DraftKings And FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (4/5/23): NBA DFS Lineups

We're getting down to the final days of the regular season, but there are still postseason spots and positioning to be decided. Wednesday's eight-game slate should serve to clarify matters further, but thankfully for DFS purposes, there are still plenty of teams with something left to play for. That much is reflected in Wednesday's point […]

Collin Sexton Available To Return On Tuesday

Utah Jazz guard Collin Sexton (hamstring) has been made available on Tuesday for the first time since Feb. 15. The young combo guard has missed a little more than a month due to a bad hamstring and seems like he can finally come back to play the final few games remaining this season. He would […]

Lauri Markkanen Downgraded To Out Again On Tuesday

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (hand) has been downgraded yet again to out on Tuesday, so he will miss the contest against the Los Angeles Lakers. The 25-year-old has been in and out of the lineup a lot over the last few weeks as the Jazz are a game and a half out of the […]

Lauri Markkanen Questionable Tuesday

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (hand) might be unavailable for the team again Tuesday versus the Lakers, with the Finnish star carrying a questionable tag. Markkanen has played in just three of the team's last eight games and the Jazz don't really have to push him through injuries, as the hopes of extending the season […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (4/4/23): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups

Welcome back, RotoBallers! The NBA takes center stage again now that March Madness is over (Congrats to UConn!). Tonight we've got a massive thirteen-game slate, headlined by the TNT doubleheader. These articles focus on the overall best plays, which are typically more suited for cash games. However, some exceptions may apply, depending on the size […]

Walker Kessler Placed In Concussion Protocol

Utah Jazz center Walker Kessler (concussion) was forced to exit early during Sunday's game after taking a shot to the head from a teammate. The rookie big man has now entered concussion protocol. That being said, Kessler could very well miss the rest of the regular season. If that's true, the Jazz would likely use […]

Walker Kessler Leaves Game Sunday

Utah Jazz center Walker Kessler (head) left Sunday's game versus the Brooklyn Nets and did not return. Kessler took a hit to the head and was visibly shaken, displaying symptoms of a concussion, and immediately went to the locker room before being ruled out. Kessler played just 21 minutes, recording six points and eight rebounds […]

Lauri Markkanen Available Against Brooklyn

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (hand) will return from a two-game absence on Sunday in Brooklyn. As a result, Simone Fontecchio will head back to the bench and lose most of his DFS appeal. At the same time, Kelly Olynyk and Talen Horton-Tucker may see a dip in production with Markkanen back in the mix.

Lauri Markkanen Could Miss Sunday's Game

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (hand) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Brooklyn Nets. The 25-year-old has missed four of the last five games due to a left hand contusion. The Jazz are within a game of the 10th seed, so Utah does technically have something to play for right now. However, […]

Talen Horton-Tucker Has Another Productive Outing

Utah Jazz guard/forward Talen Horton-Tucker led the team with 28 points and had eight rebounds and seven assists in Friday's 122-114 loss to Boston. His shooting was slightly off, as Horton-Tucker finished 9-for-21 from the field, but he was very active in getting to the free-throw line and it eventually helped him to post his […]

Kelly Olynyk Is Available Against Boston On Friday

Utah Jazz center Kelly Olynyk is now available to play on Friday against the Boston Celtics after just a one-game absence due to a non-COVID illness. As he takes over his starting spot again, the odd man out would seem to be Juan Toscano-Anderson. Especially with Lauri Markkanen (hand) still sidelined, Olynyk should be a […]

DraftKings And FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/31/23): NBA DFS Lineups

Happy Friday, RotoBallers! The NBA season is dwindling down, which can make some things unpredictable this time of the year. We've seen the Portland Trail Blazers shut down Damian Lillard, which has opened up opportunities for others. Another team that doesn't mind giving rest days is the Indiana Pacers. There are other examples but it's […]

Lauri Markkanen Won't Play On Friday

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (hand) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Boston Celtics. Markkanen will miss his second game in a row due to a left hand contusion. His absence should mean that Simone Fontecchio moves into the starting five. However, Luka Samanic played more minutes than Fontecchio during their last […]

