Marc Gasol is Expected to Play Friday

Memphis Grizzlies center Marc Gasol (illness) is expected to play against the Sacramento Kings on Friday. He participated in shootaround and is on track to rejoin the starting five. Gasol was a late scratch on Wednesday, but it would be surprising to see him on the sidelines Friday. Deyonta Davis and Jarell Martin will lose […]

Jarell Martin Has Strong Showing Off The Bench

Memphis Grizzlies power forward Jarell Martin posted 17 points on 8-for-15 shooting off the bench as the Grizzlies took down the New York Knicks on Wednesday. Martin also added six rebounds, an assist, a steal, and a block. This was Martin's second consecutive game scoring in double figures, but it also marked just his second […]

Dillon Brooks Continues To Improve Offensively

Memphis Grizzlies rookie small forward Dillon Brooks has gone through some rough patches from the field at times over the course of his first NBA season, but a second consecutive game in which Brooks efficiently scored in the high-teens suggests he might be coming into his own as a shooter. Brooks scored 17 points in […]

JaMychal Green Leads Memphis In Rebounding On Wednesday

Memphis Grizzlies power forward JaMychal Green pulled down 13 rebounds on Wednesday against the Knicks. It was the second time in four games that the forward recorded double-digit rebounds as he continues to trend upwards in that category. He also added 18 points on 6-for-15 shooting and drained three shots from deep. Green's scoring numbers […]

Tyreke Evans Records Double-Double Against Knicks

Memphis Grizzlies shooting guard Tyreke Evans posted 23 points in Wednesday night's win over the New York Knicks, though he shot just 9-for-21 from the field and 2-for-7 from three. Evans dished 10 assists and pulled down six rebounds in the victory. The veteran guard has been scoring at an impressive rate over the last […]

Marc Gasol And Brendan Wright Out Wednesday

Memphis Grizzlies centers Marc Gasol (illness) and Brendan Wright (illness) are out for Wednesday night's contest against the New York Knicks, leaving Memphis very thin in the front court.

Marc Gasol Struggles on Monday

Memphis Grizzlies center Marc Gasol had a rough night shooting on Monday against the Lakers. Gasol scored 17 points in the 123-114 win over Los Angeles, but struggled shooting the ball, going 6-for-14 from the field in addition to only nabbing seven boards. Nonetheless, outside of guard/forward Tyreke Evans, Gasol remains the offensive force for […]

Dillon Brooks Leads Memphis with 19 Points

Memphis Grizzlies small forward Dillon Brooks led his team in scoring with 19 points on an efficient 6-for-8 shooting night in Monday's win over the Lakers. Brooks also went 3-for-4 from the free throw line. The rookie added four rebounds and two assists as well. Brooks' 19 points tied a career high, and this was […]

Memphis Grizzlies shooting guard Tyreke Evans scored 15 points and dished 12 assists in the Grizzlies 123-114 win over the Los Angeles Lakers on Monday.

FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (1/5/18): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

You know what we deserve after a two game slate? Double digit games and good matchups. Tonight, we're getting both as there are 10 games across the Association.

FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (1/2/18): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

Christmas changed the usual pattern of the NBA schedule and as a result there was a relatively large Tuesday slate last week. However, things return to normal this week with a very small five game slate. To make things worse, rotation questions also litter the small slate. Normal headaches such as the Kings, Spurs, and […]

DraftKings NBA DFS (1/2/18): Lineup Picks, Sleepers and Advice

It's officially 2018, and I wish I could say that Tuesday's NBA DFS slate will be a little more full than Monday's, but we only have five games. Even still, five is better than three or two (which we have coming up on Thursday... ugh), so we can't complain. Let's help you build that bankroll up […]

FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (12/26/17): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

This Tuesday slate isn't on the level of the Christmas slate, but there is still a heavier slate than usual with eight games. There aren't many elite level players on the slate, especially if Giannis is held out of action. That makes it a pretty easy night to build around one or two favorite studs. […]

FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (12/23/17): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

Would you just look at this slate? Just look at it. Thirteen games that have the potential to produce an endless amount of results. The highest priced option for each position has a decent matchup so trust your gut and pick away. If you would rather trust my gut, look for Russell Westbrook to build […]

Roster Doctor: Grand Theft Otto Looks To Steal Some Wins

Fantasy basketball strategy doesn’t exist in a vacuum. Some decisions are easy – if they offer you Nikola Jokic for your Nikola Mirotic, you take it and run, you don’t need anyone to tell you that. Most trade offers and waiver decisions are not that black and white however, and the answer is very context […]

NBA Injuries and Who Can Benefit Instead (Week 10)

Just how frustrated are we with injuries in the NBA this season? It seems as if Player X returns, Player B gets injured. The injury bug has been real this season, and it's like a plague that continues to spread across the league. Understanding the injury landscape is key in all forms of fantasy basketball. […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (12/21/17): NBA DFS Advice

In theory, a five-game Thursday slate should be reason for celebration! However, with tighter DraftKings pricing, a handful of injuries, and seven of the ten teams on a back-to-back, I feel oddly unsatified as I tool through the player pool. Not to mention all of the duds last night that leave us with an uneasy […]

Fresh off a fantastic triple overtime victory on Friday over the 76ers, the Oklahoma City Thunder look to ease off its fans’ worries. It’s been a rollercoaster in the past two years for die hard Thunder fans: a gut-wrenching 2016 loss of Kevin Durant to the League’s villains, the Golden State Warriors, followed by a […]

NBA Injuries and Who Can Benefit Instead (Week 9)

The injury bug has been real this season, and it's like a plague that continues to spread across the league. Understanding the injury landscape is key in all forms of fantasy basketball.

NBA Waiver Wire: Standard Leagues (Week 9)

It's Week 9 – to cut bait, or to hold on? Many have cut bait on their mid-round players, which makes one man's trash your treasure. With injuries tearing up many fantasy squads right now, you need these middle ground guys more than ever, so take advantage of what the wire has to offer before […]

Three-Man Weave: Fantasy Basketball Dumpster Divers

Unlike fantasy football, where there's more potential value found with high scoring teams, in fantasy basketball you can find value anywhere...even in the dump. When you started your fantasy football draft you were probably forced to make some decision on whether or not you wanted to draft a Cleveland Brown. It's probably an internal discussion […]
