DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/19/23): NBA DFS Lineups
Recommending lineup picks for tonight's All-Star Game is bordering on being an impossible task. What makes this so hard is that the teams haven't yet been picked, so we have to use sheer guesswork to figure out which players will get the most minutes and which might hog usage and fantasy production. Another oddity is […]
Kevin Love, Cavs Agree To Contract Buyout
According to ESPN senior NBA insider Adrian Wojnarowski, Kevin Love and the Cavaliers have agreed to a contract buyout. The former UCLA Bruin has played for Minnesota and Cleveland since entering the league in 2008 and has averaged 17.2 points, 10.5 rebounds, and shot 37.2% from deep during his career. Miami remains the frontrunner to […]
Kevin Love Finalizing Buyout From Cleveland

Ricky Rubio Sitting Out Against Sixers
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Ricky Rubio (illness) will be sidelined for Wednesday's contest against the Philadelphia 76ers. Rubio is feeling under the weather and will not be able to go after being listed as questionable from a non-COVID illness. Caris LeVert should see ample minutes off the bench on Wednesday with Rubio ruled out.
Cedi Osman Downgraded To Out Wednesday
Cleveland Cavaliers forward Cedi Osman (neck) will not play against the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday. Osman was a late addition to the injury report with neck spasms and will sit out before the All-Star break. Danny Green will make his debut and should immediately see a role. Isaac Okoro and Dean Wade should also see […]
Danny Green To Make Cavaliers Debut Wednesday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Danny Green will make his return to Cleveland in Wednesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. Green was recently picked up from waivers by Cleveland, one of his former teams. Green will officially be available Wednesday, but his role has not been determined yet. Green will likely battle with Isaac Okoro, Caris LeVert […]
Cedi Osman Questionable Wednesday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard/forward Cedi Osman (neck) is considered questionable for Wednesday's meeting with Philadelphia. He is troubled by neck spasms and playing basketball obviously isn't ideal in such a situation. Osman has had a decent role in the Cavaliers rotation, averaging over 20 minutes per game, but he's badly struggled for form this month and […]
Ricky Rubio Officially Questionable Against 76ers
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Ricky Rubio (illness) did not participate in shootaround on Wednesday and is still dealing with a non-COVID illness, which has landed him on the injury report as questionable. The 32-year-old seems to get a game off every few games while being eased back on to the court, so it wouldn't be surprising […]
DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/15/23): NBA DFS Lineups
After a relatively quiet Tuesday night, we're right back to a massive 11-game ledger Wednesday. The ledger is loaded with attractive options all across the salary cap, which should make for a particularly fun night of lineup construction and tournament play in particular. That notion is further supported by the fact there are plenty of […]
Donovan Mitchell Fires In Game-High 41 Points
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell produced a game-high 41 points in Monday's 117-109 win over San Antonio, shooting 16-for-26 from the field and 6-for-13 from downtown.

We're teed up for a massive 11-game slate Monday night as the NBA re-takes the spotlight from the NFL following a small two-game slate on Super Sunday.

Danny Green Nearing Agreement With Cleveland
According to team reporter Chris Fedor, free-agent guard Danny Green is nearing a deal with the Cavaliers.

With […]

Ricky Rubio Getting The Night Off On Friday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Ricky Rubio (knee) won't play on Friday night against New Orleans. The veteran had eight points and two steals in 16 minutes on Wednesday versus the Piston. However, with the Cavs going into a back-to-back, Rubio will sit out on Friday before likely returning for Saturday's matchup with the visiting Chicago Bulls. […]
Donovan Mitchell And Darius Garland Will Return Friday
Cleveland Cavaliers guards Donovan Mitchell and Darius Garland are both off of the injury report and are expected to suit up on Friday against the New Orleans Pelicans. They both sat out on Wednesday leaving the team very thin in the backcourt, but they'll get their star power back in time for a matchup against […]
Ricky Rubio Unavailable For Friday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Ricky Rubio (rest) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. He has appeared in five straight games, but he'll sit out their next contest due to injury management on his left knee. His absence shouldn't have a huge impact with Donovan Mitchell and Darius Garland both healthy […]
Fantasy Basketball Mid-Week Streamers: Week 17
Today is the NBA trade deadline and there were some major deals that shook the league last night, with Kevin Durant going to Phoenix being the biggest. We can expect a few more deals today, but probably nothing of that scale but you never know, right? With only four games today and two games on […]
Darius Garland And Donovan Mitchell Out Wednesday
Cleveland Cavaliers guards Darius Garland (thumb) and Donovan Mitchell (groin) have been downgraded to out Wednesday against the Detroit Pistons. Garland and Mitchell were originally slated to play before being downgraded to questionable and then ruled out before game-time. Raul Neto and Caris LeVert are expected to join the starting lineup and would be cheap […]
Donovan Mitchell Questionable Wednesday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Donovan Mitchell (groin) could be forced to sit out Wednesday's game against Detroit, with the team regarding him as questionable for the contest. He is bothered by left groin soreness and having some time off might actually benefit Mitchell, as he has averaged only 14.6 points across his past five appearances. Caris […]
Darius Garland Questionable For Wednesday
Cleveland Cavaliers point guard Darius Garland (thumb) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's matchup against Detroit. Garland has been in superb form lately but could miss his 10th game of the season as he is nursing right thumb soreness. The potential absence of Garland could give Ricky Rubio his first start of the season and […]
DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/8/23): NBA DFS Lineups
We're set for a nine-game Wednesday night slate in the wake of LeBron James' momentous achievement Tuesday, yet tonight's array of contests could ultimately produce even more headlines. There's Kyrie Irving's debut in Dallas for a marquee matchup against the Clippers, but the early portion of the ledger may house the most compelling battle of […]
Caris LeVert To Play On Monday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Caris LeVert (hamstring) is available for Monday's game against the Washington Wizards. He'll make his return to the lineup after missing each of the last two games due to a hamstring issue. LeVert is likely to see increased playmaking opportunities with Ricky Rubio (rest) sidelined. The return of LeVert should mean less […]
Ricky Rubio Ruled Out For Monday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Ricky Rubio (rest) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Washington Wizards. The 32-year-old played 20 minutes off the bench during Sunday's contest. That being said, the Cavs will take the cautious approach and rest Rubio considering he's still working his way back from an ACL injury. Raul Neto should […]
Caris LeVert Could Sit Out On Monday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Caris LeVert (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Washington Wizards. This doesn't come as a surprise considering LeVert has missed the last two games. The Cavs will likely wait until later in the day before they make a final decision. However, LeVert is dealing with hamstring soreness, so […]

We're poised for an eight-game Monday night slate that features four games with projected totals of over 230 points and five games with spreads of 6.5 points or less.

Caris LeVert Questionable Again On Sunday
Cleveland Cavaliers guard Caris LeVert (hamstring) remains questionable for Sunday's game in Indiana. He didn't play on Thursday in the win over Memphis, allowing Cedi Osman to finish with 21 points in 32 minutes from the bench. If LeVert is ruled out again, Osman should draw interest for those in deeper fantasy formats. However, it […]
