WNBA Daily Fantasy Lineup Picks (7/19/19): WNBA DFS Advice for DraftKings and FanDuel

We have three games in the WNBA tonight, headlined by a fun Aces/Storm game (that might not be much fun for DFS players, as the team's have both been good defensively lately). But before that, we get another Dream/Sun meeting -- a matchup that's always fun -- and a Mystics/Fever game that might not look […]

Broncos Sign David Williams

The Denver Broncos have signed running back David Williams, who the team originally drafted in 2018 before letting go. Williams was a Jaguar last season, but carried the ball just eight times for 36 yards with Jacksonville. It's hard to imagine a situation where Williams has fantasy value in a Broncos backfield that already has […]

Tyreek Hill Will Not Be Suspended

The NFL will not suspend Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill for violating the league's player-conduct policy. Hill was under investigation for an incident in which his son's arm was broken. With Hill cleared to be on the field, the Chiefs wideout is once again on track to be one of the league's top […]

Jordan Akins Expects To Have Versatile Role

Houston Texans tight end Jordan Akins expects to be used in various spots on the field in 2019. While the battle for playing time at the tight end position will be tough between Akins, Jordan Thomas, and rookie Kahale Warring, Akins being able to be used in the backfield and in the slot can help […]

Fantasy Basketball Risers And Fallers: Summer League 2019

Well, another Summer League has come and gone. This one wasn't quite as exciting as past Summer Leagues because we saw some big name guys sitting out, including Zion Williamson, who left after a knee injury in his first game, while some players arrived late because of all the trades that held up their ability […]

Dragan Bender Signing With CSKA Moscow

Another NBA player appears to be returning to international play, as power forward Dragan Bender has reportedly agreed to a multi-year deal with CSKA Moscow. Bender, whose team option was declined by the Suns and was a free agent, found the NBA free agency landscape to be a tough place for him and despite interest […]

Rodney Anderson Will Likely Start Season On PUP List

Cincinnati Bengals rookie running back Rodney Anderson (knee) is expected to open the 2019 season on the Physically Unable to Perform (PUP) list. If he does, Anderson will have to miss the first six games of the season and will be significantly behind in the battle for backup minutes in Cincinnati. This news likely means […]

Bear Down - Players Whose Target Share May Decrease

In order to rack up a lot of receptions and receiving yards, a wide receiver usually needs to get a good number of targets. For example, every 1,000-yard receiver last season had at least 100 targets. The closest anyone outside the 100 club came was Tyler Lockett, who had 965 yards on just 70 targets. […]

WNBA Daily Fantasy Lineup Picks (7/17/19): WNBA DFS Advice for DraftKings and FanDuel

After two days with no WNBA games, we're back with a three-game slate on Wednesday, with a noon game, an afternoon game, and a night game for you to enjoy. In this article, I'll be providing you with some daily fantasy WNBA lineup picks for DraftKings and FanDuel on 7/17/19. These lineups picks will range from […]

Roc Thomas Suspended Three Games

Minnesota Vikings running back Roc Thomas has been suspended three games for violating the league's substance-abuse policy. Thomas had just eight carries during his rookie season and is buried behind Dalvin Cook and rookie Alexander Mattison on the team's depth chart, so the suspension doesn't really mean much for his already nonexistent fantasy stock. Thomas […]

Blake Griffin Resuming Basketball Activities

Last season, Detroit Pistons power forward Blake Griffin dealt with a knee injury that limited his availability at the end of the season and the beginning of the playoffs, which led Griffin to have knee surgery in the offseason. The surgery wasn't expected to keep Griffin out of any offseason activities, and Tuesday's announcement that […]

Brandon Clarke Named Summer League MVP

Memphis Grizzlies rookie forward Brandon Clarke was named the MVP of the Las Vegas Summer League. In six games, Clarke averaged 14.7 points and 9.8 rebounds per contest, showing that he can be a valuable piece of the Grizzlies' rotation this upcoming season. The Grizzlies are a young and rebuilding team, and Clarke is bound […]

Nets Sign Henry Ellenson To Two-Way Deal

The Brooklyn Nets have signed power forward Henry Ellenson to a two-way contract. Ellenson's first three NBA seasons -- split between the Pistons and Knicks -- have largely been disappointments, and he finished last season with an average of six points and 3.5 rebounds per game in just 19 appearances. A two-way deal will limit […]

Royce Freeman Could Snag More Carries

In 2018, Phillip Lindsay had 192 carries to fellow rookie Royce Freeman's 130, but Justin Adams of CBS 4 believes that that may change in 2019. Lindsay is recovering from a wrist injury and has yet to participate in offseason activities with the team, which Adams believes has put Freeman in a position to potentially […]

Cavaliers Waive J.R. Smith

The Cleveland Cavaliers have waived veteran guard J.R. Smith, clearing the way for Smith to join a contending team. Smith averaged 6.7 points and shot just 30.8 percent from the field last season, but played in just 11 games for Cleveland. A healthy Smith could be a decent bench piece for a playoff team, but […]

