DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/1/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups
Happy Tuesday and welcome to February, RotoBallers! I hope last night's slate of NBA DFS treated you well. I'm continuing to work on my NBA model, trying to gather more information to make sure all of you are as armed as possible going into each slate. Even with the small adjustments I've made so far, […]
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. It's a bit of an odd slate as three of the games (Jazz-Wolves, Nuggets-Bucks, Spurs-Suns) are miles ahead of the other two (Cavaliers-Pistons, Mavericks-Magic) […]
Devin Vassell (SG/SF, SAS): Week 16 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 34% of leagues ANALYSIS: While Devin Vassell's role in Pop's Spurs wasn't great last season, it wasn't bad either with Vass playing 62 games and 17 MPG. He's stepped up his game this season with a healthier dose of games and minutes as he's played in 42 […]
NBA DFS Prop Picks for 1/28/22 - Monkey Knife Fight
Nights where there are only two NBA games usually means the following day’s slate is going to be massive. With 11 games scheduled, MonkeyKnifeFight only has five games up so far, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t areas to attack this early. Unbelievably, even though only four teams played yesterday, two of those teams, the […]
Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (1/26/22)
I will "take my L," as the kids say these days when they happen and last night was a big 'ole "L." My picks in this piece went 0-3 yesterday and I am kicking myself for not trusting my gut on a few of those picks. Instead of taking the Lakers -2.5 (who won easily […]
Mid-Week Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers for Week 15: Eric Gordon, Bismack Biyombo, Cameron Johnson, Kevin Huerter
If you're one of those fantasy basketball players that sets a lineup at the beginning of the week, checks out, and then comes back seven days later to see how things shook out, this post is not for you. This is for those who are grinding through each day and keeping track of categories as […]
DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/25/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups
Happy Tuesday, RotoBallers! A surprisingly-big eight-game Tuesday slate follows an unusually-small Monday night for the NBA. However, with the NFL winding down (at least in the number of games), basketball can begin to spread its matchups throughout the week more evenly. So as the season moves past the halfway point, I'll be looking forward to […]
Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (1/25/22)
We skipped yesterday's slate and I'm glad as it was just about the ugliest day of NBA I have seen in a while. So it's a special Tuesday edition of my NBA Best Bets today as we have a much more palatable group of games going off tonight. It's a 9-game slate tonight and I […]
Hamidou Diallo (SG/SF, DET): Week 15 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 40% of leagues ANALYSIS: See, the Pistons might be going nowhere any time soon barring landing Ben Simmons on that "leaked" offer that would send Bey/Grant/Olynyk the other way. That doesn't mean they don't have a clear plan when it comes to the near-future: stay on […]
Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (1/21/22)
Wednesday was a disappointing 1-3 day for me. While the Nets won, the Timberwolves crumbled in the third quarter after leading up until that point against Atlanta. Then Jimmy Butler got himself ejected from the Miami game, which really hurt Miami's chances of going over their total there. Even our parlay was ruined by the […]
DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/20/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups
It's Thursday and we have hoops on our televisions! We truly are blessed. While there are only three games tipping off, two will be featured on TNT, headlined by the PHX/DAL matchup tipping off at 7:30 PM ET. Despite the lighter slate, DFS is still a thing and there are still plenty of opportunities to […]
Bryn Forbes Won't Make Team Debut On Wednesday
Denver Nuggets guard Bryn Forbes will not be making his team debut against the Los Angeles Clippers on Wednesday. Forbes was recently part of a three-team trade that sent him to Denver from the San Antonio Spurs. The trade was finalized on Wednesday, so it's just a matter of the Nuggets clearing Forbes. There should […]
Mid-Week Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers for Week 14: Eric Gordon, Patrick Beverley, LaMarcus Aldridge, Patty Mills
If you're one of those fantasy basketball players that sets a lineup at the beginning of the week, checks out, and then comes back seven days later to see how things shook out, this post is not for you. This is for those who are grinding through each day and keeping track of categories as […]
DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/17/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups
MLK Day is always one of the more momentous days on the NBA calendar each season, and today is certainly no exception. While the Association does feature a full ledger of action that tips off with a Pelicans-Celtics tilt at 12:30pm ET, we'll focus on the main slates on DK and FD. There's a one-game […]
Hamidou Diallo (SG/SF, DET): Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 46% of leagues ANALYSIS: It has taken Hamidou Diallo a bunch of years to getting playable in both the real and the fantasy game, but he's surely gotten there in the past few weeks of play, folks. Diallo, a four-year pro and former Slam Dunk Champ […]
