Houston Rockets guard Gerald Green saw an increase in minutes against the Clippers on Sunday due to the suspension of point guard Chris Paul, and he responded by scoring 11 points on 4-for-8 shooting in 21 minutes while also grabbing four rebounds. Green has some fantasy potential against the Jazz on Wednesday on the final […]

Clint Capela Fills Stat Sheet Against Clippers

Houston Rockets center Clint Capela did a little of everything in Sunday's loss to the Clippers. He scored 23 points on 11-for-14 shooting while grabbing six rebounds and dishing five assists.

Gordon also added five rebounds and a pair of assists. He'll […]

James Harden Scores 31 Points Against Clippers

Though Houston fell by three to the Clippers, Harden put 31 points on 11-for-26 shooting while adding 14 assists. He had four rebounds and a pair of steals as […]

Eric Gordon Starting Sunday

Houston Rockets guard Eric Gordon will get the start on Sunday with Chris Paul (suspension) unavailable. Gordon will have a good chance to make an impact for the Rockets and should see a bump in his fantasy stock for the next two games. Meanwhile, expect an increase in playing time for Gerald Green in Gordon's […]

Nene Hilario Out Sunday

Houston Rockets center Nene Hilario (calf) won't make his season debut on Sunday against the Clippers, as he remains out. The Rockets have had to make due without a true backup center so far this season, with P.J. Tucker seeing time at the five in small ball units. As long as Nene is out, expect […]

Will Barton To Miss Unknown Amount Of Time

Denver Nuggets guard Will Barton (groin) was carted off the floor on Saturday and a timetable for his return remains unknown. Until Barton returns, expect to see an increase in playing time for Torrey Craig, who replaced Barton in the starting lineup for Sunday's meeting with the Warriors. Craig is unlikely to be a popular […]

Dwight Howard Not With Team On Road Trip

The Washington Wizards begin a five-game road trip on Monday against the Trail Blazers, but center Dwight Howard (glute) did not travel with the team. He'll be out for at least Monday's game, but his absence suggests that could stretch longer. Ian Mahinmi and Jason Smith will man the middle for Washington, but neither player […]

Dede Westbrook Records Four Catches In Week 7

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Dede Westbrook caught four passes for 17 yards in Sunday's loss to the Texans. Westbrook was targeted just four times in this game, ranking just fifth on the team. In a crowded receiving group, Westbrook isn't doing much to stand out aside from a pair of touchdown passes this season. He's […]

Keelan Cole Has Forgettable Week 7

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Keelan Cole caught two passes for 21 yards in Sunday's loss to the Houston Texans. Cole was targeted seven times, but he's now hauled in 41 yards or fewer in four of the last five weeks and appears to be falling down the ladder in terms of utilization in the Jacksonville […]

D.J. Chark Sees More Usage In Week 7

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver D.J. Chark caught four passes for 31 yards in Sunday's loss to the Texans. He was targeted seven times. The targets and receptions were both career-highs for the rookie, though it might be too early to suggest that it means much going forward. Still, with quarterback Cody Kessler closing the game, […]

Donte Moncrief Leads Team In Targets In Week 7

Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Donte Moncrief led the team with 10 targets in Week 7 against the Texans, pulling down seven of them for 76 yards. But while it was an impressive performance for Moncrief, his inconsistent usage over the course of the season still makes him little more than a risky flex option on […]

T.J. Yeldon Catches Touchdown In Week 7

Jacksonville Jaguars running back T.J. Yeldon struggled on the ground, carrying the ball 12 times for 28 yards in Sunday's loss to the Texans, but he continued to make things happen as a receiver, catching five balls for 40 yards and a touchdown. Yeldon's fantasy stock will depend a lot on how quickly the newly-acquired […]

Cody Kessler Throws For Touchdown In Week 7

The Jacksonville Jaguars made a change at quarterback during Sunday's loss to Jacksonville, bringing Cody Kessler off the bench to replace the struggling Blake Bortles. Kessler wasn't great, but he did go 21-for-30 for 156 yards, tossing a touchdown to running back T.J. Yeldon while also throwing an interception. The Jaguars play the Eagles in […]

DeAndre Hopkins Catches Touchdown In Week 7

Houston Texans wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins only pulled in three of his eight targets in Sunday's win against the Jacksonville Jaguars, but Hopkins turned those three catches into 50 yards and a touchdown to still give fantasy owners solid production. Hopkins should play a bigger role in Thursday's meeting with the Dolphins and remains a […]

