Mathew Barzal Gets Assist No. 51 In Loss

New York Islanders center Mathew Barzal did what he could on Thursday night, but Washington overwhelmed his team. Barzal got an assist, along with Jordan Eberle, on Andrew Ladd's 10th goal of the season. Barzal is now No. 9 in the league in that category, so that's something. If you need assists, he's a good […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/16/18): NBA DFS Lineups

There was a sizable slate last night, which leaves only a six game slate for tonight. That's kind of odd, as Friday is generally the "big day" for the NBA. March Madness is going on right now, though, so maybe the NBA does not want to compete for ratings. Regardless, we still have plenty of […]

Sam Reinhart Finds His Consistency

Buffalo Sabres forward Sam Reinhart scored in the Sabres’ 5-2 loss at the hands of the Maple Leafs on Thursday. The goal was his fourth in his last six games, as he has found a way to remain productive amidst Buffalo’s poor season. The 22-year-old now has 26 points in his last 26 games. Reinhart […]

Tom Murphy Removed From Spring Training Game For Precautionary Reasons

Colorado Rockies catcher Tom Murphy was taken out of the game against the Angels after taking a backswing to the helmet. Murphy should be fine, though, as manager Bud Black does not seem to be concerned about his catcher at this point in time. Murphy has not exactly had the best spring training so far […]

Clint Capela Still Probable Thursday

Updating a previous report, Houston Rockets center Clint Capela (thumb) is still listed as probable Thursday night against the Los Angeles Clippers.

Goran Dragic Leads All Scorers With 33 Points

Miami Heat point guard Goran Dragic dominated the Sacramento Kings defense Wednesday night, tying his season high with 33 points on 11-for-21 shooting.

Dragic remains a low-end scoring point guard who struggles with inconsistency, […]

Markieff Morris Scores 20 Points In Duel With Brother

Washington Wizards forward/center Markieff Morris had a tough time defensively against his brother, Marcus Morris, and the Boston Celtics Wednesday night. Morris scored 20 points on 6-for-15 shooting and added seven rebounds and four assists, but gave up 31 points to his brother Marcus. The Wizards were still able to pull out a win in […]

Clint Capela Ruled Out Thursday

Houston Rockets center Clint Capela (thumb) will not play Thursday night against the Los Angeles Clippers. This comes as a surprise, as Capela was listed as probable leading up to Thursday. Although the injury is not considered serious, it will keep Capela out of the lineup against the Clippers. In his absence, Nene Hilario is […]

Frans Nielsen Set to Return Against Kings

Detroit Red Wings center Frans Nielsen (head) has been cleared to return and was practicing on the third line in advance of Thursday night’s game against the Los Angeles Kings.

FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (3/15/18): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

If you feel like gambling tonight, I support the decision. Not only cause it gives me some extra traffic, but because every game has unreal upside. Some of the leagues slower teams are playing, but so are the teams most prolific and explosive offenses. With playoff implications still holding all the chips in regards to […]

Trevor Booker is Questionable on Thursday

Indiana Pacers forward/center Trevor Booker (ankle) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He was on the court late in the game on Tuesday, so this is likely just a minor issue. Domantas Sabonis (ankle) is already ruled out for this contest, so Booker could be looking at an expanded role. Thaddeus Young, […]

Winnipeg Jets forward Paul Stastny was a late scratch for Tuesday's matchup with the Nashville Predators due to a lower-body injury. Before his injury, Stastny had two goals and six assists in seven games, including an assist in Monday's game against the Washington Capitals.

Logan Couture Has Three-Point Night Versus Oilers

San Jose Sharks center Logan Couture ended a four-game pointless streak in style, picking up three points in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime win against the Oilers.

Erik Haula Scores Twice In Losing Effort

Vegas Golden Knights forward Erik Haula had his second multi-goal game of the year on Wednesday, striking twice on the power play against the Devils.

2018 Fantasy Baseball Draft Values - Catcher

In recent years, many fantasy baseball analysts – including yours truly – have wondered about whether the term “sleeper” has much meaning anymore.

Tyler Seguin Shines With Three Points In Shootout Loss On Wednesday

Dallas Stars center Tyler Seguin had an exemplary performance on Wednesday in Toronto, registering a goal and two assists. In addition to setting up both Jamie Benn and Brett Ritchie wide open in the slot, Seguin lit the lamp on a beautiful individual effort in the second period.

Alex Avila (C, ARI) - 2018 Fantasy Baseball Sleepers & Draft Values

BALLER MOVE: Target ~350 CURRENT ADP: 398 ANALYSIS: Arizona Diamondbacks catcher Alex Avila was great last year with a .264/.387/.447 line and 14 bombs in 376 PA. Avila has two elite skills (plate discipline and contact quality) and is a disaster everywhere else. OBP and power are more than most fantasy catchers bring to the table though. […]

Andrew Shaw Injured After Head-to-Head Collision

Montreal Canadiens forward Andrew Shaw (head) was injured in Tuesday's game against the Dallas Stars. Shaw was attempting to hit Greg Pateryn when it appeared that his head collided with Pateryn's.

Mitchell Marner Puts Two Assists On The Board In Win

Toronto Maple Leafs forward Mitchell Marner put two assists on the board in the 6-5 win against the Dallas Stars. While Marner had a very slow start to the season and even spent time on the Maple Leafs fourth line, he's recently found his game and has 13 points in his last 10 games. Five […]
