Andreas Athanasiou Signs Two-Year Extension With Blackhawks
Chicago Blackhawks forward Andreas Athanasiou has received a two-year extension from the club that pays him $8.5 million. The 28-year-old was heading toward unrestricted free agency before inking the new deal.

Andre Drummond Likely To Exercise Player Option
Chicago Bulls center Andre Drummond is expected to exercise his $3.3 million player option for the 2023-2024 season. The big man had a minimal role in Chicago last season, but did play in 67 contests. He averaged 6.0 points, 6.6 rebounds, and 0.5 assists in 12.7 minutes per game. Drummond was effective off the bench, […]

Miami Heat center Cody Zeller (foot) will suit up for Wednesday's Game 3 matchup against the Denver Nuggets. As expected, Zeller will play despite dealing with a sprained right foot.

Gary Sanchez Moves Into Cleanup Spot Wednesday
San Diego Padres catcher Gary Sanchez is hitting out of the cleanup spot Wednesday against Seattle Mariners right-hander George Kirby. It's just his eighth start of the season for the Padres but the first out of the four-hole, although the promotion certainly makes sense considering Sanchez has already clubbed three homers in short order for […]

Christopher Morel Not In Tuesday's Lineup
Chicago Cubs outfielder Christopher Morel is absent from the lineup for Tuesday's contest against Tyler Anderson and the Los Angeles Angels. The 23-year-old came on strong this year and is slashing .256/.318/.641 over 22 games, but hasn't recorded a hit since April 26 and is losing playing time. Instead, it will be catcher Miguel Amaya […]
Rockets Targeting Brook Lopez
According to Jake Fischer of Yahoo.com, the Rockets are expected to target free-agent center Brook Lopez. The 35-year-old was still a reliable fantasy contributor last season, averaging 15.9 points, 6.7 rebounds, and 2.5 blocks. He also shot a career-high 37.4% from deep and appeared in 78 games, his most since 2018-19. That said, if Lopez […]

New York Mets catcher Francisco Alvarez is out of the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Atlanta Braves. The rookie backup appears to be getting a routine rest day here.

Sean Murphy Back In The Starting Lineup Tuesday
Atlanta Braves catcher Sean Murphy is back in the starting lineup Tuesday against the New York Mets and veteran right-hander Carlos Carrasco. Murphy didn't start Sunday's game but ended up making three pinch-hit plate appearances. However, with the Braves idle on Monday, Murphy should be rested up for Tuesday night's divisional contest. The former A's […]

Terry Stotts Joins Bucks Staff
The Milwaukee Bucks are continuing to add as they bring in another coach to their staff. The organization is reportedly finalizing a deal to bring Terry Stotts in as the assistant coach. Stotts was the head coach of the Portland Trail Blazers from 2012-2021. He made eight straight playoff appearances with the organization, while winning […]
Stephen Silas Joins Pistons Coaching Staff
Newly hired head coach Monty Williams isn't waiting around to fill the rest of his coaching staff. On Monday, the Pistons hired former head coach Stephen Silas to be Detroit's top assistant coach. Silas was let go by the Houston Rockets after a three-year stint with the team. He complied a 59-177 record in that […]
