Alex Fischbein 2 years agoDeSean Jackson Should Be Far From Any Fantasy Consideration
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver DeSean Jackson has had one game with more than 34 yards since arriving in Baltimore back in Week 9. The 36-year-old has only played two of his five games with Lamar Jackson at quarterback which has severely limited his upside. On top of that, the run-heavy offense will play in some […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoDemarcus Robinson Barely Hanging On To Fantasy Relevance
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Demarcus Robinson only has one reason to be in fantasy lineups moving forward, and that is because he's the de facto No. 1 wide receiver and will put up a handful of points based on receptions alone. Over the last five games, he's averaged 5.6 catches on 6.6 targets per game. […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoMark Andrews Draws A Good Matchup In Week 16
Baltimore Ravens tight end Mark Andrews has been lackluster, to say the least, since Week 6 when he went off for 20.1 fantasy points in half-point PPR leagues. Since then, his best week was 9.3 points against the Panthers, when he hauled in six catches for 63 yards, and he hasn't scored a touchdown throughout […]

Baltimore Ravens kicker Justin Tucker had a rough go of it in Week 15 as he went 1-for-3 in field goals for the first time in a couple of seasons. The 33-year-old is still an elite option at kicker and is currently ranked in the top six at his position in terms of fantasy points […]

Alex Fischbein 2 years agoJohn Wall Questionable To Play On Friday Against 76ers
Los Angeles Clippers guard John Wall (ankle) has been given the questionable tag for their Friday night contest against the Philadelphia 76ers.

Alex Fischbein 2 years agoJordan Clarkson Posts Strong Outing In Win Over Wizards
Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson provided both the second-highest scoring and rebounding marks on the team during their home win on Thursday night.

Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal continued his recent hot streak since returning from injury during the team's loss to the Utah Jazz on Thursday night. He finished the game with 30 points, five rebounds, and five assists on a very efficient 13-for-20 from the floor. Lately, the only issue with Beal's game has been his […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoJeremy Sochan Scores Career-High 23 Points
San Antonio Spurs forward Jeremy Sochan had the best game of his young career on Thursday night despite the loss to the New Orleans Pelicans. The rookie posted 23 points, nine rebounds, six assists, and one steal while shooting 7-for-14 from the floor and 2-for-4 from deep. He even added 7-for-10 from the line which […]

Alex Fischbein 2 years agoRavens Defense A Top Option Against Falcons In Week 16
The Baltimore Ravens defense/special teams will go against an already struggling Falcons team that is now forced to start their rookie quarterback as Marcus Mariota will be sidelined. If there's one thing that the Ravens do well, it's play defense against a rookie quarterback and a team in disarray. Last week, Desmond Ridder was held […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoGus Edwards Looks To Increase His Snap Share Again
Baltimore Ravens running back Gus Edwards saw a sharp decline in his snap percentage with the recent play of fellow backfield mate J.K. Dobbins. Before Dobbins returned, Edwards was seeing anywhere between 11 and 16 carries. In Week 14 against the Steelers, he saw 13 even with Dobbins as the lead back. Last week, however, […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoJ.K. Dobbins On The Rise To RB2 In Week 16
Baltimore Ravens running back J.K. Dobbins has posted back-to-back 100-yard games for the first time in his career. He averaged 8.0 and 9.6 yards per carry in each of those games respectively.

Alex Fischbein 2 years agoJelani Woods Not Worth The Risk Against Chargers
Indianapolis Colts tight end Jelani Woods has been third in line at his position for most of this season. Mo Alie-Cox and Kylen Granson have seen higher snap percentages more often than not. Woods has shown some flashes and collected two double-digit fantasy outings, but he isn't trustworthy in a struggling offense as the third […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoZach Wilson Benched In Favor Of Chris Streveler
New York Jets quarterback Zach Wilson was benched near the end of the third quarter on Thursday night against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Wilson looked flat throughout the entire time that he was on the field and made some questionable decisions like throwing into triple coverage. Jets fans let the boos rain down and then Chris […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoAlec Pierce A Desperation Option In Week 16
Indianapolis Colts wide receiver Alec Pierce isn't a recommended option at either wide receiver or the flex. Last week, he failed to catch any of his four targets while the team blew a 33-point lead. Pierce is a rookie pass-catcher on a team that struggles to pass the ball, and he's playing against a team […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoColts Defense A Risky Option In Week 16
The Indianapolis Colts defense/special teams were not able to sustain a 33-point lead against the Minnesota Vikings last week. After getting their spirit broken in half, now they have to face a talented offense in the Los Angeles Chargers. Add in the fact that the Colts are hanging on to playoff hopes by a thread, […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoKristaps Porzingis Questionable Again On Thursday Night
Washington Wizards center Kristaps Porzingis (illness) was a late addition to the injury report for the team's last game and now he's questionable for the second game in a row.

Alex Fischbein 2 years agoJakob Poeltl Is Available Against Pelicans On Thursday
San Antonio Spurs center Jakob Poeltl (knee) will be available to start for the team's Thursday night contest against the New Orleans Pelicans. The 27-year-old returned a couple of games ago from a knee injury and he's still been gracing the injury report in case he needs another rest day. He's been playing some limited […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoKeldon Johnson Sidelined Again With Hamstring Issue
San Antonio Spurs forward Keldon Johnson (hamstring) will be out again on Thursday night due to right hamstring tightness. The young power forward will be forced to miss his fourth game of the season as the team is likely just being cautious with him.

Alex Fischbein 2 years agoLarry Nance Jr. Tagged As Questionable Against Spurs
New Orleans Pelicans forward Larry Nance Jr. (Achilles) was officially given the questionable tag with a sore right achilles. The 29-year-old could have a big role if he is able to get on the court now that Zion Williamson has been ruled out. Right now, fantasy managers will have to stay tuned to hear about […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoZion Williamson Sidelined On Thursday Night
New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (health and safety protocols) will have to miss the team's Thursday night contest against the San Antonio Spurs. Williamson entered the health and safety protocols recently and will have to miss at least one game. The team has been off since Saturday so it seems as though he was […]
Alex Fischbein 2 years agoJames Wiseman Has Career Night Against Nets
Golden State Warriors center James Wiseman received close to 30 minutes of playing time for the first time since April of the 2020-21 season and he didn't disappoint.

Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball took eight games to register his first triple-double of the season. Technically it was game number 32 for the team, but only his eighth so far this year.

Alex Fischbein 2 years agoJulius Randle Has A Double-Double In Loss To Raptors
New York Knicks forward Julius Randle turned in a strong performance despite taking the loss to the struggling Toronto Raptors on Wednesday night. The former seventh-overall pick registered 30 points, 13 rebounds, four assists, and two turnovers while shooting 13-for-17 from the floor.
