Deep Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Adds (Week 13)
If you haven't noticed, Zach LaVine has taken over these previous two weeks. This isn't to overshadow the production of DeMar DeRozan, Jaren Jackson Jr., or Kyrie Irving's spectacular return, but it should be noted that LaVine is helping owners in every category aside from rebounding and turnovers. The turnovers are a given seeing his […]

Seven games total tonight, but only six on the main slate. With so few games, you have to throw common strategy out the window and take every factor into account. With fewer available options, you are going to see the same players picked throughout the night and failing to roster the guys that go off […]

With Paul George already being listed as out for the Clippers game against the Warriors, look for the Los Angeles bench to pick up the slack like they usually do. Players like Landry Shamet, Maurice Harkless, JaMychal Green, and Rodney McGruder all have increased upside with George listed as out and even Kawhi Leonard is […]

Only four games on tonights slate and precision is a must. Prices and value won't matter as much, so we need to roster the top sources of production if we want to cash out. The big story surrounding tonight is Russell Westbrook's return to Oklahoma City. Even though this is the second night of a […]

Every week we come back to the same problem. Why are these players doing well and my players doing so bad. Luckily, you aren't alone and there are always going to be surprises, especially at this point in the season. Last week, I touched on the importance of the All-Star break and how the best […]

There are nine games on the slate and like usual, the theme is value. It's always nice when those low-end players hit, but nothing is sweeter than a $3,000 player going off for 44 FPTS with Giannis Antetokounmpo, Brandon Ingram, and Buddy Hield still left to play. There is risk with every single player, but […]

Jake King-Finnen 5 years agoNBA DFS Prop Picks for 1/1/20 - Monkey Knife Fight
With just a four-game slate this Wednesday, we are pretty limited with our options. Looking over some of the props for tonight and you'll see a ton of action for the Phoenix Suns - Los Angeles Lakers contest and rightfully so. Even with the Lakers defense, both teams score a ton of points and don't […]

Quite a few players have been making a name for themselves during late-December, so make sure you are taking advantage of injuries and ideal streamer plays. For example, Jordan McLaughlin of the Minnesota Timberwolves has already been assigned to the G-League, but that's still 19 points at the start of the week with little to […]

Let's be honest with ourselves here, some of these games are going to be frustrating. This part of the season is when the NBA is at it's least predictable...most unpredictable....you get what I'm saying, it's hard to predict. Regardless, it's not like we are lost with no bearing of how these games are going to […]

Yesterday started slowly, but just like everyone expected, it picked up with the Rockets-Warriors game. Fortunately for us, we get a late Christmas present with six games and Luka Doncic getting updated from out to questionable. It doesn't mean he will automatically play, but it's a great sign for the Mavericks. If he does miss […]

We are officially in Week 10 which means I can start saying that the season is coming to end to help sell my picks. Not the smartest idea to out myself like that, but it's the truth. The earlier you can forget about the regular season and start focusing on playoffs the better. We will […]

With seven games on the main slate, we have a much higher chance of having some repeating lineups, regardless, there is no real reason to fade anyone because of ownership rates. We need to play the most productive players tonight and since some of these games are lined up to be very high scoring, do […]

With a 10-game slate, it's easy to get carried away focusing on the same names. It's hard to throw around risk when you know there is a safe, low-priced player out there ready to make and break every lineup. With that, expect lower-priced players with either minimized risk or maximized upside. In this article, I […]

Another small, four-game slate this Thursday, but this week the games are particularly interesting. Two games stick out and you know the games I'm talking about. With these teams, we need to find the most productive players in each game, which will be some of the top tier candidates. You will need to find a […]

Two things I wanted to address in this intro and they both revolve around the same narrative. The Suns have been pretty spectacular given they lost on of their better players early in the season, but that suspension is over and is going to immediately impact fantasy scoring. While Deandre Ayton controls the paint like […]

Seven game slates lead to some of the best nights because they offer enough variance to keep it interesting, but you won't run into all the same dopes running the same lineup. As much as everyone wants to win, playing the same lineup hurt your chances and it's always better to have a little bit […]

James Harden versus the Magic. James Harden versus the Magic? James Harden. Versus. The Magic. I would have continued this train of thought type of thing, but I felt it was cringeworthy enough. Even at his price, you have to go Harden tonight. He's breaking records and aside from Luka Doncic, no other player has […]

We had a pretty busy Wednesday night so it makes sense things tone down Thursday. Just looking over every game has me excited for some of the potential match ups. These intros really mess me up because I want to just start listing players but the writer side of me needs to keep the content […]

Immediately upon Kyle Lowry's return to the starting lineup, Fred Vanvleet went down with an injury that looks like it will keep him out for at least two weeks. Since most people were concerned about how Lowry will impact VanVleet production, it's pretty clear now. Outside of the Raptors, there is one player that has […]

There are five total games tomorrow. but only four on the main slate. While Anthony Davis may have stolen the show in terms of production, the big news from yesterday was the firing of David Fizdale. That decision is going to have immediate implications as the Knicks take on the Pacers at home, so look […]

With a 10-game slate Friday night, only the Nuggets and Wizards also played Thursday, so while I'd suggest picking against the Wizards, there is no real reason to target the Nuggets. There will be plenty of value to choose from on the Wizards roster but be extremely wary. Players like Ish Smith, who is extremely […]

After a 10-game Wednesday night, we only have four games for Thursday. As is the case with most small slates, utilizing all of your salary tonight will take a back seat to simply finding the players that will produce the most. Looking at the slate as a whole, we have the teams we want playing […]

We have 10 games tonight, and while I tried to find props that weren't just points, my safest bets turned out to be revolving around points. I won't let gambler's fallacy sway me in making some of these picks so it looks like you're stuck with what I chose. Regardless, all these picks are lined […]
