DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/2/19): NBA DFS Lineups

I have the flu. I'm going to make this quick. My apologies, but hopefully I'll feel better tomorrow and return with another just, oh-so-exciting DraftKings article. Warriors-Lakers is aimed to be the highest scoring, but I would suggest targeting both the Suns-Hawks and the Kings-76ers contests if you are looking for the most upside. The […]

Nicolas Batum Does A Little Bit Of Everything Friday

Charlotte Hornets guard/forward Nicolas Batum contributed across the board in Friday's win over the Memphis Grizzlies. Batum scored just seven point on 2-for-4 shooting, but chipped in 10 rebounds, three assists, two steals and two blocks in 35 minutes. From a production standpoint, Batum has had a down year with less shot attempts leading to […]

Malik Monk Finishes With 20 Points In Win

Tony Parker Cleared To Suit Up Friday

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/1/19): NBA DFS Lineups

Wow!!! Just 10 teams in action on the 16th Friday of the NBA season, marking a season-low five games on the docket for the weekend's opening night. Unfortunately, there is only one real interesting matchup, although there is always something mystical when the Celtics and the Knicks clash in MSG. The most intriguing matchup is […]

Buy, Sell, or Hold: Al Horford and Anthony Davis

As the trade deadline of the NBA is approaching, and so are the trade deadlines in most Fantasy leagues, it's the last train to try and make your teams better by trading for out-of-form players who you believe will pick it up later. The time is also running out to cash in on your guys […]

Kemba Walker Performs Respectably

Charlotte Hornets point guard Kemba Walker had a decent outing Wednesday against the Boston Celtics. Walker scored 21 points on 9-of-20 shooting with two assists. This was a good performance for Walker who had been in the slumping recently. In the previous two games, Walker averaged 12 points a contest on 28.5 percent shooting. The […]

Tony Parker A Late Scratch Wednesday

Charlotte Hornets point guard Tony Parker (ankle) will not play Wednesday night against the Boston Celtics. Parker was a late addition to the injury report as the Hornets ruled him out less than an hour before tip-off. The injury is listed as soreness so this is more than likely a maintenance day for the veteran […]

RotoBaller NBA Recap: The G.O.A.T. Heir

Very rarely do I dream. I mean, I zone out throughout the day and drift into a land far removed from my current situation quite often. But, head to the pillow in my ThunderCats jammies and REM cycle activated? Blank space... Last night was different. As I laid in a restful slumber, thoughts of Victor Oladipo putting […]

Malik Monk Comes Up Big For Charlotte Versus Knicks

Charlotte Hornets shooting guard Malik Monk played a key role in Monday's 101-92 win over the Knicks, nailing four triples in the fourth quarter, which the Hornets won 30-21. Monk had been quiet for a while and it seems like he was heading towards another unspectacular line, but the Kentucky product came to life in […]

Jeremy Lamb Gets Close To Double-Double On Monday

Charlotte Hornets shooting guard Jeremy Lamb was very close to his fourth double-double of the season on Monday, finishing a 101-92 win over the Knicks with 15 points and nine rebounds. He also had three assists, one block and one steal in 27 minutes on the floor. Lamb shot poorly from deep with a 1-for-4 […]

Kemba Walker Held In Check By Knicks

Charlotte Hornets point guard Kemba Walker was held in check by the Knicks on Monday, but his team still managed to grind out a 101-90 win. Kemba shot 5-for-16 from the field and 2-for-6 from downtown in 36 minutes on the floor. He wasn't the only starter to struggle either, but luckily for Charlotte, their […]

Kemba Walker Will Play on Monday

Charlotte Hornets guard Kemba Walker (neck) will play in Monday's game against the New York Knicks. Walker suffered a mild neck strain on Friday and was unable to practice on Sunday.

Kemba Walker Misses Practice on Sunday

Charlotte Hornets guard Kemba Walker (neck) missed practice on Sunday after suffering a mild neck strain on Friday. He left Friday's game after hurting his neck on a loose ball scramble.

With 2:06 remaining in the game, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Walker collided during a scrum following Antetokounmpo's block of Michael Kidd-Gilchrist's shot. There has been no timetable given for how long the 2019 […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/26/19): NBA DFS Lineups

With only five games total, it's unfortunate DraftKings won't consider the Pelicans-Spurs game as part of the main slate.....Selfish. Anyway, after last nights smorgasbord of competitive games, expect the complete opposite tonight. The teams that are playing aren't terrible, it's just the matchups are NOT enticing. Even though four games offers some type of variety […]

Buy, Sell, or Hold: Beat the Trade Deadline

Usually, in this column, we take a look at a player who is in great form but is unlikely to sustain it and suggest you sell the s*** out of him before he sees a drop-off, and we find a guy who is playing poorly, but will turn it around, and point him out so […]

RotoBaller NBA Recap: James Harden Puts On A Show At MSG

New York City is known as the "City that never sleeps," and Knicks' coach David Fizdale probably can attest to that after last night.

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/17/19): NBA DFS Lineups

What is this?! A five-game slate on a Thursday? Technically six, but the Knicks and Wizards are in London for a game which tips off at 3:00 PM EST and isn't on the slate. But, still... Five games?! My excitement over finally having options is likely to result in failure, but do pardon me for […]

NBA Weekly Streamers for Week 14 (Jan 14 - Jan 20)

With less than two months left until most fantasy playoffs, the playoff race is heating up in many leagues. If you are in the midst of this race there is less incentive to keep out of form or injured, border-line players. I know, I like Jonas Valanciunas too. But I just had to let him […]

Jeremy Lamb Goes For 19 Points In Victory

Charlotte Hornets shooting guard Jeremy Lamb collected 19 points on 8-for-15 shooting during Monday’s win over the San Antonio Spurs.
