Patty Mills (PG/SG, BKN): Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 50% of leagues ANALYSIS: The best fantasy GMs have always said that leagues aren't won by draft day, but rather through the in-season waiver-wire management. And they could very well be right, considering fools out there are still passing on Patty Mills and his half-Yahoo availability.... Read More

BALLER MOVE: Add in 10+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 55% of leagues ANALYSIS: This might not be entirely true, but wins are starting to pile up for the Lakers and that started to happen the minute Malik Monk was put into the starting lineup. As real as it gets. It's been four weeks in a... Read More

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 45% of leagues ANALYSIS: Seven games played by the Clippers after Christmas, and six starts for Eric Bledsoe in this span (to go with another 36-minute outing as part of the starting five on Dec. 22).

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 55% of leagues ANALYSIS: I guess there are no doubts left regarding where the Knicks are at in their process to contention after what happened in 2021 and the start of 2022: nowhere close to the chip, that's where.

Fantasy Basketball Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 12
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... Read More

DraftKings, FanDuel NBA DFS Lineup Picks (1/2/22): Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice
Welcome, RotoBallers. We're treated to a solid six-game slate tonight and three of the matchups (PHX/CHA, MIA/SAC, MIN/LAL) are very appealing from a DFS perspective. We're starting to see teams returning to some semblance of their typical starting lineups, though there are still a ton of players stuck in the health and safety protocols. This... Read More
Malik Monk (PG/SG, LAL): Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 41% of leagues ANALYSIS: Kendrick Nunn and Anthony Davis are the only players out of the Lakers rotation entering 2022. The former has yet to play his first minutes donning Purple and Gold threads, and the latter should stay out for almost a month. Even then,... Read More
Terance Mann (SG/SF, LAC): Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 51% of leagues ANALYSIS: The Clips are missing Paul George now and for the next three/four weeks. The Clips are, too, missing Kawhi for the full regular season. Brandon Boston Jr. just hit the protocols. And all of that made possible Terance Mann's comeback to the... Read More
Eric Bledsoe (PG/SG, LAC): Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 59% of leagues ANALYSIS: Yes, I know we're stretching things a bit talking about a near-60% rostered player, but Eric Bledsoe is well worth the WW look just in case and much more the WW post this weekend. The Clippers' shelves are absolutely stacked these days... Read More
Alec Burks (PG/SG/SF, NYK): Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 51% of leagues ANALYSIS: Kemba Walker missed three weeks of play from the end of November to mid-December as he came back to Thibs' rotation on Dec. 18 to score 29 points. Not bad. He even doubled-down on that with another 21-8-5 performance three days later,... Read More
Payton Pritchard (PG, BOS): Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 18% of leagues ANALYSIS: Just in case: Dennis Schroder has missed time of late hitting the protocols but should be back from that as soon as possible. That, along with Marcus Smart also being back after missing a week, will cut Pritchard's upside down a bit,... Read More
Eric Gordon (SG/SF, HOU): Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 39% of leagues ANALYSIS: The Rockets started the year thinking about stinking so they applied a Hard-Tank model not giving Gordon a single chance at starting games until Nov. 17, 12 games into the season already. Since that game, though, Eric G. has started all games... Read More
Gary Harris (SG/SF, ORL): Week 12 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 33% of leagues ANALYSIS: I don't think there is a team currently being hit harder by injuries/protocols as the Magic are these days. Orlando is missing all of Ross, Bamba, RoLo, Cole Anthony, Fultz, Okeke, and rookie-sensation Jalen Suggs. It's borderline impossible to think something like... Read More
