NBA Analysis
All original RotoBaller NBA content, including fantasy basketball and non-fantasy news content, written by RotoBaller staff. Includes fantasy basketball articles, advice, analysis, waiver wire pickups, rankings, sleepers, etc.

Chris Boucher Posts A Career High In Points Against Dallas

Toronto Raptors big man Chris Boucher helped erase a 30-point deficit on Sunday with 21 points, seven rebounds and four blocked shots off the bench. The Raptors were content to let their young big man run wild in what looked to be a blowout loss, providing the second-most minutes he's seen in a game this […]


Rondae Hollis-Jefferson Posts A Season High Against Dallas

Toronto Raptors forward Rondae Hollis-Jefferson came up big in the team's historic 30-point comeback over the Mavericks on Sunday with 18 points and nine rebounds in just 28 minutes of action. Hollis-Jefferson has struggled all season long amid a crowded Raptors rotation, but this game marks his second straight in double figures. As Toronto deals […]


Kyle Lowry Nearly Compiles A Triple-Double Against Dallas

Toronto Raptors point guard Kyle Lowry sparked a 30-point comeback against Dallas on Sunday with 32 points, 10 assists and eight rebounds. It was one of Lowry's most complete efforts in the largest comeback in franchise history, which included shooting 12 of 23 from the field with five three-pointers and just one turnover. Lowry has […]


Kristaps Porzingis Struggles To Find The Mark In Toronto

Dallas Mavericks big man Kristaps Porzingis' impressive double-double of 19 points and 12 rebounds -- with three three-pointers and three blocks -- wasn't enough to offset his 5-for-15 shooting performance in allowing the Raptors to come back from a 30-point deficit. Porzingis had stepped up in the absence of Luka Doncic after the superstar sophomore […]


Jalen Brunson Scores A Season-High 21 Points

Dallas Mavericks point guard Jalen Brunson posted 21 points on eight of 14 shooting to go with nine assists and four rebounds in a heartbreaking loss to Toronto on Sunday. The 21 points mark a season high for Brunson, who has taken advantage of the extra opportunities afforded by the absence of Luka Doncic. This […]


Steven Adams Snatches Season-High 17 Rebounds

Oklahoma City Thunder center Steven Adams set a new season high with 17 rebounds during Sunday’s win over the Los Angeles Clippers, also reaching the 20-point plateau for the fourth time this year. Adams continues to be tenacious on the glass, having recorded at least nine rebounds in each of his past 12 outings. He […]


Shai Gilgeous-Alexander Ties Career High With 32-Point Outing

Oklahoma City Thunder point/shooting guard Shai Gilgeous-Alexander was held firmly in check the first time that he faced the Los Angeles Clippers -- his former team -- the first time that the two teams met this year. On Sunday, during Oklahoma City’s win, Gilgeous-Alexander tied his career high in scoring with 32 points on 12-for-25 […]


John Collins is Available for Monday's Game

Atlanta Hawks forward John Collins (suspension) will be available for Monday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Collins is set to return after serving his 25-game suspension. It doesn't sound like the Hawks are going to limit Collins much, but we'll wait and see if more updates come out. Jabari Parker could lose the most fantasy […]


Kyrie Irving Still Isn't Cleared for Contact

Brooklyn Nets guard Kyrie Irving (shoulder) hasn't been cleared for contact and is showing no signs of increasing his activities. It's unclear when Irving is going to get back on the court. It doesn't sound like Irving will take the court again this month, so fantasy owners can continue to roll with Spencer Dinwiddie.


Justise Winslow Won't Play on Monday

Miami Heat guard Justise Winslow (back) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Utah Jazz. He's dealing with a lower back strain, but getting ruled out a full day in advance isn't a good sign. It doesn't appear that Winslow is making much progress at the moment. Derrick Jones has stepped up in […]


Matisse Thybulle Ruled Out Indefinitely

Philadelphia 76ers guard Matisse Thybulle (knee) has been ruled out indefinitely following Saturday's victory over the Wizards. He suffered a right knee sprain in that contest, but didn't come out of the game. He's been a key part of the Sixers rotation, so losing Thybulle is going to hurt. Furkan Korkmaz and James Ennis will […]


Davis Bertans Ruled Out for Monday

Washington Wizards forward Davis Bertans (quad) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the New York Knicks. He suffered a right quad strain during the fourth quarter of Saturday's game. The Wizards are already ridiculously banged up in the frontcourt. Ian Mahinmi and Anzejs Pasecniks will be asked to fill in without Bertans on […]


George Hill Could Sit on Sunday

Milwaukee Bucks guard George Hill (thigh) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Indiana Pacers. He's dealing with a right thigh contusion that he suffered during Saturday's game. Donte Divincenzo should benefit the most if Hill doesn't suit up. However, Wesley Matthews (thigh) and Pat Connaughton would see more minutes as well.


