Yahoo NBA DFS Breakdown: Monday, June 13

Yahoo NBA DFS Breakdown: Monday, June 13

Jayson Tatum and the Celtics head into Golden State for Game 5 with the series tied at 2-2. That Game 4 was one of the best games all season.

That means we’re down to a best-of-three championship, and it’s nearly impossible to predict what will happen next! With that said, we’ll try our best to project the players from a Yahoo perspective, so let’s start by looking at the injury… Source link

Yahoo NBA DFS Breakdown: Friday, June 10

Jayson Tatum and the Celtics host the Warriors for Game 4 leading the series 2-1.  Golden State made a third-quarter run to make it competitive, but it felt like Boston would never lose Game 3 after a dominating opening frame.

NBA Finals Game 4 Picks

This article is part of our Yahoo DFS Basketball series. The Celtics took care of business at home in Game 3 earning a 16-point win over the Warriors. It wasn’t as easy as the final score would seem to indicate as the Warriors actually stormed back and took the lead in the third quarter. If Golden State’s going to even things up on the road, they’re going to need a better performance from Draymond Green after he only produced two points, four rebounds and three assists before fouling… Source link

NBA investigation into Robert Sarver ‘getting close to the end’

In November, ESPN’s Baxter Holmes published a bombshell report that included more than 70 current and former team employees’ claims against Sarver. Among them was Sarver allegedly using the N-word repeatedly, discussing sexually explicit topics in the… Source link

Adam Silver talks shortening NBA season to fewer than 82 games

Adam Silver talks shortening NBA season to fewer than 82 games

The 82-game NBA season has been in place since 1967-68, but has come under scrutiny recently, with the flames being stoked most notably by commissioner Adam Silver. Silver is pushing for an in-season tournament to generate more interest and certainly more revenue. The tournament would lead to shortening the season. But it seems he could be running the risk of devaluing the regular season by pressing for more incentivized games before the playoffs. “I recognize that could always be a concern… Source link

Yahoo NBA DFS Breakdown: Wednesday, June 8

Stephen Curry and the Warriors head into Boston for Game 3 with the series tied at 1-1. This series is right where we want it to be! It was shocking to see Golden State blow Game 1, but they bounced back with a dominating victory in Game 2. The swings in each individual quarter have been a fascinating aspect of this series, and it’s fun watching these defenses go off for such long stretches. All of that has us ready to go back to Boston with this series all tied up. With that in mind,… Source link
