Fantasy Basketball Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 9

The deeper a fantasy basketball league, the harder it is to hit a winner with your last few picks. It is also harder to find decent help from the waiver wire if your late-round picks don't do you justice. If you picked up a few stinkers, don't lose hope just yet. I will try to […]

Kentavious Caldwell-Pope (PG/SG, WAS): Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 51% of leagues ANALYSIS:  Our favorite shooting forward with guard-only eligibility, that's KCP for you. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, with Bradley Beal and Spencer Dinwiddie manning the Wizards backcourt, was either going to hit the pine nightly or downsize Washington's lineup mightily starting on the wing. And it […]

Tyus Jones (PG, MEM): Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 40% of leagues ANALYSIS:  With Ja Morant banged up and on the shelf, all Memphis could do was trust oft-reserve Tyus Jones and throw him into the starting lineup if only until Ja is back. That's yet to happen, though, so Jones should keep manning the […]

Kevin Love (PF/C, CLE): Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 51% of leagues ANALYSIS:  The minute we stopped thinking about Love as a washed-up vet with slim-to-no-chances of helping Cleveland in finding him a new home, the minute he started to deliver good performances. Of course, Love is already on the downside of his career. He's […]

Eric Gordon (SG/SF, HOU): Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 36% of leagues ANALYSIS:  The Rockets don't want to have anything to do with Starter John Wall. At the same time, the Rockets have been playing 32-year-old Eric Gordon as a starter for 11 games straight and counting starting almost a month to this day on […]

Monte Morris (PG/SG, DEN): Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 53% of leagues ANALYSIS:  The Nuggets, if you live under a rock, are currently treating as many as five players (two bonafide starters) that are nursing all varieties of injuries/problems ranging from a season-ending back surgery to a stint in the Protocols shelf due to COVID […]

Pat Connaughton (SG/SF, MIL): Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 52% of leagues ANALYSIS:  With free-agency addition Grayson Allen putting on nightly shows for the Bucks, and Khris Middleton healthy once for all, Pat Connaughton is now mostly back to the pine and the second unit. Not that he's suffering from that change in his role […]

Patty Mills (PG/SG, BKN): Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues ROSTERED IN: 50% of leagues ANALYSIS:  Whatever it is that is wrong, it is very wrong. I'm talking about fantasy GMs and Patty Mills, yes. Somehow, Mills is rostered in just half of all Yahoo leagues, which let's be honest for a minute, makes no sense at all. That's because […]

Kevin Huerter (SG/SF, ATL): Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 41% of leagues ANALYSIS:  The Red Mamba keeps doing it, folks. Kevin Huerter has been forced into a do-or-die role with multiple Hawks banged up to start the year, and he's delivering spicy stuff with gusto so far this season. It's already been a full month […]

Garrison Mathews (SG/SF, HOU): Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 42% of leagues ANALYSIS: Garrison Mathews career has been so wild that it's still hard to believe. Without getting too deep into the details, let's say G-Mat hold onto his last shot at an NBA stint this past October signing with his lone option--the lowly rebuilding […]

Chris Duarte (SG, IND): Week 9 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 54% of leagues ANALYSIS:  Old rookie Chris Duarte got drafted by Indy and kicked his freshman season off with a bunch of bangs. In fact, Duarte was good for a season-high 27 pops in his debut all the way back on Oct. 20, a mark he's never […]

MMA DFS Value Picks - UFC 269: Oliveira vs. Poirier (Premium Content)

As sad as it's real, folks. We're hitting the last home run of the 2021 calendar year after we turn to our last plate appearance and single hit a week from now. In other words, we're entering the weekend of the last numbered event of the 12 months making up this year in UFC 269 […]

Targets and Air Yards Analysis - NextGen Stats

You won't believe it, but you weren't dreaming: the fantasy football regular season is almost over (in most leagues and for our purposes at least; some of y'all will still keep on going, you sickos), and it's time to gear up for the last regular-season week of play before turning our attention to the playoffs. […]

Dontrell Hilliard (RB, TEN) - Fantasy Football Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 28% of Leagues ANALYSIS: If we know anything about Tennessee, then those two things are that 1) the Titans are coming off their Bye week this weekend and 2) Derrick Henry isn't coming back any time soon. That means that current RB1 Dontrell Hilliard will 1) […]

Tua Tagovailoa (QB, MIA) - Fantasy Football Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 42% of Leagues ANALYSIS: For the production Tua Tagovailoa is handing his fantasy GMs, it's rather surprising to find him rostered in fewer than half of Yahoo leagues these days. Now, that's good for those of you squeezing the WW weekly, and even better considering Miami […]

Ricky Seals-Jones (TE, WAS) - Fantasy Football Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 5% of Leagues ANALYSIS: This Sunday marked Logan Thomas' second game after his Week 4 injury just five snaps into that game. Thomas, of course, finished last season as a top-3 tight end and the 85th-best player overall in PPR leagues. No joke, is what I […]

Marquez Valdes-Scantling (WR, GB) - Fantasy Football Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 19% of Leagues ANALYSIS: This is definitely just a move for those in the deepest of fantasy leagues. That's mostly because Marquez Vales-Scantling is Green Bay's WR3 and/or WR4 at the very best and prior to W11 he had topped at a 66% snap share while […]

Jared Goff (QB, DET) - Fantasy Football Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues ROSTERED IN: 6% of Leagues ANALYSIS: This is absolutely crazy and something I never thought I would be doing this season, but here we are writing about Jared Goff as a good (?) WW target entering Week 14. It took our pal Goff 13 games to carry Detroit to its […]

K.J. Osborn (WR, MIN) - Fantasy Football Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 3% of Leagues ANALYSIS: While K.J. Osborn has been the WR3 of the Vikings all season long, the truth is that he's been heavily used just on a few games while absolutely faded in the others--and the problem is that the latter group of matches outgrows […]

Jakeem Grant Sr. (WR, CHI) - Fantasy Football Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 0% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Jakeem Grant Sr.'s season is just fascinating. He kicked the year off playing for Miami in Week 2... and scoring negative-1.0 PPR points. You read that right, negative points. We didn't know a thing about Grant and never heard back from him until he […]

DeVante Parker (WR, MIA) - Fantasy Football Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 52% of Leagues ANALYSIS: DeVante Parker made his comeback to the gridiron last Sunday when Miami hosted New York and, truth be told, it didn't feel like he has missed just a single beat. After appearing in the first four games of the season, hitting the […]

Lil'Jordan Humphrey (WR, NO) - Fantasy Football Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN:0% of Leagues ANALYSIS: After appearing in the first two weeks of the season, Lil'Jordan Humphrey stayed out until a brief 13-span appearance in Week 7, and he then proceeded to remain out for three more weeks after re-appearing in time for Week 11's game at Philadelphia. […]

Tre'Quan Smith (WR, NO) - Fantasy Football Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 6% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Tre'Quan Smith didn't get to debut until Week 7, but hit the ground running and although he's had some up and downs through the road to Week 14, the truth is that the volume has always been there for him in a […]
