Magneuris Sierra Placed On The Injured List

Miami Marlins outfielder Magneuris Sierra has been placed on the 10-day injured list due to a strained right hamstring. Sierra was hitting .278/.372/.417 with four stolen bases. He was starting to develop legitimate mixed league value, so hopefully the injury doesn't keep him out too long. In a corresponding move, the Marlins called up left-handed […]

Pacers Have Fired Nate McMillan

Indiana Pacers head coach Nate McMillan has been fired by the organization on Wednesday. This comes as quite a surprise after McMillan received an extension roughly two weeks ago. He lead Indiana to a 183-136 record over the last four years. It's tough to blame him for their early playoff exit. The team was without […]

Russell Westbrook Upgraded To Questionable

Houston Rockets guard Russell Westbrook (quad) is listed as questionable for Game 5 against the Oklahoma City Thunder on Wednesday. He was originally listed as out, but it appears that he's making solid progress. The team is likely going to wait and see how he feels in warmups before making the final call. His return […]

Luka Doncic Might Miss Game 6

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday's Game 6 against the Los Angeles Clippers. He was able to battle through the pain during Game 5, but it didn't help that Marcus Morris stepped on his ankle. Doncic managed to play 31 minutes in the blowout loss to the Clippers. Seth […]

Kristaps Porzingis Listed As Questionable For Thursday

Dallas Mavericks center Kristaps Porzingis (knee) is listed as questionable for Thursday's Game 6 matchup versus the Los Angeles Clippers. Head coach Rick Carlisle seemed hopeful that Porzingis could return here, but we'll have to wait and see how he's feeling on Thursday. Maximilian Kleber and Boban Marjanovic have been asked to step up with […]

Trey Burke Could Sit Out Game 6

Dallas Mavericks guard Trey Burke (ankle) is listed as questionable for Game 6 against the Los Angeles Clippers on Thursday. He has been listed as probable since Game 2, but managed to play on Tuesday. Burke dropped 15 points in 29 minutes during their last contest. He could be a fairly appealing DFS option with […]

Dorian Finney-Smith Questionable For Thursday

Dallas Mavericks forward Dorian Finney-Smith (hip) is listed as questionable for Thursday's Game 6 versus the Los Angeles Clippers. The Mavs are fairly banged up right now, so they could use Finney-Smith on the court. He managed to play through the pain on Tuesday, but didn't play great. He finished with nine points in 27 […]

Kyle Lowry Sits Out Of Wednesday's Practice

Toronto Raptors guard Kyle Lowry (ankle) was unable to suit up for Wednesday's practice. Lowry continues to battle a left ankle sprain and is currently listed as questionable for Thursday's Game 1 matchup versus the Boston Celtics. Fred Vanvleet and Norman Powell would see increased usage and value if Lowry is unable to play. Pascal […]

Abraham Ancer Still Seeking First Win

Abraham Ancer is still seeking his first win on the PGA Tour. He is having arguably his best season on Tour with two second-place finishes and two other top-10 finishes. He enters the week 19th in FedEx Cup points, well inside the top 35 to make it to East Lake. Ancer ranks 18th in total […]

Aleksandar Rakic Looking For A Statement Win In Main Event

Aleksandar Rakic (12-2) is coming off of the first win since his professional debut when he dropped a split decision to Volkan Oezdemir in December of 2019. Rakic is a devastating striker, with nine of his 12 career wins coming by knockout. Prior to the split-decision loss, Rakic was coming off of back-to-back first-round knockouts […]

David Mayo Could Be Back In Three Weeks

New York Giants linebacker David Mayo (knee) is expected to have surgery to trim his injured meniscus, according to a source. It won't be a full repair, so that could put him back on the field in around three weeks. It's good news for Mayo, but there's still a good chance that he won't be […]

Anthony Smith Needs A Big Win To Jump Into Title Picture

The UFC's No. 5 light heavyweight, Anthony Smith (33-15) needs a big win if he wants to jump into the title picture, which is now wide open with the vacating by Jon Jones. Lionheart has lost two of his last three bouts, including his most recent bout, which was a fifth-round TKO to Glover Teixeira. […]

Neil Magny Looking For Third Victory In A Row

Neil Magny (23-7) will battle knockout legend Robbie Lawler on three weeks notice in the co-main event of Saturday's card. Magny is currently riding a two-fight winning streak, and with a third he would potentially earn matchups against top-10 contenders. Magny will look to take down Lawler, as he lands 26% of his significant strikes. […]

Robbie Lawler Back in Action In Saturday's Co-Main Event Slot

Robbie Lawler (28-14) has lost three of his last four bouts, but he is always one punch away from ending the contest. Twenty of Lawler's 28 professional wins have come by knockout. The 38-year-old fighter was last victorious in 2017 when he won a decision against Donald Ceronne. The last time he was on a […]

