Joonas Korpisalo Shuts Out Washington 3-0

It’s been an up-and-down season for Joonas Korpisalo, who is in his first season as the starting goaltender for the Columbus Blue Jackets but he was aces on Monday night. He’s been excellent now in three of his last four starts and could be finding his groove. Keep in mind that Korpisalo has never produced […]

Oliver Bjorkstrand Scores Twice In Win Over Capitals

Oliver Bjorkstrand scored two of the three goals for the Blue Jackets in a 3-0 win over a very good Capitals team. He could be poised for a breakout in the second half of the season and is a player who bears watching with just 11% ownership in Yahoo leagues. Along with playing on the […]

Markieff Morris Matches A Season-High Versus Washington

Detroit Pistons forward Markieff Morris had one of his best outings of the season with 22 points on 8-for-13 shooting to go with six rebounds and three assists. This marks his third straight outing in double-figures, although it certainly helped Morris that both Blake Griffin and Andre Drummond were on the mend for this game. […]

Bruce Brown Jr. Scores 20 Against The Wizards

Detroit Pistons shooting guard Bruce Brown Jr. scored a team-high 20 points in a double-digit loss to Washington along with six rebounds and three assists. He chipped in two three-pointers and shot a sparkling 8-for-8 from the free-throw line as well. This marks the second encouraging game in a row for Brown, who had previously […]

Isaiah Thomas Drops An Efficient 23 Points Against Detroit

Washington Wizards point guard Isaiah Thomas returned from a calf injury with seemingly no lingering issues by dropping 23 points on 9-for-12 shooting, with six assists. IT had missed the previous five games but came out on a mission, dropping five three-pointers in the win as well. Washington is a fantasy-friendly environment as one of […]

Davis Bertans Continues Hot Shooting Against The Pistons

Washington Wizards forward Davis Bertans was once again stellar from beyond the arc against Detroit Monday night, shooting 3-for-6 from the three-point line to finish with 17 points. A Dec. 14 outing against Memphis aside, Bertans has hit multiple three-pointers in 14 of Washington's last 15 games. His 3.8 makes per game rank third in […]

Bradley Beal Drops A Double-Double Against Detroit

Washington Wizards shooting guard Bradley Beal was spectacular versus the Pistons on Monday, posting 35 points, 10 assists, and five three-pointers. It was that kind of night for the Wizards as a whole, who used a 43-point opening frame to hang 133 points in a double-digit victory over Detroit. Beal also shot 12-of-24 from the […]

T.Y. Hilton Expected to Play on Monday Night

Indianapolis Colts wide receiver T.Y. Hilton (calf) is expected to play on Monday Night Football against the New Orleans Saints. Hilton hasn't played since Week 12, and even then he played an extremely limited role. Hilton was able to practice on Thursday and Friday and should be on the field on Monday barring an unexpected […]

Avisail Garcia Signs With the Brewers

The Milwaukee Brewers have signed free agent outfielder Avisail Garcia to a two-year, $20 million contract. The two sides had been reportedly "close" to a deal since before the weekend, and it seems they were finally able to agree to terms on Monday. Garcia slashed .282/.332/.464 for the Rays in 2019 and will presumably take […]

Isaiah Thomas Will Play Monday

Washington Wizards guard Isaiah Thomas (calf) will play in Monday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Thomas has missed the last five games due to a left calf strain. He'll be back in the starting five on Monday, according to head coach Scott Brooks. Ish Smith will lose most of his streaming appeal, while Troy Brown's […]

Josh Gordon Suspended Indefinitely - Again

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver Josh Gordon has been suspended indefinitely by the NFL for violating the league's policy on performance-enhancing substances and substances of abuse. The NFL does not announce what type of substance the player tested positive for, but Gordon has a long history of struggles with substances of abuse. From a football standpoint, […]

Andre Drummond is Available for Monday

Detroit Pistons center Andre Drummond (eye) is available for Monday's game against the Washington Wizards. He didn't play on Saturday, but it appears Drummond feels well enough to suit up here. Blake Griffin (knee) won't suit up, so Drummond will be asked to carry the load. Christian Wood and Markieff Morris will fill in for […]

Blake Griffin is Out on Monday

Detroit Pistons forward Blake Griffin (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Washington Wizards. Griffin had an MRI on his left knee on Sunday, so fantasy owners will have to wait for those results to be revealed. Markieff Morris and Christian Wood will see increased playing time with Griffin sidelined. Wood is […]

Fred Vanvleet is Doubtful Against Cavs

Toronto Raptors guard Fred Vanvleet (knee) is listed as doubtful for Monday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He's been sidelined for about a week due to a right knee contusion. He'll likely test out his knee during warmups, so fantasy owners will have to wait until then. Norman Powell has seen an increased role with […]

