Rashod Bateman Not On The Fantasy Radar In Week 14
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Rashod Bateman shed any injury designation after popping up on the injury report this week due to an illness. That doesn't automatically make him a starting option in any fantasy format, however. Bateman hasn't scored double-digit fantasy points in any game this season in any format. He has scored one touchdown […]

Baltimore Ravens running back Keaton Mitchell has seen his workload steadily rise since Week 9, but he has yet to break double-digit carries. In that span, he registered three double-digit fantasy point performances, but those outings have been big-play dependent. The Rams are one of the best at defending explosive runs and they're the seventh-toughest […]

Baltimore Ravens tight end Isaiah Likely registered TE1 type of metrics in Week 12 as the starter in target share and yards per route run. He has the talent to put up big performances as the starting tight end, but he has delivered a mixed bag of results so far. The good thing is that […]
Alex Fischbein 1 year agoOdell Beckham Jr. Has Flex Potential Against Rams
Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. has seen 12 targets over the last two games and turned that into a four-catch, 116-yard performance against the Bengals and a three-catch, 34-yard performance against the Chargers. Beckham's production has fluctuated big time throughout the year, but the offense has leaned on him more ever since tight […]

Baltimore Ravens wide receiver Zay Flowers will remain the No. 1 pass-catching option with tight end Mark Andrews (ankle) sidelined. He's seen a 31.5% target share without Andrews but hasn't exactly seen much success in turning targets into yards and touchdowns throughout most of the season. The Rams currently rank 10th against opposing wide receiver […]

Baltimore Ravens running back Gus Edwards has become a touchdown-dependent fantasy player now that Keaton Mitchell has seen more and more action in the backfield. In their last game against the Chargers in Week 12, Edwards only played 27% of the snaps which amounted to eight carries for 26 yards and one catch for 11 […]
Alex Fischbein 1 year agoChris Paul Questionable To Play On Friday
Golden State Warriors guard Chris Paul (illness) has popped back up on the injury report with an illness and is uncertain to play on Friday against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The veteran point guard returned from a two-game absence on Wednesday and didn't give much of a fantasy output. If he's able to suit up, […]
Alex Fischbein 1 year agoKelly Olynyk Expected To Return On Friday
Utah Jazz center/forward Kelly Olynyk (shoulder) has missed the last two games with a right shoulder strain but he is now listed as probable on Friday night. Getting Olynyk back in the lineup is great timing for the Jazz as Lauri Markkanen (hamstring) will be forced to miss yet another game. Olynyk probably won't enter […]

