NBA DFS Prop Picks for 11/9/22 - Monkey Knife Fight

A night with no NBA feels like punishment. Monday had 13 30+ point scorers and five games come down to the last possession. It was a great send-off before the one-day break and tonight’s return to action hands us a 13-game slate. The only teams not playing tonight are the 76ers, Wizards, Warriors, and the […]

Nicolas Claxton (C, BKN) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 4

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 57% of leagues ANALYSIS: The Nets might be in the middle of a very serious discombabulation, but at least they know they can count of 1) Kevin Durant putting on nightly shows and 2) a steady big man in young Nicolas Claxton. That's correct. Claxton is, […]

DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (11/5/22): NBA DFS Lineups

We have a tidy seven-gamer on Saturday following a massive 12-game slate last night. The Spurs-Nuggets affair leads my K-Grade model and holds the highest implied total on the slate, so that will be a matchup we'll want to get exposure to. However, there's some blowout risk in that one and there are other spots […]

Devin Vassell Returns With A Career-High 29 Points

San Antonio Spurs guard/forward Devin Vassell was back on the court Friday against the Clippers and ended up having his best game of the season with a career-high 29 points. The 22-year-old was eased into action from a bench role after he missed four games with a sore left knee, so this could've easily been […]

Welcome to the fantasy basketball risers and fallers column, a weekly look at some players who are playing well and some players who aren't. What do these things mean in the larger scale of the NBA season? That's what we're trying to find out here. Who's exceeding expectations? Who's falling short of expectations? Let's take […]

It's been a solid week for bets and Wednesday night we finished […]

Mid-Week Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers for Week 3

It's a lighter week in the NBA this week, with a whole bunch of teams only playing two games this week. So maximizing your daily games has been more important than ever. There are only two games tonight and no teams play any back-to-backs this week, so we are looking for anyone who can give […]

Devin Vassell Out On Wednesday But Trending Up

San Antonio Spurs forward Devin Vassell (knee) will miss his fourth game in a row on Wednesday night, but has begun reconditioning. He should be back soon and fantasy managers should stay tuned to see when a more firm timeline will come out. For now, with Keldon Johnson also out, Doug McDermott and Josh Richardson […]

Keldon Johnson Out For Wednesday Night

San Antonio Spurs forward Keldon Johnson (calf) will not suit up for the team on Wednesday night against the Toronto Raptors. Since Devin Vassell is also listed as out for this game, there will be plenty of minutes for both Doug McDermott and Josh Richardson. Both of them have put up some good games when […]

Josh Richardson Will Play And Likely Start Wednesday

San Antonio Spurs guard Josh Richardson (back) will play Wednesday against the Toronto Raptors. Richardson missed one game with a sore back, but seems to have recovered in time for Wednesday. The Spurs are decimated right now as Devin Vassell (knee) continues to sit with knee soreness. Richardson will likely reclaim his starting spot and […]

Keldon Johnson And Jeremy Sochan Questionable Wednesday

San Antonio Spurs forwards Keldon Johnson (calf) and Jeremy Sochan (illness) are both listed as questionable to play Wednesday against the Toronto Raptors. The Spurs have caught the injury as Johnson deals with calf tightness and Sochan is dealing with flu-like symptoms. With Devin Vassell (knee) already ruled out, the Spurs will likely use a […]

Tyus Jones (PG, MEM) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 3

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 5% of leagues ANALYSIS: Tyus Jones became a fantasy darling last season backing up Ja Morant. He also became a true sought-after player in the NBA offseason before he decided to re-ink his deal with the Grizzlies to stay in Memphis as Ja's understudy. It made sense […]

Fantasy Basketball Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 3: Bol Bol, Max Strus, Jaylen Nowell

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 […]

Keldon Johnson Stuffs Stat Sheet Versus Timberwolves

San Antonio Spurs forward Keldon Johnson registered a good all-around game during a 107-98 win over the Minnesota Timberwolves. His final stat line was 25 points, six rebounds, eight assists, one steal, and one block. He even shot 8-for-15 overall while adding 5-for-10 from deep. For the fantasy managers that drafted Johnson around his ADP […]

Jeremy Sochan Out Versus Minnesota

San Antonio Spurs forward Jeremy Sochan (illness) won't play against the Timberwolves. The rookie is under the weather, currently dealing with flu-like symptoms, so he'll look to make it back for Wednesday's meeting with Toronto. Devin Vassell (knee) and Josh Richardson (back) are also out, so Keita Bates-Diop, Doug McDermott, and Zach Collins could be […]

Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 3 Include Bones Hyland, Marcus Morris, Andre Drummond, Jalen McDaniels

Welcome back to RotoBaller's weekly fantasy basketball waiver wire column and schedule breakdown. How's the start of this season treating your fantasy rosters? Do you already need some help?

DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (10/30/22): NBA DFS Lineups

It's a fine Sunday and we have a solid seven-game slate on tap in the NBA tonight. The Timberwolves-Spurs matchup has the highest implied total and rates out the best in my model, but as you can see in the 'Team Rankings,' the Suns and Warriors both rank ahead of those two squads for daily […]

Spurs Waive Joshua Primo

The Spurs waived guard Joshua Primo on Friday night. The 19-year-old was selected with the No. 12 pick of the 2021 NBA Draft and averaged 5.9 points, 2.3 rebounds, and 1.8 assists in 54 games. He also shot just 37.2% from the field and an even worse 30.2% from deep. The Spurs recently picked up […]

DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (10/28/22): NBA DFS Lineups

Happy Friday, RotoBallers! The NBA season is finally here, and we have a whopping 11 games slotted for this evening. It's a new season, with players switching teams, rookies joining the fold, and rotations mixing and matching as teams learn to gel. My model will take time to adjust to these changes, but it's my […]

The NBA is teeming with awesome games on this fabulous Friday night! Eleven NBA contests will tip off tonight and I'm back with my favorite picks for these contests. We have two rematches from Wednesday, a trend we have seen a few times already in the schedule. The Raptors will face the Sixers for the […]

Devin Vassell And Joshua Primo Ruled Out Friday

San Antonio Spurs guards Devin Vassell (knee) and Joshua Primo (glute) are listed as out Friday against the Chicago Bulls. Both Vassell and Primo will miss their second consecutive games with their respective ailments and should be considered questionable moving forward. Josh Richardson will likely see another start and is worth a look in both […]

Mid-Week Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers for Week 2

We are officially through one full week of games and already the number of injuries and players resting is mounting. That provides opportunities for lightly rostered players to provide daily value if we are willing to leave a roster spot open and stream players! Most leagues, however, limit how many player adds you can make […]

Devin Vassell Listed As Out For Wednesday

San Antonio Spurs guard/forward Devin Vassell (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's matchup against Minnesota. He was already considered doubtful for the game with left knee soreness and San Antonio has now made his absence official. The Spurs have to figure out how to continue their impressive start-of-the-season run without a player who has […]

NBA DFS Prop Picks for 10/26/22 - Monkey Knife Fight

Wednesday kicks off with Paolo Banchero and the Magic traveling to Cleveland to take on the Donovan Mitchell-led Cavaliers, two projects that have yielded positive results early. Darius Garland may be out, but Mitchell scored 31 points in his debut and has increased that output in the two games since, likely to continue that trend […]

Devin Vassell Doubtful To Play With Knee Soreness

San Antonio Spurs guard/forward Devin Vassell (knee) is listed as doubtful to play Wednesday against the Minnesota Timberwolves. This is disappointing to hear as the Spurs are on a three-game winning streak and Vassell has been on fire over that span. Knowing the Spurs tendencies to rest their players, this could end up being a […]

Devin Vassell Leads Spurs To Win With 23 Points

San Antonio Spurs guard Devin Vassell had a team-high 23 points in Monday's win over the Minnesota Timberwolves. Don't look now, but the young Spurs have won three straight games and Vassell is a big reason for that. Vassell also finished with nine rebounds, seven assists, and five threes in 33 minutes on Monday. During […]

Fantasy Basketball Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 2: Jarred Vanderbilt, Dennis Smith, Lonnie Walker

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 […]

NBA DFS Prop Picks for 10/21/22 - Monkey Knife Fight

Eleven games Friday night is a great way to head into the weekend. The only problem is, trying to find a quality bet on Monkey Knife Fight will take some digging…and maybe some slight convincing. Although this game should have been featured in the article, the Atlanta Hawks and Orlando Magic game needs to be […]

NBA DFS Prop Picks for 10/19/22 - Monkey Knife Fight

With the first game of the season, there’s going to be significantly more ‘false-potential’ tonight compared to any other. There are no trends to base recent performances off of and public opinion is likely to sway in whatever direction the wind is being blown that day. Monkey Knife Fight is going to offer every bet […]
