DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/21/23): NBA DFS Lineups

We've got a six-game slate and plenty of intriguing spots to work with. The 76ers-Kings game is the top matchup to target for DFS tonight, but the Hornets-Hawks and Rockets-Timberwolves are also appealing game environments.

Kyrie Irving Rocks The Jazz

Brooklyn Nets point guard Kyrie Irving piled up a season-high 48 points on 18-for-29 shooting in Friday's 117-106 victory over Utah.

Kyrie Irving Posts Full Stat Line In Loss To Phoenix

Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving had a huge all-around game on Thursday night but it wasn't enough to will the team to a win over the Phoenix Suns. He posted 30 points, seven rebounds, seven assists, four steals, and two blocks while knocking down 11 of his 27 shots and adding two more from deep. […]

Kyrie Irving Returns On Thursday

Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving (calf) is back in the starting five for Thursday's game against the Phoenix Suns. The superstar guard returns after missing Tuesday's contest due to right calf soreness. His return means Seth Curry heads to the bench, but his fantasy value won't be completely erased with a move to the second […]

Kyrie Irving Available On Thursday

Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving (calf) is available for Thursday's game against the Phoenix Suns. The superstar guard will get back in the lineup after missing Tuesday's game due to right calf soreness.

DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/19/23): NBA DFS Lineups

Seth Curry Starting Tuesday, Kyrie Irving Hopeful For Thursday

Brooklyn Nets guard Seth Curry will start in place of the injured Kyrie Irving (calf) on Tuesday against the San Antonio Spurs. Curry is coming off a 23-point effort and should be a good plug-and-play option for fantasy and DFS. Irving's absence is not expected to be long-term and the team is hopeful he can […]

Kyrie Irving Ruled Out Tuesday

Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving (calf) will not play Tuesday against the San Antonio Spurs. Irving was a late addition to the injury report on Tuesday with calf soreness and the injury will cost him at least one game. With Irving unable to go, the Nets will likely have their pick of Seth Curry, Ben […]

Kyrie Irving Questionable Against Spurs

Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving (calf) is questionable to play Tuesday against the San Antonio Spurs. Irving is listed with calf soreness, something that wasn't reported until later on Tuesday. Late additions to the injury report are never a good sign as Irving likely tweaked it at some point. If Irving sits, look for Seth […]
