Isaiah Hartenstein Pulls Down 14 Rebounds In Cavaliers' Debut

Cleveland Cavaliers center Isaiah Hartenstein made his debut with his new team on Monday and was pretty impressive considering his opponent. Hartenstein took on Rudy Gobert- and struggled to just five points on 2 of 8 shooting, though he pulled down 14 rebounds and handed out seven assists while chipping in a block and a […]

Rudy Gobert Dominates The Cavaliers In Blowout Win

Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert was dominant in a 114-75 win over Cleveland on Monday night. Gobert scored 18 points with 17 boards for his second straight double-double, adding four blocks and two steals in just 28 minutes. The All-Star big man shot an impressive 8-for-10 from the charity stripe- his best mark of the […]

Richaun Holmes Adds Another Double-Double To His Tally

Sacramento Kings center Richaun Holmes continued his good month with another double-double in Monday's win over San Antonio, notching 23 points with 12 rebounds and three assists. He put in a great defensive shift as well with three blocks and one steal. Holmes shot 8-for-11 from the field and 7-for-10 at the foul line. The […]

Kristaps Porzingis Has 20 Points In 27 Minutes

Dallas Mavericks center Kristaps Porzingis was back in business on Monday, scoring 20 points in 27 minutes against OKC in a 127-106 win. He shot 9-for-15 from the field with a pair of three-pointers and notched nine rebounds, five assists, two blocks and one steal to complete his line. Porzingis was in a bit of […]

Kelly Olynyk Continues Good Start In Houston

Houston Rockets forward/center Kelly Olynyk, who produced a 16-4-4 line in his team debut with three steals, did even better in Monday's loss to Memphis, scoring a team-high 25 points on 10-for-17 shooting with nine rebounds, two assists, two blocks and a steal. He was 0-for-5 from downtown but a perfect 5-for-5 at the charity […]

Jonas Valanciunas Scores Season-High 30 Points

Memphis Grizzlies center Jonas Valanciunas became the latest big man to dominate against the Houston Rockets this season, scoring a season-high 30 points and grabbing 15 rebounds in Monday's 120-110 win. He missed only five of his 18 shots and went 4-for-6 at the foul line. This marks Valanciunas' 28th double-double of the season in […]

FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (3/30/21): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

There are only four games in the Association tonight, but there are a bunch of stars to try and cram into our lineups. Westbrook broke the slate last night. What will he do for an encore against Charlotte? The Clippers are also on the last part of a back-to-back, and they love to rest players. […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/30/21): NBA DFS Lineups

Happy Tuesday, RotoBallers! After a massive 11-game slate on Monday, the NBA leaves us with a smaller four-game schedule tonight. Team rotations are still falling into place after an active trade deadline last week, and there are ample opportunities. With only eight teams, it'll be a tighter-than-usual squeeze, but that's what makes NBA DFS so […]

Nerlens Noel Blocks Four Shots In Return To Starting Lineup

New York Knicks center Nerlens Noel put up a strong effort on both ends in his return to the starting lineup on Monday. Noel scored eight points with 11 boards while blocking four shots and recording two steals in 30 minutes of a 98-88 loss to the Heat. The 26-year-old big man had garnered several […]

Bam Adebayo Pulls Down Season-High 17 Rebounds

Miami Heat center Bam Adebayo filled up the box score in Monday's win over the Knicks, though it was his effort on the glass that made headlines. Adebayo scored 20 points and pulled down a season-high 17 rebounds. The star big man added four assists, two blocks, and a steal in 37 minutes. Adebayo has […]

Karl-Anthony Towns Leads Minnesota With 31 Points

Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns scored a team-high 31 points in Monday's narrow loss to Brooklyn, shooting 13-for-22 from the field and 4-for-8 from outside. Anthony Edwards hit some big shots near the end and supported him with 23 points and 10 rebounds. Towns added 12 rebounds with five assists and three blocks in 39 […]

Daniel Gafford Exits Early On Monday

Washington Wizards center Daniel Gafford (ankle) was forced to exit early during Monday's game against the Indiana Pacers. He was going up for a rebound and came down on Pacers' guard Edmond Sumner's foot and tweaked his ankle. It didn't look pretty and Gafford will surely have an MRI soon. He finished the game with […]

Isaiah Hartenstein Draws The Start In Cavs Debut

Cleveland Cavaliers center Isaiah Hartenstein will draw the start during his team debut against the Utah Jazz on Monday. Jarrett Allen (concussion) and Larry Nance Jr. (illness) are sidelined for this game. Hartenstein could find himself starting a few games with Allen needing to clear the league's concussion protocol before getting back on the court. […]

Clint Capela, De'Andre Hunter Questionable For Tuesday's Game

Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (hand) and forward De'Andre Hunter (knee) are questionable to suit up for Tuesday's contest against the Suns. Capela has a pair of monster double-doubles in two of his last three games- and he has yet to miss time for this injury, so he's a safe bet to suit up against […]

