Eric Bledsoe's First-Round DFS Preview

Milwaukee Bucks point guard Eric Bledsoe seems to be heading towards the playoffs in great form. He had only a six-point outing in the final regular season game of the year, but that was due to his minutes being extremely limited. Bledsoe had just posted his first triple-double of the season in the game before […]

Terry Rozier's First-Round DFS Preview

Boston Celtics point guard Terry Rozier looks likely to keep slumping at the start of the playoffs against the Milwaukee Bucks. Rozier impressed this season, putting together a career-year while coming mostly off the bench, but he had a miserable run to finish off regular season play. He's shot just 26.3 percent this month, averaging […]

Kyle Lowry's First-Round DFS Preview

Toronto Raptors point guard Kyle Lowry will look to make up for his struggles against the Washington Wizards during the regular season in this year's first-round matchup against the team. Lowry, who averaged 16.2 points, 5.6 rebounds and 6.9 assists per game on 42.7 percent shooting and 39.9 percent three-point shooting this year, saw a […]

Stephen Curry Expects To Return For Second Round

Golden State Warriors point guard Stephen Curry (knee) is targeting the Western Conference semifinals for his return from a sprained MCL, Yahoo's Shams Charania reported on Friday. This would mean that the Warriors will be without their star for the entirety of their first-round series against the San Antonio Spurs. The team has struggled since Curry […]

Dejounte Murray's First-Round DFS Preview

San Antonio Spurs point guard Dejounte Murray was a strong defensive presence during the regular season, averaging 5.7 rebounds and 1.2 steals per game for the Spurs. In three games, two of them as a starter, against the Warriors this season, Murray averaged 6.3 rebounds, one steal and nine points per game. Murray has upside […]

Patty Mills' First-Round DFS Preview

San Antonio Spurs guard Patty Mills struggled in four games against the Golden State Warriors during the 2017-2018 NBA regular season, scoring just 8.3 points per game over that sample on 30.8 percent shooting. On the season as a whole, Mills scored 10 points per game on 41.1 percent shooting. It's hard to trust Mills […]

Darren Collison's First-Round DFS Preview

Indiana Pacers point guard Darren Collison is a feared man by Cleveland's head coach Tyronn Lue. "He's hurt us this year," Lue has said of Collison ahead of the team's meeting in the playoffs first-round matchup. "He's been a tough guy for us to cover." The Cavs haven't been the only team struggling to cover […]

Victor Oladipo's First-Round DFS Preview

Indiana Pacers guard Victor Oladipo will be looking to carry on his career year in the playoffs after averaging 23.1 points per game with 5.2 rebounds, 4.3 assists and 2.4 steals during the regular season. He'll be the first option for the Pacers against the defensively-challenged Cavs and don't be surprised if he even triples […]

George Hill's First-Round DFS Preview

Cleveland Cavaliers point guard George Hill will have something to prove in the NBA playoffs first-round matchup against the Indiana Pacers. The Indianapolis native played five seasons for the Pacers before being traded in the 2016 offseason after shooting postseason career-highs 56.1 percent from the field and 48.1 percent from downtown in a tight seven-game […]

Damian Lillard's First-Round DFS Preview

Portland Trail Blazers point guard Damian Lillard had his best fantasy season to date, finishing as a top-10 player in most formats. Lillard will be matched up against a pesky Rajon Rondo for most of the series against the New Orleans Pelicans, and Dame has actually kept up roughly his season averages in their four […]

Rajon Rondo's First-Round DFS Preview

New Orleans Pelicans point guard Rajon Rondo finished off the regular season on a strong note, averaging 12.0 points, an elite 13.3 assists and 4.3 rebounds to go along 2.7 steals a night on 53.3 percent from the field over his last three games. Rondo has struggled mightily against the Portland Trail Blazers this season […]

Jrue Holiday's First-Round DFS Preview

New Orleans Pelicans point guard/shooting guard Jrue Holiday is a good play when he matches up against the potent back court of the Portland Trail Blazers' Damian Lillard and C.J. McCollum. Holiday's numbers against the Blazers have a slight bump overall, but the main jump in numbers comes from his assists, which increase from 6.0 a […]

Jeff Teague's First-Round DFS Preview

Minnesota Timberwolves guard Jeff Teague has played well against the Rockets all season. Teague is averaging 18 points per game, his fifth best output against any team this year. He's also averaging 6.5 assists, five rebounds and shooting an efficient 54 percent from the field and 45 percent from beyond the arc over four meetings […]

Ricky Rubio Plays Well Against Portland

Utah Jazz point guard Ricky Rubio had a decent outing to finish the regular season, scoring 17 points on 5-for-12 shooting with five rebounds and five assists in 24 minutes against the Blazers. Rubio will amazingly see only his first NBA postseason action this year, even though he seems to have been around forever. He's […]

Donovan Mitchell Shoots Poorly In Regular Season Finale

Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell couldn't cap off his amazing rookie campaign with a bang, as his shot simply wasn't there Wednesday night against Portland. He failed to make at least 30 percent of his shots for the first time since March 9, finishing 6-for-23 from the field and 1-for-8 from downtown for 17 points. […]

