2023 NBA Mock Draft: Victor Wembanyama...Then Who?
The NBA never stops. With the Finals still fresh in mind, it's now time for the 2023 NBA Draft. Teams lagging in the competition hope to select players that can turn their fortunes around. While there are 30 NBA teams, the 2023 draft will feature only 58 picks. The Chicago Bulls and the Philadelphia 76ers […]
2023 NBA Mock Draft: Lottery Pick Predictions
Today, RotoBallers, I'm going to be doing an NBA mock draft. The draft is really going to be based on overall team fit, projected draft range, and my opinion on the best landing spot. Throughout this mock draft, I will consider the strengths and weaknesses of the available prospects, the needs of the teams, and […]
Paolo Banchero Wins Rookie Of The Year
Orlando Magic forward Paolo Banchero took home the 2022-23 Rookie of the Year award by a landslide and missed a unanimous decision by just two votes. The number-one overall pick averaged 20.0 points, 6.9 rebounds, and 3.7 assists per game while shooting 42.7% on 15.6 field goal attempts and 29.8% on 4.0 three-point attempts per […]
The Top Move Each NBA Lottery Team Must Make This Offseason
The play-in tournament was created to put an end to "tanking" once and for all, but it hasn't quite worked that way. Tanking is still a thing, as NBA teams don't want to be stuck in "No Man's Land," the middle zone of a seventh to 10th-place finish. And, who can blame them? As of […]
Jonathan Isaac Expects To Be Ready For Next Season
Orlando Magic forward Jonathan Isaac (thigh) expects to be ready for the start of the 2023-24 campaign, reports Khobi Price of the Orlando Sentinel. Isaac expects to be "full go" for basketball activities in a few weeks, so he'll have plenty of time to gear up for the new season. The 25-year-old, who was a […]
DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (4/9/23): NBA DFS Lineups
This is the last day of regular season in the NBA, which means most teams on the slate don't have anything important to play for. Identifying the teams that are playing to improve their seeding is a huge key because they are the ones who we can count on their starters and rotation players to […]
Wendell Carter Jr. Upgraded To Questionable
Orlando Magic center Wendell Carter Jr. (hip) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Miami Heat. He was originally listed as out on the injury report, but that appears to have changed. Bol Bol and Goga Bitadze have been starting in place of Carter over the last two games. Obviously, they'd take a […]
Top Five Greatest Midseason Turnarounds In NBA History
The LA Lakers have made many people look foolish this season. After a terrible start to the season, LeBron James and his teammates have been on a roll and are now guaranteed a spot in the play-in tournament. NBA history tends to repeat itself, and we can probably learn a lot about the Lakers' postseason […]
Markelle Fultz To Sit Out On Thursday
Orlando Magic guard Markelle Fultz (rest) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. The Magic have been eliminated from the postseason, so they will rest all their starters in this game. It's possible that the starters don't play again over the final three games. If that's true, Fultz has rebounded nicely […]

The last Thursday of the NBA regular season is here, and for DFS grinders, the end can't come soon enough. The players that are already ruled out for rest/tanking purposes is the easy part. It's the guys that start the game and play single-digit minutes that are the minefields now. It's messy, and it makes […]

DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (4/2/23): NBA DFS Lineups
We're coming down the home stretch of the NBA season, and it's certainly evident by some of the lineups that teams are trotting out these days. The Trail Blazers aren't on the main slate, but you could argue that they don't have more than two players who should be in an NBA rotation. So, that's […]
Paolo Banchero Shines Against Washington
Orlando Magic forward Paolo Banchero had one of the best games of his young career Friday, putting up a game-high 30 points and adding 12 rebounds, six assists and three blocks in a 116-109 win over Washington. Banchero's shooting was a bit shaky again, as he finished 8-for-17 from the field, but it was a […]

Jalen Suggs Cleared To Return Versus The Nets
Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs (head) will return on Sunday against Brooklyn. He's been in concussion protocol, costing him the last four games. As a result, Caleb Houstan, who's logged at least 14 minutes while Suggs has been sidelined, will likely suffer the most from a fantasy standpoint. But considering Suggs has averaged only 9.7 […]
Franz Wagner Will Suit Up Against Brooklyn
Orlando Magic forward Franz Wagner (ankle) will play on Sunday against Brooklyn. The 21-year-old tweaked his ankle in Thursday's matchup with the New York Knicks. However, he's good to go. Considering the Magic are barely in the postseason conversation, Wagner is likely 100%, or else he wouldn't be playing, meaning he should see his usual […]
DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/25/23): NBA DFS Lineups
As expected on a Saturday, we have a meager five-game slate on tap in the NBA. The Jazz-Kings and Bucks-Nuggets matchups hold the highest implied total and profile as the top games to target for our DFS lineups, but it being a smaller slate means we'll need to consider all ten squads. Half of the […]
Franz Wagner Won't Return On Thursday
Orlando Magic forward Franz Wagner (ankle) has been ruled out for the rest of Thursday's game against the New York Knicks. The young forward suffered a sprained left ankle during the third quarter. Wagner was taken to the locker room with help from the team trainers. Cole Anthony and Caleb Houstan should both see additional […]

DraftKings And FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/23/23): NBA DFS Lineups
Our Thursday night brings us the same number of NBA games as NCAA games, and surprisingly, the NBA landscape looks pretty clear as of now. Of course, that almost never lasts up until tipoff, but let's enjoy it while we can. We know that Paul George and Zion will be out, but no one else […]
Jalen Suggs Ruled Out For Thursday
Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs (concussion) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the New York Knicks. The 21-year-old will miss at least one more contest while he remains in concussion protocol. It's uncertain how much longer he'll be sidelined, so fantasy managers will have to check back for another update. In the meantime, […]
Paolo Banchero Falls Just Shy Of A Triple-Double
Orlando Magic forward Paolo Banchero fell just one rebound and two assists shy of his first career triple-double during a 10-point win over the Washington Wizards. The rookie ended the game with 18 points, nine rebounds, eight assists, and one steal while shooting 6-for-9 from the floor and a perfect 6-for-6 from the charity stripe. […]

Jalen Suggs Remains Out Tuesday
Orlando Magic guard Jalen Suggs (concussion) will not play Tuesday against the Washington Wizards. Suggs continues to deal with a concussion and is still in the league's protocols. Cole Anthony should continue to get extra run off the bench and has scored in double digits for five straight games. Suggs will need to be cleared […]
Early-Week Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers For Week 22
It's championship week! Most leagues around the country will wrap up this week, leaving the final week and a half (and the inevitable chaos that ensues) out of their playoff format. And if your league doesn't already do this, you should have a conversation about moving your playoffs back, honestly. Heck, I have seen a […]
DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/19/23): NBA DFS Lineups
It's a glorious Sunday, and we have our typically small five-game slate on tap for tonight's main slate in the NBA. The Clippers-Blazers and Raptors-Bucks matchups hold the high implied totals, but we'll need to consider all ten teams as it's a small slate, and there isn't much in the way of obvious value plays. […]
Wendell Carter Jr. Outstanding Against The Clippers
Orlando Magic forward/center Wendell Carter Jr. filled up the box score Saturday against the Clippers, recording 27 points and 12 rebounds with two assists, three steals and two blocks. His third double-double in four games and overall superb play helped the team to a sweet 113-108 road victory. Carter Jr. shot 11-for-19 from the field […]
