Utah Jazz point/shooting guard Donovan Mitchell (concussion) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game vs. Houston after having been placed in the league's concussion protocol Tuesday.

Fantasy Basketball Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 14

The deeper a fantasy basketball league, the harder it is to hit a winner with your last few picks. It is also harder to find decent help from the waiver wire if your late-round picks don't do you justice. If you picked up a few stinkers, don't lose hope just yet. I will try to […]

Rudy Gobert Returns For Sunday

Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert will return for Sunday's game against the Denver Nuggets. Gobert has missed each of the last four games while following the league's health and safety protocols.

Utah Jazz forward Joe Ingles is available for Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The veteran forward has been building up his conditioning, but he appears ready to play on Wednesday.

We've had some ridiculous value in the past few weeks with guys like Herb Jones, Malik Monk, Cameron Johnson, and Coby White putting up second-round total value or better over the past two weeks. Two of those guys were in last week's streamers by the way, so we aren't doing too badly! Speaking of, I'm […]
