Last night was as close as I thought it would be, and we did see some more one-off lineups take the day. Both of my underdogs fell short in a sad way. V5 with some poor calls around the herald, and BLG with another questionably draft in game one. Gloomy days indeed, but with a […]

Brewers Still Listening On Josh Hader

The Milwaukee Brewers continue to listen to trade inquiries on relief pitcher Josh Hader, according to league sources.

Minnesota Timberwolves point/shooting guard D'Angelo Russell (quad) has been bumped up to questionable to play in Wednesday's contest versus the Warriors as he continues to battle a quad bruise.

Russell Westbrook Faces Minutes Limit Tuesday

The Washington Wizards may be short on players under the league's health and safety protocols, but that doesn't mean that point guard Russell Westbrook will have his minutes restriction removed for Tuesday's contest.

Domantas Sabonis Earns Questionable Tag For Wednesday
