sanford of the St. Louis Blues was the recipient of the hit.

Yankees Sign Jay Bruce

New York Yankees outfielder Jay Bruce signed a minor-league contract with the team on Saturday. Bruce has a shot to make the team's Opening Day roster given its general lack of left-handed hitters, and his signing makes it even less likely that outfielder Brett Gardner (who has reportedly yet to receive an offer from the […]

Luke Voit Fully Healthy

New York Yankees first baseman Luke Voit (foot) is fully healthy and ready to participate in all baseball activities. There was never any reported doubt that Voit would be ready to go for Opening Day after suffering from plantar fasciitis during the 2020 season, but injuries can be tricky and it's good to see Voit […]

Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton Trying New Workout Programs

New York Yankees outfielders Aaron Judge and Giancarlo Stanton have both made significant changes to their offseason workout programs with a focus on staying healthy for the duration of the 2021 season.

Yuta Watanabe Unlikely To Suit Up Sunday

Toronto Raptors small/power forward Yuta Watanabe (ankle) has been deemed doubtful to take the floor for Sunday's contest against the Timberwolves due to a sprained left ankle.

Steven Stamkos Out On Saturday

Tampa Bay Lightning forward Steven Stamkos will not suit up as his team faces off against the Florida Panthers on Saturday. The 31-year-old missed the Bolt's last contest versus the Panthers on Thursday and was added to the NHL's covid list on Friday afternoon. Stamkos has been a massive part of his team's hot start […]

James Ennis, Al Farouq-Aminu Questionable To Play Sunday

Orlando Magic forwards James Ennis (groin) and Al-Farouq Aminu (knee) have both been listed as questionable to play in Sunday's contest against the Suns.

Alex Galchenyuk Traded To Carolina On Saturday

The Ottawa Senators traded forward Alex Galchenyuk (along with forward Cedric Paquette) to the Carolina Hurricanes in exchange for forward Ryan Dzingel on Saturday. The 27-year-old, who signed with the Sens as a free-agent this past offseason, had posted just one goal and a minus-six rating in eight games in Ottawa this season. Despite possessing […]

Mike Scott Returns To Action For Saturday’s Contest

Philadelphia 76ers power forward Mike Scott (knee) has been cleared to suit up for Saturday's game against the Suns, marking his first in-game action since Jan. 14. Scott has played a minimal role off the bench this season for Philly (4.9 PPG), but with Shake Milton (ankle) absent from the second unit, the veteran forward […]

Martin Jones Starts On Saturday Versus Vegas

San Jose Sharks goaltender Martin Jones will get the nod in the crease as his team hosts the San Jose Sharks on Saturday afternoon. The 31-year-old is coming off a forgettable performance versus the Los Angeles Kings on Thursday in which he allowed six goals on 26 shots. Having posted a 4.09 goals-against average and […]

Ish Smith Unlikely To Suit Up Sunday

Washington Wizards point guard Ish Smith (quad) has been verbally made doubtful to play in Sunday's contest against the Celtics due to a quad ailment.

Pierre-Luc Dubois Officially Out On Saturday

Winnipeg Jets forward Pierre-Luc Dubois has officially been ruled out for Saturday's matinee matchup versus the Ottawa Senators. The Jets have listed Dubois as day-to-day with a lower-body injury, an ailment that required him to depart the team's practice early on Friday. The 22-year-old has been held scoreless in his first two contests with the […]

Frank Mason III Will Miss His Second Straight Game Sunday

Orlando Magic point guard Frank Mason III (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's contest versus Phoenix due to a strained right groin. Mason made one start since joining the squad as backcourt depth but recent injury to Cole Anthony (shoulder) has thrust him into a larger role when healthy. With both Mason and Anthony […]

P.J. Washington Unlikely To Return For Sunday’s Game

Charlotte Hornets power forward/center P.J. Washington is listed as doubtful to play in Sunday's contest against San Antonio as he continues to work through the league's health and safety protocols. His absence has allowed head coach James Borrego to continue starting his three-headed backcourt trio of LaMelo Ball, Terry Rozier, and Devonte' Graham, with Miles […]

Cole Anthony, Evan Fournier Questionable To Return Sunday

Orlando Magic point guard Cole Anthony (shoulder) and shooting guard/small forward Evan Fournier (back) have been deemed questionable to suit up for Sunday's contest against the Suns.

Dario Saric, Cameron Payne, Abdel Nader Will Play Saturday

The Phoenix Suns will get a shot of life back into their depth chart Saturday versus the 76ers with the return of power forward/center Dario Saric (ankle), point guard Cameron Payne (foot), and small forward Abdel Nader (ankle) all cleared to return to action. Saric is the most fantasy-relevant of the trio, although he'll be […]

Toronto Lists OG Anunoby As Questionable For Sunday

Toronto Raptors small forward OG Anunoby (calf) was able to practice Saturday, leading to the team listing him as questionable to play in Sunday's game versus Minnesota as he recovers from a strained left calf. Anunoby's return has been circling for a few days now, with Norman Powell's corresponding fantasy stock in a perilous spot […]

Tony Snell Earns Questionable Tag For Saturday

Atlanta Hawks shooting guard/small forward Tony Snell (Achilles) has picked up a questionable designation for Saturday's contest versus the Pacers as he works through a sore right Achilles. Snell has seen an increased role with the second unit over the past five games, having dished out a pair of assists in each contest. Shooting 76.9 […]

Rajon Rondo Misses Third Straight Game Saturday

Atlanta Hawks point guard Rajon Rondo (back) has been ruled out for Saturday's contest against the Pacers due to persistent lower back pain. Rondo will now have missed each of Atlanta's last three contests, which has paved the way for Trae Young to see an incremental minutes bump without his primary backup available. Following a […]

Shake Milton Likely To Miss At Least Two More Games

Philadelphia 76ers point/shooting guard Shake Milton (ankle) is not expected to suit up either Saturday versus Phoenix or Monday against Utah as he works his way through an ankle sprain.

Brady Tkachuk Worth A Hold In Most Fantasy Formats

Ottawa Senators forward Brady Tkachuk will take his usual place on his team's top line in Saturday's afternoon rematch with the Winnipeg Jets. Having produced just one assist in his past six contests, Tkachuk is looking to break through and find his way back onto the scoresheet in the matinee. Coming off a strong 44-point […]