Talen Horton-Tucker Goes Off Against San Antonio

Utah Jazz guard Talen Horton-Tucker posted one of the best games of his career on Wednesday as the team took down the San Antonio Spurs by a score of 128-117. The 22-year-old posted a career-high 41 points to go along with four rebounds, five assists, and one steal while shooting 15-for-25 overall and 6-for-11 from […]

Lauri Markkanen Ruled Out Again With Hand Issue

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (hand) has been downgraded from questionable to out on Wednesday due to some soreness stemming from his hand contusion. He was able to play in their last matchup, but his shooting percentages suffered. To combat the uncomfortable soreness, he'll get the night off which means Simone Fontecchio will see some […]

DraftKings And FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/29/23): NBA DFS Lineups

We have a typically expansive 10-game slate on tap Wednesday night, one that's once again replete with postseason stakes. As of early Wednesday, there are four double-digit favorites, which isn't exactly ideal for DFS purposes. However, there are also six games with lines of six points or fewer, which gives us a solid 12-team pool […]

Lauri Markkanen Questionable Against Spurs

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (hand) is questionable to play Wednesday against the San Antonio Spurs. Markkanen has been in and out of the lineup the past week with a hand contusion, but was able to play 36 minutes on Monday, scoring 25 points. If Markkanen is unable to go, Simone Fontecchio would likely be […]

DraftKings And FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/27/23): NBA DFS Lineups

We're primed for a big eight-game late-season slate Monday night that features six contests with projected totals of more than 228 points. There are a couple of especially large favorites in the Bucks and the    but the majority of games sport spreads of 6.5 points or less. There are also plenty of appealing individual […]

Lauri Markkanen Questionable For Monday

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (hand) is questionable ahead of Monday's matchup against the Suns. If he doesn't suit up, it will be his third consecutive absence because of a hand contusion. If that happens, Simone Fontecchio should continue to start. The 27-year-old has averaged 12.3 points in four starts this season, so he has […]

Walker Kessler Has A Big Night Against Sacramento

Utah Jazz center Walker Kessler netted a career-high 31 points and recorded 11 rebounds in Saturday's 121-113 loss to the Kings. He was incredibly efficient with 14-for-16 shooting and completed his work with two assists, one steal and one rebound. The Rudy Gobert era has become a distant memory for Jazz fans, with the Auburn […]

DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/26/23): NBA DFS Lineups

This should be an exciting slate, to say the very least. We have two matchups (Spurs-Celtics, Rockets-Cavaliers) with spreads of at least 14.5 points. At the same time, a group of the 14 teams in action tonight are either blatantly tanking or blatantly resting players in preparation for the playoffs. This is the time of […]

Collin Sexton Remains Out Versus Sacramento

Utah Jazz guard Collin Sexton (hamstring) remains out ahead of Saturday's clash with Sacramento. The 24-year-old has missed over a month because of a hamstring strain. While he is apparently trending in the right direction regarding his rehab efforts, he's still not ready to return. Of course, with Utah on the verge of not making […]

Lauri Markkanen To Miss Another Game On Saturday

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen (hand) won't play on Saturday against Sacramento. Markkanen has a hand contusion, an injury that also held him out of Friday's loss to the Milwaukee Bucks. Considering Utah is a long shot at making the postseason, the team will likely remain cautious with the big man for the remainder of […]

DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/25/23): NBA DFS Lineups

As expected on a Saturday, we have a meager five-game slate on tap in the NBA. The Jazz-Kings and Bucks-Nuggets matchups hold the highest implied total and profile as the top games to target for our DFS lineups, but it being a smaller slate means we'll need to consider all ten squads. Half of the […]

Lauri Markkanen Collects His Third 40-Point Game

Utah Jazz forward Lauri Markkanen returned after a rest day and decided to score almost half of the team's total points on Wednesday as they suffered a 12-point loss to the Portland Trail Blazers.
