NBA DFS Risers/Fallers for Week 9

Player values are constantly moving targets in daily leagues. A high profile player can put together a couple of big games and see his price tag skyrocket.

BALLER MOVE: Add as a handcuff for Rashad Jennings OWNED IN: 3% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Shane Vereen may return to action next week just in time to face the division rival Cowboys.

Derrick Henry (RB, TEN) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues as a Demarco Murray handcuff OWNED IN: 60% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: The Titans were the last NFL team to have a bye (technically Cleveland counts too), so nothing has changed with Henry.

Mike Gillislee (RB, BUF) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 31% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: It's perplexing to see his ownership level drop so far, but that could work to your advantage if you have room to stash an RB entering the fantasy playoffs.

Kenneth Dixon (RB, BAL) - NFL Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Avoid in Week 14 OWNED IN: 34% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: For the first time in five weeks, Kenneth Dixon saw his usage go down.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 32% Fleaflicker ANALYSIS: Wendell Smallwood had a great chance to stand out with Ryan Mathews still sidelined in Week 13, but was shut down by the Bengals instead.
