Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers for Week 18: Oshae Brissett, Brandon Clarke, Cameron Thomas, Ayo Dosunmu, Reggie Bullock

Quick and important note: Week 18 goes from February 14th through February 27th for most people, so that's what we'll be using. The all-star break means that we'll be without games for several days. Boo, but also we can all use a little break. All leagues should be gearing up for the playoffs in a […]

Fantasy Basketball Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 18: Danilo Gallinari, Dwight Powell, Kenrich Williams, Rajon Rondo, Deni Avdija

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 […]

Dorian Finney-Smith (SF/PF, DAL): Week 18 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 38% of leagues ANALYSIS: All eyes will focus on the additions of Spencer Dinwiddie and Davis Bertans in exchange for Kristaps Porzingis. That's reasonable, but only because of the New Toy Bias. As real as it gets, brothers. Dorian Finney-Smith, on the other hand, has kept […]

Reggie Bullock (SG/SF, DAL): Week 18 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 48% of leagues ANALYSIS: My man Reggie has done it all for the Mavs. Point, two-guard, wing, you name it.

Marquese Chriss Won't Play Versus The Clippers

Dallas Mavericks forward Marquese Chriss (knee) won't be in the lineup on Saturday for the rematch with the Clippers.

Davis Bertans Won’t Make Mavericks Debut Saturday

Dallas Mavericks small forward Davis Bertans has not been cleared to take the floor for Saturday's game against the Clippers. Bertans' playing time was wildly sporadic this season for Washington prior to the trade, as he received just 14.7 minutes on a nightly basis, a year removed from averaging three made triples per game. Dallas […]

Spencer Dinwiddie Won’t Make Mavericks Debut Saturday

Dallas Mavericks point/shooting guard Spencer Dinwiddie has been ruled out for Saturday's contest against the Clippers, not yet having received the green light to suit up for his new team.

It was another 3-1 night as both props hit and our Mavericks managed to just barely get over their total behind a huge outing from Luka Doncic. The Milwaukee-Phoenix game went over as the Suns just couldn't be stopped and I hope a few people took the Suns -3 at home as the model liked […]

Dallas Mavericks forward Marquese Chriss (knee) was forced to exit early during Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. He finished with two rebounds and only lasted five minutes before exiting due to right knee soreness. The Mavericks have a rematch against the Clippers on Saturday. Fantasy managers should consider Chriss questionable for that game. […]

Dorian Finney-Smith Inks Four-Year Contract Extension

Instead, Finney-Smith signed a four-year contract extension with the Mavericks, which is slated to be worth $52 million.

Another really solid night last night as the Suns and Kings took care of business as our main bets. Brandon Ingram came up short of his prop despite a good matchup, but the fourth bet that I added mid-day hit as Reggie Bullock hit four threes to go over his 2.5 prop. I'll take 3-1 […]

Dallas Mavericks forward Maxi Kleber (knee) will be available for Tuesday's game against the Detroit Pistons, according to Mavericks head coach Jason Kidd.

Fantasy Basketball Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 17: Isaac Okoro, Jaxson Hayes, Doug McDermott, Josh Richardson, Austin Rivers

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 […]

Maxi Kleber Downgraded To Out

Dallas Mavericks forward/center Maxi Kleber (knee) won't play on Sunday against the Hawks. The 30-year-old is currently plagued by fluid in his left knee, and with Kristaps Porzingis (knee) not playing as well. Dwight Powell should get some additional run.