Terrence Ross (SG/SF, ORL): Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 51% of leagues ANALYSIS: I don't think I'm alone in thinking that Terrence Ross might be one if not the best potential veteran moved ahead of the trade deadline. The thing with Ross is that he's been in Orlando for so long (this is his sixth […]
DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/16/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups
Just three games on the main slate tonight as the league loaded up the schedule for Martin Luther King Day on 1/17. The Rockets-Kings game stands out in a big way as its 240-point implied total is a full 16.5 points ahead of the Jazz-Nuggets contest and 24 points ahead of the Warriors-Timberwolves affair. The […]
Derrick White Will Play Versus Clippers
San Antonio Spurs guard Derrick White will be available for Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. He has cleared the league's health and safety protocols, so he'll be available on Saturday. Although, head coach Gregg Popovich mentioned White could come off the bench and have a minutes limit. That being said, he might not […]
DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/15/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups
We have an unusually-large slate for a Saturday as there are nine games on tap, kicking off with the Blazers-Wizards matchup at 6:00 CT. The Pelicans-Nets affair leads the slate with a 230.5-point implied total, though the Lakers-Nuggets and aforementioned Blazers-Wizards games also profile as being very favorable for fantasy production. The Knicks-Hawks, Clippers-Spurs, and […]
DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/14/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups
We have a pretty full Friday with nine games in the Association. Teams are still racked with injuries and COVID, so make sure to check out our injury news. Most of the big stars will be in lineups tonight, with the notable exceptions of Draymond, Klay Thompson, Bam, Kristaps Porzingis, and Clint Capela. That's much […]
Doug McDermott Will Return To Action For Friday’s Game
San Antonio Spurs small forward Doug McDermott has cleared the league's health and safety protocols and will suit up for Friday's contest against Cleveland. McDermott missed seven games under the protocols, with his return likely to bump Keita Bates-Diop to the second unit, thereby zapping him of DFS appeal. McDermott enjoyed solid production during December, […]
DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/12/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups
Wednesday isn't just "Hump Day," it's one of the best days for NBA DFS and we have an excellent nine-game slate on tap tonight with some really juicy games that we can target. I do my NBA DFS game value ratings every day and I posted them earlier on Twitter, where I noted that we […]
Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (1/12/22)
It's been a whole week since my last Best Bets article and I have to apologize for being away for so long! Right now I am stretched pretty thin with the NFL playoffs heating up and a lot of my other responsibilities at RotoBaller demanding my attention. But ya'll know I love the NBA and […]
Mid-Week Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers for Week 13: Hassan Whiteside, Matisse Thybulle, Furkan Korkmaz, Lonnie Walker IV
If you're one of those fantasy basketball players that sets a lineup at the beginning of the week, checks out, and then comes back seven days later to see how things shook out, this post is not for you. This is for those who are grinding through each day and keeping track of categories as […]
Fantasy Basketball Injury Updates for Week 13 - James Harden, Damian Lillard, Draymond Green, Dillon Brooks, Patrick Beverley
Hope you all enjoyed your "Klay Day" yesterday. We're starting to get some familiar names back into the fold, like Klay Thompson and Thomas Bryant. Who is worth a stash? Are any of them worth a roster spot? How many people are out with COVID? Your answers and more this week in Rotoballer's NBA Injury […]
DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/10/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups
A new week is officially upon us! Unlike season-long fantasy basketball, there is no scouring of waiver wires in hopes of securing this week's top player. Instead, we simply get to set a lineup, sit back, relax, and enjoy a seven-game slate of NBA hoops. The only thing better than NBA DFS is winning money […]
Lonnie Walker IV Available On Friday Night
San Antonio Spurs forward Lonnie Walker IV, who recently cleared COVID-19 health and safety protocols, is listed as available against Philadelphia. The 23-year-old is averaging 11.2 points, 2.8 boards, and 2.4 assists this season and could be making his return after sitting out the Spurs' previous three contests. Nonetheless, with San Antonio short-handed on Friday […]
Keldon Johnson Enters COVID-19 Protocols
San Antonio Spurs forward Keldon Johnson entered COVID-19 health and safety protocols on Thursday, joining squadmates Derrick White, Devin Vassell, and Thaddeus Young. As a result, Johnson won't play on Friday evening against the 76ers. The sophomore has had a stable 2021-22 campaign, averaging 11.1 points and 3.9 boards throughout 32 games, mostly coming in […]
Derrick White Lands On COVID-19 List
San Antonio Spurs guard Derrick White won't play on Friday in Philadelphia.

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/7/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups
Happy Friday RotoBallers! As usual, we have a jam-packed Friday night slate, filled with some juicy matchups. These articles focus on the overall best plays, which are typically more suited for cash games. However, with larger slates like this one, you don't have to worry about ownership getting steamed up too hard usually, so consider […]
