Nick Saldiveri: Going to reserve/PUP list
New Orleans placed Saldiveri (knee) on its reserve/physically unable to perform list Tuesday. Saldiveri is apparently still working his way back onto the field from the knee injury he suffered back in December of 2024. As it stands, he'll now have to miss at least the first four weeks of the 2026 campaign.Read More -

De'Von Achane: Inks four-year, $68M extension
The Dolphins signed Achane to a four-year, $68 million contract extension Wednesday, NFL reporter Jordan Schultz reports. Achane was headed into the final year of his rookie deal, and new GM Jon-Eric Sullivan and coach Jeff Hafley had been adamant that the talented running back is a building block of the future in Miami, even after the Dolphins shed salary this offseason. Achane's new deal will pay him $17 million per year in new money, making him the league's third-highest-paid running back behind Saquon Barkley and Christian McCaffrey. Achane started all 16 regular-season games in which he appeared last season, totaling a career-high 1,350 rushing yards and eight touchdown on 238 carries, averaging a league-high 5.8 yards per carry. He added 67 catches for 488 yards and four additional touchdowns on 85 targets in the passing game. Achane is still just 24 years old and figures to be a top-12 fantasy pick this season.Read More -

Benito Jones: Headed to Las Vegas
The Raiders signed Jones (back) on Wednesday. Jones appeared in 14 games with Miami in 2025, but he was shut down ahead of Week 17 with a back injury. Now, he's evidently in good shape for football activities again and is getting a shot with a new team. Las Vegas recently lost defensive tackle Leki Fotu to the Giants in free agency, and it's reasonable to suspect Jones could fill a similar role to the one Fotu left behind with the Raiders.Read More

Daniss Jenkins: Drops 19 points in spot start
Jenkins closed with 19 points (8-17 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal over 41 minutes during Wednesday's 117-113 overtime loss to the Cavaliers in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals. Jenkins moved into the starting lineup, replacing Duncan Robinson, who was ruled out with a back injury. Jenkins made the most of his opportunity, scoring a postseason-high 19 points, while also adding three combined steals and blocks. In 12 games across the postseason, Jenkins has averaged 8.0 points, 2.8 assists and 0.9 three-pointers in 21.1 minutes per game. However, he has now scored double digits in four of the past six games, seeing elevated minutes on a consistent basis.Read More -

Paul Reed: Increased role in Game 5 loss
Reed logged 10 points (4-7 FG, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, one assist and two blocks over 17 minutes during Wednesday's 117-113 overtime loss to the Cavaliers in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals. Reed played the entire fourth quarter, as well as the overtime period, supplanting Jalen Duren, who once again struggled to have any sort of tangible impact. While Reed was able to provide the team with some much-needed energy, it was not enough as Detroit snatched defeat from the jaws of victory, falling to a 3-2 series deficit.Read More -

Jalen Duren: Struggles again in overtime loss
Duren contributed nine points (3-5 FG, 3-4 FT), five rebounds, four assists and one steal in 25 minutes during Wednesday's 117-113 overtime loss to Cleveland in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Semifinals. Duren continues to struggle on both ends of the floor, to the point where he didn't touch the floor in the final quarter or during the overtime period. After a breakout season, Duren has been unable to carry that form into the postseason, averaging 10.1 points, 8.3 rebounds and 1.0 blocks through 12 appearances. Detroit now trails 3-2, with the series heading back to Cleveland. The Pistons would love to see the regular-season version of Duren, something that has certainly been missing thus far during the playoffs.Read More

Freddie Freeman: Posts steal in win
Freeman went 1-for-3 with a walk and a stolen base in Wednesday's 4-0 win over the Giants. The steal was Freeman's first of the season. He logged six steals on eight attempts over 147 contests in 2025, but ankle issues from 2024 have largely taken the speed element out of the 36-year-old's game. He's batting .326 (14-for-43) in May and is up to .277 on the year while adding a .784 OPS, four home runs, 20 RBI, 15 runs scored, 11 doubles and one triple over 41 contests.Read More -

Santiago Espinal: Hits first homer of season
Espinal went 1-for-3 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 4-0 win over the Giants. Espinal has filled a limited role this season, most often getting into the lineup against left-handed pitchers. His third-inning solo shot was his first homer of the campaign. The utility man is batting .200 with a .543 OPS, three RBI, four runs scored, two doubles and no stolen bases over 37 plate appearances. Unless he hits consistently, he'll likely remain in a short-side platoon role at best.Read More -

Mookie Betts: Goes yard in win
Betts went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Wednesday's 4-0 win over the Giants. Betts has gone 2-for-13 with one strikeout over three games since he returned from a right oblique strain. The shortstop wasn't hitting all that well prior to the injury, so he may need to shake off some rust over the next few games. Betts is up to three homers, eight RBI, eight runs scored and no stolen bases over 45 plate appearances this season while batting .171 with a .659 OPS.Read More

6 hours agoNico Sturm: Contributes two assists
Sturm logged two assists, two shots on goal and two hits in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Avalanche in Game 5. This was Sturm's first multi-point effort since Dec. 7, 2023. He ended the postseason at one goal, four assists, 10 shots on net, 17 hits and an even plus-minus rating over eight appearances. The Wild could experience some turnover at forward this offseason, but Sturm is under contract and will be in contention for bottom-six minutes if he remains with the team to start 2026-27.Read More -
M. Boldy Wild F
6 hours agoMatt Boldy: Provides pair of helpers
Boldy notched two assists, five shots on goal and three hits in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Avalanche in Game 5. Boldy was able to earn his fourth multi-point effort of the postseason, but the Wild's effort to keep their season alive still fell short. The winger had seven goals, six assists, 48 shots on net, 19 hits, eight blocked shots and a plus-5 rating over 11 playoff contests. Boldy solidified his star status with a 42-goal, 85-point regular season, and he'll be a key part of the Wild's core moving forward.Read More -
M. Johansson Wild F
6 hours agoMarcus Johansson: Strikes early in Game 5 loss
Johansson scored a goal in Wednesday's 4-3 overtime loss to the Avalanche in Game 5. Johansson tallied just 34 seconds into the game, setting the early tone in the Wild's favor. That didn't last, as the Avalanche controlled the last two periods of regulation and completed their comeback in overtime. Johansson earned three goals in the second round and four goals with 18 shots on net, 21 hits and an even plus-minus rating over 11 playoff contests. The 35-year-old winger is one of eight pending unrestricted free agents at forward for the Wild. He impressed with 49 points over 75 regular-season outings, his best campaign since 2016-17, so he should have a decent market if Minnesota opts not to bring him back.Read More
