Gabe Vincent Listed As Probable Versus Pistons

Miami Heat guard Gabe Vincent (knee) is listed as probable for Monday's game against the Detroit Pistons. He played on Saturday, but struggled and only played 16 minutes before fouling out. Tyler Herro (neck) is listed as questionable, so Vincent could have some streaming appeal without Herro on the court. Otherwise, it's tough to imagine […]

Jalen Brunson Expected To Play On Monday

Dallas Mavericks guard Jalen Brunson (COVID-19) is expected to suit up for Monday's game against the Toronto Raptors, according to head coach Rick Carlisle. He continues to test negative, but hasn't been cleared to play yet. The Mavs could've used Brunson during Sunday's loss to the Chicago Bulls. Hopefully, Dallas will get him back for […]

Tim Hardaway Jr. Could Sit Out On Monday

Dallas Mavericks guard Tim Hardaway Jr. (groin) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He sat out of Saturday's game due to a left groin strain. Possibly, Hardaway has healed up by now, but fantasy managers will likely have to wait until closer to tip-off. Trey Burke would gain the most […]

Kevin Porter Jr. Expected To Be Released

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Kevin Porter Jr. has not played this season and won't likely be taking the court anytime soon. The organization is reportedly seeking to trade or release Porter after an outburst in the locker room. Cleveland gave his locker to Taurean Prince and the second-year guard grew angry. The Cavs spent the weekend […]

Mitchell Robinson Will Play On Monday

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (knee) will be in the starting lineup for Monday's game against the Orlando Magic. He is dealing with right knee soreness, but it sounds like he'll suit up for this game. Nerlens Noel or Taj Gibson could see increased playing time if Robinson is limited at all. It sounds […]

Alec Burks Remains Out Versus Magic

New York Knicks guard Alec Burks (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Orlando Magic. There was hope that Burks would suit up here, but the team has decided to give him an extra day off. Austin Rivers and RJ Barrett will continue to see increased value until Burks returns.

Thomas Greiss Facing Blue Jackets Monday

Detroit Red Wings goaltender Thomas Greiss will be in net for Monday's afternoon matchup with the Columbus Blue Jackets. The German netminder performed admirably in the team's season opener, turning aside 40 of 42 shots. Greiss may not get a ton of offensive support this season, but he has proven to be an effective NHL […]

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Rob Gronkowski caught one of five targets for 14 receiving yards in a 30-20 win over New Orleans. Gronkowski had yet another quiet outing as a pass-catcher, though he was far more involved in the gameplan this time. Tom Brady looked his way in the red zone, so the usage […]

Cameron Brate Leads Team In Receiving Yards

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cameron Brate led the team in receiving yards in a playoff win over the Saints. Brate hauled in four of five targets for 50 receiving yards, as he once again showed some good chemistry with Tom Brady down the field. The veteran tight end has produced eight catches for 130 […]

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Antonio Brown caught just one pass for 10 receiving yards in Sunday's 30-20 divisional-round win over New Orleans.

Chris Godwin Paces Team In Targets

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Chris Godwin hauled in four of seven targets for 34 receiving yards in Sunday's victory over New Orleans. Godwin did lead the team in targets, though it could have been a far more productive day had he hauled in a long pass from Tom Brady in the end zone. The […]

Jared Cook Manages 28 Yards

New Orleans Saints tight end Jared Cook finished with five receptions for 28 yards on seven targets in Sunday's loss to Tampa. The tight end also lost a crucial fumble which swayed the outcome of the game. Cook finishes 2020 with 37 receptions for 504 yards and seven touchdowns. The tight end will be a […]

Mike Evans Hauls In Touchdown Against Saints

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Mike Evans caught one of three targets for a three-yard touchdown in a 30-20 win over the Saints. Evans was held in check for most of the day by Saints' corner Marshon Lattimore- though he was able to beat him in the end zone for a score. That's his 14th […]

Ronald Jones II Picks Up 62 Rushing Yards In Return

Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Ronald Jones II carried the ball 13 times for 62 rushing yards in a playoff victory over New Orleans. Jones averaged 4.8 yards per carry and showed some good burst in his first game back from a quad injury. He ripped off a long run that was called back due […]