Damian Lillard Scores 36 Points Versus Jazz

Portland Trail Blazers point guard Damian Lillard went off for 36 points in 37 minutes on Wednesday against the Jazz, shooting 13-for-25 from the field and nailing four of 10 attempts from deep. He also had his first game with double-digit assists since March 30. Lillard is heading to the playoffs on fire, as he's […]

Josh Hart Leads Lakers To Victory Versus Clippers

Los Angeles Lakers guard Josh Hart made sure that the team wouldn't end the 2017-18 season on a losing note, scoring a career-high 30 points in a 115-100 win over the Clippers. He made seven of nine attempts from downtown while shooting 9-for-15 overall from the field. Hart also had five rebounds, five assists and […]

D'Angelo Russell Quiet In Loss

Brooklyn Nets guard D'Angelo Russell played just 23 minutes in his team's 13-point loss to the Boston Celtics. Russell managed just 11 points on 5-for-12 shooting while knocking down one of five attempts from deep and managed three assists and a single steal on the night. Russell had a rather disappointing season with high hopes […]

Malcolm Brogdon Scores 13 Points In Second Game Back

Milwaukee Bucks point guard Malcolm Brogdon scored 13 points with two rebounds and two assists in his second game back from a quadriceps injury. He got 18 minutes Wednesday and the Bucks are slowly bringing him back into the rotation since he will be a key member of the Bucks if they want to go […]

Chris Paul’s First-Round DFS Preview

Houston Rockets guard Chris Paul has struggled against the Timberwolves this season. In his four meetings against Minnesota this season, Paul is averaging only 16 points per contest. He has also been less efficient shooting the ball, averaging 47 percent from the field and only 28 percent from beyond the arc. With the T'Wolves being […]

Reggie Jackson Gets 10 Assists in Win

Detroit Pistons point guard Reggie Jackson dished out 10 assists in a 119-87 blowout win over the Chicago Bulls. Jackson struggled from the floor, going only 2-for-8 while making one of five from beyond the arc to finish with just seven points.

Houston Rockets guard James Harden will square off against the Timberwolves in the opening round of the 2018 NBA playoffs. Harden has been somewhat held in check against Minnesota this season, averaging 27.3 points per game. He has also seen a reduction in his field goal percentage in his four meetings against them this year, […]

Al Horford, Terry Rozier Out on Wednesday

Boston Celtics guard Terry Rozier (rest) and forward/center Al Horford (rest) will not play against the Brooklyn Nets on Wednesday. It's the second game of a back-to-back set, so it is not surprising to see the Celtics rest their starters. Shane Larkin is expected to draw the start, while Kadeem Allen will back him up. […]

Fred VanVleet is Questionable Against Heat

Toronto Raptors point guard Fred VanVleet (back) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Miami Heat. He tweaked his back in Sunday's victory over the Magic. He was ruled out of Monday's game versus the Spurs, and this game is basically meaningless for the Heat. Delon Wright would serve as Kyle Lowry's main backup, assuming […]

Goran Dragic is Doubtful on Wednesday

Miami Heat guard Goran Dragic (knee) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Toronto Raptors. Head coach Erik Spoelstra said the team is going to be smart in dealing with Dragic's soreness in his knee. It's the regular season finale and the Heat have already locked down a playoff spot, so expect Dragic to rest. […]

Spencer Dinwiddie Ruled Out on Wednesday

Brooklyn Nets point guard Spencer Dinwiddie (knee) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against the Boston Celtics. Dinwiddie will join teammates DeMarre Carroll (hip) and Joe Harris (ankle) on the sidelines in Boston on Wednesday. Caris LeVert and Nik Stauskas should benefit the most from these players being sidelined. Stauskas could be tough to […]

John Wall is Doubtful on Wednesday

Washington Wizards point guard John Wall (rest) is doubtful for Wednesday's game against the Orlando Magic. He sat out on Friday against the Atlanta Hawks, but played versus the Celtics on Tuesday. Wall said he only wanted to play against playoff teams, so he's likely going to be sidelined for Wednesday's contest. It's the regular […]

Andre Ingram Plays Excellent Basketball In NBA Debut

Los Angeles Lakers point guard Andre Ingram is 32 years old and a long-time veteran of the G League, but Tuesday's loss to the Rockets was the first time he had stepped onto an NBA court for a regular season game. He didn't disappoint Lakers fans and the broader NBA community, scoring 19 points on […]

Chris Paul Leads Houston In Scoring Against Lakers

Houston Rockets point guard Chris Paul led his team in points in Tuesday's win over the Lakers, dropping in 22 of them on 9-for-14 shooting. Paul had six assists and three rebounds. The Rockets play the Kings on Wednesday, but in a meaningless game on the second night of a back-to-back, it would be a […]

Terry Rozier Disappoints Again On Tuesday Night

Boston Celtics point guard Terry Rozier had another forgettable outing on Tuesday against Washington, as he managed to get only eight points in 33 minutes on the floor. He shot 2-for-12 from the field, including a shocking 1-for-7 from downtown. Rozier has fallen off the cliff this month, as he's barely shooting over 25 percent. […]
