T.J. Warren Scores 19 Points In Win
Phoenix Suns small forward T.J. Warren had his streak of scoring at least 20 points in seven consecutive games snapped during Friday’s win over the Milwaukee Bucks. Warren may not have gotten to 20 points, but he did get to 19 on an efficient 8-for-13 shooting. If the scoring itself weren’t impressive enough, Warren has […]

Taurean Prince Ice Cold In Loss
Atlanta Hawks small forward Taurean Prince went 0-for-7 from the field during Friday’s loss to the Boston Celtics.

Jayson Tatum Scores 14 Points In Season-Low 23 Minutes
Boston Celtics small/power forward Jayson Tatum finished in double figures with 14 points during Friday’s win over the Atlanta Hawks, but was limited to just 23 minutes as the Celtics were in cruise control from the first quarter on. Tatum’s virtually a guarantee to reach double figures, which makes his other contributions so important to […]
Jaylen Brown Scores In Double Figures For Third Straight Game
Boston Celtics shooting guard/small forward Jaylen Brown finished Friday’s win over the Atlanta Hawks with 10 points on 4-for-7 shooting, adding three assists, two rebounds and two steals.

Coach Igor Kokoskov wasn't […]

OG Anunoby Cleared To Return Friday
Toronto Raptors small forward OG Anunoby has been cleared to return to action Friday against the Washington Wizards. Anunoby has missed the past three games due to a wrist sprain and shakes off the probable designation that he had coming into the day.

FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (11/23/18): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice
The NBA was given off for Thanksgiving, but we're back with a massive 11 game slate tonight. There are a plethora of great options on this slate, and hopefully we can find some gems. I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving, but it's time to get down to business. In this article, I will be […]
OG Anunoby is Probable on Friday
Toronto Raptors forward OG Anunoby (wrist) is probable for Friday's game against the Washington Wizards. He's missed the last three games, but is on track to return versus Washington. C.J. Miles (groin) is available as well, so that could take away some of Anunoby's playing time. Neither player is much of a fantasy option right […]
C.J. Miles Will Play on Friday
Toronto Raptors guard/forward C.J. Miles (groin) is available for Friday's game against the Washington Wizards. Miles has missed the last five games, but will return for this one. However, Miles wasn't doing much with his playing time while healthy. He's averaging less than five points per game, so he can be avoided in most fantasy […]
Rudy Gay Turns In Highest Scoring Performance Of Season
San Antonio Spurs small forward Rudy Gay scored a season-high 21 points on 7-for-10 shooting from the floor in Wednesday's loss to the Grizzlies. The 32-year-old wing also grabbed eight rebounds, doled out an assist, blocked a shot as well as came up with a steal. He went 6-for-6 from the charity stripe, meaning that […]
Dante Cunningham Shooting The Ball Well
San Antonio Spurs small forward/power forward Dante Cunningham scored seven points, grabbed four rebounds and doled out two assists in Wednesday's loss to Grizzlies. He made two of four shots from the field with all four attempts being three-pointers. While the 31-year-old has scored in double-figures in just two of his last 10 games, he […]
Michael Kidd-Gilchrist Ruled Out on Friday
Charlotte Hornets forward Michael Kidd-Gilchrist (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. This will be his fifth straight game sidelined, so it seems unlikely that he'll be ready for Sunday's matchup against the Hawks. It's unclear how close MKG is to returning. Miles Bridges and Dwayne Bacon should see […]
C.J. Miles is Probable on Friday
Toronto Raptors forward C.J. Miles (groin) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Washington Wizards. He's missed the last five games, so expect Miles to be on a minutes limit, assuming he returns on Friday. Delon Wright should see his minutes decrease in the teens once Miles returns. Neither player is worth owning […]
OG Anunoby is Probable for Friday
Toronto Raptors forward OG Anunoby (wrist) is listed as probable for Friday's game against the Washington Wizards. He's missed the last three games while dealing with a sore wrist. Pascal Siakam would lose a few minutes if Anunoby does return to the rotation. However, healthy or not, fantasy owners can avoid Anunoby.
Dorian Finney-Smith Struggles Against Nets
Dallas Mavericks forward Dorian Finney-Smith scored just five points on 1-for-9 shooting in Wednesday's win over the Brooklyn Nets. He added four rebounds, an assist, and a block as well.

DeMarre Carroll Held Scoreless
Brooklyn Nets forward DeMarre Carroll was held without a point in Wednesday's loss to the Dallas Mavericks, going 0-for-7 from the field and adding in a rebound and a steal. It was a tough one for Carroll, who had been averaging 9.3 points and 4.7 rebounds per game coming into this one. He'll remain a […]

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Robert Covington scored 16 points with four rebounds, two steals and four three-pointers in Wednesday's home loss to the Denver Nuggets. Covington has been exceptional this season for his category league owners, averaging 12.1 points, 5.0 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 2.1 steals, 1.5 blocks and 2.6 threes. His defensive statistics and three-point production […]
Kyle Anderson Perfect From Field

The 25-year-old was 4-for-4 from the field and 1-for-1 from beyond the arc in 39 minutes. While he has failed to score in double-figures in seven straight games, the fifth-year […]
Mikal Bridges Struggles In Return To Bench
