Jrue Holiday Records Double-Double Against Detroit

New Orleans Pelicans point guard Jrue Holiday played a key role in his team's Monday night win over the Detroit Pistons, scoring 21 points on 8-for-16 shooting and also dishing out 12 assists. Holiday had three rebounds and a pair of steals as well. He's now scored 20 or more points in three of his […]

T.J. McConnell has Triple-Double and Six Steals

Philadelphia 76ers point guard T.J. McConnell got the crowd going as he posted a triple-double and led the Sixers to their fourth straight win. He shot 5-for-11 from the field for 10 points to go with 10 rebounds and 11 assists, but the cherry on top was the six steals. McConnell is a multi-category contributor, […]

Dejounte Murray Returns to Action With a 12-Point Effort

San Antonio Spurs point guard Dejounte Murray (ankle) was back on the floor on Monday against Utah after missing one game, scoring 12 points on 6-for-14 shooting. He logged 29 minutes and looked fine, as he also recorded four rebounds, four assists and one steal. Murray has cooled off a bit after his great start […]

Elfrid Payton Erupts For 29 Points

Phoenix Suns point guard Elfrid Payton was superb Monday, notching 29 points, eight boards and five dimes on 11 of 18 shooting. He was the only Suns player to have it going the entire night, and it's safe to say he's enjoying life in a Suns uniform. He won't be this good when Devin Booker […]

Stephen Curry Flirts With Triple-Double

Golden State Warriors point guard Stephen Curry flirted around and missed a triple-double, scoring 22 points to go along with nine boards and seven assists. The sweet-stroking marksman has played just 29.5 minutes over the past three games but is still putting up early-round numbers despite the reduced minutes. The Warriors have been blowing out […]

Jarrett Jack Posts 11 Points with Not Much Else

New York Knicks point guard Jarrett Jack was the most effective player at his position on Monday, scoring 11 points on 3-for-5 shooting, with one three-pointer made against Philly. Jack's only other positive stat in this one was one lonely rebound. In contrast, he gave owners three turnovers in his 17 minutes. Jack is now […]

Jerian Grant Plays Well Against Magic

Chicago Bulls guard Jerian Grant played well in the 105-101 win over the visiting Orlando Magic. Grant started off hot, but cooled off as the game progressed, finishing the night with 14 points on 6-for-9 shooting from the field in addition to dishing out seven assists and pulling down six boards. Grant has played well […]

Spencer Dinwiddie Close To Double-Double Monday

Brooklyn Nets point guard Spencer Dinwiddie fell just short of a double-double Monday. Dinwiddie scored 13 points while also adding eight assists to his tally. Dinwiddie has been a diamond in the rough for Sean Marks and Kenny Atkinson, as has the looks of a building block for the future. In fantasy basketball, he figures to continue […]

Jameer Nelson Scores 12 Points Against New Orleans

Detroit Pistons guard Jameer Nelson played relatively well for his new team on Monday night. Nelson came off of the bench and played 20 minutes in the 118-103 loss to the Pelicans, finishing the contest with 12 points on 5-for-12 shooting from the field and 1-for-6 from deep. Nelson has received a generous amount of […]

D'Angelo Russell Chips In 16 Points Off Bench Monday

Brooklyn Nets point guard D'Angelo Russell continued his strong play Monday night despite his continued role off the bench. Russell has slowly seen his minutes increase, as he is getting closer and closer to 100 percent after a long layoff from knee surgery. Nets fans are hoping to see Russell inserted into the starting lineup […]

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on 2/12/18. These DFS lineup picks can vary from higher-priced players […]

Dejounte Murray is Questionable on Monday

San Antonio Spurs point guard Dejounte Murray (ankle) is questionable for Monday's game against the Utah Jazz. Murray did not play in the loss to the Warriors on Saturday. Both Murray and Tony Parker (back) were forced to miss Saturday's game and are questionable for Monday. Patty Mills is expected to start if one or […]

Ricky Rubio is Questionable Monday

Utah Jazz point guard Ricky Rubio (hip) is questionable for Monday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Rubio did not play in Sunday's victory over the Blazers. Donovan Mitchell and Joe Ingles will handle the ball more if Rubio is forced to miss another game. Backup point guard Raul Neto is expected to see increased […]

Tony Parker Questionable on Monday

San Antonio Spurs point guard Tony Parker (back) is questionable for Monday's game against the Utah Jazz. Parker did not play in Saturday's loss to the Golden State Warriors. The All-Star break is just a couple of days away, so the Spurs may elect to hold Parker out until after the break. More information should […]

