Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (2/4/22)

Happy Friday, RotoBallers! Friday nights usually bring excellent NBA slates and tonight is no exception as we have nine games tonight including a late-night national TV game with the Sixers facing the Mavericks in Dallas on ESPN. Wednesday was a frustrating night for me. Denver ended up sitting most of their regulars and I had […]

Udoka Azubuike Starting On Wednesday

Utah Jazz center Udoka Azubuike will move into the starting five for Wednesday's game against the Denver Nuggets. Rudy Gobert (calf) and Hassan Whiteside (back) will both be sidelined for this contest. Luckily for Azubuike, reigning MVP Nikola Jokic (toe) is sitting out on Wednesday. That being said, Azubuike has a chance to actually make […]

Jordan Clarkson Ruled Out For Wednesday

Utah Jazz guard Jordan Clarkson (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Denver Nuggets. The Jazz are without a number of their key players for this matchup. That being said, Mike Conley should run the offense with Jared Butler and Trent Forest (ankle) having increased roles. Conley is already looking like an […]

Happy Wednesday and welcome to February, RotoBallers! I hope last night's slate of NBA DFS treated you well. I'm continuing to work on my NBA model, trying to gather more information to make sure all of you are as armed as possible going into each slate. Even with the small adjustments I've made so far, […]

Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (2/2/22)

Monday's slate got funky real fast and I had to void two of my three picks as I had zero confidence in the Cavs covering once they announced Darius Garland was going to be out and they barely eked out a win. Then Miami also ruled out Jimmy Butler so I lost them as live […]

Hassan Whiteside Questionable For Wednesday

Utah Jazz center Hassan Whiteside (back) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He's a new addition to the injury report, which is not good news with Rudy Gobert (calf) already ruled out. Whiteside has been playing well in Gobert's absence and is a decent fantasy option, assuming he plays. Otherwise, […]

Mid-Week Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers for Week 16: Hassan Whiteside, Luke Kennard, Bismack Biyombo, Chuma Okeke

If you're one of those fantasy basketball players that sets a lineup at the beginning of the week, checks out, and then comes back seven days later to see how things shook out, this post is not for you. This is for those who are grinding through each day and keeping track of categories as […]

Donovan Mitchell, Rudy Gobert Miss Tuesday's Practice

Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell (concussion) and center Rudy Gobert (calf) were both unable to practice on Tuesday. Mitchell has missed each of the last seven games and doesn't have a return in sight. Joe Ingles (knee) was starting in his place, but suffered a torn ACL, so his season is over. Jared Butler could […]

Fantasy Basketball Injury Updates for Week 16 - LaMarcus Aldridge, Kristaps Porzingis, Domantas Sabonis, Joe Ingles, LeBron James, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Bradley Beal

Getting to this a little later on Monday, so this should be mostly up to date as of Tuesday morning when this publishes. Only three or four weeks left in most fantasy basketball leagues that are serious, so let's use this info while we have it to figure out who we can stream or who […]

Joe Ingles Will Miss The Rest Of The Season

Utah Jazz forward Joe Ingles (knee) will not play again this season after suffering a significant injury. The veteran forward suffered a torn ACL, but no other structural damage in his left knee. He is expected to undergo surgery soon and will miss the rest of the 2021 season. His recovery is expected to roll […]

Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 16 - Bismack Biyombo, Luke Kennard, Otto Porter Jr., Davion Mitchell

Welcome back to the waiver wire! Need to bolster your flailing team? We've got you covered. Maybe. We'll see. These recommendations are mainly for 9-cat leagues, but if you play in another format, there's a good chance that the information here can still help you. We'll be looking at centers, forwards, and guards whose low rostership […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/30/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups

Just a five-game slate on tap tonight as there are three matinee contests in the NBA as well as the almighty NFL Championship Round games kicking off at 2:00 pm CT. It's a bit of an odd slate as three of the games (Jazz-Wolves, Nuggets-Bucks, Spurs-Suns) are miles ahead of the other two (Cavaliers-Pistons, Mavericks-Magic) […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/29/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups

We have a modest six-game slate in the NBA tonight, and it's certainly not lacking for star power. Embiid, Doncic, Harden, Curry, Morant, Tatum, Sabonis, and Irving are the highlights at the top of the salary scale, so we're going to have our pick of the litter among the studs. Three of the six matchups […]

Rudy Gobert Ruled Out Versus Grizzlies

Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert (calf) has been ruled out for Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He suffered a left calf strain on Sunday and now will miss his third straight game because of it. His absence will mean Hassan Whiteside will get another start with Udoka Azubuike getting backup minutes. Whiteside has struggled […]

Donovan Mitchell Questionable For Friday

Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell (concussion) is listed as questionable for Friday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. He has missed each of the last five games due to a concussion. Mitchell didn't travel with the team for Friday's contest, so the chances of him suiting up seem unlikely. Joe Ingles would shift back to the […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/26/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups

Happy Wednesday, RotoBallers! I hope this week of NBA DFS has treated you well. I've just about completely finished my NBA Model and updated for this season's factors, and it's safe to say things have been going extremely well. After starting hot, I started to cool down and figured changes needed to be made. I […]

