Washington Capitals left wing Alex Ovechkin became the eighth player in NHL history to score 700 regular-season goals in Saturday's 3-2 loss to New Jersey.

Ben Roethlisberger Throwing The Football

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger (elbow) was seen lightly throwing a football in a video that the Steelers posted on Twitter on Saturday. Roethlisberger only played in two games in 2019 before needing reconstructive surgery on his right elbow, but it looks like he's making progress. He's focused on returning to finish out his contract, […]

Meyers Leonard Remains Out on Saturday

Miami Heat center Meyers Leonard (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He suffered a sprained left ankle in early February and hasn't played since then.

Ben Simmons is Available on Saturday

Philadelphia 76ers guard Ben Simmons (back) is available for Saturday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks.

Simmons shouldn't be limited at […]

Daniel Gafford Joins Starting Five on Saturday

Chicago Bulls center Daniel Gafford will jump into the starting five for Saturday's game against the Phoenix Suns. Luke Kornet (ankle) has been ruled out of this game after spraining his ankle during Friday's practice.

Eric Gordon is Uncertain for Saturday

Houston Rockets guard Eric Gordon (leg) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Utah Jazz. Gordon has missed each of the last three games due to a lower left leg contusion.

Kevin Love is Ruled Out Versus Heat

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Kevin Love (Achilles) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Miami Heat. This isn't surprising news after Love was able to play 23 minutes during Friday's game. The Cavs aren't going to push Love too hard, especially in a back-to-back contest. Larry Nance Jr. is expected to jump into the […]

James Paxton To Start Throwing In 7-10 Days

New York Yankees starting pitcher James Paxton (back) is reportedly set to start throwing in the next seven to 10 days.

Kristaps Porzingis (rest), Luka Doncic (ankle), and Willie Cauley-Stein (personal) have all been ruled out for this game. The Mavs may elect to take the cautious approach and sit Curry as well. Jalen Brunson, Delon Wright, and Tim […]

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (ankle) was unable to participate in Saturday's practice.

Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton (ankle) and forward Dario Saric (ankle) are listed as probable for Saturday's game against the Chicago Bulls. Both players were able to return to the court for Friday's contest. Saric saw 20 minutes, but could see his minutes reduced to the teens with Mikal Bridges playing well right now. Ayton […]

Aron Baynes is Expected to Play on Saturday

Phoenix Suns center Aron Baynes (hip) is listed as probable for Saturday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He missed roughly a month of action before the All-Star break due to a left hip issue.

Colorado Rockies infielder Brendan Rodgers (shoulder) has been recovering faster than expected from labrum surgery, and it's now looking like he'll be playing the field before the end of Cactus League games.

Julio Urias Beginning Season In Starting Rotation

Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Julio Urias will begin the 2020 season as a member of the starting rotation, according to manager Dave Roberts.

The Dodgers have limited Urias' workload in the […]

Luka Doncic is Ruled Out for Saturday

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. He looked fine on Friday when he dropped 33 points, ten rebounds, and nine assists against the Orlando Magic. The Mavs are likely just resting Doncic here as a precaution. Kristaps Porzingis (rest) and Willie Cauley-Stein (personal) are […]

Wendell Carter Jr. Remains Sidelined on Saturday

Chicago Bulls center Wendell Carter Jr. (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Phoenix Suns. He has been sidelined since early January due to a right ankle issue.

Willie Cauley-Stein Will Sit Out Versus Hawks

Dallas Mavericks center Willie Cauley-Stein (personal) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. Kristaps Porzingis (rest) is out as well, so the Mavs are a bit thin for this game. Maximilian Kleber is coming off a 26 point game on Friday, so he'll be worth a look in DFS contests. Boban […]

Dustin May Expected To Throw A Bullpen Session On Sunday

Los Angeles Dodgers pitcher Dustin May (side) will hopefully throw a bullpen session on Sunday as he continues to recover from muscle soreness. Thankfully, the 22-year-old's injury is not a long-term ailment. May is one of the best prospects in the Dodgers' system, and he will get an opportunity in the starting rotation at some […]

Alfonzo McKinnie Won't Play on Saturday

Cleveland Cavaliers forward Alfonzo McKinnie (foot) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Miami Heat. He is dealing with left foot plantar fasciitis, so the only way to heal up is for him to rest. Kevin Porter Jr. and Dante Exum should see extended playing time with McKinnie sidelined. Both players could be […]

Reggie Jackson Will Start on Saturday

Los Angeles Clippers guard Reggie Jackson will jump into the starting five for Saturday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He was able to get through some practices and is ready to make his team debut here. Patrick Beverley (groin) is out, so Jackson should get plenty of chances here. He's worth using as a fantasy […]

Eduardo Rodriguez Will Not Start on Sunday

Rodriguez slipped and fell after his spikes got caught in the mound on Wednesday, causing the injury that is not expected to be a serious concern according to Red […]

Kristaps Porzingis Will Sit Out on Saturday

Dallas Mavericks center Kristaps Porzingis (knee, rest) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. It's the second game of a back-to-back set, so it's not surprising that Porzingis is sitting out.

Seth Lugo Back On A Mound Saturday

New York Mets pitcher Seth Lugo (pinkie) returned to the mound on Saturday and threw a bullpen session five days after breaking his pinkie toe in an accident in his hotel room. It's obviously not a very serious injury and Lugo should be ready to go by Opening Day. The 30-year-old right-hander is extremely valuable […]

Lucas Giolito Throws On Saturday

Chicago White Sox starting pitcher Lucas Giolito (chest) felt 100% after throwing on Saturday. Giolito is recovering from a strained chest muscle and seems to be overcoming the injury. Giolito is coming off of a breakout season and should once again post strong numbers for the White Sox in 2020.

Cole Hamels Still Two Weeks Away From Throwing

Atlanta Braves starter Cole Hamels (shoulder) showed up to Spring Training on Saturday, but the veteran pitcher is still a few weeks away from being cleared to throw.
