DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball (2/27/21) Picks: NBA DFS Lineups
Saturday presents a strong seven-game slate for the NBA on DraftKings, and we have more than enough positive game environments and defenseless teams to take advantage of tonight.

[…]

Schroder had a great game before missing four […]
LeBron James Once Again Probable
Los Angeles Lakers guard/forward LeBron James (ankle) is probable on Friday night against Portland. This isn't a surprise, as the veteran has been listed on the injury report for several weeks with a left ankle sprain. With Anthony Davis (Achilles) out of the equation, the former MVP should be on the radar more than ever […]
DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/26/21): NBA DFS Lineups
Take a gander at Friday’s slate. There’s nine contests in total, yet only one that features both teams having an above .500 record. Now, that’s much to do with the parody of the Eastern Conference through the first half of the year, but there’s also six East vs. West showdowns that make for unique matchups. […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/24/21): NBA DFS Lineups
In one fell swoop, the NBA gets both the Spurs and Pacers back Wednesday night. Even on a crowded nine-game slate, those two teams standout as being the most important, albeit for different reasons.

Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers - Week 10
Week 10 will likely be known as the week of back-to-backs as a total of 21 teams are playing in a back-to-back set this week. Beware of older and/or banged up players who may sit at any point this week. The Memphis Grizzlies surprisingly sat players on Saturday to rest so no team is safe. […]

Los Angeles Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma scored a team-high 23 points in Saturday's 96-94 loss to Miami, shooting 8-for-21 from the field and 4-for-11 from downtown.

Los Angeles Lakers guard Dennis Schroder could potentially return next Friday against the Portland Trail Blazers.

WAS/POR sets up as the clear spotlight […]

LeBron James, Kyle Kuzma Listed As Probable Against Heat
Los Angeles Lakers forward LeBron James (ankle) and forward Kyle Kuzma (back) are probable for Saturday's game against the Heat. Forward Markieff Morris (ankle) is also probable. James has appeared on nearly every injury report since the season started, so there's no reason to suspect that he'll be inactive, especially with Anthony Davis sidelined (Achilles). […]
Dennis Schroder To Miss Second Straight Game On Saturday
Los Angeles Lakers guard Dennis Schroder will be out on Saturday against the Heat. This will be his second straight absence, as his status and possible return remain cloudy while he remains in the league's COVID-19 health and safety protocol. Alex Caruso and Talen Horton-Tucker should see added minutes against the Heat, as both played 25-plus […]
Anthony Davis Out At Least One Month
Los Angeles Lakers center Anthony Davis (calf) is going to be sidelined for the foreseeable future. It appears Davis is going to be out for at least the next four weeks, according to head coach Frank Vogel. The organization wants Davis to fully recover before the playoffs. This is obviously a big blow to fantasy […]
