P.J. Washington Doubtful Against Kings

Charlotte Hornets forward P.J. Washington (illness) is listed as doubtful for Friday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He is reportedly dealing with a non-COVID related illness.

We were SO CLOSE to a clean sweep on Monday night, but the Wizards lost by six and couldn't cover 5.5, which is where they were when I wrote them up in this piece on Monday morning. I actually grabbed them shortly after at +6 so that game pushed for me, but I have to […]

A massive 13-game slate on Wednesday is the perfect chaser for last night's trio of competitive games.

FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (12/6/21): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

We have a 10-game slate on tap Monday night, one that could see a slew of big names out of action due to either conventional injuries or COVID-19 protocols. The fact there are 20 teams in action does afford us a player pool that can withstand a few absences, however, and we should be in […]

Mason Plumlee On Track To Play Sunday

Charlotte Hornets center Mason Plumlee (calf) was able to take part in Friday's practice. He is on track to play in Sunday's game against the Atlanta Hawks after missing the last four games. P.J.
