Montrezl Harrell Lands With Charlotte At Trade Deadline
Center Montrezl Harrell has reportedly been dealt to the Charlotte Hornets in exchange for center Vernon Carey Jr. and point guard Ish Smith. Harrell averaged 14.1 points and 6.7 rebounds across just 24.3 minutes in 46 games for the Wizards during his first season with the franchise. But with the return of Thomas Bryant, Washington's […]
Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (2/10/22)
I was feeling great about last night's bets sitting at 3-0 and heading into the evening games. And I felt even better when I saw the Warriors race out to an 11-0 lead against the Jazz. And then I went to bed because I have to get up early every day. When I woke up […]
James Bouknight Sidelined On Wednesday
Charlotte Hornets rookie guard James Bouknight (wrist) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He is dealing with a right wrist sprain. The former UConn Husky has been buried on the bench this year, but the Hornets are extremely short-handed right now, so it's unfortunate he's unable to go. Gordon Hayward […]

Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (2/9/22)
Another really solid night last night as the Suns and Kings took care of business as our main bets. Brandon Ingram came up short of his prop despite a good matchup, but the fourth bet that I added mid-day hit as Reggie Bullock hit four threes to go over his 2.5 prop. I'll take 3-1 […]
NBA DFS Prop Picks for 2/9/22 - Monkey Knife Fight
There might only be six games Wednesday, but two massive trades yesterday make the last games of the night enormous question marks right until tip-off. C.J. McCollum and Larry Nance Jr. were traded to the Pelicans in exchange for Josh Hart, and Nickeil Alexander-Walker essentially, and Domantas Sabonis, Justin Holiday, and Jeremy Lamb were traded […]
Gordon Hayward Is Out Indefinitely
Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward (ankle) is looking at missing an extended amount of time. This is a tough blow to both Hayward and the Hornets roster. It doesn't seem like Hayward can catch a break after recently returning from COVID-19 protocols. The Hornets didn't offer a timetable for Hayward, so fantasy managers can expect […]
Gordon Hayward Ruled Out For Wednesday's Game
Charlotte Hornets small forward Gordon Hayward (ankle) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Chicago Bulls. The 12-year veteran sprained his left ankle in the first quarter of Monday's game against the Toronto Raptors. He didn't return to the game after the injury, so it's no surprise that the team is holding him […]
James Bouknight Dealing With Wrist Injury
Charlotte Hornets rookie point guard James Bouknight (wrist) was ruled out for Monday's game against the Toronto Raptors due to a right wrist sprain. It's been a rough year for the rookie out of Connecticut, who was selected 11th overall in this past year's draft. He's seen limited playing time off the bench. In the […]
Gordon Hayward Won't Return To Monday's Game
Charlotte Hornets small forward Gordon Hayward (ankle) has been ruled out for the remainder of Monday's game against the Toronto Raptors. The veteran suffered a left ankle injury in the first quarter of the game when he took an awkward fall. He walked off the court on his own, but was in noticeable pain. Prior […]
Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers for Week 17: Brandon Clarke, Willy Hernangomez, Gabe Vincent, Onyeka Okongwu
We're getting down to the wire here and you NEED to eke out wins here if your team is on the cusp of a playoff berth.

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/7/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups
We have a much smaller slate than usual for a Monday this week, as only five games are on tap.

There's plenty to […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/6/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups
Back-to-back five-game slates on the weekend in the NBA, and we have a very interesting one in store for tonight with Giannis and Luka at the top, a myriad of intriguing mid-to-high range plays, and scarce value. The Pelicans-Rockets and Bucks-Clippers affairs are profiling to be the top ones to target in our lineups as […]
DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/5/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups
We have a typically-small five-game Saturday slate on tap tonight, and it's not going to be the easiest night to dissect as value appears to be slim outside of OKC. The top two games to target look to be the Bucks-Blazers and Heat-Hornets as those matchups hold high totals and weak defense on the Blazers […]
Gordon Hayward Active For Friday
Charlotte Hornets forward Gordon Hayward is available for Friday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He hasn't played since Jan. 21 but has been ramping up his conditioning. Hayward will make his return to the court and should play his normal role of around 30 minutes. Kelly Oubre Jr. is likely going to take the biggest […]

A nine-game slate this Friday opens up the weekend with seven interconference matchups.

Kelly Oubre Jr. Downgraded To Out
Charlotte Hornets forward Kelly Oubre Jr. (ankle) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. This marks the second game in a row that Oubre has missed due to a left ankle sprain. It's a shame because Oubre was starting to heat up before the injury. Gordon Hayward will be […]
DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/29/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups
We have a modest six-game slate in the NBA tonight, and it's certainly not lacking for star power. Embiid, Doncic, Harden, Curry, Morant, Tatum, Sabonis, and Irving are the highlights at the top of the salary scale, so we're going to have our pick of the litter among the studs. Three of the six matchups […]
Kelly Oubre Jr. Won't Play Versus Heat
Charlotte Hornets forward Kelly Oubre Jr. (ankle) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Miami Heat. It's a shame that Oubre won't get to follow up his 39-point performance on Wednesday. However, he should be back soon and fantasy managers should monitor him in fantasy formats. Oubre appears to be heating up, so […]

NBA DFS Prop Picks for 1/26/22 - Monkey Knife Fight
Wednesday’s 10-game slate is anchored by six inter-conference matchups, with eight teams playing on the second night of a back-to-back. Generally, it’s much easier to simply avoid teams that are playing multiple games over the span of just a few days, but ignoring context like that will likely only hurt your betting and ultimately your […]
