I hope everyone enjoyed their Christmas and was able to give/receive everything they wanted! Hopefully I can help you recoup some of the money you spent on others yesterday on the slate tonight. In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on 12/26/17. The DFS lineup picks will […]

NBA Weekly Streamers for Week 11 (12/25-12/31)

This year we'll take more of a holistic approach to streaming, by providing a weekly overview of which teams to look at based on their schedules and what players to consider targeting in advance to maximize the bang for the buck you get out of limited weekly transactions. Streaming is just about maximizing a roster […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (12/25/17): NBA DFS Advice

Merry Christmas, I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday. On one of the biggest days of the year in the association, we have five games to help us get through a day filled with noisy kids, grouchy old people and drunk uncles. In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup […]

Fantasy Basketball Risers and Fallers (Week 11)

We're heading into another week of NBA action. This is a bit of a weird one coming up, with exactly zero games scheduled on Sunday for Christmas Eve. Can we survive a basketball-less day? I...don't know! But we do get a good slate of Christmas games as a reward! And we get another week of […]

NBA Injuries and Who Can Benefit Instead (Week 10)

Just how frustrated are we with injuries in the NBA this season? It seems as if Player X returns, Player B gets injured. The injury bug has been real this season, and it's like a plague that continues to spread across the league. Understanding the injury landscape is key in all forms of fantasy basketball. […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (12/21/17): NBA DFS Advice

In theory, a five-game Thursday slate should be reason for celebration! However, with tighter DraftKings pricing, a handful of injuries, and seven of the ten teams on a back-to-back, I feel oddly unsatified as I tool through the player pool. Not to mention all of the duds last night that leave us with an uneasy […]

NBA Heat Check: Surging Players in Week 10

And that’s another week of NBA basketball in the books. As teams jockey for position, players start to fall in and out of the rotation. Rookies start getting comfortable with the intensity of professional basketball and veterans flaunt their experience with consistent play. But on any given night, every player is capable of blowing up […]

FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (12/19/17): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

Tuesday's slate is in stark contrast to Monday's monstrous night as there are only three games on tap. With the Sacramento Kings nightmare rotation as one of the options, it's fair to say the pickings are slim. On small slates like this, I prefer to play with more of a cash game mindset. Lock in […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (12/19/17): NBA DFS Advice

If you plan on playing NBA DFS on Christmas Day, this slate will serve as great practice for you. We only have three games on Tuesday, but we have seven players above $8,000, and while we're still waiting on a line for the Washington and New Orleans game, I'd imagine every game will have a […]

NBA Weekly Streamers for Week 10 (12/18-12/14)

This year we'll take more of a holistic approach to streaming, by providing a weekly overview of which teams to look at based on their schedules and what players to consider targeting in advance to maximize the bang for the buck you get out of limited weekly transactions. Streaming is just about maximizing a roster […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (12/18/17): NBA DFS Advice

If you are out of your fantasy football playoffs, snap out of it and divert that energy from the heartbreak and focus on fantasy hoops. With 10 games on tap and plenty of injuries, things are looking real interesting on Monday night. If you haven't played fantasy hoops or are thinking about it, there isn't […]

FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (12/18/17): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

We have a monstrous slate tonight. I, for one, am very happy about this. I'm always happy about DFS basketball, but this excitement may or may not be elevated thanks to the very disappointing day I had in football yesterday. Anyway, 10 games on deck tonight, with tip (and lock) at 7 pm EST and only […]

Steven Adams: A Dive Down Under Oklahoma City’s “Big 3”

Fresh off a fantastic triple overtime victory on Friday over the 76ers, the Oklahoma City Thunder look to ease off its fans’ worries. It’s been a rollercoaster in the past two years for die hard Thunder fans: a gut-wrenching 2016 loss of Kevin Durant to the League’s villains, the Golden State Warriors, followed by a […]

FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (12/15/17): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

Happy Friday to all of you! We've got lots and lots of basketball tonight, which is an excellent way to kick off the weekend. Eleven games, to be exact, so contest selection will be an extra important piece of the puzzle tonight. Tip, as is customary for Friday's, is at 7PM Eastern, so have those […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (12/15/17)

There was a slightly small slate last night, but we have a massive slate tonight. With that being said, the forward options on this slate are far from elite. The guard position is significantly better, and that seems like the position to attack tonight. In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy […]

