It's trade o'clock fellow NBA fantasy nuts! And as you are used to by now, we have for you a surging player you would do well to sell while he is hot, and on the other end of the spectrum, a slumping guy who's value is currently a lot lower than should be. These fluctuations […]

Rudy Gay Is In Starting Lineup In First Game Back From Injury
San Antonio Spurs small forward/power forward Rudy Gay (wrist) will start on Wednesday against the Mavs. The injury sidelined the 13th-year pro for five games.

NBA Weekly Streamers for Week 14 (Jan 14 - Jan 20)
With less than two months left until most fantasy playoffs, the playoff race is heating up in many leagues. If you are in the midst of this race there is less incentive to keep out of form or injured, border-line players. I know, I like Jonas Valanciunas too. But I just had to let him […]
Derrick White Continues Hot Stretch With 18-Point Effort
San Antonio Spurs point/shooting guard Derrick White continued to find his groove within the team’s offense during Monday’s loss to the Charlotte Hornets. White finished with 18 points on 7-for-12 shooting, adding four rebounds and a team-high seven assists. Make that nine of the last 10 games in which White has finished in double figures, […]
LaMarcus Aldridge Delivers Double-Double During Defeat
San Antonio Spurs power forward/center LaMarcus Aldridge snapped his stretch without a double-double during Monday’s loss to the Charlotte Hornets, finishing with 28 points and 10 rebounds.

Marco Belinelli Won't Play on Monday
San Antonio Spurs guard/forward Marco Belinelli (knee) won't play in Monday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Belinelli is considered day-to-day with a left knee contusion. Derrick White and Bryn Forbes will play heavy minutes on Monday and could be solid DFS options. Patty Mills should also see increased playing time off the bench.
Rudy Gay Won't Play on Monday
San Antonio Spurs forward Rudy Gay (wrist) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. Gay is dealing with a sprained left wrist and believes that he can return soon. Davis Bertans, Pau Gasol, and Jakob Poeltl will all benefit without Gay available. Gay is worth holding onto if you have an […]

San Antonio Spurs shooting guard Marco Belinelli caught fire from the field during Saturday’s defeat against the Oklahoma City Thunder, finishing 8-for-10 overall, including 4-for-6 from three-point range.

Pau Gasol Earns Another Start
San Antonio Spurs center Pau Gasol started Saturday's game against the Pelicans. It is the 38-year-old's second straight start despite the fact that no Spurs are resting. Gasol only played 16 minutes in Thursday's start where he registered three rebounds as well as three assists.
Will Barton Is Returning Soon And The League Isn't Ready
This intro will be spent talking about Will Barton's season-long projection and how it will impact the rest of the Nuggets. If you own you him, definitely throw out some trade offers to see what the return on him is looking like. If anyone is dangling an injured Robert Covington, Tobias Harris, Klay Thompson, or […]
Rudy Gay Has No Timetable to Return
San Antonio Spurs forward Rudy Gay (wrist) has no timetable to return and is out indefinitely. Gay has missed three straight games and four of the last six due to a sprained left wrist.

DeMar DeRozan Held In Check During Defeat
San Antonio Spurs shooting guard DeMar DeRozan finished 4-for-15 from the field during Wednesday’s loss to the Memphis Grizzlies, finishing in single digits for only the second time this season. His nine points, five rebounds and four assists were by all means a clunker, but much of that can be attested to the defensive excellence […]
Pau Gasol Ties Season-High With 12 Rebounds
San Antonio Spurs center Pau Gasol was all over the boards during Wednesday’s loss to the Memphis Grizzlies, tying his season high with 12 rebounds to go along with seven points in 20 minutes of action off the bench.
