I live in Boston, but grew up in Washington state, where I picked up bad habits like rooting for the Mariners. Since the Sonics left Seattle, I've been having open auditions for my new favorite NBA team. So far I haven't found a bandwagon that feels right, outside of "whoever is playing against those thieves in Oklahoma City."

J.J. Hickson (PF/C, DEN) - NBA Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add for REB and BLK in Deep H2H Leagues OWNED: 7% of Yahoo! Leagues ANALYSIS: At this point in his career we know what J.J. Hickson is. He is an excellent rebounder. He's a terrible free throw shooter (which makes him untouchable in roto leagues). He will get you some blocks, but never […]


NBA Waiver Wire: Guards (Week 2)

On Monday RotoBaller covered waiver wire centers worth adding and on Tuesday we covered forwards.  Today, in a big surprise, it's time for the guards!  Here are some PGs and SGs who might be worth adding to your team, depending on your needs and the depth of your league.   NBA Week 2 Waiver Wire: […]


Dennis Schroder (PG, ATL) - NBA Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add for Points/Assists/Threes OWNED: 21% of Yahoo Fantasy Basketball Leagues ANALYSIS: Dennis Schroder provided a spark coming off the bench for the Hawks in their season opener against Detroit, scoring 20 points on 8/14 shooting, with 2 three pointers, 3 rebounds, 4 assists, and 2 steals. The explosive German looked like one of the […]


Ish Smith (PG, NO) - NBA Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in Deep (14-16+ team) Leagues OWNED: 5% of Yahoo Fantasy Basketball Leagues ANALYSIS: Ish Smith exploded off the bench in the season opener for the injury-ravaged Pelicans, playing 38 minutes and scoring 17 points on a .538 FG% with a league-leading 9 assists.  He also tacked on 3 steals, 2 rebounds, and […]

Week 20 Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire: NBA Centers

We are beginning to enter the final stage of separating the contenders from the pretenders, both in The Association and fantasy leagues.  The following centers, whether of the “sleeper” variety or just cashing in temporarily on an unforeseen opportunity, almost certainly deserve attention across the various formats during Week 19 of the campaign. Position Eligibility […]


Tyler Zeller (PF/C, BOS) - NBA Waiver Wire Pickup

BALLER MOVE: Add in all leagues OWNED: 30% of Yahoo! Fantasy Basketball leagues ANALYSIS: With Jared Sullinger out for the season and Kelly Olynyk hobbled, there are plenty of frontcourt minutes to go around for Zeller to snag. A solid scorer, Zeller doesn't provide numbers in rebounding or blocks that you'd expect in your big men but […]


Week 18 Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire: NBA Centers

No doubt you are still sorting through the fall-out of an explosive trade deadline. Rotoballer has you covered.  The following centers, whether of the “sleeper” variety or just cashing in temporarily on an unforeseen opportunity, almost certainly deserve attention across the various formats during Week 18 of the campaign. Position Eligibility & Ownership Rate Based […]


Mike Dunleavy (SG/SF, CHI) - NBA Waiver Wire Pickup

BALLER MOVE: Add as a three point specialist OWNED: 35% of Yahoo! Fantasy Basketball leagues ANALYSIS: Mike Dunleavy returned from injury two games before the All Star Break. He then got an additional week off for the extended All Star break. Though Dunleavy won't give you stats in many categories (rebounding, assists, steals, blocks), he does provide steady […]


Week 17 Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire: NBA Category Specialists

Sitting here in the fourth month of the 2014-15 season, it is time to dive back into the NBA waiver wire. Today, the focus is on fantasy basketball sleepers of the "Category Specialist" variety that can each help out in different areas during Week 17. Position Eligibility & Ownership Rate Based on Yahoo! Fantasy Basketball […]


All-Star Break - Rest of Season Rankings and Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire: NBA Centers

In the middle of the All-Star Break, we present a full ranking of top 50 centers, with alternate rankings for leagues where you are punting either free throw percentage or field goal percentage. Following that, two centers will be highlighted from my rankings who remain widely available in fantasy leagues. Position Eligibility & Ownership Rate […]


Week 16 Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire: NBA Category Specialists

It is now officially the All-Star Break, so it's time to take a look at a couple of guys who are owned in fewer than 50% of leagues, but who can still help with key categories coming right out of the break. Position Eligibility & Ownership Rate Based on Yahoo! Fantasy Basketball Player List   Free […]


Jason Smith (PF/C, NYK) - Waiver Wire Pickup

BALLER MOVE: Add in deeper leagues and as injury plug in OWNED: 8% in Yahoo! Fantasy Basketball league ANALYSIS: The tank job in New York is in full effect still and Jason Smith has been one of the biggest benefactors because of it. With a potential buyout on the horizon for Amar'e Stoudemire (one that the Knicks would […]


Wayne Ellington (SG, LAL) - NBA Waiver Wire Pickup

BALLER MOVE: Add as a three point specialist OWNED: 27% on Yahoo! Fantasy Basketball leagues ANALYSIS: In a true sign of Laker irrelevance, Wayne Ellington is only a quarter owned despite flirting with 40 minutes a night. Though not a must own in all leagues, he is definitely someone to consider if you're looking for 3-point help. […]

Donatas Motiejunas (SF/PF/C, HOU) - NBA Waiver Wire Pickup

BALLER MOVE: Add in all leagues OWNED: 38% owned in Yahoo! Fantasy Basketball leagues ANALYSIS:  D-Mo makes another appearance on this list. When Terrance Jones made his season debut earlier this month, owners everywhere worried that the young Lithuanian would watch his minutes and production drop to untouchable levels. Instead, we watched as Dwight Howard went […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in all leagues OWNED: 35% in Yahoo!
