Los Angeles Lakers small forward/power forward Kyle Kuzma scored 22 points, grabbed nine rebounds and five assists along with one turnover in Wednesday's victory over the Spurs. He was 7-for-19 from the field, 3-for-9 from beyond the arc, and 5-for-7 from the free throw line. It was his fourth game in the last six outings […]

Jaylen Brown Will Play on Thursday

Boston Celtics guard/forward Jaylen Brown (tailbone) will play in Thursday's contest. Brown is no longer on the injury report and has been able to fully practice the last two days. Brown is expected to come off the bench, but he'll battle red-hot Gordon Hayward for playing time. Marcus Smart will lose some value with Brown […]

David Nwaba Remains Sidelined For Friday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward David Nwaba (knee) will remain sidelined for Friday's game against the Sacramento Kings. This will be Nwaba's seventh straight game sidelined. It doesn't seem like he's close because the Cavs continue to rule him out a full day in advance. At this point Nwaba belongs on the waiver wire in all formats […]

Rotoballer NBA Recap: The Stars Align

Welcome to the RotoBaller NBA recap. In this feature, we highlight three fantasy basketball takeaways from the previous night's slate of NBA games.

Paul George Scores 47 Points Against Nets

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Paul George was on fire in Wednesday's win over the Brooklyn Nets, finishing with 47 points on 15-for-27 shooting and also adding in 15 rebounds and four assists. Brooklyn didn't have an answer for George, who set a season-high in points and was just one point off his best career mark. […]

Danilo Gallinari Scores 17 Points In Defeat

Los Angeles Clippers small forward Danilo Gallinari finished with 17 points during Wednesday’s loss to the Memphis Grizzlies. Gallinari knocked down a trio of triples, but scuffled from the field overall, finishing 5-for-15. Irrespective of that, 2018-19 has been a renaissance season for Gallinari, who is on pace for new career highs in three-point percentage […]

Kyle Anderson Contributes Across Stat Sheet

Memphis Grizzlies point guard/small forward Kyle Anderson delivered a strong showing during Wednesday’s win over the Los Angeles Clippers, finishing with seven points, seven rebounds and six assists in 28 minutes. It marks the third straight game in which Anderson saw fewer than 30 minutes, so that’s something to keep an eye on, but it […]

Terrence Ross Provides 17 Points Off The Bench

Orlando Magic guard/forward Terrence Ross once again led the team's bench mob on Wednesday, scoring 17 points on 6-for-12 shooting against Denver. He finished 3-for-9 from deep and sank both attempts from the line. Ross has been a good source for points all year and he's done especially well in recent games, averaging 19 points […]

Harrison Barnes Pours In 16 Points In 24 Minutes

Dallas Mavericks small forward Harrison Barnes logged just 24 minutes due to the nature of Wednesday’s blowout loss, but he made sure to still fill the scoring column, finishing with 16 points on 5-for-13 shooting, including three made threes in nine attempts from deep. His night was capped by his lack of contributions in other […]

Luka Doncic Scuffles From Field In Loss

Dallas Mavericks point guard/small forward Luka Doncic was held to 2-for-8 shooting overall in Wednesday’s loss to the New Orleans Pelicans. Doncic finished with eight points, six assists and four rebounds in a season-low 22 minutes. His performance marks just his second single-digit scoring performance, albeit his second in his last three games. Doncic missed […]

Juan Hernangomez Scores 14 Points In Wednesday's Win

Denver Nuggets forward Juan Hernangomez missed only two of his eight shots -- both from three-point range -- on Wednesday, finishing with 14 points. He also had four rebounds, two assists and one steal in 37 minutes on the floor. Hernangomez has become a solid part of Denver's starting unit, and his minutes against Orlando […]

E'Twaun Moore Makes First Appearance Off Bench

New Orleans Pelicans shooting guard/small forward E'Twaun Moore started each of the first 24 games that he appeared in this season, but found himself shifted to the bench for Wednesday’s win over the Dallas Mavericks. Having averaged 6.8 points per game over his previous four contests coming into the night, Moore snapped that spell with […]

Darius Miller Drills Season-High Four Threes Off Bench

New Orleans Pelicans shooting guard/small forward Darius Miller knocked down a quartet of triples during Wednesday’s win over the Dallas Mavericks, finishing with 12 points in 26 minutes. It marks the third consecutive game in double figures for Miller, who has seemingly found his stroke and role in the rotation. Unfortunately, he offers very little […]

Otto Porter Plays 43 Minutes On Wednesday

Washington Wizards forward Otto Porter played 43 minutes on Wednesday, recording 20 points, 11 rebounds, five assists, one steal, two threes and six turnovers on 9-for-19 shooting from the floor. After a slow start to the season that was brought on by a toe injury, Porter Jr. has been starting to pick up the pace in […]

Kelly Oubre Jr. Records Another Solid Game

Washington Wizards forward Kelly Oubre Jr. posted his second straight game of quality production, recording 19 points, five rebounds, three steals and two three-pointers in Wednesday's 131-117 road victory over the Atlanta Hawks. Oubre Jr. has been a steady producer this season, averaging 12.3 points to go along with 4.5 rebounds and 1.5 threes. Unfortunately, […]

