According to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, speaking on NBA Countdown ahead of Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals, Boston Celtics center Kristaps Porzingis (calf) could be back for Game 4 on Monday. Wojnarowski indicated the team won't rush him back, which is understandable if the C's build a decisive lead in the series with Indiana. […]
Xavier Tillman Sr. Unavailable For Game 1 Versus Pacers Tuesday
On Tuesday, Boston Celtics forward Xavier Tillman Sr. (personal) was ruled out for Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Pacers. Both Tillman and Kristaps Porzingis (calf) are listed as unavailable. The 25-year-old's absence won't impact DFS play, as he has only seen action in three of 10 Celtics' postseason games, averaging 1.3 […]

NBA DFS: DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (5/21/24) - Today's Top Lineups
Welcome back, RotoBallers! Tonight, we've got Game 1 of the Eastern Conference Finals! The lineup construction is a little bit different than your typical DFS slate as these include a 1.5x multiplier Captain's spot on DK that carries elevated salaries for each player, and MVP (2x), STAR (1.5x), and PRO (1.2x) spots on FanDuel, where […]
Kristaps Porzingis Remains Out For Game 1
Boston Celtics center Kristaps Porzingis (calf) is out for Tuesday's postseason clash with the Pacers. DFS managers already expected him to miss this one, so the official update from the league's injury report isn't surprising. Fortunately, there's a chance he could return during the Eastern Conference Finals. But until he's back in the lineup, Al […]
Xavier Tillman Sr. Questionable For Game 1
Boston Celtics forward/center Xavier Tillman Sr. (personal) is questionable for Tuesday's postseason matchup with Indiana. The 25-year-old has averaged only 2.0 rebounds and 1.3 points throughout the postseason. Even with Kristaps Porzingis (calf) expected to miss at least a few more contests, Tillman isn't likely to make his way into the rotation anytime soon, even […]

We are down to the final four teams with Boston being the only top-seeded team remaining. Dallas was the […]
NBA DFS: DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (5/19/24) - Today's Top Lineups
We're all set for two Game 7 showdowns on Sunday, which should equate to especially heavy minutes for all four teams' first units. That gives us plenty of security as DFS players, but it also narrows an already compact player pool even a bit further. Nevertheless, we have plenty of options to consider at each […]

Boston Celtics guard Derrick White was back in form in Game 5 against Cleveland on Wednesday, recording 18 points, five rebounds, six assists, and two steals in a 113-98 win. After being limited to only five points in Game 4, White had twice as many points in the first quarter alone on Wednesday. He was […]
Al Horford Stuffs Stat Sheet In Game 5 Win
Boston Celtics forward/center Al Horford got his fingerprints all over Wednesday's 113-98 win over Cleveland, notching 22 points, 15 rebounds, five assists, one steal, and three blocks with six makes from downtown. At 37 years old, Horford became the oldest player in league history to finish a playoff game with at least 20 points, 10 […]
Jayson Tatum Close To Second Postseason Triple-Double In Wednesday's Win
Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum came very close to his second postseason triple-double as the C's closed out the Cavaliers on Wednesday with a 113-98 win. Tatum played his part on offense with a team-high 25 points and nine assists while grabbing 10 rebounds. He had a major impact at the other end as well, […]

