Saturday slates are typically smaller, ranging from four to six games on the main slate on most occasions.

Kyle Kuzma Leads All Scorers In Win Over Houston
Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma poured in buckets during their five-point win over the Houston Rockets on Wednesday. The 27-year-old registered 33 points, nine rebounds, two assists, one steal, and one block while shooting 12-for-25 overall and 5-for-13 from deep. Now that Rui Hachimura has been traded, Kuzma will likely see even more usage at […]
Fantasy Basketball Mid-Week Streamers: Week 15
It's an unconventional finish to the week in Week 15 of the NBA schedule. It's nice having 6 games tonight on a Thursday, but then we have a very odd flip tomorrow with only five games on a Friday and then 11 on Saturday. Sunday then wraps up the week with only four games. Most […]
Monte Morris Will Sit Out Wednesday
Washington Wizards guard Monte Morris (hamstring) has been ruled out Wednesday against the Houston Rockets. The Wizards are entering the second night of a back-to-back set and are being extra cautious with Morris who was sidelined for a good chunk of the season due to hamstring issues.

Washington Wizards point guard Monte Morris (hamstring) could miss his seventh game of the season Wednesday against Houston, with him being considered questionable for the action. Morris has enjoyed a strong campaign as Washington's starting point guard, averaging 10.4 points with 3.4 rebounds and 5.4 assists. Delon Wright is set to replace him in the […]

Kristaps Porzingis Considered Week-To-Week
Washington Wizards center Kristaps Porzingis (ankle) is expected to miss some time after suffering an injury during Saturday's game. Head coach Wes Unseld sounded optimistic about the issue after the game. However, the organization is considering Porzingis week-to-week with a sprained left ankle. It wouldn't be shocking to see the Wizards be cautious with Porzingis […]
Rui Hachimura Headed To The Lakers
Washington Wizards forward Rui Hachimura has been traded to the Los Angeles Lakers on Monday. The Wizards will receive Kendrick Nunn and three second-round picks in exchange for Hachimura. A good move by the Lakers to bring in another scoring option, which they desperately need. Hachimura is averaging 13.0 points and 4.3 rebounds off the […]
Kristaps Porzingis Suffers An Ankle Injury
Washington Wizards forward/center Kristaps Porzingis suffered a fresh injury blow in Saturday's matchup against Orlando when he sprained his left ankle in the third quarter.

We've got a six-game slate and plenty of intriguing spots to work with. The 76ers-Kings game is the top matchup to target for DFS tonight, but the Hornets-Hawks and Rockets-Timberwolves are also appealing game environments.

Kyle Kuzma Shines In Win Over Knicks
Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma had himself a night as he led the team in three separate categories in a 116-105 win over the New York Knicks on Wednesday. The 27-year-old finished the game with 27 points, 13 rebounds, seven assists, one steal, and one block while shooting 11-for-24 from the floor and 4-for-12 from […]
Bradley Beal To Have "Limitations" On Wednesday
Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal (hamstring) will have his minutes monitored against the New York Knicks on Wednesday.

Washington Wizards shooting guard Bradley Beal (hamstring) is expected to return to the lineup Wednesday against the Knicks.

The injury report fortunately isn't overly populated with many short-term issues, either, which helps keep […]
Bradley Beal Questionable Again Wednesday
Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal (hamstring) is questionable to play Wednesday against the New York Knicks. The Wizards continue to list Beal as questionable before ruling him out ahead of game time, but the good news is Beal has been practicing with the team.

DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/16/23): NBA DFS Lineups

Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal (hamstring) has been out for the team's last four games and is uncertain to return to the floor on Monday against the Golden State Warriors. The 29-year-old has been dealing with a left hamstring strain that was expected to keep him out for at least a week and now could […]
Kyle Kuzma Racks Up 40 Points Against The Knicks
Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma went full Kevin Durant against the Knicks on Friday, scoring a game-high 40 points in a 112-108 loss. He had the same amount of points he had combined with his two previous appearances and just one more make from the field would've given Kuzma his new scoring record. He finished […]
Daniel Gafford Good To Go Against New York
Washington Wizards center Daniel Gafford (ankle) will play on Friday night against the Knicks. The 24-year-old didn't suit up on Wednesday versus the Chicago Bulls, opening the door for Taj Gibson to get the start and finish just shy of a low-end double-double. Gafford has averaged only 7.7 points, 4.8 rebounds, and 1.1 blocks this […]
Kristaps Porzingis Will Play On Friday Evening
Washington Wizards forward Kristaps Porzingis (ribs) is available on Friday against the Knicks. The veteran only missed one game because of a rib contusion, so he'll be back in the lineup for this one. While Porzingis is always a must-start fantasy option, he could be even more motivated to produce versus his former team.
Kristaps Porzingis and Daniel Gafford Listed As Questionable
Washington Wizards big men Kristaps Porzingis (ribs) and Daniel Gafford (ankle) both missed the team's last game on Wednesday night and now they're in danger of missing another.
