There's nothing like […]

Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (3/28/23)

It’s been a little while since I’ve taken a stab at NBA picks, but I’m back and ready to go. I had a decent night almost two weeks ago. The Miami Heat took care of business at home and covered the four-point spread against the Memphis Grizzlies. A “meaningless” (meaningful to some of us) Mike […]

Ja Morant Doubtful Versus Orlando

Memphis Grizzlies guard Ja Morant (thigh) is doubtful for Tuesday's game against the Orlando Magic. The Grizzlies are regrouping for a deep postseason run, so getting Morant to 100% is the top priority. As usual, Tyus Jones will roll with the first five. The 26-year-old has averaged 17.1 points, 8.0 assists, and 1.7 steals in […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 7% of leagues ANALYSIS: With just a week and a half remaining in the regular season and Memphis sitting pretty in the no. 2 seed in the Western Conference, it's hard to envision Steven Adams returning before the playoffs and risking any sort of setback in […]

Fantasy Basketball Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds For Week 23: Trendon Watford, Xavier Tillman Sr., Nick Richards

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 […]

DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/26/23): NBA DFS Lineups

This should be an exciting slate, to say the very least. We have two matchups (Spurs-Celtics, Rockets-Cavaliers) with spreads of at least 14.5 points. At the same time, a group of the 14 teams in action tonight are either blatantly tanking or blatantly resting players in preparation for the playoffs. This is the time of […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 28% of leagues ANALYSIS: Ja Morant finally returned to the Grizzlies rotation earlier this week, but he did so playing off the pine and the most probable outcome from this point through the end of the regular season is that, even if he retakes the starting […]

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 […]

DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/20/23): NBA DFS Lineups

We're set for a six-game slate Monday night that features some heavier favorites than usual, but a pair of very narrow spreads as well.
