Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers for Week 10: Chuma Okeke, Nerlens Noel, Robin Lopez, Kemba Walker
I'll be dead honest with you guys: I don't have any f*#$ing clue who half of these players are on any given NBA roster that isn't named the Chicago Bulls. And if I don't know half the guys, you probably don't know half the guys either. Yet, we trudge on, just like the league, and […]
Dejounte Murray Delivers A 25-7-9 Line On Sunday
San Antonio Spurs point guard Dejounte Murray had a nice 25-point showing in Sunday's loss to Sacramento with seven rebounds and nine assists. He shot 11-for-17 from the floor and 3-for-4 at the charity stripe, finishing things off with one steal and two turnovers in 35 minutes. Murray has become the go-to guy in San […]
Doug McDermott Out With A Tooth Infection
San Antonio Spurs forward Doug McDermott won't be able to help his side on Sunday against Sacramento, sitting out the game with a tooth infection. McDermott's season hasn't gone too well, but he's one of the best shooters on the squad and San Antonio will definitely be less of a threat from downtown without him. […]
DraftKings, FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (12/19/21): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice
You know the NBA is in an odd state of affairs when players like Chimezie Metu, Maxi Kleber, and Kessler Edwards are projected to be among the higher-rostered players on the slate.

Dejounte Murray Puts Up Triple-Double In Win Friday
San Antonio Spurs guard Dejounte Murray logged his fifth triple-double of the season on Friday, pouring in 16 points, 11 rebounds, and 11 assists during a 128-126 victory over the Utah Jazz.

Lonnie Walker IV Will Suit Up For Friday’s Game
San Antonio Spurs shooting guard/small forward Lonnie Walker IV (illness) has been cleared to play in Friday's contest against the Jazz. Walker's absence lasted just one game, with his return giving the Spurs a key piece of their second unit back.

DraftKings, FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (12/17/21): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice
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 Questionable For Friday
San Antonio Spurs guard Lonnie Walker IV (illness) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Utah Jazz. He sat out of Wednesday's game due to the same reason, which resulted in Devin Vassell getting additional playing time. Keita Bates-Diop was also involved more, but Vassell is the better fantasy option between the two. […]
Keldon Johnson Notches 21 Points Against Charlotte
San Antonio Spurs small forward Keldon Johnson had his best offensive performance in a month on Wednesday, notching 21 points on 9-for-16 shooting in a losing effort against the Hornets.

Lonnie Walker IV Ruled Out Versus Hornets
San Antonio Spurs guard Lonnie Walker IV (illness) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. It seems like there is a bug going around and hopefully this won't sideline Walker for too long. In the meantime, Devin Vassell could end up benefiting the most in the absence of Walker. He could […]

DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (12/12/21): NBA DFS Lineups
DraftKings and FanDuel are giving us two short slates on the weekend as there are just five games on Sunday's main slate after a six-gamer on Saturday.

San Antonio Spurs forward Devin Vassell (quad) is hopeful to play during Thursday's game against the Denver Nuggets. This is great news after Vassell was previously listed as doubtful for this contest.

Keldon Johnson Ruled Out For Thursday
San Antonio Spurs guard Keldon Johnson (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Denver Nuggets. This is not surprising given the fact Johnson was listed as doubtful heading into this contest. Fantasy managers should consider Johnson day-to-day while he deals with this ankle issue.
