William Byron A Must-Start At Phoenix

William Byron's young career in the Cup Series has not been a good one whenever the series visits the desert of Phoenix, Arizona. In just four career starts there, Byron has an average finish of 15.5 and only has one top-10. He also has never earned a driver rating higher than 84.1 at the track. […]

Kyle Larson Has Solid Value At Phoenix

Kyle Larson has enjoyed recent success at the Phoenix International Raceway. In his last three starts, Larson has been able to accrue an average finish of fourth. Throughout Larson's entire career at Phoenix when the driver has been able to keep the nose of the car clean, he has been successful at the speedway. Fantasy-wise, […]

Jimmie Johnson Has Value Potential In Arizona

Jimmie Johnson doesn't have the greatest recent history at the Phoenix International Raceway. If owners weren't watching NASCAR before 2014, many would assume that Johnson has always been mediocre at the speedway. After all, in that time Johnson has an average finish of 17.41, with only four top-10 finishes in his 12 starts. However, when […]

Brad Keselowski Overvalued At Phoenix

Brad Keselowski has struggled at Phoenix International Speedway in recent years. Since the start of the 2016 season, the driver only has two top-five finishes at the speedway and has an average finish of 13.75. Keselowski has the fifth-most expensive salary in DFS this week, a price that is more a result of the past […]

Aaron Gordon Returns To Double-Double Column In Victory

After posting his first career double-double versus the Minnesota Timberwolves last Friday, Orlando Magic small/power forward Aaron Gordon got himself back into the double-double column during the victory against Minnesota on Friday. He played a game-high 37 minutes, and despite remaining cold from long range (1-for-15 over his last four games), he finished with 15 […]

D'Angelo Russell Finishes With Season-Low Five Points In Loss

Minnesota Timberwolves point/shooting guard D'Angelo Russell was befuddled by the Orlando Magic on Friday, finishing 2-for-14 from the floor overall. Russell ultimately finished with a season-worst five points, as his five rebounds and three assists did little to bail out his stat line. Oddly enough, the outing served as the first time all season that […]

Malik Beasley Pours In 29 Points Across 28 Minutes

The Minnesota Timberwolves have seemingly unlocked shooting guard Malik Beasley’s terrific scoring ability. He set a new season high during Friday’s loss to the Orlando Magic, stacking up 29 points on 14-for-21 shooting despite playing only 28 minutes. Beasley has now exceeded the 20-point plateau in eight of the 12 games that he has appeared […]

Markelle Fultz Racks Up 24 Points In Efficient Performance

Orlando Magic point/shooting guard Markelle Fultz shot 11-for-14 from the field during Friday’s victory over the Minnesota Timberwolves en route to a 24-point performance. With both D.J. Augustin and Michael Carter-Williams playing well off the bench, Fultz (27 minutes) had to share his slice of the offensive pie, even as he added five rebounds and […]

Nikola Vucevic Compiles 28 Points During Double-Double

Orlando Magic center Nikola Vucevic continued his strong scoring stretch during Friday’s win over the Minnesota Timberwolves, finishing with 28 points to go along with 12 rebounds for his third consecutive double-double. With Evan Fournier (elbow) sidelined for the near future, Vucevic figures to see a slightly increased offensive role. Factor in that the Magic […]

Shaquille Harrison Explodes For Season-High 25 Points

Chicago Bulls point guard Shaquille Harrison had a breakout performance in Friday's 108-102 loss to the Pacers, amassing 25 points, four rebounds, four assists, two blocks, and three steals in a season-high 34 minutes of play. This was easily the best game of the season for the seldom-used guard as he filled the stat sheet, […]

Coby White Remains Hot With 26 Points On Friday

Chicago Bulls point guard Coby White continued to shine on the court in Friday's 108-102 loss to the Pacers, racking up 26 points, two rebounds, six assists, and one steal in a season-high 38 minutes of play. With the injury bug hitting Chicago hard, guys have been thrust into larger roles and White is one […]

JaKarr Sampson Ties Season-High 14 Points On Friday

Indiana Pacers forward Jakarr Sampson tied a season-high 14 points in Friday's 108-102 win over the Bulls. The 26-year-old also added five rebounds, three assists, and one steal in 17 minutes off the bench. The St. John's product is seldomly used on this Pacers team, and averages 3.9 points per game. Friday was basically a […]

Shane Bieber To Start On Opening Day

The Cleveland Indians officially named starting pitcher Shane Bieber as the starter for Opening Day on March 26 against the Tigers. Bieber struck out seven with no walks in a dominating four-inning performance against the A's on Friday and has allowed just two hits and a walk in 7 2/3 innings in the Cactus League. […]

