Al Horford Keeps Momentum In Sunday's Win

Oklahoma City Thunder center Al Horford, who had 15 points in Friday's win over the Knicks, produced another solid scoring performance on Sunday, finishing with 22 points in a 129-116 win over Brooklyn. He made three treys on seven attempts and shot 9-for-17 overall from the field. Horford's line included six rebounds, three assists, one […]

Karl-Anthony Towns Out Sunday

Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns (wrist) will not play Sunday against the San Antonio Spurs. Towns returned to action Saturday and played 37 minutes after missing a few games with a dislocated wrist, but will rest Sunday on the second night of a back-to-back. The team stressed this was expected as a part of their […]

Richaun Holmes And Buddy Hield Questionable For Monday

Sacramento Kings forward/center Richaun Holmes (ankle) and guard Buddy Hield (ankle) are both questionable Monday against the Indiana Pacers. Hield picked up the injury in Saturday night's thrashing by the Portland Trail Blazers while Holmes was a late scratch just before the game. The Kings went small Saturday without Holmes, shifting Marvin Bagley III to […]

Rudy Gobert Pulls Down 19 Rebounds, Swats Four Shots

Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert was a non-factor as a scorer in Sunday's win over the Pistons, though he found other ways to make an impact on the contest. Gobert scored just 4 points but notched a season-high 19 rebounds with four blocks and an assist in 34 minutes. The French big man has been […]

Early One-Man Mock (Round 1) - 2022 Fantasy Baseball

There is no such thing as too early when it comes to draft prep. The calendar won't flip to 2022 for another few weeks but we at RotoBaller aren't ones to sit around and wait. Mock drafts take time, so I took matters into my own hands to complete a one-man mock. For the most […]

Meyers Leonard Could Be Sidelined On Sunday

Miami Heat center Meyers Leonard (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Boston Celtics. He suffered a left shoulder strain during Saturday's game, so it wouldn't be shocking to see Leonard sit out here. Kelly Olynyk (groin) and Precious Achiuwa are ahead of Leonard on the depth chart anyway. Leonard can remain […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/10/21): NBA DFS Lineups

The NBA schedule has two games on the slate for Sunday. Did you know that only one of them has an implied point total of 225 or more? You won't have many players to choose from, but here are three tips on how to attack it. First of all, it’s important to look at the […]

FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (1/10/21): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

Happy Sunday, everyone. The "Main Slate" has six games on the horizon, complete with some storylines and situations that may open the door for tons of value opportunities. The Celtics, much like the 76ers on Saturday, will be shorthanded against the Miami Heat due to the league's health and safety protocols relating to COVID-19. While […]

Robin Lopez (C, WAS) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 2% of leagues ANALYSIS: On Sunday, it was announced that Washington Wizards center Thomas Bryant would miss the rest of the season with a torn ACL. A difficult season for the Wizards is getting more difficult, as a player who was expected to be part of the […]

Phillies More Unlikely To Re-Sign J.T. Realmuto?

With every addition that the Mets and Braves make to their already strong rosters in the National League East, the thought of the Philadelphia Phillies making the postseason in the short term becomes less realistic, which in turn could make re-signing catcher J.T. Realmuto less likely. Realmuto will turn 30 years old in March and […]

Nikola Vucevic Dominates En Route To 30-Point Double-Double

Orlando Magic center Nikola Vucevic notched his seventh double-double of the year during Saturday's loss to Dallas, tying his season high in scoring with 30 points to go along with 15 rebounds. With the Magic playing without Evan Fournier (back) and Markelle Fultz (knee), additional shot opportunities have been opened up, especially among the starting […]

Enes Kanter Records Double-Double Against Kings

Portland Trail Blazer center Enes Kanter scored 11 points on 4-for-9 shooting and added 15 rebounds in Saturday's win over the Sacramento Kings. He didn't record any other stats outside of turnovers and fouls. In that way, it was a classic Kanter performance: he scores, he rebounds, and he adds virtually nothing else for fantasy […]

