Lot of injuries out there tonight and with the All Star break only a couple of days away, I’m guessing teams will be very cautious in bringing back some those guys who are banged up. Looks like there is going to be sleeper opportunities with the Celtics, Hawks, and T-Wolves. Best of luck and here are some picks for tonight. Read More

Happy Tuesday everyone! We only have 3 more days of games until the dreaded All-Star break where we won’t have daily fantasy basketball for 5 days. Talk about torture. I used to get excited about All-Star weekend, but now because of daily fantasy sports I would much rather watch a regular season Nets and Bucks game. (Read More)

We’re already half way through the season and the NBA All-Star game is coming up this weekend. There’s only four days of fantasy basketball this week and you definitely want to be careful out there Wednesday and Thursday just in case any coaches get the bright idea of giving some of the stars an extra day or two of rest by holding them out in this last game before the break. I’m not positive it will happen that much, but it’s just something to watch out for. I’ve got a handful of guys who could put up solid lines this week at reasonable salaries, so hopefully you can fill your roster around them with studs. (Read More)

Happy Presidents Day! The NBA kicks off with a 4pm game with Chicago & Atlanta and has 10 more games on the schedule after that. Good chance Derrick Rose and Carmelo Anthony may see the court for the first time in a while today. It will be interesting to see if Melo changes the statistical output of Lin or if his incredible run continues. (Read More)

Sunday has a full slate of games which means lots of different options at each position. Today these picks will be based on Draftstreet salaries, but the players should also still be good plays on other daily fantasy sites depending on their salaries. Here are today’s plays: (Read More)

This Saturday we have four games on the schedule, so there is a shallower player pool to select from than usual. There’s also a 3:30 start-time which adds some risk/reward dynamic to the players you pick based on what injury information is available prior to tip-off. Two days ago Danny Granger decided to play last-minute, and helped those that played him win some of the GPPs. Last night, DeMarcus Cousins was a great risk-reward player that most of the field didn’t have. Here are some picks to keep your eye on today: (Read More)

Welcome back to another week of the Grinder Leaderboard and Rankings Update. We have reached the time in the year where there are two major focuses in the sports world, hockey and basketball. Yes there are PGA events out there for DFS gamblers, but those aren’t daily like the NHL, NBA and CBB games. So what we are seeing in the rankings is a derivative of the success that these players have in those three fields. Unlike December and January, where the sports world was running rampant and players were moving up and down the board like crazy, there is a time of peace where we can see who the true experts of basketball and hockey really are. So let’s jump into some headlines, shout outs and general info about the rankings this week. (Read More)

11 games on the schedule for Friday night and there should be major Guaranteed Prize Pool tournaments on most of the Daily Fantasy sites this evening.

While there is certain to be a little overlap in your opponents lineups today, there are enough options available to present you with some challenging choices today. Make the right ones…you win. Make the wrong ones, well let’s not let that happen. Here are RG’s picks for today. (Read More)

If you’ve been playing fantasy hockey on Draftstreet for very long, you’re likely aware that it’s a common strategy to underspend on defense in order to save cap space for the more lucrative positions. On average, a defenseman will give you half the value of a forward, so it only makes sense to budget accordingly. The problem is that you still have to fill those spots, and you don’t want to completely write off the position. This week, I’ll highlight some of best bargains on defense that will barely register in terms of cap hits. I’ll also highlight a few exceptional defensemen that are worth taking a chance and spending a little more on when setting your lineup. (Read More)