NBA DFS Prop Picks for 1/26/22 - Monkey Knife Fight

Wednesday’s 10-game slate is anchored by six inter-conference matchups, with eight teams playing on the second night of a back-to-back. Generally, it’s much easier to simply avoid teams that are playing multiple games over the span of just a few days, but ignoring context like that will likely only hurt your betting and ultimately your […]

Bojan Bogdanovic Removed From Injury Report

Utah Jazz forward Bojan Bogdanovic (finger) has been removed from the injury report ahead of Wednesday's game against the Phoenix Suns. He was held out of Monday's game as a precaution, but it sounds like he'll return on Wednesday. Bogdanovic has been fitted for a splint, but it's on his non-shooting hand. Donovan Mitchell (concussion) […]

Donovan Mitchell, Rudy Gobert Will Miss Wednesday’s Game

Utah Jazz point/shooting guard Donovan Mitchell (concussion) and center Rudy Gobert (calf) have been ruled out for Wednesday's contest vs. the Suns. Neither player was available in Monday's loss, with Jordan Clarkson serving as the team's leading scorer and assist man, while Hassan Whiteside paced the club in boards; both figure to remain significant DFS […]

Fantasy Basketball Injury Updates for Week 15 - Lauri Markkanen, Domantas Sabonis, Kyle Lowry, Anthony Edwards, Mitchell Robinson, Alex Caruso, Lonzo Ball, Anthony Davis

Just a heads up that I'm writing this mostly before the games on Monday, so please confirm my information here before you click that "add" button real quick. That due diligence will save you from making a costly mistake. A couple of big Bulls injuries happened this week, which is unfortunate for this Bulls fan […]

Royce O'Neale Unavailable For Monday

Utah Jazz forward Royce O'Neale (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Phoenix Suns. He is dealing with knee tendonitis, so he'll sit out the second game of the back-to-back set. The Jazz are missing a majority of their starters for this contest. Fantasy managers should expect Rudy Gay and Eric Paschall […]

Joe Ingles Won't Play Against Suns

Utah Jazz forward Joe Ingles (ankle) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Phoenix Suns. Ingles will be joined by Mike Conley (rest), Donovan Mitchell (concussion) and Bojan Bogdanovic (finger) on the sideline. Jordan Clarkson should enter the starting five and see plenty of chances with the ball. Trent Forrest and possibly Danuel […]

Rudy Gobert, Mike Conley Will Miss Monday’s Contest

Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert (calf) and point guard Mike Conley (knee, rest) have been ruled out for Monday's game vs. the Suns. Gobert has recently battled an ankle ailment but he will now be sidelined due to a strained left calf. Conley's absence comes as a form of load management after playing 29 minutes […]

Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers for Week 15: Justin Holiday, Nerlens Noel, Kevon Looney, Bismack Biyombo, Danilo Gallinari

I'm still pissed off about my Bulls losing to the Orlando Magic, but at least in fantasy Magic, I'm holding it down. I guess we all have to be good at something, right? Let's see how our top picks last week fared: Nicolas Claxton (FG%, N/A INJ), Danilo Gallinari  (FT%, 10th-round value), Coby White (PTS […]

Rudy Gobert Will Play Against Warriors

Utah Jazz center Rudy Gobert (ankle) will be available for Sunday's game against the Golden State Warriors. He is good to go for this contest after dealing with left ankle soreness. He should play nearly 40 minutes with Hassan Whiteside (conditioning) remaining on the sideline. Also, Gobert should be asked to do more on the […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/23/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups

We have nine games over on the main slate tonight, highlighted by the monster implied totals and fast projected paces of the Hawks-Hornets and Nets-Timberwolves contests. The Sixers-Spurs, Jazz-Warriors, and Lakers-Heat games also have their share of fantasy appeal, while the Grizzlies-Mavericks game and the Magic and Pistons don't look to be attractive targets tonight. […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/21/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups

Happy Friday RotoBallers! As usual, we have a jam-packed Friday night slate, filled with some juicy matchups. These articles focus on the overall best plays, which are typically more suited for cash games. However, with larger slates like this one, you don't have to worry about ownership getting steamed up too hard usually, so consider […]

Donovan Mitchell Remains Sidelined For Friday’s Game

Utah Jazz point/shooting guard Donovan Mitchell (concussion) will miss Friday's contest against Detroit as he remains in the league's concussion protocol. Joe Ingles stepped into the starting five Wednesday in place of Mitchell, while Bojan Bogdanovic led the team in scoring (29 points) and Royce O'Neale snagged 15 boards to go along with five assists […]

DraftKings, FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/20/22): Today's Top NBA DFS Lineups

It's Thursday and we have hoops on our televisions! We truly are blessed. While there are only three games tipping off, two will be featured on TNT, headlined by the PHX/DAL matchup tipping off at 7:30 PM ET. Despite the lighter slate, DFS is still a thing and there are still plenty of opportunities to […]

Rudy Gay Will Miss Wednesday’s Contest

Utah Jazz small/power forward Rudy Gay (heel) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Rockets due to right heel soreness. Gay's absence figures to open up more offensive usage among the second unit for Jordan Clarkson and Eric Paschall, although Utah's rotations stand to be in flux with Donovan Mitchell (concussion) also missing […]
