Austin Wells Goes For Another MRI Tuesday
New York Yankees catching prospect Austin Wells (ribs), who sustained a bone bruise in his right rib cage in mid-February, was sent for another MRI Tuesday after he felt some discomfort while receiving treatment. Manager Aaron Boone said the 23-year-old is "not doing much yet," as the club awaits the results of his latest MRI. […]
Anze Kopitar Scores Four Goals In Comeback Victory
Los Angeles Kings center Anze Kopitar scored four goals in Tuesday's 6-5 shootout victory against the Jets. It is the second four-goal game of Kopitar's NHL career, as the Kings captain completed a hat trick in the second period to lead the team to a comeback victory and achieve the four-goal mark in a single […]
Cal Raleigh Makes Spring Debut Tuesday
Seattle Mariners catcher Cal Raleigh (thumb) made his spring debut in Tuesday's 9-8 win over the Guardians. Batting fifth, Raleigh went 0-for-3 with two strikeouts. The 26-year-old had surgery this off-season for a broken left thumb and torn ligaments, so he has been intentionally eased into action. Raleigh provided power from a weak fantasy position […]
Maxi Kleber Will Play Limited Minutes Tuesday
Dallas Mavericks forward/center Maxi Kleber (hamstring) will play a reduced role on Tuesday against the Indiana Pacers. Kleber is returning after about a two and a half month break due to a right hamstring tear so the limited minutes makes sense from a coaching perspective. Dwight Powell will continue to start for now but may […]
Pierre-Luc Dubois A Game-Time Call Tuesday
Winnipeg Jets center Pierre-Luc Dubois (lower body) missed Tuesday's morning skate and is a game-time decision for a matchup against L.A. Dubois has been enjoying a very good season with 55 points in 60 games but could be unavailable for the first time this term. Adam Lowry is in line to move to the top […]
P.J. Washington Considered Doubtful For Wednesday
Charlotte Hornets forward P.J. Washington (foot) has been tagged as doubtful again for their next contest against the Phoenix Suns on Wednesday. The 24-year-old has missed the last two games with a right foot strain and it looks more than likely that he'll miss at least a third. JT Thor might move into the starting […]
Kristaps Porzingis Downgraded To Out On Tuesday
Washington Wizards center Kristaps Porzingis (knee) has been downgraded from doubtful to out on Tuesday against the Atlanta Hawks. Hopefully, there weren't any fantasy managers depending on Porzingis because the doubtful status doesn't usually turn out well when tipoff comes closer. While he remains sidelined, Daniel Gafford and Deni Avdija should see the most opportunities […]
Marcus Johansson Returns To Minnesota
The Minnesota Wild have brought back forward Marcus Johansson to the club, receiving him from the Washington Capitals for a 2024 third-round draft pick. Johansson also played with the Wild in 2020-21, recording eight six goals and eight assists in 36 games. It wasn't a great campaign for Johansson, but the Wild clearly liked something […]
Juancho Hernangomez Waived By Toronto
Toronto Raptors forward Juancho Hernangomez is reportedly getting waived by the team on Tuesday. The 27-year-old appeared in 42 games for the Raptors while starting 10 of those contests. He posted averages of 2.9 points, 2.9 rebounds, and 0.6 assists on 42.1% shooting. The addition of Jakob Poeltl seemed to seal the fate of Hernangomez […]

Max Domi Continues Hot Streak With Two Assists
Chicago Blackhawks forward Max Domi continued to lead the charge for the team in Monday's matchup against Anaheim, finishing a 4-2 loss with two assists. Both of his helpers came on the power play, with Tyler Johnson and Andreas Athanasiou the goal-scorers. Domi is now on a seven-game point streak, which includes four goals and […]

James Wiseman Notches 23 Points With Only Two Misses
Detroit Pistons center James Wiseman nearly had a perfect performance from the field while racking up 23 points in Monday's 117-106 loss to the Hornets.

Kristaps Porzingis Doubtful To Play Tuesday
Washington Wizards forward/center Kristaps Porzingis (knee) is doubtful to play Tuesday against the Atlanta Hawks. Porzingis is trending towards a second straight absence due to knee soreness which would likely pave the way for another start from Deni Avdija. Avdija did not perform well in the last start but has some upside due to his […]
Isaiah Stewart Won't Play On Monday
Detroit Pistons center Isaiah Stewart (hip) has been downgraded to out for Monday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. The big man was forced to exit early during Saturday's game due to right hip soreness. It appears the problem is still bothering him, so Stewart will miss this game. Marvin Bagley III went off with 21 […]

Philadelphia Flyers forward Travis Konecny (upper body) is expected to miss an extended period of time.
