DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (4/23/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups

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 […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (4/22/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups

Happy Friday RotoBallers! Welcome to a playoff edition of the Friday 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 […]

PrizePicks NBA DFS Prop Picks for Fantasy Basketball - Friday, April 22nd

The Atlanta Hawks are the only team playing Friday yet to win a game in their series. Assuming home-court advantage is the X-factor you need to win against the Miami Heat, or any team for that matter, creates nothing but false hope. All season, the Heat guards have been the single-most effective backcourt in stopping […]

I'm looking for that big night to flip my record as I'm languishing a few games under .500 this postseason. The night started off great with the Grizzlies overcoming two big deficits to pull out the win and cover. Ja Morant hit his assists props and things were looking good. I didn't bet the Utah […]

Devin Booker Could Be Out For Up To Three Weeks

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (hamstring) could miss up to three weeks. The superstar didn't return to Game 2 on Tuesday night after suffering a Grade 1 right hamstring strain in the third quarter. It's horrific news for the Suns, who had initially expected Booker to miss only a few games. However, Chris Paul will […]

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 […]

Chris Paul Scuffles From Field Amidst 14-Assist Outing

Phoenix Suns point guard Chris Paul logged his second consecutive double-double to begin the 2022 postseason, but this performance came with the caveat of shooting just 5-for-16 overall. Paul collected 17 points and 14 assists across his 36 minutes and was asked to shoulder a heavier offensive load during the second half with Devin Booker […]

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 […]

Devin Booker Exits Game 2 Due To Hamstring Ailment

Phoenix Suns shooting guard Devin Booker (hamstring) had an early knot tied on his Game 2 performance Tuesday due to a tight right hamstring. Booker was electric from the field during the first half, collecting 31 points and seven made triples by halftime. He finished shooting 12-for-19 overall across his 25 minutes, adding two rebounds, […]

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 […]

Happy Tuesday, Rotoballers! Tonight serves up three games on the DFS schedule, with three of the four highest-seeded teams taking the court. Miami and Phoenix will look to stretch their series advantage to two games against Atlanta and New Orleans, respectively. Meanwhile, Memphis must recapture what made them such a formidable regular-season team to avoid […]

We enter the third day of the NBA playoffs today with game two of three different series today. It looks like we will have three games per day all week, so as long as I can manage it with my MLB content schedule, I'll try to keep putting out daily picks all the way through […]

Chris Paul Drops 30-Point Double-Double In Game 1 Win

Phoenix Suns point guard Chris Paul kicked off his participation in the 2022 playoffs with a dominant 30-point, 10-assist showing in Sunday's victory over New Orleans. Paul delivered four postseason double-doubles during Phoenix's run to the NBA Finals last year, and he's already off on the right foot, having added seven rebounds and three steals […]

Landry Shamet Available For Game 1

Phoenix Suns guard Landry Shamet (foot) is listed as available for Sunday's first-round opener against the New Orleans Pelicans. The 25-year-old had been labeled as day-to-day after suffering a left foot injury ahead of Game 1. However, while Shamet will be in uniform, it's unlikely he will serve much of a purpose for DFS managers […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (4/17/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups

We have four more first-round playoff games in the Association on an Easter Sunday - what more can we ask for? The Bulls-Bucks game rates out as the most appealing game to target for daily fantasy purposes, while the remaining three games all project about even with each other. This means that the slate is […]

It's a whole lot easier writing this piece after a winning night. Recapping where I was right and talking about how a few bets just missed and held us back from a really big night. Instead, I am up well before the sun and most of the population on the East Coast to put the […]

Landry Shamet Misses Practice Friday

Phoenix Suns shooting guard/small forward Landry Shamet (foot) was unable to participate in Friday's practice, with head coach Monty Williams slapping a day-to-day designation on the sharpshooter. Shamet sustained a left foot injury preparing for Game 1 of the Western Conference playoffs vs. New Orleans, with a potential absence paving the way for Aaron Holiday […]

Cameron Payne Will Play In Game 1

Phoenix Suns guard Cameron Payne (knee) is good to go for Sunday's Game 1 contest. He missed the final two games of the regular season, but was able to practice on Wednesday. The Suns were likely being cautious and holding Payne out as a precaution. He should play his normal backup minutes off the bench, […]

We're winding down the regular season in the NBA with a tiny three-game slate on an action-packed Saturday.

Happy Friday RotoBallers! As usual, we have a jam-packed Friday night slate, filled with some juicy matchups. These articles focus on the overall best plays, which are typically more suited for cash games.

Deandre Ayton, Jae Crowder Ruled Out For Wednesday

Phoenix Suns center Deandre Ayton (ankle) and power forward Jae Crowder (ankle) will be unavailable for Wednesday's game vs. the Clippers. Ayton and Crowder join Devin Booker (back) and Chris Paul (thumb) on the sidelines for the second leg of a back-to-back. JaVale McGee and Bismack Biyombo both stand to step into larger minutes and […]

Devin Booker, Chris Paul Will Miss Wednesday’s Game

Booker and Paul join Deandre Ayton (ankle) and Jae Crowder (ankle) in sitting out the second leg of a back-to-back, as the Suns have already clinched the top seed in the Western […]

Devin Booker Drops 32 Points In Just 30 Minutes Of Action

Phoenix Suns shooting guard Devin Booker returned from a one-game rest sabbatical to pour in 32 points on 12-for-22 shooting across 30 minutes in Tuesday's win over the Lakers. There has been nothing resembling coasting to the finish line for Booker, who tied his career high with six made threes. In addition to the scoring, […]

Oh man, we were so close to another perfect night! Player props went a perfect 4-0, the Heat blew out the Hornets, and the Bucks cruised over their team total. But the last two bets missed by one point each! The Grizzlies tied the game against Utah at the buzzer and then proceeded to lose […]

Happy Tuesday, Rotoballers! After an NBA-less Monday (how about that Kansas comeback?!), we return to the pros with 12 games. Fortunately, almost every contest has something to play for, whether it be playoff qualification, seeding, or downright tanking. As DFS managers, it helps us guesstimate a more reliable starting five and what kind of rotations […]

Welcome...to the Jungle! That is the NBA betting landscape currently as we have only six days of regular-season games remaining.

They'll be joining regular starters Chris Paul and Mikal Bridges on the court. Usual starters Devin Booker (rest), Deandre Ayton (rest) and Jae Crowder (ankle) are all out […]