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (hamstring) has been ruled out for the team's game on Friday against the Los Angeles Clippers. The star forward has missed the last six games and will miss at least seven while he deals with this left hamstring strain. In his place, Simone Fontecchio will remain in the starting five […]
Alex Fischbein 1 year agoJerami Grant Remains In Concussion Protocol On Friday
Portland Trail Blazers forward Jerami Grant (concussion) still hasn't cleared the league's concussion protocol, so he will miss his second consecutive game on Friday. In the team's last matchup, Anfernee Simons returned to the starting lineup and Deandre Ayton (knee) missed the game as well, so Duop Reath and Toumani Camara received the two vacant […]
Alex Fischbein 1 year agoGrant Williams Will Be Sidelined On Friday
Dallas Mavericks forward Grant Williams (knee) will watch from the sidelines on Friday as the team takes on the Portland Trail Blazers. Williams is dealing with some knee soreness right now and it seems like the Mavericks are being cautious and giving him some extra rest against a weaker opponent after they beat Utah by […]
Alex Fischbein 1 year agoJosh Green Ruled Out On Friday
Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Josh Green (elbow) has been ruled out on Friday against the Portland Trail Blazers while he deals with a right elbow sprain. He has been forced to miss the last two games as well and there hasn't been any word on his return just yet. Despite seeing around the same minutes he […]
Alex Fischbein 1 year agoChris Duarte Considered Questionable Against Suns
Sacramento Kings guard/forward Chris Duarte (knee) has received a questionable tag for Friday's contest against the Phoenix Suns. The 26-year-old has missed the last two games due to left knee soreness and he possibly could miss a third. Since this game was added as a consolation from the in-season tournament, the start time is 11:00 […]
Alex Fischbein 1 year agoTorrey Craig Is Probable Against Spurs
Chicago Bulls forward Torrey Craig (knee) is dealing with some left knee soreness but he's still considered probable to go up against the San Antonio Spurs on Friday night. The 32-year-old hasn't seen the floor as much as he did last season but currently averages 5.4 points, 4.9 rebounds, and 1.2 assists per game. Craig […]
Alex Fischbein 1 year agoAlex Caruso Expected To Play On Friday
Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (toe) has been officially listed as probable for the team's Friday night game against the San Antonio Spurs. He's been dealing with the toe issue for a couple of weeks now and has only missed a couple of games from it so far. Since he's in line to play, he'll […]
Alex Fischbein 1 year agoJake LaRavia Considered Doubtful Against Timberwolves
Memphis Grizzlies forward Jake LaRavia (eye) underwent a procedure on his left eye and hasn't played since November 1. He seems to be creeping towards getting back on the court though as he was officially listed as doubtful for Friday's contest against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Getting someone back for this thin frontcourt would be huge […]
Alex Fischbein 1 year agoJordan McLaughlin Has A Chance To Return On Friday
Minnesota Timberwolves guard Jordan McLaughlin (knee) has been dealing with a right MCL sprain and hasn't played since November 6. He's officially listed as questionable for the team's game against the Memphis Grizzlies on Friday, so it seems he's trending in the right direction. Right now, the Timberwolves have the best record in the league, […]
Alex Fischbein 1 year agoHaywood Highsmith Set To Miss Another Game
Miami Heat forward Haywood Highsmith (back) will have to miss his second game in a row due to a lower back contusion. He will watch Friday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers from the sidelines while both Duncan Robinson (groin) and Caleb Martin (shoulder) seem slated to be in the lineup. Both of them along with […]
Alex Fischbein 1 year agoDuncan Robinson Listed As Probable On Friday
Miami Heat forward Duncan Robinson (groin) is expected to play on Friday as he was listed as probable against the Cleveland Cavaliers. It seems as though the left groin strain that he's dealing with isn't limiting him too much as he's been able to play in the team's last four games. He also has been […]
Alex Fischbein 1 year agoEvan Mobley Uncertain To Play Against Heat
Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Evan Mobley (knee) is currently dealing with some left knee soreness and has been listed as questionable for the Friday night contest against the Miami Heat. Mobley has been a key piece of the team's "big three" and has shown even more consistency this season as he averages a double-double so far. […]
Alex Fischbein 1 year agoCaris LeVert Won't Suit Up Against Heat
Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Caris LeVert (knee) has been ruled out of his third consecutive game due to left knee injury management. Since he's listed as injury management, it doesn't seem as though he should miss that much more time. There hasn't been any clear word on when he's expected to return though. As he watches […]
Alex Fischbein 1 year agoLonnie Walker IV Set To Miss Friday's Game
Brooklyn Nets guard Lonnie Walker IV (hamstring) will remain sidelined on Friday as he nurses a left hamstring strain. The 24-year-old has been playing some important minutes off of the bench so far this season, but the Nets draw an easier matchup against a weak Washington Wizards team on Friday. In Walker's absence, Dennis Smith […]
Alex Fischbein 1 year agoLandry Shamet Ruled Out Again On Friday
Washington Wizards guard Landry Shamet (rib) will miss his second consecutive game on Friday with a right rib sprain. He doesn't have a firm timetable for his return right now, so Shamet could end up missing some more action after this game as well. While he's out, Bilal Coulibaly, Corey Kispert, and Jared Butler will […]
Alex Fischbein 1 year agoDaniel Gafford Tagged As Questionable On Friday
Washington Wizards center Daniel Gafford (ankle) has been listed as questionable for the Friday night contest against the Brooklyn Nets. The big man was able to play a full game against the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday before fouling out, and he was listed as questionable before that game as well. Fantasy managers will want to […]

Here we are, in the thick of the in-season tournament playoffs and crazy schedules that put every single game on two different days of the week. Welcome back to the dynasty corner, RotoBallers! The place where we get to look at players in fantasy basketball the same way that general managers look at prospects and […]
Alex Fischbein 1 year agoDe'Anthony Melton Will Play On Wednesday
Philadelphia 76ers guard De'Anthony Melton (illness) was originally listed as probable so the fact he was upgraded to active doesn't come as a huge surprise. He'll be back in the starting five along with a fully healthy Sixers squad for the first time since Kelly Oubre Jr. (ribs) first got injured. Melton's fantasy value will […]
Alex Fischbein 1 year agoDean Wade Will Return Wednesday In Limited Capacity
Cleveland Cavaliers forward Dean Wade (ankle) has missed the last six consecutive games but has been upgraded from questionable to active on Wednesday. He will take the floor against the Orlando Magic but he's going to come off of the bench in a limited capacity for his first game back. Wade likely won't be a […]
Alex Fischbein 1 year agoLandry Shamet Will Not Suit Up Against 76ers
Washington Wizards guard Landry Shamet (rib) has been downgraded to out against the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday. The sharpshooter is dealing with a right rib sprain that ultimately gave him too much pain to play through. While he's on the sidelines, Jordan Poole (ankle) and Johnny Davis (calf) will both see more minutes if they […]
Alex Fischbein 1 year agoAnthony Edwards Has Been Upgraded To Active On Wednesday
Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Anthony Edwards (hip) will play on Wednesday against the San Antonio Spurs and head coach Chris Finch said that he won't be restricted either. Edwards has been the leader of the team's offense as the Timberwolves currently sit at the top of the Western Conference. He's missed the last two games with […]
Alex Fischbein 1 year agoGrant Williams Receives Questionable Tag Against Jazz
Dallas Mavericks forward Grant Williams (knee) has been listed as questionable for their Wednesday night game against the Utah Jazz as he deals with right knee soreness. The 25-year-old has seen some very inconsistent output so far this season despite playing the most minutes per contest of his career. If he's unable to play, the […]
