It's almost time! After three months with no basketball, the 2021-2022 NBA season is set to tip-off in late October.

NBA Rookies With The Best Landing Spots
There’s nothing worse than getting uber-excited about a newly-drafted rookie only to see him riding the bench behind some washed-up veteran, right? Well….some of the rookies below might find themselves dealing with a little of that early on in their careers, but be patient! The seven players below all landed in ideal spots for their […]
Spurs Open To Trading Thaddeus Young
San Antonio Spurs forward Thaddeus Young is reportedly drawing interest from a few contenders. The Spurs are rebuilding and have no real need for a veteran player like Young. He could certainly be an asset to multiple contenders as a bench option. However, it's unlikely he holds fantasy value in most formats wherever he lands. […]

Keita Bates-Diop Remaining In San Antonio
San Antonio Spurs forward Keita Bates-Diop has agreed to a new two-year deal. The terms of the contract were undisclosed, but it was apparently enough to retain his services after the franchise extended a qualifying offer to him back in July. The 25-year-old former Ohio State Buckeye appeared in only 30 professional contests last season, […]
Zach Collins Contract Not Fully Guaranteed
San Antonio Spurs center Zach Collins recently signed a three-year, $22 million deal with the club. However, due to Collins' injury history, only a portion of the contract ($10.675 million) is guaranteed. The 23-year-old played sparingly throughout his four seasons in Portland because of a nagging foot issue, so there is plenty of risk associated […]
Fantasy Basketball Second Round Rookie Sleepers
It's funny that every year at the NBA Draft, once the end of the guaranteed money and live appearances arrives at the end of the first round, everybody tunes out and refers to the 60th pick as "Mr.Irrelevant". That's not very accurate though, is it? Speaking historically, the title of "Mr.Irrelevant" could just as easily […]

2021 NBA Mock Draft
The 2021 NBA Draft is drawing near! Mock drafts are fun because they allow for a world of possibilities. We can fantasize about player and team fits and either get proven right or wrong each year on how things end up. More often than not, it does not matter because we did not have a […]
DeMar DeRozan Rumored To Land In L.A.
San Antonio Spurs guard DeMar DeRozan, who is entering free agency this offseason, could be on his way to Los Angeles. Assuming Kawhi Leonard (knee) remains with the organization, DeRozan can help lessen the load of the hobbled superstar, primarily on the offensive end.
