Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (11/3/21)

Welcome back, NBA betting brethren! Monday the Spurs let us down with a disappointing loss, but the Bulls had a huge comeback win and our New York-Toronto over hit. Unfortunately, the Spurs lost so bad they couldn't even cover in our teaser, but I am still heartened by our above-average start to the season! We […]

Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (11/1/21)

Friday was a great night for best bets as we hit three out of four bets and were only a few points away from the Cavs covering and having a clean sweep. I hate picking my own teams for bets and I should have known that Cleveland would be the team to ruin it. What […]

Friday nights from October to April are HUGE NBA nights and I am pretty hyped up for this 7-game NBA slate tonight - both for DFS contests and betting! Wednesday we had some mixed results.

It's an awesome 10-game slate of NBA action tonight and I'm back with my favorite betting picks - some data-driven picks and I always show my work so that you can start to see my process and refine your own. Monday was a success as we had the Bulls cover once again by only a […]

Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (10/25/21)

We are almost to the end of one whole week of NBA basketball this season and I have to say it was a really solid week one for me with both DFS lineups and betting. Friday's picks went 2-2 but only because the Celtics destroyed my parlay and teaser, and I should have known better […]

Hello, RotoBallers, and welcome to the first edition of Thunder Dan's NBA best bets! I started doing some betting picks last season pretty late in the year and some moderate success, especially with betting totals. This year I wanted to start on day one (well, day one for most of the teams in the league) […]

Ricky Seals-Jones Start or Sit? Week 6 Fantasy Football

I am falling in love with this play as the week rolls along. RSJ is dirt cheap and has a major opportunity to make some noise this week as this Washington-KC game could absolutely go nuclear. We saw him targeted nine times last week by Heinicke in his first start of the season, catching five […]

Keenan Allen Start or Sit? Week 6 Fantasy Football

This Chargers offense is legitimate. I had a lot of respect for the Browns defense coming into last week and Justin Herbert and Co. went out and dropped seven touchdowns on them without batting an eye. Now it was the Ekeler and Mike Williams show last week, with Allen "only" getting six catches for 75 yards on nine targets. […]

D'Andre Swift Start or Sit? Week 6 Fantasy Football

The Swift call here really sets up nicely for one of my favorite GPP stacks this week as I plan to pair Joe Burrow with some of his pass-catchers and bring it back with D'Andre. Listen, this price is a bit goofy considering the fact that Swift is averaging 18.2 DK points per game and […]

Taylor Heinicke Start or Sit? Week 6 Fantasy Football

The Washington Football team and their young QB will face a 31st-ranked DVOA pass defense this week when the Kansas City Chiefs come to town. Even if you think the Chiefs handle WFT, there's plenty of reason to think that Heinicke can put up some nice numbers here with some of the talent he has […]

Joe Burrow - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Joe is having an excellent start to his sophomore campaign and has been impressive despite coming off a major injury last season that many thought might hamper him this year. The Bengals backfield situation is a mess as Joe Mixon was just downgraded and Samaje Perine has already been ruled out. While I am sure the Bengals will still […]

Ja'Marr Chase - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Did anyone really think Chase was going to be this good this fast? There were a few analysts on him, but I think most people were taking a "wait and see" approach before investing too heavily in him. Well, I have waited and seen - and I really like what I see. He's already separated […]

2021-2022 RotoBaller NBA Staff League Draft Recap and Analysis

It's the time of year again! NBA draft season is in full effect and I was excited to participate in our RotoBaller staff league draft this week. We added some more analysts to the league this year and made it a 14-team league. We always play the standard 9-cat format on Yahoo, which is by […]

Mark Andrews - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

We finally got the eruption game from Andrews last week as he posted 11 catches for 147 yards and two scores while being targeted 13 times by Lamar Jackson on Monday night. I don't think it's chasing points this week to go back to the well on Andrews as he had already been trending up before that […]
