FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (1/31/19): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice
The first two games of the night are the complete opposite of the rest of the slate, so note the point totals of those two games before making your lineup. The last four games of the night have a ton of upside and tonight should be all about Steph Curry. He's not cheap, but take […]
DeMar DeRozan is Probable on Thursday
San Antonio Spurs guard/forward DeMar DeRozan (knee) is listed as probable for Thursday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. He's missed the last three games, but it appears he's ready to suit up for this contest. Patty Mills, Marco Belinelli, and Davis Bertans should lose some value with DeRozan returning. Fantasy owners can go ahead and […]

Davis Bertans Looks Solid Once More
San Antonio Spurs forward Davis Bertans logged his second consecutive strong game on Tuesday, finishing a 126-124 win over the Suns with 18 points, five assists, and a career-high four steals.

FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (1/29/19): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice
Happy Tuesday!!! Today is the 16th Tuesday since the start of what has been another glorious NBA season. However, New Orleans Pelicansf fans are probably not overjoyed to hear that star center Anthony Davis has officially asked out of "The Big Easy". Nevertheless, the games must go on and there are eight games on the docket. Speaking of Davis […]
Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 16
It's about to enter the last stretch of the season where owners should be looking at every realm of possibility to improve their team's chances of locking in a playoff berth. We are just a little over a month before we head into the fantasy playoffs in most formats. It's time to drop the dead […]
DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/27/19): NBA DFS Lineups
In tonight's six-game slate, there is one game that is going to be the annoyance of the night, Magic versus Rockets. Everyone is contemplating James Harden. Even at a ridiculous, sky-scraping $13,700, you can't simply just say, "Oh, Chris Paul is back? Yeah, he's going to fall back down to Earth." That's a lazy assessment […]
Bryn Forbes Plays Respectably
San Antonio Spurs shooting guard Bryn Forbes had a decent game versus the New Orleans Pelicans on Saturday. Forbes scored 11 points going 4-of-11 from the floor with three assists and two boards. The month of January has been slightly lackluster for Forbes who is averaging just 11.8 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 1.7 assists. The […]
Rudy Gay Continues Desirable Play
San Antonio Spurs small forward Rudy Gay had another respectable performance Saturday against the New Orleans Pelicans. Gay scored 22 points on six for thirteen shooting from the floor and eight for eight from the charity stripe. Also in the outing, Gay had 11 boards and three assists. Since the start of January Gay has […]
LaMarcus Aldridge Doubles Down On The Pelicans
San Antonio Spurs center LaMarcus Aldridge had a satisfying game versus the New Orleans Pelicans on Saturday. Aldridge scored 28 points going 12-of-20 from the floor with 12 boards. Since the start of January Aldridge has been playing well averaging 23.7 points and 7.4 rebounds. Well, the rebounding average for Aldridge isn't ideal his scoring […]
FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (1/26/19): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice
Saturday's NBA lineup features five games of NBA action, but they're some good ones! We get a Celtics/Warriors battle that would have been a Finals preview before Kawhi joined the Raptors, a 76ers/Nuggets game that...is actually not going to be great since Joel Embiid and Jimmy Butler are out (or probably out, in Butler's case, […]
Buy, Sell, or Hold: Beat the Trade Deadline
Usually, in this column, we take a look at a player who is in great form but is unlikely to sustain it and suggest you sell the s*** out of him before he sees a drop-off, and we find a guy who is playing poorly, but will turn it around, and point him out so […]
Bombs Away For Marco Belinelli, Bryn Forbes And Patty Mills
San Antonio Spurs shooting guard Marco Belinelli went for 16 points in 23 minutes off the bench in Wednesday's 122-120 loss against the Philadelphia 76ers, including four three-pointers.

DeMar DeRozan Dumps In 26 Points In Road Loss
San Antonio Spurs shooting guard DeMar DeRozan registered 26 points with nine rebounds, three assists, two steals and a blocked shot over 37 minutes in Wednesday's 122-120 loss against the Philadelphia 76ers. He was a solid 12-for-19 from the field and 2-for-3 from three-throw strike while turning it over six times. D-Ro bounced back nicely […]
Davis Bertans Won't Play on Wednesday
San Antonio Spurs forward Davis Bertans (personal) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers. It's unclear how long Bertans will be out due to these personal reasons. Dante Cunningham should benefit the most from the loss of Bertans, but probably not enough worth using in fantasy formats.

How Sustainable Is This Version Of Bradley Beal?
This biggest trend in the NBA recently has been Bradley Beal and his emergence as a clear-cut All-Star, doing everything he can to get his team in the playoffs. In the fantasy realm, Beal has nearly doubled his value and it's increasing every game. The offensive burden will always be on his shoulders and he […]

DeMar DeRozan To Give It A Go On Sunday
San Antonio Spurs shooting guard/small forward DeMar DeRozan (ankle) will play versus the Clippers on Sunday despite dealing with left ankle soreness. DeRozan missed Friday's win over the Timberwolves, but he had previously said that he would undoubtedly be able to play tonight.

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/19/19): NBA DFS Lineups
To be completely honest, we have a fairly lame 8-game slate. Only two games are really projected to be high-scoring affairs, while most of the games are out-of-conference contests between a "good team" and a "bad team." I have confidence, the Bulls-Heat, Hawks-Celtics, and Pacers-Mavericks will all be worth of stacking and should dominate the […]
Rudy Gay Tallies 20 Points For First Time In A Month
San Antonio Spurs small forward/power forward Rudy Gay scored 14 of his 22 points in the second half as the Spurs outlasted the Timberwolves 116-113 on Friday.
