If you're like me, you woke up to one of the biggest trades in recent NBA history (Luka for AD) and are still trying to make sense of it. It will likely be the biggest trade of the week, but it won't be the only deal made this week as Thursday's NBA trade deadline looms. […]

FanDuel NBA DFS Picks for Today (Friday, 1/24/25): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

Tight ends often go overlooked […]

Running Back Matchups to Target in Divisional Round - Saquon Barkley, Derrick Henry, Jahmyr Gibbs
It's no surprise that most of the teams remaining in the playoffs have running backs who had huge statistical seasons. These backs are the cream of the crop and have been staples in our DFS lineups all season long. But we can only play two or three of them in a lineup at a time […]
