Jan Rey has been following basketball way before he knew how to write cursive letters. He is also an ardent fantasy basketball participant since 2003 and has won two private All-Filipino 20-team leagues way back when.
The Studs Domantas Sabonis, PF/C, Pacers Yahoo: $44; DraftKings: $9,200; FanDuel: $9,200 If not for the knee injury he suffered in the Raptors game, Sabonis would have had better averages. Well, he did come back with a vengeance-- a triple-double no less against Charlotte. We know the Hornets are not stopping dynamic interior players like Domas so feel free to tap his services. Nikola Jokic, C, Nuggets Yahoo: $54; DraftKings: $10,100; FanDuel: $11,200 The worst that Jokic could do is the low-40s Read More
The Studs Domantas Sabonis, PF/C, Indiana Pacers Domas is as sure as it gets when it comes to DFS production. The lowest score that he got in 10 games is 39 FP and had three outings with over 50 FP. He is averaging 23 points, 14 rebounds, and 4.8 dimes over the past five games. Pascal Siakam, PF, Toronto Raptors After an awful start to the season and stretching back to the bubble games, Siakam is beginning to switch gears. He has now reached 50 FP in three of the last four including his first Read More
1.) Tacko Fall, C, Boston Celtics Yahoo: $10; DraftKings: $3,300; FanDuel: $3,900 The Celtics are so short-handed right now that Fall made a rare appearance against Washington two nights ago and did not disappoint (4 points, 8 rebounds, 3 blocks). I'm not sure how he would match up against a very quick Heat frontcourt, but if he'll get 15-20 minutes a night, he'll probably give you over one fantasy point per minute. 2.) Payton Pritchard, PG, Boston Celtics Yahoo: $13; DraftKings: $4,700; FanDuel: Read More
1.) Trey Burke, PG, Dallas Mavericks Yahoo: $10; DraftKings: $3,000; FanDuel: $4,100 Half of Dallas' backcourt rotation is out-- Jalen Brunson and Josh Richardson-- so that leaves Trey Burke as the only feasible choice. This still not etched in stone, but he is still the best candidate as a punt play Saturday night. 2.) Cole Anthony, PG, Orlando Magic Yahoo: $14; DraftKings: $5,500; FanDuel: $4,800 Speaking of a depleted backcourt, I don't if the Orlando Magic even has one. Markelle Fultz will Read More
Out of all sneaker attributes, basketball players are suckers for traction. For some, it can even be a deal-breaker. No matter how firm and bouncy the cushion is or no matter how premium the materials are, it would not make it in the regular rotation of basketball shoes if it won’t bite the floor the way it should. Who makes it in the list of the best basketball shoes for traction ? Let’s take a look. Best Basketball Shoes for Traction: Tier 3 Anta GH1 Nobody pays attention to Chinese Read More
1.) LaMelo Ball, PG, Charlotte Hornets Yahoo: $22; DraftKings: $5,600; FanDuel: $6,400 I still wouldn't completely trust Melo but after three super games, he deserves come consideration especially at Yahoo and DraftKings. He is averaging 16.7 points, 5 rebounds, 5.3 dimes, and totaled 10 "stocks" in the past three games. We also saw him in lineups with both Terry Rozier and Devonte Graham, so the sky is the limit for Melo at this point forward. 2.) Eric Gordon, SG/SF, Houston Rockets Yahoo: $19; Read More
Lots of surprises early on this season, making it more exciting to play NBA DFS. The Darius Garlands, the Mason Plumlees, and the Tyrese Haliburtons, continue to be on a roll, so who from among the ranks of the low salaries could step up and help you bag a win? Let's find out. 1.) Tyus Jones, PG, Grizzlies Yahoo: $10; DraftKings: $5,200; $5,800 Problems require solutions and for Memphis Grizzlies and injured star point guard Ja Morant, you have to replace him in that starting lineup with his backup.

The ability to jump high is an invaluable asset in basketball. When you are finishing for layups (or dunks) and grabbing rebounds, having that extra spring on your jump is definitely an advantage. That is why adding inches to your vertical jump could possibly raise your game to a different level. Fortunately, there are exercises and drills that can help you do just that. If you want to find out more about these, please read on so you'll know how to jump higher. How to Jump Higher: Breaking Read More
It was 3 out of 5 for me, as far as the best bargain options last night are concerned, but if you count Darius Garland and Keldon Johnson, I'm 5-for-7. Not bad at all. If you did select Sato, that's an automatic loss for you, though. Satoransky only 3 points, 1 rebound, and three assists over 20 minutes. Nicolas Batum wasn't any better as the Clippers got knocked out by Dallas, 142-73. The Frenchman had a disappointing 4-6-1 line but the rest of his teammates sucked as well. Side note: 51 points Read More
It was a night of hits and misses, but at least you and me, I should say, could see the misses coming from a mile away. What I'm talking about was the dismal performances of top rookies Isaac Okoro and Patrick Williams. Okoro did not score in the OT game vs Detroit and only came up with three rebounds and a steal. Even so, the fifth overall pick played 41 minutes in a close game! Talking about trust. On the other hand, Williams finished with nine points, two rebounds, an assist, and a block in 22 Read More
