NBA Draft 2023: UDFAs Who Won't Waste Time

It's funny that every year at the NBA Draft, once the end of the guaranteed money and live appearances arrives at the end of the first round, everybody tunes out and refers to the 60th pick as "Mr. Irrelevant." That's not very accurate though, is it? Speaking historically, the title of "Mr. Irrelevant" could just […]

Fantasy Basketball Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds For Week 23: Trendon Watford, Xavier Tillman Sr., Nick Richards

The deeper a fantasy basketball league, the harder it is to hit a winner with your last few picks. It is also harder to find decent help from the waiver wire if your late-round picks don't do you justice. If you picked up a few stinkers, don't lose hope just yet. I will try to […]

It's championship week! Most leagues around the country will wrap up this week, leaving the final week and a half (and the inevitable chaos that ensues) out of their playoff format.

Early-Week Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers for Week 20

It's time for the playoffs! Most leagues start the playoffs this week unless you are in a non-typical format. You simply can't get too attached to anyone this time of year. If you have a stud that is going to be out more than a week or someone who's badly underperforming- just cut bait and […]
