After his 30-point performance on Saturday, look for Jeremy Sochan as the Spurs host the Wizards at 8 p.m. ET. There are eight games in the NBA on Monday, but we could be missing several stars. The Lakers will be playing the first game of a back-to-back set when they face the Nets, so they have decided to rule out LeBron James (ankle) and Anthony Davis (foot). Luka Doncic (ankle) did not play Saturday against the Jazz and is questionable for the Mavericks’ matchup against the… Source link

LeBron James is only a few games from NBA history. (Paul Rutherford-USA TODAY Sports) LeBron James keeps moving forward, even on nights where he ends regulation in open disgust with the officials. James entered Saturday night’s game against the Boston Celtics needing just 158 points to pass Kareem Abdul-Jabbar as the NBA’s all-time scoring leader. He finished the night with 41 points on 15-of-30 shooting (6-of-12 from deep) with nine rebounds and eight assists. James is now only 117 points… Source link

After Jordan Poole missed a deep jumper attempt early in the shot clock with the Golden State Warriors leading by two points with under two minutes remaining in the fourth quarter, Steph Curry appeared frustrated.  Following Poole’s miss, Curry threw his mouthpiece while running back on defense and was quickly ejected for the third time in his career. By rule, throwing anything toward the crowd triggers an ejection.  Despite his miss before Curry’s ejection, Poole got a chance at… Source link

Domantas Sabonis and the Kings host the Raptors on Monday night. We have a big 10-game slate on tap Wednesday night that features plenty of marquee matchups and no shortage of elevated projected totals. Both are certainly potential good news from a DFS perspective, as it implies key players should see big minutes, and there could be an abundance of highly productive individual performances as well. As customary, we’ll highlight multiple advantageous positional matchups to exploit at each… Source link
