Guards Luka Doncic FD - $12400 DK - $12400 Opponent - HOU Proj Pts FD - 60.86 DK - 64.5 If you aren't just locking in the massive fantasy point floor at this point, you are missing out on an all-time run from Luka. He has now dropped 80 or more DraftKings points in three straight and four of his last five games while averaging a triple-double with 45.6 points, 11.2 rebounds, and 10.2 assists. He has even hit that 80 or more total twice against these Rockets in which he faces again tonight. The price has only come up slightly on the best player in fantasy against a bottom-three defence. There should be more than enough value on this bigger slate to build around Luka in all formats. LaMelo Ball FD - $9700 DK - $10000 Opponent - LAL Proj Pts FD - 49.09 DK - 54 The more optimal route on this slate is probably to load up on the Lakers/Hornets game which brings us the highest total(240.5) on the slate between two teams that run a Top 10 pace. We will talk about LeBron shortly but on the other side of the ball, we have another very consistent fantasy option in LaMelo Ball. When healthy, is easily one of the best fantasy guards in the game and since returning from injury in mid-December(10 games), he has been elite dropping at least 40 DraftKings points in every game and 50 or more in six of his last seven. Like you would expect from a superstar, he contributes in all areas and is a great play to build around in all formats. Klay Thompson FD - $7600 DK - $7100 Opponent - ATL Proj Pts FD - 34.93 DK - 38.69 For the most part, we have been concentrating mostly on Jordan Poole since Stephen Curry went down with a shoulder injury but it's actually Thompson who stands out for me tonight. It starts with the obvious with Klay now cheaper than Poole on both sites while showing a little more consistency in terms of his fantasy returns. It is a small sample size but it appears Klay has found his shot lately with double-digit attempts from beyond the arc in three straight while shooting nearly 40% and providing 40+ fantasy points in each. This game has the 2nd highest...

Guards Luka Doncic FD - $12400 DK - $12100 Opponent - SA Proj Pts FD - 63.5 DK - 67.7 Are you not entertained? Luka is on an all-time run right now but for some reason has not seen his price spike back up to the $13K level which has him as the center of attention once again on Saturday. He comes in with back-to-back triple-double performances, has dropped 80 or more DraftKings points, and is averaging 60.8 FD/64.4 DK points per game since the start of December. I look for this all-time run to continue in a matchup against the Spurs who rank dead last in defence and top 10 in pace. Fire up Luka in all formats. LaMelo Ball FD - $9300 DK - $10000 Opponent - BKN Proj Pts FD - 46.29 DK - 51.33 Building around Luka can be a challenge if not enough value pops up by lock so if you happen to pivot to a more balanced build, you cannot go wrong with Ball. Since returning from injury in mid-December(nine games), he has been on another level starting with the usage as he is taking over 21 shots a game and has delivered in a big way averaging 25.2 points, 6.6 rebounds, and 7.9 assists per game. In that time he has tallied at least 40 DraftKings points in all nine games while topping 50 in five of his last six. Those are numbers we expect from the superstars of the game and Ball has become just that and is in play in all formats against a Nets team that struggles defending guards. Immanuel Quickley FD - $6700 DK - $5700 Opponent - HOU Proj Pts FD - 36.53 DK - 39.05 Jalen Brunson is in danger of missing a third straight game on Saturday and with RJ Barrett already ruled out, there is Knicks value once again. With Brunson out at the guard position, Quickley is the one who has taken the reigns of the offence and has gotten everything he can handle. He has played 51 and 43 minutes the last two games while taking a whopping 48 shots including 22 from beyond the arc. The shooting improved last game seeing him put up a season-high 36 points to go along with seven rebounds and seven assists for a near-60 fantasy point performance....
Daily Fantasy NFL GPP Stacks for FanDuel and DraftKings – Week 17
Daily Fantasy NFL GPP Stacks for FanDuel and DraftKings - Week 17 Welcome back football fans. Week 17 in the NFL is here and DFSR has you covered. Earlier in the week, we look at our top cash game picks and now it's time to look at some stacks that help us get to the top of our GPP contests. Let's get started.

