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 […]

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.

BALLER MOVE: Add in all leagues OWNED: 56% of Yahoo! Fantasy Basketball leagues ANALYSIS: D.J.
