Mason Plumlee Could Be Out 2-4 Weeks

New York Knicks center Enes Kanter put up another big double-double, this time totaling 17 points and 17 rebounds.

Brook Lopez Struggles In Loss To The Orlando Magic

Los Angeles Lakers center Brook Lopez struggled on Wednesday night in the 127-105 loss to the Orlando Magic. Lopez finished with only five points, one rebound and one steal to go along with 0-for-3 shooting from downtown.

Joel Embiid Posts Impressive Double-Double in Brooklyn

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid looked like the spitting image of an All-Star on Wednesday, putting up a monster double-double in Brooklyn.

Julius Randle With Efficient Line

Los Angeles Lakers forward/center Julius Randle was efficient Wednesday night in a 127-105 loss to the Orlando Magic.

Greg Monroe Has Been Bought Out

Updating a previous note, Phoenix Suns forward/center Greg Monroe has officially been bought out by the Suns.

Greg Monroe Away From The Team

Suns writer Scott Bordow reports Phoenix Suns forward/center Greg Monroe is not with the team for Wednesday night's game against the Dallas Mavericks. This could mean Monroe will be bought out by Phoenix, but the timing is odd since there is still a week left until the trade deadline. For now, expect Monroe to stay […]

FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (1/31/18): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

The Wednesday slate is lighter than normal thanks to a busy Tuesday slate. That hasn't effected the value plays thanks to several players worth highlighting who are returning from injuries and underpriced as a result. What is lacking on this slate is a lot of high priced studs, so picking the most likely players to […]

JaMychal Green is Doubtful Against Pacers

Memphis Grizzlies forward/center JaMychal Green (ankle) is doubtful to play against the Indiana Pacers on Wednesday.

Jarrett Allen Perfect From Floor Tuesday Night

Brooklyn Nets center Jarrett Allen was perfect from the floor Tuesday night, making all six of his shot attempts in a losing effort. Scoring 12 points on six shots is about as efficient as you could hope for from the big man out of Texas. Allen is never going to become a high-volume scorer or […]

Jahlil Okafor Has 13 Rebounds Versus Knicks

Brooklyn Nets center Jahlil Okafor had another promising game off the bench for the Nets on Tuesday night. He was only able to score five points, but the number that stood out for him was 13 rebounds, including three offensive rebounds.

New York Knicks center Enes Kanter exploded for a huge double-double on Tuesday against the Brooklyn Nets. He dropped 20 points on 8-for-10 shooting and grabbed 20 rebounds.

Channing Frye Provides A Scoring Punch Off the Bench

Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Channing Frye delivered a season-high 20 points on 6-for-9 shooting from the field and connected on four threes on the night that Kevin Love suffered a fracture in his left hand.

Kevin Love Breaks Hand Against Detroit

Cleveland Cavaliers forward/center Kevin Love (hand) played only five minutes before breaking his hand in Tuesday night's loss to the Detroit Pistons.