Tyler Ulis is Questionable on Monday

Phoenix Suns point guard Tyler Ulis (back) is questionable for Monday's game against the Golden State Warriors. He missed Saturday's game against Denver and was limited at practice on Sunday. Elfrid Payton is expected to start and see most of the playing time at the point guard spot. When healthy, Ulis will battle Josh Gray […]

Devin Booker Out Against Warriors

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (hip) has been ruled out of Monday's game against the Golden State Warriors. He is still unable to turn without pain, but is hopeful of playing on Wednesday against Utah. It is safe to assume the Suns are going to hold Booker out until after the All-Star break. Elfrid Payton […]

Kris Dunn Ruled Out Monday

Chicago Bulls guard Kris Dunn (concussion) will not play against the Orlando Magic on Monday. He cleared concussion protocol a few days ago, but has not played since Jan. 17. The Bulls may elect to hold Dunn out until after the All-Star break, so he can get more conditioning and practice done. Jerian Grant is […]

Jarrett Jack is Losing Minutes

New York Knicks guard Jarrett Jack is expected to lose minutes after the All-Star break. Head coach Jeff Hornacek said he'll likely make a lineup change after the break. "When we bring in another point guard and young kid in Emmanuel, we have to look at things," Hornacek said. Jack played just eight minutes in […]

Milos Teodosic Will Play Monday

Los Angeles Clippers guard Milos Teodosic (foot) will play against the Brooklyn Nets on Monday. He has missed the last two games but did get some work in on Sunday. He is expected to see his normal amount of minutes without any limits. The Nets have allowed the fifth most points to point guards this […]

Dennis Smith Jr. Posts New Career-High in Assists

Dallas Mavericks point guard Dennis Smith Jr. recorded a double-double on Sunday against Houston with 16 points and a new career-high 11 assists. Smith had 10 assists in his NBA debut back in October, but he's averaged just five dimes during his rookie season, so it was great to see the ball movement by him. Maybe […]

Yogi Ferrell Leads Dallas in Scoring Against Houston

Dallas Mavericks guard Yogi Ferrell made his 17th start of the season on Sunday with multiple players out, and had a really good game, leading the team in scoring with 20 points. He shot 7-for-14 from the field and made half of his eight triple attempts, while adding five rebounds and three steals to his […]

De'Aaron Fox Puts up a Solid Line

Sacramento Kings guard De'Aaron Fox had an impressive outing against a solid Minnesota back court in a 111-106 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. Fox put up 23 points to go with two assists, two rebounds and three steals, but he could not take care of the ball, coughing it up five times. Fox has had […]

Chris Paul Barely Misses Triple-Double Against Mavericks

Houston Rockets point guard Chris Paul had a big night for the Rockets in their Sunday win over the Dallas Mavericks, finishing with 25 points on 9-for-15 shooting. The veteran guard also grabbed eight rebounds and had nine assists. Paul also recorded three steals. Houston plays Minnesota on Tuesday in what should be a high-scoring […]

Terry Rozier Scores 21 Points In 34 Minutes

Boston Celtics point guard Terry Rozier had a nice night despite his team’s tough loss against the Cavs on Sunday. He scored 21 points while adding nine rebounds, five assists and a block to his stat line. Rozier has been one of the most effective bench players in the league and clearly has his coach’s […]

Kyrie Irving Struggles From Deep in Loss to Cavs

Boston Celtics point guard Kyrie Irving fell to his former team on Sunday despite the big night for Celtics legend Paul Pierce, as he had his jersey retired. The revamped Cavs lineup shut down a struggling Celtics offense. Irving scored 18 points but shot only 1-for-7 from downtown. He dished five assists but was quiet […]

Jordan Clarkson Shines In First Game As Cavalier

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Jordan Clarkson started his Cavalier career with a bang. He scored 17 points on 11 shots and has claimed the throne as a bench spark plug. He was doing this for the Los Angeles Lakers, and owners will benefit now that he is playing in the East. Clarkson is known for being a […]

George Hill Has Underwhelming Debut

Cleveland Cavaliers guard George Hill scored 12 points in his debut win over the Celtics and left owners hoping for more. Granted, this is a point guard coming to a new team, and he will need a few games to assimilate. Hill is still known for his shooting and defense -- not the best attributes […]

Dennis Schroder Continues to Knock Shots Down

Atlanta Hawks point guard Dennis Schroder, who has never been known to shoot efficiently, has strung together two straight games -- and three of the last four -- with a 50 percent or greater field goal percentage. Schroder added 23 points, three rebounds, seven assists and two steals in the Hawks two-point victory over the […]

Kyle Lowry Scores 12 Points With Seven Assists in Charlotte

Toronto Raptors point guard Kyle Lowry had a solid outing in Buzz City on Sunday, scoring 12 points on a decent 4-for-9 shooting, including four three-pointers in his 27 minutes.
