Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (3/9/22)

When you take a stand on games early in the day, sometimes the late injury news works out in your favor and sometimes it bites you. I was counting on Nikola Vucevic playing for Chicago on Monday night, but he didn't suit up and the Bulls failed to cover against the red-hot Sixers. We did […]

Happy Tuesday, Rotoballers! The Association has six games on the schedule for the early portion of the week, with some surprising matchups to watch for an early March evening.

Joel Embiid Dominates En Route To 43-Point Double-Double

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid feasted against a banged-up Bulls frontcourt during Monday's win, compiling 43 points on 15-for-27 shooting. To tie a knot around his performance, Embiid added 14 rebounds, three blocks, two assists and two steals, adding further fuel to his MVP fire. Currently in the midst of a stretch where he has […]

Danny Green Won't Return On Monday

Philadelphia 76ers forward Danny Green (finger) has been ruled out for the rest of Monday's game against the Chicago Bulls. The veteran forward has been ruled out after lacerating his left middle finger in the third quarter. He finished with three points, three boards, and one assist in 10 minutes. This doesn't seem like the […]

NBA Waiver Wire Streamers for Fantasy Basketball Week 20 (Mar 7 - Mar 13)

Most fantasy leagues start their playoffs either next week or in Week 21. Ahhh, don't you just love this time of the year!? Whether your playoffs have already started, or you're at the end of trying to make them in the first place (or just secure a better seed) there should be no more sentiment. […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/7/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups

The NBA roars into the new week with a nine-game slate as the stretch run continues. There are a couple of particularly intriguing matchups on tap that should feature heavy minutes from big-name players, but the Warriors-Nuggets game is a notable exception with Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson and Andrew Wiggins all notably sitting out the […]

So I took the weekend off from the NBA betting and just played a little DFS. Things are going to get interesting here down the stretch as most teams have about 18-20 games remaining in the regular season. We are seeing the playoff picture in both conferences shake out and some teams go full tank […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/5/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups

There are five games on the main slate tonight in the NBA, which is something we should be used to by now as weekends have typically been on the lighter side in terms of games played. That's OK, though, as it allows us more ability to zero in on our preferred plays as opposed to […]

James Harden Will Rest Against Miami

Philadelphia 76ers guard James Harden (hamstring) won't suit up against the Heat on Saturday. The former MVP is feeling just fine. However, after logging 35 minutes against the Cleveland Cavaliers on Friday, Harden will get the night off to rest his hamstring. Nevertheless, Tyrese Maxey, Joel Embiid, and Tobias Harris should be the primary contributors […]

Tyrese Maxey Ties Season High With 33-Point Outing Friday

Philadelphia 76ers point guard Tyrese Maxey was firing on all cylinders offensively during Friday's win over the Cavaliers, collecting a season-high-tying 33 points, giving the trio of himself, Joel Embiid, and James Harden 20 or more points each in four consecutive games. Any concerns about Maxey's fantasy upside falling off in Harden's arrival have been […]

NBA DFS Prop Picks for 3/4/22 - Monkey Knife Fight

The end of the NBA season is a double-edged sword. The closer we get to the finish, the more the games either do, or don’t matter. Sounds dumb, but depending on where exactly you are in the standings, some games simply don’t matter. Tonight, every game carries some type of weight, even a matchup between […]

Willie Cauley-Stein Likely To Be Waived

Philadelphia 76ers center Willie Cauley-Stein is expected to be waived by the organization. His 10-day contract with the team expires soon, and he hasn't brought much to the table since joining Philly. Also, the team plans to sign DeAndre Jordan once he clears waivers. Sadly, Cauley-Stein is the odd man out as the Sixers don't […]

Mid-Week Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers for Week 20: Lonnie Walker IV, Jaxson Hayes, Gabe Vincent, Jae Crowder

NBA DFS Prop Picks for 3/2/22 - Monkey Knife Fight

Competition increases every night and every one of last night’s games came down to the waning minutes of the fourth quarter. The NBA is in a great spot right now, all thanks to the players. Entertainment has been peaking on a nightly basis and younger players are proving not only why they belong in this […]

