FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (11/27/21): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

Oh, what an eventful night it was around the National Basketball Association. The post-Thanksgiving slate began with the matinee, featuring the Clippers taking down the Pistons in Los Angeles. Following, some of the hottest teams in the league were in action, with the Suns extending its current win streak to 15 games. The Hornets also […]

Ja Morant Injures Knee Against Atlanta, Out For The Game

Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant (knee) will not return to Friday's matchup against the Hawks. Morant injured his left knee during the first quarter and required assistance back to the locker room, where he subsequently was ruled out for the rest of the night. Without a doubt, the team and fantasy managers alike are hoping […]

Harrison Barnes Out With A Foot Injury Against Lakers

Sacramento Kings forward Harrison Barnes (foot) is out on Friday versus the Lakers. The veteran is dealing with a sprained right foot, although it's unknown how long the injury will keep him on the shelf. Nonetheless, Marvin Bagley III, who nearly had a double-double on Wednesday night, could be in line for more work against […]

Richaun Holmes Absent Again On Friday Night

Sacramento Kings center Richaun Holmes (eye) is out for Friday's game against the Lakers. During the veteran's most recent appearance against OKC, he took a poke to the right eye, which caused him to miss the team's previous matchup against the Trail Blazers on Thanksgiving Eve. As a result, Alex Len, who had 12 points […]

Nikola Jokic To Miss His Fourth Straight Game

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic (wrist) is out on Friday against the Bucks. The reigning MVP will now miss his fourth consecutive game as he continues to be bothered by a sprained right wrist. This certainly isn't ideal, primarily since the team has already been without Michael Porter Jr. (back). Nonetheless, JaMychal Green, Jeff Green, […]

Robert Williams III Still Sick, Out Again On Friday

Boston Celtics center Robert Williams III (illness) won't play on Friday night versus San Antonio. The 24-year-old has been sick, although fortunately, it isn't COVID-related, and there is a chance he could be back on Sunday in Toronto. In the meantime, Al Horford and Grant Williams should continue to benefit. During the 2021-22 campaign, Williams […]

Bogdan Bogdanovic Good To Go Against Memphis

Atlanta Hawks forward Bogdan Bogdanovic (hamstring) will play against the Grizzlies. The veteran has made frequent appearances on the injury report because of a nagging left hamstring issue, but it hasn't caused him to miss any time recently. Nonetheless, his inconsistent play should be worrisome for DFS managers, although his shooting percentages should keep him […]

Trae Young Will Suit Up Against Memphis

Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (ankle) will play against the Grizzlies. The 23-year-old is battling a sprained left ankle, so there is a chance he may be limited to some degree during this favorable matchup. Young is averaging 25.3 points and 9.1 assists while shooting a respectable 37.5 percent from deep this season, so fantasy […]

Khem Birch To Miss Another Game

Toronto Raptors forward Khem Birch (knee) will miss his second straight game on Friday against the Pacers. The 29-year-old is currently dealing with swelling in his right knee, which will open the door for Precious Achiuwa to get the nod for the starting lineup. The other night against the Grizzlies, Achiuwa had 17 points while […]

OG Anunoby Set For Another Absence On Friday

Toronto Raptors forward OG Anunoby (hip) is out on Friday versus Indiana. He has already missed his previous four games because of a pointer in his right hip. However, the team remains optimistic that he will be back soon, potentially as early as Sunday's meeting against the visiting Celtics. Nonetheless, until he returns, Gary Trent […]

Zion Williamson Cleared For Full Basketball Activities

New Orleans Pelicans forward Zion Williamson (foot) has been cleared to resume full basketball activities. The sophomore hasn't played this year as he worked his way back from offseason foot surgery. His weight has also been an issue, so rehab has gone somewhat slower than initially anticipated. Nonetheless, the latest update suggests Williamson could be […]

Mason Plumlee Dealing With A Calf Issue

Charlotte Hornets center Mason Plumlee (calf) remains questionable heading into the matchup versus Minnesota. The 31-year-old veteran strained his right calf on Wednesday against the Orlando Magic, so there's a good chance that he would concede minutes to P.J. Washington, who recently returned from a 10-game absence, even if he does play. Nonetheless, both are […]

Mitchell Robinson Back In The Lineup Against Phoenix

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (concussion) will return on Friday against Phoenix after missing his previous two games because of a concussion. The big man will reclaim his place in the starting lineup, moving Nerlens Noel back to the bench. Nonetheless, Mitchell has taken a step back statistically this year, and with Deandre Ayton […]

Cole Anthony Will Miss Another One

Orlando Magic guard Cole Anthony (ankle) won't play against the visiting Bulls. The 21-year-old will now miss his fourth consecutive contest as he deals with a right ankle sprain. This is not an ideal scenario, especially since Anthony is averaging 19.6 points, 6.8 boards, and 5.9 assists, so the team is undoubtedly hoping to have […]

Derrick Rose To Miss Another One On Friday Night

New York Knicks guard Derrick Rose (ankle) won't play on Friday against Phoenix, marking his second straight absence. The veteran is currently dealing with a sprained right ankle, which could allow Immanuel Quickley to get more minutes against the Suns. The sophomore will be entering the matchup, having logged three consecutive double-digit outings, so managers […]

