DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (12/19/22): NBA DFS Lineups
We have a solid nine-game NBA slate on tap Monday night, offering us a robust player pool to work with across the salary spectrum. There are some very good options in favorable matchups across each price point on the salary cap at each position, setting up what should be a fun night of lineup construction […]
Early-Week Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers for Week 10
After a few really nice weeks in the NBA schedule we have officially arrived a Christmas week, which means we have a front-loaded schedule and a funky second half of the week where we only have two games on Thursday, no games on Saturday (Christmas Eve) and then just the five feature matchups on Christmas […]
DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (12/17/22): NBA DFS Lineups
Let's play some weekend NBA DFS! Saturdays and Sundays are usually days that I try to take a bit of a break from covering the NBA, but I'm stepping in for my homeboy Kyle Ringstad with some NBA DFS picks for you today and putting on my DFS tout hat for a bit. I am […]
Clint Capela Out For 1-2 Weeks
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (calf) exited the team's last game on Wednesday with a left calf strain and it looks like he'll be out for an extended period because of it. He was officially ruled out for the next one to two weeks and should be re-evaluated at that time. In his absence, Onyeka […]
NBA DFS Prop Picks for 12/16/22 - Monkey Knife Fight
Friday brings a ton of potential with plenty of high-scoring matchups and a late-slate consisting of three Western Conference rivalries. With 10 games on the schedule and just the Oklahoma City-Minnesota game not listed on Monkey Knife Fight, it’s better we avoid that game for the most part anyway. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is still a safe […]
DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (12/16/22): NBA DFS Lineups
Happy Friday, RotoBallers! I hope you all had an excellent week to this point, and a great weekend is forthcoming! Let's get ahead of the weekend by making some nice coin on tonight's NBA slate.

Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (12/16/22)
It's a glorious night of NBA basketball incoming, with ten games on this slate and some fun matchups. Last night was a bit of a letdown as we had some blowouts, but the Utah-New Orleans game was a ton of fun, even if it didn't go my way in the end (I doubled down on […]
Trae Young Dishes 16 Assists In Loss To Orlando
Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young was just two assists shy of tying his career-high for assists in a single game on Wednesday night. In the team's 124-135 loss to the Orlando Magic, he finished with 19 points, 16 assists, and three rebounds. While his playmaking was great, his shooting numbers were nothing to write home […]
Mid-Week Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers for Week 9
We have four games today in the NBA and then a really solid 10-7-7 breakdown of games from Friday to Saturday that should allow optimal streaming for those who are willing to take the time to find the right players! I'm back to help you do that today with the latest installment of my mid-week […]
Clint Capela Doubtful To Return On Wednesday
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (calf) is doubtful to return for Wednesday's game against the Orlando Magic. The big man walked back to the locker room with a team trainer with a few minutes remaining in the fourth quarter. There's a good chance that he's done for this game. The hope is that he'll be […]
Onyeka Okongwu Returns To Bench Wednesday
Atlanta Hawks center Onyeka Okongwu will come off the bench Wednesday against the Orlando Magic. Fellow center Clint Capela (Achilles) is returning from a one-game absence which caused Okongwu to move back to his reserve role. Okongwu should have a 20-minute role off the bench, but his fantasy value is directly tied to Capela's health […]
Trae Young Good To Go On Wednesday
Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (back) will play on Wednesday versus Orlando. The 24-year-old didn't suit up on Monday in Memphis, opening the door for Trent Forrest to enter the starting lineup. Young shouldn't have any restrictions, so he needs to be in every fantasy lineup against a Magic team that has struggled this season.
DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (12/14/22): NBA DFS Lineups
We've got a typically big 10-game NBA slate on Wednesday night, and fortunately, the injury report isn't poised to rob us of many premium choices. There are some very good options in favorable matchups across each price point on the salary cap at each position, setting up what should be a fun night of lineup […]
Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (12/14/22)
It's been a multi-day rough patch for my bets lately as the weekend cold streak spilled over into Monday and Tuesday. I am looking to right the ship today and this just might be the slate of games to do it. We have 10 NBA games tonight and a number of viable underdogs and close […]
Bogdan Bogdanovic Off The Injury Report
Atlanta Hawks guard/forward Bogdan Bogdanovic (knee) isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Wednesday's meeting with Orlando. The 30-year-old got the night off on Monday to rest his surgically repaired right knee after logging 35 minutes versus Chicago on Sunday. Bogdanovic has scored at least 28 points in each of his last two games […]
Trae Young Could Miss Another Game On Wednesday
Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (back) is questionable against the Orlando Magic. The sharpshooter didn't play in Monday's loss to Memphis because of lower back tightness, opening the door for Trent Forrest to enter the starting lineup. Forrest, who finished with four points, four assists, two steals, and shot a rough 2-for-9 from the field, […]
Fantasy Basketball Injury Updates for Week 9 - Devin Booker, Khris Middleton, Andrew Wiggins
Welcome back RotoBallers. We're finally into December and the NBA landscape is starting to take shape. As always, injuries are a big factor. I'm here to help you stay up to date on injury news, and how it impacts your teams. I'm doing this midday on Monday for release Tuesday morning, so any news that […]
Trae Young Officially Out For Monday
Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (back) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. This shouldn't come as a surprise considering Young as listed as questionable coming into this game. However, it's bad timing with Dejounte Murray and Bogdan Bogdanovic also on the sideline. That being said, Aaron Holiday and Trent Forrest […]
Clint Capela Uncertain For Monday's Game
Atlanta Hawks center Clint Capela (Achilles) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. The big man has been on a tear lately with eight straight double-doubles. His absence would mean Onyeka Okongwu would start at center and see increased opportunities. Also, Frank Kaminsky would be the primary backup, but wouldn't be […]
Bogdan Bogdanovic Ruled Out For Monday
Atlanta Hawks guard Bogdan Bogdanovic (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. The veteran guard played 36 minutes on Sunday, so the team will take the cautious approach and rest him here. His absence should result in more playing time for Jalen Johnson and Jarrett Culver. Neither of them are […]
Trae Young Questionable For Monday
Atlanta Hawks guard Trae Young (back) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He has played in each of the last four games after missing a contest on December 2nd. Dejounte Murray (ankle) has already been ruled out, so losing Young would put the Hawks in a bad spot. Aaron Holiday […]
Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (12/12/22)
It's a relatively small slate today with only seven games, but it's going to be a great week as we don't really have any dead nights. Both Tuesday (5) and Thursday (4) have more games than usual and that is going to lead to what should be a great week for betting on NBA basketball. […]
DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (12/12/22): NBA DFS Lineups
We're set for a solid seven-game slate Monday night, one that many might consider an ideal size for the purposes of building tournament lineups in particular. The player pool is certainly large enough to differentiate in certain spots, and there are encouragingly six games with projected totals of at least 226 points as of early […]
Early-Week Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers for Week 9
I thought last week's schedule was solid, but this week, we have probably the most balanced schedule that we have seen this year with no more than 10 games (10 on Wednesday) on any day this week and a really strong middle of the week with five games on Tuesday and four on Thursday. That […]
DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (12/11/22): NBA DFS Lineups
FanDuel and DraftKings feature six-game slates on this fine Sunday. There's only one team on a back-to-back, so we shouldn't see too many weird lineups scratches that we'll need to adjust to. The Kings, Lakers, and Bucks are in the best spots for daily fantasy production, but this slate is pretty wide open as no one […]
Mitchell Robinson (C, NYK) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 9
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 58% of leagues ANALYSIS: The most recent news coming from Broadway (other than Trae Young sucking in MSG, just in case) are the ones concerning young Knicks forward Obi Toppin, who will miss the next two-to-three weeks before making a comeback. While that injury won't impact […]
De'Andre Hunter Questionable To Play On Sunday
Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (hip) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Chicago Bulls. The 25-year-old has missed the last four games due to a right hip flexor strain. His absence has resulted in A.J. Griffin getting quite a bit of playing time. He has done enough to the point where he […]
Bogdan Bogdanovic Sinks Seven Treys Versus Brooklyn
Atlanta Hawks guard/forward Bogdan Bogdanovic brought a flamethrower to Friday's matchup against the Nets, hitting 7-for-9 from downtown en route to a season-high 31 points. He was 12-for-18 overall from the field, whilst collecting two rebounds, three assists and one steal with two turnovers in 34 minutes. This was by far the most he has […]
NBA DFS Prop Picks for 12/9/22 - Monkey Knife Fight
Ruling Alperen Sengun’s poster over Zach Collins a charge is a tragedy. A dunk of the year candidate ruined by opinion. It’s a good call in the sense of Zach Collins went vertical, but outside of technicalities, there’s nothing about that play that signifies charge other than just that, a technicality. Technically, because Collins went […]
De'Andre Hunter Questionable To Make Return On Friday
Atlanta Hawks forward De'Andre Hunter (hip) has been given the questionable tag on Friday morning for the contest against the Brooklyn Nets. The 25-year-old has missed the last three games with the same hip flexor strain. In that time, the team lost two of their three games and lost Dejounte Murray in the process. If […]
