Eric Gordon Out Thursday

Houston Rockets shooting guard Eric Gordon (groin) is close, but still not ready to play in Thursday’s game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. As long as the deep-threat remains out, Carmelo Anthony should be relied on for more offensive production. Anthony should get minutes in the 24-28 range tonight, but is very scoring dependent for […]

Tim Hardaway Jr. Sinks 16 Free Throws

New York Knicks shooting guard/small forward Tim Hardaway Jr. scored 34 points on 8-for-22 shooting, 2-for-11 from beyond the arc and 16-for-20 from the free-throw line in Wednesday's victory over the Hawks.

FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (11/8/18): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice

There are only four games tonight and every day we are seeing progress with each team. The start to every season is difficult because of random rotations, coaching changes and chemistry issues, so by the end of this month, every team will be in a more concrete direction, rather than still trying to figure out […]

Damyean Dotson Makes A Single Three-Pointer

New York Knicks shooting guard Damyean Dotson had three points, three rebounds and two assists in Wednesday's victory over the Hawks. He made his lone shot of the evening, a three-pointer, in 18 minutes. It marked the rookie's lowest minutes and point totals of the campaign. Dotson had scored in double figures in his first […]

Eric Gordon Remains Questionable on Thursday

Houston Rockets shooting guard Eric Gordon (groin) remains questionable for Thursday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. He was able to practice on Wednesday, which is a good sign. It sounds like the Rockets are going to wait until right before tip-off to decide Gordon's status. Carmelo Anthony and Gerald Green would lose value if […]

Zach LaVine Scores Team-High 22 Points

Chicago Bulls shooting guard Zach LaVine scored a team-high 22 points in Wednesday’s loss against the New Orleans Pelicans. It was actually a slow night by LaVine’s standards recently, as he also finished with five rebounds, four assists, and a block. Fantasy owners should love what they’ve seen out of LaVine so far this season, […]

Gordon Hayward Expected to Play in Back-to-Back Set

Boston Celtics guard/forward Gordon Hayward is expected to play in both games of the upcoming back-to-back set. Head coach Brad Stevens says he plans to have Hayward play on both Thursday and Friday.

Victor Oladipo Has Huge Night Against Sixers

Indiana Pacers guard Victor Oladipo had 24 of the Pacers' 50 first-half points in Wednesday's loss to Philadelphia, and he finished the night with 36 points on 14-for-30 shooting to go along with seven assists, six rebounds, two steals and three blocks. It was a huge night for Oladipo, who is now averaging 24.1 points […]

Terrence Ross Continues To Impress

Evan Fournier Scores Team-High 27 Points

Orlando Magic guard/forward Evan Fournier scored a team-high 27 points on Wednesday against the Pistons, shooting 12-for-19 from the field and 3-for-6 from downtown. He posted one of his best fantasy lines of the season, adding five rebounds, three assists, three steals, and one block. Fournier is a good shooter, but this was actually only […]

Glenn Robinson III Disappoints In Second Start

Detroit Pistons guard/forward Glenn Robinson III failed to build on his impressive first start of the year on Wednesday, following up a 16-point performance with a nine-point dud. He shot 2-for-7 from the field in 27 minutes with no peripheral stats. Robinson III earned Dwane Casey's trust with his play on Monday against Miami, but […]

Jimmy Butler Plays Huge Minutes Versus Lakers

Minnesota Timberwolves guard/forward Jimmy Butler played a team-high 43 minutes on Wednesday against the Lakers, scoring 24 points on 9-for-18 shooting with five rebounds, five assists, and three steals.

Alec Burks Sharp Off The Bench On Wednesday

Utah Jazz shooting guard Alec Burks rolled up 18 points in just 15 minutes off the bench in Wednesday's 117-102 victory against the Dallas Mavericks. He was a very effective 6-for-10 from the field, including 4-for-5 from behind the three-point line, and he added 2-for-2 from the free-throw line while adding a blocked shot and […]

Donovan Mitchell Drops 23 Points In Return

Utah Jazz shooting guard Donovan Mitchell (ankle) finished Wednesday's 117-102 win against the Dallas Mavericks with a team-high 23 points over 33 minutes in his return to the lineup.

