Courtney Lee Does his Job on the Scoring Front

New York Knicks shooting guard Courtney Lee was one of his team's more reliable scoring options on Monday, finishing with a solid 18 points that included three triples on a fine 4-for-8 from deep. Lee also was perfect from the charity stripe, as he went 7-for-7 from the free throw line against the Sixers. He […]

Tim Hardaway Jr. Snaps Back Into Slump on Monday

New York Knicks guard/forward Tim Hardaway Jr. scored 17 points against the Pacers on Sunday in Indiana, but returned back to his slumping ways in Philly, scoring just nine points on a sorry 4-for-16 shooting on Monday. Hardaway Jr. added two rebounds, three assists and one steal in the loss, while committing one turnover in […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (2/12/18): NBA DFS Lineups

The Association has six games scheduled to start off the week. Plenty of high-scoring matchups, but also plenty of games to stay away from, notably Knicks/Sixers, Spurs/Jazz and Suns/Warriors. In this article, I will be providing you with my daily fantasy basketball lineup picks for DraftKings on 2/12/18. These DFS lineup picks can vary from higher-priced players […]

Devin Booker Out Against Warriors

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (hip) has been ruled out of Monday's game against the Golden State Warriors. He is still unable to turn without pain, but is hopeful of playing on Wednesday against Utah. It is safe to assume the Suns are going to hold Booker out until after the All-Star break. Elfrid Payton […]

Kris Dunn Ruled Out Monday

Chicago Bulls guard Kris Dunn (concussion) will not play against the Orlando Magic on Monday. He cleared concussion protocol a few days ago, but has not played since Jan. 17. The Bulls may elect to hold Dunn out until after the All-Star break, so he can get more conditioning and practice done. Jerian Grant is […]

Marco Belinelli Could Play Monday

Philadelphia 76ers guard/forward Marco Belinelli could make his Sixers debut against the New York Knicks on Monday. He is expected to sign the paperwork a few hours before tip-off, but it's just a matter of whether or not they get it done in time. Belinelli will be a solid addition to the Sixers bench. He […]

Jarrett Jack is Losing Minutes

New York Knicks guard Jarrett Jack is expected to lose minutes after the All-Star break. Head coach Jeff Hornacek said he'll likely make a lineup change after the break. "When we bring in another point guard and young kid in Emmanuel, we have to look at things," Hornacek said. Jack played just eight minutes in […]

Milos Teodosic Will Play Monday

Los Angeles Clippers guard Milos Teodosic (foot) will play against the Brooklyn Nets on Monday. He has missed the last two games but did get some work in on Sunday. He is expected to see his normal amount of minutes without any limits. The Nets have allowed the fifth most points to point guards this […]

Yogi Ferrell Leads Dallas in Scoring Against Houston

Dallas Mavericks guard Yogi Ferrell made his 17th start of the season on Sunday with multiple players out, and had a really good game, leading the team in scoring with 20 points. He shot 7-for-14 from the field and made half of his eight triple attempts, while adding five rebounds and three steals to his […]

James Harden Has Strong Outing Against Mavericks

Houston Rockets shooting guard James Harden led Houston with 27 points on Sunday as the Rockets beat the Dallas Mavericks 104-97. Harden also grabbed six rebounds, though he only dished out five assists, just over half of his per-game average. Harden struggled from behind the arc in the game, going just 4-for-13, but he went […]

Victor Oladipo Gets Close To Quadruple-Double Territory

Indiana Pacers guard Victor Oladipo easily had the most aesthetically-pleasing stat lines Sunday. He scored 30 points on 24 shots, along with eight rebounds, nine assists and a statistical cherry on top -- six steals. It was an incredibly effective game for Oladipo, and he carried the Pacers offense through Knicks run after run. He […]

Rodney Hood Scores 15 Points Against Celtics

Cleveland Cavaliers guard Rodney Hood scored 15 points in his Cavaliers debut and proved to be the exact security valve the Cavaliers needed off the bench. There’s a chance he could be bumped to the starting lineup, but until then he will be posting modest stat lines that are mainly points. Hood will be given […]

DeMar DeRozan Puts Up a Couple Team Bests in Win

Toronto Raptors shooting guard DeMar DeRozan led his team to victory on Sunday, scoring a team-best 25 points on 10-for-19 shooting while draining three from downtown against the Hornets. DeRozan was seeing the floor really well in this one, dishing out another team-high eight assists in the win. He added two rebounds, one steal, one […]

C.J. Miles Blows Up for a Season-High 24 Points Against the Hornets

Toronto Raptors guard/forward C.J. Miles was red-hot from beyond the arc on Sunday, banging home a game-high six triples to score 24 points while shooting a super-efficient 8-for-11 in the contest. Miles filled it up in general in this one, adding one assist, one rebound, two steals and one block in the win. That makes […]

Devin Booker Questionable for Monday

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (hip) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Golden State Warriors. He's missed three straight games and is in danger of missing his fourth in a row. Josh Jackson and T.J. Warren have seen extended minutes and usage while Booker has been out. Elfrid Payton scored 19 points […]

