C.J. Miles Drains A Few Triples in Revenge Game
Toronto Raptors guard/forward C.J. Miles got some revenge against his former team on Thursday, scoring a cool 10 points on the Pacers while shooting 3-for-9 in this one, with all three makes coming from downtown. Miles chipped in one board, one assist and a steal in his 21 minutes, but did most of his damage […]
DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/16/18): NBA DFS Lineups
There was a sizable slate last night, which leaves only a six game slate for tonight. That's kind of odd, as Friday is generally the "big day" for the NBA. March Madness is going on right now, though, so maybe the NBA does not want to compete for ratings. Regardless, we still have plenty of […]
Tyreke Evans Will Return And Start
Memphis Grizzlies guard Tyreke Evans (ribs) will start Thursday night against the Chicago Bulls. Evans has had a lengthy absence with a rib injury but despite the Grizzlies being out of the playoff race, he will return to the starting lineup with Andrew Harrison (wrist) and Mario Chalmers (hamstring) out. Evans was one of the […]
Goran Dragic Leads All Scorers With 33 Points
Miami Heat point guard Goran Dragic dominated the Sacramento Kings defense Wednesday night, tying his season high with 33 points on 11-for-21 shooting. Dragic had no problem weaving through the paint but did not contribute much else on the stat sheet outside of points. Dragic remains a low-end scoring point guard who struggles with inconsistency, […]
Bradley Beal Posts Monster Line In Double-Overtime Win
Washington Wizards shooting guard Bradley Beal led all scorers Wednesday in the double-overtime win over the Boston Celtics. Beal dropped 34 points on 14-for-27 shooting and contributed nine assists, seven rebounds, three three-pointers, two steals and one block in 47 minutes. Beal's dominant stat line helped the Wizards overcome a 20-point deficit against a tough […]
DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/15/18): NBA DFS Lineups
We have a nice slate of games for a Thursday, with many of them projected to run close, as well as be high-scoring. Not many significant injuries to work with, so your best bet will be to work on matchups, game pace and the over/under. In this article, I will be providing you with my […]
Jeremy Lamb is Questionable on Thursday
Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Jeremy Lamb (back) is questionable to play against the Atlanta Hawks on Thursday. It's a new injury for Lamb, but hopefully nothing too serious. He's cooled off a bit lately, but is still worth owning in most leagues. The Hornets have been hinting that they could change their rotation. Fantasy owners should […]
Tim Hardaway Jr. Questionable Against 76ers
New York Knicks guard/forward Tim Hardaway Jr. (ankle) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He did not practice on Wednesday, but did manage to play 39 minutes in Tuesday's loss to the Mavs. The Knicks have no incentive to play Hardaway unless he's at 100 percent. It would not be […]
Reggie Bullock Will Start Against Nuggets
Detroit Pistons guard/forward Reggie Bullock (back) will draw the start against the Denver Nuggets on Thursday. He was forced to miss Tuesday's game against the Jazz. Stanley Johnson, James Ennis and Luke Kennard will shift back to their normal roles with Bullock back in as a starter. However, Bullock is really the only player here that […]
Devin Booker is Questionable Thursday
Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (hand) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Utah Jazz. He jammed his hand at practice on Wednesday, but it did not appear too significant at the time. Booker said he'll try to play against the Jazz on Thursday, but he will remain a risky fantasy option. The fact that […]
Andrew Harrison Ruled Out Against Bulls
Memphis Grizzlies guard Andrew Harrison (wrist) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He's missed seven straight games and will likely miss a few more games. Harrison was playing well before the injury, but that does not mean he should be owned in fantasy leagues. He doesn't appear that close to […]
Mario Chalmers is Doubtful on Thursday
Memphis Grizzlies guard Mario Chalmers (hamstring) is listed as doubtful for Thursday's game against the Chicago Bulls. Chalmers has been sidelined for five straight games, but was recently re-evaluated. It sounds like he has not made much progress since he's still being listed as doubtful. Kobi Simmons is likely looking at another start with Briante […]
Tyreke Evans is Questionable for Thursday
Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Tyreke Evans (rib) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Chicago Bulls. Evans has missed 10 games in a row and Memphis has been ruling him out in advance. This is good news that he's actually listed as questionable, but fantasy owners should not get too excited. This could just be an […]
Rodney Hood is Probable on Thursday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Rodney Hood (back) is probable for Thursday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Head coach Ty Lue said Hood would be dealing with a minutes limit when he returns. Hood has missed two games in a row, but said he'd probably be ready by Thursday. Kyle Korver has been playing fantastic as […]
Norman Powell is Doubtful on Thursday
Toronto Raptors guard/forward Norman Powell (ankle) is listed as doubtful to play against the Indiana Pacers on Thursday. He suffered the injury during a workout on Wednesday, but is now reportedly in a walking boot. OG Anunoby (ankle) is expected to rejoin the starting lineup on Thursday. Malcolm Miller and Delon Wright should see extended […]
