DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (11/13/19): NBA DFS Lineups

The Portland Trail Blazers, Philadelphia 76ers and Los Angeles Lakers are all on the second night of back-to-back sets in Wednesday's slate. We also have the Los Angeles Clippers entering the first night of a back-to-back. Paul George (shoulder) is reported to make his return either Wednesday or Thursday. It is most likely that Kawhi […]

Marcus Morris Struggles With efficiency In Chicago

New York Knicks forward Marcus Morris finished with 22 points and nine rebounds in the loss to the Bulls. Despite this, he struggled with efficiency for most of this one as he shot 6-for-17 from the field and 3-for-9 from beyond the arc while coughing up six turnovers. David Fizdale relies heavily on Morris for […]

Wendell Carter Jr. Drops Double-Double Against The Knicks

Chicago Bulls center Wendell Carter Jr. was impressive yet again, finishing with 17 points and 12 rebounds on 63.6 percent shooting in the win over the Knicks on Tuesday night. The sophomore had seven double-doubles across 44 injury-riddled games as a rookie, but this one marks his seventh already in the young season. A forgotten […]

Zach LaVine Rights The Ship Against New York

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine finished with 25 points on 9-for-19 shooting from the field and 3-for-8 shooting from beyond the arc during the win over the Knicks on Tuesday night. LaVine had scored a combined 22 points in his previous two games, and his overall scoring average is down over four points compared to […]

RJ Barrett Posts All-Around Statline In The Windy City

New York Knicks guard/forward RJ Barrett finished off another loss with one of his better all-around outings by producing 21 points, nine assists, and six rebounds against the Bulls. This was only Barrett's second time shooting at least 50 percent from the field as he went 8-for-16 on the night. As a rookie with a […]

Coby White Incinerates Knicks With Hot Shooting

Chicago Bulls guard Coby White seemingly single-handedly took care of the Knicks on Tuesday night by dropping 27 points, with 23 of those coming in the fourth quarter. The rookie floor-general, who hasn't hit more than four three-pointers in any game this season, tortured the Knicks by dropping seven. Having struggled with his shooting before […]

Kevin Huerter To Miss Remainder Of Tuesday’s Contest

Atlanta Hawks shooting guard Kevin Huerter has been ruled out for the rest of Tuesday’s game against the Denver Nuggets due to left shoulder pain. Huerter logged 16 minutes prior to his departure and finished a perfect 4-for-4 from the field, accruing 11 points to go along with four rebounds and three assists. Without Huerter […]

Rodney Hood To Miss Tuesday’s Game

Portland Trail Blazers shooting guard/small forward Rodney Hood has been ruled out for Tuesday’s contest against the Sacramento Kings due to back spasms. Forward Mario Hezonja will enter the starting five in his stead and figures to be a solid DFS play for those that can still fit him into lineups. Hood, who is averaging […]

Diontae Johnson A Desperation Flex Option In Week 11

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Diontae Johnson has put together a solid rookie campaign with 30 receptions, over 360 yards, and three touchdowns. In Thursday night's game against the Cleveland Browns, Johnson will work to stay in the sights of quarterback Mason Rudolph. However, Rudolph has been favoring shorter routes recently, which puts Johnson at a […]

Malik Beasley Ruled Out For Tuesday’s Game

Denver Nuggets shooting guard Malik Beasley will be sidelined for Tuesday’s contest against the Atlanta Hawks due to an illness. Beasley, who has seen his minutes crater over the team’s previous two contests, has not followed up his breakout campaign with any notable fantasy efforts during the 2019-20 campaign. His absence doesn’t immediately lend credence […]

James Washington Looks To Continue Strong Play

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver James Washington is coming off the best consecutive performances of his young career. He's hauled in 10 of 11 targets for 159 yards and a touchdown in the last two games, and he seems to be redeveloping a connection with his college quarterback Mason Rudolph. He'll face off against the Cleveland […]

JuJu Smith-Schuster Is Touchdown Dependent In Week 11

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster has just 12 receptions for 170 yards and one touchdown in his last four games. With a Thursday Night football matchup against the Cleveland Browns in Week 11, Smith-Schuster shouldn't be considered the reliable option many drafted him as. Quarterback Mason Rudolph has been favoring shorter to intermediate routes, […]

Jaylen Samuels Not An Option Against Browns

Pittsburgh Steelers running back Jaylen Samuels steps away from the lead-back role with the expected return of James Conner (shoulder) in Week 11 against the Cleveland Browns. Over the last two games, Samuels turned 38 touches into just 123 yards and no touchdowns, so it's clear he's not suited for four-down work in this offense. […]

James Conner A Full Practice Participant

Pittsburgh Steelers running back James Conner (shoulder) was a full participant in Tuesday's practice, all but confirming he's good to go for Thursday night's road game against the Cleveland Browns. After missing the last two contests, Conner has been missed on offense, as the Steelers have combined for just 132 rushing yards in that span. […]

