Mikal Bridges Goes Off For 44 Points Sunday
Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Mikal Bridges had a special outing with 44 points on Sunday against Orlando, finishing a 119-106 loss with 13-for-22 shooting. He hit six of nine attempts from deep and also padded his scoring total with a 12-for-12 effort at the line. Across 34 minutes of game action, Bridges added six rebounds, one […]
Seth Curry Out Again Versus Orlando
Brooklyn Nets guard Seth Curry (personal) won't play on Sunday against the Magic. The sharpshooter will miss his second consecutive outing. However, the Nets don't play again until Wednesday versus the Houston Rockets, so it's anyone's guess if Curry will be back by then. Considering he hasn't been a critical piece of Jacque Vaughn's rotation […]
Royce O'Neale Questionable On Sunday
Brooklyn Nets forward Royce O'Neale (knee) is questionable ahead of Sunday's meeting in Orlando. He logged 27 minutes on Saturday evening against the Miami Heat, finishing with eight points, two blocks, and one steal. However, the 29-year-old has a sore left knee and may sit this one out. If that's the case, Dorian Finney-Smith should […]
DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/26/23): NBA DFS Lineups
This should be an exciting slate, to say the very least. We have two matchups (Spurs-Celtics, Rockets-Cavaliers) with spreads of at least 14.5 points. At the same time, a group of the 14 teams in action tonight are either blatantly tanking or blatantly resting players in preparation for the playoffs. This is the time of […]
DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/25/23): NBA DFS Lineups
As expected on a Saturday, we have a meager five-game slate on tap in the NBA. The Jazz-Kings and Bucks-Nuggets matchups hold the highest implied total and profile as the top games to target for our DFS lineups, but it being a smaller slate means we'll need to consider all ten squads. Half of the […]
Seth Curry Won't Play Against Miami
Brooklyn Nets guard Seth Curry (personal) won't suit up on Saturday against the Miami Heat. The Nets will also play on Sunday in Orlando, so it's unlikely the 32-year-old will be available for that one, either. However, considering he's averaged only 9.6 points this season, his absence won't mean much from a fantasy standpoint.
DraftKings And FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/23/23): NBA DFS Lineups
Our Thursday night brings us the same number of NBA games as NCAA games, and surprisingly, the NBA landscape looks pretty clear as of now. Of course, that almost never lasts up until tipoff, but let's enjoy it while we can. We know that Paul George and Zion will be out, but no one else […]

I didn't jinx the Cavs, who covered for us and the Thunder went out and did the damn thing, too, pulling out a close win to not only cover but win outright against the Clippers. The only snag came when the Kings got blown out on the second leg of a B2B by the mighty […]
Dorian Finney-Smith Is Available Against Cleveland
Brooklyn Nets forward Dorian Finney-Smith (wrist) was originally listed as questionable for Tuesday's matchup with the Cleveland Cavaliers. He's now available for the team and will likely slot into his normal role of around 27-to-30 minutes per game. Fantasy managers should now expect the usual value out of Royce O'Neale and Yuta Watanabe since Finney-Smith […]

Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (3/21/23)
It's a fairly quiet Tuesday night in the NBA, but I couldn't resist the opportunity to pick some games today and see if I could continue the heater that I had going last week. Tomorrow and Friday are the big slates this week (10 games) so I'll be very interested in those nights for betting, […]
Dorian Finney-Smith Questionable Against Cavs
Brooklyn Nets forward Dorian Finney-Smith (wrist) is listed as questionable to play Tuesday versus the Cleveland Cavaliers. Finney-Smith is dealing with a wrist contusion in his shooting hand and may miss his first game since joining the Nets. If Finney-Smith is unable to go, look for a committee of Royce O'Neale, Yuta Watanabe and Seth […]

DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/16/23): NBA DFS Lineups
This five-game slate is already loaded with questionable tags.

