Robert Covington Produces Juicy Fantasy Line In Win

Portland Trail Blazers forward Robert Covington scored a season-high 21 points with 10 rebounds, five triples, two assists, two blocks, and two steals in Monday's win over the Hornets.

LaMelo Ball Scores 30 Points With Full Line

Charlotte Hornets guard LaMelo Ball played one of his better all-around games of the season in Monday's loss to Portland. Ball scored 30 points with eight assists, six rebounds, five treys, four steals, and a block in 32 minutes. The 19-year-old has looked like a veteran this season, as he earned the postgame praise of […]

Jarrett Allen Records Eighth Straight Double-Double

Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen produced yet another double-double in a 101-90 win over Houston. Allen scored 10 points with 15 rebounds- his eighth straight double-double- adding an assist and a block in 31 minutes.

John Wall Drops Season-High 32 Points

Houston Rockets guard John Wall dropped a season-high 32 points in a losing effort to the Cavaliers on Monday.

Collin Sexton Goes Off For 39 Points In Win Over Rockets

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Collin Sexton had an excellent showing in Monday's 101-90 win over the Rockets. Sexton poured in a game-high 39 points, adding eight assists, four triples, three rebounds, and two steals in 42 minutes. The 22-year-old did match his season-high with six turnovers, but fantasy managers can tolerate those, considering this was one […]

Jorge Polanco Feeling Healthy And Ready To Play Second Base

Minnesota Twins second baseman Jorge Polanco (ankle) is feeling healthy after having offseason ankle surgery for a second straight year. Polanco played through pain for much of the 2019 and 2020 campaigns, noting that his right ankle injury limited him when batting from the left side of the plate, a sentiment that the numbers support. Polanco […]

Brent Rooker Homers In Spring Debut

Minnesota Twins outfielder Brent Rooker went 1-for-2 with a solo home run in his Grapefruit League debut on Monday in a win over the Rays. In his very first at-bat of the spring, Rooker sent a 98-MPH Tyler Glasnow offering over the fence in right field to give the Twins a 1-0 lead. The 26-year-old […]

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Anthony Edwards had his third straight game with 20-plus points in a loss to the Suns.

The 35-year-old rounded out his line with 11 points, six rebounds, a triple, and a steal in 32 minutes.

Devin Booker Explodes For Season-High 43 Points

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker dropped a season-high 43 points in a win over the Timberwolves. Booker added five rebounds, five assists, a triple, and a block while making a season-high 12 free-throws in 34 minutes.

Dario Saric Available To Play Sunday

Phoenix Suns forward Dario Saric (ankle) will be available to play on Sunday against the Timberwolves. Saric missed the Suns' last game with a right ankle sprain but will be back out there on Sunday, albeit with a minutes restriction, per head coach Monty Williams.

San Antonio Spurs guard Derrick White (health and safety protocols) and forward Rudy Gay (health and safety protocols) are both out for Monday's game against the Nets. Forward Keldon Johnson (health and safety protocols) is being listed as questionable. All three players have missed the last two games, though Johnson is the only one with […]

Elfrid Payton Out Again Sunday

New York Knicks guard Elfrid Payton (hamstring) will miss his third straight game on Sunday against Detroit. Payton's absence has coincided with better play from Derrick Rose- the latter has three straight games with at least 16 points and six dimes. The added revenge factor against his former team, the Pistons, makes him an intriguing […]

Bam Adebayo, Tyler Herro Active Against The Hawks

Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo (knee) and guard Tyler Herro (hip) are both available to play against the Hawks on Sunday. Adebayo has been dealing with knee tendonitis, though it has yet to affect his play, as he's delivered a triple-double and four double-doubles in his last five contests. Herro has missed the previous three […]

Trae Young Will Play Sunday

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (adductor) will take the court on Sunday against the Heat. Young was listed as questionable, though he will be out there after struggling through Friday's game to the tune of 7-of-21 shooting. Still, he's largely been excellent this month and won't have a minutes restriction against Miami, so he should […]

Lewis Thorpe Shows Off Improved Fastball Velocity

Minnesota Twins pitcher Lewis Thorpe showed increased fastball velocity during a live batting practice session at Twins camp. Thorpe was clocked at 93 MPH after posting just an 89.7 MPH mark last year. The Australian left-hander made getting stronger a focus of his offseason, as he showed up to camp more muscular, and with a […]

Milwaukee Bucks guard Jrue Holiday (health and safety protocols) is likely to play on Sunday against the Clippers. Holiday has missed the previous 10 games while being in the league's health and safety protocols. The veteran guard practiced on Saturday and has reportedly been ramping up his conditioning, though it may take him a bit […]

Devonte' Graham To Miss Another Game Sunday

Charlotte Hornets guard Devonte' Graham (knee) will miss his fifth straight game with soreness in his left knee. Graham's absence has resulted in more usage for Terry Rozier and LaMelo Ball, who have both played great basketball in February. Rozier and Ball make for good DFS plays against the Kings' awful defense on Sunday night. […]

Gordon Hayward Probable, Cody Zeller Questionable For Sunday

Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (hand) has been listed as probable, while center Cody Zeller (hip) has been listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Kings. Hayward has been dealing with a bruise on his hand, though it has yet to cost him any games. Having scored 20-plus points in two of his last […]

Jeff Green Returns Saturday, Starting Against Dallas

Brooklyn Nets forward Jeff Green (shoulder) will be back on the court as a starter against Dallas on Saturday after missing the last two contests with a shoulder bruise. Green may have to do more as a scorer with Kyrie Irving (shoulder) and Kevin Durant (hamstring) already out. The veteran forward has had some good […]

Mike Conley Will Return Monday

Utah Jazz guard Mike Conley (hamstring) will play on Monday against the Pelicans. Conley was ruled out for Saturday's game, as it was the second half of a back-to-back. The veteran guard has been effective in four contests since returning from a hamstring injury that cost him a chunk of February games, as he's averaged […]

J.J. Redick Won't Play Against Spurs

New Orleans Pelicans guard J.J. Redick (hamstring) won't suit up on Saturday against the Spurs. There wasn't much revealed about how he suffered the injury, though the team downgrading him from questionable to doubtful was a telling sign. In Redick's absence, guard Josh Hart should see an uptick in minutes. Hart has been productive this […]

Malcolm Brogdon Ruled Out Against Knicks

Indiana Pacers guard Malcolm Brogdon (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's contest with New York. Brogdon was clearly bothered by his sore knee in his last outing- and the team is likely erring on the side of caution with the All-Star break coming up. T.J. McConnell will get the start in place of Brogdon. […]

Kristaps Porzingis Will Take The Court Against The Nets

Dallas Mavericks center Kristaps Porzingis (back) will be available against the Nets on Saturday night.

The Latvian big man doesn't have a minutes restriction, but head coach Rick Carlisle […]

Kyrie Irving Expected To Return Monday

Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving (shoulder) is expected to return to the lineup on Monday against the Spurs. Irving was ruled out for Saturday's game against the Mavericks, though head coach Steve Nash told reporters that it's not anything serious- and more of a maintenance thing. The cautious approach makes sense for Brooklyn, considering they're […]

Grayson Allen Out For Sunday Against Rockets

Memphis Grizzlies guard Grayson Allen (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Houston. Allen took a hit to the head during Friday's game- and was being evaluated by the team's medical staff. He's currently in the league's concussion protocol. Per-36 minute darling De'Anthony Melton is coming off a 16-point game and should be […]
