Caris LeVert is Questionable on Saturday

Brooklyn Nets guard Caris Levert (hand) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Miami Heat. He is dealing with a right hand contusion, but he's been on fire lately, so losing him would really hurt the Nets rotation. Garrett Temple may slide into the starting five, but he wouldn't be worth using in […]

Antonio Senzatela Sharp In Spring Stint

Colorado Rockies pitcher Antonio Senzatela looked good on Friday night as he struck out four in three innings of work. Most impressive were his displays with his newly developed curveball, a pitch he's been trying to improve for years. After bursting onto the scene in 2017 with some promising numbers, the young righty has struggled […]

Luka Doncic is Questionable Versus Minnesota

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (thumb) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Doncic was battling through the left thumb issue on Friday, so the Mavs might take the cautious approach and rest him here. Seth Curry, Delon Wright, and J.J. Barea would see increased roles if Doncic is unable to […]

Dom Nunez Blasts A Home Run On Friday Night

Colorado Rockies catcher prospect Dom Nunez hit a rocket out to right in Friday night action in Scottsdale, and there is no question that he can put a charge into a ball. He showed that during a brief stint in the majors last year when he knocked five extra-base hits in just 39 at-bats. Unfortunately, […]

Cameron Johnson is Questionable for Saturday

Phoenix Suns forward Cameron Johnson (back, hip) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Golden State Warriors. He fell on the court during Friday's game and suffered a left contusion along with a lower back issue. The X-rays came back negative, so it sounds like Johnson will be fine for this one. However, […]

Two Goals From Jason Zucker Not Enough Against Ducks

Pittsburgh Penguins forward Jason Zucker provided all of Pittsburgh's offensive production Friday night, scoring the team's only two goals in a loss to the Ducks. The first of Zucker's two goals came on the power play, giving him his second power-play goal in his ninth game with Pittsburgh. Now with seven total points with Pittsburgh […]

Deandre Ayton Might Not Play on Saturday

Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton (hip) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Golden State Warriors. Ayton has been reliable when he's on the court, but he's been hit with injuries and a 25-game suspension this season. Aron Baynes (rib) would likely get the start and have some streaming appeal if Ayton is […]

Trevor Story Hints At Stealing More In 2020

Colorado Rockies shortstop Trevor Story already has a few records in his pocket as he's the first shortstop in major league history to hit 20 or more homers in his first four seasons in the big leagues, but it sounds like he'll be looking to swipe more bags this season. Story mentioned to Thomas Harding […]

Wendell Carter Jr. is Upgraded to Probable

Chicago Bulls center Wendell Carter Jr. (ankle) is listed as probable for Saturday's game against the New York Knicks. He was listed as questionable on Friday's injury report, but it appears Carter is feeling good enough to play here. He is expected to be on a minutes limit while he works his way back to […]

Fred Vanvleet Could Sit Out Against Nuggets

Toronto Raptors guard Fred Vanvleet (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He suffered a left shoulder injury on Tuesday and wasn't able to suit up for Friday's game. Norman Powell returned on Friday, so he'll likely get another start if Vanvleet is unable to play. Terence Davis and Patrick […]

Danton Heinen Pockets First Goal With New Team

Anaheim Ducks forward Danton Heinen picked up his second point in as many games since being traded from Boston, kicking off the scoring Friday night with a goal late in the first period against the Penguins.

Serge Ibaka Might Sit Versus Nuggets

Toronto Raptors forward Serge Ibaka (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Denver Nuggets. Ibaka is dealing with right knee soreness and wasn't able to play in Friday's contest. Rondae Hollis-Jefferson joined the first unit, but wasn't able to do much damage during his 28 minutes. Chris Boucher saw 16 minutes off […]

Alex Gordon Likely To See Playing Time Reduction

Kansas City Royals outfielder Alex Gordon has returned to the team for another year, but management is already discussing how to handle his workload this year. Gordon got off to a hot start last year, but he faded dramatically as the season wore on. The 36-year-old told reporters that he doesn't think it was due […]

Stephen Curry Won't Return on Sunday

Golden State Warriors guard Stephen Curry (hand) was expected to return for Sunday's contest, but it appears the team is going to delay his return. Head coach Steve Kerr has ruled out Curry for their upcoming game versus the Denver Nuggets on Tuesday. The Warriors announced that Curry needs more time to practice before returning […]

Trevor Rosenthal Returns To Spring Action

Kansas City Royals relief pitcher Trevor Rosenthal (calf) returned to action on Friday after taking a couple extra days of rest due to some calf tightness. Rosenthal has been brilliant so far for Kansas City, racking up four strikeouts and zero walks in two scoreless innings this spring. Five years removed from his two seasons […]

Evan White Dealing With Groin Injury

Seattle Mariners first baseman Evan White (groin) will be held out of exhibition play for a few more games.

Pair of Third Period Goals From Reilly Smith Seals Win for Vegas

Vegas Golden Knights forward Reilly Smith scored two goals on two shots in Friday night's win over Buffalo, including the eventual game-winner.

Ian Kennedy Gives Up Homer In First Appearance

Kansas City Royals closer Ian Kennedy was hit hard in his first appearance of the spring, surrendering two runs in his short stint. Kennedy was a surprise reclamation project last season when he converted from being one of the worst starters in the league to being a solid a closer. In his first full season […]

Salvador Perez Catches First Game Without Issue

Kansas City Royals catcher Salvador Perez (elbow) finally got his chance to get back behind home plate, catching his first game since September of 2018 on Friday.

Robin Lehner Earns Win over Sabres in Vegas Debut

Vegas Golden Knights goaltender Robin Lehner allowed two goals on 34 shots Friday night as the Golden Knights defeated the Sabres 4-2.

Kevin Harvick Reliable In California

Kevin Harvick is currently the highest-priced driver in DFS for good reason. The 44-year-old comes into Fontana boasting the second-highest fantasy output in the last 10 races at the track, and fourth-highest production in the previous 10 races held at either California or Michigan International. Harvick has accumulated those stats, all while having not won […]

Bradley Beal Continues Scoring Tear

Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal has been lighting up the NBA as of late. In his last 10 outings, he is averaging 36.4 points per game, and his performance against the Jazz on Friday was similarly spectacular. In a team-high 41 minutes of play, Beal scored 42 points on 17-for-33 shooting from the field and […]

Mike Fiers Rocked In Spring Start

Oakland Athletics starting pitcher Mike Fiers was roughed up in his second Spring Training start Friday, allowing five earned runs in two innings pitched.

Texans Discussing Extension For Laremy Tunsil

The Houston Texans have met with left tackle Laremy Tunsil's representation to discuss a contract extension that could make him the highest-paid offensive lineman in the NFL.

The Redskins are among the teams expected to be involved. Cowboys cornerback Byron Jones and Bradberry are the top two cornerbacks available this offseason and should reset the cornerback […]

Randy Arozarena Making Case For Opening Day Roster

While Tampa Bay Rays outfielder Randy Arozarena is unlikely to unseat Manuel Margot for a starting spot in the outfield on Opening Day, he is opening eyes with his early spring performance in the Grapefruit League. Arozarena is barreling baseballs frequently at the plate and is showing heads-up baserunning. The team's No. 17 prospect is […]

Mike Leake May Not Be Ready For Opening Day

Arizona Diamondbacks starting pitcher Mike Leake (wrist) might not be ready for the start of the regular season, according to manager Torey Lovullo. Leake has been recovering from a fractured left wrist and has been throwing regular bullpen sessions, but he hasn't been cleared to pitch in a game. Lovullo likes his starters to reach […]
