Danilo Gallinari Plays Well Again In Monday's Win
Los Angeles Clippers forward Danilo Gallinari continued his excellent play on Monday when he notched 24 points with five rebounds and four assists in 31 minutes to help secure the win.

Harris connected on 10-for-16 shooting while adding six boards with an assist and two steals in 35 minutes. Harris posted a massive November where he […]
Kawhi Leonard's 27 Points Not Enough In Monday's Loss
Toronto Raptors shooting guard/small forward Kawhi Leonard kept his run of strong offensive nights going on Monday when he scored 27 points, but it was not enough in the three-point loss. Leonard added eight boards with two assists and a triple with three turnovers on the night. Leonard is coming off a spectacular week that […]
Danny Green Knocks Down Three Triples On Monday
Toronto Raptors shooting guard/small forward Danny Green continued his elite three-point shooting on Monday when he connected on three of seven attempts from deep to score nine points in the loss.

Siakam scored 14 points to go along with six rebounds and two steals in 29 minutes of action. Siakam continues to roll and in his last […]

Craig scored eight points with four rebounds and added an assist with a steal and two makes from deep in 17 minutes. The last time Harris was […]

Rodions Kurucs Scores 12 Points In 14 Minutes
Brooklyn Nets small forward Rodions Kurucs was far from bashful in his time on the floor Monday, scoring 12 points on six of 10 shooting in just 14 minutes during the loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers. The 20-year-old Latvian was a second-round selection, appearing in just his ninth game of the season, but that didn’t […]
Taurean Prince Scores 14 Points In Defeat
Atlanta Hawks small forward Taurean Prince finished Monday’s loss to the Golden State Warriors with 14 points, including three made triples. Make that five consecutive games with multiple three-pointers for Prince, who added three assists, but was generally quiet across the rest of the stat sheet. The nature of the loss likely affected his usage, […]
Kent Bazemore Delivers Dud Off Bench
Atlanta Hawks shooting guard/small forward Kent Bazemore was nearly silent during Monday’s loss to the Golden State Warriors, finishing with three points on one of six shooting across 19 minutes. In addition to his lack of offensive contributions, he added just one assist and one block. It appears that Kevin Huerter has leapfrogged him in […]
Kevin Durant Scores 28 Points In Efficient Outing
Golden State Warriors small/power forward Kevin Durant needed just 13 shot attempts to finish with 28 points during Monday’s win over the Atlanta Hawks. It was an efficient outing from Durant, who went 10-for-13 from the floor, adding eight assists and five rebounds across 34 minutes. Entering the night as the league’s second-leading scorer, Durant […]
Gary Harris Leaves With Hip Injury
Denver Nuggets shooting guard/small forward Gary Harris (hip) left Monday's game against the Raptors after nine minutes of playing time. He finished the game with three points on one of three shooting along with one rebound. This is disappointing for the 24-year-old who was playing his second game since missing a pair of games with […]
Evan Turner Listed As Probable For Tuesday
Portland Trail Blazers point guard/small forward Evan Turner is probable to make his return to the lineup Tuesday against the Dallas Mavericks. Turner missed his first game of the season Sunday due to left Achilles inflammation, while Damian Lillard logged 41 minutes without the assistance of his back-up. A fringe fantasy commodity, Turner is shooting […]
Derrick Jones Probable To Suit Up Tuesday
Miami Heat small forward Derrick Jones is listed as probable to return to action Tuesday against the Orlando Magic, having missed the previous two contests due to a hamstring injury. Despite having made four starts this season, Jones should stay on the waiver wire, as he has averaged just 14.4 minutes per night, with Miami […]
T.J. Warren Is Doubtful To Play Tuesday
Phoenix Suns small forward T.J. Warren is listed as doubtful to play in Tuesday’s game against the Sacramento Kings due to right ankle soreness. When Warren does next take the court, he’ll be in line for even more shots than usual with Devin Booker (hamstring) on the shelf for the foreseeable future. Should Warren fail […]
