The NBA brings a fairly quiet slate to the table Thursday that consists of only four games. The big news surrounding the matchup between the Nets and Sixers is that Kevin Durant is expected to return to the floor after dealing with COVID-19. Kyrie Irving was also activated from the health and safety protocols, but he still is working his way back into shape. The game is being played in Brooklyn, so he wouldn’t have been eligible to play, anyway, given that he is not vaccinated. The… Source link

As far as Tuesdays go, we have a busy one with eight games scheduled. COVID-19 continues to sideline players at an alarming rate, making for some ugly depth charts across the league. On the bright side, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reported Monday that players can clear quarantine after six days, instead of the previous 10-day mark. That could lead to significant reinforcements coming for some teams. One who could use the help is the Warriors, who saw Draymond Green join their list of players… Source link

The Christmas Day slate was fantastic. It felt like there were a handful of players on every team with way too cheap salaries, and that’s going to continue with COVID protocols dropping every day. The DFS sites can’t keep their valuation in line with the ever-changing rotations, which means it’s a great time to play. There’s a lot to discuss with today’s card, so let’s go ahead and get into it. Guards Tyrese Haliburton, SAC vs. MEM ($30) Haliburton got off to a slow start this season, but he’s… Source link

Season-long leagues are winding down — some may even have crowned their champion — but fantasy owners who need their fix can turn to daily fantasy football moving forward. We’re headed into Week 16 which means there are three more main slates remaining in 2021. Our Week 16 Yahoo DFS tournament picks include several low-price, high upside values, and we think we have the right configuration to take a shot at the top spot in GPP tournaments.  We’re also calling… Source link

COVID has been wreaking havoc on our country for over 18 months, and it’s obliterating the NBA right now. It feels like 10 different players get put in COVID protocols every day, making it tough to figure out what these rotations will look like. The only bit of good news about it is that it opens up some value for some cheaper guys, making DFS lineups a little easier to fill out. We certainly have some of our recommendations stepping into more prominent roles, so let’s go ahead and get into… Source link

The 10th round of the free-to-enter NHL Yahoo Cup runs on Thursday, and there’s still time to join the contest and win your share of $5,000 if you haven’t already! There are 10 games on the slate, which gives daily fantasy managers lots of options to choose from. With a number of NHL teams dealing with COVID-19 outbreaks, however, it’s extremely important to monitor the status of all players until the puck drops. Here are three lineup options I recommend playing for this round of the… Source link

Paying up at the quarterback position isn’t a move we go out of our way to make very often. However, Kyler Murray has as much upside as anyone at the quarterback position, and we can include him in our Week 15 Yahoo DFS tournament picks without sacrificing elsewhere. Since we’re playing in GPP tournaments, we’ll have our fair share of guys with low floors and high ceilings, but that’s part of it. We’re also calling on a few chalky DFS plays, but we’ll have… Source link

This week has been very good to me, and I’m ready to roll today. After large slates Friday and Saturday, we’re down to just six games. We actually only have four making up the main slate beginning at 7 p.m. ET. I know many of you will be zoned into fantasy football because this is playoff week, but it’s also an excellent time to throw down on some NBA. Without further ado, let’s get into the premier plays. Guards Dejounte Murray, SAN vs. NOP ($42) Murray is becoming one of my favorite players… Source link

Last weekend was one of my better weeks of the year over at Yahoo, and I really feel like we’re getting a good read on their pricing. They tend to be a bit slower than the other sites to raise a player’s price, and that’s certainly the case here. Our first recommendation is a guy that needs a price bump, so let’s go ahead and get into it! Guards Darius Garland, CLE vs. SAC ($29) Seeing Garland below $30 made my jaw drop. This guy has been one of the breakout players in the NBA, averaging 34 Y!… Source link

The NBA closes out the work week with nine games on the schedule Friday. There is the potential for a couple of lopsided affairs when the Bucks play the Rockets and the Lakers take on the Thunder. However, there are also several exciting matchups, including the Hawks hosting the Nets. Kevin Durant should be fresh for that matchup after sitting out Wednesday’s battle with the Rockets for rest purposes. The main Yahoo slate will consist of seven of the nine games, so let’s highlight some… Source link
