Deandre Ayton Drops 20 Points, Falls Just Shy Of Double-Double

Phoenix Suns power forward/center Deandre Ayton has become a ubiquitous presence both in the scoring column and on the glass for his squad during February, tying a bow around those efforts during Saturday’s loss to the Golden State Warriors. Ayton finished with 20 points on 8-for-16 shooting, collecting nine rebounds and two blocked shots across […]

Dragan Bender Logs Season-High 13 Points In Near Double-Double

Golden State Warriors power forward/center Dragan Bender faced his former franchise in the Phoenix Suns on Saturday and set new season highs with 13 points and nine rebounds. In just his fourth game with the Warriors, Bender has proven himself a high upside DFS option, as his price tag has not yet adjusted for his […]

Welcome back, RotoBallers, to another edition of my favorite FanDuel plays for this 7-game Saturday night NBA slate. This slate is loaded with stars and high-priced plays so today I will be rolling out a special "pivots and value" edition of my picks instead of just listing some of the best high-priced plays. Roster construction […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/29/20): NBA DFS Lineups

A seven-game slate means we have a bit more flexibility with lineup construction, but that also means our sleeper picks need to be spot-on. There are a ton of options tonight, and even though Ricky Rubio's price is a little steep, this seems like a trap game for value plays. Jevon Carter, and a few other […]

NBA Weekly Streamers for Week 20 (Mar 2 - Mar 8)

Fantasy basketball season is in full swing. Most of us are either fighting for playoff berth/seeding, or are already in the playoffs and are in full win-now mode. These circumstances give streaming even more importance, as many players become expendable if they're not going to give us enough games next week. Their place can be […]

Tristan Thompson is Ruled Out for Saturday's Contest

Cleveland Cavaliers center Tristan Thompson (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Indiana Pacers. He has started each of the last two games with Andre Drummond (calf) sidelined for those contests. Drummond is listed as probable here, so the Cavs will take the cautious approach and rest Thompson due to a left […]

Andre Drummond is Expected to Return Versus Pacers

Cleveland Cavaliers center Andre Drummond (calf) is listed as probable for Saturday's game against the Indiana Pacers. He has missed each of the last two games due to a left calf strain. It appears Drummond is feeling well enough to get back into the starting five here. Tristan Thompson (knee) has been ruled out, so […]

Dom Nunez Blasts A Home Run On Friday Night

Colorado Rockies catcher prospect Dom Nunez hit a rocket out to right in Friday night action in Scottsdale, and there is no question that he can put a charge into a ball. He showed that during a brief stint in the majors last year when he knocked five extra-base hits in just 39 at-bats. Unfortunately, […]

Deandre Ayton Might Not Play on Saturday

Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton (hip) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Golden State Warriors. Ayton has been reliable when he's on the court, but he's been hit with injuries and a 25-game suspension this season. Aron Baynes (rib) would likely get the start and have some streaming appeal if Ayton is […]

Wendell Carter Jr. is Upgraded to Probable

Chicago Bulls center Wendell Carter Jr. (ankle) is listed as probable for Saturday's game against the New York Knicks. He was listed as questionable on Friday's injury report, but it appears Carter is feeling good enough to play here. He is expected to be on a minutes limit while he works his way back to […]

Salvador Perez Catches First Game Without Issue

Kansas City Royals catcher Salvador Perez (elbow) finally got his chance to get back behind home plate, catching his first game since September of 2018 on Friday. Perez was able to block pitches in the dirt and throw down to second without issue, and he told reporters afterward that he felt great and was excited […]

Tyson Jost Posts Two Goals Against Hurricanes

Colorado Avalanche center Tyson Jost posted his second multi-goal performance of the season in Friday's 3-2 victory against the Hurricanes. Jost's two-goal game is his second highest scoring performance of the season, falling short of the hat trick he produced on Oct. 19 against the Lightning. The 21-year-old is up to seven goals, 12 assists […]

Detroit Pistons power forward/center Christian Wood filled up the box score once again, and this time it helped his club pick up the win over the Suns on Friday.