Alex Collins Breaks Leg

NFL free-agent running back Alex Collins has reportedly broken his leg, derailing a potential NFL comeback that was already complicated by an arrest in March. Collins had been training and had hoped to play in 2019, but the former Ravens rusher's entire NFL future looks to be in doubt at this point. While he's still […]

Bengals Guard Clint Boling Retires

Cincinnati Bengals offensive lineman Clint Boling has retired due to a blood clot in his right leg. Boling was projected to be the starting right guard for Cincinnati this year, and his sudden retirement leaves the Bengals in a rough spot. Pro Football Focus ranked the Bengals offensive line as the league's 27th-best unit after […]

Jadeveon Clowney And Texans Don't Reach Long-Term Deal

Houston Texans defensive end Jadeveon Clowney and the team were unable to reach a long-term deal before Monday's deadline, which means Clowney will play on the franchise tag this season. The former number-one overall pick is expected to hold out for most of training camp, but there's been no indication yet that he'll miss time […]

Chris Herndon IV Suspended Four Games

New York Jets tight end Chris Herndon IV has been suspended four games by the NFL for a DUI last June. The four games is longer than the rumored two game suspension that had been previously reported, which makes Herndon a tougher player to value in fantasy. Once he's back, he has the ability to […]

Derrius Guice Suffers Hamstring Injury

Washington Redskins running back Derrius Guice has suffered a hamstring injury and will likely miss the start of training camp. Guice missed all of last season with an ACL injury, so another setback for the former second round pick isn't good news. If healthy, Guice projects to be the lead back of Washington's committee, but […]

Rockets Sign Tyson Chandler

The Houston Rockets have signed veteran center Tyson Chandler, who played 55 games last season for the Suns and Lakers. Chandler averaged just 3.1 points and 5.6 rebounds per game, and he'll likely be mired in the back of the Houston rotation this year, seeing 10-15 minutes per game on what could be an irregular […]

Alex Abrines And Timofey Mozgov Sign International Deals

At least two more NBA players won't be in the league this upcoming season, as guard Alex Abrines has signed with FC Barcelona and center Timofey Mozgov has signed with Khimki Moscow. Abrines played for the Thunder most recently, while Mozgov played for the Magic, though both players have recently been limited with injuries. Neither […]

WNBA Daily Fantasy Lineup Picks (7/12/19): WNBA DFS Advice for DraftKings and FanDuel

An eventful night in the WNBA, as we have five games going on and a handful of players returning from EuroBasket, which complicates things even more. New York, for instance, has three new players to fit into the rotation, which makes it tough to figure out what they'll do. Factor in that while the players […]

Mack Hollins Likely To Be Eagle's Fifth Receiver

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Mack Hollins missed all of last season with a groin injury, but Eagles beat reporter Mike Kaye believes that Hollins is the most likely candidate to win the team's fifth receiver spot. Hollins is competing against Marken Michel and Charles Johnson for the spot, but heading into training camp he appears […]

Chris Paul Traded To Thunder

The Houston Rockets have traded point guard Chris Paul to the Oklahoma City Thunder in exchange for Russell Westbrook. It's hard to know what to make of the deal for Paul, because so much remains up in the air. ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski reports that the Thunder are still looking to move Paul after the deal, […]

Russell Westbrook Traded To Houston

The Oklahoma City Thunder and Houston Rockets have completed a deal that sends point guard Russell Westbrook to Houston, pairing him once again with former teammate James Harden. With Paul George no longer in Oklahoma City, Westbrook was set to have a huge season statistically, but he'll go back to playing a role similar to […]

2019 NBA Free Agency: Fantasy Risers and Fallers

NBA free agency was a pretty drawn out process this year, but things have slowed down enough that we can talk about where things stand now. There's been a lot of movement around the NBA, especially when it comes to the big name players. Kawhi Leonard. Paul George. Kevin Durant. Kyrie Irving. Kemba Walker. All […]

Coby White Expected To Come Off Bench As Rookie

Chicago Bulls rookie point guard Coby White is expected to take a backseat to some of the team's other options this upcoming season. Bulls vice president of basketball operations John Paxson said that White's got a lot of learning to do and that the speed of the game could be an issue for White, while […]

Kelly Oubre Jr. Signs Deal With Suns

Restricted free agent forward Kelly Oubre Jr. has signed a two-year deal to remain with the Phoenix Suns. Oubre is a solid player who's likely to end up starting at the three for the Suns, and he has solid fantasy upside as a guy who can give Phoenix something close to 15 points and five […]

Jaguars Sign Receiver Marcus Simms

Following the NFL's Supplemental Draft, the Jacksonville Jaguars have signed undrafted West Virginia wide receiver Marcus Simms. Simms, who was rumored to be a Jacksonville target heading into the Supplemental Draft, caught 46 passes for 699 yards and two touchdowns last season and will have a chance to compete for a spot in the team's […]
