Bobby Portis Secures A Double-Double In The Road Win

New York Knicks power forward/center Bobby Portis posted a solid line in the four-point win over the Mavericks on Friday. Portis registered a double-double with 14 points and 12 rebounds while chipping in a make from three, one assist and a steal in 24 minutes of action. Portis is as inconsistent as they come but […]

Marcus Morris Stays Hot In Friday's Win

New York Knicks forward Marcus Morris continued his hot streak on Friday when his club took down the Mavericks by a score of 106-102. Morris scored a season-high 29 points on 10 of 22 shooting overall and added four triples with nine rebounds, three assists and a steal across a team-high 41 minutes of action. […]

Red Zone Usage Risers and Fallers - Week 10

We are now past the mid-point of the season, meaning it is time to get your roster in shape for a playoff push and championship run. As fantasy owners, we know that not all touches are equal. A touch in the red zone has an increased chance of scoring a touchdown, so those touches are […]

RotoBaller has assembled a list of daily NBA injury updates to help you prepare both your seasonal and daily fantasy basketball (DFS) lineups, every day of the NBA season. Below is our updated list of injured NBA players for November 9th, 2019. Only players on teams that are scheduled to play today will appear below […]

Alex Erickson A Risky Option Against Ravens

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Alex Erickson has played relatively well over his last three games, compiling 18 catches (27 targets) for 281 yards. Despite A.J. Green (ankle) still out of the mix, Erickson will undoubtedly continue to fight for looks with fellow wideouts Tyler Boyd and Auden Tate, while also building a rapport with rookie […]

Auden Tate Has A High Upside In Week 10

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Auden Tate will continue to benefit from the absence of A.J. Green (ankle) in Week 10. Though Tyler Boyd is still the official No. 1 wideout on the team's depth chart, Tate will surely pose a threat for attention from new quarterback Ryan Finley. The 22-year-old is averaging just over eight […]

Tyler Boyd Still No. 1 Option Against Ravens

Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd will continue to be the No. 1 option for a team that will still be without A.J. Green (ankle) moving forward. Though Boyd will continue to fight for targets with Auden Tate and Alex Erickson, he received plenty of attention from quarterback Andy Dalton before the team's Week 9 […]

Joe Mixon In Search Of First Rushing Touchdown

Cincinnati Bengals running back Joe Mixon has yet to run in a touchdown in 2019. Though he has three scores through the air on the year, he continues to disappoint while playing behind arguably the worst offensive line in the league. With A.J. Green (ankle) still out of the equation, the pressure will be on […]

Ryan Finley Ready For First Start

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Ryan Finley will make his first career start against the Ravens on Sunday. The rookie handled himself relatively well during the preseason, compiling a 73.4 completion percentage to go along with three touchdowns and a pick in three appearances. Though the upside is there, fantasy managers should expect the worst and hope […]

D.J. Moore With A Tough Matchup In Week 10

Carolina Panthers wide receiver D.J. Moore has a tough task ahead on Sunday against a Packers Defense that is allowing a ninth-best 30.12 fantasy points per game to opposing wideouts this season. Nonetheless, Moore has been active as of late, compiling 25 receptions for 303 yards on 37 targets over his last four outings, and […]

Alec Burks Drops 18 Points Off Bench In Loss

Golden State Warriors point/shooting guard Alec Burks finished second on his club in scoring during Friday’s overtime defeat to the Minnesota Timberwolves, going for 18 points on 5-for-10 shooting off the bench. Burks continues to pace Golden State’s second unit with injuries severely hampering the roster, as he also added nine rebounds and two blocks […]

Robert Covington Adds Five Steals To Double-Double Performance

Minnesota Timberwolves small/power forward Robert Covington did not have a stellar night shooting the ball (5-for-15 overall, 2-for-10 from deep), but he did manage to notch his second double-double of the season with 17 points and 11 rebounds to his credit. In addition, he was a menace on the defensive end of the floor as […]

Karl-Anthony Towns Posts Double-Double In Overtime Win

Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns delivered a 20-point, 14-rebound double-double during Friday’s overtime victory against the Golden State Warriors. Minnesota’s star center has opened the year with six consecutive outings with multiple made threes as Towns knocked down two more Friday, in addition to the four assists that he added across his 36 minutes. He […]

D'Angelo Russell Goes For Career-High 52 Points In Defeat

If Friday’s contest is any indication, the remainder of the 2019-20 season is going to be an exciting one for D'Angelo Russell from a personal standpoint. In his first game back after a three-contest absence due to injury, Russell’s usage reached absurd proportions, finishing with a career-high 52 points on 19-for-37 shooting, including going 7-for-17 […]

Andrew Wiggins Notches 40 Points During Victory

Minnesota Timberwolves shooting guard/small forward Andrew Wiggins was vital to his team’s win over the Golden State Warriors on Friday, having forced overtime with a bucket in the waning seconds of regulation, in addition to burying the clinching three in overtime. Overall, Wiggins finished with 40 points on 17-for-33 shooting across 45 minutes. With the […]

