Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups and Streamers for Week 8 (2025): 12/8-12/14

Welcome to Week 8 of the fantasy basketball schedule - also known as "that super weird week that is all jacked up because of the in-season tournament." Yes, the NBA Emirates Cup quarterfinals and semifinals will be played on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Saturday, so we have quite the strange schedule and a very small number […]

Running Back Matchups to Target for Week 14 (2025) - James Cook III, Josh Jacobs, Chase Brown, More

Even with Christian McCaffrey on a bye this week, this may be one of the strongest groups of running backs that we have had on the main DFS slate in over a month. Tough decisions will have to be made when building lineups, especially because we really don't have any obvious value at the position […]

The Fantasy Basketball Cut List - Who to Drop or Hold After Week 6

After taking Thanksgiving week off - a week where we had fewer NBA games than usual - I'm bringing the Cut List back with some fresh names to consider dropping. I'll also revisit some players who we've discussed already this season who simply aren't worth rostering in standard formats. Every league is different, and certain […]

Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups and Streamers for Week 7 (2025): 12/1-12/7

After a lighter week of games over the holiday, the NBA schedule is absolutely loaded up this week with 22 teams playing four times and perhaps the most balanced allotment of games across every day. We get at least five games every day, making for some very valuable schedules for streaming on those days that […]

Running Back Matchups to Target for Week 13 (2025) - Kyren Williams, James Cook III, Travis Etienne Jr., Jaylen Warren

There are three running backs on the 10-game main slate who have massive usage - as both a runner and a receiver - which gives them an incredibly high floor. I'm talking about Christian McCaffrey, Bijan Robinson, and De'Von Achane, of course, three backs who rank in the top five of the league in opportunity […]

After a day off for the Thanksgiving holiday, the NBA returns tonight with 11 games in the final round of group play for the NBA Emirates Cup. While FanDuel has included all 11 games on one slate, DraftKings decided to split the slate in half with a six-gamer tipping off at 7:30 PM and another […]

Welcome to a special Thanksgiving edition of the running back matchups to target! We have three pretty compelling matchups on Thursday, and your DFS lineups aren't going to get into the green without having the right running backs in them, that's for sure! The primary focus of this piece is for NFL DFS; however, these […]

Thanksgiving Day and Black Friday NFL Player Props: Expert Prop Picks and Anytime Touchdown Bets (2025)

It's long been a tradition to have both Dallas and Detroit host home games on Thanksgiving, but at some point (how long ago I cannot recall), the NFL decided to add a third game to the schedule. Only recently have they added an afternoon game on Black Friday, so that we have yet another island […]

NBA DFS: Top Daily Fantasy Expert Picks for DraftKings, FanDuel (11/26/25)

It's a little bit of a muted NBA DFS slate tonight compared to most Wednesdays. We have an 8-game slate on both sites on this Thanksgiving Eve, but due to the matchups and some injuries, we have less star power than usual. Victor Wembanyama continues to sit out for the Spurs, and Kevin Durant will […]

Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups and Streamers for Week 6 (2025): 11/24-11/30

Welcome back to this week's edition of the Fantasy Basketball Cut List.

Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups and Streamers for Week 5 (2025): 11/17-11/23

As the first month of the NBA season comes to a close this week, we are seeing the return of some players who have been sitting out since the season began (like Coby White), while other troublesome injuries to superstars continue to linger (Joel Embiid, Anthony Davis, Jalen Green). Young players are emerging, including an […]

We have what could be, in my opinion, the best collection of games we've seen all season in Week 11. Two AFC North battles, a Bills-Bucs showdown, Chargers-Jags, Chiefs-Broncos, and a huge matchup between the Rams and Seahawks are all on tap for the main slate, with the Lions-Eagles clash for dessert in the Sunday […]

The NBA Emirates Cup action resumes tonight with nine games in the Association.

In fact, we will see the return of LaMelo Ball […]

The Fantasy Basketball Cut List - Who to Drop or Hold After Week 3

Some of my cut list targets last week took it personally, especially CJ McCollum, who snapped back to life with two 25-point outings and a 42-point game in overtime. I'm not reading too much into that production or feeling bad about that recommendation; I think his outlook for the long term remains the same. Anfernee […]
