I'm excited to be writing for RotoBaller.com as this is the perfect site to combine my three passions: sports, writing, and fantasy sports!

Fantasy Basketball: 2015 NBA Trade Deadline Fallout

  Well, that was a busy NBA trade deadline. Now that the smoke has cleared, there are some big names, and some not so big names, who will be playing for new teams going forward. A record number of players and picks were moved before the 3pm deadline on Thursday, and the aftermath is sure […]


Week 17 Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups: NBA Guards

Hope you all enjoyed the NBA All-Star Break. Of course, after the game, there is a lull in the season. As boring as it may be, this is a great time to work the waiver wire and retool your roster for the stretch run. The following guards, whether of the “sleeper” variety or just cashing in […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in all leagues OWNED: 40% of Yahoo! Fantasy Basketball leagues ANALYSIS: Charlotte dealt for Williams last week after the veteran was putting up some mid round fantasy numbers in January (16.9 points, 6.3 assists, and 2.3 three pointers per contest), in hopes that they would receive the plug that'll keep them in a playoff push […]

Week 16 Fantasy Basketball Waiver Pickups: NBA Guards

It's All-Star week, meaning there are no teams playing more than three games, and there will be no games this weekend. Just because the players are taking time off, does not mean you should. In fact, this is a perfect time to let some dust clear, and evaluate your squad going forward. With trades, injuries, and shutdowns […]

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (SG/SF, DET) - NBA Waiver Wire Pickup

BALLER MOVE: Add in all leagues OWNED: 22% of Yahoo! Fantasy Basketball leagues ANALYSIS: The second year guard is on fire right now and considering his lines last week (16.7 points, 3.7 rebounds, 1.3 steals and 2.3 three pointers per game) he should be added in all leagues until he begins to cool off. Another player […]


D.J. Augustin (PG, DET) - NBA Waiver Wire Pickup

BALLER MOVE: Add in all leagues OWNED: 56% of Yahoo! Fantasy Basketball leagues ANALYSIS: D.J. Augustin started the season by turning heads, when Stan Van Gundy logged him over thirty minutes in his first two games. Then Brandon Jennings changed SVG's mind.

Fantasy NBA: The Kobe Conundrum

I am a Kobe Bryant fantasy basketball owner. If you can relate to that statement this season, then you undoubtedly feel my pain. It has been a long season in Laker land this year, and Bryant has not been immune to the effects of the dumpster fire that has been the Lakers' season thus far. At […]
