Alex Burns's Fantasy Basketball Rankings (Categories): Top 250 for 2024-2025 Drafts

Here we are, folks -- almost to the finish line! After what seemed like possibly the fastest offseason in NBA history (we say this every year), we are a few weeks out from watching real NBA hoops. And that can only mean one thing: fantasy basketball is back, baby! The NBA offseason delivered its usual […]

2024 NBA Draft Night: First Round Winners

The first round of the 2024 NBA Draft is in the books. It wasn’t the best of draft classes, but it also made for an unpredictable evening with no consensus top overall player. Some big splashes were made leading up to the draft, including the Knicks trading for Mikal Bridges and re-signing OG Anunoby. There […]

2024 NBA Draft Night: First Round Losers

The first round of the 2024 NBA Draft is in the books, and as we expected, there were plenty of unexpected picks in what most analysts consider the worst draft in terms of overall talent in recent years. Some teams like Washington, Minnesota, and Utah were able to secure multiple players and are being lauded […]


The Cut List - Who To Drop For Fantasy Basketball Week 17

So, that NBA All-Star Weekend was truly something, huh? I'm not sure whether or not to cheer that it's over or be sad that it ever happened. Either way, we're entering the most drama-filled part of the NBA season and that is cause for excitement. Not only for the NBA but for fantasy basketball leagues […]


The Cut List - Who To Drop for Fantasy Basketball Week 16

The NBA trade deadline has finally come and gone! Unfortunately, there weren't many fireworks this time around. We didn't even see Zach LaVine, DeMar DeRozan, or Dejounte Murray get moved. So excuse me while I call the NBA customer service line for my money back. Where's the reality show level of drama?! You know what? […]


The Cut List - Who To Drop for Fantasy Basketball Week 15

You know what time it is, RotoBallers! It's that time of the week to bring out the cut list for fantasy basketball!

The Cut List - Who To Drop for Fantasy Basketball Week 12

Welcome back, RotoBallers! We're inching closer and closer to the NBA All-Star break as voting returns are causing debates about which players actually deserve to play in a meaningless game compared to others.

We're back again for another cut list, RotoBallers!

2023-2024 Fantasy Basketball: Preseason Risers and Fallers

A key skill in fantasy basketball is being able to weed through the noise. Just because a rotation player dropped 30 points in a preseason game doesn't mean that it will translate to the regular season. The inverse is also true. Poor performances in exhibition games shouldn't force us to overreact negatively. Being able to […]

2023 NBA Summer League Winners And Losers: Guards

Now that the 2023 NBA summer league action has wrapped up, we can review some winners and losers from this summer.

So, Rotoballers, we've gone from the NBA Draft to free agency to summer league and now we have a bit of a dead period with the next part of NBA basketball being training camp. Sure, there's also the FIBA World Cup approaching, but a lot of the hype is going to be around workout videos […]
