Jarrett Allen Will Sit Again On Tuesday
Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen (eye) has been ruled out ahead of Tuesday's game versus the Charlotte Hornets. Allen continues to deal with discomfort after taking a hit to the face last week and will miss his second straight game. Lamar Stevens should get another spot start with Evan Mobley shifting to center. Stevens is […]
Darius Garland Returns Against Charlotte
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Darius Garland (quadriceps) will return for Sunday's meeting with the Charlotte Hornets. The 23-year-old sat out against the Miami Heat on Friday night, allowing Caris LeVert to enter the starting lineup. While LeVert will head back to the bench, the absence of Jarrett Allen (eye) should permit him to see enough minutes […]
Darius Garland May Miss Another Game On Sunday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Darius Garland (quadriceps) is questionable for Sunday's game in Charlotte. The 23-year-old didn't suit up on Friday in the loss to Miami because of a right quad contusion, allowing Caris LeVert to enter the starting lineup. Donovan Mitchell will get a usage boost if Garland is unavailable, primarily since he'll oversee the […]
Jarrett Allen Not Expected To Play On Sunday
Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen (eye) is doubtful for Sunday's meeting with Charlotte. While he scored only six points on Friday in the loss to Miami, he made up for it by adding 13 rebounds and four blocks. However, Allen sustained a right eye contusion in that one, so it appears he won't be available […]
Donovan Mitchell Racks Up 42 Points Against Miami
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell put up a game-high 42 points in Friday's 119-115 defeat to Miami. With Darius Garland (quadriceps) sitting out the action, Mitchell had all the keys to the offense and put up 25 points in the first half alone. It was the third time this season Mitchell managed to score at […]
Darius Garland Tagged As Questionable For Friday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Darius Garland (quad) is considered questionable for Friday's game against the Miami Heat. He is a new addition to the injury report after his 25-point performance during Wednesday's game. His absence would mean that Ricky Rubio would likely move into the starting five. Also, Donovan Mitchell and Caris LeVert would probably have […]

Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (3/10/23)
Continuing the theme of "fewer games than usual on a big NBA night," we have just six NBA contests tonight. Two of these games are rematches from Wednesday, making them feel a bit like traps (closely projected games where we could just take the same team that won Wednesday again tonight). It's a hairy slate […]
Darius Garland Drops 25 Points In Win Over Miami
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Darius Garland took control of the offense and led the team to a good win to stay in the race for a top-three seed in the East. The 23-year-old dropped 25 points, seven assists, and two steals on 8-for-16 shooting overall and 3-for-6 from three. Garland and Donovan Mitchell just go back […]

Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (3/8/23)
It's a relatively small slate for a Wednesday night compared to what we are used to during the NBA season, but with seven games on the docket, there are enough options for us to take some shots on some wagers. After a solid finish to last week, I was able to pull my overall record […]
Donovan Mitchell Shakes Off Injury To Put Up 40 Points
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell produced a game-high 40 points as the team managed to beat Boston 118-114 in overtime Monday. The 26-year-old star played through a sprained finger, adding 11 rebounds to his tally with four assists and one block in 47 minutes. Mitchell reached 40 points for the second time already in March, […]
Donovan Mitchell Cleared On Monday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (hand) has been cleared to play during Monday's game against the Boston Celtics. He left Saturday's game due to a left hand issue, but didn't have any problems during his pregame routine on Monday. That being said, Mitchell will play and should play his normal amount of minutes. Fantasy managers […]
Donovan Mitchell Questionable Monday With Finger Sprain
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (finger) is questionable to play Monday versus the Boston Celtics. Mitchell left Saturday's game with the injury after playing just 24 minutes and finishing with 20 points, four assists and two steals. If Mitchell is unable to go, Caris LeVert will likely move into the starting lineup. LeVert is averaging […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 17% of leagues ANALYSIS: Make it 22 starts in a row for the younger of the Kenyon Martins. KJ Martin isn't going anywhere ROS and he's now an established starter in the Rockets rotation with a lot of upside and improving by the day while getting […]
DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/4/23): NBA DFS Lineups