Austin Rivers is Probable for Monday

Houston Rockets guard Austin Rivers (finger) is listed as probable for Monday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. He recently returned from an illness, but Rivers is dealing with a sprained left finger now. It sounds like he'll be fine for Monday, but Ben McLemore would get more minutes if Rivers sits. McLemore is looking […]

Kevin Huerter is Questionable for Tuesday

Atlanta Hawks guard Kevin Huerter (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the New York Knicks. He left Sunday's game due to a left shoulder contusion and didn't return. It's possible that the Hawks were just being cautious and it's a minor issue. More information should be known on Tuesday, so fantasy owners […]

Isaiah Thomas Might Play on Monday

Washington Wizards guard Isaiah Thomas (calf) is questionable for Monday's game against the Detroit Pistons. He was able to go through shootaround, so there's a chance he returns for this one after missing five straight games. Ish Smith would lose most of his streaming appeal with Thomas back in the rotation. Troy Brown might lose […]

Robert Williams is Out Three Weeks

Boston Celtics center Robert Williams (hip) is going to be sidelined for at least the next three weeks. He's been diagnosed with a bone edema in his left hip and will be re-evaluated in three weeks. Daniel Theis and Enes Kanter will be asked to split up the minutes at center. Theis has more fantasy […]

Jae Crowder is Expected to Play on Monday

Memphis Grizzlies forward Jae Crowder (ankle) is expected to suit up for Monday's game against the Miami Heat. He's dealing with left ankle soreness, but should be out there unless he suffers a setback during warmups. Kyle Anderson would see increased minutes if Crowder is unable to play. However, Anderson hasn't been impressive this season […]

Marcus Smart Misses Practice on Monday

Boston Celtics guard Marcus Smart (eye) was unable to suit up for practice on Monday. He's missed three games in a row due to a left eye infection. It has reportedly spread to his right eye, so his status for Wednesday's game is trending in the wrong direction. Brad Wanamaker and Semi Ojeleye have seen […]

Kyrie Irving Won't Travel for Road Trip

Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving (shoulder) won't travel with the organization for their upcoming two game road trip. Fantasy owners can go ahead and rule out Irving for Tuesday vs New Orleans and Thursday against the Spurs. The Nets don't have a timetable for his return, so it's unclear when Irving will take the court […]

Devin Booker is Questionable for Monday

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (forearm) is questionable for Monday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He was able to get up some shots on Sunday, so the Suns are going to wait and see how Booker feels closer to tip-off. Mikal Bridges is the best bet for fantasy leagues if Booker is out. Fantasy […]

Marvin Williams is Probable for Tuesday

Charlotte Hornets forward Marvin Williams (knee) is listed as probable for Tuesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Williams should see more playing time coming his way with PJ Washington (finger) sidelined. The Hornets have been reportedly shopping Williams on the trade market. He's going to carry decent fantasy value while Washington is out.

Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups, Adds for Week 9

The waiver wire is where leagues are won and lost. The draft is long past and now your rosters feel completely different if you are even moderately active.

Panthers Expected To Start Will Grier In Week 16

The Carolina Panthers are expected to make a quarterback change in Week 16 against the Colts. Rookie third round pick Will Grier is expected to get the start while Kyle Allen will head to the bench as Grier's backup. The move isn't official and hasn't been announced by the team yet, but the move has […]

Deep Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Adds (Week 9)

Two things I wanted to address in this intro and they both revolve around the same narrative. The Suns have been pretty spectacular given they lost on of their better players early in the season, but that suspension is over and is going to immediately impact fantasy scoring. While Deandre Ayton controls the paint like […]

NBA Weekly Streamers for Week 9 (Dec 16 - Dec 22)

Another week of fantasy NBA is ahead of us and even though we're still in the first half of our seasons, every matchup is important. Not just for bragging rights over our rival this week, but also because every win brings us a step closer to the playoffs and having a better position when it […]

Bismack Biyombo Snatches Season-High 17 Boards

Charlotte Hornets center Bismack Biyombo feasted on the glass during Sunday’s loss to the Indiana Pacers, compiling 17 rebounds amid a double-double that saw him finish with 11 points across 28 minutes. The effort marks his most boards in a single contest since Jan. 1, 2018, as he saw his time on the floor bumped […]

Cody Zeller Logs Double-Double In Return To Starting Five

Charlotte Hornets power forward/center Cody Zeller rejoined the starting lineup for Sunday’s defeat to the Indiana Pacers and notched his second consecutive double-double with 19 points and 12 rebounds to his credit. The 29 minutes of action that Zeller received were his most in over a month, as he figures to see an increased role […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (12/16/19): NBA DFS Lineups

A blockbuster slate filled with stars was set to deliver a massive showdown Monday. Then, Luka Doncic got hurt. Devin Booker missed his most recent contest. Andre Drummond and Blake Griffin both enter the day as questionable. In short, things have been thrown into disarray, but fortunately, owners have enough time to read and react […]
