Jusuf Nurkic (C, DEN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 50% of Yahoo! Leagues ANALYSIS: So, after coming back from a knee procedure, it appears that Jusuf Nurkic's 15-minute cap is going to be raised according to Chris Dempsey of the Denver Post. This is good new for his value, although not so much for his teammate […]

Marco Belinelli (SG/SF, SAC) - NBA Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Short-Term Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 26% of Yahoo! Leagues ANALYSIS: Former San Antonio Spur Marco Belinelli has been thrust into action for the Kings with the injuries to Rajon Rondo, Omri Casspi, and (for a couple days) Ben McLemore. He is making the most of it. Over his last four games, […]

Jeff Withey (C, UTA) - Cheap FanDuel Play on 1/7/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: at HOU, $4,700 ANALYSIS: Last, but certainly not least, my favorite value play of the night. I don't understand how Jeff Withey's price is still below $5,000. He has AVERAGED 29 FD points over his last six contests, which is a baseline of 6x value. He'll probably be very highly owned tonight, and its always […]

Taj Gibson (PF, CHI) - Value Play on FanDuel on 1/7/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs BOS, $5,400 ANALYSIS: Taj Gibson is the only sub $8,000 big man I really feel comfortable rostering tonight. With Joakim Noah still out nursing a shoulder injury, Gibson has had a much larger role within the Bulls front court rotation. Last game against Milwaukee he tallied a double- double (11 points, 14 rebounds) with […]

Paul Millsap (PF, ATL) - Strong FanDuel Play on 1/7/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: at PHI, $8,500 ANALYSIS: With all the money I saved on my guards, I am not hesitating to spend up on Paul Millsap. I don't really like any of the mid price options for power forward, and Millsap always has the potential to be the nights high scorer. In four of his last five […]

Gordon Hayward (SF, UTA) - Upside Play on FanDuel for 1/7/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: at HOU, $7,600 ANALYSIS: If Gordon Hayward is playing on Thursday night, expect to see him in this article.  He's been a little inconsistent of late, but I really like his match up against the Rockets, who boast the fifth worst defense in the NBA. With Alec Burks, Derrick Favors, and Rudy Gobert out, […]

Evan Turner (SF, BOS) - Discounted FanDuel Play on 1/7/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: at CHI, $5,700 ANALYSIS: With Avery Bradley out, the Celtics will be relying on Evan Turner a little bit more over the next few games. Turner is a bit of a Swiss army knife when it comes to fantasy,  having the ability to score, rebound, and dish out assists. With the extra minutes I think […]

Marco Belinelli (SG, SAC) - Value Play on DraftKings 1/7

Marco Belinelli (vs LAL, $4,400) The Sacramento Kings injury list looks almost like a full roster right now, so they will clearly need some of their bench players to pick up the slack and score some points. With an average of 30.9 DKFPPG over his last four games, Belinelli is one of those guys that […]

Jimmy Butler (SG, CHI) - Strong FanDuel Play on 1/7/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs BOS, $8,500 ANALYSIS: Now a lot of people might prefer to spend a little extra and nab James Harden, but because of the discount and the matchup, I prefer Butler here. Straight up Butler has been on fire recently. Over his last four games hes totaled at least 40 FD points, and I'm optimistic […]

Taj Gibson (PF, CHI) and Pau Gasol (C, CHI) - Stack on DraftKings 1/7

Taj Gibson (vs BOS, $5,900) Jimmy Butler has been getting all the highlights, but Gibson has been quietly effective since his insertion in the starting lineup. Against the Celtics, he will face a front court that struggles against players that ball like bullies, which is Gibson in a nutshell. Butler has been playing at a […]

Kent Bazemore (SG, ATL) - Matchup Play on FanDuel on 1/7/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: at PHI, $5,700 ANALYSIS: This is the PERFECT match up for Kent Bazemore. Yes, the 76ers are the perfect match up for a lot of NBA players, but I think Bazemore in particular will flourish tonight. The 76ers are the sixth fastest paced team in the league, and should induce a lot of running and […]

Paul Millsap (PF, ATL) - Big Money Play on DraftKings 1/7

Paul Millsap (at PHI, $8,300) For a little bit more salary relief, look at the second-highest priced option on the board. At 2k cheaper, I’ll gladly continue to utilize the tried, tested and true strategy of picking on the Philadelphia front court. The lowly Sixers give up a ton of offense and defensive boards to […]

Ishmael Smith (PG, PHI) - FanDuel Value Play on 1/7/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs ATL, $6,100 ANALYSIS: Ish Smith has taken over in Philly, and in a big way. He's the only competent point guard on the roster, and it's shown with his gaudy assist totals. Now these aren't Rubio or Rondo assist numbers, but he's tallied at least nine in four of his six games as a […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice - NBA DFS Lineup Picks for 1/7/16

The Thursday slate is rather intriguing. The Sixers and Lakers are both on tap, causing fantasy owners to think heavily on targeting those individual matchups. On the other hand, fantasy owners have employed unique strategies in cash games this season. So unique that they have yours truly contemplating bypassing 50/50s and cash games altogether and […]

Darren Collison (PG, SAC) - Solid FanDuel Play on 1/7/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs LAL, $5,600) ANALYSIS: I only like Collison at this price if Rondo does not play. Right now he's questionable, so definitely keep an eye on that. Collison has shown that when give the opportunity to run the offense he has double digit assist potential. He's done so twice in the last five games, including […]

NBA Daily Fantasy Lineup Picks - FanDuel DFS Basketball Advice for 1/7/16

Tonight is a weird one with only two players priced above $9,000. Although that might dictate your roster a little bit, if you have extra money do not spend it just because you have it. Remember, a winning roster has nothing to do with how close you get to spending all $60,000. In this article, I will […]

Toronto Blue Jays Top MLB Prospects for 2016 Dynasty Leagues

The Toronto Blue Jays had one of the best offenses since the Big Red Machine of the mid-70s. They had All-Star hitters at just about every position and where they didn’t, those hitters were still well above average. Then they went out and added David Price to their only weakness and it appeared that the […]

Karl-Anthony Towns (C, MIN) - Strong FanDuel Play on 1/6/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs DEN, $7,500 ANALYSIS: Towns put up somewhat of a dud against the 76ers in his team's most recent game, but I like him to bounce back against a Denver squad that is hurting in the middle thanks to Faried's injury. In the three games prior to the T-Wolves loss to the Sixers, Towns […]

Serge Ibaka (PF, OKC) - Cheap FanDuel Option on 1/6/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs MEM, $6,500 ANALYSIS: There are quite a few options tonight at power forward that I think are in consideration for both cash and tournament, but I wanted to give you a guy who's a  little less pricey than most and still provides a nice floor. In Kevin Durant's absence the other night, Ibaka […]

T.J. Warren (SF, CHA) - FanDuel Value Play on 1/6/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs CHA, $4,300 ANALYSIS: With all the expensive plays I've suggested tonight, I wanted to find a value play I could confidently back. That said, my confidence levels up if Nicolas Batum is unavailable for the Hornets tonight. Warren has seen his usage and production increase greatly since the absence of Eric Bledsoe due […]

DeMar DeRozan (SG, TOR) - High Floor FanDuel Play on 1/6/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: at BKN, $8,200 ANALYSIS: There is quite a bit of value available at shooting guard tonight, but not enough consistency among them for me to warrant cash game consideration - I'll save those guys for tournament play. DeMar draws a great matchup against Brooklyn. Honestly, rostering at any position against Brooklyn is a favorable […]
