Kevin Durant Nearly Misses A Triple-Double On Wednesday

Brooklyn Nets forward Kevin Durant nearly missed out on a triple-double during Wednesday's win over Charlotte, finishing with 29 points, nine rebounds and eight assists. Durant has played well this season. However, he's been getting a ton of work, averaging just under 37 minutes. With the Nets hosting the Hawks on Friday for the first […]

Kyrie Irving Scores 33 Points On Wednesday

Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving finished with 33 points in the win over Charlotte on Wednesday. Although he shot a rough 1-for-7 from deep, he still led both teams in scoring while adding nine assists, five rebounds, and four blocks. This was arguably Irving's best showing since returning from a lengthy suspension. While the 30-year-old […]

Edmond Sumner Is Available Against Charlotte

Brooklyn Nets guard Edmond Sumner (glute) was originally listed as questionable for the Wednesday night contest against the Charlotte Hornets. He's been dealing with a glute contusion that forced him to miss the team's last game on Sunday. A couple of hours before tipoff, he's now listed as available. Ever since Kyrie Irving returned, the […]

Ben Simmons Still Out On Wednesday

Brooklyn Nets forward Ben Simmons (calf) remains out for Wednesday's game against Charlotte. The 26-year-old has been sidelined by a strained left calf.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 2% of leagues ANALYSIS: It was all good vibes in the Nets' Friday game against the Raptors with Brooklyn getting to a ridiculously large lead at some point... but most of all because of the return to the basketball court of long-time absentee T.J. Warren (out […]

Fantasy Basketball Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 8: Malik Monk, Killian Hayes, Joe Harris

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 […]

Ben Simmons To Miss Multiple Games Due To Strained Leg

Frustration builds as the Brooklyn Nets struggle to keep their best defensive player on the court. Ben Simmons will miss multiple contests due to a strained leg.

Royce O'Neale (SF, BKN) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 7

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 38% of leagues ANALYSIS: The good thing about being a low-maintenance guy is that no matter what happens around you, you always remain the same. Ask Royce O'Neal after he saw all of Kyrie Irving, Ben Simmons, Cam Thomas, etc... miss games here and there while […]

Yuta Watanabe Won't Play On Sunday

Brooklyn Nets guard Yuta Watanabe (hamstring) won't play on Sunday against Portland. The 28-year-old has missed the last two games because of a right hamstring strain, although he may be nearing a return. Watanabe has played well this season, averaging a career-high 8.1 points and shooting 57.1% from deep, so the Nets are certainly missing […]