Wesley Matthews is Probable for Sunday

Milwaukee Bucks guard/forward Wesley Matthews (thigh) is listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Indiana Pacers. He missed Saturday's game due to a right thigh contusion. It doesn't sound like the issue is too serious, but the Bucks are going to be cautious with their veteran guard. George Hill (thigh) is questionable, so Matthews […]


Gordon Hayward Won't Play on Sunday

Boston Celtics forward Gordon Hayward (foot) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Charlotte Hornets. He's dealing with left foot soreness, but is reportedly making progress. Hayward had a good workout on Sunday and is expected to suit up for Wednesday's game, according to head coach Brad Stevens. Kemba Walker, Jaylen Brown, and […]


Kawhi Leonard Ruled Out on Sunday

Los Angeles Clippers forward Kawhi Leonard (rest) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. It's not surprising to see Leonard sit out the second game of the back-to-back set. Paul George will be asked to carry the load on offense. Lou Williams, Landry Shamet, and possibly Rodney McGruder could see […]


Luka Doncic Might Be Able to Play Thursday

Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic (ankle) reportedly looked good during his pregame workout on Sunday. The Mavs are hopeful that Doncic will be able to get some work in during Tuesday's practice. There's hope that Doncic can play against the Spurs on Thursday. The Mavs aren't going to rush their star player back to the […]


Eric Paschall is Questionable for Monday

Golden State Warriors forward Eric Paschall (hip) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. He tweaked his knee on Friday, but was able to fully practice on Sunday. The MRI on his right knee came back clean, so Paschall should be fine for Monday. Fantasy owners should check back closer to […]

Markieff Morris Sinks Seven Triples Versus Bulls

Detroit Pistons power forward Markieff Morris pulled off a big offensive performance in Saturday's loss to Chicago, racking up a season-high 23 points with seven treys. He shot 7-for-12 from deep and 8-for-19 overall from the field, adding six assists in 37 minutes of action. Blake Griffin (illness) and Christian Wood (knee) both sat out, […]


Andre Drummond Puts Together Another Outstanding Line

Detroit Pistons center Andre Drummond did everything for the team again on Saturday, finishing a 119-107 loss to Chicago with 19 points, 14 rebounds, five steals, three assists, and two blocks. Drummond, who shot 8-for-17 from the field, has now tallied eight straight double-doubles, and he's been a big force defensively by snatching 16 steals […]


Tomas Satoransky Fills Stat Sheet Again In Saturday's Win

Chicago Bulls guard Tomas Satoransky had an action-packed 38 minutes against Detroit on Saturday, finishing a 119-107 win with 16 points, eight rebounds, five assists, and two steals. He had two makes from downtown and finished with good 6-for-11 shooting from the field. Satoransky has now played 30-plus minutes in three straight games, which has […]


Wendell Carter Jr. Posts Double-Double Saturday Night

Chicago Bulls center Wendell Carter Jr. didn't let Andre Drummond's presence bother him in Saturday's matchup against the Pistons, recording his fourth double-double of the month with 12 points and 12 rebounds. He shot a good 4-for-8 from the field and even nailed his only three-pointer of the game. Wendell Carter Jr. doesn't get a […]


Zach LaVine Pushes Bulls Past Pistons With 33-Point Effort

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine scored a game-high 33 points in Saturday's win over Detroit, demonstrating some very good efficiency with his 9-for-15 shooting from the field. He was also outstanding from three-point range with a 5-for-7 effort, adding 10-for-14 at the line. LaVine also had five assists, five rebounds and one steal with five […]


Bradley Beal Scores An Efficient 36 Points Against The Sixers

Washington Wizards shooting guard Bradley Beal scored 36 points in a loss to Philadelphia on Saturday to go along with eight rebounds and six assists. This marks the second consecutive outing of over 30 points for Beal, who shot 13 of 24 from the field, and the third instance over his last three games. He […]


Ben Simmons Posts A Double-Double Against Washington

Philadelphia 76ers point guard Ben Simmons posted an all-around double-double against the Wizards on Saturday, registering 14 points, 11 assists, eight rebounds and four steals. With so much attention focused on what Simmons can't do, a lot of what makes him great falls through the cracks and was on full display in Philly's latest victory. […]


Josh Richardson Drops 21 Points Versus The Wizards

Philadelphia 76ers wing Josh Richardson scored 21 points in a win over Washington to go with three assists and two rebounds. Richardson, who shot an efficient nine of 17 from the field, hadn't passed the 20-point mark since Nov. 25 up in Toronto. Like most on this unique Sixers team, Richardson is still trying to […]


Joel Embiid Posts A Double-Double In Limited Minutes

Philadelphia 76ers center Joel Embiid managed to rack up 21 points, 13 rebounds, three assists and two blocks in a win over the Wizards. Given the MVP-type standards Embiid set for himself before the season, his production has been a bit of a disappointment. His minutes and shot attempts per game are down, leading to […]


Davis Bertans Cools Down From Beyond The Arc Against Philly

Washington Wizards forward Davis Bertans missed all seven of his three-point attempts versus Philly on Saturday to finish with nine points, nine rebounds and three assists. Bertans, who left the game in the fourth quarter due to a right thigh injury, hadn't missed on all of his three-point attempts in a game since Nov. 15, […]
