Welcome back to RotoBaller's weekly fantasy basketball waiver wire column and schedule breakdown. We've reached the weird week that is All-Star week, which is actually two weeks long, but with a break in the middle for the All-Star Game itself. The NBA season just keeps on chugging along, and so does the fantasy basketball season. […]

Torrey Craig (SF, PHX) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 18

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 3% of leagues ANALYSIS: This is a kinda-speculative pick, but not that much when you consider we're already past the trade deadline, and barring a surprising buyout-market pick by the Suns... then Phoenix's rotation at the SF/PF position doesn't feature many warm bodies going forward, let […]

Tim Hardaway Jr. (SG, DAL) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 18

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 13% of leagues ANALYSIS: It's been a while since tweener Tim Hardaway Jr. moved from his classic SG role to manning the SF slot in Dallas, making room for Luka Doncic and Spencer Dinwiddie to operate the one-and-two-guard spots. That's great for the future of Timmy […]

Early-Week Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers for Week 18

The NBA All-Star break splits Week 18 right down the middle. We have a ton of action tonight and Wednesday in the association and a fairly light schedule on Tuesday and Thursday. Then we get an entire week off (what will we do with ourselves?) until the following Thursday, February 22nd when games resume. All […]

Fantasy Basketball Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 18: Tim Hardaway, Devonte' Graham, Immanuel Quickley

The deeper a fantasy basketball league, the harder it is to hit a winner with your last few picks. It is also harder to find decent help from the waiver wire if your late-round picks don't do you justice. If you picked up a few stinkers, don't lose hope just yet. I will try to […]

Seth Curry Out Again On Monday Night

Brooklyn Nets guard Seth Curry (adductor) won't play on Monday night against the New York Knicks. This will be the sharpshooter's fifth consecutive absence as he continues to be plagued by a left adductor strain. There have been rumblings of a buyout, so it's possible he may have already played his final game in Brooklyn. […]

The Cut List - Who To Drop for Fantasy Basketball Week 18

What's up, RotoBallers! Yes, it's the week of the Super Bowl, and most people are going to be enthralled with football for one more day. With that being said, it could be the best time to drop bad players and add some good ones while everyone else is distracted! The trade deadline shook some rosters […]

Nicolas Claxton Will Play Against Philadelphia

Brooklyn Nets center Nicolas Claxton (hamstring) will suit up on Saturday against the Philadelphia 76ers. He didn't play in Thursday's win over the Chicago Bulls because of right hamstring tightness, which allowed Day'Ron Sharpe to get the start and finish two points shy of a double-double. However, with Claxton back in the mix, Sharpe's streaming […]

Mikal Bridges Will Make Nets Debut Against Philly

Brooklyn Nets forward Mikal Bridges is available against the Philadelphia 76ers. The 26-year-old, who averaged a career-high 17.2 points in 56 games this season with the Suns, was acquired by Brooklyn in the blockbuster deal that sent Kevin Durant back to Phoenix. With that said, Jacque Vaughn hasn't revealed if Bridges will see a full […]

Cameron Johnson Available On Saturday

Brooklyn Nets forward Cameron Johnson is available for Saturday's Atlantic Division matchup with the Philadelphia 76ers. The 26-year-old averaged a career-high 13.9 points in 17 games with the Suns this season before being traded for Kevin Durant ahead of the deadline. It's hard to say how much work Johnson will get and how quickly he'll […]

Seth Curry Out Again Versus Philadelphia

Brooklyn Nets guard Seth Curry (groin) won't suit up for Saturday's clash with the Philadelphia 76ers. The 32-year-old will now miss his fourth consecutive game with an adductor strain, which could allow the red-hot Cam Thomas, who scored at least 43 points in three of his last four games, to stay in the starting lineup. […]

Cameron Johnson Questionable For Debut

Brooklyn Nets forward Cameron Johnson is questionable ahead of Saturday's meeting with Philadelphia. Although the former Sun is in Brooklyn, the trade is listed as pending on the league's official injury report. Johnson averaged a career-high 13.9 points in 17 games with Phoenix this season. However, he missed a few months after undergoing surgery for […]

Mikal Bridges Questionable On Saturday

Brooklyn Nets forward Mikal Bridges is questionable for Saturday's meeting with Philadelphia. Bridges made his way to Brooklyn in the deal that sent superstar Kevin Durant to Phoenix.

Nicolas Claxton Expected To Return On Saturday

Brooklyn Nets center Nicolas Claxton (hamstring) is expected to play on Saturday against the 76ers. Claxton has had a fantastic season, averaging a career-high 13.2 points, 9.2 rebounds, and 2.6 blocks.

Kevin Durant Traded to Suns - Fantasy Basketball Impact

As hectic as this year's NBA trade deadline has been, with 28 out of the 30 teams making at least one trade, early Thursday morning at 1:00 am, a blockbuster trade went down that not many expected. However, if you had read my previous article, you could have gotten a glimpse of the future thanks […]

Day'Ron Sharpe Available On Thursday

Brooklyn Nets center Day'Ron Sharpe (foot) is available for Thursday's game against the Chicago Bulls. This is good news for the Nets with Nicolas Claxton (hamstring) sitting out this contest.

Nicolas Claxton To Miss Thursday's Game

Brooklyn Nets center Nicolas Claxton (hamstring) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Chicago Bulls. It sounds like the Nets aren't going to push Claxton who is dealing with hamstring soreness. Day'Ron Sharpe and Ben Simmons should both see extended playing time with Claxton on the sideline. Neither player has great streaming appeal, […]

T.J. Warren Headed To The Suns

According to ESPN NBA Insider Adrian Wojnarowski, T.J. Warren is on his way to the Phoenix Suns as part of the blockbuster deal that sent Kevin Durant as well. As part of the Brooklyn Nets, Warren didn't have much value as he only saw around 18 minutes per game and averaged 9.5 points, 2.8 rebounds, […]

Jae Crowder Finally Moving On From Phoenix

According to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, Jae Crowder finally had his wish granted and was traded away to the Brooklyn Nets (with Mikal Bridges and Cameron Johnson) for Kevin Durant and T.J. Warren.

Cameron Johnson Traded To Brooklyn

According to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, Cameron Johnson is part of a package that was sent to the Brooklyn Nets for Kevin Durant.

Mikal Bridges On His Way To Brooklyn

According to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, Mikal Bridges is on his way to Brooklyn along with Jae Crowder, Cameron Johnson, four first-round picks and a 2028 first-round pick swap for Kevin Durant and T.J. Warren. Bridges has spent four and a half seasons in Phoenix since he was drafted in 2018 and now he'll move to […]

Kevin Durant Moved To Phoenix In Blockbuster Deal

According to ESPN's Adrian Wojnarowski, Kevin Durant has been traded to the Phoenix Suns in the small hours of the morning on Wednesday.

Seth Curry Remains Out On Thursday

Brooklyn Nets guard Seth Curry (groin) is out again on Thursday against Chicago. Curry will now miss his third straight game, meaning Cam Thomas should continue to take his place in the rotation.
