Kevin Durant Finishes A Losing Effort With 36 Points
Brooklyn Nets forward Kevin Durant had a 36-point outing Friday against Indiana, but the team was still forced to take another loss. Brooklyn got taken down 128-117 despite Durant adding nine rebounds and eight assists with two blocks. His shooting didn't go particularly well from deep, as Durant finished 3-for-12 with the three-ball, but he […]

Rotoballer's Weekly NBA Fantasy Watch List
While playing daily fantasy sports is a quick way to make a buck, many still appreciate the long grind of season-long fantasy leagues. The waiver wire can make or break your fantasy team during the season. At times, a player seems like the right fit for your roster, but little did you know that player […]
Yuta Watanabe To Miss Next Two Games
Brooklyn Nets forward Yuta Watanabe (hamstring) will miss at least the next two games. The 28-year-old will sit out Wednesday and also Friday's game against the Indiana Pacers. This is a shame because Watanabe was actually playing well for the Nets. Now, the Nets will likely use a committee approach to fill the void with […]
Yuta Watanabe Remains Out Wednesday
Brooklyn Nets forward Yuta Watanabe (hamstring) will sit out a second consecutive game Wednesday against Toronto. He missed Tuesday's clash versus Philadelphia with right hamstring tightness and the problem hasn't cleared up yet. Watanabe has impressed lately and his absence is definitely felt. With Seth Curry (ankle) also out Wednesday, the rest of the bench […]
Seth Curry Sits Out Wednesday's Action
Brooklyn Nets guard Seth Curry (ankle) will be rested Wednesday against Toronto. The Nets are completing a back-to-back set and Curry sits out the action after logging 24 minutes Tuesday versus Philadelphia. The team is managing his left ankle and it might take a while until Curry is fully healthy and ready to play in […]
Ben Simmons Posts Full Stat Line Against Sixers
Brooklyn Nets forward Ben Simmons returned to Philadelphia on Tuesday night and stuffed the stat sheet in a 106-115 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers. The point forward posted 11 points, 11 assists, seven rebounds, three steals, and three blocks while shooting 4-for-7 from the floor and 3-for-6 from the free-throw line. He continued his four-game […]
Yuta Watanabe Out Against Philly
Brooklyn Nets forward Yuta Watanabe (hamstring) won't play against the 76ers. The former Raptor has been fantastic recently, averaging 15 points and shooting 66% from deep in the last three games. However, he has a tight hamstring, so Markieff Morris, who had eight points, seven rebounds, and a steal against Memphis on Sunday, may be […]
Ben Simmons Starting Against Former Team
Brooklyn Nets forward/center Ben Simmons will start on Tuesday in Philadelphia. Nicolas Claxton (illness) will return after missing Sunday's win over the Memphis Grizzlies. However, with Simmons coming off a season-high 22-point effort in that one, he will remain in the starting lineup against his former team. The 26-year-old is seemingly returning to form, scoring […]

Early-Week Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers for Week 6
Optimizing our streamers this week is a little tricky in that the league doesn't play on Thursday for Thanksgiving.

Welcome to the weekend, RotoBallers. We have a tricky little four-game slate on tap tonight in the NBA.

Ben Simmons Logs His Best Game Of The Season
Brooklyn Nets forward Ben Simmons has been the talk of the league with how much he has underperformed thus far.

Kevin Durant Scores Game-High 35 Points In Win
Brooklyn Nets forward Kevin Durant notched another game of at least 25 points bringing his total to the same as Michael Jordan at 16 in a row. He seemed unstoppable all night long as he even hit 59.1% of his shots from the floor. In the team's win over the Portland Trail Blazers, the superstar […]

Kyrie Irving Could Be Back On Sunday
Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving (suspension) has a chance of returning on Sunday versus the visiting Grizzlies, according to ESPN senior NBA insider Adrian Wojnarowski. The multi-time All-Star won't play on Thursday against Portland, his eighth consecutive absence, for failing to apologize for posting a link to an antisemitic film. Outside of Irving's hideous 28.0% […]

Ben Simmons Available On Tuesday Against Sacramento
Brooklyn Nets forward Ben Simmons (knee) has been listed as available on Tuesday night as the Nets take on the Sacramento Kings. The 26-year-old point-forward did not play in their last game on Sunday and in the games he played before that, he's only played 16, 24, and 14 minutes respectively. Expectations shouldn't be too […]
Nicolas Claxton Will Suit Up On Tuesday
Brooklyn Nets center Nicolas Claxton (eye) was forced to exit his last game against the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday with an eye contusion. It seems as though he avoided any major concerns as he's now listed as available for the team's game on Tuesday night. Claxton should be back in his starting role and […]
