Drew Brees In Position For Productive Day Against Falcons

New Orleans Saints quarterback Drew Brees has seemingly had a couple of shaky outings since returning from his rib/lung injuries. However, he ended up with three touchdown passes in the first game and produced 311 yards and a season-high 12.0 yards per attempt in the second. It may not be pretty, but the veteran signal-caller […]

Deandre Ayton Doesn't Get Going Against Jazz

Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton was just 2-for-8 from the floor in Thursday's win over the Utah Jazz. He didn't make a trip to the free-throw line and finished with just four points. Ayton did grab nine boards and add three assists, a steal, and two blocks to the ledger, but he hasn't scored more […]

Devin Booker Scores 25 Points To Close 2020

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker scored 25 points on 10-for-17 shooting in Thursday's win over the Utah Jazz. Booker was 1-for-2 from deep and also added seven assists and three rebounds.

Steven Adams Records Double-Double

New Orleans Pelicans center Steven Adams produced his first double-double of the season in a blowout victory over his former team, the Thunder. Adams got some measure of revenge, notching season-highs in points and rebounds while blocking a shot for the fifth consecutive game. The 27-year-old isn't a threat from the three-point line and won't […]

New Orleans Pelicans point guard Lonzo Ball recorded 16 points, nine assists, eight rebounds, two triples, and a steal in a 113-80 win over the Thunder.

VanVleet made four three-pointers. VanVleet's had an up-and-down season, scoring 25-plus points twice and under 10 points in his other two games. […]

Pascal Siakam Was Late Scratch Against Knicks

Toronto Raptors forward Pascal Siakam didn't play in Thursday's win over the New York Knicks, with NBA insider Shams Charania saying it was for disciplinary measures after Siakam left the floor early during Tuesday's game against the 76ers. While the initial news of Siakam sitting was met with rumors he might be involved in a […]

RJ Barrett's Shot Is Off On New Year's Eve

New York Knicks guard RJ Barrett couldn't find his shot on Thursday, going 0-for-8 from three and 4-for-19 from the floor in a loss to the Raptors. He finished with 12 points, eight rebounds, three assists, and a steal. The second-year wing has shot under 30 percent in three of the last four games now […]

Eric Gordon Solid In Season Debut

After missing the first week of the season due to COVID-19-related reasons, Houston Rockets guard Eric Gordon saw his first action of the 20-21 season in Thursday's win over Sacramento. He was 6-for-12 from the floor with 17 points and also added two rebounds and two steals. It's hard to get too excited about Gordon […]

John Wall With 22 In Rockets Debut

Point guard John Wall made his Houston Rockets regular-season debut in Thursday night's win over the Kings, playing 36 minutes and scoring 22 points on 8-for-20 shooting. He also added six rebounds and nine assists. He did have five turnovers, but that's to be expected for a player whose last meaningful minutes were in December […]

Richaun Holmes With New Year's Eve Double-Double

Sacramento Kings center Richaun Holmes had 22 points on 10-for-13 shooting in Thursday's loss to the Houston Rockets. Holmes also grabbed 13 rebounds in 35 minutes of action and added two assists, two steals, and a block. With Hassan Whiteside playing just three minutes in this game, it seems like Holmes has really taken hold […]

Nikola Vucevic Notches Fourth Double-Double Of The Season

Orlando Magic center Nikola Vucevic had a tough matchup against Joel Embiid on Thursday, but he played well and recorded his fourth double-double of the season with 19 points and 10 rebounds. Sadly for him and fantasy managers, the game turned into a blowout and thus Vucevic ended up logging only 24 minutes. He shot […]

Joel Embiid Has Double-Double Streak Cut

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid kept it rolling on Thursday against Orlando with 21 points in 27 minutes, but his double-double streak ended as he finished with nine rebounds. He also had a pair of blocks and dimes while shooting 7-for-11 from the field and 6-for-8 at the line. Embiid has played great at the […]

Seth Curry Sinks Five Treys Against Orlando

Philadelphia 76ers shooting guard Seth Curry was in great form on Thursday against Orlando, finishing a big 116-92 win with 21 points. He shot a superb 5-for-7 from downtown and 7-for-12 overall from the field, adding three steals, one assist, and one rebound. Curry had a rough season opener, but he has since then shot […]

Russell Westbrook Produces Fourth Straight Triple-Double

Washington Wizards guard Russell Westbrook produced his fourth straight triple-double in a 133-130 loss to the Bulls. Westbrook has produced monster stats to start the year, though the struggles with shooting efficiency, as well as turnovers, have hurt his fantasy value. He's turned the ball over 5.7 times this year- for comparison, he averaged 5.4 […]

Otto Porter Delivers 28-Point Double-Double

Chicago Bulls forward Otto Porter helped lead his team to a 133-130 victory over his former employer with 28 points and 12 rebounds. Porter shot 10 of 14 from the field and added five triples, three assists, and three steals in 31 minutes. As head coach Billy Donovan stated, Porter's minutes have been limited to […]

Thomas Bryant Scores Efficient 28 Points

Washington Wizards center Thomas Bryant put on a dominant performance in a 133-130 loss to Chicago. Bryant scored a season-high 28 points with three boards, three blocks, and a steal in 34 minutes- he was on fire to start the contest, having made his first nine field-goal attempts. Despite being in foul trouble in three […]

T.J. Warren Out Indefinitely With Stress Fracture In Foot

Indiana Pacers forward T.J. Warren (foot) will undergo surgery to repair a stress fracture in his left foot. Warren, who was already dealing with plantar fasciitis, will be out indefinitely after the surgery. This is a huge blow to Warren and the Pacers after their 4-1 start to the season. It's safe to say Warren […]

Collin Sexton Leads Cavs In Scoring Again

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Collin Sexton led the team in scoring once more in Thursday's matchup against Indiana, notching a game-high 28 points on 12-for-19 shooting. He sank both of his attempts from deep while adding four assists, one rebound, and one steal. His backcourt mate and partner in crime Darius Garland also put together a […]

LaMarcus Aldridge Listed As Questionable Against Lakers

San Antonio Spurs forward/center LaMarcus Aldridge (knee) is listed as questionable against the Los Angeles Lakers Friday. Aldridge missed the game against the Lakers on Wednesday due to knee soreness and his minutes have been unusually low all season. Jakob Poeltl posted eight points and seven rebounds in the spot start on Wednesday and will […]

Doug McDermott Gets Close To Double-Double

Indiana Pacers small forward Doug McDermott had a nice bench outing on Thursday against Cleveland, notching 18 points and nine rebounds off the bench. McBuckets shot 3-for-6 from deep and 6-for-13 overall from the field in 25 minutes of action. It was a very good bounce-back performance by McDermott, who managed only two points in […]

Jimmy Butler Is Probable Friday Against Dallas

Miami Heat guard/forward Jimmy Butler (ankle) is listed as probable and will likely play against the Dallas Mavericks on Friday. Butler left with a sprained ankle on Christmas Day and has missed the past two contests, but appears to have made progress on the ailment. If Butler is able to return, Andre Iguodala will likely […]
