Rodney McGruder Scores 19 Points In Rout Over Knicks

Miami Heat small forward Rodney McGruder scored 19 points with six rebounds, five assists and one steal in 31 minutes of play over the New York Knicks. He is ahead of the rotation right now and is capitalizing with extended minutes. If he is still on your waiver wire, you might as well grab him. […]

Mario Hezonja Scores 13 Points Versus Heat

New York Knicks shooting guard Mario Hezonja scored 13 points on 4-for-15 shooting in a loss to the Miami Heat on Wednesday night. He struggled to score, but at least his shot is falling now. He is easing into the season nicely and added in three rebounds and one block in 22 minutes of play. […]

Cedi Osman Struggles Against The Nets

Cleveland Cavaliers small forward Cedi Osman had another less-than-stellar performance versus the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday. In the outing, Osman scored eight points on four of twelve shooting and had six rebounds as well. This was the second straight game where Osman shot 33 percent from the floor. The Detroit Pistons on Thursday are next […]

Rondae Hollis-Jefferson Makes Season Debut

Andrew Wiggins Will Not Play Wednesday

Minnesota Timberwolves shooting guard Andrew Wiggins (quad) will sit out Wednesday night against the Toronto Raptors. Wiggins left his last game with a quad contusion and does not feel good enough to go Wednesday. Josh Okogie will start in the absence of Wiggins and is a cheap DFS play for Wednesday's slate, while Jimmy Butler […]

Derrick Jones Ruled Out Wednesday

Miami Heat forward Derrick Jones (foot) will not play Wednesday night against the New York Knicks. Jones was came into the day with a questionable tag, but was downgraded to doubtful then eventually ruled out of the contest.

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (10/24/18): NBA DFS Lineups

This is going to be one of our bigger slates this early in the season, so it'll be a little more risky to stack, but the Pheonix Suns vs. Los Angeles Lakers game is still the one to target. There are plenty of options to really flex your money with, but if you are spending […]

FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (10/24/18): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

RotoBaller NBA Recap: Blake Griffin is the GOAT

Welcome to the RotoBaller NBA Recap where we'll highlight three fantasy basketball takeaways from last night's three-game slate because a 1,000-word love letter to Blake Griffin would be frowned upon. (Although, merited to the utmost degree.) More on Blake in a bit, but while we're here, sign me up for a first-round, 4-seed/5-seed playoff matchup […]

Garrett Temple is Questionable on Wednesday

Memphis Grizzlies guard Garrett Temple (groin) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He was called probable, but now it's unclear what his current status is at the moment. Temple has been playing 35.0 minutes per game over the last two contests. Wayne Selden is most likely going to start if Temple is […]

Dillon Brooks Ruled Out on Wednesday

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Dillon Brooks (foot) has been ruled out of Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He did some conditioning and should be back in the lineup soon. JaMychal Green (jaw) and Chandler Parsons (knee) will also be watching from the sideline. Omri Casspi and Wayne Selden should see at least 20 minutes each […]

Ben Simmons Remains Questionable on Wednesday

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Ben Simmons (back) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Simmons was not able to practice on Monday and didn't play in Tuesday's game. There is a good chance he's not going to suit up for this contest. Landry Shamet could jump into the starting five again, but he didn't […]

Iman Shumpert is Questionable on Wednesday

Sacramento Kings guard/forward Iman Shumpert (hip) is questionable to play in Wednesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. It's unclear how Shumpert suffered the injury, but he could take the night off to rest. Yogi Ferrell would likely return to the starting five and Justin Jackson would see extra run as well. Neither player is a […]

Jabari Parker is Questionable on Wednesday

Chicago Bulls forward Jabari Parker (illness) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. He didn't go through shootaround and could sit this one out due to an upper respiratory infection. Bobby Portis would see all the minutes he could handle if Parker does not play. Portis would be an excellent DFS option without […]

Andrew Wiggins Remains Questionable on Wednesday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Andrew Wiggins (thigh) is still questionable to play against the Toronto Raptors on Wednesday. Head coach Tom Thibodeau said Wiggins felt better after shootaround, but his status still remains uncertain. Wiggins said he was planning to play on Wednesday after exiting early during Monday's contest. This is likely something that is going […]

Harrison Barnes is Hopeful to Play Friday

Dallas Mavericks forward Harrison Barnes (hamstring) is hopeful that he'll be able to make his season debut against the Toronto Raptors on Friday. Barnes has been heading in the right direction lately and should be good to go unless he suffers a setback. Dorian Finney-Smith would head to the bench when Barnes returns. It's unclear […]

Wayne Ellington, Derrick Jones Doubtful for Wednesday

Miami Heat guard/forward Wayne Ellington (ankle) and forward Derrick Jones (foot) are doubtful for Wednesday's game against the New York Knicks. Jones missed practice on Monday and was limited on Tuesday. Ellington continues to work his way back from an ankle issue. Head coach Erik Spoelstra said Ellington would need to get through a full practice […]

Justise Winslow is Available on Wednesday

Miami Heat forward Justise Winslow (hamstring) will be available for Wednesday's game against the New York Knicks. He's been dealing with a lingering hamstring issue for roughly a month. He averaged 7.8 points, 5.4 rebounds, and 2.2 assists last season. He's most likely going to have his minutes limited during his first game back. Winslow […]

Stanley Johnson Scoreless Against Sixers

Detroit Pistons forward Stanley Johnson was scoreless in 19 minutes on Tuesday against Philadelphia, missing all five of his shot attempts while adding in three assists and a rebound. In his fourth NBA season, it doesn't seem like Johnson is taking that next step in his career yet, and he's likely to be an inconsistent […]

Dario Saric Struggles From Three Against Pistons

Philadelphia 76ers forward Dario Saric scored 14 points in 37 minutes in Tuesday's overtime loss to the Detroit Pistons, but it wasn't the most efficient game for Saric, who connected on three of his five attempts from inside the arc, but was just 2-for-11 from deep. Saric added in eight rebounds, five assists, a steal, […]

Robert Covington Efficient In Overtime Loss

Philadelphia 76ers forward Robert Covington scored 16 points on 6-for-11 shooting in Tuesday's overtime loss to the Detroit Pistons. Covington connected on three of his four attempts from deep while also grabbing eight rebounds and adding in a pair of assists, a steal, and a block. With Ben Simmons (back) out, Covington played a team-high […]

Tobias Harris Sharp In Road Loss

Los Angeles Clippers small forward Tobias Harris ended up with a team-high 26 points while snagging nine rebounds across 38 minutes in Tuesday's 116-109 road loss against the New Orleans Pelicans. He added three assists with a steal and he turned it over just once hitting 8-for-16 from the floor, including 2-for-5 from behind the […]

Danilo Gallinari Scores Two Dozen Points In Road Loss

Los Angeles Clippers small forward Danilo Gallinari scored 24 points with six rebounds, an assist, a steal and a blocked shot over 35 minutes in Tuesday's 116-109 road loss against the New Orleans Pelicans. He was sharp, hitting 8-for-15 from the field, and he was a perfect 7-for-7 from the free-throw line. The good news […]