The NBA wouldn't have it any other way, right? With both FanDuel and DraftKings having multi-position […]

Spencer Dinwiddie Hands Out Career-High 16 Assists
Brooklyn Nets guard Spencer Dinwiddie produced a career-high 16 assists as the team snuck past Denver 122-120 on Sunday. He had an awful time shooting the ball and even finished 0-for-7 from outside, but Dinwiddie rescued his fantasy line with his great playmaking, and he was also able to collect six rebounds, one steal and […]
DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/11/23): NBA DFS Lineups
Welcome to the weekend, RotoBallers. We have an unusually-large nine-game slate on tap tonight, highlighted by three games with implied totals north of 236 points. Several stars and important rotational players won't suit up tonight, leaving us to select value options in the wake. We don't love playing a bunch of Pistons and non-Luka Mavericks, […]
Mikal Bridges Leads All Scorers With 34 Points
Brooklyn Nets guard/forward Mikal Bridges scored for fun and had a game-high 34 points in Friday's dramatic 124-123 overtime victory against Minnesota. The emerging star shot 13-for-24 from the field and had a 4-for-8 record from deep with six rebounds and one assist across 47 minutes of action. Bridges has scored 30 points or more […]
Patty Mills Posts Vintage Performance Against Milwaukee
Brooklyn Nets guard Patty Mills turned back the clock a little bit on Thursday night despite the five-point loss to the Eastern Conference-leading Milwaukee Bucks. The 34-year-old Aussie posted 21 points, seven rebounds, four assists, one steal, and one block on 8-for-16 shooting while adding five made threes. This was the second-highest minutes he received […]
DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/9/23): NBA DFS Lineups
This six-game slate is already loaded with out and questionable tags.

The NBA wouldn't have it any other way, right? With both FanDuel and DraftKings […]
Spencer Dinwiddie Resting Thursday
Brooklyn Nets guard Spencer Dinwiddie (rest) joins a long list of players sitting out for Thursday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. Dinwiddie is one of three starters who will sit out Thursday, but should be good to go for Friday's game. Edmond Sumner, Seth Curry and Patty Mills should all see increased minutes on Thursday. […]
Royce O'Neale Will Not Play Thursday
Brooklyn Nets forward Royce O'Neale (knee) will sit Thursday's game versus the Milwaukee Bucks. The Nets are sitting multiple starters ahead of a back-to-back and O'Neale will get the same treatment as he deals with some knee soreness. Cam Thomas and Yuta Watanabe should re-enter the rotation on Thursday with the lengthy injury report.
Cameron Johnson Will Sit Out Against Bucks
Brooklyn Nets forward Cameron Johnson (knee) is listed as out ahead of Thursday's game versus the Milwaukee Bucks. Johnson is dealing with some knee soreness and the Nets are electing to rest him ahead of the back-to-back set of games. With Johnson out, Joe Harris and Seth Curry should see increased minutes. Patty Mills and […]
Nicolas Claxton Ruled Out Ahead Of Thursday Night
Brooklyn Nets center Nicolas Claxton (thumb/heel) has been ruled out of Thursday's game versus the Milwaukee Bucks. Claxton appears to be dealing with a couple injuries, but the Nets are entering a back-to-back set and have already ruled out multiple players. With Claxton unable to go, newly acquired Nerlens Noel may end up in the […]
3 NBA Contenders Who Could Bust In The Playoffs
At the start of every NBA season, most teams (with the exception of tanking teams), have the same dream; lifting the Larry O'Brien trophy by the end of the season. Of course, winning an NBA championship depends on many factors, most of which are outside the players, coaches, and owner's control. Assembling the most talented […]
Mikal Bridges Drops Third Consecutive 30-Point Game
Brooklyn Nets forward Mikal Bridges now has five 30-point games on the season and is currently on a streak of three in a row. The 26-year-old posted 30 points, five assists, one steal, and two blocks on 9-for-20 shooting overall, 4-for-10 from three, and 8-for-8 from the line. Bridges is now ranked 26th for fantasy […]

After my 2-1 career opening last Wednesday, I'm back and looking to continue with a winning record. There were unforeseen circumstances of Joel Embiid not playing in Miami but James Harden and company took care of business. The scorching hot New York Knicks dismantled my Nets +7 pick. Brandon Ingram dropped 41 on the road […]
Spencer Dinwiddie Flirts With A Triple-Double Sunday
Brooklyn Nets guard Spencer Dinwiddie enjoyed a nice all-around performance against Charlotte on Sunday, going close to a triple-double with 24 points, eight rebounds and eight assists.
