Luka Doncic Downgraded To Out On Friday

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (heel) will have to wait for at least one more game to debut the new, electric backcourt alongside Kyrie Irving. A right heel contusion has proved to cause too much pain so he was downgraded and will not play against the Sacramento Kings on Friday. This doesn't rule him out […]

As hectic as this year's NBA trade deadline has been, with 28 out of the 30 teams making at least one trade, early Thursday morning at 1:00 am, a blockbuster trade went down that not many expected.

Kyrie Irving Traded To Dallas - Fantasy Basketball Impact

Without a doubt, Kyrie Irving is arguably one of the most naturally gifted players in the National Basketball Association. He's a fantastic ball-handler and can get to the rim with ease. However, the former Duke Blue Devil's career has been surrounded by controversy, ultimately impacting his ability to win an MVP. The NBA trade deadline […]

Christian Wood Cleared For Monday's Game

Dallas Mavericks center Christian Wood (thumb) has been cleared for Monday's game against the Utah Jazz. The 27-year-old will make his return to the court after an eight-game absence due to a fractured left thumb. His return will come at a good time with the Mavericks currently shorthanded.

Fantasy Basketball Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 17: Kenyon Martin Jr., Malik Monk, Immanuel Quickley

The deeper a fantasy basketball league, the harder it is to hit a winner with your last few picks. It is also harder to find decent help from the waiver wire if your late-round picks don't do you justice. If you picked up a few stinkers, don't lose hope just yet. I will try to […]

DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/6/23): NBA DFS Lineups

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. There are also a pair of contests with double-digit favorites, but we should still have plenty of players logging heavy minutes. While there are some big-name […]

Dorian Finney-Smith On The Move To Brooklyn

The Mavericks are sending Dorian Finney-Smith and Spencer Dinwiddie to the Nets in exchange for Kyrie Irving and Markieff Morris. Finney-Smith has spent his entire career in Dallas, averaging 8.3 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 1.4 assists. Although the 29-year-old isn't the most consistent offensive option, he will certainly give Brooklyn a much-needed boost on the […]

Spencer Dinwiddie Returning To Brooklyn

The Mavericks are sending Spencer Dinwiddie, Dorian Finney-Smith, and multiple draft picks to the Nets in exchange for Kyrie Irving and Markieff Morris. Dinwiddie has averaged 17.7 points, 5.3 assists and shot 40.5% from deep in 53 games this season. However, he'll now return to Brooklyn, a city where he played for five seasons. Dinwiddie […]

Kyrie Irving Heading To Dallas

Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving is being traded to the Mavericks, per The Athletic's Shams Charania. In exchange, Dallas is sending Spencer Dinwiddie, Dorian Finney-Smith, and multiple draft picks.

DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/5/23): NBA DFS Lineups

We're back to the typical small weekend slate on Sunday, as there are four games on the main slate in the NBA tonight. Denver, New Orleans, and New York are all playing on the second leg of their back-to-back sets, and there are several high-salaried players listed as questionable, so we have a lot to […]

Spencer Dinwiddie Available Against The Warriors

Dallas Mavericks guard Spencer Dinwiddie (knee) is available ahead of the meeting with the Warriors. The veteran was listed as questionable on Friday because of right knee injury management. However, he's good to go, which is good news considering the Mavs won't have Christian Wood (thumb) or Luka Doncic (heel) on Saturday night. Dinwiddie has […]

DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/4/23): NBA DFS Lineups

The NBA spoils us as this is the second consecutive Saturday where we've been treated to a full slate of NBA games. We'll take what we can get. However, Saturdays can be tricky with coaches deciding to rest key players, so keep your eyes peeled on the news and injury updates. We have a handful […]

Spencer Dinwiddie Questionable Against Golden State

Dallas Mavericks guard Spencer Dinwiddie (knee) is questionable for Saturday's game at Golden State. The Mavs are already down Luka Doncic (heel) and Christian Wood (thumb), so being without Dinwiddie wouldn't be an ideal scenario. Nevertheless, if he can't go, Tim Hardaway Jr. and Dorian Finney-Smith should be the most productive fantasy options. At the […]

Luka Doncic Will Not Travel To Start Off Road Trip

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (heel) is not traveling with the team to San Francisco to take on the Golden State Warriors on Saturday. This is the first of a five-game road trip and the team has yet to rule him out for the whole trip. As of right now, it's too soon to know […]

Christian Wood Targeting Next Week For Return

Dallas Mavericks forward Christian Wood (thumb) participated in his first full practice since fracturing his thumb on Friday, and he said he's ready to go. He likely won't play in Saturday's contest against the Golden State Warriors, so that means either Monday or Wednesday will be his better chances to return to the court. Wood […]

We have our busiest Thursday of the season so far with seven games going on. Memphis and Golden State are on the tail end of back-to-back sets.
