Get all the information at your fingertips, courtesy of the Rotoballer crew! If you missed it last week, I covered EVERYTHING. So, in this, I'll just cover what has changed since last […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/6/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups

We have yet another five-game slate on a weekend night in the NBA, which is just fine by me. The Grizzlies are the only team that's entering tonight on the second half of a back-to-back set, but they're also the top-rated team in my model with their matchup against the hapless Rockets. The Pelicans-Nuggets game […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/5/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups

There are five games on the main slate tonight in the NBA, which is something we should be used to by now as weekends have typically been on the lighter side in terms of games played. That's OK, though, as it allows us more ability to zero in on our preferred plays as opposed to […]

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 […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/2/22): Top NBA DFS Lineups

Happy Wednesday, RotoBallers! I hope last night's slate of NBA DFS treated you well. I'm continuing to work on my NBA model, trying to gather more information to make sure all of you are as armed as possible going into each slate. Even with the small adjustments I've made so far, it seems to be […]

NBA DFS Prop Picks for 3/2/22 - Monkey Knife Fight

Competition increases every night and every one of last night’s games came down to the waning minutes of the fourth quarter. The NBA is in a great spot right now, all thanks to the players. Entertainment has been peaking on a nightly basis and younger players are proving not only why they belong in this […]

Isaiah Thomas Signing 10-Day Deal With Hornets

Free-agent guard Isaiah Thomas is signing a 10-day deal with the Charlotte Hornets. The 33-year-old guard has spent time with both the Los Angeles Lakers and Dallas Mavericks this season. The Hornets are looking for depth behind LaMelo Ball and Thomas could be a decent option. There's a good chance that Thomas only sees minutes […]

Fantasy Basketball Injury Updates for Week 19 - Ben Simmons, Darius Garland, Josh Giddey, OG Anunoby, Michael Porter Jr., Chris Paul

We're now entering fantasy playoffs time for NBA basketball, so you should be double-checking things regardless. There's no room for mistakes when you're up for a 'ship. I've lost matchups by a few steals or a few rebounds in the last few seasons, for example. That's the margin. No errors! Since the stakes are high, […]

DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/1/22): NBA DFS Lineups

Happy Tuesday and happy March, Rotoballers! The Association gives us a medium-sized six-game slate tonight, and it's looking like a split schedule with three enticing matchups for DFS and three... not-so-enticing games. Regardless, I will sift through the player pool, find the players I want to have in my NBA lineups, and then recommend them […]

Cody Martin Is Available On Monday

Charlotte Hornets guard Cody Martin (back) is available for Monday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. His status was uncertain coming in, but it sounds like Martin will play in the second game of this back-to-back set. That being said, Miles Bridges and Kelly Oubre Jr. should go back to their normal roles on Monday. Martin […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/28/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups

We have a solid seven-game slate on tap Monday night as the first full week of post-All-Star-break play begins. There are multiple matchups that should be very competitive, including a Timberwolves-Cavaliers clash and a Bulls-Heat showdown in Miami that would see Chicago recapture a share of the top spot in the conference with a victory. […]

Cody Martin Will Be Available On Sunday

Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Cody Martin (back) will be available for Sunday's game against the Detroit Pistons. Martin had previously been listed as doubtful for the game, but he was upgraded about an hour before tip-off. He is dealing with lower back tightness. We may see Martin's minutes limited in Sunday's game, especially given the fact […]

Cody Martin Doubtful For Sunday

Charlotte Hornets guard Cody Martin (back) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Detroit Pistons. He was a late addition to the injury report due to back tightness. The Hornets are likely to split up his playing time between Kelly Oubre Jr. and Miles Bridges. Both players could be possible streaming options or […]

Jalen McDaniels Won't Play Sunday

Charlotte Hornets forward Jalen McDaniels (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Detroit Pistons. McDaniels hasn't played in over a month, but there was some hope he'd suit up here. The organization hasn't given a clear timetable for McDaniels yet. That being said, he's not worth holding in most formats with P.J. […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/27/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups

