We’re almost a quarter of the way through the season and I know some of you still haven’t tried daily fantasy games yet.  Why not?   If your season long league team is sucking like a few of mine are and injuries have taken their toll, it’s time to start fresh by drafting a completely new team every day.  No need to worry about your guys getting benched or hurt, just dump them and start over with a new team tomorrow!

Wednesday’s NBA Schedule, Probable Starting Lineups, Lines, Injuries and Daily Cash Game Picks

New Jersey @ Philadelphia (11.5)  191.5  Total
NJN:  D. Williams, A. Morrow, D. Stevenson, K. Humphries, M. Okur
PHI:  J. Holiday, J. Meeks/E. Turner, A. Iguodala, E. Brand, T. Battie

  • MarShon Brooks is a gametime decision with an achilles injury.  The Nets started DeShawn Stevenson in place of Brooks in Monday’s game.
  • Spencer Hawes is a gametime decision, but he’s probably out.
  • Nikola Vucevic is a gametime decision.
  • Elton Brand is really picking it up lately with the Sixers big men hurting.  Look for Brand to have another good game against a weak New Jersey interior.
  • Damion James is out for the year, which is good news for MarShon Brooks owners.
  • Daily Fantasy Game Pick:  Elton Brand $6900

Fantasy Basketball Daily Pre-Game Report for Tuesday, January 24

Tuesday’s NBA Schedule, Starting Lineups, Odds, Injuries, Sit/Start Picks

Orlando @ Indiana (-3)     183 Total
ORL:  J. Nelson, J. Richardson, H. Turkoglu, R. Anderson, D. Howard
IND:  D. Collison, P. George, D. Granger, D. West, R. Hibbert

  • The Roy Hibbert / Dwight Howard matchup should be fun to watch.  Hibbert could give Howard some problems.  Look for Howard to get hacked in this one too.
  • David West is recovering from a stiff neck, but will play and could put up a solid line against Ryan Anderson.
  • Hedo Turkoglu returned Monday from a back injury, but put up a fairly weak line.  Be cautious using him tonight.

WAS:  J. Wall, N. Young, C. Singleton, A. Blatche, J. McGee
PHI:  J. Holiday, (E. Turner/J. Meeks), A. Iguodala, E. Brand, S. Hawes

  • With Elton Brand, Spencer Hawes and Nikola Vucevic all out, I’d definitely give the Wizards +13 a bet.
  • Nikola Vucevic is out Monday.
  • Spencer Hawes is out Monday. 
  • Thaddeus Young could see some extra minutes with the Sixers’ big men hurting. 
  • Elton Brand is a gametime decision with gastroenteritis.  More minutes for Young.

Fantasy Basketball Daily Pre-Game Report for Sunday, January 22

Daily Rosters lock early at 1:00 PM EST today, so don’t forget.  News is sketchy this morning, but I’m posting what I’ve got prior to the 1:00 PM tipoff.  If you are going to play daily cash games, I’d probably avoid the 1:00 PM games and focus on the smaller schedule tonight. 

I’ll post updates for tonight’s games in the Twitter Feed on the right side of the Homepage.

Fanduel has Daily Fantasy Football Cash Games and Tournaments up today.  It’s the last weekend for their fantasy football games.

 

Boston (-4.5) @ Washington    185.5 Total
BOS:  A. Bradley, R. Allen, P. Pierce, K. Garnett, J. O’Neal
WAS:  J. Wall, N. Young, C. Singleton, A. Blatche, J. McGee

  • No word yet on Rajon Rondo, he made the trip, but there’s no guarantee he’ll play.  I’d assume he’s not going to play and Avery Bradley will get another start.
  • Jermaine O’Neal is dealing with a wrist injury, but should play.
  • John Wall could have a big line against the inexperienced Avery Bradley.
  • Keyon Dooling is doubtful.
