Luke Kennard (SG, LAC): Week 21 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 24% of leagues ANALYSIS: As much as it pains me, it looks like Paul George and Kawhi Leonard are really going to miss the full regular season and most probably the playoffs, delaying the Clips' chances at a deep postseason run one more year. The positive […]

Bruce Brown (SG/SF/PF, BKN): Week 21 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 51% of leagues ANALYSIS: It's fascinating how this deep into the season writing about the Los Angeles Lakers and about the Brooklyn Nets is virtually the same, and entirely because of the wrong reasons. Anyway, we're here to discuss a bona fide positive the Nets found […]

Kyrie Irving Won't Suit Up Versus New York

Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving is ineligible to participate during Sunday's matchup versus the Knicks. It's a home game, so the veteran will need to sit out while adhering to New York City's mandate surrounding the COVID-19 vaccine. Irving will get to suit up against Orlando on Tuesday. However, in the meantime, Goran Dragic and […]

LaMarcus Aldridge Out Again On Sunday

Brooklyn Nets forward/center LaMarcus Aldridge (hip) won't play against the Knicks on Sunday. The veteran is currently dealing with a right hip issue, and he's missed two games already as a result. He's expected to be out at least another week, which will allow Nicolas Claxton and James Johnson to get some additional minutes. However, […]

Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (3/11/22)

Coming off a strong showing on Wednesday (5-2 and nearly 6-1 if not for the darn Celtics being unable to score one more basket in the final three minutes of an easy win!), I'm ready to get back at it with a solid 10-game Friday night slate! I did a weird thing yesterday - I […]

NBA DFS Prop Picks for PrizePicks: Friday, March 11th

For the first time in what was probably years for most NBA fans, they finally watched a full-game from start to finish. There’s no saying how much of the actual game they saw, but with the only two games being televised, it’s fair to say that more people watched this game then say, a Detroit […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/10/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups

We have a very rare two-game slate Thursday night, which naturally serves to completely change the usual dynamic behind DFS lineup construction. The very narrow player pool coupled with the fact four star-laden clubs are taking the floor make it particularly important to be selective on high-salary options and hit on the right mid-salary and […]

Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (3/9/22)

When you take a stand on games early in the day, sometimes the late injury news works out in your favor and sometimes it bites you. I was counting on Nikola Vucevic playing for Chicago on Monday night, but he didn't suit up and the Bulls failed to cover against the red-hot Sixers. We did […]

Mid-Week Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers for Week 21: Lonnie Walker IV, Jaxson Hayes, Patrick Beverley, Duncan Robinson

If you're one of those fantasy basketball players that sets a lineup at the beginning of the week, checks out, and then comes back seven days later to see how things shook out, this post is not for you. This is for those who are grinding through each day and keeping track of categories as […]

Kyrie Irving Dials Up Season-High 50-Point Outing In Win

Brooklyn Nets point guard Kyrie Irving was virtually unguardable during Tuesday's victory over the Hornets, dropping a season-high 50 points on a mesmerizing 15-for-19 shooting overall. Irving's production was a glimpse into the elite fantasy asset that he remains, even with his confounding status over the season's final month. In addition to the enormous scoring […]

Cam Thomas Available On Tuesday

Brooklyn Nets guard Cam Thomas (back) will be available for Tuesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. He has been battling back issues lately, but will suit up for this game. Thomas has made for a decent streaming option during games where the Nets are shorthanded. However, Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving, and Seth Curry are all […]

DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/8/22): NBA DFS Lineups

Happy Tuesday, Rotoballers! The Association has six games on the schedule for the early portion of the week, with some surprising matchups to watch for an early March evening. First, Brooklyn versus Charlotte has the chance of being a playoff preview. Meanwhile, the surging Pelicans visit the newest apple of the national media's eye in […]

Cam Thomas Set To Be Game-Time Decision Tuesday

Brooklyn Nets shooting guard/small forward Cam Thomas' (back) availability for Tuesday's game vs. Charlotte has been deemed to be a game-time call. After carrying a significant offensive workload off the bench throughout February, Thomas has scuffled over his last five outings, averaging 8.6 PPG while shooting 37.5% overall. An absence from Thomas would pave the […]

LaMarcus Aldridge Will Miss Next Two Contests

Brooklyn Nets center LaMarcus Aldridge (hip) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game vs. Charlotte and Thursday's matchup with the 76ers after undergoing an MRI on his hip. Aldridge has been an integral part of the Nets' second unit for the majority of the season, averaging 13.5 PPG while shooting a career-best 55.4 percent from […]