Hassan Whiteside Out Monday Against Spurs

Sacramento Kings center Hassan Whiteside will miss his third straight contest on Monday against San Antonio. Whiteside has been dealing with a sore knee, though it's at least a good sign that he was initially listed as questionable. His absence will mean that Richaun Holmes will continue to dominate the frontcourt touches for Sacramento, though […]

Travis d'Arnaud Ready For Opening Day

Atlanta Braves catcher Travis d'Arnaud has posted a .241/.353/.345 slash line with one homer and four RBI through 29 Grapefruit League at-bats. The 32-year-old is coming off of one of the best seasons of his career, as he recorded a monstrous .919 OPS across 44 games in 2020. d'Arnaud will bat fifth in the loaded […]

Christian Wood Remains Out Monday

Houston Rockets forward/center Christian Wood (illness) will not play Monday against the Memphis Grizzlies. This will be his second straight game missed due to a non-COVID related illness after being listed questionable. Wood's next opportunity to play will come Wednesday against the Brooklyn Nets. Kelly Olynyk got the spot start last game and played well, […]

LaMarcus Aldridge Will Not Make Nets Debut Monday

Brooklyn Nets forward/center LaMarcus Aldridge (rest) is out Monday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Aldridge recently signed with the Nets following a buyout, but has not played since March 1st and will slowly get back into game shape before making his debut. It's unclear how much of a role Aldridge will get with a crowded frontcourt, […]

Larry Nance Jr. And Taurean Prince Questionable Monday

Cleveland Cavaliers forwards Larry Nance Jr. (illness) and Taurean Prince (shoulder) are questionable to play Monday against the Utah Jazz. With Jarrett Allen (concussion) already ruled out, the Cavaliers would be very shorthanded in the frontcourt if both Prince and Nance are unable to go. Isaiah Hartenstein is set to make his Cleveland debut and […]

Mitchell Robinson Underwent Successful Surgery On Foot

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (foot) underwent successful surgery on his broken foot, but there is no timetable set for his return. An absolutely brutal break for Robinson who just returned from a broken hand only to break his foot three games later. It's safe to say Robinson will likely be done for the […]

Eric Paschall Will Miss Monday Against Bulls

Golden State Warriors forward/center Eric Paschall (wrist) has been ruled out Monday against the Chicago Bulls. Paschall just recently returned from the health and safety protocols, only to pick up a wrist injury in his first game back. Paschall will miss his sixth game out of the past seven, but his absence has not been […]

Jose Trevino To Open Season As Rangers Starting Catcher

Texas Rangers catcher Jose Trevino will open the 2021 season as the No. 1 catcher for the club but he will likely be pushed all season long by a pair of young backstops. Jonah Heim, acquired from Oakland in the offseason, and Sam Huff both have the potential to be bat-first contributors at the MLB […]

Omar Narvaez Performing Well In Spring Training

Milwaukee Brewers catcher Omar Narvaez has performed well this spring with a .290 batting average to go along with three home runs and eight RBI. Narvaez was acquired from the Mariners prior to the 2020 season, but was a major disappointment in his first year with the Brewers. The catcher hit just .176 with two […]

Sam Huff Has Powerful Future

Texas Rangers catcher Sam Huff will open the year at the alternate training site but that doesn't mean that he won't make a big impact in the majors in 2021 and beyond. Huff had a rough spring with just one hit in 12 at-bats and he also struck out six times. The 23-year-old rookie spent […]

Trent Grisham, Austin Nola To Open Year On IL

San Diego Padres outfielder Trent Grisham (hamstring) and catcher Austin Nola (finger) will start the 2021 season on the injured list, according to Kevin Acee of the San Diego Union Tribune. There had previously been some optimism that Grisham would be ready by Opening Day, but as it's gotten closer to Opening Day it has […]

Kurt Suzuki Could See Early Playing Time

Los Angeles Angels catcher Kurt Suzuki is enjoying a solid Spring Training with a just few days until the regular season begins. The veteran is slashing .300/.440/.300 in 20 at-bats and will serve as backup to incumbent starter Max Stassi. But Stassi has not exactly lit up exhibition pitching and Suzuki could see a healthy […]

Jarrett Allen Ruled Out Monday Against Jazz

Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen (head) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Jazz. Allen suffered a concussion in Friday's game with the Lakers and was forced to miss the second half of his team's back-to-back on Saturday. Allen's absence should mean more chances in the frontcourt for Larry Nance Jr., though newly-acquired […]

Victor Caratini Will Be Primary Catcher To Start Season

San Diego Padres catcher Victor Caratini will be a regular starter to begin the 2021 season. Primary backstop Austin Nola (finger) suffered a fractured finger and still cannot comfortably swing a bat, so Caratini should have plenty of early opportunities. Brought in to be the designated signal-caller for starter Yu Darvish, Caratini is a defense-first […]