Taj Gibson Remains On The Injury Report Versus Phoenix

New York Knicks forward/center Taj Gibson (groin) is questionable for Friday's matchup versus Phoenix. The veteran remains on the injury report after missing his previous three games because of a sore groin. Unfortunately for the team, Mitchell Robinson (concussion) also carries the same designation, so Nerlens Noel could move back into the starting lineup against […]

Mitchell Robinson Questionable On Friday Night

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (concussion) is questionable for Friday's game against the visiting Suns. The 23-year-old has been absent over his last two outings because of a concussion he sustained against the Houston Rockets last Saturday. Taj Gibson (groin) is also questionable, potentially leaving the team with a massive void underneath the basket. […]

Matt Breida Puts The Nail In The Coffin On Thursday

Buffalo Bills running back Matt Breida likely sealed the Saints' Week 12 fate on Thursday. Getting a more prominent role after Zack Moss was a healthy scratch, the 26-year-old hauled in a pass from Josh Allen for a 23-yard touchdown. With another score for the Bills, Buffalo currently leads New Orleans 31-6 halfway through the […]

Nick Vannett Gets Saints On The Scoreboard In Week 12

New Orleans Saints tight end Nick Vannett made the most of his opportunity for playing time versus the Bills in Week 12, pulling in an 11-yard catch from Trevor Siemian early in the fourth quarter. However, it is likely too little, too late, as the Saints failed to convert a subsequent two-point conversion attempt, keeping […]

Dawson Knox Scores Another Touchdown Versus Saints

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox scored his second touchdown of the night during Thursday's showdown against New Orleans. After the 25-year-old picked up his first score in the first quarter, he did it again, this time it came off a 24-yard toss from Josh Allen in the third. Knox could have had another trip […]

Stefon Diggs Scores A Third Quarter Touchdown

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Stefon Diggs helped quarterback Josh Allen get back on track in Week 12 versus New Orleans, bringing in a five-yard touchdown toss from the signal-caller in the third quarter. Fantasy managers were surely pleased, mainly since the 27-year-old had been quiet throughout the first half. Nonetheless, with another trip to the […]

Tre'Davious White Done For Week 12

Buffalo Bills cornerback Tre'Davious White (knee) won't return to the Thanksgiving matchup against the Saints. The former LSU Tiger tweaked his left knee during the second quarter and subsequently needed assistance back to the locker room for further evaluation. He appeared visibly upset after the injury occurred, which is usually never a good sign, and […]

Tre'Davious White Injured On Thursday Night

Buffalo Bills cornerback Tre'Davious White (leg) exited Thursday's matchup against the Saints. The 26-year-old appeared to tweak his left leg during the second quarter and was assisted to the locker room for further evaluation. White is one of the defensive standouts for the team and has been an integral part of its success over the […]

Dawson Knox Gets On The Board On Thursday Night

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox drew first blood during Thursday's matchup against the New Orleans Saints, bringing in a pass from Josh Allen midway through the first quarter for a seven-yard score. The 25-year-old picked up his first touchdown since Week 5 against the Chiefs, and it now brings his total to six scores […]

FanDuel NFL DFS Lineup Picks for Thanksgiving - Daily Fantasy Football

It's the best day of the year, Thanksgiving, a holiday filled with food, naps, and the National Football League. As season-long leagues begin to wind down, the DFS circuit continues to offer hope to those whose year is already over. The three-game slate starts with an old classic, the Bears versus the Lions. Both clubs, […]

Justin Fields Dealing With Cracked Ribs

Chicago Bears quarterback Justin Fields (ribs) has already been ruled out for Week 12. However, he is in danger of missing more time than initially expected. After it was believed Fields originally suffered bruised ribs during the loss to Baltimore on Sunday, subsequent imaging revealed multiple small fractures, which undoubtedly is worse news. Nonetheless, his […]

CeeDee Lamb Still In The Running To Play On Thursday

Dallas Cowboys wide receiver CeeDee Lamb (concussion) remains questionable ahead of Thursday's bout against the Raiders. The 22-year-old sustained a concussion during the Week 11 loss to the Chiefs but has reportedly been feeling good. Even better, he did practice on Wednesday, albeit limited, after sitting out on Monday and Tuesday, which keeps the door […]

Ezekiel Elliott Will Play On Thursday, Likely To Deal With Pain

Dallas Cowboys running back Ezekiel Elliott (knee) will play in Week 12 versus Las Vegas. Zeke has been dealing with a bone bruise in his knee, but his full participation at practice over the last two days was certainly good news for his fantasy managers. However, he will likely be dealing with a considerable amount […]

Mark Ingram II Has An "Uphill Battle" To Play Against Buffalo

New Orleans Saints running back Mark Ingram II (knee) remains questionable ahead of Thursday's matchup versus Buffalo. However, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, the veteran still has a chance to play, although it will be an "uphill battle." Ingram continues to deal with residual swelling, so even if he does see the field, the […]

Richaun Holmes Is Questionable On Wednesday

Sacramento Kings center Richaun Holmes (eye) is questionable against Portland. The 28-year-old was poked in the right eye during Monday's loss to Philadelphia and is now dealing with a contusion. Nonetheless, fantasy managers likely won't know Holmes' status until closer to tip-off. However, if he can't go, Chimezie Metu, Tristan Thompson, and even Marvin Bagley […]
