Giannis Antetokounmpo Ruled Out Versus Pacers

Milwaukee Bucks forward Giannis Antetokounmpo (knee) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Indiana Pacers. The severity of the injury is unknown, but this might just be the Bucks playing it safe with their superstar forward. Bobby Portis will become a favorable streaming choice and DFS option for Monday. Both Donte Divincenzo and […]

Darius Garland Questionable On Monday

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Darius Garland (quad) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Sacramento Kings. The young guard has been playing a ton of minutes lately, so this might be more of a rest game for him. Dylan Windler and Lamar Stevens will be asked to pick up the slack, assuming Garland is […]

Al Horford Sidelined On Monday

Oklahoma City Thunder forward Al Horford (rest) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. This is Horford's fifth time sitting out over the last eight contests. Obviously, the Thunder don't want Horford to get injured with the trade deadline approaching. They have really no incentive to play him, so Horford won't […]

Elfrid Payton Might Play Versus Wizards

New York Knicks guard Elfrid Payton (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Washington Wizards. He has been sidelined lately due to hamstring soreness, but might be able to suit up here. Derrick Rose has a chance to play as well after being out due to the NBA's health and safety protocols. […]

Luguentz Dort Out On Monday

Oklahoma City Thunder guard Luguentz Dort (toe) is listed as out for Monday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Dort dropped 23 points and helped pull off the win on Sunday. However, the team is going to sit him here due to "toe soreness", which basically means resting him against one of their tank competitors. Kenrich […]

Mitchell Robinson, Immanuel Quickley Probable For Tuesday

New York Knicks center Mitchell Robinson (ankle) and guard Immanuel Quickley (ankle) are listed as probable for Tuesday's game against the Washington Wizards. Robinson returned on Sunday, but only lasted 17 minutes due to an ankle issue. It sounds like he'll likely suit up for this one which will mean Nerlens Noel won't have much […]

Terrence Ross Questionable On Tuesday

Orlando Magic guard Terrence Ross (knee) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He has missed five of the last six games due to knee soreness. The severity of Ross' injury is unknown since Orlando could be resting him with the trade deadline approaching. Evan Fournier, James Ennis, and Michael Carter-Williams […]

Fantasy Basketball Deep League Adds: Week 13

The deeper a fantasy 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 help […]

Alec Burks (SG/SF, NYK) - Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 23% of leagues ANALYSIS: I, like many of you, never thought I'd see the day that the New York Knicks are a highly competent organization with the power to craft a winner from raw materials as opposed to living and dying by the free agents that never […]

Svi Mykhailiuk (SG/SF, OKC) - Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 1% of leagues ANALYSIS: It's been a slow build in the NBA for Sviatoslav Mykhailiuk, as is the case for many young players who got their start in European basketball. After he was selected in the second round of the 2018 NBA Draft from Kansas by the […]

Cody Martin (SF, CHA) - Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 0% of leagues ANALYSIS: ROY front-runner and Hornets point guard LaMelo Ball will miss the rest of the season due to a fractured wrist. Putting aside the fact that the injury is extremely unfortunate for both LaMelo and the playoff-hopeful Hornets, the fact remains that there is […]

Desmond Bane (SG, MEM) - Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 1% of leagues ANALYSIS: The Grizzlies have effectively kept me guessing as to which of their guards would remain viable for rostering in deeper leagues; with Desmond Bane, Grayson Allen, Tyus Jones, and even Justise Winslow having been a part of that fold. If Desmond Bane was […]

Ty Jerome (PG/SG, OKC) - Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 3% of leagues ANALYSIS: George Hill nears his return to the OKC rotation while he recovers from an ankle injury, and yet at the same time, that moment realistically feels a moderate distance away. With rookie Theo Maledon left at the helm, the Thunder opted to bring […]

Jaxson Hayes (C, NO) - Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 6% of leagues ANALYSIS: Hopefully Jaxson Hayes didn't tune in to watch his alma mater Longhorns get bounced in the Round of 64 by #14 seed Abilene Christian, because that could get in one's head. The second-year NBA center has seen a slight reduction in PT this […]

Fred VanVleet Fills Up The Box Score In Losing Effort

Toronto Raptors guard Fred VanVleet did a little bit of everything for his team despite their 116-105 loss to Cleveland on Sunday. VanVleet poured in 23 points with seven assists, five treys, two blocks, two steals, and a rebound in 41 minutes. The shooting wasn't pretty, as he went 8-for-24 from the field and 5 […]

Jarrett Allen Posts Huge Double-Double

Cleveland Cavaliers center Jarrett Allen scored 17 points with 15 rebounds, an assist, and a block in Sunday's win over Toronto. Allen also matched his season-high with nine makes at the free-throw line. The 22-year-old has blocked at least one shot in each of his last six games and has a double-double in four games […]

Collin Sexton Goes Off For 36 Points With Six Triples

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Collin Sexton went off in Sunday's 116-105 win over the Raptors. Sexton scored a game-high 36 points with six triples, four assists, three rebounds, and two steals in 39 minutes. He did have six turnovers, but that shouldn't overshadow just how good the 22-year-old was in this one. Sexton scored 23 of […]

Houston Rockets center Christian Wood shot 9-for-16 from the field and scored a team-high 27 points in Sunday's 114-112 loss to OKC, adding eight rebounds, two assists, two blocks, and one steal.

He shot 5-for-8 from the field and 3-for-6 from the free-throw line. Houston has been crushed by centers all year, and they are struggling against bigs even with Christian […]

Luguentz Dort Comes Up Big On Both Ends Of The Court

Oklahoma City Thunder guard/forward Luguentz Dort played a key role on both ends of the court in Sunday's 114-112 win over Houston, scoring a team-high 23 points and blocking John Wall's shot inside the final 10 seconds of play. He also had one steal on the defensive end, adding three rebounds and three assists in […]

Jimmy Butler Grabs Season-High 15 Rebounds

Miami Heat small forward Jimmy Butler picked up a season-high 15 rebounds in Sunday's overtime loss to the Pacers, adding 21 points and seven assists. He shot 7-for-16 from the field and 7-for-8 at the charity stripe. Butler was a bit cold from the field, but he's filled it up across all categories throughout the […]

Marc Gasol Out Sunday And Possibly More

Los Angeles Lakers center Marc Gasol (conditioning) will not play Sunday against the Phoenix Suns. Gasol is still recovering from COVID-19 and is "wiped out". Head coach Frank Vogel noted Gasol could be out for a few games as he ramps up his conditioning. With Gasol still out, Damian Jones has been starting, but the […]