Jonas Valanciunas Dominates The Boards

Memphis Grizzlies center Jonas Valanciunas brought the Windex on Friday when he cleaned the class to the tune of a career-high 25 rebounds in the loss to the Kings. Valanciunas also added 13 points with two blocks while even draining a triple in the 32 minutes he played. As long as the Grizzlies stay in […]

Harry Giles Continues Strong Play On Friday

Sacramento Kings power forward/center Harry Giles posted another solid line and it helped his club pick up the win over the Grizzlies on Friday. Giles started slow, but then got things going as he nailed 8-for-14 from the floor en route to 16 points while gathering five rebounds and adding a block with a steal […]

When and How Do You Target Sleepers on Draft Day?

A popular buzzword this time of year is "sleeper." Every fantasy baseball writer, podcaster, and radio analyst wants you to know why their sleeper is the one you should be targeting on draft day. Conversely, your league mates hope you've never even heard of their sleeper. As I prepared to write this article, I found […]

Fantasy Basketball Mid-Week Pickups for Week 19

Technically, it's not the halfway point of the season. That came for most teams around January. But with the All-Star break behind us, the NBA enters the latter half of the regular season, where the quality of play should pick up considerably. Teams on the bubble will continue to make a push for the playoffs […]

Jusuf Nurkic Remains Without A Timetable

Portland Trail Blazers center Jusuf Nurkic (leg, calf) is still without a timetable and it's unclear when or if he'll take the court this season. He returned to practice in late January, but suffered a strained right calf in the process. Nurkic doesn't sound too optimistic about getting on the court anytime soon. There's only […]

Serge Ibaka is Questionable Versus Hornets

Toronto Raptors center Serge Ibaka (knee) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. He is dealing with right knee soreness, so Toronto might take the cautious approach with the veteran big man. Chris Boucher and Rondae Hollis-Jefferson would see significant playing time if Ibaka is unable to play. Neither player would […]

It's another great slate of NBA DFS action tonight with a loaded mid-tier on FanDuel which is where the majority of my plays are going to come from today. There are some major question marks on this slate with several […]

Damian Jones is Available for Friday

Atlanta Hawks center Damian Jones (illness) is available for Friday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He was listed as questionable on Thursday, but it appears he's feeling good enough to play here. The Hawks are banged up, so Bruno Fernando and John Collins are really the only other guys that play center right now. He […]

Robert Williams is Cleared for Game Action

Boston Celtics center Robert Williams (hip) has been cleared to return to game action. He went through his final scan on Thursday, and everything came back clean. The Celtics are going to ease him back into action, so Williams is better left on the waiver wire in most formats. Enes Kanter and Daniel Theis could […]

Sean Murphy Expected To Play Next Week

Oakland Athletics catcher Sean Murphy (knee) will make his spring training debut on March 3, according to manager Bob Melvin. Murphy has been easing his way into playing after knee surgery last October, but the A's backstop should have plenty of spring training left to be ready for the season. Murphy hasn't played much at […]

Roberto Perez Set To Make Spring Debut Saturday

Cleveland Indians catcher Roberto Perez (ankle) is set to make his Cactus League debut Saturday, Zack Meisel of The Athletic reports. The 31-year-old underwent surgery to remove bone spurs from his right ankle in October, but the procedure was never expected to impact his availability for Opening Day. Perez took over as the Indians primary […]

Luke Maile Scratched From Lineup Friday

Pittsburgh Pirates catcher Luke Maile (hamstring) was scratched from the Grapefruit League lineup on Friday with left hamstring tightness. Maile is day-to-day. He should be fine in the long run. The 29-year-old backstop hit just .151/.205/.235 with two home runs and nine RBI in 129 plate appearances over 44 games for the Blue Jays in […]
