Ah, the middle of December. It's not quite Christmas, but the pressure is still there. Hopefully by now you are holding up just fine and ready to move up the rankings in your fantasy basketball league. If you have one of the Fantasy Studs listed below, or maybe Anthony Davis on your squad, who just dropped a monster 50 point, seven rebound, six assist, and four steals game, then you might not be feeling any pressure at all right now. Whatever the case may be, don't get bogged

Alright folks, nap time is over! You've stuffed your face full of turkey, now it's time to get serious as we begin the final stretch of the year. It's not time to be reflective, or to be thankful, it's time to get your game face on and embrace one of the busiest times of the year. Don't get left behind in the hoopla between Thanksgiving and Christmas, buckle up, and embrace the wild ride. Fantasy Studs Five guys who stood out this week from the rest. Erik Williams-USA Today J

Tim Heitman-USA Today As we enter this Thanksgiving week, looking at your fantasy team, are you thankful or are you just ready for a break? Is your team stuffing the stat sheet like a turkey, or is your team just sitting there awkwardly like canned cranberry on the plate everyone is avoiding? If you have one of our fantasy studs below, there is a good chance you are coming into this week with good things to reflect on. If you happen to have one of our fantasy duds below, mayb

We look at week 4 of the NBA, some highs, some lows, and 0 possible guys to keep on your radar for your fantasy basketball team.

Brad Mills-USA TODAY Sports The Washington Wizards were already in a tough spot to close out 2018. They were not close at all to matching pre-season expectations and finished the year with a very disappointing 14 – 23 record. To make matters worse, John Wall, their All-Star point guard, was recently shut down; a season-ending left heel surgery was the reason for the team’s latest setback. Wall was averaging 20.7 points, 8.7 assists, and 1.5 steals on 44.4% field goal shooting

Via. NBA.com The Memphis Grizzlies returned home Wednesday night following a crazy two game split on the East coast. Memphis pulled out a tough double overtime victory against the Nets in Brooklyn, only to fall a run short two nights later in Philadelphia against the revamped 76ers. During that East coast road trip, Memphis added an All-Star and former Defensive Player of the Year to their roster to bolster their depth. The addition of Joakim Noah to the Memphis Grizzlies cou

Via. Sports Illustrated After 24 games of his fourth season as the Chicago Bulls head coach, Fred Hoiberg found himself jobless early Monday. The Bulls front office had seen enough, preferring the guiding hand of Hoiberg’s associate head coach Jim Boylen, a member of the Gregg Popovich coaching tree and a coach under Hoiberg since 2015. But this story isn’t about Hoiberg, and it’s only a little about Boylen; this is a story of team mismanagement from the front-office down, so

Via. USAToday Quietly, Lonzo Ball is starting to change the narrative around his play. For the past few games, dating back to the Los Angeles Lakers’ meeting with the Cleveland Cavaliers, Ball has been playing with an ingredient many believe he has lacked: aggression. And he’s doing so with more consistency. Last year, Ball had games in which he made it a point to attack the basket, but he could never string those types of games together. For the last two weeks, his aggressio

The Undefeated Ever do a deep dive into NBA stats on basketball-reference.com? You could get lost in there for days. Comparing modern stars to their legendary forebears, really bearing down on the similarity metrics to see which players your favorite ballers most closely emulate, embracing the minutiae of advanced stats: these are just a few of my favorite things. But I'm really partial to splits, where the stats are easily divisible: how does a player play at home vs. on the

As we head into the hot and dry month of August, over at Off the Glass we are pushing out more new content to keep you occupied this summer! On this week's roundtable the OTG staff make their picks for their least favorite free agent signing.

However, he is 33 years old and has missed more than 20 games the last two seasons. At the

With free agency nearing it's end, here are a few of the OTG's staff favorite signings of 2018. Julius Randle Photo Courtesy of Silver Screen and Roll Evan Dyal - @EvanDyal Free agency is all about value.Is the player you signed worth the contract you gave him? I know, duh, but every year we see overpays, shout out to Zach LaVine in Chicago. I could say LeBron James to the Los Angeles Lakers is the best signing because he is the best player, but that is too obvious. For me i

1. Wayne Ellington Photo Courtesy of Palm Beach Post In a league that prioritizes shooting, it is a bit perplexing that no one has scooped up Ellington yet. Ellington took awhile to find his footing in the NBA, but is coming off a career year with the Miami Heat. Perhaps Ellington wants too much in a cold market, and that is why he is still on the market, but he is a player that can help a lot of teams. The Miami Heat for one would love to have him back, as he is their only t
