Jackson recorded 13 points with three steals and added five assists with four rebounds in 31 minutes of action. Jackson has put together an […]
Kelly Oubre Jr. Matches Career-High 26 Points In The Win
Phoenix Suns forward Kelly Oubre Jr. tied his career best of 26 points which included a putback dunk with 11.1 seconds remaining to help secure the win on Tuesday. Oubre hit an efficient nine of his 15 shots and added five rebounds with four assists and added three steals and a block in 30 minutes […]
Kawhi Leonard Picks Up Six Steals On Tuesday
Toronto Raptors shooting guard/small forward Kawhi Leonard did his work on the defensive end as he grabbed six steals with one coming in the dying seconds that led to the go-ahead slam by Serge Ibaka. Leonard was an efficient 11 of 18 shooting and scored 31 points while dishing out six assists with four rebounds […]
Pascal Siakam Secures Another Double-Double In Win
Toronto Raptors forward Pascal Siakam scored 13 points on 6-for-13 shooting while grabbing 10 rebounds with three assists and steal with a block in the win over the Hawks. He did commit four turnovers and we can expect nights when he records multiple turnovers for the young forward as he does take on a point […]
Torrey Craig Posts First Career Double-Double
Denver Nuggets small forward Torrey Craig recorded the first double-double of his career during Tuesday’s win against the Miami Heat, collecting a career-high 16 rebounds in the process. Craig has remained in the starting five even with Denver getting multiple players back from injury, and while his production has fluctuated on a nightly basis, Tuesday […]
Dillon Brooks To Miss Wednesday’s Contest
Memphis Grizzlies small forward Dillon Brooks will miss his second straight contest Wednesday versus the San Antonio Spurs due to right toe soreness. Brooks dropped 15 points in his last contest prior to being sidelined again, unable to string together a stretch where he can warrant becoming a fantasy commodity. He will have until Saturday […]
Maurice Harkless Ruled Out For Wednesday’s Game
Portland Trail Blazers small/power forward Maurice Harkless will be in street clothes for Wednesday’s contest versus the Chicago Bulls due to left knee soreness. Harkless was able to log just nine scoreless minutes in Monday’s game before being forced to the sidelines, with the fact that he was ruled out over 24 hours in advance […]
Luka Doncic Picks Up Questionable Tag For Wednesday
Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Luka Doncic has been listed as questionable for Wednesday’s game versus the Phoenix Suns due to a lower back strain. Despite picking up an injury designation, Doncic was able to practice Tuesday, which could bode well for his chances of suiting up. Doncic dropped 27 points in 35 minutes Monday versus the […]
DeMarre Carroll, Joe Harris Probable on Wednesday
Brooklyn Nets forward DeMarre Carroll (knee) and guard/forward Joe Harris (ankle) are listed as probable for Wednesday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. Both players are reportedly feeling better and are expected to play on Wednesday. Shabazz Napier and Rodions Kurucs will take a hit in value and minutes with Carroll and Harris likely returning.
Rondae Hollis-Jefferson Ruled Out on Wednesday
Brooklyn Nets forward Rondae Hollis-Jefferson (groin) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. This will be the fifth straight game that RHJ is sidelined due to a right adductor issue. DeMarre Carroll (knee) is probable for Wednesday and should significantly benefit from the loss of RHJ.
Otto Porter Will Come Off The Bench Again
Washington Wizards forward Otto Porter will come off the bench once again in Tuesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers, according to head coach Scott Brooks. It sounds like Porter will return to the starting five, but Brooks wants to see him play a little more without restrictions off the bench. Porter played well on Sunday […]
Jimmy Butler is Expected to Play on Tuesday
Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Jimmy Butler (illness) is expected to play in Tuesday's game against the Washington Wizards. Butler has missed the last two games due to an illness, but looked good during Monday's practice. Landry Shamet and Furkan Korkmaz will see reduced playing time with Butler back in the rotation.
Iman Shumpert Ruled Out on Tuesday
Sacramento Kings guard/forward Iman Shumpert (finger) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Phoenix Suns. This will be the third straight game that Shumpert has missed due to a finger issue. Bogdan Bogdanovic has started the last three games and been fantastic. He's worth using in DFS contests on Tuesday.
Jeremy Lamb Will Play on Tuesday
Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Jeremy Lamb (hamstring) will play in Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. Lamb went through shootaround and reportedly felt good afterwards. Devonte' Graham will head back to the second unit and lose basically all fantasy value. Fantasy owners should feel safe plugging Lamb in your lineups on Tuesday.
RotoBaller NBA Recap: The Clint Capela Show
Welcome to the RotoBaller NBA Recap. In this feature, we highlight three fantasy basketball takeaways from last night's slate of NBA games. Monday night featured eight games, with a clash between the Rockets and Nuggets highlighting the night.