NBA Injuries and Who Can Benefit Instead (Week 9)

The injury bug has been real this season, and it's like a plague that continues to spread across the league. Understanding the injury landscape is key in all forms of fantasy basketball. Unfortunately, injuries will happen more often than not. It is just the nature of the game. However, in order to stay ahead of […]

NBA Heat Check: Surging Players in Week 9

Another week, another heat check. We’re nearing the halfway mark of the fantasy season and players have mostly settled into their roles. Of course, there’s always a couple outliers. Players break out for huge games seemingly out of nowhere. Maybe they finally got comfortable and figured it out, or maybe they finally got a good […]

NBA Waiver Wire: Standard Leagues (Week 9)

It's Week 9 – to cut bait, or to hold on? Many have cut bait on their mid-round players, which makes one man's trash your treasure. With injuries tearing up many fantasy squads right now, you need these middle ground guys more than ever, so take advantage of what the wire has to offer before […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (12/12/17)

If you avoided the carnage that was the NBA DFS slate last night, I am truly, truly jealous of you. Not only did I have a ton of exposure to both Draymond Green and Danilo Gallinari, but I also had both of them in my cash game lineup. Talk about flushing money down the drain. […]

Fantasy Basketball Risers and Fallers for NBA Week 9

The NBA season keeps chugging along, though it feels like injuries are starting to take a toll across the league. John Wall. Anthony Davis. Nikola Jokic. But for every injury, there's (probably) someone who's benefiting, right? In New Orleans, for example, DeMarcus Cousins has been on fire, including a 40-point, 22-rebound game against Denver. Why […]

Jahlil Okafor Unchained! What Does it Mean for Fantasy Owners?

Jahlil Okafor has finally been released from his Philadelphia nightmare and is on his way to join the Brooklyn Nets. Along with Okafor, the 76ers sent Nik Stauskas and a 2019 second-round pick for veteran forward Trevor Booker. Many analysts see this as a win-win move for both teams. But we're not here to ponder over how […]

FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (12/10/17)

There are only six games on Sunday so I'll be addressing the "all-day" slate. Today's theme is rebound games. Nearly all of the players I am advising are lined up for rebound games and most or high-risk plays. When you take a player who is not guaranteed to score, you tread into muddy territory that […]

FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (12/9/17)

Sunday starts off early with Wizards @ Clippers at 2:30PM, followed by Heat @ Brooklyn at 5PM. Both games offer a ton of value, especially in Clipper and Wizard backcourts. John Wall missing time means the Wizards will look to Tim Frazier for replacement production and opposing point guards have an grossly more favorable matchup. […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (12/9/17)

We have a big eight game NBA slate to start off our weekend, and there are some very interesting options across the board. There are a number of injuries going around, so this should open up some value plays once we get the starting lineups. In this article, I will be providing you with my daily […]

Donovan Mitchell: The Ascent of the Don

After Gordon Hayward decided to sign with the Boston Celtics over the summer, a great deal of uncertainty loomed for the Utah Jazz and their future. Rudy Gobert is a menacing rim protector and tenacious rebounder, however he is far from being a polished offensive player. Who would they rely on when they need buckets […]

NBA Roster Doctor: Crne Vrane Doesn't Need Many Assists

Fantasy basketball strategy doesn’t exist in a vacuum. Some decisions are easy – if they offer you James Harden for your Aaron Gordon, you take it and run, you don’t need anyone to tell you that. Most trade offers and waiver decisions are not that black and white however, and the answer is very context […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (12/7/17): NBA DFS Advice

Unlike Tuesday, this short slate on Thursday night has a lot of promise! For starters, there are no back-to-backs. But wait, there's more... Every total is over 208, and three of the four totals are 215 or higher! Also, no spread is more than eight points. Translation: There should be plenty of potential plays and […]

Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (12/7/17): NBA DFS Advice For FanDuel

A small slate of games means even smaller chance of error. You will need to be precise with your picks and make sure you pick the right players that will be going off on Thursday night. Luckily, even though the options are limited, all the teams scheduled to play have offenses that have been playing […]

NBA DFS Risers/Fallers for Week 8

We're rolling into December, and, as Coach Kidd put it, this is the time when "the vets really start playing." We've also now seen enough games to get a clearer picture of rotations, minutes, and Usage rates. With that in mind, it's important to monitor daily fantasy salaries as they still fluctuate on a regular […]
