DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/13/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups
Welcome to Super Bowl Sunday, RotoBallers. With the biggest sporting event of the year starting at 5:00 pm CT this afternoon, the NBA squeezed 10 games in yesterday along with two early-afternoon games today to avoid any overlap. The Wolves-Pacers game is the more appealing of the two from a DFS standpoint, holding the higher […]
Chuma Okeke (PF, ORL): Week 18 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 37% of leagues ANALYSIS: It's hard to properly assess Chuma Okeke--or any player, for that matter--if only because of the fact he's part of a completely broken team in the Orlando Magic's. That said, though, we have to acknowledge Okeke as a bona fide above-average player […]
Goran Dragic Discussing Buyout With Spurs
San Antonio Spurs guard Goran Dragic is reportedly working on a contract buyout with the organization. Dragic was traded from the Toronto Raptors to the Spurs at the trade deadline. The Spurs are currently rebuilding, so they have no need for Dragic on their roster. There should be plenty of suitors for Dragic, assuming he […]
Josh Richardson Not Available For Saturday's Game
San Antonio Spurs forward Josh Richardson won't be available for Saturday's game against the New Orleans Pelicans. He was traded to the Spurs at the trade deadline and has yet to make his team debut. Although, it's uncertain how significant of a role he'll have on this rebuilding roster. Devin Vassell has been playing well […]
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.

Devin Vassell Shifts Into Starting Five Friday
San Antonio Spurs shooting guard Devin Vassell has been bumped into the starting lineup for Friday's game against Atlanta, taking the place vacated by Derrick White after his trade to the Celtics.

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/11/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups
Happy Friday RotoBallers! As usual, we have a jam-packed Friday night slate, filled with some juicy matchups.

NBA DFS Prop Picks for 2/11/22 - Monkey Knife Fight
Another massive trade has blown the doors of this season wide open. Joel Embiid was already putting up career-high numbers with little support in the backcourt and there’s no saying how much adding James Harden can boost his production. Obviously, Embiid’s usage will go down in certain areas and some stats will naturally fall to […]
Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (2/11/22)
It was another 3-1 night as both props hit and our Mavericks managed to just barely get over their total behind a huge outing from Luka Doncic. The Milwaukee-Phoenix game went over as the Suns just couldn't be stopped and I hope a few people took the Suns -3 at home as the model liked […]
Post-NBA Trade Deadline Risers and Fallers
Ben Simmons has been traded! That was among the many, many things that went down on Thursday during the NBA trade deadline.

Thaddeus Young Lands With Raptors At Trade Deadline

Josh Richardson Heading To San Antonio
Boston Celtics forward Josh Richardson has been traded to the San Antonio Spurs. They will also receive guard Romeo Langford and a first-round draft pick in exchange for guard Derrick White. Clearly, the Spurs decided that Dejounte Murray and White weren't the best long term solution. San Antonio has a bunch of young guards such […]
Derrick White Acquired By Celtics
San Antonio Spurs guard Derrick White has been traded to the Boston Celtics. In exchange, the Spurs will receive forward Josh Richardson, guard Romeo Langford, and a first-round pick. It remains to be seen whether the Celtics will start Marcus Smart or White. Regardless, they have a fantastic option for sixth man and made their […]
Goran Dragic Traded To Spurs
Toronto Raptors guard Goran Dragic has been traded to the San Antonio Spurs. In exchange, the Raptors will receive forwards Thaddeus Young and Drew Eubanks. Toronto also gains a 2022 second-round pick from this deal. The Spurs received a 2022 first round pick from Toronto and are expected to buyout Dragic. It's uncertain where Dragic […]
Lonnie Walker IV Set To Return On Wednesday
San Antonio Spurs shooting guard Lonnie Walker IV (knee) will be available for Wednesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers.

We're getting down to the wire here and you NEED to eke out wins here if your team is on the cusp of a playoff berth. There's no wiggle room as we're probably 2-3 weeks out from your league's playoffs in most competitive leagues. If your league isn't starting playoffs around this time, you're doing […]
Fantasy Basketball Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 17: Isaac Okoro, Jaxson Hayes, Doug McDermott, Josh Richardson, Austin Rivers
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 […]
DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/5/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups
We have a typically-small five-game Saturday slate on tap tonight, and it's not going to be the easiest night to dissect as value appears to be slim outside of OKC. The top two games to target look to be the Bucks-Blazers and Heat-Hornets as those matchups hold high totals and weak defense on the Blazers […]
Doug McDermott Removed From Injury Report
San Antonio Spurs forward Doug McDermott (ankle) is not listed on the injury report for Friday's game against the Houston Rockets. He has been dealing with a right ankle sprain, but is expected to play on Friday. His return should move Devin Vassell back to the second unit. Both players have been decent scoring options […]

Lonnie Walker IV Will Miss Friday’s Game
San Antonio Spurs shooting guard/small forward Lonnie Walker IV (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's contest against the Rockets due to a sore right knee. The decision to hold Walker out comes after he logged 27 minutes off the bench Thursday, shooting 2-for-10 from the floor overall. Without Walker as a member of the […]
Zach Collins Set To Make Season Debut Friday
San Antonio Spurs center Zach Collins (ankle) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Friday's game vs. the Rockets, paving the way for the 24-year-old to make his season -- and team -- debut. Collins, who last appeared in game action on Aug. 13, 2020, has been hampered by ankle injuries. He should […]
Dejounte Murray, Jakob Poeltl Will Return To Action Friday
San Antonio Spurs point guard Dejounte Murray (wrist) and center Jakob Poeltl (concussion) have been removed from the injury report ahead of Friday's contest vs. Houston.

Dejounte Murray Ruled Out For Thursday
San Antonio Spurs guard Dejounte Murray (wrist) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Miami Heat. He was previously tagged as questionable due to a left wrist sprain, but the Spurs will play it safe here. Derrick White should see a spike in usage with Murray off the court. That means, White is […]

With the NFL off for a whole week before the Super Bowl, the NBA has center stage in the sports world. We have a solid 7-game slate for a Thursday and some really compelling games to attack tonight. Having only four teams taking the court is certainly better than nothing, but it does affect strategy. […]
Jakob Poeltl, Jock Landale Enter Concussion Protocols
San Antonio Spurs centers Jakob Poeltl (concussion) and Jock Landale (concussion) have both been ruled out for Thursday's game vs. Miami after the duo entered the league's concussion protocols Wednesday.

Dejounte Murray, Doug McDermott Questionable For Thursday
San Antonio Spurs point guard Dejounte Murray (wrist) and small forward Doug McDermott (ankle) have picked up questionable designations ahead of Thursday's contest vs. the Heat. Murray was able to play through the ailment to log 27 points, nine rebounds, and nine assists across 38 minutes Tuesday, a positive sign for his potential availability. McDermott, […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/30/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups
Just a five-game slate on tap tonight as there are three matinee contests in the NBA as well as the almighty NFL Championship Round games kicking off at 2:00 pm CT.
