NBA DFS Prop Picks for 2/11/19 - Monkey Knife Fight

The Houston Rockets may have the most compelling player in the league right now, as James Harden has just taken his game to a new level. Can the Dallas Mavericks contain Harden?

Hot Waiver Pickups and Making Sense Of The NBA Trade Deadline

A LOT of "things" happened on Thursday. The most important "thing" is up for debate between two Eastern Conference teams. While Marc Gasol joining the Raptors may not have been seen as a blockbuster deal, I do see it having a drastic impact on the Raptors frontcourt. With Serge Ibaka and Marc Gasol anchoring the […]

DeMarre Carroll Questionable For Monday’s Game

Brooklyn Nets small/power forward DeMarre Carroll has been tagged as questionable for Monday’s contest versus the Toronto Raptors due left knee soreness. Carroll has missed just a single game since early November, but it appears the veteran is slowed in some capacity. Should he miss Monday’s game, Rodions Kurucs is a likely candidate to step […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/9/19): NBA DFS Lineups

A hefty eight game slate for us this Saturday and one game sticks out more than any other. The Rockets - Thunder game should be the most competitive and that means the upside is there.

Brooklyn Nets point guard D'Angelo Russell scored 23 points on 8-for-21 shooting in Friday's loss to the Chicago Bulls. He added six assists as well, but was just 1-for-8 from deep.

The NBA Trade Deadline has come and gone, and now teams are loaded up for a playoff push or, in some cases, a season-ending tank job. The best game of the night goes in Philly, where Denver is visiting and two of the league’s best centers tip off. Joel Embiid and Nikola Jokic are both […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/8/19): NBA DFS Lineups

For the second straight week, less than two-thirds of the league is playing on a Friday as there are only eight games on Friday's NBA Week 17 slate. There is only one marquee matchup -- Nuggets versus 76ers --however; there are many exciting things to watch as a result of the plethora of trades that […]

Greg Monroe Waived Hours After Trade

Center Greg Monroe was traded to the Brooklyn Nets on Thursday but will fail to suit up for the team as he was released just hours after the announcement of a deal. Brooklyn essentially paid to acquire a 2021 second-round Draft pick from Toronto along with Monroe, allowing the veteran to hit the free-agent market. […]

Caris LeVert is Available on Friday

Brooklyn Nets guard Caris Levert (foot) is available for Friday's game against the Chicago Bulls. It sounds like LeVert is ready to play after going through two practices this week. It wouldn't be surprising to see the Nets ease him back into action. LeVert hasn't played since November, so they probably won't push it. DeMarre […]

Greg Monroe And A Pick Heading To Brooklyn

The Toronto Raptors have reportedly traded center Greg Monroe and an undisclosed second-round draft pick to the Brooklyn Nets on Thursday, according to a source. The deal was announced shortly after the 3:00 p.m. ET deadline, but sometimes the paperwork just gets held up and there is a delay. A move to Brooklyn is good […]

DeMarre Carroll Fills Stat Sheet Off The Bench

Brooklyn Nets forward DeMarre Carroll was everywhere in Wednesday's 135-130 win over Denver, scoring 18 points with 10 rebounds, six assists, and four steals. He shot 3-for-8 from the field and 10-for-13 from the line. It was a much-needed improvement from Carroll after he failed to hit the 10-point mark in back-to-back games. He won't […]

D'Angelo Russell Drops Six Treys On Denver

Brooklyn Nets point guard D'Angelo Russell was hot from downtown on Wednesday against Denver, shooting 6-for-9 on his way to 27 points. He also had 11 assists and six rebounds, while his overall shooting stood at 10-for-23. Russell has upped his production massively since the turn of the year, and he's in a prime spot […]

NBA DFS Prop Picks for 2/6/19 - Monkey Knife Fight

When the NBA tips off Wednesday night, the prime matchup is the late game, with the San Antonio Spurs visiting the Golden State Warriors. The Spurs are not what they once were and are struggling away from home, with a 10-16 road record, but they’re solidly in a playoff spot and aren’t likely to give […]

Allen Crabbe is Available on Wednesday

Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Allen Crabbe (knee) is available for Wednesday's game against the Denver Nuggets. Crabbe has been sidelined the last two months due to a right knee issue. The Nets are likely going to ease him back into action, so fantasy owners shouldn't expect much from Crabbe. Rodions Kurucs and Shabazz Napier have taken […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/6/19): NBA DFS Lineups

This biggest question surrounding tonight's lineup construction will NOT be whether or not James Harden forces this game to be a blowout, but just how many points he scores on the way to this game becoming a blowout. Plenty of people will be fading Harden tonight, but you know I have optimism about this matchup […]

Joe Harris Set To Play In Wednesday’s Game

Brooklyn Nets shooting guard/small forward Joe Harris is set to suit up versus the Denver Nuggets come Wednesday, shaking off right hip soreness that kept him out Monday. Harris will likely reclaim his spot in the starting five, which should push Shabazz Napier -- who went 0-for-10 from three in his start -- back to […]

Allen Crabbe is Expected to Play on Wednesday

Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Allen Crabbe (knee) was able to fully practice on Tuesday and is expected to play in Wednesday's game against the Denver Nuggets, according to head coach Kenny Atkinson. Crabbe has been out since December 12 due to right knee soreness, but is finally on track to return. However, the Nets are crowded […]

D'Angelo Russell Held In Check During Loss

Brooklyn Nets point/shooting guard D'Angelo Russell finished with 18 points on 7-for-20 shooting during Monday’s defeat against the Milwaukee Bucks. The outing marks just the second time in the past nine games that Russell has been kept under 20 points, having seen his offensive role expand with Spencer Dinwiddie in street clothes. Monday’s performance can […]

Jarrett Allen Displays Defensive Prowess In Defeat

Brooklyn Nets center Jarrett Allen snatched 11 rebounds and blocked four shots during Monday’s loss to the Milwaukee Bucks. The second-year center has started all 53 games he has appeared in this season for Brooklyn, but remains a work in progress on the offensive end of the floor. For the time being, head coach Kenny […]

Shabazz Napier Goes Ice-Cold From Deep During Start

Brooklyn Nets point/shooting guard Shabazz Napier entered the starting lineup for Monday’s contest versus the Milwaukee Bucks due to an injury to Joe Harris and finished with 15 points despite going 0-for-10 from three-point range. It wasn’t just Napier, as Brooklyn as a squad went a combined 5-for-42 (11.9 percent) from deep. For owners who […]

Joe Harris Listed As Questionable For Monday’s Game

Brooklyn Nets shooting guard/small forward Joe Harris is tagged as questionable ahead of Monday’s contest versus the Milwaukee Bucks due to right hip soreness. Brooklyn continues to be banged up in their backcourt, with the potential loss of Harris leaving them thin on the wing. Harris shot an uncharacteristic 0-for-5 from three-point range Saturday, so […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/3/19): NBA DFS Lineups

If you are like me, you are excited about the freedom you will have tonight and I'm not talking about DFS lineups. Tonight is the Super Bowl and I probably don't have to tell you that, but I had no clue it was Super Bowl weekend until Friday afternoon. Still not feeling well so I'll […]
