DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (12/8/22): NBA DFS Lineups

We are back up to three games for our Thursday night NBA DFS slates. Hey, it's better than the one-gamer last week, right? It's not like there aren't stars on this slate, though I would be completely shocked if Kawhi Leonard played after playing in last night's game. The same could be said for Paul […]

Romeo Langford Probable For Thursday

San Antonio Spurs guard Romeo Langford (back) is considered probable for Thursday's game against the Houston Rockets. The 23-year-old appeared to have sprained his ankle on Sunday, but is listed on the injury report with back issues. The fact Langford is tagged as probable means he should suit up for this contest. The Spurs could […]

Devin Vassell Unlikely To Suit Up Thursday

San Antonio Spurs shooting guard Devin Vassell (knee) has been deemed doubtful to play in Thursday's contest against Houston as he battles a sore left knee.

We've got an eight-game slate in our sights Monday night, which affords us what many would consider a close-to-ideal player pool for tournaments.

Doug McDermott Suffers An Ankle Injury

San Antonio Spurs forward Doug McDermott couldn't complete Wednesday's game against the Thunder after spraining his right ankle.

NBA DFS Prop Picks for 11/30/22 - Monkey Knife Fight

Monkey Knife Fight only has eight of Wednesday’s thirteen games posted, but nearly all of tonight’s highest projected point totals are available, so we at least have options.

Jeremy Sochan Won't Return On Saturday Night

San Antonio Spurs forward Jeremy Sochan (quadriceps) won't return to Saturday's game against the Lakers due to a quad contusion. The rookie was entering this one fresh off a 13-point, nine-rebound, and four-steal effort on Friday versus the Lakers in the first of back-to-back meetings.

Josh Richardson Remains Out Versus The Lakers

San Antonio Spurs guard Josh Richardson (ankle) won't play on Saturday versus the Lakers, marking his third-straight absence because of a sprained ankle. Keita Bates-Diop (ankle) is also out, so Romeo Langford, Zach Collins, and Malaki Branham should see the most work from off the bench. However, none of the three are reliable fantasy producers.

Keita Bates-Diop Out On Saturday Night

San Antonio Spurs forward Keita Bates-Diop (ankle) won't suit up on Saturday against the Lakers. The 26-year-old seemingly sprained his left ankle on Friday in the first of back-to-back meetings with Los Angeles, ending his night after only three minutes on the court. Bates-Diop has averaged only 7.4 points, although he's doubled that in his […]
