Alex Len Will Start on Sunday

Atlanta Hawks center Alex Len will join the starting five for Sunday's game against the Detroit Pistons.

Omari Spellman Remains Sidelined on Sunday

Atlanta Hawks forward Omari Spellman (hip) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Spellman hasn't played since early December, but is targeting a return for Dec. 26, so hopefully he doesn't suffer a setback. Alex Poythress (ankle), Deandre Bembry, and Vince Carter will pick up extra playing time with the Hawks […]

Alex Poythress Will Play on Sunday

Atlanta Hawks forward Alex Poythress (ankle) is available for Sunday's game against the Detroit Pistons.

It's unclear how much playing time Poythress will […]

John Collins Ruled Out on Sunday

Atlanta Hawks forward John Collins (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Collins suffered a left ankle sprain on Friday, but was able to play through the issue.

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (12/23/18): NBA DFS Lineups

With nine games on the slate, I can already tell you that the Pelicans-Kings will be one of the higher scoring contests. I'm also eyeing the Celtics-Hornets game for assured value, but I will be mostly focusing on three games, NOP @ SAC, CHA @ BOS, and LAC @ GS. The Pelicans should have no […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (12/22/18): NBA DFS Lineups

With six games on the main slate, you really don't need all that much value tonight. You will need that one sleeper to come in clutch, but other than that, go with the safer, mid-tier priced options. Since Chris Paul is out, look for Brandon Knight to see a ton of minutes tonight. Other than […]

Atlanta Hawks guard Jeremy Lin (back) is available for Friday's game against the Boston Celtics.