Will Fuller Catches Six Passes Against Jaguars

Houston Texans wide receiver Will Fuller didn't make the big plays he's become known for, but he did bounce back after a pair of poor performances to turn in a six-catch, 68-yard day in Houston's Week 7 win over Jacksonville. Though the Texans passing attack didn't get much going on Sunday, Fuller's usage helps assuage […]

Lamar Miller Has Big Week 7

Houston Texans running back Lamar Miller finally looked like the back that many people had targeted in fantasy drafts during Houston's Week 7 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Miller ran for 100 yards on 22 carries with a touchdown. He also had one reception, but he lost a yard on it. Miller's 22 carries far […]

Deshaun Watson Doesn't Do Much In Week 7

Houston Texans quarterback Deshaun Watson threw for just 139 yards in Sunday's win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. Watson was 12-for-24 throwing the ball with a touchdown and no interceptions. He also added seven carries for 13 yards. The Jaguars defense managed to hold Watson relatively in check, and Houston's defense shut Jacksonville down enough that […]

LeBron James Scores Team-High 24 Points Against Houston

Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James led the Lakers with 24 points on 9-for-22 shooting in Saturday's loss to the Rockets. James also added in five rebounds, five assists, a steal, and a block, but he continued to struggle from deep, going just 1-for-7 from three. The Lakers play the Spurs on Monday, whose defense […]

Rajon Rondo, Brandon Ingram Ejected On Saturday

Clint Capela Records Double-Double Against Lakers

Houston Rockets center Clint Capela scored 19 points on 9-for-16 shooting in Saturday's victory over the Los Angeles Lakers. Capela also added 12 rebounds and a blocked shot. Houston plays the Clippers on Sunday, a team that lacks the right combination of players up front to stop opposing big men. No team has allowed more […]

Chris Paul Ejected On Saturday

Houston Rockets point guard Chris Paul was ejected from Saturday's victory over the Lakers and could face a suspension after an altercation with Rajon Rondo. Paul scored 28 points on 9-for-17 shooting with 10 assists and seven rebounds before the ejection, but Paul's short term outlook is murky as the Rockets wait for the league […]

James Harden Scores 36 Points Against Lakers

Houston Rockets guard James Harden scored a team-high 36 points in Saturday's win over the Los Angeles Lakers. Harden was 10-for-19 from the field and also added in seven rebounds, five assists, two steals, and a block.

Myles Turner With Efficient Game Against Nets

Indiana Pacers center Myles Turner scored 14 points on 4-for-7 shooting in Saturday's win over the Brooklyn Nets. He also added eight rebounds, two assists, a steal, and a block.

Victor Oladipo Scores 25 Against Nets

Indiana Pacers guard Victor Oladipo scored 25 points in Saturday's victory over the Brooklyn Nets, connecting on 10 of his 20 shot attempts while also adding seven rebounds, three assists, and four steals.

Spencer Dinwiddie Productive Off Bench Saturday

Brooklyn Nets point guard Spencer Dinwiddie scored 13 points on 4-for-11 shooting in 26 minutes off the bench in Saturday's loss to the Pacers. He added four assists and a steal as well. The emergence of Caris Levert has hurt some of Dinwiddie's passing upside, as he's currently averaging 1.3 fewer assists per game than […]

Jarrett Allen Struggles Against Pacers

Brooklyn Nets center Jarrett Allen scored eight points on 4-for-7 shooting in Saturday's loss to the Indiana Pacers. He grabbed just three rebounds and blocked one shot as Indiana's bigs were able to mostly neutralize the second-year center. He should be set for a bounce back game against Cleveland on Sunday, a team allowing the […]

Caris LeVert Continues Strong Start To Season

Brooklyn Nets guard Caris Levert didn't have his third 20-point outing in a row on Saturday, but he did continue to show why he was a popular sleeper pick heading into this season. LeVert scored 19 points on 8-for-9 shooting and also added four rebounds, three assists, two steals, and a block. LeVert has been […]

D'Angelo Russell Fills Stat Sheet Against Pacers

Brooklyn Nets point guard D'Angelo Russell scored 12 points on 5-for-16 shooting in Saturday's loss to the Indiana Pacers. Russell also added in seven assists and six rebounds for the Nets.
