Devin Booker Bounces Back With 43 Points

Phoenix Suns shooting guard Devin Booker scored a season-high 43 points on 14 of 29 shooting in a 111-118 loss against the Trail Blazers on Tuesday. Booker has struggled with his shot in 2018, connecting on just 40 percent of his attempts in January. Booker would add eight assists and five treys, including a perfect […]

T.J. Warren and Marquese Chriss Ruled Out

Phoenix Suns small forward T.J. Warren (back) and forward/center Marquese Chriss (hip) have been ruled out of Tuesday's contest against the Portland Trail Blazers. Both players were listed as questionable heading into Tuesday but will be sidelined for the contest. Josh Jackson is expected to start for Warren and will be a solid DFS option […]

Josh Jackson Questionable Against Blazers

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Josh Jackson (groin) is questionable to play against the Portland Trail Blazers on Tuesday. He was listed as questionable for Sunday's game as well and started in place of T.J. Warren (back) in that one. Jackson scored a career-high 21 points in 30 minutes during Sunday's contest. Over the last four games, […]

T.J. Warren Questionable on Tuesday

Phoenix Suns small forward T.J. Warren (back) is listed as questionable to play against the Portland Trail Blazers on Tuesday. Josh Jackson (groin) started for Warren in Sunday's loss to the Indiana Pacers. He scored a career-high 21 points in 30 minutes. He would likely get the start if Warren is unable to play, but […]

Marquese Chriss Doubtful on Tuesday

Phoenix Suns forward/center Marquese Chriss (hip) is doubtful to play against the Portland Trail Blazers on Tuesday. He's missed each of the last two games and is likely going to be on the sidelines again Tuesday. Dragan Bender is expected to start if Chriss is unable to suit up. Bender scored zero points on 0-for-7 […]

Alex Len Posts Double-Double off the Bench

Phoenix Suns center Alex Len was productive, unlike most of his team, during the loss to the Indiana Pacers on Sunday night. Despite coming off of the bench, Len produced a double-double, scoring 12 points and pulling down 10 boards in only 19 minutes of action. However, Len remains a hit-or-miss type of player who […]

Dragan Bender Scoreless on Sunday

Phoenix Suns forward Dragan Bender got the start once again for the injured Marquese Chriss (hip) but it didn't make a difference. Bender failed to score a single point in the 120-97 loss to Indiana, shooting a dreadful 0-for-7 from the field and an equally unimpressive 0-for-6 from deep. Though he pulled down five boards, […]

Josh Jackson Scores Career-High 21 Points in Rout

Phoenix Suns forward Josh Jackson got the start for the injured forward T.J. Warren (back) and took advantage of it in a big way. Jackson scored a career-high 21 points on 7-for-16 from the field and 2-for-6 from deep. He also contributed elsewhere slightly, pulling down six boards and dishing out three assists, but it […]

Tyson Chandler Pulls Down 10,000th Rebound

Phoenix Suns center Tyson Chandler made history on Sunday night, becoming the 40th player in NBA history to record 10,000 career rebounds. Despite his accomplishment, nothing else would go right for his team as they would get mauled by the Indiana Pacers 120-97. Chandler was his usual ineffective self on the offensive end, scoring only […]

Devin Booker Cold on Sunday

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker struggled during Sunday's beating at the hands of Victor Oladipo and the Indiana Pacers. Booker struggled all night, going 5-for-16 from the field and 1-for-6 from deep for a total of 15 points. He managed to dish out seven assists and pull down five boards, but it wasn't enough as […]

Isaiah Canaan is Probable on Friday

Phoenix Suns point guard Isaiah Canaan (groin) is probable to play against the Houston Rockets on Friday. He's missed two straight games, but was upgraded to probable for Friday's contest. Canaan only tends to see about 20 minutes on the court, so he's not expected to have a minutes limit. He's averaging 9.1 points, 4.5 […]

Josh Jackson Doubtful on Friday

Phoenix Suns guard/forward Josh Jackson (groin) is doubtful to play against the Houston Rockets on Friday. Jackson said he doesn't think he'll be able to take the court against Houston. It sounds like he'll be joining Marquese Chriss (hip) on the sidelines for Friday's contest. Groin injuries can be difficult because of the high risk […]

Buy, Sell or Hold: Josh Richardson and Hassan Whiteside?

It's a Florida New Year special here at RotoBaller as we are taking a look at two Miami Heat players with very different seasons so far. Hassan Whiteside has been back for half a dozen of games now, but he still hasn't shone as bright as he can. Will he be back to his old double-doubling, shot-blocking […]

FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (1/9/18): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

It's a small slate as usual this Tuesday, but that doesn't mean there isn't plenty to discuss. Based on early injury news, Shabazz Napier is an easy option to lock in at point guard. From there, a decision has to be made on Russell Westbrook. I lean away from playing him based on his price, […]

Hopefully, everyone has had a great start to 2018. The NBA features a five game slate on Sunday with many of those games featuring an abundance of mismatches.

Fantasy Basketball Risers and Fallers (Week 13)

It was a fun week of basketball with a few marquee games, including the return of Isaiah Thomas against Portland on Tuesday, a (Thomas-less) Cavaliers/Celtics game on Wednesday, and a Warriors/Rockets game on Thursday that was exciting in spite of the fact that Golden State was without Kevin Durant and Houston was without James Harden. […]

Tyson Chandler Will Start Against Spurs

Phoenix Suns center Tyson Chandler (rest) will start at center against the San Antonio Spurs on Friday. Chandler was rested in Wednesday's loss to the Denver Nuggets.

T.J. Warren is Questionable Friday

Phoenix Suns small forward T.J. Warren (illness) is questionable to play against the San Antonio Spurs on Friday. Warren has started in each of the Suns first 40 games this season, but looks like a game-time decision Friday. If Warren is unable to play, Josh Jackson and Troy Daniels would see increased minutes on the […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/5/18): NBA DFS Lineups

There were only two games last night, but that opens up a big slate for tonight. We have 10 games, which gives up a solid amount of players to choose from.