Welcome to another glorious Saturday, RotoBallers. We have a typical Saturday slate on tap for tonight with five games, featuring a Wolves-Kings affair that figures to be a shootout and a Rockets-Spurs matchup in which we might see the least amount of defense ever played on an NBA court. Pricing on the stars feels pretty […]
Donovan Mitchell Battling A Groin Problem Again
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell hurt his groin again in Wednesday's 117-113 loss to Boston. Mitchell was injured in the third quarter but was able to finish the game, putting up an impressive 44 points in 44 minutes. However, it's now unclear if he will be able to stay in the lineup for the upcoming […]
Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (2/28/23)
We took yesterday off as it was an unusually light Monday for games with only four but today we are primed for a large slate of NBA action as we have ten games on the final day of February. I will be avoiding the biggest spreads today and focusing on a few games with more […]
RIVAL Fantasy NBA Over/Under DFS Prop Picks: Monday, February 27, 2023
Only four games on Monday with around 15 options to choose from. Last night Damian Lillard put up the second 71-point performance of the season, his career-high, and tying eighth for most points scored in a single game. Jayson Tatum, Joel Embiid, LaMelo Ball, and Brandon Ingram, are all likely candidates to build off of […]
Donovan Mitchell Puts Up 35 Points On Toronto
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell dropped eight threes en route to a 118-93 win over the Toronto Raptors while leading all scorers. The superstar combo guard registered 35 points, six rebounds, four assists, three steals, and one block while shooting 13-for-21 from the floor and 8-for-12 from deep. Mitchell was virtually unstoppable while the Raptors […]
DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/26/23): NBA DFS Lineups
We have an exciting Sunday slate with ten teams on the main slate to wrap up the weekend. The Kings-Thunder matchup grades out the best as it features the highest implied total (by six points) and two squads that bleed fantasy points to opposing teams. The Wolves-Warriors and Clippers-Nuggets affairs are also highly intriguing, while […]
Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (2/24/23)
The Thunder lost in overtime last night, preventing me from getting a clean sweep on the first slate back from the break. They led for large stretches of that game and blew a lead late in the fourth before losing by just one point in the extra frame, too. These things happen, but I was […]
Evan Mobley Explodes Offensively In Losing Effort
Cleveland Cavaliers forward Evan Mobley turned in one of his best offensive performances of the season in a six-point loss to the Denver Nuggets on Thursday. He was able to register 31 points, nine rebounds, one assist, one steal, and one block while shooting 12-for-19 from the floor and 2-for-4 from three. After the game, […]
DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/24/23): NBA DFS Lineups
The NBA returned last night after a full week off and there were no shortages of surprises as Damian Lillard was randomly rested and then Fred VanVleet was a last-minute scratch, too. I know a lot of folks are pretty disheartened by the NBA injury situation and all these guys resting, teams tanking, etc... But […]
Fantasy Basketball Watch: NBA Trade Deadline Winners and Losers
The 2023 NBA trade deadline was for the ages. After 11 trades, the NBA landscape shifted like the ice age. Contenders became afterthoughts; losers received a shot of hope; overall, the league experienced a seismic shift in power. On the fantasy basketball side, though, there weren't as many losers. Since the play-in tournament's inception, typically […]
Ricky Rubio Ruled Out On Thursday Against Nuggets
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Ricky Rubio (injury management) has been ruled out in the first game back after the All-Star break due to left knee injury management. The Spaniard sat out of the team's last game against the Philadelphia 76ers with an illness at the time, so this game may have just been a planned rest […]
DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/23/23): NBA DFS Lineups
I brought you into the break here at RotoBaller and I'll bring you out the other side as well. The Association is back with a robust nine-game slate to get us back in the mood after a week of stepping out with college kids and hockey players missing teeth. This is the time when players […]
Fantasy Basketball Mid-Week Streamers: Week 18
It feels like forever ago that I wrote the companion piece to this one, the early week streamers for Week 18. A full week off from games is hopefully going to leave the players refreshed and gave us an opportunity, as managers, to re-evaluate our rosters as well. With the fantasy basketball playoffs being right […]
Donovan Mitchell Drops 40 Points In All-Star Game
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell put up a double-double and was the second-leading scorer on Team Giannis, behind the new record-holder Jayson Tatum, as they won 184-175. The star combo guard finished the game with 40 points, 10 assists, four rebounds, and three steals while shooting 15-for-25 overall and 8-for-17 from deep. Mitchell sure didn't […]
