Luka Doncic One Assist Shy Of A Triple-Double

Dwight Powell Potentially Out For The Season

Kawhi Leonard Leads The Charge With 36 Points On Tuesday

Los Angeles Clippers shooting guard/small forward Kawhi Leonard connected on 12 of 29 shooting en route to a team-high 36 points in the 110-107 victory over the Mavericks on Tuesday.

Landry Shamet Gets Hot Against The Mavericks

Los Angeles Clippers guard Landry Shamet had the hot hand on Tuesday when he recorded a season-high 18 points in the three-point win.

Deep Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Adds (Week 14)

The turnaround Marcus Smart has made not only on the court, but in the fantasy atmosphere has been one of the absorbing narratives of the season. There are very few owners willing to trade him, seeing how they most likely drafted him in a later rounds, and this is the first time over the past […]

Jaguars Plan To Hire Jay Gruden As Offensive Coordinator

The Jacksonville Jaguars plan to hire former Redskins head coach Jay Gruden as their next offensive coordinator, according to sources. A deal isn't officially done, but the Jaguars are very close to adding Gruden in the role. The biggest question for Jacksonville's offense heading into the 2020 season will be who is the starter under […]

Jaguars Expect To Retain Yannick Ngakoue

Jacksonville Jaguars general manager David Caldwell seems confident that the team will re-sign defensive end Yannick Ngakoue, who is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent in March. Jacksonville wants Ngakoue back, and Caldwell said something "should be done hopefully relatively easily." He'd become one of the top pass rushers available if he hits the […]

Braves Agree With Marcell Ozuna

The Atlanta Braves and outfielder Marcell Ozuna agreed to a one-year, $18 million deal on Tuesday, according to sources familiar with the deal. Ozuna will hit in the middle of Atlanta's order and help replace the power production of third baseman Josh Donaldson, who signed with the Twins. Ozuna, 29, slashed .241/.328/.472 with 29 home […]

Mitch Keller Suffered From Bad Luck In 2019

Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Mitch Keller, who had a 1-5 record and 7.13 ERA in just 48 innings over 11 starts in 2019, could be in line for a much better 2020 season if his luck improves. The former top prospect struck out 65 hitters and walked 16 of the 227 batters he faced and […]

Maurice Harkless is Probable for Tuesday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Maurice Harkless (back) is listed as probable for Tuesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. Head coach Doc Rivers think that Harkless will be fine for this game. He's expected to see increased playing time with Paul George (hamstring) listed as out. Landry Shamet and Harkless will be asked to soak up […]

Kristaps Porzingis Might Play Against Clippers

Dallas Mavericks center Kristaps Porzingis (knee) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. He's hopeful to play since he's been out since Wednesday. The Mavs continue to be careful with their star center, so we'll see if he actually suits up here. It's unclear whether or not he'd be limited […]

Paul George is Listed as Out for Tuesday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Paul George (hamstring) is listed as out for Tuesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. He is flying to Dallas to meet up with the team, so there's hope that he plays during the road trip. Landry Shamet and Maurice Harkless (back) will gain value without George available. Both players are worth […]

Marcus Morris Might Play Against Lakers

New York Knicks forward Marcus Morris (ankle) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. He suffered a sprained left ankle on Monday, so we'll see how he progresses. Fantasy owners are likely going to have to wait until after shootaround to see how Morris feels. Kevin Knox would likely join […]

Rudy Gay is Probable on Wednesday

San Antonio Spurs forward Rudy Gay (illness) is listed as probable for Wednesday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. He's missed each of the last three games due to an illness. Fantasy owners will have a better idea after shootaround, but it sounds like Gay is going to be good to go for Wednesday. Trey […]

Alex Len is Questionable for Wednesday

Atlanta Hawks center Alex Len (back) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. He's missed each of the last four games due to lower back pain. Fantasy owners will have a better idea after Wednesday's shootaround. Damian Jones and Bruno Fernando will see increased playing time if Len sits out […]

Trevor Ariza Could Start on Thursday

Portland Trail Blazers forward Trevor Ariza is likely going to start at small forward for Thursday's game against the Dallas Mavericks, according to head coach Terry Stotts. The trade with the Sacramento Kings was officially finalized on Tuesday, so Ariza is ready to go now. He should have increased fantasy value with Portland instead of […]

Kent Bazemore is Expected to Play on Wednesday

Sacramento Kings guard/forward Kent Bazemore is expected to be active for Wednesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. He was recently acquired by the Kings in a trade a few days ago, but it was officially finalized on Tuesday. The move to Sacramento is actually going to hurt Bazemore's fantasy value. Bogdan Bogdanovic will be his […]

Dennis Smith Jr. Will Be Re-Evaluated Soon

New York Knicks guard Dennis Smith Jr. (oblique) is getting closer to returning after missing the last 13 games. Head coach Mike Miller said that Smith will be re-evaluated within the next few days. It's been a rough season for Smith, so he's probably not much of a fantasy option when healthy. Elfrid Payton and […]

Aaron Holiday Could Sit Out on Wednesday

Indiana Pacers guard Aaron Holiday (thumb) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Phoenix Suns. He's dealing with right thumb soreness, but has played in every game this season. T.J. McConnell could see more minutes coming his way if Holiday sits out. However, McConnell won't have much fantasy appeal even if he gets […]

Jaylen Brown is Listed as Questionable for Wednesday

Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown (thumb) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He returned on Monday, but missed the two games prior due to a thumb sprain. However, it appears Brown suffered a right ankle sprain during the fourth quarter of Monday's contest. Fantasy owners will likely have to wait […]

Kemba Walker is Expected to Play Wednesday

Boston Celtics guard Kemba Walker (knee) is listed as probable for Wednesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He missed a game over the weekend due to a left knee issue, but returned to action on Monday. He scored 20 points in 30 minutes, so fantasy owners should expect Walker to be out there for Wednesday's […]

Collin Morikawa Set To Make Farmers Debut

Collin Morikawa is in the field for the upcoming Farmers Insurance Open. It will be Morikawa's first career start in the California event. The 22-year-old has been a star since turning professional last summer and already has one PGA Tour victory on his resume. He isn't a long hitter off the tee, which may put […]

Leighton Vander Esch Expected To Make Full Recovery

Dallas Cowboys vice president Stephen Jones said that linebacker Leighton Vander Esch's (neck) surgery "went well." "I feel really good about it. I feel really good about him making a full recovery and being ready to participate in everything," Jones said. The second-year linebacker should be good to go for the team's offseason workouts after […]

Aleksander Barkov Extends Point Streak To Five Games

Florida Panthers center Aleksander Barkov notched a goal and a power-play assist as his team captured a late 5-4 victory over the Minnesota Wild on Monday night. The Finnish native's pair of points extended his personal point streak to five games, a span in which he's posted eight points (three goals, five assists). Barkov, still […]

Dak Prescott Is Dallas' No. 1 Priority

Dallas Cowboys vice president Stephen Jones said that quarterback Dak Prescott is the team's "No. 1 priority as we go into the offseason." Despite the Cowboys missing the playoffs in 2019, Prescott wasn't the problem. He had his best season with 4,902 passing yards, 30 touchdowns and 11 interceptions in his fourth year in the […]
