18 teams in action Friday, with plenty of potential for streaming value across the league. Owners need to factor in that they may not have a spare roster spot with so many games on the slate, but nonetheless, the value is there. Luke Kennard appears to have finally secured himself a sizeable role in the Detroit rotation and could be set for a strong finish to the season. I will look at Kennard as well as those other fringe players taking to the floor, endeavoring to dig up the value lying just under the surface. Not…

With the fantasy basketball trade deadline just around the corner, I thought I would delve a bit deeper into the finer points of executing a good trade. I’ll run through a few tips and strategies you should employ before hitting that button. A trade is a move that can potentially have a huge impact on your fantasy season. As in reality, a trade has to be seen to be beneficial to both sides. However, there are ways you can make a trade appear two-sided, but in fact, benefit you more than your opponent. Not using…

Only three games Thursday as the league heads into the All-Star break. With very little to choose from, I take a look at all six teams in action, with a couple of potential streaming options on such a low-volume day. E’Twaun Moore returned Tuesday, scoring 19 points in 26 minutes and is one player to consider if you need a boost heading into the break. Not using Fantrax to host your fantasy basketball league?

Just 10 teams in action across the NBA as the all-star break draws ever nearer. The New Orleans Pelicans will host the Orlando Magic and while all the talk has been around Anthony Davis, Kenrich Williams has been quietly making a name for himself. He has established himself as the starting power forward and has played at least 30 minutes in seven straight games. He has the ability to put up numbers in multiple categories and is one of the more intriguing stories to come out of the season thus far. I will run down all five…

A busy Monday brings with it nine games across the NBA, including a number of players still trying to acclimate themselves into their new teams' structures. The Miami Heat will face the Denver Nuggets on the second night of a back-to-back, buoyed by their impressive efforts against the Golden State Warriors. Dion Waiters has put together two strong performances after the Heat traded away Tyler Johnson and Wayne Ellington. He played 41 minutes Sunday and could prove a handy pickup if you need points and threes. I will look…

Only five games to navigate Sunday, with a number of teams still likely to run a few different rotations. The new players are yet to acclimate themselves into the structures which make adding anyone difficult. Jake Layman is certainly carving out a nice role in Portland and is worth a look on what is a low volume day. I will look at Layman as well as just a few others who could help you steal some categories on the final day of the week. Not using Fantrax to host your fantasy basketball league?

24 hours removed from a busy trade deadline, many impacted teams will take the floor with their new players on deck. Considering anyone a pickup in competitive leagues is fraught with risk given the uncertainty surrounding the rotations. The Memphis Grizzlies are perhaps the team posing the most questions, including who will start alongside Mike Conley. Delon Wright will likely find himself in a great position to be able to flirt with standard league value, however, a lot is dependant on the allocation of playing time. I…

Thursday's trade deadline was one of the more chaotic in recent memory with a number of players on the move. The impact of many of the trades is going to be felt across most fantasy formats and gauging players value moving forward is important. I will look at all the impactful trades, analyzing the players involved who could potentially see a change in their overall value. Not using Fantrax to host your fantasy basketball league?

After a Thursday dominated by what was a busy trade deadline, 16 teams will take to the court Friday. A number of players will be debuting for their new teams as well as a few returning from injury and rest. These new rotations and allotment of playing time make adding any player very difficult. That being said, there are plenty of potential streaming candidates including Tyler Johnson who was traded to the Suns. He has been listed as the starter for his new team and certainly has the ability to put up standard league value…

Just six games across the league Thursday with all attention firmly on the 3 pm trade deadline. With a number of potential moves yet to be made, picking up any player could come with an element of risk. Marc Gasol is a realistic chance to be moved making Ivan Rabb a strong speculative pickup. JaMychal Green is also questionable which will open up even more opportunity. I will breakdown a number of players who could have value, keeping in mind the rosters could look very different come game time. Not using Fantrax to…