Mason Rudolph Looks To Continue Growth In Week 11

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Mason Rudolph gets a favorable matchup for Thursday Night Football when the Steelers travel to take on the Cleveland Browns. Rudolph has been gaining more confidence with each start, and his 242 yards passing last week were the second highest of his short career. Against the Browns, the second-year signal caller faces […]

Matt Breida Seeking Second Opinion

San Francisco 49ers running back Matt Breida (ankle) will seek a second opinion on his reaggravated sprained ankle. Breida only accrued 25 yards on 12 touches in Week 10 before exiting in the second half. Breida is no stranger to playing injured but NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero believes he could “miss some time to let […]

George Kittle, Emmanuel Sanders Considered Day-To-Day

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle (knee, ankle) and wide receiver Emmanuel Sanders (ribs) are considered day-to-day and shaping up as game-time decisions in Week 11 against the Arizona Cardinals. Kittle and Sanders figure to practice minimally this week, if any. Kittle missed Week 10 and his injury appears serious but head coach Kyle […]

Grayson Allen Not Likely To Make Return Wednesday

Memphis Grizzlies point/shooting guard Grayson Allen is still dealing with the effects of a sore left ankle and is unlikely to participate Wednesday versus the Charlotte Hornets. Allen, who has earned a doubtful designation, has missed each of his team’s previous five games. In his first season with the Grizzlies, the second-year guard has averaged […]

Shabazz Napier, Jordan Bell Both Doubtful For Wednesday

Minnesota Timberwolves point/shooting guard Shabazz Napier and power forward/center Jordan Bell are both unlikely to participate in Wednesday’s contest versus the San Antonio Spurs with each man earning a doubtful designation. Both have missed Minnesota’s past four games, as Napier deals with a strained right hamstring and Bell battles a strained right shoulder. With fellow […]

Daniel Theis Unlikely To Play Wednesday Due To Injury

Boston Celtics power forward/center Daniel Theis has been tagged as doubtful to participate in Wednesday’s game against the Washington Wizards due to a sprained pinky finger on his right hand. Without Theis in the mix, Enes Kanter can be expected to pick up the slack, although Robert Williams will also likely absorb some minutes. Theis […]

Jeff Teague Has Status Up In Air For Wednesday’s Game

Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Jeff Teague has missed each of his team’s previous four games due to an illness and he is in danger of missing his fifth straight Wednesday versus the San Antonio Spurs. Teague has officially been given a questionable designation, with Jarrett Culver set to continue to fill in should the team’s […]

Paul George Officially Tagged As Questionable For Wednesday

Los Angeles Clippers small/power forward Paul George could potentially make his season debut during Wednesday’s contest against the Houston Rockets, where he is tagged as questionable due to the shoulder ailments that have kept him out to this point in 2019-20. It’s unlikely that Los Angeles would clear George to play and not give him […]

Trey Burke Ruled Out For Tuesday’s Contest

Philadelphia 76ers point guard Trey Burke will miss Tuesday’s game against the Cleveland Cavaliers due to left calf tightness. Burke, who is celebrating his 27th birthday Tuesday, has found a role over the past two games as a member of the Sixers’ reserve group, although how long that lasts with Ben Simmons back in the […]

Shake Milton Cleared To Make Return For Tuesday’s Game

Philadelphia 76ers point/shooting guard Shake Milton had previously been ruled out for Tuesday’s contest against the Cleveland Cavaliers, but has now been given the green light to take the court for the first time since Oct. 28. Without Trey Burke available off the bench, Milton will likely see some run, although coming off a six-game […]

Tyler Herro To Miss Tuesday’s Contest

Miami Heat shooting guard Tyler Herro will sit out Tuesday’s game against the Detroit Pistons due to a sprained left ankle. Herro will be missing the first professional contest of his career, paving the way for Kendrick Nunn and Goran Dragic to see increased minutes in the backcourt, which should make them highly desirable DFS […]

OG Anunoby Ruled Out for Wednesday

Toronto Raptors forward OG Anunoby (eye) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. Anunoby met with an eye specialist on Tuesday, so his timetable will be known in a few days. Rondae Hollis-Jefferson should see more minutes coming his way until Anunoby is back in the lineup. Jefferson could be […]

Ben Simmons is Back on Tuesday

Philadelphia 76ers guard Ben Simmons (shoulder) is back in the starting five for Tuesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers. Simmons was expected to miss three games after injuring his shoulder. However, he'll miss only two games and be back for this one without any limits. Raul Neto will head back to the bench and lose […]

Dennis Smith Jr. is Available for Tuesday

New York Knicks guard Dennis Smith Jr. (personal) will be available for Tuesday's game against the Chicago Bulls. He hasn't played with the team since October 26 due to a death in the family. Head coach David Fizdale has not announced the starting five, but Frank Ntilikina has been playing well at point guard. He's […]
