What's up, RotoBallers! We're getting into the thick of the season with injury reports galore and visions of the Christmas day slate and All-Star break. The Drop List returns for another week, and it might not be kind to some of your rosters. Each week, I'll take a look at a handful of NBA players […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoMark Andrews Still A Must-Start In Week 14
Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews may not be having the same type of outstanding year he had last season, but he's still one of the most reliable options at tight end. Since he came back from injury in Week 11, he's rattled off three weeks in the top 11 at his position. His yardage […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoRavens Defense A Must-Start Against Steelers
The Baltimore Ravens defense/special teams has only posted a game with five or fewer fantasy points four times this season. In Week 14, they take on Kenny Pickett and the Pittsburgh Steelers that are ranked 24th in terms of fantasy points given up to opposing defenses. Pickett has protected the ball a little more lately, […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoJustin Tucker A Must-Start Again In Week 14
Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker remains a must-start every single time he takes the field. There hasn't been a single game this season that he's failed to at least make one field goal. On top of that, he's only missed three out of his 28 attempts and one of those was a 67-yard desperation kick […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoDevin Duvernay A Risky Play Versus Pittsburgh
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Devin Duvernay played in 94% of the offensive snaps last week and still finished as the WR47. In Week 14, with a backup quarterback in the mix, Duvernay will be hard to trust. He's been a boom-or-bust type of option all year but hasn't entered the top 25 since Week 8. […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoGus Edwards A Flex Option In Week 14
Baltimore Ravens running back Gus Edwards had a rough go of it against the Denver Broncos in Week 13, but he still looks to be a flex option against the Pittsburgh Steelers. He was out carried by his backfield mate Kenyan Drake last week, and he only was able to put up a weak 12 […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoKenyan Drake Not A Reliable Start In Week 14
Baltimore Ravens running back Kenyan Drake has quickly faded away into fantasy obscurity ever since Gus Edwards returned. While he did gain more yardage than Edwards in Week 13, he'll likely see his role diminish as both Edwards and J.K. Dobbins get healthier. On top of that, with Tyler Huntley in the fold, there will […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoLeBron James Probable To Play On Friday
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) is likely to give it a go against the Philadelphia 76ers on Friday night. He's been experiencing some ankle soreness, but he's also been on the injury report more than he hasn't so far this season. Fantasy managers will just need to keep tabs on the injury reports […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoAnthony Davis Likely To Suit Up Against 76ers
Los Angeles Lakers forward Anthony Davis (illness) was forced to leave the team's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers due to flu-like symptoms. After sitting out the second half of a back-to-back and getting a day off in between, he's listed as probable to play again on Friday night. He'll be welcomed back with open arms […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoBen Simmons Returning To The Court On Friday
Brooklyn Nets forward Ben Simmons is no longer listed on the injury report ahead of the contest against the Atlanta Hawks on Friday night.

Alex Fischbein 2 years agoYuta Watanabe Still Sidelined Against Hawks
Brooklyn Nets forward Yuta Watanabe (hamstring) will be sidelined for yet another game as he's still nursing a strained right hamstring. This will be his tenth consecutive game watching from the bench. His production off of the bench has been missed, but the team has found ways to win as they've gone 6-3 so far […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoDe'Andre Hunter Questionable To Make Return On Friday
Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (hip) has been given the questionable tag on Friday morning for the contest against the Brooklyn Nets. The 25-year-old has missed the last three games with the same hip flexor strain. In that time, the team lost two of their three games and lost Dejounte Murray in the process. If […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoBradley Beal Still Sidelined, Awaiting Re-Evaluation
Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal (hamstring) exited the team's game against the Los Angeles Lakers on December 4th with a hamstring strain and has been waiting to be re-evaluated since then. At the time, Shams Charania reported that the team would wait a week and evaluate him then. With that being said, he's going to […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoWill Barton Questionable Against Pacers On Friday
Washington Wizards guard Will Barton (foot) is in doubt for Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers as he deals with left foot soreness. The injury itself doesn't seem too serious, but plenty of teams seem to err on the cautious side when playing against this rebuilding Pacers team. If the 31-year-old can't play, this would […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoMyles Turner Uncertain For Friday's Game
Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner (hamstring) has been tagged as questionable. He's dealing with right hamstring soreness at the moment. He was able to play the full game on Wednesday against the Minnesota Timberwolves so it seems to be some lingering pain that might be going on. If he's unable to play, Jalen Smith will […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoIsaiah Jackson Questionable With Knee Soreness
Indiana Pacers forward Isaiah Jackson (knee) officially received the questionable tag on the injury report due to right knee soreness. He's only missed one game so far this season, so he's been able to play through any bumps and bruises that he's experienced so far. He hasn't exactly taken the jump that a lot of […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoLeonard Fournette Dealing With Foot Injury
Tampa Bay Buccaneers running back Leonard Fournette (foot) was added to the Week 14 injury report while putting in a limited practice on Thursday. It's a new injury for Fournette and is something to keep an eye on. In Week 13, the 27-year-old ended up with one more touch than backfield mate Rachaad White. He […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoJosh Jacobs Returns To Game On Thursday Night
Updating a previous report, Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs (hand) left the Thursday night game against the Los Angeles Rams for part of the third quarter to deal with a hand injury.

