DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/8/23): NBA DFS Lineups

We have a six-game slate on tap in the NBA tonight, which is typically my favorite sweet spot of games on a slate. However, this is shaping up to be one of the trickier slates this season, as we have a handful of stars and a group of important rotational pieces with questionable injury designations. […]

Onyeka Okongwu (C, ATL) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 13

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 19% of leagues ANALYSIS: If only for next week, Onyeka Okongwu should be prioritized in nearly all leagues. I'm knocking him down to just 12-teamers for the simple fact that Atlanta's starting C Clint Capela is expected back midweek, cutting down OO's upside a bit. Okongwu […]

Anthony Edwards Questionable For Meeting With Houston

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards (hip) is questionable for Sunday's game in Houston. He exited Friday's win over the Los Angeles Clippers because of a sore left hip, allowing Jaylen Nowell to finish with 14 points and six assists. If Edwards can't suit up, Nowell would be a favorite to enter starting lineup, ultimately giving […]

Rudy Gobert Dominates Against The Clippers

Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert feasted against the Clippers on Friday, recording 25 points and 21 rebounds in a 128-115 win. The Clippers have been a great matchup for centers all year and Gobert took full advantage of it to log his second 20-20 game of the season. He missed only four of 15 shots […]

Anthony Edwards Suffers A Hip Injury, Expects To Miss Sunday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Anthony Edwards left Friday's contest against the Clippers with hip soreness and doesn't expect to play Sunday versus Houston. The injury limited him to only 23 minutes of action and a season-low five points. It also comes at a really bad time, as Edwards was enjoying a nice scoring spurt, averaging 30.3 […]

Naz Reid Available Again Friday

Minnesota Timberwolves center Naz Reid (back) will be back from a two-game absence on Friday against the Clippers. He's had trouble with back spasms but is good to go again. Reid recently had a very productive stretch with Rudy Gobert out of the lineup and he has a tough time pleasing fantasy managers with the […]

D'Angelo Russell To Return On Wednesday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard D'Angelo Russell (illness) is back in the starting five for Wednesday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. The young guard sat out of their last game due to a non-COVID related illness. It appears Russell is feeling good enough to suit up for Wednesday's contest. He should resume his normal role, which […]

Taurean Prince Set To Return For Wednesday’s Game

Minnesota Timberwolves small forward Taurean Prince (shoulder) is on track to take the floor for Wednesday's contest against Portland, marking his first in-game action since Nov. 23. Right shoulder irritation has sidetracked Prince's season, which began with him averaging 7.9 points and 2.5 rebounds across 18 contests off the bench. As Minnesota remains without Karl-Anthony […]

Naz Reid Listed As Questionable Wednesday

Minnesota Timberwolves center Naz Reid (back) is questionable to play Wednesday against the Portland Trail Blazers. Reid missed Monday's game with back spasms and may sit another if he does not recover in time. Nathan Knight and Luka Garza saw an uptick in minutes off the bench without Reid, but neither are recommended fantasy options. […]

D'Angelo Russell Questionable For Monday's Game

Minnesota Timberwolves guard D'Angelo Russell (illness) is considered questionable for Monday's game against the Denver Nuggets. The star guard is dealing with a non-COVID related illness.

Anthony Edwards Will Play Saturday

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Anthony Edwards (hip) is available for Saturday's game against the Detroit Pistons. This is great news after Edwards was considered questionable earlier in the day due to a left hip contusion. He fell hard during Friday's game, but appears to be good enough to suit up on Saturday. The 21-year-old has been […]

DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (12/31/22): NBA DFS Lineups

It's New Year's Eve, and I can't think of a better day to make some money with daily fantasy basketball contests. The matchups are reasonably evenly spread in terms of their fantasy appeal tonight. Still, there is a clear tier break in the implied totals after the Nets-Hornets, Pelicans-Grizzlies, Mavericks-Spurs, and Pistons-Timberwolves matchups. The Nets, […]

Kyle Anderson Returns To Starting Five Friday

Minnesota Timberwolves small/power forward Kyle Anderson (back) has been given the green light to play in Friday's game vs. Milwaukee, returning from a five-game absence due to back spasms. Anderson will reprise his starting role and should see some DFS intrigue with Rudy Gobert (illness) ruled out in the frontcourt. Anderson came off the bench […]

Rudy Gobert Will Miss Friday’s Contest

Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (illness) has been ruled out for Friday's game against Milwaukee due to an illness. Naz Reid stands to draw significant DFS appeal without Gobert in the mix, as the fourth-year big man has averaged 21.7 points and 8.3 rebounds across three starts this season. The absence of Gobert on the […]

Rudy Gobert Tagged As Questionable For Friday

Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert (illness) is suffering from a non-COVID illness and the team has listed him as questionable for their contest against the Milwaukee Bucks on Friday. The French big man was a late addition to the injury report which doesn't bode well for his chances to play. If he is sidelined, Naz […]

Just as I had battled my way back to .500 on the season I promptly went 0-4 on picks I made in Wednesday's article. Those types of nights happen, unfortunately, and it comes with the territory. But I could just as easily go 4-0 tonight and reverse the trend, which is what I intend to […]

Jordan McLaughlin To Be Re-Evaluated In One Week

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Jordan McLaughlin (calf) will be sidelined for at least the next week. The 26-year-old is dealing with a left calf strain, so he'll be shut down and re-evaluated in one week. This means that McLaughlin will miss the next five games. His absence should open up playing time for Austin Rivers and […]

Kyle Anderson Out Wednesday; Optimism For Friday Return

Minnesota Timberwolves forward Kyle Anderson (back) will sit out again on Wednesday against the New Orleans Pelicans. Anderson will miss his fifth straight game due to back spasms, but there is optimism he will be able to play on Friday. Austin Rivers should continue to start without Anderson, but his starting role may be short […]
