2025 Fantasy Basketball Third Year Breakouts and Busts

The NBA is becoming a young man's league. Rookies are playing more than ever before, and while every young player faces a different set of expectations (based on where they were drafted), many are expected to start showing the promise of becoming a rotational player for their respective teams within the first three years of […]

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 […]

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 […]

Daily NBA Prop Bets - Top Player Props, Value Picks and Quick Odds (12/2/25)

The NBA schedule is finally starting to even out as we get a very solid slate of six games on the first Tuesday in December. The snow is falling here in Pennsylvania as I pen this article, but the prop picks in this piece have been running hot all season long. I bundled up this […]

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.

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.

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 […]

Young players are emerging, including an […]
