JaMychal Green (PF/C, DEN): Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 16% of leagues ANALYSIS: The Nuggets lost Jerami Grant this past offseason and while JaMychal Green is far from his level of play, the truth is that he's doing more than enough to be considered a viable player for slightly-deep-league fantasy GMs. Green has taken on a […]

Nickeil Alexander-Walker (SG/SF, OKC): Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 12% of leagues ANALYSIS: Nickeil Alexander-Walker has done it all this season: he was extended (fifth-year option picked by NOLA) prior to the start of the year, then proceeded to play seven games coming off the bench, and finally he started at the point this past Wednesday... […]

Doug McDermott (SF/PF, IND): Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 10% of leagues ANALYSIS: I was wrong about Indiana and its outlook for the 2021 season. I thought they'd drop a little bit in the standings, and the fact that they lost T.J. Warren a while ago only reinforced my thoughts. How wrong I was... Indiana is […]

Royce O'Neale (SF/PF, UTA): Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 22% of leagues ANALYSIS: Somebody explains to me how Royce O'Neale, Utah Jazz starter in all 11 games through Thursday. Yes, I know, Royce is not a world-beater, but again, he's starting games and playing north of 31 MPG, folks! Where can you find such a guy in […]

Paul Millsap (PF/C, DEN): Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 40% of leagues ANALYSIS: That Paul Millsap is more cooked than not, we all know. With that out of the way, though, Millsap is still a starter for this Nuggets squad, is logging 23.9 MPG this season, using a reasonably healthy 18.3 percent of offensive possessions, and averaging […]

Hamidou Diallo (SG/SF, OKC): Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 41% of leagues ANALYSIS: While Hamidou Diallo cooled off a bit against the Lakers on Wednesday, the truth is that the Thunder forward has had quite a week going back to Jan. 8th and that game against the Knicks in which Hami logged a season-high 29 minutes […]

Shake Milton (PG/SG, PHI): Week 5 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 33% of leagues ANALYSIS: I can't build a big case for Milton based on his recent play. Milton was one of Philly's COVID-affected players this past week, so he missed every game the team played from Jan. 7th to Thursday's match against Miami, limiting his minutes to […]

You Paid What?! Overvalued Players in Auctions

Assuming the 2021 MLB season starts on time, we are on the precipice of fantasy baseball draft season. Spring Training will get underway next month, at which point, drafts roll out in full force. We aren't there quite yet, which makes sense. Many of the biggest free agents remain unsigned; the league is unsure of […]

Fantasy Basketball Buy, Sell, or Hold: CJ McCollum and Rudy Gobert

LPL & LCK DFS Picks for 1/16: DraftKings & FanDuel League of Legends Daily Fantasy

A stunning comeback from DWG saved the day for some folks. Not me. I faded all LCK matches yesterday, eschewing the safety for the more exciting upside of the LPL matchups. Too many hedge lineups and not enough eStar. Felt like I had a pretty good grasp of the slate with the LCK options being […]

NBA DFS Prop Picks for Friday (1/15/21) - Monkey Knife Fight

After a league-altering trade trade that sent James Harden to the Nets, all the attention has been focused on what is going to happen to the Rockets' and Nets' rotations.

LPL & LCK DFS Picks for 1/15: DraftKings & FanDuel League of Legends Daily Fantasy

JDG turned the slate on its head with a huge performance against BLG. Minus the incredible inting by BLG, I nailed that one JDG could out team fight my BLG on their way to victory. SNG and RNG was an L for me and a bizarre series overall as both teams opted into scaling options […]
