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.

Will Clint Capela’s historic four-game fantasy stretch continue against Brooklyn?

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...

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...