NBA DFS: DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (5/15/24) - Today's Top Lineups
Welcome back, RotoBallers! We're set for another two-game postseason slate tonight that features a potential elimination game (Cavs-Celtics) and a critical Game 5 clash (Mavericks-Thunder). We have one major injury concern hanging over the night -- that being Donovan Mitchell -- but we're otherwise working with a relatively healthy player pool with plenty of solid […]
2024 NBA Mock Draft: Lottery Edition
This NBA mock draft is strictly what I would do as each team in the lottery. I will consider the strengths and weaknesses of the available prospects, the needs of the teams, and other relevant factors that impact player selections throughout this mock. Building an NBA roster is difficult. It requires patience and massive upside […]
Derrick White Fizzles Offensively Versus Cleveland
Boston Celtics guard Derrick White didn't have his best showing in Monday's win over the Cavs. He scored just five points, going 1-for-6 from the field and 1-for-4 from deep. Fortunately, the veteran at least had seven boards, three assists, and one steal, so DFS managers didn't get left out in the cold. White had […]
Jrue Holiday Looks Great On Monday Night
Boston Celtics guard Jrue Holiday had 16 points in Monday's win over Cleveland. He also had seven boards, five assists, three steals, and one block. The 33-year-old has been on a roll, amassing 34 points and shooting 7-for-12 from behind the arc in the last two games. While Holiday has been difficult to trust from […]
Jaylen Brown Gets It Done In Game 4
Boston Celtics forward Jaylen Brown scored 27 points in Monday's victory over the Cavs. He also amassed eight rebounds and one assist. The 27-year-old wasn't as productive as Jayson Tatum, who had a game-high 33 points. He also had five turnovers. However, Brown had another potent postseason showing, with the 2016 No. 3 overall pick […]
Jayson Tatum Leads The Way In Game 4
Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum had a game-high 33 points in Monday's win over the Cleveland Cavaliers. He added 11 rebounds, five assists, two steals, and one block. While Tatum struggled shooting the ball, going 11-for-25 from the field and 2-for-8 from deep, he still had one of his best showings of the postseason. The […]
Luke Kornet Available For Game 4
Boston Celtics center Luke Kornet (calf) has been cleared to play on Monday against Cleveland. He was initially a slight question mark for the contest after the team listed Kornet as probable on the injury report with right calf tightness. The seven-footer has provided quality backup minutes to Al Horford against the Cavaliers, with Kristaps […]

NBA DFS: DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (5/13/24) - Today's Top Lineups
Monday brings two more playoff games in the NBA. As we approach the Conference Finals, we are running out of two-game DFS slates. Let’s enjoy this one while we still can. The key to being successful in NBA DFS comes down to making adjustments during the day as injury information becomes available. But it's always […]
Luke Kornet Probable For Monday Night
Boston Celtics center Luke Kornet (calf) is probable for Monday's meeting with the Cavaliers. He's dealing with calf tightness. However, even with Kristaps Porzingis (calf) sidelined, Kornet has averaged 4.7 points and 3.0 points during the Conference semifinals, meaning his status for Game 4 won't make a difference for DFS participants.
Kristaps Porzingis Won't Play In Game 4
Boston Celtics center Kristaps Porzingis (calf) remains out for Monday's playoff contest versus the Cavaliers. Porzingis continues to work his way back from a right Soleus strain. With that in mind, it's possible he won't suit up at any point in the series. Fortunately, Al Horford has done a good job filling the void in […]

Doncic is battling through multiple injuries to keep the Mavericks competitive, […]
Jaylen Brown Cools Off In Game 2
Boston Celtics guard Jaylen Brown had 19 points in Thursday's loss to Cleveland. He added four rebounds and one assist. The 27-year-old erupted in Game 1 on Tuesday, finishing with 32 points. However, he cooled off in this one, shooting 7-for-17 from the field while missing all six attempts from behind the three-point line. In […]
Jayson Tatum Can't Lead Boston To A Win On Thursday
Boston Celtics forward Jayson Tatum had a team-high 25 points in Thursday's loss to the Cavaliers. He added seven rebounds, six assists, and one steal. The former Duke Blue Devil had only 18 points in Game 1. While he played better in this one, his efforts weren't enough to lead Boston to a win. Nonetheless, […]

Welcome back, RotoBallers! Tonight, we have a couple of Games Two's. We only have one player questionable and it's a pretty big one.

Kristaps Porzingis Remains Out For Game 2
Boston Celtics center Kristaps Porzingis (calf) remains out for Thursday's matchup against the Cavaliers. The 28-year-old suffered a right Soleus strain during the previous round versus the Miami Heat. Fortunately, team reporter Chris Forsberg posted a video to X on Wednesday that showed Porzingis doing some shooting. Nonetheless, he could still miss the remainder of […]
