Jan Rey has been following basketball way before he knew how to write cursive letters. He is also an ardent fantasy basketball participant since 2003 and has won two private All-Filipino 20-team leagues way back when.
Only five days to go before the season ends but like every slowpoke will say, it's better late than never. Here's your options from a six-game Saturday. Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Advice April 11 The Studs Blake Griffin, PF ($8,700) The secret to getting production this late in the season is to roster players that actually play for SOMETHING. They'd still go all out because they know one slippage could mean the difference between having homecourt advantage or starting the playoffs on the Read More
Ten games of action and off we go! Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice April 3 The Studs John Wall, PG ($9,000) John Wall has activated beast mode lately, dropping 54, 54.25, and 61 fantasy points lately. He settled for 31 against Philadelphia but it was a blowout win and played only 30 minutes. Can anyone guess for how much will he torment the Knicks defense tonight? Brook Lopez, C ($8,200) After struggling early in the season and momentarily ceasing his starting spot to Mason Plumlee, Brook Read More
Every NBA player will tell you the boring cliche about how it's not about the individual accolades but I don't buy it. These awards make cements your status-- be it a very good rotation player (6th man) or the best among your peers (MVP, Coach of the Year, DPOY, etc.). Without further ado, it's now time make these late-season predictions and to hell with being wrong. There are really no losers here. Most Improved Player: Draymond Green, Golden State Warriors This one is a toss-up between the Read More
As soon as Steve Nash officially hung up his sneakers sometime last week, I was grinning from ear to ear, if not visibly, deep down inside my heart. No, not that I hate the guy-- it's quite the opposite-- but it's like looking at your terminally ill relative deciding to put down resistance for today and decided to postpone the war later. Only, not in this present world. Heaps of praise and support rained on Canada's first true NBA star and naturally, conversations shifted from how he blew the Los Read More
Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice March 29 All nine games of NBA action and one good day of daily fantasy basketball. The Studs Reggie Jackson, PG ($8,300) Reggie Jackson has been very good for the Pistons lately. But a lot of people in this league are very good, so how good exactly? How about Westbrook-esque? Jackson had two triple-doubles in two of the last four and again flirted with one in 37 minutes of work against Boston. Will he do that again against Miami? I'm willing to bet. Nerlens Read 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. Here Read More
Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice March 28 It's only five games but there are a lot of golden opportunities to win if you look these players' way this Saturday. The Studs LaMarcus Aldridge, PF ($8,700) LA has been somewhat inconsistent the past four games--scoring in the 40's and 50's sandwiched by games of the 20 and 30-point variety. So how ill Saturday night go? There's no way to tell but the match-up suggests it could probably be the former. In the two rather poor games, Aldridge locked horns Read More
Daily Fantasy Lineup Advice March 25 Thirteen games on a Thursday evening means it's time to party. Here are some guys worth a look on March 25. The Studs DeMarcus Cousins, C ($9,700) Call him DMC, call him Boogie, this kid is scary good. Cousins bullied Philadelphia to post 33 and 17 with three assists, four steals, and four blocks-- good for 7 and a half Fantasy Points. That's about as high as anyone can get without having a triple double! The Kings visit the Suns next and while they may Read More
It's playoff time and most likely, some of your best players and glue guys--or a mixture of both-- are either hurt or resting. If that's the case, here are some top playoff pickups to help your fantasy playoff push. Donatas Motiejunas, PF/C As far as multi-category bigs go, D-Mo is probably the best that's still available in standard leagues right now. He doesn't swat many shots at that position, but you can't be picky because he contributes in just about everything else. His value just Read More
Here are some players you might want to look at in Sunday's 11-game slate. Again, no Russell Westbrook in here. Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Advice March 22 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. Against Sacramento, there'll be no unfavorable match-up for the quick guard so something in the 40-50 range is inevitably Read More