Wesley Matthews Does Well Across The Board

Dallas Matthews shooting guard Wesley Matthews ended up with 13 points across 34 minutes in Wednesday's 117-102 road loss against the Utah Jazz. He also added six rebounds, four assists and a steal, but it wasn't all good. Matthews had a minus-22 rating, worst among all players in the game, and he hit 4-for-10 from […]

Gary Harris Finds Some Three-Point Range On Wednesday

Denver Nuggets guard Gary Harris has been trying to shoot his way out of an early-season slump from behind the arc. A 36.7 career three-point shooter, Harris has only connected on 29.4 percent of his attempts from deep this season. Harris' 3-for-6 effort from three-point land on Wednesday was just the second time this season […]

Dillon Brooks Comes Back To Earth Against Denver Nuggets

Memphis Grizzlies guard Dillon Brooks was unable to continue the form that he had displayed over his previous two games, scoring just four points on Wednesday night. During his two-game explosion, Brooks had averaged 17.5 points per contest. The 22-year-old will have some more bursts throughout the season, but he doesn't get enough minutes to […]

Garrett Temple Struggles In Wednesday's Win

Memphis Grizzlies guard/forward Garrett Temple struggled during the team's 89-87 win over the Denver Nuggets on Wednesday. Temple was only able to provide five points to go along with two rebounds in 29 minutes of action. The 32-year-old has been an interesting player when dealing with the waiver wire. He presents some scoring, threes and […]

Donovan Mitchell Will Play Wednesday Night

Utah Jazz guard Donovan Mitchell (ankle) will play Wednesday night against the Dallas Mavericks. There was no real concern in Mitchell's availability as he was listed as probable coming into the contest. However, Mitchell has missed two of his last three games with either hamstring tightness or the sprained left ankle so his status is […]

Eric Gordon is Listed as Questionable for Thursday

Houston Rockets shooting guard Eric Gordon (groin) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Gordon was able to practice on Wednesday which is a good sign. There should be more information after shootaround on Thursday. Carmelo Anthony could lose some shots and Gerald Green would lose some minutes if Gordon […]

Avery Bradley Won't Play on Thursday

Los Angeles Clippers guard Avery Bradley (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Portland Trail Blazers. He's been seen in a walking boot and is getting ruled out a full day in advance. Bradley could be looking at a multiple game absence here. The Clippers are hopeful that Bradley can return on […]

Maurice Harkless Ruled Out on Thursday

Portland Trail Blazers guard/forward Maurice Harkless (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Los Angeles Clippers. This will be his seventh straight game that he's been sidelined. He continues to be ruled out a full day in advance which usually means he's not close to returning. Evan Turner should continue to benefit […]

Andre Iguodala Will Play on Thursday

Golden State Warriors guard/forward Andre Iguodala (calf) will play in Thursday's game against the Milwaukee Bucks. He rested on Monday and was able to practice on Wednesday. Iggy should get back in the rotation and see around 20-25 minutes against the Bucks. He doesn't have fantasy value in season long leagues, but could have DFS […]

Goran Dragic Will Sit Out Wednesday

Miami Heat point guard Goran Dragic (knee) will miss Wednesday night's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Dragic will miss his second game this season with the knee injury but was very close to playing Wednesday so the injury does not seem serious. In Dragic's absence, Wayne Ellington moves into the starting lineup while Josh […]

Robert Covington Remains Questionable on Wednesday

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Robert Covington (back) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Indiana Pacers. Covington was not able to practice on Tuesday, so it sounds like he's doubtful to play in this one. Dario Saric would be looking at heavy minutes without Covington and Mike Muscala (nose) already ruled out. Fantasy owners should check […]

Reggie Bullock Will Play Wednesday

Detroit Pistons guard Reggie Bullock (ankle) will play and presumably start Wednesday night against the Orlando Magic. Bullock will return to the court after a two-game absence with a sprained ankle. It's unclear if Bullock will have a minutes limit, but he should be fine for daily leagues. In Bullock's return, Bruce Brown Jr. will […]

Dwyane Wade is Sitting Out on Wednesday

Miami Heat guard Dwyane Wade (personal) has been ruled out of Wednesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Goran Dragic (knee) is listed as questionable for this one, so the Heat could be short handed on Wednesday. Josh Richardson and Tyler Johnson could be forced into heavy minutes in this one. Fantasy owners should check […]

RotoBaller NBA Recap: The Youth Movement is Real

There were about four minutes left in the first quarter of Tuesday night's commencement between the Hawks and Hornets. A 41-year old Vince Carter had Jeremy Lamb in the post before spinning baseline and elevating for a one-handed, "Statue of Liberty"-esque dunk. I use "elevating" lightly. I mean, it was far from a struggle dunk, […]
