Jalen Smith - Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Rankings, NBA DFS Lineup Picks

Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups and Streamers for Week 14: 1/19 -1/25

Welcome back, readers, to another edition of my waiver wire piece. You'll notice it's out one day sooner, which I hope helps you get a leg on your league mates in terms of grabbing the best available players and planning out your weekly adds. We have a beautifully balanced schedule this week with between seven […]


Donovan Mitchell - NBA DFS Lineup Picks, Daily Fantasy Basketball

Daily Fantasy Basketball: NBA DFS Picks for DraftKings, FanDuel (1/16/26)

Welcome back, RotoBallers! Tonight, we have a 6-game slate of NBA games, highlighted by the doubleheader on ESPN of Cavaliers at Sixers, and Timberwolves at Rockets. Note that both DraftKings and FanDuel are both not including the Timberwolves at Rockets and Wizards at Kings on the main slate. For this article, I will only feature […]

Dynasty Rankings for Fantasy Basketball: January 2026 Updates

As we near the halfway point of the 2025-2026 NBA season, I’ve been reflecting on my dynasty rankings from the beginning of the season and even as far back as early 2025. Things continue to evolve around the NBA on a season-to-season basis rapidly, and this season in particular has been full of surprises. Many […]

The Fantasy Basketball Cut List: Players to Drop or Hold - Week 13

Welcome back to the Cut List, which should be a weekly feature here at RotoBaller for the remainder of the fantasy basketball season! I've received a lot of good feedback on this piece this season, and some readers have told me, "Thanks for giving me that extra nudge to cut Player X loose, I had […]


Jaylen Brown - NBA DFS Lineup Picks, Fantasy Basketball Rankings

Daily NBA Picks - Top Player Props and NBA Odds (1/15/26)

Welcome back to another edition of RotoBaller's NBA Props! There are eight games on the schedule today, including an afternoon game in Germany. Key injuries of note on today's slate include: Devin Booker (questionable), Jaime Jaquez (questionable), Davion Mitchell (doubtful), Deni Avdija (doubtful), and Austin Reaves (out). There are always a lot of more injury […]


Kawhi Leonard, Los Angeles Clippers

Daily Fantasy Basketball: NBA DFS Picks for DraftKings, FanDuel (1/14/26)

The NBA rolls on with a seven-game Wednesday slate! Uncharacteristically, DraftKings has decided to include the super late games, giving it the same contest set as FanDuel. That's good for us, as it means we can utilize the Clippers and Knicks as potential late swap targets. New York is third in offensive efficiency, and the […]


Donovan Mitchell - NBA DFS Lineup Picks, Daily Fantasy Basketball

NBA DFS: Top Daily Fantasy Expert Picks for DraftKings, FanDuel (1/12/26)

The NBA continues a busy start to 2026 with a six-game schedule on Monday night. Both DraftKings and FanDuel feature the first four of those games on the main slate, and the two West Coast games as part of separate late-night contests. In this post, we'll focus on the four games on the main slate, […]


Jake LaRavia - Fantasy Basketball Rankings, NBA DFS Lineup Picks

Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups and Streamers for Week 13: 1/12/26 -1/18/26

It's an absolute "streamers' dream" this week as we have no fewer than six (and no more than nine) games every day in Week 13. We do have some teams on two-game weeks to avoid, and one team with the coveted five-game week as well. As a reminder, I have been using the 25% rostered […]


Jalen Williams - NBA DFS Lineup Picks, Fantasy Basketball

NBA DFS: Top Daily Fantasy Expert Picks for DraftKings, FanDuel (1/9/26)

It finally happened! Both FanDuel and DraftKings are running the same main NBA DFS slate tonight, which features the first seven games of the evening and leaves off the three late games on the West Coast. This is a dream come true for content creators and people who cover the league like me! I'm filling […]


Matas Buzelis - Fantasy Basketball Rankings, NBA DFS Lineup Picks

Daily NBA Prop Bets - Top Player Props, Value Picks, and Quick Odds (1/8/26)

Welcome back to another edition of RotoBaller's NBA Props! We've got a smaller, four-game slate on the schedule tonight. However, with every game featuring a total above 230 points and not a single spread above eight points, there should still be some value on player props. Three teams (Charlotte, Chicago, and Utah) are on the […]