NBA Waiver Wire Streamers for Fantasy Basketball Week 20 (Mar 7 - Mar 13)

Most fantasy leagues start their playoffs either next week or in Week 21. Ahhh, don't you just love this time of the year!? Whether your playoffs have already started, or you're at the end of trying to make them in the first place (or just secure a better seed) there should be no more sentiment. […]

Fantasy Basketball Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 20: Immanuel Quickley, Donte DiVincenzo, Bones Hyland, Caleb Martin, Austin Reaves

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 Officially Active Versus Boston

Brooklyn Nets guard Seth Curry (ankle) will play on Sunday in Boston. Curry was listed on the latest injury report because of left ankle soreness, although it didn't seem that he was in any real jeopardy of missing this one. Nevertheless, the veteran has averaged 20.5 points while shooting nearly 55 percent from deep against […]

NBA DFS Prop Picks for PrizePicks: Sunday, March 6th

With a nine-game slate, options aren’t a problem. However, Sunday morning only offers two games to choose from, Suns @ Bucks and Knicks @ Clippers. When the New York and Los Angeles played in January, the primary options for each team took over and were the few options to find space among the defenses. It […]

Seth Curry Likely To Suit Up Versus Boston

Brooklyn Nets guard Seth Curry (ankle) is expected to play during Sunday's contest in Boston. The veteran currently occupies a spot on the injury report because of left ankle soreness. However, Curry should be good to go, although he draws a tough matchup against one of the best defensive units in the association. While he […]

Kevin Durant Logs 31 Points In Return To Action

Brooklyn Nets power forward Kevin Durant suited up in Thursday's defeat to Miami, marking his first game action since Jan. 15 after he sustained a sprained left MCL. Interim coach Jacque Vaughn did not specify a minutes limit for Durant, who wound up playing 35 minutes and used his time on the floor to drop […]

Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (3/4/22)

Friday nights in the NBA are where it's at! There's nothing better than being welcomed to the weekend by a big old 9-game slate. To recap last night's picks it was an overall loss mainly due to player props. The Hawks pulled off the upset to kick things off, but the Grizzlies weren't able to […]

Andre Drummond Receives Green Light To Suit Up Thursday

Brooklyn Nets center Andre Drummond (knee) has been cleared to play in Thursday's contest against the Heat as expected. Drummond sat out Tuesday due to a sore left knee, which allowed LaMarcus Aldridge to slide into the starting five. Even with Drummond (and Kevin Durant) back in the mix, Aldridge still holds a solid fantasy […]

Kevin Durant Returns Thursday, Won’t Have Strict Minutes Cap

Brooklyn Nets power forward Kevin Durant (knee) has rejoined the starting lineup for Thursday's contest vs. the Heat, having been out of action since Jan. 15 due to a sprained left MCL. Interim coach Jacque Vaughn disclosed that Durant would not be facing a preset restriction on his minutes, although the layoff is likely to […]

Andre Drummond Probable For Thursday's Game

Brooklyn Nets center Andre Drummond (knee) is listed as probable ahead of Thursday night's game against the Miami Heat. Drummond sat out the team's last game against the Toronto Raptors on Tuesday due to left knee soreness. LaMarcus Aldridge stepped into the starting lineup on Tuesday and had a strong game with 16 points and […]

Mid-Week Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers for Week 20: Lonnie Walker IV, Jaxson Hayes, Gabe Vincent, Jae Crowder

If you're one of those fantasy basketball players that sets a lineup at the beginning of the week, checks out, and then comes back seven days later to see how things shook out, this post is not for you. This is for those who are grinding through each day and keeping track of categories as […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/3/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups

Thursday brings us a seven-game slate that's expected to feature the return to action of Kevin Durant for the Nets and that also includes a Grizzlies-Celtics showdown in Boston and a Warriors-Mavericks rematch following Dallas' 107-101 win at Chase Center on Sunday night. With plenty of superstars in action, we have a well-stocked top shelf […]

Ben Simmons Considered Week-To-Week

Brooklyn Nets guard Ben Simmons (back) is unlikely to take the court anytime soon. The organization is currently considering him week-to-week with no clear timetable in sight. He hasn't been able to do 5-on-5 workouts yet, so it doesn't sound like Simmons is close. In fact, there's a chance that Simmons doesn't play at all […]

Kevin Durant Could Return Thursday

Brooklyn Nets power forward Kevin Durant (knee) is reportedly on track to make his return to action Thursday against the Heat, which would give the franchise a significant jolt from its recent slide. Durant has been sidelined since Jan. 15 due to a sprained left MCL, so fantasy managers will want to temper DFS expectations […]