J.J. Barea Ruled Out Sunday

Dallas Mavericks guard J.J. Barea (rest) will not play against the Houston Rockets on Sunday. It is the second game of a back-to-back set, so it is not surprising to see the Mavs resting Barea. The Mavs are sitting in 13th in the West, so we could see Dallas rest more of their veterans as […]

Iman Shumpert Won't Play Sunday

Sacramento Kings guard/forward Iman Shumpert (foot) will not play in Sunday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Shumpert is considered out indefinitely with plantar fasciitis in his left foot. He was traded to the Kings in a three-team trade at the deadline. Shumpert was not doing much when healthy, so do not expect his value to […]

Wesley Matthews Ruled Out Against Rockets

Dallas Mavericks guard Wesley Matthews (back) won't play on Sunday against Houston. Matthews scored 13 points for Dallas in Saturday's win over the Lakers, but the team is playing it safe and not bringing him down to Houston for Sunday's divisional matchup. With J.J. Barea (rest) also inactive, expect Dennis Smith Jr. to play big […]

Bradley Beal Takes Back Seat In Win

Washington Wizards shooting guard Bradley Beal had a poor offensive night in the win over the Chicago Bulls Saturday. Beal scored just seven points on 3-for-13 shooting from the field, including 0-for-7 shooting from the three-point line in 35 minutes. Beal also committed four turnovers but contributed six assists, two steals and two rebounds. Beal […]

E'Twaun Moore Shoots Well Against Nets

New Orleans Pelicans shooting guard E'Twaun Moore hit five of his eight shots on Saturday against the Brooklyn Nets to finish with 12 points. He went 2-for-4 with his triples to continue his career year from behind the arc this season. Moore is shooting 43.5 percent from deep this season, which is helping him average […]

Jrue Holiday Bounces Back on Saturday With 22 Points

New Orleans Pelicans guard Jrue Holiday, who was limited to just nine points and no assists by the Sixers on Friday, quickly got going again, scoring 22 points on 7-for-15 shooting in Saturday's double-overtime win over Brooklyn. He also had seven rebounds and five assists in 49 minutes on the floor. Holiday has been really […]

Allen Crabbe Goes Off For 28 Points

Brooklyn Nets shooting guard Allen Crabbe was on fire Saturday, single-handedly keeping his Nets team in the game after they overcame a 28-point deficit to the Pelicans. Crabbe erupted for 28 points in the loss while leading the team in minutes with 44. Crabbe is an enigma for fantasy players and is probably a better […]

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope Solid Against Dallas

Los Angeles Lakers guard Kentavious Caldwell-Pope played well all around against the Mavs. KCP saw 35 minutes of action, scoring 14 points on 5-for-8 shooting from the field and 2-for-5 from behind the arc. He also chipped in elsewhere, contributing six boards, four assists and three steals. He has played well this season for the […]

Will Barton Has A Very Efficient Game

Denver Nuggets shooting guard Will Barton shot the ball well in his matchup Saturday night versus the Phoenix Suns. Barton scored 25 points, going 10-for-14 from the floor, with four of those made shots coming from downtown. Also in the game, Barton had five boards and fives assists. In the last five contests, the Nuggets […]

J.J. Redick Scores 15 Points With Five Triples

Philadelphia 76ers shooting guard J.J. Redick did what he does on Saturday, putting up a respectable point total, along with an impressive three-point barrage against his former team. Redick shot 6-for-12 in this one, scoring 17 points in his 29 minutes, while going 5-for-10 from deep. Redick added three assists, one rebound and one block […]

T.J. McConnell has a Great Game Against the Clips

Philadelphia 76ers guard T.J. McConnell played well off the bench on Saturday, scoring 17 points on a fantastic 6-for-7 from the field, including a perfect 3-for-3 from deep and going a flawless 2-for-2 from the line. McConnell showed the Clippers why he's one of the best reserve point guards in the league in this one, […]

Devin Booker Won't Play Saturday

Phoenix Suns guard Devin Booker (hip) has been ruled out of Saturday's game against the Denver Nuggets. Booker was unable to practice on Friday, so it is not surprising to see him sidelined. It will be the third straight game the Suns will be without Booker, but T.J. Warren and Josh Jackson will see increased […]

Milos Teodosic Questionable Against Sixers

Los Angeles Clippers guard Milos Teodosic (foot) is questionable for Saturday's contest against the Philadelphia 76ers. He missed Friday's game versus the Pistons, but it was the front end of a back-to-back set. The Clippers have limited Milos since his injury back in October. The Clippers may decide to continue limiting Teodosic until after the […]

Zach LaVine Won't Play Saturday

Chicago Bulls guard Zach LaVine (rest) will not play against the Washington Wizards on Saturday. LaVine scored 35 points in the victory over the Timberwolves on Friday. However, the Bulls do not want LaVine playing in back-to-back sets. He's averaging 17.3 points, 4.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 1.9 triples through 12 games this season. He […]

Gerald Green Enjoys Extended Run

Houston Rockets shooting guard Gerald Green logged over 25 minutes for the fifth time in last six games on Friday, scoring 16 points in 28 minutes against the Nuggets. He shot the three-ball well, going 4-for-9 with his treys, but overall, it wasn't a very effective scoring output, as he shot 5-for-14. Trevor Ariza (hamstring) […]
