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 […]
Devin Booker Enters COVID-19 Protocols
Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker has entered the league's health and safety protocols. That means, he'll miss Wednesday's game and possibly more time if the test comes back positive. This is a tough blow to the Suns who are already without veteran guard Chris Paul (thumb) for multiple weeks. Now, the Suns will likely use […]
Aaron Holiday Will Return For Wednesday’s Contest
Phoenix Suns point/shooting guard Aaron Holiday (ankle) has been removed from the team's injury report ahead of Wednesday's game with Portland, clearing him to suit up. Holiday has averaged 7.8 points on 59.3 percent shooting overall in five games since joining the Suns, although his role off the bench could get complicated upon the return […]
Cameron Payne Likely To Return For Wednesday’s Game
Phoenix Suns point guard Cameron Payne (wrist) has been listed as probable to play in Wednesday's contest against Portland. Payne has been sidelined since Jan. 22 due to a sprained right wrist, with a return coming at a crucial time as the team is already down Chris Paul (thumb) for the foreseeable future. Payne could […]
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 Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 19: Bruce Brown, Onyeka Okongwu, Raul Neto, Corey Kispert, Grant Williams
The deeper a fantasy basketball 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 […]
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 […]
DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/28/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups
We have a solid seven-game slate on tap Monday night as the first full week of post-All-Star-break play begins. There are multiple matchups that should be very competitive, including a Timberwolves-Cavaliers clash and a Bulls-Heat showdown in Miami that would see Chicago recapture a share of the top spot in the conference with a victory. […]
Aaron Holiday Tagged As Questionable Versus Jazz
Phoenix Suns guard Aaron Holiday (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Utah Jazz. He played well in his first game after the All-Star break, but suffered an ankle injury in that contest. The Suns are shorthanded at guard with Chris Paul (thumb) and Cameron Payne (wrist) both sidelined. Elfrid Payton and […]
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 […]
Aaron Holiday Questionable Against Utah
Phoenix Suns guard Aaron Holiday (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's matinee against the Jazz. The 25-year-old is currently dealing with a sore right ankle, and he didn't play on Friday night versus the New Orleans Pelicans as a result. Holiday is expected to see more minutes until Chris Paul (thumb) and Cameron Payne (wrist) can […]
Cameron Payne Won't Play On Sunday
Phoenix Suns guard Cameron Payne (wrist) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Utah Jazz. Payne continues to sit out due to a wrist sprain, but should have an expanded role once he's healthy. Aaron Holiday (ankle) is tagged as questionable, but should see a bigger role, assuming he can play. Otherwise, Landry […]
Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (2/26/22)
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 […]
Cameron Payne, Aaron Holiday Out Friday
Phoenix Suns guards Cameron Payne (wrist) and Aaron Holiday (ankle) have been ruled out for Friday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. Payne continues to sit out with a wrist injury, but Holiday's injury is new. He played fairly well during Thursday's game and was gaining fantasy value. Now, Elfrid Payton will likely be forced […]
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.

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 […]

It's been an entire week since we've had NBA games to wager on (unless, of course, you were betting on some All-Star weekend outcomes) and I'm sure you are as excited as I am to welcome back NBA basketball to our lives tonight. We have a rather juicy seven-game slate on tap tonight and as […]

Cameron Payne Ruled Out For Thursday
Phoenix Suns guard Cameron Payne (wrist) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The backup point guard was recently listed as day-to-day, but it doesn't sound like he's ready to play yet. Payne is expected to take over as the starting point guard with Chris Paul (thumb) sidelined. Now, Aaron […]
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 […]
Cameron Payne, Landry Shamet To Return On Thursday
Phoenix Suns guards Cameron Payne (wrist) and Landry Shamet (ankle) will play in Thursday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Payne has been out since late January, but is expected to slide into the starting five with Chris Paul (thumb) out possibly two months. Fantasy managers should jump on the waiver wire and see if […]
Chris Paul Could Miss Two Months
Phoenix Suns guard Chris Paul (wrist) is expected to miss significant time due to injury. The veteran guard suffered a right thumb injury and is expected to miss 6-8 weeks of action. This is a significant blow to both the Suns and to fantasy managers as Paul is likely done for the fantasy playoffs. Cameron […]
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. Karl-Anthony Towns won the Three-Point Contest and Obi Toppin took home the title in a wholly uninspiring Slam Dunk Contest on Saturday, but tonight features the real show as […]
Chris Paul Could Miss Time
Phoenix Suns guard Chris Paul (thumb) could be in danger of missing time due to an injury he suffered on Wednesday. Paul mentioned on Saturday that he could miss time due to this issue and has a cast on his right hand. It's uncertain if Paul is going to participate in the All-Star game on […]
Cameron Payne, Landry Shamet Set To Return Next Week
Phoenix Suns point guard Cameron Payne (wrist) and shooting guard/small forward Landry Shamet (ankle) are expected to suit up for the team's second-half opener vs. Oklahoma City next Thursday. Payne has been sidelined since Jan. 22 due to a wrist injury, with his likely return coming at a key point with Chris Paul (hand) banged […]
Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers for Week 18: Oshae Brissett, Brandon Clarke, Cameron Thomas, Ayo Dosunmu, Reggie Bullock
Quick and important note: Week 18 goes from February 14th through February 27th for most people, so that's what we'll be using. The all-star break means that we'll be without games for several days. Boo, but also we can all use a little break. All leagues should be gearing up for the playoffs in a […]
DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/14/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups
After ceding the spotlight to the NBA on Super Sunday, the NBA is back at full force with an exciting nine-game slate Monday night. The Association naturally has its own milestone event coming up, as there are only four more nights of action prior to the commencement of All-Star Weekend. None of the games Monday […]
JaVale McGee (C, PHO): Week 18 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 28% of leagues ANALYSIS: See, JaVale McGee is definitely not going to be the man you remember when you think of the current iteration of the Suns in five or ten years. It makes sense, considering JVMG is playing a super low 16 MPG on the […]
DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/12/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups
Welcome, RotoBallers, to Super Bowl Eve. We have an unusually large 10-game slate on tap for tonight and just two afternoon games tomorrow as the NBA, rightfully, wants to avoid conflicting with the most-watched event of the year. It is a really tricky slate, though, as a group of top teams we'd love to target […]