Bennedict Mathurin - NBA DFS Picks, Daily Fantasy Basketball Rankings, Injury News - rotoballer icon

The Fantasy Basketball Cut List - Who to Drop or Hold After Week 11

As injuries continue to pile up across the league, managing a fantasy basketball roster has become increasingly more difficult this season, and tough decisions have to be made. Most leagues only allow two or three IL spots for injured players, so managers have to choose wisely as to which injured players they hold and which […]


NBA Player Props: Best Bets and Odds for Wednesday, 1/7/26

Today brings the biggest NBA slate of games that we've had in a few weeks, with 12 games on the docket in the Association! I have to give a big shout-out to my guy, Keith Eyster, who has been giving out some great props all season long for us at RotoBaller. The pressure is on […]


Anthony Black - Fantasy Basketball Rankings, DFS Picks, NBA Injury News

Daily NBA Prop Bets - Top Player Props, Value Picks, and Quick Odds (1/6/26)

Welcome back to another edition of RotoBaller's NBA Props! We have an exciting six-game offering on the schedule tonight, with every game featuring a total above 230 points and not a single spread above eight points. There are plenty of impactful injuries to navigate, with Donovan Mitchell being out for Cleveland the most notable absence […]


Nikola Jovic - Fantasy Basketball Rankings, NBA DFS Lineup Picks

Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups and Streamers for Week 12: 1/5/25 -1/11/26

As we welcome in the new year and close in on the halfway point of the fantasy basketball season, I just want to thank every one of you for reading this column and interacting with me on social media. Covering fantasy hoops is something I love to do, and the amount of support that I […]


Jaylen Brown - NBA DFS Lineup Picks, Fantasy Basketball Rankings

NBA DFS: Top Daily Fantasy Expert Picks for DraftKings, FanDuel (1/5/26)

Welcome back, RotoBallers! Tonight, we have a smaller eight-game slate on deck for us. Three of those games are on Peacock for us to enjoy! FanDuel has all eight games, whereas DraftKings has opted to include the first six games and exclude the Warriors/Clippers and Jazz/Trail Blazers from their slates. This article will primarily focus […]


Jalen Johnson - NBA DFS Lineup Picks, Daily Fantasy Basketball Rankings

NBA DFS: Top Daily Fantasy Expert Picks for DraftKings, FanDuel (1/2/26)

Welcome back, and Happy New Year, RotoBallers! Tonight, we have a 10-game slate, highlighted by the doubleheader on Prime Video of the shorthanded Nuggets at Cavaliers, followed by the Thunder at Warriors. Note that DraftKings is not including the Kings-Suns, Thunder-Warriors, and Grizzlies-Lakers games on the main slate, while FanDuel will. For this article, I […]


Tyrese Maxey - NBA DFS Picks, Daily Fantasy Basketball Rankings, Injury News

Daily NBA Prop Bets - Top Player Props, Value Picks, and Quick Odds (1/1/26)

Happy New Year! Let's get 2026 started right with another edition of RotoBaller's NBA Props! The Association has a five-game slate for us on this fine New Year's Day, and there are plenty of stars in action. Kevin Durant and the Rockets get the evening started in Brooklyn against the Nets. Then, Cade Cunningham and […]

The Fantasy Basketball Cut List - Who to Drop or Hold After Week 10

It's New Year's Eve, and while the rest of the world is already thinking about their resolutions for 2026, I'm ready to cut the dead weight from my roster to get a fresh start in the new year. That's right, the Cut List is back after a short hiatus, and I have a whole new […]


NBA DFS: Top Daily Fantasy Expert Picks for DraftKings, FanDuel (12/31/25)

Happy New Year, RotoBallers! I'm pleased to bring you the last DFS NBA article of 2025, and hope that it's a lucrative one. My biggest DFS hit came on New Year's Eve a few years ago, so I'm hoping the narrative holds for tonight. This article will focus on the main DFS slate starting at […]


Cade Cunningham - Fantasy Basketball Rankings, Draft Sleepers, Waiver Wire Pickups

Daily NBA Prop Bets - Top Player Props, Value Picks, and Quick Odds (12/30/25)

Welcome back to another edition of RotoBaller's NBA Props! We have a smaller four-game slate this evening, but there is still plenty to get excited about.
