Fantasy Basketball Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 24: Isaac Okoro, Kris Dunn, Josh Richardson, Corey Kispert, Delon Wright
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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 16% of leagues ANALYSIS: The Hawks are currently the 10th seed in the East but are also tied for 8th and 9th with Brooklyn and Charlotte respectively.

Immanuel Quickley (PG, NYK): Week 24 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 48% of leagues ANALYSIS: If we use common basketball sense, then the New York Knicks and Coach Thibs should try and see what the young guys such as Immanuel Quickley have in them and what they can provide the franchise with ROS, as the NYK are... Read More
Deni Avdija (SG/SF, WAS): Week 24 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 37% of leagues ANALYSIS: One would reasonably think that a player seeing a playing-time boost such as that of Deni Avdija's this month would make said player drop his efficiency numbers. Well, not the case for the Wiz Wing by the looks of it. Avdija has... Read More
Nicolas Claxton (PF/C, BRK): Week 24 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 24% of leagues ANALYSIS: The Nets can finally rest assured they'll make the play-in portion of the season.

Markelle Fultz (PG/SG, ORL): Week 24 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 17% of leagues ANALYSIS: The Orlando Magic knew they would stink all season long when things got started all the way back in October. And they, indeed, have sucked for good currently being in possession of the NBA's worst record and already looking at the top... Read More
Alex Caruso (PG/SG, CHI): Week 24 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 43% of leagues ANALYSIS: Whether Chicago ends fifth or sixth in the Eastern Conference standings won't matter much for the Bulls. The good news for them is that it's going to be hard for Cleveland to catch them in the table as the Cavs are three... Read More
Matisse Thybulle (SG/SF, PHI): Week 24 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 42% of leagues ANALYSIS: Matisse Thybulle has grabbed hold of the starting SF role and he's just not surrendering it ROS. That said, MT's minutes have been a bit shaky of late ranging from 16 to 34 in the past couple of weeks of play. Thybulle... Read More
Kevin Huerter (SG, ATL): Week 24 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 48% of leagues ANALYSIS: The Hawks threw both Washington and New York out of play-in contention, locked into the pre-post-season at the very least, and most of that had to do with the late exploits of Atlanta's Red Mamba Kevin Huerter. Nothing new here, as Huerter... Read More
Killian Hayes (PG/SG, DET): Week 24 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 27% of leagues ANALYSIS: While Killian Hayes started all games (34 of them) to kick his second pro-season off, he's only done so three more times since Jan. 23. Nothing wrong with that, though, at least at the point we find ourselves into the season. That's... Read More
Alec Burks (SG, NYK): Week 24 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 59% of leagues ANALYSIS: I know I'm going a little bit over the fifty-rostership self-imposed limit here, but it's the last week of the regular season so let's give it a bit of room to breathe. If you can still find Burks available for free, and... Read More
Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (4/1/22)
I should have known that I couldn't stay red hot for too long! I followed up Monday's clean sweep with a rather lackluster 5-6 outing on Wednesday. It could have been worse, but I hit a decent amount of props and managed to break even - which sometimes feels like a win when things go... Read More

We're in the endgame now! No player is off-limits to be dropped (apart from those on the "can't drop list" if you play with that option turned on) for streaming purposes if you think he won't contribute enough to be worthy of that precious roster spot on your championship-caliber team! As always, I have taken... Read More
Free NBA Betting Picks - Today's Best Bets, Expert Predictions, Odds (3/28/22)
It's always easier writing this article on the day after a solid return on our bets from the previous day. Yesterday I went 2-1 on spreads and 1-1 on totals, but a 4-1 mark on props put it over the top and made it a solid, profitable day and I hope that you were able... Read More

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

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 38% of leagues ANALYSIS: Nobody was thinking about Houston flipping things from black to white in a single season, and we were all correct with that easy-peasy prediction to make. The Rockets are on their way to another top-3 pick next June, and that's good! Nothing... Read More
Oshae Brissett (SF/PF, IND): Week 23 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 33% of leagues ANALYSIS: I'm tired of this whole "Indiana never tanks" narrative. You tell me what the Pacers are doing if not tanking with their current 13th seed out East and putrid 25-49 record at press time on Saturday. Good for the Pacers, though, is... Read More
Trendon Watford (SF, POR): Week 23 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 56% of leagues ANALYSIS: You can look at Trendon Watford's game log through the 2022 season and easily spot the turning point in the Blazers' campaign and their goals.

Jose Alvarado (PG, NOP): Week 23 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 12% of leagues ANALYSIS: You have to be happy for Jose Alvarado and his underdog story.

Obi Toppin (SF/PF, NYK): Week 23 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 8% of leagues ANALYSIS: Is it finally happening? Are the New York Knicks finally going to do it? After a year and a half, is Coach Thibs willing to play Obi Toppin once for all? We gotta give that thought a little bit of pause given... Read More
Isaiah Roby (PF/C, OKC): Week 23 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 17% of leagues ANALYSIS: Tale of two completely different seasons that of Isaiah Roby.
