Early-Week Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers for Week 8

This week, we have probably the best schedule that we've seen so far this year! Games are spread out nicely with only Wednesday and Friday being loaded up with 11 and 10 games, respectively, and we get three games on Tuesday and Thursday so there are no totally dead days either. And the weekend games […]

Mike Conley Remains Sidelined For Saturday

Utah Jazz guard Mike Conley (knee) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. This comes as no surprise considering Conley hasn't played since November 19th due to a left popliteus strain. The rebuilding Jazz really have no reason to rush the veteran guard back onto the court. In the meantime, […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 32% of leagues ANALYSIS: Danny Ainge fooled everybody this summer. Yes, he traded Rudy Gobert away from a good bunch of youngsters and draft picks.

Give me all of those shares! With the Utah Jazz still keeping their record […]

Mike Conley Will Miss Another One On Saturday

Utah Jazz guard Mike Conley (left popliteus strain) will miss his fourth straight game on Saturday against Phoenix. As a result, Collin Sexton should continue to fill the void in the lineup. The former Cavalier has averaged 14.8 points and 6.0 assists in four starts this season. While Sexton's shooting percentages need to improve, he's […]

DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (11/26/22): NBA DFS Lineups

We have a tiny three-game slate on tap in the NBA tonight after 28 teams were in action yesterday.

Utah Jazz guard Malik Beasley had himself a night on Wednesday during the team's loss to the Detroit Pistons.

Currently, Sacramento are the NBA’s hottest team and despite playing a tough game versus Memphis yesterday, […]

Malik Beasley Has Another Strong Showing

Utah Jazz guard/forward Malik Beasley has come to life lately and was able to lead all scorers with 29 points in Saturday's 118-113 win over Portland. He shot 10-for-18 from the field and 6-for-14 from downtown, doing all the damage in just 27 minutes off the bench. Jordan Clarkson led the starters with 28 points […]

Al Horford (C, BOS) - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 6

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 44% of leagues ANALYSIS: Will Big Al ever run out of energy? I doubt it if you ask me. Horford, playing in his age-36 season and 16th as a pro and keeps starting games nightly going 13-for-13 this season after starting all of those in which […]

Mike Conley Injures Knee on Saturday

Utah Jazz guard Mike Conley (knee) won't return to Saturday's matchup against the Utah Jazz after hyperextending his left knee. The 35-year-old has averaged 10.9 points and 8.2 assists this season, so he's at least offered something to fantasy managers. However, it's certainly possible Conley misses time moving ahead, which would open the door for […]
