Monday finds about half of the NBA in action. The most intriguing matchup of the day is the Bulls-Nets in Brooklyn. Both teams are playing well and are battling for the third though fifth playoff spots in the Eastern Conference. Monday also means that the NBA action at DraftStreet is gearing up for another Wednesday 50K, with satellites from $1 to $11 are in the lobby. The 50K is the largest regular NBA contests in daily fantasy that I am
Today’s NBA schedule is split between two afternoon games and five evening contests. Starting us off will be the swooning Knicks, who will try to avoid another Sunday blowout, this time at the hands of the Bulls. DraftStreet has daily fantasy NBA contests including all seven games, closing early, and later one encompassing only the five evening starts. Irrespective of whether you prefer Salary Cap or Pick’em formats, there are large guaranteed prize pool (GPP) contests available. If you don’t
Several high scoring games in the NBA last night led to fat fantasy stat lines at DraftStreet : it took well over 300 DraftStreet points to get the top spots in most contests last night. Both Goran Dragic/PNX and Anthony Davis/NOP were game-time decisions last night, and both had monster games. Dragic made the Pelicans defense look silly. The Bulls reaffirmed their status as a rising power with a comfortable win over Dallas, while the Knicks’ swoon continued. The Spurs took
Another Big Wednesday has ended and several DraftStreet players are thousands of dollars richer. The third Wednesday 50K went off with 2,107 runners, not enough to avoid several thousand in overlay. The Magic ended their road losing streak and completed the Sixers’ February bagel (no wins, 11 losses). Golden State was manhandled by the Bulls, further proof that Chicago will be a danger team come playoff time. The Thunder lost their third straight home game, coinciding with the return of
Another Big Wednesday at DraftStreet is upon us, with $10,000 to shoot for in tonight’s 50K. There’s plenty of stars and sleepers to choose from, as 20 teams take to the NBA hardwood floors. In last night’s action, the Pacers took the Lakers to the woodshed in the second half, while the Timberwolves pulled away from the Suns. James Harden/HOU and the Rockets smashed the Kings, showing why they will be among the most dangerous teams to face come playoff
It is crystal clear who the worst team in the NBA is. With their fire sale, the Sixers have reached towards the limit of “how low can you go” in the NBA, as evidenced by the thrashing suffered at the hands of the lowly Bucks. And on home court, no less. There were no major upsets on the hardwood floors last night, withe the biggest “surprise” being the Jazz’s easy victory over the Celtics. The highlight tonight will be fringe
It turns out the Heat without LeBron James/MIA are still pretty good. They pulled away from the cold shooting Bulls in the fourth quarter as Dwayne Wade/MIA and Mario Chalmers/MIA led the way. Neither the Clippers nor the Thunder were interested in playing defense in the first half, and despite the determined play by Kevin Durant/OKC, the Jamal Crawford/LAC-led Clippers came through in crunch time. In the evening contests, the Wizards had a rare “easy” win over the Cavs, but
