Week 7: Dynasty Risers And Fallers For Fantasy Basketball
Here we are, in the thick of the in-season tournament playoffs and crazy schedules that put every single game on two different days of the week. Welcome back to the dynasty corner, RotoBallers! The place where we get to look at players in fantasy basketball the same way that general managers look at prospects and […]

NBA DFS Picks for FanDuel, DraftKings - Pelicans vs. Lakers Thursday Night Showdown
Happy Thursday, RotoBallers! Welcome back to our weekly showdown. I feel like we have been here before, we have had the Lakers a lot this season and you would think that means we have their rotation down. With everyone finally healthy, it finally looks like we have a little more straightforward of a slate. At […]

Brandon Boston Jr. Heads To G-League
Los Angeles Clippers guard Brandon Boston Jr. (quad) is headed to the G-League for a rehab stint. Boston was cleared for 5-on-5 work earlier this week. That being said, it appears he's ready for his first game action of the year. Boston has been unable to play this season due to tendinitis in his left […]

Jalen Suggs Won't Return On Wednesday
Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs (ankle) won't return to Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The young guard fell awkwardly and suffered a right ankle sprain. As a result, the Magic are going to hold him out for the rest of the game. It's unknown if he'll miss more time, so fantasy managers will have […]

Dante Exum Makes First Start Of The Season
Dallas Mavericks guard Dante Exum will move into the starting five ahead of Wednesday's game against the Utah Jazz. The Mavs are looking to fill the void with Grant Williams (knee) unable to play. Exum is averaging 6.5 points, 2.8 rebounds and 2.2 assists across 13.8 minutes over his last 10 games. The Mavs are […]

Alex Caruso Available For Wednesday's Game
Chicago Bulls guard Alex Caruso (toe) is available for Wednesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. He was considered probable coming into this game, but will officially suit up for this game. He'll be in the starting five and resume his normal role in the rotation. The presence of Caruso will mean less minutes for Ayo […]

De'Anthony Melton Will Play On Wednesday
Philadelphia 76ers guard De'Anthony Melton (illness) was originally listed as probable so the fact he was upgraded to active doesn't come as a huge surprise. He'll be back in the starting five along with a fully healthy Sixers squad for the first time since Kelly Oubre Jr. (ribs) first got injured. Melton's fantasy value will […]

Landry Shamet Will Not Suit Up Against 76ers
Washington Wizards guard Landry Shamet (rib) has been downgraded to out against the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday. The sharpshooter is dealing with a right rib sprain that ultimately gave him too much pain to play through. While he's on the sidelines, Jordan Poole (ankle) and Johnny Davis (calf) will both see more minutes if they […]

Anthony Edwards Has Been Upgraded To Active On Wednesday
Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Anthony Edwards (hip) will play on Wednesday against the San Antonio Spurs and head coach Chris Finch said that he won't be restricted either. Edwards has been the leader of the team's offense as the Timberwolves currently sit at the top of the Western Conference. He's missed the last two games with […]

Devin Vassell Probable For Wednesday
San Antonio Spurs guard/forward Devin Vassell (knee) is probable for Wednesday's matchup against Minnesota. The 23-year-old is managing a left knee issue but should be good to go for the game. Vassell has been coming off the bench lately, but he's still remained a productive player, even leading the team in scoring on a couple […]

Landry Shamet Questionable For Wednesday's Game
Washington Wizards guard Landry Shamet (rib) is questionable for Wednesday's action against Philadelphia. He's likely desperate to play against his former team, but Shamet might have to sit out the contest due to a right rib sprain. Shamet has had some strong showing lately, scoring double figures in four of the last five games off […]

Caris LeVert Sits Out Second Consecutive Game
Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Caris LeVert (knee) has been ruled out for a second consecutive game on Wednesday versus Orlando. He didn't practice on Tuesday and will watch things from the sidelines, as he also did on Saturday versus Detroit. With him on the shelf, Isaac Okoro almost doubled his regular playing time over the weekend, […]

Joe Harris Considered Doubtful Wednesday
Detroit Pistons guard/forward Joe Harris (shoulder) is listed as doubtful for Wednesday's contest against the Grizzlies. The veteran is recovering from a shoulder sprain and will likely miss a 14th consecutive game. Having dropped 17 games in a row, the Pistons could use all the help they can get, but Harris didn't do much for […]

Jordan Clarkson To Miss Third Straight Game
Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson (thigh) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. The veteran guard will miss his third game in a row due to a right thigh contusion. His absence will mean another start for Ochai Agbaji. Although, he hasn't been a great option, so fantasy managers can probably […]

Eric Gordon To Play On Tuesday
Phoenix Suns guard/forward Eric Gordon (knee) will suit up for Tuesday's game against the Los Angeles Lakers. The veteran forward will make his return to the lineup after a one-game absence due to a right knee contusion. The expectation is that he'll resume his role in the starting five. That means, Keita Bates-Diop should head […]