We have a small five-game slate to work with tonight as the NBA decided to go with a trio of afternoon matchups that fall outside of the main slate. It's not going to be an easy slate to dissect as three of the games (Nuggets-Blazers, Pistons-Hornets, Clippers-Rockets) hold solid, if unspectacular, implied totals while the […]

Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (2/26/22)

It was a rough night for player props (0-3), but I went 3-1 on totals and spreads with the only miss there being a big whiff on the Raptors who got blown out by the Hornets. There were some sweaty moments in there as the Spurs needed three overtimes to finally put Washington away and […]

Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (2/25/22)

Last night the NBA returned from a week-long break and whet our appetites for basketball action. Tonight, we get nine more games and our first glimpse at the James Harden era in Philly and the Malcolm Brogdon-Tyrese Haliburton experiment in Indiana. The only really big surprise last night was my beloved Cavaliers faltering against Detroit […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/25/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups

Happy Friday RotoBallers! As usual, we have a jam-packed Friday night slate, filled with some juicy matchups. However, this is going to be quite the weird slate with multiple incomplete active rosters after yesterday's trade deadline. These articles focus on the overall best plays, which are typically more suited for cash games. However, with larger […]

NBA DFS Prop Picks for 2/25/22 - Monkey Knife Fight

Basketball was gone for too long and yesterday’s games featured all inter-conference matchups in some quality, semi-competitive basketball. Nearly every game was close for the first half, but the healthier, better equipped team won in nearly every case and three conference powerhouses, the Warriors, Suns, and Celtics, all dominated when it mattered, late in their […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/24/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups

The NBA returns from the All-Star break with a solid seven-game slate Thursday night. What always makes the first night of post-All-Star-break play intriguing is that teams come in with a degree of rest that isn't possible at any other point in time past Opening Night. The injury report is unsurprisingly light overall on short-term […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/17/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups

After a particularly extended pre-All-Star-break portion of the season, the NBA is finally ready for its week-long pause to its 2021-22 campaign. Most teams have already begun their sabbatical, but there are still five games to play Thursday night. Despite the modest number of games, there are still plenty of big names in action and […]

Well, they say that all good things have to come to an end, right? The cruel reality that you can't win every night reared its ugly head last night as I went 0-4 with the first goose egg that I've taken in a few weeks. The Spurs hurt the most as they led or within […]

Happy Tuesday, RotoBallers! I hope last night's slate of NBA DFS treated you well. I'm continuing to work on my NBA model, trying to gather more information to make sure all of you are as armed as possible going into each slate. Even with the small adjustments I've made so far, it seems to be […]

The fantasy playoffs are almost here - the most wonderful time of the year! If you haven't secured your place yet, don't be hesitant to do all you can to do so! If your lower-ranked guys are doing poorly, it can prove very costly to wait around for them to come around as it may […]

Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (2/14/22)

It was a pretty sweet week of betting last week and with the extra time that I had because of the way football was winding down to just one final game, I was able to put out something every day last week. I hope you enjoyed last night's Super Bowl and cashed some bets, but […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/14/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups

After ceding the spotlight to the NBA on Super Sunday, the NBA is back at full force with an exciting nine-game slate Monday night. The Association naturally has its own milestone event coming up, as there are only four more nights of action prior to the commencement of All-Star Weekend. None of the games Monday […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/13/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups

Welcome to Super Bowl Sunday, RotoBallers. With the biggest sporting event of the year starting at 5:00 pm CT this afternoon, the NBA squeezed 10 games in yesterday along with two early-afternoon games today to avoid any overlap. The Wolves-Pacers game is the more appealing of the two from a DFS standpoint, holding the higher […]

Mason Plumlee (PF/C, CHA): Week 18 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 52% of leagues ANALYSIS: The Charlotte Hornets didn't light any fireworks this past trade deadline, but they did a very solid move in acquiring super-sub Montrez Harrell to bolster the big-men rotation while not losing that much going the other way. Montrezl will go from playing […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/12/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups

Welcome, RotoBallers, to Super Bowl Eve. We have an unusually large 10-game slate on tap for tonight and just two afternoon games tomorrow as the NBA, rightfully, wants to avoid conflicting with the most-watched event of the year. It is a really tricky slate, though, as a group of top teams we'd love to target […]
