Clint Capela Grabs a Casual Double-Double

Houston Rockets center Clint Capela didn't let Andre Drummond's presence bother him in Thursday's win over Detroit, as he picked up 14 rebounds and scored 10 points to register his 37th double-double of the season. The 14 boards are his highest since March 3, when he had a 17-rebound performance against Boston. His failure to […]

P.J. Tucker Just Misses a Double-Double

Houston Rockets small forward P.J. Tucker got very close to his third double-double of the season on Thursday, as he finished an overtime win against the Pistons with 10 points and eight rebounds.

He also had five assists and two steals in 42 minutes on the floor in the overtime […]

James Harden Lethargic In Rockets Win

Houston Rockets guard James Harden only went through the motions in Thursday's win over Detroit, as he shot just 4-for-20 from the field and missed all eight attempts from downtown. However, he still managed to get to 21 points thanks to being busy on the free throw line and getting some extra minutes to perform, […]

Chris Paul Likely Resting on Thursday

Houston Rockets point guard Chris Paul (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Detroit Pistons. The Rockets plan to rest Paul as a precaution, according to Tim MacMahon. It would not be surprising to see the Rockets play it safe and let Paul rest his hamstring. Eric Gordon and Gerald Green would […]

Clint Capela Struggles On Tuesday

Houston Rockets center Clint Capela had a rough night at the office on Tuesday against Portland.

All the late news, injuries, and tanking may have you ready for some DFS baseball action, but we've got to finish the NBA season strong. Thankfully, we're missing one of the biggest culprits of putting DFS players on tilt (looking at you Grizzlies), but there are still landmines to watch in the form of Phoenix […]

NBA Weekly Streamers for Week 23 (Mar 19 - Mar 25)

It's either the semi-finals or the finals in most fantasy hoops leagues. There's nothing left to hold back for now. If you've got a guy who's injured, no matter how good he is, it's time to cut bait and stream with that roster spot (assuming no available IR spot). So goodbye, Gary Harris. Adios, Kevin […]

Ryan Anderson Expected to Play Sunday

Houston Rockets forward/center Ryan Anderson (hip) is expected to play on Sunday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He returned from a three-week absence on Saturday and played 11 minutes off the bench. He went scoreless with three rebounds, one steal, and one block. Anderson seems to be injury-prone, so the Rockets will likely ease him back […]

FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (3/17/18): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

As the season dwindles down, the games are becoming more and more unpredictable. Injuries, resting players and playoff contention has thrown teams in a loop and while projecting winners has been a problem for bettors, score lines have been the go-to for me. While not entirely consistent, it does take into affect the pace and […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/17/18): NBA DFS Lineups

We have a 10 game slate and there are some interesting options across the board. Not a ton of injuries as of right now, so lineup construction should be pretty straight forward, which could make it difficult to get some of the bigger name players into the same lineup. In this article, I will be providing […]

Seeing The Future, Part 1: A Look At This Year's NBA Rookie Class

With most fantasy playoffs in full swing, and articles all over the place with regards to waiver pickups, stream targets and playoff match-up analysis, I figured it'd be a good time to instead take a look with an eye on the future. 2017-2018's rookie class was one of the most exciting in recent memory, and […]

Clint Capela Ruled Out Thursday

Houston Rockets center Clint Capela (thumb) will not play Thursday night against the Los Angeles Clippers. This comes as a surprise, as Capela was listed as probable leading up to Thursday. Although the injury is not considered serious, it will keep Capela out of the lineup against the Clippers. In his absence, Nene Hilario is […]

FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (3/15/18): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

If you feel like gambling tonight, I support the decision. Not only cause it gives me some extra traffic, but because every game has unreal upside. Some of the leagues slower teams are playing, but so are the teams most prolific and explosive offenses. With playoff implications still holding all the chips in regards to […]

Clint Capela is Probable on Thursday

Houston Rockets forward/center Clint Capela (thumb) is listed as probable for Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. This is the first time a thumb issue has come up on the injury report for Capela. However, Capela is listed as probable, so the injury is likely minor. Fantasy owners should not be too worried about […]

Ryan Anderson Ruled Out Monday

Houston Rockets forward/center Ryan Anderson (hip) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Anderson has missed seven straight games and has not played since late February. Anderson was averaging 9.6 points, 5.6 rebounds and 2.0 treys in 21.8 minutes his last five games before the injury. He's really only useful […]

James Harden Will Play on Monday

Houston Rockets guard James Harden (knee) will play against the San Antonio Spurs on Monday. He did not play in Sunday's contest against the Dallas Mavericks due to rest. It was a precautionary absence due to the back-to-back set, but Harden will be fine for Monday's contest. Eric Gordon stepped into the starting rotation for […]

NBA Weekly Streamers for Week 22 (March 12 - March 18)

It's playoffs time!!! Forget sentiment. Forget the love you've gotten from a player throughout the year. If his schedule does not fit with the rest of your team, and he is not indispensable, he's out! Waiver wire gold is awaiting and don't miss out just because Delon Wright used to bring you defensive stats that […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/12/18): NBA DFS Lineups

There are not many games tonight and there is less value. Your best chance of coming away with some cash is to take your chance on one sleeper pick, while taking safer mid-level priced options. It isn't the prettiest slate of games from a DFS standpoint, especially with most of the teams playing Monday night […]

Clint Capela Held In Check By Mavs

Houston Rockets center Clint Capela finished Sunday's blowout win over Dallas with only four points and eight rebounds. He was limited to 23 minutes, but that hasn't previously prevented him from flirting with a double-double. The Swiss big man ended up being far from one this time around, though he managed to cheer up some […]

Trevor Ariza Can't Find His Range On Sunday

Houston Rockets forward Trevor Ariza had one of his worst shooting nights of the season on Sunday, finishing with three points on 1-for-10 shooting against Dallas. He actually scored the Rockets first points in the 105-82 win with a triple, but went brick after brick following that, ending up 1-for-9 from behind the arc. Ariza […]

Chris Paul Leads The Charge Against Dallas

Houston Rockets point guard Chris Paul picked up his second double-double in three games on Sunday, leading the charge against Dallas with James Harden (knee) out. Paul had 24 points on 9-for-18 shooting, going 4-for-7 from deep, and came up just two short of matching his season high in assists, finishing with 12 dimes. He […]

Eric Gordon Shines In Start

Houston Rockets shooting guard Eric Gordon made his 25th start of the year on Sunday against Dallas with James Harden (knee) out, scoring 26 points with six triples in 31 minutes. Gordon went 6-for-11 from deep in what was his fifth straight game shooting over 40 percent from downtown. He has been shooting pretty poorly […]

James Harden Unlikely to Play Sunday

Houston Rockets guard James Harden (knee) is unlikely to suit up for Sunday's game against the Dallas Mavericks, according to Tim MacMahon. It's the front end of a back-to-back set, so the Rockets probably do not need Harden to beat a struggling Mavs team. This is not likely anything serious, but the Rockets want to […]

Fantasy Basketball Risers and Fallers: Week 22

Anthony Davis left two consecutive games for different injury reasons this week. It looks like the only real damage right now is a sprained ankle, so the Brow won't miss much time. That's good, because the NBA world needs and deserves a healthy Davis, who has stormed his way to second place in the MVP […]