Kent Bazemore Rejoins Starting Lineup

Atlanta Hawks guard/forward Kent Bazemore moved back into the starting lineup on Wednesday versus the Washington Wizards, recording 22 points, two rebounds, six assists, four steals, one block and two three-pointers. It was a very productive all-around game for the 29-year-old, who finds himself reinserted back into the starting lineup because of Taurean Prince (ankle) […]

Rudy Gay Scores Season High 31 Points Against Lakers

San Antonio Spurs forward Rudy Gay had a big night Wednesday against the Lakers, going for 31 points, seven rebounds and two assists while going 12-for-21 from the floor. The 31 points were a season high. Gay has been streaky lately, only scoring in double figures once in the last five games. He is a […]

Stanley Johnson Has Dreadful Shooting Night

How Detroit Pistons small/power forward Stanley Johnson’s night wound up is likely determined by the format in which he was rostered. If field-goal percentage didn’t factor in, his seven-point, nine-rebound evening was standard fare; but his 3-for-16 shooting performance, including 1-for-8 from deep, made for a brutal evening for some. It marks the second time […]

Tony Snell Draws First Start Of Season

Milwaukee Bucks shooting guard/small forward Tony Snell entered the starting lineup for the first time this season during Wednesday’s win over the Detroit Pistons due to the absence of Khris Middleton. Not known for his offensive prowess, Snell delivered 11 points -- seven of which came on free throws -- to go along with seven […]

Giannis Antetokounmpo Ties Season Low With 15 Points

Milwaukee Bucks small forward Giannis Antetokounmpo scored just 15 points during Wednesday’s win over the Detroit Pistons, delivering a rare clunker by his enormously high fantasy standards. Antetokounmpo logged just 26 minutes due to the nature of the Milwaukee win, which limited him to eight rebounds and five assists, while also turning the ball over […]

Nicolas Batum Delivers Vintage Performance

Charlotte Hornets shooting guard/small forward Nicolas Batum delivered arguably his best performance of 2018-19 on Wednesday against the Minnesota Timberwolves, finishing with 18 points to go along with eight assists and seven rebounds. Batum knocked down three triples in a game for the first time since Oct. 30, having combined to make three threes over […]

Michael Kidd-Gilchrist Draws First Start Of Year

Charlotte Hornets small/power forward Michael Kidd-Gilchrist was inserted into the starting lineup for the first time this season during Wednesday’s loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves. With Marvin Williams (shoulder) on the shelf, head coach James Borrego opted for the 25-year-old Kidd-Gilchrist to shift in off the bench. He didn’t see a huge boost in minutes […]

Robert Covington Scores 17 Points In Victory

Minnesota Timberwolves small/power forward Robert Covington finished Wednesday’s win over the Charlotte Hornets with 17 points on 6-for-9 shooting, adding six rebounds and two steals. Since joining Minnesota, Covington has become a steady fantasy asset that should be owned in nearly every format. He draws a favorable match-up against the Portland Trail Blazers on Saturday, […]

Andrew Wiggins Scores Season-High 26 Points

Minnesota Timberwolves shooting guard/small forward Andrew Wiggins finally awoke from his slumber Wednesday against the Charlotte Hornets, scoring a season-high 26 points on 11-for-19 shooting. It’s the first time that Wiggins has eclipsed the 20-point mark since Nov. 16, having averaged just 11.3 points per game over his last eight contests. It was an all-around […]

Kevin Durant Flirts With Triple-Double In Cleveland

Golden State Warriors forward Kevin Durant posted a typical line, but took a back seat to teammate Stephen Curry in the win over the Cleveland Cavaliers Wednesday night. Durant posted 25 points on 9-for-16 shooting, 10 rebounds, nine assists, four three-pointers, two blocks and a steal in 34 minutes. Durant has "regressed" in a sense […]

Cedi Osman Finds Shooting Form Wednesday Night

After a few poor shooting nights, Cleveland Cavaliers forward Cedi Osman was able to find the back of the net Wednesday night against the Golden State Warriors. Osman scored 16 points on 6-for-12 shooting while adding three three-pointers, three rebounds, and two steals in 33 minutes. Osman has really struggled shooting this season, shooting just […]

Khris Middleton Ruled Out Wednesday For Personal Reasons

Milwaukee Bucks guard/forward Khris Middleton (personal) is not with the team Wednesday night against the Detroit Pistons. There was report of Middleton being on the injury report so this comes as a surprise. Middleton was benched for most of their last game Saturday due to "lackluster" effort on defense, according to coach Mike Budenholzer. It's […]

Jeff Green Will Not Play Wednesday Against Atlanta

Washington Wizards forward Jeff Green (back) has been ruled out ahead of Wednesday night's game against the Atlanta Hawks. Green has been dealing with back spasms which held him out of Saturday's game and limited him to just 15 minutes on Monday. It appears a setback occurred and he should be considered questionable for their […]

Nikola Mirotic is Questionable on Wednesday

New Orleans Pelicans forward/center Nikola Mirotic (illness) has been listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. He was surprisingly scratched on Monday, so we'll see what happens on Wednesday. Julius Randle would be a fantastic DFS option if Mirotic sits out. Fantasy owners should check back for an update closer to game […]

Ersan Ilyasova is Doubtful on Wednesday

Milwaukee Bucks forward Ersan Ilyasova (concussion) is doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Ilyasova must be cleared by the NBA's concussion protocol before he can return to the court. Thon Maker would see extended playing time without Ilyasova on the court. However, Maker isn't going to be a fantasy asset.
