BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 18% owned on Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Had the Mark Ingram news been made sooner, Hightower would've been on last weeks list.

If you're still actively looking for research on sleepers for fantasy football, congrats on making this far and you have a deep league.

Full Story »Brook Lopez (C, BKN) - Top Center on FanDuel 12/14
MATCHUP/VALUE: vs ORL, $7,900 Brook Lopez is the best center option on the board tonight. He is the most consistent, and Nikola Vucevic is not great at playing defense. Lopez has two bad games in a row now, but that will not continue to happen. He is all but sure to score over 30 fantasy […]

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs HOU, $6,400 Sticking with the Denver Nuggets theme tonight, let's move right along to Kenneth Faried, who is just too cheap tonight against the Houston Rockets. The Rockets love to push the pace of the game, which will add more rebound opportunities and shots to Faried's total, and they also barely play defense. […]

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs HOU, $7,200 Danilo Gallinari is a little bit expensive on FanDuel (he is a great play on DraftKings tonight), but he is still worth it. The Houston Rockets are one of the worst teams in the league against the small forward position, and Gallinari is going to take full advantage of that tonight. […]
Full Story »John Wall (PG, WAS) - Elite FanDuel Option for 12/14
MATCHUP/VALUE: @ MEM/ $9,900 John Wall should be a staple of a majority of DFS lineups tonight, as he plays the Memphis Grizzlies, who are not great against the point guard position. Wall has been extremely solid of recent, scoring in the upper 50s on a rather consistent basis. His price tag has definitely come […]
Full Story »Jameer Nelson (PG, DEN) - Value Play for 12/14
MATCHUP/VALUE: vs HOU, $4,200 Jameer Nelson is a must play tonight against the Houston Rockets, who are very uptempo and rarely play defense. Nelson is going to start for the Denver Nuggets with Emmanual Mudiay out of the lineup. In 38 minutes last game, Nelson scored over 38 fantasy points. His price tag is closer […]
