Marvin Williams Plays Well In Loss To Pacers
Charlotte Hornets forward Marvin Williams was one of only a couple of starters not to struggle in Sunday's 123-117 loss to Indiana, starting off very hot and finishing with 16 points in 22 minutes in the end. He filled it up from deep, making four of six treys and shot 5-for-8 overall. Williams also recorded […]
Lance Stephenson Almost Records a Triple-Double On Sunday
Indiana Pacers guard/forward Lance Stephenson got very close to his first triple-double of the season on Sunday, ending a 123-117 win over Charlotte with eight points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists in 27 minutes. He shot really badly, finishing 3-for-13, so that ruined his triple-double chances. Stephenson is a versatile player, but there have been […]
Maximilian Kleber Picks Up First Career Double-Double Off The Bench
Dallas Mavericks forward Maximilian Kleber will be celebrating his first career double-double on Sunday night. The 26-year-old rookie from Germany scored 11 points and grabbed 10 rebounds in 20 minutes off the bench in a 109-97 loss to Philadelphia. He played a weird one, as he filled the box score decently, getting one block as […]
Harrison Barnes Logs Huge Minutes On Sunday
Dallas Mavericks small forward Harrison Barnes literally got to rest his feet for just five minutes in Sunday's loss to the Sixers, playing 43 minutes. He scored a game-high 21 points, but wasn't very effective, going 2-for-9 with his treys and shooting 9-for-25 overall. Barnes' fantasy value relies heavily on scoring, so it was good […]
Robert Covington Finishes Sunday's Win With a Double-Double
Philadelphia 76ers small forward Robert Covington recorded his second double-double of the month in Sunday's win over Dallas, getting 15 points and 10 rebounds in 34 minutes.

Kyle Kuzma Listed As Questionable on Sunday
Los Angeles Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Utah Jazz. He sprained his ankle during the third quarter of Friday's loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Brandon Ingram Ruled Out Against Jazz
Los Angeles Lakers guard/forward Brandon Ingram (concussion) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Utah Jazz. There was some hope that Ingram would be able to suit up, but he has not cleared the NBA's concussion protocol yet. It does not appear Ingram is actually that close to returning and the Lakers have […]
T.J. Warren Likely Done For The Season
Phoenix Suns small forward T.J. Warren (knee) is not expected to play on Sunday versus the Golden State Warriors. Warren has not played since March 17th, but the team has not ruled him out for the season yet. He's missed nine straight contests and it's doubtful he'll play in the last two games of the […]
Guerschon Yabusele Won't Play Against Hawks
Boston Celtics forward Guerschon Yabusele (knee) will not play against the Atlanta Hawks on Sunday. The Celtics took an MRI and it came back clean, but the organization wants to be cautious. Yabusele played 25 minutes on Friday against the Chicago Bulls, but that was because Al Horford (rest) was out of the rotation. Yabusele […]
Marcus Morris Will Rest Sunday
Boston Celtics forward Marcus Morris (rest) has been ruled out of Sunday's game versus the Atlanta Hawks. The Celtics want to be cautious with their players as they headed into the playoffs. Jayson Tatum will basically swap into Morris' role for this contest. Expect Tatum to see minutes in the low 30s against the Hawks […]
Treveon Graham Ruled Out Sunday
Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Treveon Graham (concussion) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Indiana Pacers. He's missed three straight contests and his season could be over at this point. The Hornets only have one game left after Sunday and Graham is not a big part of the rotation. The organization may want to […]
Quincy Acy Leads Nets In Scoring Against Bulls
Brooklyn Nets small forward Quincy Acy led his team in scoring in Saturday's win over the Bulls, putting up 21 points on 7-for-14 shooting. He was 6-for-13 from three and added three rebounds.

Evan Turner Plays Well Saturday Night
Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Evan Turner had one of his best offensive performances of the season in Saturday's loss to San Antonio, scoring 18 points on 8-for-12 shooting while adding four assists in 32 minutes on the floor.