Luka Doncic Drops 27 Points On Career-High 23 Shot Attempts
Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Luka Doncic totaled 27 points during Monday’s defeat to the Los Angeles Lakers, finishing 10-for-23 from the floor overall, the most shots he has taken in a contest during his outstanding rookie campaign. Doncic also added eight rebounds and two assists to round out his stat line, bouncing back from his six-point […]
Kyle Kuzma Struggles From Field During Victory
Los Angeles Lakers small/power forward Kyle Kuzma powered through a 4-for-20 shooting performance to finish with 13 points during Monday’s win over the Dallas Mavericks. Kuzma was making his return from a two-game absence, but while the shooting was anything but pretty, the fact that he logged 37 minutes in a strong sign ahead of […]
Brandon Ingram Drops Season-High 29 Points
Los Angeles Lakers shooting guard/small forward Brandon Ingram went off for a new season high of 29 points during Monday’s victory over the Dallas Mavericks. As has been the case with LeBron James sidelined, Ingram took the offensive initiative, finishing 12-for-21 from the field overall, with all of his shots coming inside the arc. He […]
Giannis Antetokounmpo Scores 30 Points On 30 Shots
Milwaukee Bucks guard/forward Giannis Antetokounmpo notched another 30-point game to help propel his club to victory on Monday over the Utah Jazz. Antetokounmpo connected on 13 of 30 shots and added 10 rebounds with two blocks and steal before picking up his sixth foul in 35 minutes of action. Coming off a monster 43 point […]
P.J. Tucker Drains Seven Threes On Monday
Houston Rockets forward P.J. Tucker knocked down a career-high seven threes to help secure the win over the Denver Nuggets on Tuesday. Tucker got up 11 shots from range and also added an impressive four steals with two blocks and an assist. It was a solid line from the rugged forward, but he did not […]
Jeremy Lamb is Questionable for Tuesday
Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Jeremy Lamb (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. Lamb has been dealing with a right hamstring strain that has sidelined him a few games. Devonte' Graham has been starting in his place and looks like he will continue to do that until Lamb returns.
Rudy Gay Ruled Out on Monday
San Antonio Spurs forward Rudy Gay (wrist) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Gay has been dealing with a lingering sprained left wrist since December. Davis Bertans has been playing well in the absence of Gay, so he'll be worth a look in DFS contests on Monday.
Joe Harris is Sitting Out on Monday
Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Joe Harris (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Boston Celtics. The Nets are banged up right now and are shorthanded at the forward position. Shabazz Napier and Rodions Kurucs will have decent DFS value as they will be forced into significant minutes on Monday.
DeMarre Carroll Won't Play on Monday
Brooklyn Nets forward DeMarre Carroll (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Boston Celtics. Carroll is dealing with a sore left knee and is considered day-to-day at the moment. Rodions Kurucs and Shabazz Napier offer the most upside with the Nets banged up on Monday.
Ben Simmons is Questionable for Tuesday
Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Ben Simmons (illness) is considered questionable for Tuesday's game against the Washington Wizards. Simmons was unable to practice on Monday, so it's unclear if he'll be ready by Tuesday. T.J. McConnell would have solid DFS value without Simmons in the rotation.
Jimmy Butler, Wilson Chandler Practice on Monday
Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Jimmy Butler (illness) and forward Wilson Chandler (illness) were both full participants during Monday's practice. Butler has missed the last two games, but appears on track to return on Tuesday. Landry Shamet and Furkan Korkmaz won't have much fantasy value once Butler returns. Chandler should be ready for Tuesday as well, so […]
Rodney Hood Doesn't Practice on Monday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Rodney Hood (Achilles) was unable to practice on Monday. It doesn't sound like Hood will be out too long, but he remains questionable for Tuesday's game against the Indiana Pacers. Alec Burks and Jordan Clarkson would see increased playing time without Hood. Clarkson is the better option out of the two, so […]
Dillon Brooks Ruled Out on Monday
Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Dillon Brooks (toe) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Indiana Pacers. He was listed as doubtful, but will officially sit out and be considered day-to-day with right toe soreness. Justin Holiday should soak up a majority of the minutes, but he's a risky DFS option.
Paul George Delivers Relatively Quiet Performance
Oklahoma City Thunder small forward Paul George finished Sunday’s loss to the Washington Wizards with 20 points, five assists and four rebounds, his lowest scoring output in a month. George has spoiled Thunder fans and fantasy owners alike, having gone for at least 20 points in 14 consecutive games. His 7-for-18 overall shooting performance Sunday […]
Otto Porter Drops 20 Points In Limited Minutes
Washington Wizards small/power forward Otto Porter was said to be capped in the mid-20s for minutes Sunday versus the Oklahoma City Thunder, but that didn’t stop him from delivering a 20-point performance on 7-for-17 shooting off the bench. Porter made sure to get his shots up, finishing 4-for-6 from deep, delivering his largest scoring outing […]
