Fantasy Basketball Deep League Adds: Week 11
The deeper a fantasy 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 help […]
Al Horford To Rest Against San Antonio
Oklahoma City Thunder forward Al Horford (rest) won't suit up Thursday against the Spurs. Horford will get his usual rest on the second night of a back-to-back. Isaiah Roby will likely get the start at the four in a pretty tricky matchup with San Antonio- though he had a nice 15-9-7 line two games ago […]

When the Houston Rockets dealt James Harden to Brooklyn earlier this season, they knew that today, March 3, 2021, would come.

Hamidou Diallo Out Friday Against Hawks
Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Hamidou Diallo (groin) will miss Friday's contest against the Atlanta Hawks. Diallo suffered a groin injury on Wednesday and did not return so he may be in for a multi-game absence. This is unfortunate given how well Diallo was playing, but with his injury the Thunder have called up Ty Jerome […]
Al Horford To Rest On Friday Evening
Oklahoma City Thunder center Al Horford will not play on Friday night against the Atlanta Hawks. With OKC playing its first of back-to-back outings, the veteran will get the night off to rest, a trend that has occurred throughout the year. In his place, Isaiah Roby should get the start once again, with the 23-year-old averaging […]

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. […]

Diallo finished with five points and two rebounds across his 11 minutes before departing, with Justin Jackson and Kenrich Williams likely to take on larger roles with […]
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. San Antonio’s depth chart has been flipped upside down by the league’s health and safety protocols. With at least five key […]

With a nine-game slate Wednesday, the action picks up right where it left off.

Al Horford Resting Against Heat
Oklahoma City Thunder forward Al Horford (rest) will not suit up for Monday's game against the Miami Heat. It's the second game of a back-to-back set, so it's not shocking to see Horford sitting out. He should have plenty of suitors at the trade deadline, so the Thunder are likely going to be careful with […]

NBA DFS Prop Picks for Monday (2/22/21) - Monkey Knife Fight