Luka Doncic Listed As Questionable For Tuesday
Dallas Mavericks point guard/small forward Luka Doncic is questionable to suit up for Tuesday’s game against the Portland Trail Blazers due to a right hip strain. The injury kept Doncic out of the lineup Sunday against the Los Angeles Clippers, with Harrison Barnes taking on an increased offensive load in his absence. Doncic was named […]
E'Twaun Moore Gets Green Light To Play Monday
New Orleans Pelicans shooting guard/small forward E'Twaun Moore is all set to play Monday against the Los Angeles Clippers without any type of minutes restriction, having been listed as probable earlier in the day due to a left tibial contusion. Moore could be a nice DFS play for the evening as the matchup features two […]
Joe Harris Ruled Out For Monday
Brooklyn Nets shooting guard/small forward Joe Harris has been ruled out for Monday’s game against the Cleveland Cavaliers due to left adductor tightness. Head coach Kenny Atkinson noted that Harris went through workouts on both Sunday and Monday and hopes to have the 27-year-old back for Wednesday’s contest against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The absence […]
Otto Porter Now Cleared To Play Monday
Washington Wizards small/power forward Otto Porter has reversed track and is now cleared to take the floor Monday against the New York Knicks. Porter had previously been ruled out due to a toe injury, but appears not only well enough to play, but will in fact start at the power forward spot. While there has […]
RotoBaller NBA Recap: Anthony Davis Haunts Charlotte
Welcome to the RotoBaller NBA Recap. In this feature, we will highlight three fantasy basketball takeaways from last night's slate of NBA games. We had six games on the dock yesterday with 10 of the 12 teams in action putting up at least 100 points, so there was no shortage of fantasy impact made on […]
Rodney McGruder is Questionable for Tuesday
Miami Heat forward Rodney McGruder (ankle) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Orlando Magic. McGruder was forced to leave Sunday's game due to a right ankle sprain. Tyler Johnson (hamstring) is probable for Tuesday, so he should be able to get out there. Both Johnson and Justise Winslow would benefit if McGruder […]
E'Twaun Moore is Probable on Monday
New Orleans Pelicans guard/forward E'Twaun Moore (leg) is probable for Monday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. Moore is dealing with a left tibial contusion, but is expected to be fine. Wesley Johnson would head to the bench assuming Moore is able to suit up.
Maximilian Kleber is Questionable for Tuesday
Dallas Mavericks forward Maximilian Kleber (knee) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Kleber has missed two games in a row due to a lingering knee issue. Both Dwight Powell and Dorian Finney-Smith would see a few extra minutes if Kleber is unable to play.
Luka Doncic is Expected to Play on Tuesday
Dallas Mavericks forward Luka Doncic (hip) is expected to play in Tuesday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Doncic has apparently improved after sitting out Sunday's game versus the Clippers, according to head coach Rick Carlisle. Dorian Finney-Smith will lose value and minutes assuming Doncic returns. Fantasy owners should check back for an update on […]
Otto Porter is Questionable on Monday
Washington Wizards forward Otto Porter (toe) is questionable for Monday's game against the New York Knicks. Porter returned to action on Saturday, but he continues to struggle. Austin Rivers and Troy Brown have been playing better when Porter is out of the lineup. Fantasy owners should expect them to be more involved if Porter is […]
Jeff Green is Probable on Monday
Washington Wizards forward Jeff Green (back) is probable for Monday's game against the New York Knicks. He missed one game, but is expected to be able to suit up for this contest. Green should see minutes in the 20s, assuming he's healthy enough to suit up. He's not an overly great fantasy option.
Lauri Markkanen Moves Into Starting Five
Chicago Bulls forward Lauri Markkanen will move into the starting lineup for Tuesday's game against the Indiana Pacers. This was expected after Markkanen returned after missing the beginning of the season due to an elbow injury. Jabari Parker will shift to the bench and lose some fantasy value. Markkanen needs to be owned in all […]
