Tobias Harris Scores Game-High 27 Points In Loss To Heat

Philadelphia 76ers forward Tobias Harris stepped his game up with Joel Embiid (head) sidelined for Game 1 against the Miami Heat on Monday. He shot 11-for-18 from the field and 4-for-5 from the free throw line on the way to a game-high 27 points. He also compiled six rebounds, one assist and one block. Unfortunately, […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (5/2/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups

The NBA playoffs roll on Monday with a second set of second-round games. The two-game slate narrows our player pool plenty, but Monday, it's even more sparse on star power when factoring Joel Embiid's and Kyle Lowry's confirmed absences, as well as a possible one on the part of Jimmy Butler due to his knee […]

Day one of the second round of the NBA Playoffs is in the books and got both of the outcomes we were hoping for as the Bucks stomped the Celtics as underdogs, winning us our spread and ML bet while the Warriors were able to hang on to beat Memphis in a nail-biter. It turns […]

Sixers To Take Committee Approach With Joel Embiid Out

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (face, concussion) will be sidelined indefinitely after sustaining an orbital fracture during the Game 6 series-clinching win versus Toronto. Without its superstar, the team will need to fill a void at the position, although head coach Doc Rivers indicated he is prepared to take the committee approach. Philadelphia currently has […]

There is only one NBA game tonight and it's  the first time we have had only one game all postseason! That means we don't have a conventional NBA DFS slate, but we do have single-game contests on both FanDuel and DraftKings (where they cool kids call it Showdown!) Hey, everyone, I'm "Thunder Dan" Palyo and […]

Happy Thursday, RotoBallers! We could be playing our last three-game slate of the NBA DFS season, depending on tonight's results. While the playoffs get better as we get deeper into the postseason, it becomes slim pickings in DFS land. So, cards on the table, I'm cheering for all three home teams to win and give […]

After a sub-par night of bets on Tuesday night, I needed a day off yesterday to clear my head, get some rest, and if we are being honest - focus on baseball for a bit. Round one is winding down as the Heat clinched their series on Tuesday while the Bucks and Warriors both cashed […]

All in all, it was a pretty good night! The Celtics won outright at plus money and finished off their sweep of the Nets while the Mavericks dominated the Jazz and in dismantling them, held them to 72 total points so we hit the spread AND the total there. Both of our Mavs' wings hit […]

James Harden Struggles In Game 5

Philadelphia 76ers guard James Harden had a difficult time making shots during Monday's Game 5 against the Toronto Raptors. He connected on 4-of-15 shots for 15 points, five assists, and five turnovers in the loss. The Sixers have dropped their second game in a row as they head to Toronto for Game 6 on Thursday. […]

The NBA playoffs continued to get more intriguing over the weekend, and we're now set for a three-game slate Monday night. There's a bit of everything on the ledger -- the Celtics could pull off the clean sweep of the Nets, the 76ers have a chance to also advance after dropping Game 4 to the […]

We are back to three-game slates this week and at some point probably some two gamers as the Sixers, Warriors, Heat, Bucks, and Celtics all have a chance to finish their series in the next few days with a win. Sunday was a mixed bag of results. I did hit the over in two of […]

Joel Embiid Confirmed To Have Torn Ligament In Thumb

On Sunday, Philadelphia 76ers head coach Doc Rivers told the media that an MRI has confirmed that star center Joel Embiid (thumb) has a torn ligament in his right thumb. Rivers also reiterated that the torn ligament won't change Embiid's availability for the postseason. The seven-footer is currently averaging 26.0 points and 11.8 rebounds per […]

It was a great day of NBA basketball yesterday and that's not just because I won more bets than I lost either. All the games were pretty tight right up to the end and I nearly pulled off the sweep on picking sides until the Grizzlies lost in the late game. Dallas should have won […]

Friday night's game featured two games that came down to the wire and one big ole' Bucks blowout. The Miami Heat choked away game three in the fourth quarter, costing me a chance at going 3-0 on sides last night and busting up my parlays. Jimmy Butler took some ill-advised shots on the final two […]

Four matchups on tap in the Association today, kicking off with a Sixers-Raptors contest that figures to be a relative snoozer compared to the rest of the slate. The Mavericks-Jazz affair is also not profiling as an appealing game to target for daily fantasy, but Luka Doncic is looking to make his return and we […]

Matisse Thybulle Out For Game 4

Philadelphia 76ers guard Matisse Thybulle won't play in Saturday's postseason bout versus the Toronto Raptors. The 25-year-old hasn't received a full dose of the COVID-19 vaccine, so he's not permitted to enter Canada. As a result, Danny Green, who played 46 minutes and finished with nine points, seven boards, and two steals during the Sixers' […]

Joel Embiid Not On The Injury Report Ahead Of Game 4

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (thumb) isn't listed on the league's official injury report ahead of Saturday's matchup against Toronto. The MVP candidate was recently seen wearing a soft cast on his right thumb, and he's reportedly dealing with a significant amount of pain and discomfort. He may have a torn ligament, so despite averaging […]

We're primed for yet another three-game playoff slate tonight and another solid NBA DFS slate. We have three game threes on the docket tonight! The Memphis-Minnesota series is knotted 1-1 heading into game three as is the Utah-Dallas series. Meanwhile, the Nuggets are fighting for their playoffs lives as they come home down 0-2 to […]

Joel Embiid Wearing Soft Cast

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid (wrist) was seen wearing a soft cast after Wednesday's playoff victory over the Toronto Raptors. The All-Star big man said that he was fine, so it doesn't sound like he is in danger of missing any time. Embiid finished with 33 points, 13 rebounds, and two assists during Wednesday's overtime […]

Last night featured three really great games and I hope you take a minute to realize just how good these first-round games have been so far. I was sweating the Celtics in the first half, but sure enough, they found a way to battle back and win (and cover) in the second half. Al Horford […]

Happy Wednesday RotoBallers! Welcome to a playoff edition of the Wednesday night top plays. These articles focus on the overall best plays, which are typically more suited for cash games. However, with rotations getting shortened and the slate being so small, there probably isn't going to be a ton of leverage to be found, so […]

It's beginning to become a bit of a pattern here this postseason. I watch the first game of the night. Things go well. Hawks pull away late and cover. Jimmy Butler gets two steals (and scores a bazillion points in an epic performance). So far good. Then the Grizzlies smack the T-Wolves in the second […]

I have officially rebuked the Denver Nuggets and Nikola Jokic. My night was cruising right along with the Mavericks not only covering their spread but winning outright AND going over their team total. Jalen Brunson crushed his prop in the process, too. Then the Sixers took care of business and wiped out the Raptors to […]

Tyrese Maxey Nearly Posts Triple-Double

Philadelphia 76ers guard Tyrese Maxey nearly put together a career performance versus the Toronto Raptors on Monday. The young guard finished with 23 points, nine rebounds, and eight assists in Monday's Game 2 victory. He was a beast and held thing down when Joel Embiid was off the court. Maxey knocked down 8-of-11 shots and […]

We're primed for a three-game playoff slate Monday night that sees Saturday's Game 1 participants tangle in their Game 2 clashes. With the compact player pool and equally tight rotations run by most coaches this time of year, a DFS lineup can come together fairly quickly in terms of potential candidates at each position. Such […]

We have four more first-round playoff games in the Association on an Easter Sunday - what more can we ask for?