Aaron Gordon Won't Play In Game 5

Orlando Magic forward Aaron Gordon (hamstring) has been ruled out for Wednesday's Game 5 versus the Milwaukee Bucks. It was unlikely that he was going to suit up anyway after head coach Steve Clifford mentioned Gordon was unable to sprint on Tuesday. Orlando is already down 3-1, so Gordon very well might be out for […]

Alexa Grasso Finally Set To Compete In 2020

Alexa Grasso (11-3) will finally compete in 2020 after two cancelled bouts due to COVID-19. Grasso is grinding-style fighter, with seven of her wins coming by decision. In the UFC, she is 3-3 with notable wins over Randa Markos and Karolina Kowalkiewicz. Grasso lands a solid 5.25 significant strikes per minute, with 96% of those […]

Ji Yeon Kim Set For Tough Task Saturday Night

Ji Yeon Kim (9-2-2) is set for a very tough task Saturday as she takes on No. 14 strawweight Alexa Grasso. Kim has finished five of her nine victories. Kim will look to earn her second victory in a row, coming off of her October 2019 TKO victory against Nadia Kassem. DraftKings has the South […]

Jason Day Comes Into Illinois As A Forgotten Option

It was a miserable display last weekend for Jason Day at the Northern Trust, as he imploded on Friday with a paltry 75 to miss the cut. For DFS gamers, Day's performance was a lineup killer, as the Aussie was one of the highest-owned players for the event. It will be interesting to see what […]

Patrick Cantlay Continues To Struggle

Patrick Cantlay put together his fourth straight finish outside the top 30 last weekend at the Northern Trust, this time missing the cut along the way. Cantlay has struggled during the restart, with only one top-10 finish in his six starts, but we wouldn't count him out in Illinois. The American is one of the […]

Xander Schauffele Is Ready For Olympia Fields

After providing six straight top-25 showings since the Travelers Championship, Xander Schauffele will look to keep the momentum rolling this weekend in Illinois. Schauffele's game is an ideal fit to find success at a narrow and difficult test that will be Olympia Fields, and his superb greens in regulation percentage should make him one of […]

Mike Tauchman Leading Off In Game 1 Wednesday

New York Yankees outfielder Mike Tauchman is hitting leadoff for just the second time this year in Game 1 of the team's doubleheader against the Atlanta Braves on Wednesday. Tauchman has been solid over his limited appearances this year. Through 51 at-bats, he's slashing .333/.404/.431 with seven RBI, 10 runs and five stolen bases. He's […]

Adam Scott Looks For Form

Adam Scott doesn't get a pass for his four-over round on Saturday at the Northern Trust, because we have seen this story one too many times, but his negative-5.315 strokes on the greens was a little out of left field with what we have seen from him over the past year. Scott has gained strokes […]

Le'Veon Bell Unhappy After Being Forced To Leave Practice

New York Jets running back Le'Veon Bell (hamstring) was pulled from practice as a precaution on Wednesday due to a tight hamstring, but Bell took to Twitter to dispute head coach Adam Gase, saying, "ain't nothin (sic) wrong with my hamstrings." If you haven't learned yet, Bell and Gase aren't exactly best buddies, but even […]

J.D. Martinez Still Lacking In Power Numbers

Boston Red Sox outfielder J.D. Martinez has yet to produce the type of power numbers we've grown accustomed to in recent years. Through 29 games this year, Martinez is slashing .219/.308/.390 with three home runs and 15 RBI. He posted an OPS north of 1.000 in three of the past four years, but this year his […]

Xavier McKinney Suffers Broken Foot, David Mayo Tears Meniscus

New York Giants second-round rookie safety Xavier McKinney (foot) suffered a broken fifth metatarsal and will undergo surgery on Wednesday. He's expected to be out for around 10 weeks. Meanwhile, linebacker David Mayo (knee) has a torn meniscus. McKinney was one of the best safeties in the 2020 draft class, so this is a big […]

David Montgomery Suffers Groin Strain Wednesday

Updating a previous report, Chicago Bears head coach Matt Nagy said that running back David Montgomery (groin) suffered a groin strain in practice on Wednesday and is undergoing further testing. The Bears are optimistic that it's not a serious injury. It was reported earlier that Montgomery was carted off the field, but he actually walked […]

Starling Marte Having A Stellar 2020 Season

Arizona Diamondbacks outfielder Starling Marte is having a solid debut season with the team. Through 29 games, he is slashing .311/.388/.443 with two home runs, 11 RBI, 18 runs and five stolen bases. He's striking out just 13.2% of the time, well below his career average of 21.7%. He isn't making as much hard contact […]

Parris Campbell Involved In Minor Car Accident

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Parris Campbell was involved in a minor car accident on Wednesday and will enter the concussion protocol. The Colts are probably being overly cautious here, but it's something to watch in the coming days. There's a lot to like about the 23-year-old second-year player with Philip Rivers now under center in […]
