Best Players To Draft In Fantasy Basketball

If you could redo the draft all over again, would you have picked the same players or are you ready to move on?

That said, there are certain players who are can't miss, which means if they somehow fall in your lap, you better not take five seconds before you pull the damn trigger. What we are going to do is go through six rounds of drafting Read More

3 Building Blocks For NBA DFS Jan. 1, 2019

DeAaron Fox, PG, Sacramento Kings

Fox has been an absolute monster, dropping more than 40 fantasy points in six consecutive games. The speedy point guard admitted he has been hounded by a minor shoulder issue but does not plan to miss any time. That means owners should continue to deploy him in their DFS lineups with no worries.
Fred VanVleet, PG, Toronto Raptors

FVV has been struggling with his shot but with Kyle Lowry out, he'll have every opportunity to perform. He has been averaging Read More

5 NBA DFS Targets For Thursday– Feb. 8, 2017

1. Paul George, SF, OKC Thunder
PG13 has been an absolute stud as of late, averaging 30.5 points, 5.3 rebounds, 3.5 assists, and three steals over the past seven days. Russell Westbrook and Carmelo Anthony are both questionable going into the Lakers game, so expect George to be very busy. Regardless, George is on a really hot streak right now and he should be on your short list of DFS targets on Thursday.
2. Bradley Beal, SG, Washington Wizards
Another building block for DFS Thursday is Bradley Read More

5 Must-Start Guys For NBA DFS Monday– Jan. 22, 2018

1. Khris Middleton, SG, Milwaukee Bucks ($8,600)

K-Mid picked up the slack in the absence of Giannis Antetokounmpo versus Philly, posting a huge triple-double with 23 points, 14 rebounds, and 10 assists. The Greek Freak will be out once again Monday so even though FanDuel increased Middleton's salary by a whopping 1,200 bucks since his last outing, you'd definitely want him on your DFS lineup against the Suns.
2. Eric Bledsoe, PG, Milwaukee Bucks ($8,300)

You can argue that Bled is a little Read More

5 Best Bargain Picks For NBA DFS Tuesday– Jan. 2, 2018

1. Shabazz Napier, PG, Portland Trail Blazers

Napier has filled in nicely for the injured Damian Lillard the last three games and has recorded at least 35 Fantasy Points in the last four and had 11 points, 5 rebounds, and six assists against Chicago.
2. Bogdan Bogdanovic, SF, Sacramento Kings

With averages of 12.3 points, 5.3 assists, 3.3 rebounds with defensive numbers in the past 3 games, it looks like Bogdanovic will be a very good streamline pick for weeks to come.
3. Taurean Prince, Read More

NBA Fantasy Basketball: 5 Players That Are Trending Upwards

1. Patrick Beverley, PG, Los Angeles Clippers

Patrick Beverley won't be in the top tier of point guards anytime soon but fantasy-wise, he could be a big help on anybody's roster this upcoming season. The 1st team All-Defense member is a solid playmaker, a hard-nosed defender, and a respectable enough shooter to warrant a spot as the third PG in your fantasy roster. He's now out of James Harden's shadow and playing alongside Milos Teodosic should allow PatBev to feature his scoring more.

It's very seldom for young studs to go right on and be statistically dominant right away. As such, growing pains are to expected, and it sometimes take very long, too.
However, more often than not, these young players have shown capabilities that sometimes belie their ages. They may be 15-20 minute rotation guys now or buried at the end of the bench for long stretches or being taken for the ride as soon as they boarded the ship. Regardless, let's stop the guessing game and get right to it.

The Studs
John Wall, PG ($8,700)

You know what stuff a basketball player is made of when they play hurt AND still play well. John Wall brushed off a sore ankle against Utah and dropped 44 FP against the Clippers.
