Steph Curry broke the three-point record last night against the Knicks, but not even his greatness can ignore that there's a looming cloud over the entirety of the NBA.

D'Angelo Russell Questionable Against Nuggets
Minnesota Timberwolves guard D'Angelo Russell (ankle) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He made his return to the court on Sunday and played 35 minutes.

DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (12/14/21): NBA DFS Lineups
Are you ready for some Tuesday night hoops?

The answer to that question though is a resounding "YES!" There's a veritable gold mine out there in fantasyland […]
Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers for Week 9: Garrison Mathews, JaVale McGee, Kevin Huerter, Cedi Osman
More bummer injury news and health and safety protocols issues have made this fantasy season an absolutely dreadful landscape to navigate. Good health is going to do your fantasy team wonders, but if you have some guys out for a while, it's wise to drop them and start streaming! You can still win your league […]
D'Angelo Russell Returns With An 18-5-5 Line
Minnesota Timberwolves point guard D'Angelo Russell ended a three-game absence with 18 points, five rebounds and five assists in Sunday's win over the Blazers. He bagged a pair of steals as well with two turnovers and 5-for-12 shooting. He was on a roll from downtown with a 4-for-8 effort. There were talks of Russell returning […]
Karl-Anthony Towns Grabs His 13th Double-Double
Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns reached 13 double-doubles for the campaign on Sunday, finishing a 116-111 win over Portland with 23 points and 10 rebounds.

D'Angelo Russell Will Likely Play With A Minutes Restriction
Minnesota Timberwolves point guard D'Angelo Russell (ankle) is considered questionable for Sunday's contest against Portland, but it looks like he will return to action with a minutes restriction. Russell has missed three games for the slumping T-Wolves. Patrick Beverley and Leandro Bolmaro have earned starts during Russell's absence. Beverley's fantasy value takes a bit of […]
DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (12/12/21): NBA DFS Lineups
DraftKings and FanDuel are giving us two short slates on the weekend as there are just five games on Sunday's main slate after a six-gamer on Saturday. I guess they like to save the 13-game slates for random Tuesdays for some reason. I shouldn't be complaining because sorting through those mega-slates is a gigantic headache, […]

D'Angelo Russell Expected To Sit Out On Friday
Minnesota Timberwolves guard D'Angelo Russell (ankle) is expected to miss Friday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Russell has already missed multiple games due to this issue, so it wouldn't be shocking to see him sit out at least one more game. Fantasy managers should continue to hold Russell through the injury.

Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (12/10/21)
Wednesday night's results were mixed but with more good than bad. Charlotte did their part by covering and the total just barely hit the over in that game, too. The Raptors totally disappeared in the second half and lost by one, failing to cover and I'm not likely to trust them again after that mess. […]
D'Angelo Russell Tagged As Questionable For Friday
Minnesota Timberwolves guard D'Angelo Russell (ankle) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. He has missed each of the last two games, which has freed up more minutes for Malik Beasley. That should remain the case if Russell is unable to play again. Beasley has been a strong fantasy option while […]
Karl-Anthony Towns Shoots Very Well Against Jazz
Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns had a very nice shooting night against Utah on Wednesday, hitting 7-for-11 from the field and 2-for-4 from downtown to finish with 22 points. He went 6-for-8 at the line and recorded seven rebounds and five assists with one block and four turnovers. Towns enjoyed an efficient performance here, but […]
Patrick Beverley To Return On Wednesday
Minnesota Timberwolves guard Patrick Beverley (groin) will make his return to the court against the Utah Jazz on Wednesday. He has missed each of the last six games due to a groin issue. Beverley should move right into the starting five with D'Angelo Russell (ankle) already ruled out for this contest. It's uncertain if Beverley […]

A massive 13-game slate on Wednesday is the perfect chaser for last night's trio of competitive games.