Manu Ginobili Has Perfect Night Versus Portland
San Antonio Spurs guard/forward Manu Ginobili rolled back the years on Saturday, as he shot a perfect 7-for-7 from the field against Portland on his way to 17 points in 19 minutes. He provided back-to-back threes at a vital time to help the Spurs get a comfortable lead late on, which they molded into a […]
Rudy Gay Provides 16 Points Off The Bench
San Antonio Spurs forward Rudy Gay scored 16 points in 27 minutes off the bench in Saturday's win over Portland, extending his streak with 10-plus point games to four. He's averaged exactly 16 points as well during the good run, which was sparked by a little bump in playing time. Gay has played at least […]
Michael Beasley Scores 13 Points In Return To Lineup
New York Knicks small forward Michael Beasley scored 13 points with six rebounds, two assists and a steal in a loss to the Milwaukee Bucks on Saturday night. He came back after a two-game absence due to a bruised knee and he fared well. With fantasy championships on the line this week, he is still […]
Kevin Durant With 41 Points In Loss
Golden State Warriors small forward/power forward Kevin Durant finished the game with 41 points in a six point loss to the New Orleans Pelicans.

Nikola Mirotic Stays Hot
New Orleans Pelicans power forward Nikola Mirotic kept the hot hand in a big win over the defending champs.

In the three previous games, Tucker hasn't […]

George scored 24 points going 6-for-17 from the floor and 9-for-10 from the free throw line. In addition to George's scoring output, he had six rebounds, four assists, and two steals. Since March second, PG-13's production has […]

In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on 4/8/18. These DFS lineup picks can vary from higher-priced players and elite options […]
Tobias Harris Shoots Poorly Again On Saturday
Los Angeles Clippers forward Tobias Harris had a second consecutive game with some really poor shooting on Saturday, making only six of 19 attempts from the field to record 16 points in a loss to Denver. He had a great night at the start of the week against San Antonio, scoring 31 points, but it's […]
Lance Thomas is Questionable on Saturday
New York Knicks guard/forward Lance Thomas (illness) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Thomas sat out of Friday's contest due to illness. The Knicks could be shorthanded with Tim Hardaway Jr. (sprained left ankle) listed as doubtful and Michael Beasley (left knee contusion) questionable on Saturday. Courtney Lee and Damyean Dotson would […]
Michael Beasley is Questionable on Saturday
New York Knicks forward Michael Beasley (knee) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. He bumped knees with Goran Dragic while setting a screen in the first minute of Friday's contest. He went to the locker room and was ruled out for the rest of the contest. Tim Hardaway Jr. (sprained left ankle) […]
Giannis Antetokounmpo Won't Play on Saturday
Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the New York Knicks. He missed a game in March due to ankle discomfort, but it's unclear how serious this issue is right now. The Bucks will elect to rest their superstar in a meaningless game. Milwaukee wants Antetokounmpo to be […]
Tim Hardaway Jr. is Doubtful on Saturday
New York Knicks guard/forward Tim Hardaway Jr. (ankle) is doubtful for Saturday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Hardaway sprained his ankle in the third quarter of Friday's victory over the Miami Heat. He landed on it awkwardly and headed to the locker room and did not return to the game. It would be surprising to […]
David Nwaba is Probable on Saturday
Chicago Bulls forward David Nwaba (hip) is probable for Saturday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He took a tough fall in Friday's loss to the Boston Celtics. However, Nwaba was able to still play 26 minutes and he's tagged as "probable" which is a good sign. Sean Kilpatrick dropped 24 points in 25 minutes and […]
Danilo Gallinari Likely Done For The Season
Los Angeles Clippers forward Danilo Gallinari (hand) has been ruled out of Saturday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He's missed two straight games after returning from a lengthy absence. The Clippers are basically eliminated from the postseason, so we could see Gallinari shut down for the season. He'll miss Saturday's contest at the very minimum, […]
Josh Jackson Scores 22 Points In Loss
Phoenix Suns small forward Josh Jackson continued his excellent play as of late in a 19-point loss to the New Orleans Pelicans. Jackson was not the most efficient from the floor only making seven of his 24 attempts to register his 22 points. He did salvage his rough shooting night to complete an excellent full […]
