BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 2% of leagues ANALYSIS: There is a thing called improvement that happens often in the NBA.

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 55% of leagues ANALYSIS: It's been 16 consecutive starts and counting for Bruce Brown at the Nets SF position.

Bones Hyland (PG/SG, DEN): Week 22 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 25% of leagues ANALYSIS: Was Jamal Murray's injury a blessing in disguise?

Brandon Clarke (PF, MEM): Week 22 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 36% of leagues ANALYSIS: Brandon Clarke's minutes have gone down a bit in the past two games, but there should be nothing to worry about regarding that as he's one of the NBA's true super-subs and he should stay on that path. Memphis is currently seeded... Read More

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 35% of leagues ANALYSIS: The Knicks defeated Washington last Friday and that meant they leapfrogged the Wiz in pursuit of the last play-in seed out of the East.

Jaxson Hayes (C, NOP): Week 22 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 27% of leagues ANALYSIS: With the Blazers tanking and the Spurs incapable of doing a lot, it's possible that New Orleans ends making it all the way to the postseason with either the 9th or 10th seed depending on how erratically the Lakers play ROS. With... Read More
Mason Plumlee (PF/C, CHA): Week 22 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues ROSTERED IN: 52% of leagues ANALYSIS: Saturday was a sad day. Facing the Mavs, Mason Plumlee couldn't crack the 15-FP barrier.

Welcome back, NBA betting enthusiasts! Wednesday was a 3-3 night with player props picking up the slack both the Hawks and Warriors let us down on spreads.

Well, I knew yesterday's slate was tough or maybe I just took the hard road by betting on two underdogs who promptly went out and both got throttled at home.
