Navigating The Clippers Trade Deadline Moves - Fantasy Basketball Impact

The Los Angeles Clippers are in the heat of the congested Western Conference playoff race and were one of the more active franchises during Thursday's trade deadline. The Clippers had some glaring needs, specifically at the point guard position, and needed to surround their star forwards, Paul George and Kawhi Leonard, with more talent to […]

Russell Westbrook Traded To Jazz - Fantasy Basketball Impact

The Russell Westbrook experiment in Los Angeles has been less than ideal over the past two years and has officially come to an end. With the West stocking up everywhere, the Lakers knew they had to make a splash in order to make a push to the playoffs. The Lakers executed a three-team trade with […]

Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers - Week 16

We're well in the weeds now as leagues have started getting into their playoff match ups based on your league settings.

Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers - Week 15

It's been a couple weeks since the NBA trade deadline and we are finally seeing the rotations solidify with all the new faces in their new places.

Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers - Week 14

Now the dust has settled and we will see a ton of the same faces in new places after a crazy trade deadline.

Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers - Week 13

After all the March Madness we have seen this past weekend, the NBA trade deadline and fantasy playoffs loom in the distance. Those looking for a playoff push can't afford to be frugal with their acquisitions, but it could also help to see how the trade deadline shapes up and pick up the pieces from […]

Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers - Week 12

It's been a long two weeks after making through a bit of a disappointing All-Star weekend, but we are now nearing the trade deadline and should be in store for more excitement sooner rather than later. After just three games in the past two weeks, the Los Angeles Lakers headline as the only team with […]

Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers - Week 11

We have finally made it to the All-Star break and with that looming next week, we have a two-week match up for fantasy. The two weeks leave a ton of streaming potential in lineups while also adding some additional acquisitions. There are three teams with six games over the next two weeks: the New Orleans […]

Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers - Week 10

Week 10 will likely be known as the week of back-to-backs as a total of 21 teams are playing in a back-to-back set this week. Beware of older and/or banged up players who may sit at any point this week. The Memphis Grizzlies surprisingly sat players on Saturday to rest so no team is safe. […]

Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers - Week 9

The Raptors are starting the figure it out. The Cavaliers and Rockets are slipping again. The Knicks and Hornets are playoff contenders. The Jazz are the best team in the league.

Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers - Week 8

The COVID-19 bug strikes again as we had an absolutely bizarre situation on Friday with Kevin Durant. Kevin Durant was held out of the starting lineup, but was then cleared to play off the bench only to be pulled again during the third quarter. Now Durant is in the health and safety protocols and won't […]

Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers - Week 7

Week 6 only had the two Memphis games postponed due to health and safety protocols which has been on the lower side lately. Hopefully the league has gotten their protocols together and we are on the tail-end of postponements for now, but we could see some as Tyler Herro's housemate tested positive for COVID-19 and […]

Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers - Week 6

We have gotten to the point where you most likely know where your team stacks up in your league and hopefully you can pinpoint your strengths and weaknesses by streaming. This week, we only have one game postponement so far with the Sacramento Kings and Memphis Grizzlies game postponed on Monday. Obviously, a lot can […]

Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers - Week 5

Cheers to those who survived one of the craziest weeks in NBA history and somehow squeaked out a win. We knew this fantasy season would not be easy, but it has proven to be quite a challenge and we are only four weeks in. We saw a plethora of games suspended, included the entire week […]

Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers - Week 4

Here we go again. This past week we have seen four teams with positive or inconclusive COVID-19 tests, leading to quite a few key players quarantine. We even saw the Miami Heat and Boston Celtics game postponed Sunday (even though the Denver Nuggets vs. Philadelphia 76ers game on Saturday should have also been postponed). Streaming […]

Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers - Week 3

Another week down and we are now starting to see where team rotations are heading while some navigate injuries or COVID-19 complications.

Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers - Week 2

And just like that, the first week of the 2020-2021 NBA season comes to an end. With the first week in the books, there will always be some overreactions to surprising performances like Terry Rozier's 42 points in the opener or the nine-point effort Damian Lillard had in their opener. Despite all that, in category […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (8/19/20): NBA DFS Lineups

Once again, Tuesday proved there is not much better than playoff basketball. The Orlando Magic had a huge upset over the Milwaukee Bucks, proving even the top teams can be vulnerable in a neutral site. The Miami Heat and Indiana Pacers went toe-to-toe down the stretch.

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (8/5/20): NBA DFS Lineups

Tuesday's slate could have been a huge disappointment or massive success as the top seeded Milwaukee Bucks fell to the Brooklyn Nets. The Bucks were 19.0-point favorites, but head coach Mike Budenholzer limited his starters between 15-20 minutes and removed Brook Lopez (rest) from the lineup entirely right before tip-off. Sometimes basketball can be completely […]
