Orlando Releases Jeff Teague rotoballer.com Sat 3/27/21 2:21 PM

Point guard Jeff Teague is set to become a free agent after having been released by the Magic shortly after his acquisition in the Evan Fournier deal. The move is somewhat surprising given how strapped Orlando has been for PG contributions due to the injuries to Markelle Fultz and Cole Anthony, but the trio of Michael Carter-Williams, Chasson Randle and R.J. Hampton appears set to handle PG duties for the time being. Teague struggled to find a niche with Boston, getting into 34 games (five...

Jeff Teague Enters Starting Five Wednesday rotoballer.com Wed 2/24/21 7:18 PM

Boston Celtics point/shooting guard Jeff Teague will start Wednesday's contest versus the Hawks in place of Kemba Walker (knee, rest). Teague has averaged 9.3 PPG in his three previous starts this year, as he'll have solid punt play appeal when facing his former team. With Walker out of the mix, Payton Pritchard also draws DFS consideration as the top guard off the bench. Having fallen heavily out of favor, Teague will look to carve out a niche for himself moving forward with a solid ...

Jeff Teague Receives Green Light To Return For Friday’s Game rotoballer.com Fri 1/8/21 6:09 PM

Boston Celtics point guard Jeff Teague (ankle) has been cleared to suit up for Friday's contest against the Wizards, stemming his absence due to an ankle injury at two games. His return zaps Payton Pritchard of his fantasy intrigue, as the rookie filled in with an increased role as a reserve with Teague down. While the veteran has dished out multiple assists in every game that he has played thus far in 2020-21, he has scored in double figures just once since opening night. His 33.3 percent ...

Boston Lists Jeff Teague As Questionable To Play Friday rotoballer.com Thu 1/7/21 6:48 PM

Boston Celtics point guard Jeff Teague (ankle) has been battling a sprained left ankle that has kept him out of the team's two most recent contests, but he has been upgraded to questionable for Friday's game against the Wizards. With Marcus Smart back in the fold, he has taken over full-time PG duties, while Payton Pritchard has seen an increased role in Teague's absence; a return from the veteran would zap the rookie of nearly all his fantasy intrigue. Teague has been quiet since a 19-point ...

Marcus Smart In, Jeff Teague Out Wednesday Night rotoballer.com Wed 1/6/21 6:28 PM

The Boston Celtics will be without guard Jeff Teague (ankle) again Wednesday against the Miami Heat, but will get guard Marcus Smart (thumb) back after a one-game absence. Smart's return will likely push Tremont Waters back to the bench who will take a huge hit in fantasy value. Teague, missing his second straight, should give more minutes to Payton Pritchard, who had a career-high 23 points and eight assists on Monday off the bench. Pritchard has played extremely well, with and without ...

Marcus Smart, Jeff Teague Questionable To Play Wednesday rotoballer.com Tue 1/5/21 6:22 PM

Boston Celtics point guards Marcus Smart (thumb) and Jeff Teague (ankle) have been deemed questionable to play in Wednesday's tilt versus the Heat. Both sat out the team's win Monday, which saw Tremont Waters draw the start, while Payton Pritchard starred with an extended role. Head coach Brad Stevens praised Pritchard, and should either Smart or Teague be held out another contest, the rookie out of the University of Oregon would likely continue to see a substantial backcourt role. Check back ...

Jeff Teague Ruled Out For Monday’s Contest rotoballer.com Mon 1/4/21 1:18 PM

Boston Celtics point guard Jeff Teague (ankle) will miss Monday's game versus the Raptors due to a sprained left ankle. Without Teague available off the bench, Payton Pritchard should be in line for an increased role as the backup PG. Further confounding Boston's backcourt situation, Marcus Smart (thumb) has been deemed questionable to play against Toronto, potentially opening Pritchard up to considerable DFS appeal. Teague has established a consistent role in the Celtics' second unit, albeit...

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team LeaguesROSTERED IN: 40% of leaguesANALYSIS: Week of two very different halves for Boston's veteran backup point-guard. Teague has played four games in the past seven days, and 19+ minutes in all of them starting the one on Dec. 30th against Memphis. Teague is going to stay a backup, though, don't get that wrong.

Jeff Teague Signing With Celtics rotoballer.com Sat 11/21/20 9:45 PM

Free agent point guard Jeff Teague is signing a one-year deal with the Boston Celtics. Considering Teague almost exclusively played the one until his 25 games beside Trae Young in Atlanta last season, we can safely assume he's being brought in as a backup to Kemba Walker and not much else. That's not a role that looks set to produce much in the way of fantasy production.

Hawks Are Seeking Backup Point Guard This Offseason rotoballer.com Thu 5/14/20 9:31 PM

Atlanta Hawks general manager Travis Schlenk recently said that the backup point guard position is something they need to address this offseason. Veteran Jeff Teague struggled to adjust to his role with the team after he arrived via trade from Minnesota. "I feel like a rookie out here. Im playing nervous," said Teague. He is set to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason. There's a good chance that Teague plays elsewhere next season, so the Hawks will need to fill that role, assuming ...
