Luka Doncic Out On Saturday Against Sacramento
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (toe) won't play on Saturday against Sacramento. The 30-year-old is currently dealing with a left toe sprain, although he managed to log 40 minutes on Thursday night against Golden State, so it doesn't appear that the injury is too severe, at least at the moment. Nonetheless, Doncic's next chance to […]
Marquese Chriss Not Available Against Sacramento
Dallas Mavericks forward Marquese Chriss (knee) won't suit up against the Kings on Saturday. This is hardly a surprise, primarily since the 24-year-old has been out since mid-February because of right knee soreness. However, the Mavs will also be without Maxi Kleber (foot), who will miss his second consecutive game, so the team will unquestionably […]
Maxi Kleber Won't Play Versus Sacramento
Dallas Mavericks forward/center Maxi Kleber (ankle) isn't available for Saturday's meeting with Sacramento. The 30-year-old will now miss his second consecutive outing while he continues to be plagued by right ankle soreness. Marquese Chriss (knee) is also ruled out for this one, so the door is open for Dwight Powell, who had 13 points, eight […]
Luka Doncic Questionable On Saturday
Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (toe) is questionable for Saturday's bout against the visiting Kings. Doncic is currently dealing with a left toe sprain, which isn't ideal considering Maxi Kleber (foot) and Marquese Chriss (knee) have already been ruled out. Trey Burke (shoulder) and Sterling Brown (illness) are also questionable, so Jalen Brunson, Spencer Dinwiddie, […]
Luka Doncic Dominates En Route To 41-Point Outing
Dallas Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic delivered his sixth game of the season hitting the 40-point plateau during Thursday's win over the Warriors. The 23-year-old went 15-for-26 from the floor, including 4-for-10 from long range, holding off Golden State for the second time in five days. In addition to his whopping scoring totals, Doncic came […]
Mid-Week Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers for Week 20: Lonnie Walker IV, Jaxson Hayes, Gabe Vincent, Jae Crowder
If you're one of those fantasy basketball players that sets a lineup at the beginning of the week, checks out, and then comes back seven days later to see how things shook out, this post is not for you. This is for those who are grinding through each day and keeping track of categories as […]
NBA DFS Prop Picks for 3/2/22 - Monkey Knife Fight
Competition increases every night and every one of last night’s games came down to the waning minutes of the fourth quarter. The NBA is in a great spot right now, all thanks to the players. Entertainment has been peaking on a nightly basis and younger players are proving not only why they belong in this […]
Fantasy Basketball Injury Updates for Week 19 - Ben Simmons, Darius Garland, Josh Giddey, OG Anunoby, Michael Porter Jr., Chris Paul
We're now entering fantasy playoffs time for NBA basketball, so you should be double-checking things regardless. There's no room for mistakes when you're up for a 'ship. I've lost matchups by a few steals or a few rebounds in the last few seasons, for example. That's the margin. No errors! Since the stakes are high, […]
Fantasy Basketball Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 19: Bruce Brown, Onyeka Okongwu, Raul Neto, Corey Kispert, Grant Williams
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 […]
Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers for Week 19: Isaiah Jackson, Oshae Brissett, Chuma Okeke, Brandon Goodwin
Did you all miss me for a week? I bet you did. Even though you can't tell me through this computer screen, I'm sure you did. We're back though, and some leagues will be starting their FANTASY BASKETBALL PLAYOFFS this week while others will be jockeying for playoff positioning. I have two leagues entering playoffs […]
DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/1/22): NBA DFS Lineups
Happy Tuesday and happy March, Rotoballers! The Association gives us a medium-sized six-game slate tonight, and it's looking like a split schedule with three enticing matchups for DFS and three... not-so-enticing games. Regardless, I will sift through the player pool, find the players I want to have in my NBA lineups, and then recommend them […]

Trey Burke, Frank Ntilikina Out On Sunday
Dallas Mavericks guards Trey Burke (shoulder) and Frank Ntilikina (ankle) have been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Golden State Warriors. Burke is dealing with a left shoulder sprain while Ntilikina has a right ankle sprain. Both players have been phased out of the rotation lately as Spencer Dinwiddie has been the team's primary […]
DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/27/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups
We have a small five-game slate to work with tonight as the NBA decided to go with a trio of afternoon matchups that fall outside of the main slate. It's not going to be an easy slate to dissect as three of the games (Nuggets-Blazers, Pistons-Hornets, Clippers-Rockets) hold solid, if unspectacular, implied totals while the […]
Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (2/26/22)
It was a rough night for player props (0-3), but I went 3-1 on totals and spreads with the only miss there being a big whiff on the Raptors who got blown out by the Hornets. There were some sweaty moments in there as the Spurs needed three overtimes to finally put Washington away and […]
Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (2/25/22)
Last night the NBA returned from a week-long break and whet our appetites for basketball action. Tonight, we get nine more games and our first glimpse at the James Harden era in Philly and the Malcolm Brogdon-Tyrese Haliburton experiment in Indiana. The only really big surprise last night was my beloved Cavaliers faltering against Detroit […]
DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/25/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups
Happy Friday RotoBallers! As usual, we have a jam-packed Friday night slate, filled with some juicy matchups. However, this is going to be quite the weird slate with multiple incomplete active rosters after yesterday's trade deadline. These articles focus on the overall best plays, which are typically more suited for cash games. However, with larger […]
NBA DFS Prop Picks for 2/25/22 - Monkey Knife Fight
Basketball was gone for too long and yesterday’s games featured all inter-conference matchups in some quality, semi-competitive basketball. Nearly every game was close for the first half, but the healthier, better equipped team won in nearly every case and three conference powerhouses, the Warriors, Suns, and Celtics, all dominated when it mattered, late in their […]
DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/24/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups
The NBA returns from the All-Star break with a solid seven-game slate Thursday night. What always makes the first night of post-All-Star-break play intriguing is that teams come in with a degree of rest that isn't possible at any other point in time past Opening Night. The injury report is unsurprisingly light overall on short-term […]
Buy-Low, Sell-High, NBA Fantasy Basketball Playoffs
All-Star weekend has come to a close, which means two things. One, and maybe most obvious, we're in the second half of the 2021-22 NBA season. Two, we're nearing the fantasy basketball playoffs, which is maybe not as obvious if you don't play the game, but that's likely why you're reading this article in the […]
DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/20): All-Star Game NBA DFS Lineups
We have a treat in store tonight as the 71st edition of the NBA All-Star Game will take place at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse in Cleveland, Ohio. Karl-Anthony Towns won the Three-Point Contest and Obi Toppin took home the title in a wholly uninspiring Slam Dunk Contest on Saturday, but tonight features the real show as […]
Reggie Bullock, Frank Ntilikina Will Miss Thursday’s Contest
Dallas Mavericks shooting guard/small forward Reggie Bullock (hip) and point/shooting guard Frank Ntilikina (ankle) have been ruled out for Thursday's game against New Orleans. Bullock has been sensationally hot from long range over his last nine outings, knocking down an average of 4.3 made triples at a 48.1% clip in that span. With Kristaps Porzingis […]
DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/17/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups
After a particularly extended pre-All-Star-break portion of the season, the NBA is finally ready for its week-long pause to its 2021-22 campaign. Most teams have already begun their sabbatical, but there are still five games to play Thursday night. Despite the modest number of games, there are still plenty of big names in action and […]
Mid-Week Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers for Week 18: Justise Winslow, Matisse Thybulle, Dorian Finney-Smith, Thomas Bryant
If you're one of those fantasy basketball players that sets a lineup at the beginning of the week, checks out, and then comes back seven days later to see how things shook out, this post is not for you. This is for those who are grinding through each day and keeping track of categories as […]
Reggie Bullock Ruled Out On Tuesday
Dallas Mavericks small forward Reggie Bullock (hip) will be sidelined for Tuesday's game against the Miami Heat. Bullock is dealing with a left hip contusion. He will likely be replaced in the starting lineup by Maxi Kleber, who could make for an interesting DFS play on Tuesday. Bullock's minutes could also be filled by the […]
Spencer Dinwiddie, Davis Bertans To Debut With Mavs Tuesday
Newly-acquired Dallas Mavericks guard Spencer Dinwiddie and forward Davis Bertans will make their debuts with the team on Tuesday as the Mavericks face the Miami Heat. Both players will come off the bench in the game, according to Mavericks head coach Jason Kidd. The Mavericks will be without Reggie Bullock (hip) and Trey Burke (shoulder) […]
Reggie Bullock Doubtful For Tuesday
Dallas Mavericks guard Reggie Bullock (hip) is listed as doubtful for Tuesday's game against the Miami Heat. He has been averaging 17 points, 4.9 rebounds, 4.3 triples over his last nine games. Bullock is certainly worth rostering right now while he's in a hot stretch. Maxi Kleber and Josh Green are the likely candidates to […]
Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (2/15/22)
Well, they say that all good things have to come to an end, right? The cruel reality that you can't win every night reared its ugly head last night as I went 0-4 with the first goose egg that I've taken in a few weeks. The Spurs hurt the most as they led or within […]
Fantasy Basketball Injury Updates for Week 18 - Pat Connaughton, Norman Powell, John Collins, Zach LaVine, Chris Duarte
Going to be knocking this out early on Monday yet again as there's another Bulls game tonight. Double-check the latest injury reports before you go full speed ahead on any adds. This should give you a quick, general idea though. The tradeline has come and gone, and there's been a ton of shifting in the […]

Happy Tuesday, RotoBallers! I hope last night's slate of NBA DFS treated you well. I'm continuing to work on my NBA model, trying to gather more information to make sure all of you are as armed as possible going into each slate. Even with the small adjustments I've made so far, it seems to be […]