Andre Drummond Compiles Season-High 24 Boards In Defeat

Cleveland Cavaliers center Andre Drummond posted his 10th consecutive double-double to kick off the 2020-21 year versus Milwaukee on Saturday, amassing a whopping 26 points and season-high 24 rebounds during the loss. With Cleveland tremendously short-handed in the back court due to a myriad  of injuries, Drummond has continued to chug along with consistent production, […]

Karl-Anthony Towns Records Double-Double In Return

Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns recorded 25 points, 13 rebounds, four assists, and three blocks in 37 minutes during Saturday's overtime loss to the Spurs. Towns returned from a six-game absence due to a wrist injury and stuffed the stat sheet. With a large role on this team, Towns has gotten the production in the […]

Thomas Bryant Will Miss Remainder Of Saturday’s Game

Washington Wizards center Thomas Bryant (knee) has been ruled inactive for the rest of Saturday's contest versus Miami due to a left knee injury that he sustained during the first quarter. Bryant played just two minutes before departing, not making a contribution to the stat sheet. Robin Lopez figures to see an increased role with […]

Karl-Anthony Towns Gets Green Light To Return Saturday

Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns (wrist) will make his return to action for Saturday's contest versus San Antonio. Towns has missed the past six games due to a wrist injury, which will keep his minutes limited. While the playing time cap hurts his DFS appeal, season-long managers can slot him back into lineups immediately, as […]

LeBron James, Anthony Davis Questionable To Play Sunday

Los Angeles Lakers point guard/small forward LeBron James (ankle) and power forward/center Anthony Davis (adductor) headline the team's injury report with questionable tags for Sunday's game versus Houston. James has consistently been listed as questionable ever since turning his left ankle earlier in the season, while Davis is looking to rejoin the mix after missing […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Unavailable To Play Saturday

Milwaukee Bucks power forward/center Giannis Antetokounmpo (back) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Cavaliers as he battles back spasms. Antetokounmpo's absence opens up the Bucks as a DFS upside fun house, specifically for Khris Middleton and Jrue Holiday, who figure to see larger roles in the offense. The absence is the first […]

Dwight Howard Delivers Double-Double In Loss

Philadelphia 76ers center Dwight Howard got the start with Joel Embiid (back) out of the lineup and made the most of the opportunity. Howard recorded his first double-double of the season, with a season-high 11 points. Fellow center Tony Bradley actually played the same amount of minutes and pulled down more boards, but Howard has […]

Nikola Jokic Dishes Out 12 Assists In Victory

Denver Nuggets center Nikola Jokic flirted with a triple-double in a 115-103 win over the 76ers. Jokic scored 15 points with 12 assists and nine rebounds in just 29 minutes. It was a smaller line than his fantasy managers are used to, though still a fruitful one for fantasy purposes. Besides, Jokic wasn't needed much […]

Cubs Continue To Listen On Kris Bryant, Willson Contreras

The Chicago Cubs continue to listen to trade offers for third baseman Kris Bryant and catcher Willson Contreras, despite sending starting pitcher Yu Darvish to the Padres and clearing $21 million from the 2021 payroll. The Los Angeles Angels make sense as a trade partner for Contreras due to manager Joe Maddon's familiarity with the […]

Kelly Olynyk (PF/C, MIA) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 28% of leagues ANALYSIS: Kelly Olynyk has carved out enough of a role in the Miami Heat frontcourt to be playing a career-high 25.2 minutes per game, and while Maurice Harkless could eat into those minutes upon his return, Olynyk has likely established his presence in the […]

Taj Gibson (PF/C, NYK): Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 1% of leagues ANALYSIS: The ultimate under-the-radar addition to your squad, folks. The Knicks just announced that they have waived Omari Spellman to make room for newly signed Taj Gibson. Both parties came to an agreement after not reaching one last November, so it looks like two […]

Robert Williams (C, BOS): Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 28% of leagues ANALYSIS: Robert Williams is still a ways away from becoming a Jaylen Brown-caliber player, sure, but as many voices as are calling for Jaylen to get more recognition than he usually gets are also claiming Boston to play Williams for longer stretches of minutes […]