Indiana Pacers forward Domantas Sabonis supplied 24 points, 12 rebounds, three assists, and one steal through 36 minutes in the 108-102 win over the Bulls on Friday. The 23-year-old continued a stellar stretch of play, notching an incredible eighth straight double-double. In fact, the Gonzaga product is averaging a double-double this season with 18.2 points […]

Seahawks Interested In Alex Collins

The Seattle Seahawks are interested in free-agent running back Alex Collins, according to sources. Collins played for the Seahawks in his rookie season in 2016 and worked out for them late last season when they were in need of healthy bodies. He's a street free agent, so he can sign before March 18. Collins sat […]

Myles Turner Gets Four Blocks

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner put up a fine performance in the 108-102 win over the Bulls on Friday, accumulating 15 points, eight rebounds, one assist, and four blocks in 35 minutes. The 23-year-old has been spectacular the past six games, getting two double-doubles, scoring in double digits four times, and blocking an astounding 24 […]

Marcus Johnson Will Hit Open Market

The Indianapolis Colts won't tender impending restricted free-agent wide receiver Marcus Johnson, meaning he'll hit the open market. Johnson made six starts last season and caught three passes for 105 yards and a touchdown in a game against the Buccaneers, so he should have interest on the open market. In all, the 25-year-old caught 17 […]

Saints To Use First-Round Tender On Taysom Hill

The New Orleans Saints are planning to place a first-round tender on impending restricted free-agent quarterback Taysom Hill, according to a source. The Saints will have a chance to match an offer sheet that he could receive from another team. If he departs, they'd receive a first-round pick. It's looking increasingly likely that Hill will […]

Mitch Haniger's Rehab Moving Slowly

Seattle Mariners outfielder Mitch Haniger's (back) rehab process continues to move along slowly, as he's limited to walking for about another week before he can move to the next phase of his rehab. Haniger had microdiscectomy three weeks ago for a herniated disc, and he also had surgery in February to fix a torn adductor […]

Steven Adams Seals Double-Double

Oklahoma City Thunder center Steven Adams finished Friday's 126-103 win over the Knicks with 12 points, 11 rebounds, one assist, and two blocks in 24 minutes of play. The big man is nearly averaging a double-double this season with 11 points and 9.4 rebounds per game. Unfortunately, he hasn't been a major factor with guys […]

Tom Murphy, Austin Nola To Share Time Behind Plate

Seattle Mariners catcher Tom Murphy should see more of the playing time behind the plate this year, but manager Scott Servais said that backup Austin Nola will also see plenty of time. Nola mostly played first base in 2019, but he'll strictly work at catcher in 2020. "Everybody says, 'Oh, Murphy is the starting catcher.’ […]

Yusei Kikuchi In A Better Place This Year

Seattle Mariners starting pitcher Yusei Kikuchi, who struggled in his rookie season in 2019, tossed three scoreless innings in his spring start on Thursday and had five strikeouts. Kikuchi got his fastball up to 96 mph in the outing. "Compared to last year, I’m already in such a better spot," Kikuchi said through interpreter Kevin […]

Hamidou Diallo Ties Season-High Point Total On Friday

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Hamidou Diallo contributed 12 points, four rebounds, and one block in 26 minutes of play during the 126-103 win over the Knicks on Friday. The 2018 pick averages 6.1 points a game as a reserve on this surprising team, making Friday's point total well above his season average. Nevertheless, this was […]

Mitch Moreland To DH Saturday

Boston Red Sox first baseman Mitch Moreland (hamstring) is expected to serve as the designated hitter in the Grapefruit League game on Saturday. Moreland should be just fine for Opening Day. The left-handed hitter should start most days at first base against right-handers, and he can give fantasy owners some pop in deep mixed and […]

Elfrid Payton Paces Team With 18 Points

New York Knicks guard Elfrid Payton supplied 18 points, nine rebounds, and eight assists in 30 minutes during the 126-103 loss to the Thunder on Friday. The 26-year-old had a near triple-double, and has been fairly productive since the beginning of February. He has scored in double digits in eight of the last 11 games, […]

Griffin Canning Shut Down For A Month

Los Angeles Angels starting pitcher Griffin Canning (elbow) will be shut down for around a month as he recovers from soreness in his right elbow. Canning will receive an injection of biological substances in an effort to heal his elbow inflammation. As a result, he'll open the regular season on the injured list. Patrick Sandoval […]

Bobby Portis Provides 14 Points Off Bench

New York Knicks forward Bobby Portis came off the bench in Friday's 126-103 loss to the Thunder and chipped in 14 points, seven rebounds, one block, and one steal in 27 minutes. The former Bull has put together a nice little stretch of scoring in double digits in seven of the last eight games. Despite […]
