There are just three games on the main slate tonight, and the matchups are clearly separated by two tiers in terms of their fantasy appeal.

It's always easier writing this article on the day after a solid return on our bets from the previous day. Yesterday I went 2-1 on spreads and 1-1 on totals, but a 4-1 mark on props put it over the top and made it a solid, profitable day and I hope that you were able […]

Mason Plumlee (PF/C, CHA): Week 22 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 52% of leagues ANALYSIS: Saturday was a sad day. Facing the Mavs, Mason Plumlee couldn't crack the 15-FP barrier.

We're looking at an awkward three-game weekend slate in the NBA tonight, one where half of the teams are coming in on the second half of a back-to-back and none of the matchups really stand out from the pack.

NBA DFS Prop Picks for PrizePicks: Wednesday, March 16th

Wednesday’s 12-game slate makes for a great rebound from Tuesday’s grouping of just four games.

Phoenix and New Orleans played a tightly contested […]
