NBA Daily Fantasy: Is Julius Randle a sure thing? And is it time to bet on Darius Garland?
Hopefully you have enough money left over for your daily fantasy ventures after your hefty Dogecoin investment yesterday. Hold on to that like you should to potential future All-Star Julius Randle, who opens our 10-game slate of picks to end the work week. ...
Damian Lillard or Steph Curry — who’s the better daily fantasy play for tonight?
To quote Joe Budden: This week has been a two-pack of ass. As far as fantasy basketball goes, we’re not looking out at an eventful overall slate until Friday. Even still, while tonight presents its challenges, it’s also an opportunity to play someone you never would due to lack of options, and be pl...
Will Clint Capela’s historic four-game fantasy stretch continue against Brooklyn?
Sometimes your targets are so far below your price range that you laugh at how easily you’ll take them. And in other instances, the bookkeepers raise their value so much, causing you to contemplate reevaluating your choices. That happened to some degree here, but still, I’m sticking to it. FanDuel i...
Which Clipper will step up fantasy production without Leonard, George, or Beverley?
Three games tonight, and the best one features the New York Knicks. God bless if tonight’s a big gambling night for you because this is one of the season’s worst evenings on paper so far. No, it’s not because of the Knicks: Their match-up with the Utah Jazz saves this from being downright abysmal. T...
NBA Daily Fantasy: Don’t listen to Shaq, Donovan Mitchell deserves his due
Who else watched the TNT broadcast on Thursday night and thought, “Damn, do I really watch more basketball than Shaquille O’Neal and Charles Barkley?” Then again, some of y’all have probably felt that way for years. (The terrifying thing is many of you might be correct.) ...
NBA Daily Fantasy: Steph Curry will save you on this limited game-night
Much like a couple of nights ago, the slate tonight is thinner than your life-span when flying an airplane in Grand Theft Auto V. Seriously, even nearly eight years later I still can’t get the hang of it. Sucks when virtual condos just get in your way sometimes. ...
NBA Daily Fantasy: With tiny two-game slate, now is not the night to avoid Nikola Jokic
The amount of fingers Kendrick Lamar tells you to put in the air during HiiiPower is higher than the amount of NBA games scheduled for tonight. Fret not, misled degenerate, that makes the evening more enticing, not less. If you subscribe to the preference of being a big fish in a small pond, these t...
NBA Daily Fantasy: Who to watch for on a loaded MLK Day slate
Nine games scheduled; we’ll see if that stands. Hopefully you’re reading this before noon, otherwise, you’ll have missed the Knicks vs. the Magic. If you did that on purpose, I’d understand. (The Knicks are pretty fun so far, though!) Anyway, we’ll begin tonight across the bridge from them in Brookl...
Daily Fantasy: Richaun Holmes has been reliable … even if he can’t stop fouling
Four of the top-10 players tonight are game-time decisions. You cautiously stay away after making your lineups too early, and then player X goes off. You forgot to check back before 7:30 p.m. to switch him in, and it was discovered that he’s actually playing. And your significant other wonders why y...
Batty ’Bama fans test the theory of herd immunity after national title win
After seeing their team win their fifth national championship in the last decade, Alabama fans apparently weren’t interested in letting a teeny tiny pandemic stop them from celebrating in the streets really, really close together....
Fantasy basketball waiver wire: Pick-ups to consider to save your imploding COVID-ridden roster
More NBA players are either testing positive, are sitting out due to contact tracing, or are simply injured entering week four of the season. Now is about the time where you’ve already shuffled a few spots, your injured reserves are filling up, and you’re scouring your waiver wire for worthwhile fa...
Bet your daily fantasy fortunes on Bradley Beal normally, but especially tonight
As COVID continues to evade NBA locker rooms like Clickers in The Last Of Us (which also takes place a pandemic, oddly enough), degenerates are scrapping for answers as players drop out of lineups throughout the league. Read those lineups carefully, because some last-second scratches might come so l...
NBA Daily Fantasy: Can Most Improved Player Julius Randle keep this up?
Whew, boy. Wait until you see the first elite. You’re going to be like, “This dude isn’t elite.” But right now, in fantasy? Yes ... yes, he is. We begin your Friday night in New York City with the NBA’s Most Improved Player. ...
Derrick Rose (’memba him?) has quietly been a reliable fantasy guard option
I don’t even know where to begin. There are 11 games to choose from, and we’re gonna throw out some names to consider in your fantasy ventures. Yesterday wasn’t terrible. Kyrie Irving smacked the Jazz as called, Keldon Johnson came through, Enes Kanter bombed with two points despite 10 rebounds, and...
No KD? That makes Kyrie Irving the perfect choice to light up fantasy scoreboards
Only five games tonight, meaning Zach LaVine qualifies as an elite tier play tonight, even though he’s not, respectfully. Speaking of LaVine, more on him shortly! Let’s get it. ...
NBA Daily Fantasy Yah’s & Nah’s: Will Joel Embiid continue being excellent?
A few of y’all have told me you’ve been winning some money. Good. Don’t buy Yeezys or some dumb shit. Let’s keep the good vibes going early into the New Year. We start in Philadelphia, a place that Carson Wentz will be leaving soon. ...
NBA Daily Fantasy Grind, New Year Edition: 'Young' love & the return of … Josh Jackson?!
Happy New Year! Hopefully, you lose way less money in 2021 than you did in 2020. That may sound facetious, but it’s sincere. That shit was hard. This shit gon’ be aight … hopefully. Anyway, to begin the new calendar, we’ve got 10 games. Ideally, whoever you put money on tonight isn’t hungover. ...
NBA Daily Fantasy Yah’s & Nah’s: Luka or Giannis call highlights night of killer matchups
Just five games today, but we’ll make it work. Let’s not waste any time because shit is about to get weird. Today’s unhelpful advice begins in Texas....
Johnny Manziel to join bold, bizarre spring football league where fans pick the plays
This week Johnny Manziel told ESPN that he intends to play in Fan Controlled Football, a new 7-on-7 spring football league that kicks off in February....
Daily Fantasy Yah’s & Nah’s: What do we do with Jayson Tatum, Tyler Herro, and RJ Barrett?
Massive slate of NBA games today to choose from as we continue to try making a dollar out of 15 cents all season long. We’re all ultimately guessing, right? Let’s begin in Denver....