Gerald Everett A Low-End TE1

Los Angeles Rams tight end Gerald Everett looks to shake off some spotty play in a good matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Everett is the 11th-ranked tight end in point-per-reception leagues over the last five weeks. However, two of the last three games have been clunkers. The Steelers yield 6.5 catches for 62.8 yards and […]

Rams Defense Has Iffy Outlook

The Los Angeles Rams Defense doesn't have a great matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Steelers are conservative on offense, and they have just allowed four sacks and six turnovers the last four games. That doesn't give the Rams a lot of upside in the matchup, and they're a barebones play if a one-week play […]

Robert Woods A Dicey Play

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Robert Woods is a bit of an enigma. He had 13 catches for 164 yards in Week 4. Since then, he has 12 catches for 164 yards in four games. The Pittsburgh Steelers are a midrange matchup, and the Rams are without receiver Brandin Cooks (concussion). Woods will be relied […]

Cooper Kupp Looks To Keep Rolling

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Cooper Kupp answered a couple of "meh" weeks with a 220-yard performance last week. Kupp has two touchdowns in the last four games. He has a midrange draw against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 10. They allowed an average of 11.3 catches for 133.8 yards and 1.3 touchdowns per game […]

Darrell Henderson Shouldn't See Lineups

Los Angeles Rams running back Darrell Henderson falls back with the return of Malcolm Brown (ankle) this week. Henderson and Brown should share the work behind starter Todd Gurley. Henderson is worth a spot on your roster if you have room. He could provide insurance for Gurley or become depth should another injury arise. However, […]

Todd Gurley Has Tough Draw

Los Angeles Rams running back Todd Gurley continues to find ways to contribute most weeks, and his six total touchdowns over the last four games have been the remedy. The problem is that his receiving numbers are way down, and he's only averaging 3.9 yards per carry. Those TDs are keeping him afloat, and it's […]

Malcolm Brown Ready

Los Angeles Rams running back Malcolm Brown (ankle) practiced in full Thursday and Friday, and he's ready to return in Week 10. Rookie Darrell Henderson didn't do enough in Brown's absence to usurp him as starting running back Todd Gurley's backup. Brown and Henderson will likely share the duties to a degree, which makes both […]

Jared Goff Worth The Play

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Jared Goff has been inconsistent over the last four games, but he has posted 278.3 passing yards per game. He only has five touchdowns in the stretch, which has contributed to him falling out of the top 20 during the period. The Rams have a midrange matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers […]

Kyle Lowry, Serge Ibaka Ruled Out Due To Injury

Toronto Raptors point guard Kyle Lowry and power forward/center Serge Ibaka have both been sidelined for the remainder of Friday’s contest versus the New Orleans Pelicans due to respective injuries. Lowry is dealing with a left thumb sprain, while Ibaka has a sprained right ankle. Norman Powell was on the floor to open the second […]

Avery Bradley Will Return Friday After One-Game Absence

Los Angeles Lakers shooting guard Avery Bradley has been cleared to suit up during Friday’s contest against the Miami Heat. Bradley, who missed his team’s previous outing due to a lower right leg bruise, has scored in double digits in each of his last three contests. While he provides little else from a categories perspective, […]

Budda Baker Has Upside

Arizona Cardinals safety Budda Baker has quietly been a top-10 defensive back over the last five weeks. He had 27 total tackles the last two games, and he'll have a chance for more against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Bucs complete a lot of passes, and they average the fifth-most fantasy points allowed to DBs […]

Cardinals Defense A Streaming Option

The Arizona Cardinals Defense is worth consideration as a one-week play against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Bucs throw the ball pretty well, but they turn the ball over and allow sacks. The Buccaneers allowed 4.5 sacks, 1.3 lost fumbles and 1.8 interceptions per game over the stretch. The Cardinals haven't been world beaters as […]

Chandler Jones A Flex Play

Arizona Cardinals linebacker Chandler Jones has been fire and ice the last five weeks. He has 14 total tackles and 6.5 sacks during that stretch, but the problem is five tackles and four sacks came in one game. Lucky for him, though, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers have allowed 18 sacks in the last four games. […]

Zane Gonzalez A Top-Flight Play

Arizona Cardinals kicker Zane Gonzalez might win you a round of trivia if the question were: "Who is the highest-scoring kicker in fantasy the last five weeks?" It is indeed Gonzalez. He booted 12-for-13 in field goals and nailed all 11 extra-point attempts. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers provide a good matchup for him as they […]

Shabazz Napier To Miss Friday’s Contest

Minnesota Timberwolves point guard Shabazz Napier will be held out of Friday’s game against the Golden State Warriors due a hamstring injury that has cost him each of his team’s past two outings. With both Napier and Jeff Teague (illness) sidelined, the team will have to get creative at point guard again with Andrew Wiggins […]