Eric Gordon Might Miss Another Game On Tuesday
Phoenix Suns guard/forward Eric Gordon (knee) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's in-season tournament quarterfinal versus the Lakers. The veteran sniper missed his second game of the season last time out against Memphis. He's dealing with a knee contusion, which isn't a serious issue, but the injury hasn't fully cleared up. As Phoenix has dealt […]

Andre Jackson Jr. Questionable Tuesday
Milwaukee Bucks guard Andre Jackson Jr. (back) is regarded as questionable for Tuesday's matchup against the Knicks. The 22-year-old rookie missed the weekend's action against Atlanta with a lower back issue and hasn't yet fully recovered. Jackson Jr. hasn't featured a lot for the Bucks, averaging 8.6 minutes per game, but he could currently have […]

Pistons Reportedly Interested In Zach LaVine
Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (foot) is currently sidelined and is hopeful to get back on the court within the next week or so. However, there's a chance that LaVine has played his last game in Chicago. The Bulls are off to a rough start and it wouldn't be shocking to see the organization attempt […]

Anfernee Simons Returns To Practice
Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons (thumb) hasn't played since the team's first game of the season on October 25. After undergoing thumb surgery, he was expected to miss six weeks which would mark this Wednesday as a potential return. Malcolm Brogdon was the one to talk about Simons back at practice and possibly getting […]

Tyrese Haliburton Expected To Play On Monday
Indiana Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton (illness) was originally listed as questionable for the team's in-season tournament contest against the Boston Celtics. The star point guard came out at his usual time for shootaround though and head coach Rick Carlisle said that he expects Haliburton to play in this game. With his return to the lineup, […]

Pat Connaughton Will Remain Sidelined On Tuesday
Milwaukee Bucks guard/forward Pat Connaughton (ankle) has been ruled out of the team's in-season tournament game on Tuesday night against the New York Knicks. This will be his third consecutive game that he has missed from a right ankle sprain. Cameron Payne and MarJon Beauchamp have been receiving more minutes off of the bench in […]

Fantasy Basketball Early-Week Streamers: Week 7
After an exciting start, it's Week 7 of the 2023-2024 NBA season. While you want to have faith in the players you drafted, don't get too attached. You may feel confident about your draft decisions, but remember: stars are born and eroded every day. Take a moment to see what's on the other side of […]

Davion Mitchell Good To Go Monday
Sacramento Kings guard Davion Mitchell (illness) is available for Monday's meeting with New Orleans. He was out on Saturday against Denver with an illness but has recovered from the bug and isn't on the injury report anymore. The third-year player from Baylor has averaged 5.1 points and 2.6 assists for the season in 16.9 minutes. […]

CJ McCollum Available Again On Monday
New Orleans Pelicans guard CJ McCollum (lung) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Monday's in-season tournament clash against the Kings. McCollum returned from a collapsed lung last week but sat out the previous game against Chicago. He looked good in the two outings he had and even logged a season-high 38 minutes […]

Luke Kennard Expected To Miss Another 2-3 Weeks
Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Luke Kennard (knee) will now miss another 2-to-3 weeks due to the left knee bone bruise that he's been dealing with over the last couple of weeks. Two weeks ago, the team announced he'd be re-evaluated in that span and it looks like the bone bruise is affecting him more than they […]

Klay Thompson, Warriors Contract Talks "Dormant"
According to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, contract talks between the Warriors and guard Klay Thompson remain "dormant." Wojnarowski also added that extension discussions likely won't intensify until after the 2023-24 campaign. Thompson is eligible for a four-year, $220 million extension. But the 33-year-old has battled countless injuries over the years. Additionally, he's having a down season, […]

Chris Duarte Receives A Questionable Tag For Monday
Sacramento Kings guard Chris Duarte (knee) is considered questionable for their in-season tournament game against the New Orleans Pelicans on Monday night. The young wing was forced to miss their last game on Saturday with the same left knee soreness, but he may have received that game off to get some more rest for the […]

Tyrese Haliburton Questionable To Face Celtics
Indiana Pacers guard Tyrese Haliburton (illness) has received a questionable tag for the team's knockout game of the in-season tournament on Monday. The star point guard is dealing with an upper respiratory infection which caused him to miss Saturday's game against the Miami Heat. Since they're competing for the in-season tournament championship, the Pacers will […]

Jaylen Nowell Moves Into Starting Five
Memphis Grizzlies guard Jaylen Nowell will move into the starting five ahead of Saturday's game against the Phoenix Suns. The expectation was that Jacob Gilyard would start, but that is not the case. Instead, Nowell will move into the starting five with Derrick Rose (knee) sidelined for this game. Nowell does have more upside as […]

Devin Booker Will Play On Saturday
Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (ankle) will suit up for Saturday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. The superstar guard was uncertain coming into this game due to a right ankle sprain that forced him to miss Friday's contest. Despite that, Booker will play on Saturday and is expected to resume his normal role. It's worth […]
