Russell Westbrook And Carmelo Anthony Good To Go Tuesday

The Oklahoma City Thunder will have Russell Westbrook and Carmelo Anthony (ankle) Tuesday night against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Both Westbrook and Anthony were held out of their last two games with ankle injuries but will make their returns in a primetime matchup against the new-look Cavs. Neither player is expected to have limitations, so Raymond […]

Aaron Gordon is Unlikely to Play Wednesday

Orlando Magic forward Aaron Gordon (hip) is considered questionable for Wednesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Head coach Frank Vogel said Gordon is unlikely to play against Charlotte, but is technically listed as questionable. Gordon has missed eight straight games and Orlando only has one more before the break. Resting Gordon would give him extra […]

Davis Bertans Expected to Start Tuesday

San Antonio Spurs forward/center Davis Bertans is expected to start against the Denver Nuggets on Tuesday. LaMarcus Aldridge (knee) sat out on Monday and will sit out once again for Tuesday's contest. Bertans scored 12 points with four rebounds, one steal, and three blocks in 29 minutes on Monday. He will be a cheap candidate […]

Carmelo Anthony is Questionable Against Cavs

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Carmelo Anthony (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He did go through shootaround but is likely headed towards a game-time decision on Tuesday. Melo has missed two straight games but could return against the Cavs, which is the front end of a back-to-back set. The Thunder will […]

OG Anunoby is Questionable Tuesday

Toronto Raptors forward OG Anunoby (ankle) is questionable for Tuesday's game against the Miami Heat. Head coach Dwane Casey said Anunoby would play if it was a playoff game, but they want to be cautious heading into the break. He is still experiencing some soreness in his ankle after spraining it in Sunday's contest. C.J. […]

Wesley Matthews is Probable on Tuesday

Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Wesley Matthews (back) is probable for Tuesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He missed Sunday's game versus the Houston Rockets, but is expected back in action on Tuesday. Dirk Nowitzki (ankle) and J.J. Barea (rest) are expected to return to the rotation on Tuesday as well. Matthews is worth owning, but his […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/13/18): NBA DFS Lineups

We're just two more reasonable slates away from the NBA All-Star Break, so get your NBA DFS in while you can. We get another six games on this Tuesday, and the Spurs on a back-to-back happen to be the last game of the night... oh joy. In this article, I will be providing you with my daily […]

Davis Bertans Records Three Blocks Against Utah

San Antonio Spurs forward Davis Bertans scored 12 points and recorded three blocks in Monday's 101-99 loss to the Jazz. The Latvian shot well from the floor, going 5-for-8, including 2-for-4 from behind the arc. He also had four rebounds and a steal in 29 minutes. Bertans has now reached double figures in scoring in […]

Kyle Anderson Leads Spurs in Scoring Against Utah

San Antonio Spurs forward Kyle Anderson logged a team-high 35 minutes in Monday's loss to Utah and he also led the team in scoring, getting 16 points on 5-for-12 shooting. He missed all three attempts from deep and turned the ball over four times, but it was a good performance overall, which included five rebounds, […]

Kevin Durant Efficient In Easy Win

Golden State Warriors forward Kevin Durant shot 8-for-9 from the field for 17 points to go along with seven boards and six assists in a 129-83 beating against the Suns on Monday. He added a three-pointer and a block, as the Warriors starters never saw the floor in the fourth quarter. The good news is […]

Evan Fournier Has Another Solid Game

Orlando Magic guard/forward Evan Fournier scored 22 points in a loss to Chicago on Monday. Fournier has shown up since the trade deadline passed, scoring 20 or more points in his last three games. He shot 60 percent from the field, going 9-for-15 with three threes. It was his 18th game with at least three […]

Mario Hezonja Has Another Big Night

Orlando Magic guard/forward Mario Hezonja scored 24 points in a loss to Chicago on Monday. Hezonja is starting to get comfortable starting for the oft-injured Aaron Gordon (hip). For the second straight game, Hezonja scored more than 20 points. Gordon's injury bodes well for Hezonja fantasy owners for obvious reasons. In the last three games […]

Michael Beasley Goes for a Team-High 22 Points in Loss

New York Knicks forward Michael Beasley started on Monday against the Sixers and gave his owners some solid scoring in his team-high 39 minutes, finishing with a team-best 22 points, including two triples, shooting 9-for-17 from the field in the losing effort. Beasley was fairly productive on the boards as well, pulling down five rebounds […]

Tim Hardaway Jr. Snaps Back Into Slump on Monday

New York Knicks guard/forward Tim Hardaway Jr. scored 17 points against the Pacers on Sunday in Indiana, but returned back to his slumping ways in Philly, scoring just nine points on a sorry 4-for-16 shooting on Monday. Hardaway Jr. added two rebounds, three assists and one steal in the loss, while committing one turnover in […]

DeMarre Carroll Gets Double-Double Against Clips

Brooklyn Nets small forward DeMarre Carroll had a double-double in a Monday night loss to the Los Angeles Clippers. A strong candidate to get moved at the deadline, Carroll stayed put in Brooklyn, and that is a positive thing for his fantasy owners. In what has been a strong season of continued consistent play for the […]

