FantasyDonation jump into 1st place in 146.5-74.3 rout

FantasyDonation jumped into first place in Fantasy Junkies with a convincing victory over Slam Diego, cruising to a 146.5-74.3 win. It didn't take long to figure out who would be the frontrunner in the matchup, as FantasyDonation earned a 102-point lead early Sunday afternoon behind standout showings from Deshaun Watson and Will Fuller V. Watson passed for 335 yards and 4 touchdowns and ran for 26 yards for 35 points, while Fuller V caught 6 passes for 123 yards and a touchdown (24.3 points). Travis Kelce (5 Rec, 65 Rec Yds, 2 Rec TDs) and James Robinson (29 Rush Yds, 24 Rec Yds, 1 Rec TD) carried the flag for Slam Diego in the loss. FantasyDonation (5-1) have now won five matchups in a row and will look to sustain their momentum against The MRI Machine. Slam Diego (4-2) will meet WeekendRuiner in an effort to generate some positive momentum.
