Fantasy basketball tips and projections for Friday
The best places to look for those are probably in Detroit, Portland, Washington, Houston, Utah, San Antonio, Charlotte and Atlanta. If you paid attention on Thursday’s podcast, we were all about Chimezie Metu and, later on, Marcus Sasser and they both kind of went off. Metu had 15 points, eight boards, three assists and three […]

Much like the last time I wrote this outlook (Friday), all 30 teams are in action Sunday, which is the final day of the regular season, so no one in the world should have trouble fielding a full fantasy team for the finale. However, doing it with productive players might be a little iffy, as […]

In a continuation of moves made this spring, the Colts have signed star defensive tackle DeForest Buckner to an extension Monday.

I’m diving into this one thinking we’ll make it a Silly Season Warriors edition, because for most of us, there’s no point in steering the car now.

WASHINGTON — Count LeBron James among the scores of viewers tuning into the women’s NCAA tournament this spring. The Los Angeles Lakers forward, considered by many to be the face of the NBA, has a theory on why women’s college hoops is having such a moment: the star power. “I don’t think there’s much difference […]

Boston has lost consecutive games against the Atlanta Hawks since its nine-game winning streak. It will take a team effort for the Celtics to beat the Pelicans, who have won 10 of their past 13 games. Let’s take a look at my first recommendation, which comes from this game.

For instance, the New Orleans Pelicans won’t have Brandon Ingram in the lineup for today’s tilt with the Boston Celtics.

Even the absence of backup point guard Jose Alvarado propels increased value for this 3-and-D duo, as […]

The first of Thursday’s tandem has the Boston Celtics at State Farm Arena to face the Atlanta Hawks. The top-seeded Celtics are massive road favorites (-16.5 at ESPN BET), even with Al Horford and Jrue Holiday listed as questionable. The talented, if top heavy, Boston rotation hasn’t afforded many opportunities for streaming value this season, […]

CJ McCollum over 21.5 points. The Bucks have struggled to defend against perimeter shooters all season, which plays into McCollum’s favor. He has scored over 21.5 points in three consecutive games, averaging 21 field goal attempts per game. With Brandon Ingram ruled out, further boosting McCollum should have a big night against a Bucks team […]
