FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (4/18/19): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

With the significantly smaller slates, making winning lineups are going to be tougher than they have been all season. Each teams rotation has shrunk, and players are going to find consistent value more scarce as the playoffs move on. Immediate backups like Patty Mills are always going to be considered safe options, but don't expect […]

Philadelphia 76ers guard Jimmy Butler spent most of the first game of the 76ers/Nets series attacking and scoring at will, as he was Philadelphia’s lone bright spot in a rough Game 1 loss.

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (4/15/19): NBA DFS Lineups

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (4/14/19): NBA DFS Lineups

If you missed last night's games, I highly recommend taking the time to watch. It's quite hilarious when narratives from regular and previous season bleed into the playoffs.

Joel Embiid Scores 22 Points In Game 1 Loss

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid provided a solid line on paper, but the big man was not himself after being a game-time decision entering Game 1 on Saturday.

Jonah Bolden is Questionable for Game 1

Philadelphia 76ers center Jonah Bolden (knee) is listed as questionable for Game 1 versus the Brooklyn Nets on Saturday. He was able to get in some work during practice on Friday, but it remains unknown if he's healthy enough to play in this contest. Joel Embiid (knee) is a game-time decision, so Greg Monroe and […]

Joel Embiid is Uncertain for Saturday

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (knee) is a game-time decision for Saturday's game against the Brooklyn Nets.

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (4/13/19): NBA DFS Lineups

It's about time the playoffs started. These last two months have been entertaining, but dreadful from a competitive standpoint.

Hopefully you are still playing and truth […]

Philadelphia 76ers centers Joel Embiid (rest) and Jonah Bolden (knee) have been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Chicago Bulls.
