Why You Need Patience In Fantasy Basketball

Patience is a virtue and that's a fact even in fantasy basketball. There's a reason somebody came up with the adage "good things come to those who wait" because, well, good things come to those who wait. In fantasy basketball, the hardest thing to figure is when to cut bait and when to be patient when your players are under-performing. Or if someone who was predicted to be a breakout candidate couldn't get 20 minutes of playing time. This is a dated reference but remember how Pascal Siakam started Read More

5 Best Bargain Options For NBA DFS Jan. 7, 2020

Jan. 6, 2020 recap: OK, Jingles gave me 39 FP so I'm pretty happy with the result along with JJ Redick's 27 FP on a near-minimum salary. As I have suggested, it would be best if you spend top dollar on Monday night's crop of point guards especially Luka Doncic and/or Lonzo Ball and both kept it rolling against their respective opponents. Doncic has recorded his 10th 30-point triple-double, the most by a 20-year old in NBA history while Ball had 21 points, eight rebounds, and seven assists for around Read More

5 Bargain OptioNS For NBA DFS Jan. 6, 2020

I wasnt' able to do a recap for Jan. 4 because of time constraints but MPJ, Jordan McRae, and Marcus Smart all disappointed for various reasons. Ish Smith went nuclear in the Wizards win (with Troy Brown giving quality minutes off the bench) so McRae did not really have the chance to replicate on his career game. Smart still played a lot of minutes but the return of Jaylen Brown kind of capped his ceiling. That doesn't mean, however, that I will completely ignore him in the upcoming game against Read More

3 Best Bargain Options For NBA DFS Jan. 5, 2020

1.) Darius Garland, PG, Cleveland Cavaliers Garland and the Cavs are on the second game of a back-to-back but that should not matter. The 2019 fifth overall pick has finally started to put it together--he is averaging 16 points, 2.2 rebounds, 5.5 assists, and 1.3 steals over the past four games. That was capped by a 20-point, seven-assist performance vs OKC. 2.) Jarrett Culver, PG/SG, Minnesota Timberwolves Culver went back to his mediocre ways in the blowout win over Golden State but his three-game Read More

Jan. 3, 2020 Recap: As predicted, Derrick Jones Jr.'s minutes were there (31), but unfortunately, the production were not. The Heat were blown out by their state rivals by 20 points but that should not be an excuse why he only got 5 points, two rebounds, and a steal. Anyway, while Jones fizzled, Enes Kanter was the exact opposite. He had 14 points, 11 rebounds, an assist, and two blocks (23 minutes) for a total of around 33 FP at Yahoo and DraftKings . As of this writing, Josh Hart is still playing, Read More

3 players to build your DraftKings lineup around. Jan 3rd.

Friday Picks Thank God 2019 is over. The start to this season has been my worst stretch of DFS Basketball I have had since I started playing. I couldn’t get anything going, I would be so comfortable and confident with a lineup and then watch it shit the bed over and over again. I’m going to turn it around in 2020, I have too, there is no possible way I could do any worse. The 3 players I pick have been pretty good, I will miss on the occasional player, but for the most part they have been Read More

3 Best Bargain Options For NBA DFS Jan. 3, 2010

Due to time constraints, I wasn't able to give you my picks on a night where bargain options abound so I'm going to kick things off with a recap on my last bargain suggestions. As expected, Kyle Kuzma had a nice game against Phoenix once again with 19 points, four rebounds, and some extras. Jordan McRae was also solid at 15 points and seven rebounds while Aron Baynes disappeared, totaling his lowest output in six games. Friday had six games so I guess we won't have any shortage of bargain options. Read More

3 Best Bargain Options For NBA DFS Jan. 1, 2020

Here's a short recap for Dec. 31: Due to the blowout nature of the Denver-Houston game, Michael Porter, Jr., Chris Clemons, and Eric Gordon fizzled. Clemons is essentially a streaming option in case Russell Westbrook is not good to go so you can leave him in the conversation. Moreover, James Harden did suit up limiting more minutes at the backcourt. On the other hand, Rudy Gay, who has been playing well the past thee games was held to around 8 FP in 19 minutes in an overtime game against the Warriors. Read More

Monday Recap Nikola Vucevic 41 FPTs 27P/6R/1A/2S Joe Ingles 24.75 FPTs 10P/5A/5R/1B Kendrick Nunn 21 FPTs 14P/3A/2R Orlando Pinstriped Post Vucevic had a good game in a surprise loss to the Hawks. He scored 27 points but he failed to reach his average rebound mark, he only had 6 boards. I am happy with Nikola’s production, 41 fantasy points is right on his average. Ingles reached his fantasy average Monday night, but he had a bad game. I was worried this game was going Read More

Here are some of the best bargain options for Dec. 31, 2019: 1.) Damion Lee, SG, Golden State Warriors Lee may be Steph Curry's brother-in-law but he is starting to endear himself to Warriors' fans with his own style of play.
