Fantasy Basketball Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 20: Immanuel Quickley, Donte DiVincenzo, Bones Hyland, Caleb Martin, Austin Reaves
The deeper a fantasy basketball league, the harder it is to hit a winner with your last few picks. It is also harder to find decent help from the waiver wire if your late-round picks don't do you justice. If you picked up a few stinkers, don't lose hope just yet. I will try to […]
Kristaps Porzingis To Make Wizards Debut
Washington Wizards forward/center Kristaps Porzingis (knee) will make his team debut on Sunday against Indiana. The veteran has yet to play for his new club since being acquired from the Dallas Mavericks ahead of the trade deadline. Nevertheless, at full strength, Porzingis would substantially lessen the collective ceilings of Daniel Gafford and Thomas Bryant. However, […]

NBA DFS Prop Picks for 3/4/22 - Monkey Knife Fight
The end of the NBA season is a double-edged sword. The closer we get to the finish, the more the games either do, or don’t matter.

Washington Wizards forward Deni Avdija (quad) was unable to play his normal role during Tuesday's win over the Detroit Pistons. He exited in the first quarter after taking a knee to his quad.

Fantasy Basketball Injury Updates for Week 19 - Ben Simmons, Darius Garland, Josh Giddey, OG Anunoby, Michael Porter Jr., Chris Paul
We're now entering fantasy playoffs time for NBA basketball, so you should be double-checking things regardless. There's no room for mistakes when you're up for a 'ship. I've lost matchups by a few steals or a few rebounds in the last few seasons, for example. That's the margin. No errors! Since the stakes are high, […]

The deeper a fantasy basketball league, the harder it is to hit a winner with your last few picks. It is also harder to find decent help from the waiver wire if your late-round picks don't do you justice. If you picked up a few stinkers, don't lose hope just yet. I will try to […]

DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/1/22): NBA DFS Lineups
Happy Tuesday and happy March, Rotoballers! The Association gives us a medium-sized six-game slate tonight, and it's looking like a split schedule with three enticing matchups for DFS and three... not-so-enticing games. Regardless, I will sift through the player pool, find the players I want to have in my NBA lineups, and then recommend them […]

The Washington Wizards have officially signed point guard Tomas Satoransky, who agreed to a buyout with the San Antonio Spurs this past week.

It was a rough night for player props (0-3), but I went 3-1 on totals and spreads with the only miss there being a big whiff on the Raptors who got blown out by the Hornets. There were some sweaty moments in there as the Spurs needed three overtimes to finally put Washington away and […]

Last night the NBA returned from a week-long break and whet our appetites for basketball action.

NBA DFS Prop Picks for 2/25/22 - Monkey Knife Fight
Basketball was gone for too long and yesterday’s games featured all inter-conference matchups in some quality, semi-competitive basketball. Nearly every game was close for the first half, but the healthier, better equipped team won in nearly every case and three conference powerhouses, the Warriors, Suns, and Celtics, all dominated when it mattered, late in their […]
Thomas Bryant Earns Questionable Tag For Friday’s Game
Washington Wizards center Thomas Bryant (ankle) has been deemed questionable to suit up for Friday's contest vs. the Spurs due to a sprained right ankle.

Washington Wizards center Kristaps Porzingis (knee) has been ruled out for Friday's contest against San Antonio as he works his way back from a bone bruise in his right knee.

Kristaps Porzingis Remains Day-To-Day
Washington Wizards center Kristaps Porzingis (knee) appears to be making progress, but remains listed as day-to-day. Head coach Wes Unseld Jr. mentioned that Porzingis was able to do more during Thursday's practice. Although, Porzingis hasn't done 3-on-3 drills and it doesn't sound like he'll play in Friday's game. The All-Star center has seemingly been banged […]

The NBA returns from the All-Star break with a solid seven-game slate Thursday night. What always makes the first night of post-All-Star-break play intriguing is that teams come in with a degree of rest that isn't possible at any other point in time past Opening Night. The injury report is unsurprisingly light overall on short-term […]
Buy-Low, Sell-High, NBA Fantasy Basketball Playoffs
All-Star weekend has come to a close, which means two things. One, and maybe most obvious, we're in the second half of the 2021-22 NBA season.

Washington Wizards power forward Rui Hachimura (ankle) has been cleared to suit up for Thursday's game against the Nets.
