Gonzaga might have gone 31-1 and, but Mark Few and staff are already loaded with talent for next year.

The new transfer rule has created new postseason chaos for college basketball with over 1,300 players in the transfer portal. Will bluebloods Kentucky, Duke and North Carolina bounce back next year? What about UCLA… Source link

Yahoo has become one of my favorite sites to play on. The salary format is different than its counterparts and they tend to leave players’ salaries steady for quite some time. That leaves the door open to plenty of value, and that’s definitely the case on this slate. While we have seven games in total, only four make up the nightcap. There’s a lot to discuss with those games, so let’s get into it!  Guards  Bogdan Bogdanovic, ATL vs. GS ($22)  If you can explain this $22 tag by Yahoo, I’d… Source link

I have never felt overwhelmed by sports at any point in my life, but this weekend is pushing it. We have full slates in NBA and MLB all weekend long while getting the Final Four as well. That doesn’t even include some of the other obscure sports going on, but we’re totally zoned in on the NBA right now with the season winding to an end. There’s a lot to talk about on this slate, though, so let’s get into it! Guards Luka Doncic, DAL at WAS ($54) What if I told you one of the best players in… Source link

GUARDS Fred VanVleet, TOR vs. GS ($39): The Raptors will be missing one of their stars for this game with Kyle Lowry (foot) out. The last two games he missed, VanVleet scored 40 and 58.3 Yahoo points, respectively. This is a tough spot for the Warriors, having to play the second… Source link

Thursday brings seven games in the NBA, including an exciting matchup between the Nuggets and Clippers. Also, we have another chance to win some money on Yahoo. Here are some players to consider for your lineups, as well as a few to potentially avoid.

After a quiet Tuesday, the NBA storms back with 10 games on the schedule Wednesday. There are some exciting matchups among the bunch, including the Celtics hosting the Mavericks.

Tuesday brings a light slate in the NBA consisting of only four games. We won’t have as many viable options to choose from in DFS, but that doesn’t mean that you can’t finish the evening with a winning entry.

INDIANAPOLIS – This entire NCAA tournament has doubled as a time warp. The games end, and the digital pages flip back to find distant precedents and snapshots of bygone eras. With seemingly every team that advances, there’s a corresponding stroll through the past. The final DeLorean spin came at historic Hinkle Fieldhouse when No. 2 Houston smothered Syracuse with a rugged man-to-man defense in a 62-46 win. That marked Houston’s first trip to the Elite Eight since 1984, with Kelvin… Source link

To say this Sunday slate is a slow one would be an understatement. We only have four games with three making up the night slate. That would usually be very frustrating, but most of the matchups are fascinating. Four of the six teams made a huge move at the trade deadline on Thursday, while the Lakers look like a shell of themselves because of injuries. That means there’s going to be plenty of value, so let’s get into it!   Guards  Dennis Schroder, LAL vs. ORL ($25) The Lakers are in a tough… Source link
