Fantasy Basketball: Schedule analysis plus start and sit recommendations for Week 14 of the 2020-21 NBA season

A week of good or bad matchups can make all the difference in Fantasy basketball. And before you make any kind of claim on the waiver wire or set any lineups for Week 14, you need to see what NBA Fantasy expert Mike Barner has to say. 

Barner is one of the most respected voices in the industry, whose work has appeared in Sports Illustrated and on Yahoo, RotoWire and KFFL. He's also been featured on ESPN Radio. He digs deep into the data, examining team trends and projecting game outcomes. If there's anybody who can spot an edge in a matchup or identify a player in position to break out, it's him.

Now, Barner has studied the upcoming NBA schedule and is sharing his best and worst matchups for Week 14 of Fantasy basketball. They'll help you figure out who to sit, start, add, and drop this week. 

One thing we can tell you for this week: Barner is giving a boost to several Denver Nuggets players because of their upcoming schedule.

"All four of the Nuggets' opponents rank inside the bottom-half of the league in defensive rating," Barner said. "That could set up Nikola Jokic to possibly be a league winner for those who are lucky enough to have him on their roster. He's not the only appealing fantasy option on the team, though. Jamal Murray is in the midst of another valuable campaign and Michael Porter Jr. is on a hot streak, averaging 20.1 points, 9.7 rebounds and 2.8 three-pointers over his last 10 games. Finally, this could also be an opportune time to start Will Barton, who has averaged 18 points, 5.2 rebounds, 3.4 assists and 2.7 three-pointers over the last nine games."

Barner has also identified a sleeper who NEEDS to be in your lineup this week because his minutes are set to increase. This player should return massive Fantasy numbers in multiple categories, and he's most likely on the waiver wire in your league right now.

So who should you start and sit this week? And which overlooked sleeper could lead your team to victory? ... Join SportsLine right now to get Mike Barner's best and worst Fantasy basketball matchups for Week 14, all from one of the most respected voices in the industry!