Las Vegas Raiders running back Josh Jacobs (hand) left Thursday night's game against the Los Angeles Rams mid-way through the third quarter with an apparent hand injury. The team officially ruled that he was questionable to return to the game. He went to the locker room to get X-rays. On the broadcast, he seemed to […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoRyan Tannehill Practices In Full On Thursday
Tennessee Titans quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle) seems to be proven correct when he said that both of his ankles are alright on Wednesday. He was upgraded from a limited practice on Wednesday to a full participant on Thursday. Unless he gets a downgrade on Friday, then he should be good to go for Week 14's […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoTua Tagovailoa Limited In Practice
Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (ankle) was a limited participant in practice on Thursday. So far, this week is going as expected since the team was counting on him to be limited early on. He suffered an ankle injury against the San Francisco 49ers in Week 13, but it shouldn't be one that keeps him […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoPascal Siakam Leads Raptors To Win On Wednesday
Toronto Raptors forward Pascal Siakam cashed in a big double-double during the team's 126-113 win over the Los Angeles Lakers on Wednesday.

He was tied with Fred VanVleet for the team-high in […]

The 32-year-old posted 25 points, 11 rebounds, three assists, two steals, and two blocks while shooting 62.5% on 16 attempts and 3-for-5 from beyond the arc. His numbers may be down from some of his best years in Orlando, […]

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson posted a strong double-double in the team's 104-98 win over the Detroit Pistons on Wednesday.

He's looked more and more […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoJrue Holiday Drops 31 Points Against Sacramento
Milwaukee Bucks guard Jrue Holiday had a big night against the Sacramento Kings on Wednesday. The 13-year veteran poured in 31 points on 12-for-23 shooting and 2-for-4 from beyond the arc. He also added five rebounds and six assists, with five points coming from free throws. He was also second on the team in plus/minus […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoDomantas Sabonis Puts Up Strong Stat Line Against Bucks
Sacramento Kings forward Domantas Sabonis was just three assists shy of his 20th career triple-double. This game could have also been his second triple-double in a row, but the strong stat line didn't matter in the end since the team still suffered a 13-point loss. The former lottery pick still registered 23 points, 12 rebounds, […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoJa Morant Collects Second Triple-Double This Season
Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant continues his stellar play as he put up his second triple-double of the season during a blowout win over the Oklahoma City Thunder.

Houston Rockets center Bruno Fernando (illness) has been tagged as questionable ahead of the team's Thursday night contest against the San Antonio Spurs.

Alex Fischbein 2 years agoJosh Christopher Tagged As Questionable Against Spurs
Houston Rockets guard Josh Christopher (foot) is uncertain to play against the San Antonio Spurs on Thursday night. He didn't make an appearance in the team's last win over the Philadelphia 76ers and has had an extended break since then. With the two days off, the fact that he's still questionable is slightly concerning. Even […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoNikola Jovic Available To Play Against Clippers
Miami Heat forward Nikola Jovic (foot) will officially be able to play against the Los Angeles Clippers on Thursday. He was previously listed as probable so now the available tag wasn't too big of a surprise. The rookie returned from his plantar fasciitis on Tuesday, but only played nine minutes. In the lopsided loss, he […]