Tobias Harris Embraces Modified Role Alongside James Harden

Philadelphia 76ers power forward Tobias Harris spent the first half of the 2021-22 season as Philly's No. 2 scoring option, a role that has drastically changed upon the arrival of James Harden in the blockbuster deal with Brooklyn. But Harris, who has combined for 18 points on 5-for-18 shooting in two games alongside Harden thus […]

Fantasy Basketball Injury Updates for Week 19 - Ben Simmons, Darius Garland, Josh Giddey, OG Anunoby, Michael Porter Jr., Chris Paul

We're now entering fantasy playoffs time for NBA basketball, so you should be double-checking things regardless. There's no room for mistakes when you're up for a 'ship. I've lost matchups by a few steals or a few rebounds in the last few seasons, for example. That's the margin. No errors! Since the stakes are high, […]

Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers for Week 19: Isaiah Jackson, Oshae Brissett, Chuma Okeke, Brandon Goodwin

Did you all miss me for a week? I bet you did. Even though you can't tell me through this computer screen, I'm sure you did. We're back though, and some leagues will be starting their FANTASY BASKETBALL PLAYOFFS this week while others will be jockeying for playoff positioning. I have two leagues entering playoffs […]

NBA DFS Prop Picks for 2/27/22 - Monkey Knife Fight

Eight games on this wonderful Sunday starting with two, inter-conference games carrying significant playoff implications. The new-look 76ers and Knicks kick everything off with a 1:00PM EST start, followed by the Jazz versus a Chris Paul-less Suns team. After the All-Star break, consistency and the NBA don’t really see eye-to-eye, so expect a lot these […]

It was a rough night for player props (0-3), but I went 3-1 on totals and spreads with the only miss there being a big whiff on the Raptors who got blown out by the Hornets. There were some sweaty moments in there as the Spurs needed three overtimes to finally put Washington away and […]

Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (2/25/22)

Last night the NBA returned from a week-long break and whet our appetites for basketball action. Tonight, we get nine more games and our first glimpse at the James Harden era in Philly and the Malcolm Brogdon-Tyrese Haliburton experiment in Indiana. The only really big surprise last night was my beloved Cavaliers faltering against Detroit […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/25/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups

Happy Friday RotoBallers! As usual, we have a jam-packed Friday night slate, filled with some juicy matchups. However, this is going to be quite the weird slate with multiple incomplete active rosters after yesterday's trade deadline. These articles focus on the overall best plays, which are typically more suited for cash games. However, with larger […]

James Harden Will Make 76ers Debut Friday

Philadelphia 76ers point/shooting guard James Harden (hamstring) has been given the green light to make his team debut for Friday's contest against Minnesota. Harden last suited up Feb. 2 while with the Nets, having since been a part of the Trade Deadline blockbuster that landed him in Philly. Harden is one of two players (Chris […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/24/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups

The NBA returns from the All-Star break with a solid seven-game slate Thursday night. What always makes the first night of post-All-Star-break play intriguing is that teams come in with a degree of rest that isn't possible at any other point in time past Opening Night. The injury report is unsurprisingly light overall on short-term […]

Buy-Low, Sell-High, NBA Fantasy Basketball Playoffs

All-Star weekend has come to a close, which means two things. One, and maybe most obvious, we're in the second half of the 2021-22 NBA season. Two, we're nearing the fantasy basketball playoffs, which is maybe not as obvious if you don't play the game, but that's likely why you're reading this article in the […]

Willie Cauley-Stein Signs 10-Day Deal With 76ers

Free-agent center Willie Cauley-Stein has signed a 10-day deal with the Philadelphia 76ers. The former sixth overall pick hasn't played since late November due to personal reasons. He was cut by the Dallas Mavericks after having a bench role with the team over the last few seasons. The Sixers are in need of a center […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/20): All-Star Game NBA DFS Lineups

We have a treat in store tonight as the 71st edition of the NBA All-Star Game will take place at Rocket Mortgage FieldHouse in Cleveland, Ohio.

After a particularly extended pre-All-Star-break portion of the season, the NBA is finally ready for its week-long pause to its 2021-22 campaign.

It was a total mixed bag of results in yesterday's column and an overall mark of 3-3. The Cavs really let me down and you know I watched every minute of that game waiting for them to take control late, but it was just the opposite as Trae Young had a terrific night, and guys […]
