NBA DFS Risers/Fallers for Week 10

Player values are constantly moving targets in daily leagues. A high profile player can put together a couple of big games and see his price tag skyrocket. Likewise, a couple of bad games can lead a player's stock to plummet. The correlation isn't always immediate, leading to some discrepancies in value. Savvy DFS players can […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (12/25/16): NBA DFS Advice

There wasn't a slate yesterday, but we have games throughout the day to keep us business during Christmas. There are plenty of great options, but it's somewhat tough to find safe, cheap players at this point. At least we can have some fun during the holidays. Happy holidays! In this article, I will be providing […]

NBA Waiver Wire: Deeper League Pickups (Week 9)

The deeper a fantasy league, the harder it is to hit a winner with your last few picks. It is also harder to find decent help from the waiver wire if your late round picks don't do you justice. If you picked up a few stinkers, don't lose hope just yet. I will try to […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (12/23/16): NBA DFS Advice

We have a huge slate tonight, as the NBA is preparing for Christmas. That means we have a ton of great options for varying price tags. It's always interesting to see whether people like to use a scrubs and stars lineup or a lineup filled with moderately priced players. Both options seem feasible tonight. In […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (12/22/16): NBA DFS Advice

Another small Thursday slate means limited options beyond the elite players. Hassan Whiteside ($9,200) is essentially a lock to terrorize the Lakers, so if you are able to fit him into your lineup, by all means do so. Additionally, Stephen Curry ($8,100) and Kevin Durant ($9,900) are likely to torch the hapless Nets, but in […]

Marreese Speights (PF/C, LAC) - NBA Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 21% Yahoo! ANALYSIS: Blake Griffin will out for 3-6 weeks as he undergoes a knee procedure, so Marreese Speights will see a bump in minutes and production.

BALLER MOVE: Stream in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 11% Yahoo! ANALYSIS: Boston's opponents are averaging 5.4 blocks per game.

NBA Bench Risers: Waiver Wire Sleepers for Fantasy Basketball (Week 9)

NBA teams have a multitude of players coming off the bench, each with a unique role to fill. As a fantasy owner, you need to decide which of those players can contribute across multiple categories and have the potential to make the most of their time on the court. To find bench players that can contribute more than […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (12/21/16): NBA DFS Advice

Eight games make up Wednesday night's slate. There are several big money options on the card, including a big man out of Sacramento that recently dropped over 80 fantasy points despite spitting his mouth guard at the opposing bench. Classy. Let's see who can join the nice list tonight. In this article, I will be providing you […]

NBA Waiver Wire (Week 9): H2H Offensive Category Streamers

It's never too early to start streaming. Whether you have an opening due to an injury, you auction-drafted a crew of stars and scrubs, or you just didn't bother putting any effort into your last couple draft picks, you probably have a player or two on your team who isn't must-own. You're better off using […]

NBA Waiver Wire (Week 9): H2H Defensive Category Streamers

This week's streamers will be a little different.  Since nearly all NBA teams play on Friday, you'll have no trouble filling your lineup with existing rostered players.  Meanwhile, there are no games on Christmas Eve Saturday.  That means 100% of the streaming value comes from who's playing in a good Christmas Day matchup.  So that's […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 41% Yahoo! ANALYSIS: Courtney Lee is a starter for the Knicks, playing a consistent 30 minutes per night.

Tim Hardaway Jr (SG/SF, ATL) - NBA Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 14% Yahoo! ANALYSIS: The Atlanta Hawks have a deep rotation at the two and three positions with Kyle Korver, Kent Bazemore, Thabo Sefolosha, Tim Hardaway Jr. and even Malcolm Delaney all fighting for minutes. Hardaway is playing pretty well lately. In his lasts five games, he […]

Larry Nance Jr (PF, LAL) - NBA Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12- and 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 23% Yahoo! ANALYSIS: Larry Nance Jr. has become a big part of the young Lakers rotation, but he is still the backup power forward behind Julius Randle, and is sitting on so many waiver wires as a result. Nance is a decent contributor to any […]

Cody Zeller (PF/C, CHA) - NBA Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10- and 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 48% Yahoo! ANALYSIS: Although the Hornets' frontcourt is crowded with Roy Hibbert, Frank Kaminsky and Spencer Hawes all in the mix, Cody Zeller made room for himself by playing pretty well. With Hibbert playing just 16 minutes per game and Hawes sitting out four of […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (12/19/16): NBA DFS Advice

We have a small five game slate for the NBA tonight to start off the week. There aren't a ton of options out there tonight, but some solid options and looks to be better cash options rather than GPP plays. But, I'll give you a spotlight of some players that are in good spots to […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (12/18/16): NBA DFS Advice

Sunday is the day for football, but we have a basketball slate that can be played tonight. That means we need some recommendations, right!? Keep in mind, it's a bit of a short slate, which means some guys that are generally tournament only options can also be used in cash games tonight. In this article, […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (12/17/16): NBA DFS Advice

After a huge Friday slate, we have to settle for a smaller Saturday slate. There is one extra game if you're looking to play with the early game, but I would recommend avoiding that, as Russell Westbrook hasn't been playing well enough to use, but it's only a matter of time before he goes off […]

NBA Waiver Wire: Deeper League Pickups (Week 8)

The deeper a fantasy league, the harder it is to hit a winner with your last few picks. It is also harder to find decent help from the waiver wire if your late round picks don't do you justice. If you picked up a few stinkers, don't lose hope just yet. I will try to […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (12/16/16): NBA DFS Advice

There are all types of great plays on this slate, as there are double digit games. We have multiple elite options to go along with mid-priced players and salary relief plays, as well. More options will continue to come out as injuries are announced, and tonight should be a fun, high scoring slate. In this […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (12/15/16): NBA DFS Advice

Thursday's five-game slate promises several high-scoring affairs, as eight of the 10 teams scheduled to play fall in the bottom half in opponent's points per game. It also offers a lot of parity, with only one player (Anthony Davis) demanding more than $10,000. Sure, Stephen Curry, Kevin Durant or both could go off for 40 points […]
