Welcome to Rotation Watch, Rotoballers! Each week, this article will highlight the players that are gaining minutes in their team's rotation.

They want to avoid the players falling out of favor and watching the action from the sidelines. […]
Ben Simmons Could Sit Against Warriors
Philadelphia 76ers guard Ben Simmons (illness) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Golden State Warriors. He is dealing with a non-COVID related illness, so he shouldn't miss much time if any at all. His absence would mean more minutes for Shake Milton and Tyrese Maxey. Milton is the better option between the […]
Fantasy Basketball Deep League Adds: Week 17
The deeper a fantasy league, the harder it is to hit a winner with your last few picks. It is also harder to find decent help from the waiver wire if your late-round picks don't do you justice. If you picked up a few stinkers, don't lose hope just yet. I will try to help […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 3% of leagues ANALYSIS: Barring a small three-game stretch following the AS break, Furkan Korkmaz has been a below-average performer all year long.

George Hill Could Return Next Week
Philadelphia 76ers guard George Hill (thumb) is likely to get back on the court sometime next week, according to head coach Doc Rivers. He was acquired at the trade deadline, but has not played for the Sixers yet. Hill recently went through his first live practice with the team, so that's great news. He probably […]
Tobias Harris, Seth Curry, Dwight Howard All Out Friday
The Philadelphia 76ers are set to be considerably short-handed for Friday's game versus the Clippers with small/power forward Tobias Harris (knee), shooting guard Seth Curry (hip) and center Dwight Howard (knee) all ruled out. Harris' loss looms the largest, with Mike Scott likely to see a bump in minutes and usage, while Ben Simmons could […]
DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (4/16/21): NBA DFS Lineups
Yesterday was basically a day off in the Association, so that makes tonight a ten-game monster with an afternoon matinee if you still can't get enough. We already have a lot of the injury news, which is nice. Kyle Lowry is resting again and he will be joined by OG Anunoby and Pascal Siakam. His […]
Tobias Harris, Dwight Howard Questionable For Friday
Philadelphia 76ers forward Tobias Harris (knee) and center Dwight Howard (knee) are questionable for Friday's game against the Clippers. Harris seems more likely to go than Howard, who missed the team's last contest. If the veteran big man can't play- Joel Embiid would see all the minutes he can handle- with Mike Scott perhaps backing […]

Joel Embiid Crushes Nets With 39 Points, 13 Boards
Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid dominated against the Nets on Wednesday, finishing a 123-117 victory with a game-high 39 points and 13 rebounds. He collected a pair of assists and blocks as well while shooting 13-for-29 from the field and 10-for-11 at the foul line. Embiid, who was 3-for-6 with the three-ball, ended a six-game […]
Dwight Howard To Miss First Game Of Season
Philadelphia 76ers center Dwight Howard (knee) will not play Wednesday against the Brooklyn Nets. Howard will miss his first game of the season as he sits out with knee soreness. The Sixers will be back to one healthy center on the roster and Joel Embiid should see a ton of minutes. Mike Scott will likely […]
