Blake Griffin

Blake Griffin Now a Piston That doesn’t sound right, does it? After seven and a half seasons with the Clippers, Blake Griffin will now be playing some DEEEETROIT BASKETBALL. Sorry, I've always loved that chant they do. Early last week, the Clippers sent Griffin to the Pistons for Avery Bradley, Tobias Harris, Boban Marjanovic, and a first-round pick. For Griffin, the trade doesn't move the needle on his fantasy value very much. However, it certainly does for the three players heading to Hollywood in this deal. Other…

Welcome to 2018, a year where NBA players finally start staying healthy consistently ... I couldn't even type that with a straight face. We begin the new year with James Harden going down for several weeks. With his injury, now eight of the pre-season top-20 players have missed significant time so far this season. Significant time, meaning more than just a couple of games. When will it stop? Hopefully soon. I'm tired of my phone getting blown up with injury notifications. I get it, half my team is a game-time decision every…

It looks like we’re going to end 2017 on a positive note. Fantasy owners just got back Blake Griffin, Devin Booker, and Steph Curry, while the season debut of Isaiah Thomas is right around the corner.

I'm not included in that, but I'm sure I'd be pretty darn excited to get a player of his magnitude…

Injuries, injuries, and more injuries. Can everyone stop getting injured? That’d be great, thanks. We had several big names suffer injuries over the past week, including one of my personal favorites, Nikola Jokic. The Joker joins frontcourt teammate Paul Millsap on the shelf, which opens more playing time for someone we’ll discuss below. Joining the Denver Nuggets with frontcourt injury concerns are the Atlanta Hawks, who will be without both John Collins and Dewayne Dedmon for the next few weeks. The frontcourt injuries…

The forward position in fantasy basketball might not be as sexy or as much fun to draft as guard or center, but that doesn't mean there's not a boatload of talent here. Think of forwards like the safe, trust-worthy option you can be proud of and bring home to mom and dad. With that being said, there's a ton of fantasy studs here in the first few rounds. From a young stud whose name 98% of people can't say or spell to an aging king that seems as strong as ever. The talent goes on and on. There are a plethora of different…
