DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/19/19): NBA DFS Lineups

To be completely honest, we have a fairly lame 8-game slate. Only two games are really projected to be high-scoring affairs, while most of the games are out-of-conference contests between a "good team" and a "bad team." I have confidence, the Bulls-Heat, Hawks-Celtics, and Pacers-Mavericks will all be worth of stacking and should dominate the […]

It's trade o'clock fellow NBA fantasy nuts! And as you are used to by now, we have for you a surging player you would do well to sell while he is hot, and on the other end of the spectrum, a slumping guy who's value is currently a lot lower than should be. These fluctuations […]

Jared Dudley Remains Out For Wednesday’s Game

Brooklyn Nets small/power forward Jared Dudley will be on the sidelines for the third consecutive game Wednesday due to a left hamstring injury when his team takes on the Houston Rockets.

Brooklyn Nets forward Rondae Hollis-Jefferson (groin) is questionable for Monday's game against the Boston Celtics. He was able to practice on Sunday despite dealing with a right adductor strain. Rodions Kurucs and DeMarre Carroll would lose some playing time if RHJ is able to play on Monday.