Dario Saric Lights it Up for 24 Points

Philadelphia 76ers forward Dario Saric lit it up on Monday night en route to dismantling the Knicks. He led his team in scoring with 24 points while draining 4-for-6 from deep. Saric has been on fire over the last month and has found himself as a solid No. 3 option. He’s especially important, as his point […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/12/18): NBA DFS Lineups

The Association has six games scheduled to start off the week. Plenty of high-scoring matchups, but also plenty of games to stay away from, notably Knicks/Sixers, Spurs/Jazz and Suns/Warriors. In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on 2/12/18. These DFS lineup picks can vary from higher-priced players […]

Draymond Green Ruled Out Against Suns

Golden State Warriors forward/center Draymond Green (finger) has been ruled out of Monday's game against the Phoenix Suns. Green was considered doubtful heading into Monday, but the Warriors should be able to easily win with Devin Booker (hip) ruled out for this contest. Kevon Looney played 30 minutes last time Green missed a game, but […]

Aaron Gordon Out Against Bulls

Orlando Magic forward Aaron Gordon (hip) won't play against the Chicago Bulls on Monday. He was doubtful heading into Monday, and he'll likely be sidelined until after the All-Star break. The Magic have just one more game after Monday, so do not expect Gordon to suit up for that contest. Mario Hezonja has been playing […]

Marco Belinelli Could Play Monday

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Marco Belinelli could make his Sixers debut against the New York Knicks on Monday. He is expected to sign the paperwork a few hours before tip-off, but it's just a matter of whether or not they get it done in time. Belinelli will be a solid addition to the Sixers bench. He […]

Doug McDermott Finishes With Eight Points in the Start

Dallas Mavericks small forward Doug McDermott got the start on Sunday against Houston with Dirk Nowitzki (ankle), Wesley Matthews (back) and J.J. Barea (rest) all out, but he failed to impress, scoring only eight points in 34 minutes. McDermott shot 2-for-6 from downtown and 3-for-9 overall. He added four assists and three rebounds to his […]

Harrison Barnes Underperforms on Sunday

Dallas Mavericks small forward Harrison Barnes had a disappointing outing on Sunday against the Houston Rockets, finishing with only 11 points in 31 minutes. After dropping 21 points in 27 minutes on the Lakers, Barnes shot 4-for-15 from the field and missed four of his five attempts from downtown. Barnes, who missed a couple of […]

Dwight Powell Records Double-Double on Sunday

Dallas Mavericks forward/center Dwight Powell picked up his second double-double of the season in Sunday's loss to Houston, scoring 18 points on 6-for-12 shooting in addition to grabbing 12 rebounds. Powell also sank all six of his attempts from the charity stripe and he also had one block in 29 minutes of action. He now […]

Paul George Puts Up 33 Points

Oklahoma City Thunder small forward Paul George put up a lot of points but didn't shoot very well in the game Sunday against the Memphis Grizzlies. George scored 33 points, going 10-for-24 from the floor and 8-for-11 from the free throw line. In the matchup versus the Grizzlies, PG-13 also had eight assists and three […]

James Ennis Has Modest Pistons Debut

Detroit Pistons forward James Ennis had a promising debut but still carries minimal fantasy value. Ennis is too inconsistent of a scorer and is working his way into a new rotation, which seriously caps his upside. Even if he manages to earn consistent minutes, his entire career has been surrounded by shooting inconsistencies and hustle plays, […]

LeBron James Scrapes At Triple-Double

Cleveland Cavaliers forward LeBron James neared a triple-double against the Celtics on Sunday in a dominating victory. James finally had his new, youthful acquisitions at his disposal and the Cavaliers looked like a rejuvenated squad, resulting in a beautiful stat line from James. The style of the team has not changed, but his arsenal has […]

C.J. Miles Blows Up for a Season-High 24 Points Against the Hornets

Toronto Raptors guard/forward C.J. Miles was red-hot from beyond the arc on Sunday, banging home a game-high six triples to score 24 points while shooting a super-efficient 8-for-11 in the contest. Miles filled it up in general in this one, adding one assist, one rebound, two steals and one block in the win. That makes […]

Aaron Gordon is Doubtful on Monday

Orlando Magic forward Aaron Gordon (hip) is doubtful to play against the Chicago Bulls on Monday. The Magic only have two games left before the All-Star break, so it would not be surprising to see Gordon sit out both games. The Magic are currently tanking, so they can afford to be cautious with Gordon. Mario […]

Iman Shumpert Won't Play Sunday

Sacramento Kings guard/forward Iman Shumpert (foot) will not play in Sunday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Shumpert is considered out indefinitely with plantar fasciitis in his left foot. He was traded to the Kings in a three-team trade at the deadline. Shumpert was not doing much when healthy, so do not expect his value to […]

Harrison Barnes Has Highly Efficient Night Against Lakers

Dallas Mavericks small forward Harrison Barnes helped lead the Mavericks to a 130-123 win over the Los Angeles Lakers on Saturday, scoring 21 points on just nine shots -- Barnes made six of them and also went 7-for-7 from the free throw line. Barnes grabbed six rebounds and had a pair of assists as well. […]
