NBA DFS Prop Picks for 1/7 - Monkey Knife Fight

Friday is a jampacked nine-game slate and if you weren’t satisfied with last nights grouping of games, today has much more to offer. First things first, small slates usually mean there will be a limited number of teams playing two games in two days, so it’s already looking positive that every team will be arguably […]

Dejounte Murray Returns Wednesday, Will Have Minutes Cap

San Antonio Spurs point guard Dejounte Murray has been officially cleared to take the floor for Wednesday's game against Boston, but head coach Gregg Popovich revealed that Murray would face a minutes restriction that keeps him far below the 30-minute threshold. Murray has played below 30 minutes just twice all season, although his altered total figures […]

Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (1/5/21)

Monday I kept it to only two picks and a teaser and we went 1-1 as the Grizzlies took care of business but the Miami-Golden State game went over its total and the Rockets totally collapsed in the fourth quarter to lose by 20 points. We live to fight another day and there just happens […]

DraftKings and FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (1/3/22): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

We're set for a robust Monday night slate that thankfully doesn't have an inordinate amount of top-end players set to miss due to COVID-19 protocols, giving us a strong player pool to work with. With less absences than usual compared to recent weeks, we have a better opportunity to achieve true balance salary-wise while selecting […]

NBA DFS Prop Picks for 1/3 - Monkey Knife Fight

This weekend featured plenty of exciting games, but throughout all 13 games, only one player scored 50 points. Jaylen Brown was unstoppable against the Magic and even though Orlando had the opportunity to win this game outright, their defense had no answer and seemingly no adjustments within the second half of the game. Boston doesn't […]

Fantasy Basketball Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 12

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 […]

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 […]

Lonnie Walker IV Upgraded To Probable

San Antonio Spurs guard Lonnie Walker IV (knee) has been upgraded to probable for Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He has been given four days to rest and recover from his right knee contusion. It doesn't sound like the Spurs have any plans to limit Walker in this game. His return should mean less […]

NBA DFS Prop Picks for 12/31 - Monkey Knife Fight

Ten games Friday with an early start between the Suns and Celtics, featuring Devin Booker, Chris Paul, and Jaylen Brown. Jayson Tatum remains out and Brown has scored at least 25 points in his last five games so there's going to be upside as long as he's available. Following that, the Pacers host the Bulls […]

DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (12/28/21): NBA DFS Lineups

Happy Tuesday, Rotoballers! Eight games will populate our televisions, tablets, and cellphones tonight. Plenty of them will be worth a watch as the league still grapples with COVID running rampant. While it's great to see unknowns and "he's still playing?!" guys on the court now and then, it's making our DFS lives quite stressful. So […]

Derrick White Drops Team-High 21 Points In Defeat

San Antonio Spurs point/shooting guard Derrick White stepped into a larger offensive role during Monday's loss to the Jazz without Dejounte Murray in the mix and enjoyed a 21-point effort on 8-for-16 shooting overall. After spinning a season-high 10 assists in just 16 minutes in his last outing, White pitched in eight dimes this go-round, […]

Keldon Johnson Scores Team-High 27 Points In Win Sunday

San Antonio Spurs small forward Keldon Johnson scored a team-high 27 points during a 144-109 blowout win over the Detroit Pistons on Sunday. The 22-year-old was an efficient, 10-for-12 from the field, including 4-for-4 from deep, and 3-for-3 from the line. The Kentucky product also added five boards and an assist across only 23 minutes. […]

NBA DFS Prop Picks for 12/27 - Monkey Knife Fight

Monday follows up Christmas weekend with a very promising seven game slate. Nearly every team playing is generally healthy aside from the Brooklyn Nets taking on the Clippers, still missing Kevin Durant, and a game between the Mavericks and Trail Blazers without both Luka Doncic and C.J. McCollum. Dallas vs. Portland might not be a […]

Fantasy Basketball Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 11

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 and FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (12/27/21): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

The NBA continues to work through the tail end of a heavily COVID-impacted final month of the calendar year, with Monday night's seven-game slate featuring quite a few big names still sidelined due to health and safety protocols. The top end of the player pool remains particularly afflicted, with names like Kevin Durant, Luka Doncic […]

Keita Bates-Diop Starts Against Detroit

San Antonio Spurs small forward Keita Bates-Diop is replacing Dejounte Murray in the starting five on Sunday against Detroit. The 25-year-old produced a huge 30-point game against LeBron James and the Lakers just a few nights ago, and it appears that head coach Gregg Popovich is rewarding him for it. Bates-Diop had done very little […]

Dejounte Murray Enters COVID-19 Protocols

San Antonio Spurs point guard Dejounte Murray will sit out his first game of the season on Sunday against Detroit. The 25-year-old has been killing it this month, but he's unfortunately landed in the COVID-19 health and safety protocols over Christmas. Luckily for the Spurs, Murray is currently their only player in the protocols. With […]

Welcome, RotoBallers; hope everyone had a great holiday. There are seven games on the schedule for the NBA DFS slate tonight, kicking off with three games starting at 5:00 CT.

Keita Bates-Diop Pops Up With A Career-High 30 Points

San Antonio Spurs forward Keita Bates-Diop had the game of his life on Thursday against the Lakers, helping his team to a 138-110 win with a career-high 30 points on perfect 11-for-11 shooting.

DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (12/23/21): NBA DFS Lineups

Happy Thursday, Rotoballers! I had to do a double-take when I saw 11 games on the schedule for today's slate. Typically, we have three games on a Thursday, and if we are lucky, we get five. So seeing 11 (originally 12) matches on the cards was a massive change. Fortunately, we have some of the […]

Jakob Poeltl Has A Good Night Against The Clippers

San Antonio Spurs center Jakob Poeltl recorded a 17-point, 11-rebound double-double and had five assists with three steals and two blocks in Monday's road win over the Clippers. He shot 8-for-13 from the field and logged 30 minutes before fouling out. This was a very juicy line from the Austrian, and he finds himself in […]

Dejounte Murray Logs Another Triple-Double

San Antonio Spurs point guard Dejounte Murray led the team to victory against the Clippers on Monday with his third triple-double in five games. He posted a 24-12-13 line with four steals, two turnovers and 10-for-22 shooting, which included a 4-for-6 effort from downtown. Murray is now tied with MVP Nikola Jokic for the most […]

Doug McDermott Probable To Play On Monday

San Antonio Spurs forward Doug McDermott (mouth) is listed as probable for Monday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. He missed Sunday's game due to a tooth infection, but it sounds like he'll return here. Devin Vassell is expected to head back to the bench, assuming McDermott does return on Monday. There hasn't been much […]

NBA DFS Prop Picks for 12/20 - Monkey Knife Fight

Monkey Knife Fight doesn't have all of Monday night's six games up and for good reason. The pandemic hasn't let up and this month is providing enough proof to hopefully force some people to stay at home as much as possible. With new postponements coming every day, NBA Christmas is already spoiled. With the limited […]

DraftKings and FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (12/20/21): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

Although we're still reeling from a COVID-impacted last few days in the NBA, we're set for a solid six-game slate on Monday night even with the postponement of the Magic-Raptors tilt. There are still some other individual COVID absences that do reduce the player pool slightly Monday, but we still have plenty of appealing options […]
