DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/8/18): NBA DFS Lineups

Happy Thursday, everyone. The association features a five-game slate with some pretty questionable matchups.

Three-Man Weave: Fantasy Basketball's Gunners

There's an old cliche, "Offense wins games, defense wins championships."

Carmelo Anthony Scores Just Nine Points

Oklahoma City Thunder power forward Carmelo Anthony struggled from the field against the Orlando Magic Monday night despite the win. He mustered up just nine points on a horrid 4-for-15 shooting and as is usually the case with Anthony this year, if he's not shooting well, he doesn't contribute much, as he added just nine […]

NBA Injuries and Who Can Benefit Instead (Week 20)

This season long pile-up of injuries has had me thinking, “Are we about to enter a Walking Dead-style apocalypse where this injury bug inevitably spreads and turns us all into walkers looking for flesh?!” This late in the year, even after the All-Star Break, injuries are commonplace. What isn’t as common as years past, is […]

FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (2/26/18): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

I'll be honest, I am starting to get the multi-sport cravings again. The beautiful thing about hoops is that, up through the Super Bowl, we always have another sport to play and having that really decreases the chances you get burnt out on one sport. February changes all that, and it's been a long, short […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/24/18): NBA DFS Lineups

There are a lot of solid options in the first weekend back after the horrendously long All-Star break.

In this article, I will be providing […]