Eric Bledsoe Delivers on Both Ends
Milwaukee Bucks guard Eric Bledsoe was clicking on all cylinders Wednesday, scoring 20 points on 8-for-16 shooting from the field and 3-for-7 from downtown while recording eight assists and four steals in their loss to the Orlando Magic. The combo guard doesn't have to shoot so much in his first season with the Bucks because […]
Khris Middleton Scores 22 Points In Loss
Milwaukee Bucks shooting guard/small forward Khris Middleton has been Mr. Consistent all season long and Wednesday was no different, as he scored 22 points on 8-for-16 shooting from the field, 4-for-6 from deep and had five assists in their disappointing loss to the Orlando Magic. He is quietly having his most efficient season thus far in […]
Josh Richardson Ruled Out Wednesday
Miami Heat guard/forward Josh Richardson (foot) will sit out Wednesday night against the Sacramento Kings. This comes as no surprise, as Richardson was designated as doubtful coming into the contest. With Dwyane Wade (hamstring) also out, the Heat will likely go with a committee of Rodney McGruder, Wayne Ellington and Justise Winslow to fill in. […]
Kyle Kuzma Out Wednesday Night
Los Angeles Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma (ankle) will not play Wednesday against the Golden State Warriors. Kuzma is battling an injured ankle and won't be able to play through it. In his absence, Isaiah Thomas will move into the starting lineup with Kentavious Caldwell-Pope sliding to small forward. Thomas will likely take over most of […]
DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/14/18): NBA DFS Lineups
We have a smaller four game NBA slate to get us through this hump day and there are some interesting options across the board. Not a ton of injuries as of right now, so lineup construction should be pretty straight forward, which could make it difficult to get some of the bigger name players into the same […]
Josh Richardson is Doubtful on Wednesday
Miami Heat guard/forward Josh Richardson (ankle) is doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Sacramento Kings. Dwyane Wade (hamstring) and Hassan Whiteside (hip) have already been ruled out for this contest. The Heat could be short-handed for this contest if Richardson sits as well. He played just 16 minutes in the loss to the Blazers on […]
Dwyane Wade Out on Wednesday
Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade (hamstring) is listed as out for Wednesday's contest versus the Sacramento Kings. He was unable to suit up for Monday's game after straining his hamstring on Saturday. This information is from the game notes, so there is a small chance that Wade does play. Wayne Ellington, Tyler Johnson and Justise […]
Klay Thompson Ruled Out Next Four Games
Golden State Warriors guard/forward Klay Thompson (thumb) will miss the next four games. He has been diagnosed with a fractured right thumb and will re-evaluated on March 22. He injured his thumb on Sunday but was able to play through it. The Warriors are in a position where they can afford to be cautious with […]
Tim Hardaway Jr. is Questionable on Thursday
New York Knicks guard/forward Tim Hardaway Jr. (ankle) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. He was unable to practice on Wednesday and has been listed as questionable for Thursday. However, Hardaway did play 39 minutes in the loss to the Mavs on Tuesday. The Knicks are playing for draft positioning and can […]
Kyrie Irving Ruled Out Wednesday
Boston Celtics guard Kyrie Irving (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Washington Wizards. Irving is not expected to play at all this week. Marcus Smart (thumb) and Jaylen Brown (concussion) will join Irving on the sideline for Wednesday's contest. Al Horford (illness) is questionable, so the Celtics could be very short-handed […]
Devin Booker Scores 17 Points In Loss To Cavs
Phoneix Suns shooting guard Devin Booker scored 17 points along with three rebounds, six assists, one steal and five turnovers. He will only have two more games this week, so that is something to be aware of for managers who made it to the playoffs. Booker is capable of producing more but since he has […]
DeMar DeRozan Shows Up Late in Brooklyn
Toronto Raptors shooting guard DeMar DeRozan got it going in the second half on Tuesday after struggling to find his shot early on against the Nets. DeRozan tallied 15 points on the night, draining one triple in the contest and shooting 6-for-12 from the field in the process. He committed a team-high four turnovers but […]
C.J. Miles Gets Hot From Three-Point Land
Toronto Raptors guard/forward C.J. Miles came through for his team with some big buckets in the second half on Tuesday, knocking down all three of his makes from deep in this one, finishing with 12 points (3-for-7) against the Nets. Miles didn't do much else in the win but did manage to pull down three […]
Delon Wright Logs 16 Minutes Off the Bench
Toronto Raptors guard Delon Wright played well down the stretch for the Raps in their win over the Nets, scoring 10 points on 4-for-6 shooting, with two makes from downtown in the contest. Wright added three rebounds, four assists and a steal in this one, but also turned over the ball three times in his […]
J.J. Redick Nearly Perfect from Deep
Philadelphia 76ers shooting guard J.J. Redick was hot on Tuesday in his 29 minutes. He was nearly perfect from deep, going 4-for-5, as he totaled 16 points. The three-point specialist did his job but not much else. The 76ers have recently added three-point shooting in Marco Belinelli and Ersan Ilyasova, so Redick will need to […]
