Luka Doncic Could Miss A Few Weeks
Dallas Mavericks forward Luka Doncic (ankle) is expected to be sidelined at least until after Christmas. Doncic suffered a right ankle sprain during Saturday's game against the Miami Heat.

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (12/14/19): NBA DFS Lineups
Seven game slates lead to some of the best nights because they offer enough variance to keep it interesting, but you won't run into all the same dopes running the same lineup. As much as everyone wants to win, playing the same lineup hurt your chances and it's always better to have a little bit […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (12/13/19): NBA DFS Lineups
James Harden versus the Magic. James Harden versus the Magic? James Harden. Versus. The Magic. I would have continued this train of thought type of thing, but I felt it was cringeworthy enough. Even at his price, you have to go Harden tonight. He's breaking records and aside from Luka Doncic, no other player has […]
Delon Wright Ruled Out for Thursday
Dallas Mavericks guard Delon Wright (groin) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Detroit Pistons. It sounds like Wright has been improving, but the Mavs want to play it safe here. Seth Curry and J.J. Barea will see extended minutes without Wright on the court. Neither player is worth looking at besides in […]

NBA Weekly Streamers for Week 8 (Dec 9 - Dec 15)
Recently I had a short conversation on Reddit (fantasybball subreddit of course) about the benefits and importance of streaming. The fantasy owner who started the conversation analyzed the stats his streamers have brought him over a three-week period and calculated that it was equal to a top-25 to top-40 production. Mind you, this was a […]
Deep Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Adds (Week 8)
Immediately upon Kyle Lowry's return to the starting lineup, Fred Vanvleet went down with an injury that looks like it will keep him out for at least two weeks. Since most people were concerned about how Lowry will impact VanVleet production, it's pretty clear now. Outside of the Raptors, there is one player that has […]
Tim Hardaway Jr. Goes Off For 29 Points Sunday Night
Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Tim Hardaway Jr. was feeling it against Sacramento on Sunday, finishing a 110-106 loss with 29 points on 10-for-13 shooting.

Luka Doncic Struggles From The Field Against Kings
Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Luka Doncic had a tough night against the Kings on Sunday, shooting only 10-for-24 from the field and 3-for-12 from three-point range. However, despite the shooting issues, he still managed to provide a good-looking 27-8-7 line in 35 minutes. He also had six turnovers, which ended up hurting the team a lot […]
Delon Wright is Ruled Out for Sunday
Dallas Mavericks guard Delon Wright (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He hurt his groin during Saturday's win over the Pelicans.

Kristaps Porzingis Should Be Fine for Sunday
Dallas Mavericks center Kristaps Porzingis is not listed on the injury report for Sunday's game against the Sacramento Kings. He's expected to be available for the second game of the back-to-back set. Porzingis played 20 minutes on Saturday, so the Mavericks feel that he'll be able to play 30 minutes on Sunday. However, the Mavs […]

Kristaps Porzingis Needed For Just 20 Minutes During Win
Dallas Mavericks power forward/center Kristaps Porzingis collected 13 points and five rebounds during Saturday’s victory over the New Orleans Pelicans, having been on the floor for just 20 minutes due in part to the convincing nature of the team’s victory.

Luka Doncic Pours In 26 Points In Just 26 Minutes
Dallas Mavericks guard/forward Luka Doncic continued his dominant run by nearly notching a double-double during Saturday’s win over the New Orleans Pelicans despite playing only 26 minutes.

Delon Wright Likely To Miss First Game Of Year Sunday
Dallas Mavericks point guard Delon Wright is doubtful to take the floor Sunday versus the Sacramento Kings due to a right groin strain. Wright’s first season in Dallas has seen him become a vital bench cog who is averaging 7.9 points, 3.6 rebounds and 3.5 assists per contest, giving him limited season-long fantasy value. In […]
Dwight Powell is Fine for Sunday
Dallas Mavericks center Dwight Powell (arm) was wearing a sleeve on his left arm during practice on Friday. Powell bruised his left arm during Wednesday's game, but the X-rays came back negative. He was playing fantastic during that game, so fantasy owners should take notice. It sounds like Powell will be fine for Sunday's game […]