Lions Passing Game Jared Goff FD 7400 DK 5600 Opponent CHI Proj Points FD - 20.28 DK - 20.28 Amon-Ra St. Brown FD 8200 DK 7800 Opponent CHI Proj Points FD - 20.5 DK - 25.31 DJ Chark FD 6000 DK 4300 Opponent CHI Proj Points FD - 8.13 DK - 9.81 There is no avoiding the chalk with this stack as it the game has the highest total(51.5) on the slate and looking at the Lions' home games in 2022, seven of eight have hit 53 or more and exceeded 60 three times. In these teams' first meeting in Chicago, they combined for 61 points. Everything points to a shootout so let's get as much exposure as possible across all formats. The stack starts with Jared Goff as a value option as he is somehow outside the Top 10 in QB pricing on DraftKings this week. He has arguably been the best fantasy QB in football lately throwing for 300 or more yards in three of his last five games while averaging 23 DraftKings points per game during that stretch. You can most definitely double-stack here as both top receivers have been doing damage lately, as well. It starts with Amon-Ra St. Brown who has been a target monster collecting eight or more in nine straight with double-digits in six of those games. While he has only tallied three touchdowns in those games, he has averaged 86 receiving yards and 19.5 DK/14.7 FD points per game. DJ Chark Jr. has also stepped up and been a big contributor lately, as well, with 90 or more receiving yards in three of his last four games. Against a Bears defence that is dead last in overall defensive efficiency and 29th in DVOA against the pass, this is my core stack in week 17. Game Stack - Vikings @ Packers Dalvin Cook FD 8300 DK 7000 Opponent GB Proj Points FD - 17.46 DK - 18.84 Aaron Rodgers FD 7100 DK 6000 Opponent MIN Proj Points FD - 19.66 DK - 19.66 Allen Lazard FD 6200 DK 5400 Opponent MIN Proj...

Guards Luka Doncic FD - $12400 DK - $12000 Opponent - HOU Proj Pts FD - 61.79 DK - 65.59 Hard not to concentrate on Luka tonight coming off a game for the ages where he became the only player in history to drop a 60-point triple-double. While I am not expecting another 100-point fantasy performance, it seems odd that the price never budged on DraftKings and is still $1000 lower than his season-high of $13K. Luka provides an elite floor with his contributions across the board with access to a huge ceiling, especially against a Rockets team that is 28th in defensive efficiency and 30th in fantasy points to guards. More than enough value should pop up to make it easier to build around Luka in all formats. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander FD - $10800 DK - $10100 Opponent - CHA Proj Pts FD - 53.22 DK - 54.89 In terms of cash game lineup construction, it is going to be much more optimal to start your lineup and build around SGA who seemingly checks all the boxes tonight. First of all, while he doesn't have anywhere near the same ceiling as Luka, the floor has been very comparable this season. Over 31 games played, he has provided 50 or more DraftKings points 18 times while posting under 40 points just four times. He contributes across the board with averages of 31.5 points, 5.8 assists, 4.9 rebounds, and 2.8 blocks+steals. We should see that floor once again in a projected high-pace game against a Hornets team that is 27th in defensive efficiency and 10th in pace. Fire up SGA in all formats Thursday. Immanuel Quickley FD - $6000 DK - $5000 Opponent - SA Proj Pts FD - 34.56 DK - 37.28 We will have to keep an eye on the Jalen Brunson injury but it appears he could miss a second straight game opening up some value for the Knicks' backcourt. It was Quickley who benefited last game in an overtime marathon against the Mavericks. He played an insane 51 minutes and picked up a season-high 15 assists and 42 DraftKings points. While that is not very sustainable, neither is the terrible shooting he displayed making just 5 of 21 shots(24%) and just 1 for 10 from beyond the arc. Either way, if he starts, I love the matchup against a...

Guards LaMelo Ball FD - $8900 DK - $10200 Opponent - POR Proj Pts FD - 46.22 DK - 51.49 We are going to want plenty of exposure to this game with a monster 237.5 total with two teams facing each other who both rank outside the Top 20 in defensive efficiency. It is very close between Lillard and Ball at point guard here, but the recency bias has me leaning the latter as my top pick. Since returning from injury in mid-December, Ball has been terrific with three double-doubles, a triple-double, and is averaging nearly 50 fantasy points a game. All things considered, Ball is my top guard and in play in all formats, especially on FanDuel at a sub $9K price tag. CJ McCollum FD - $8800 DK - $8600 Opponent - IND Proj Pts FD - 44.76 DK - 48.23 Speaking of rising prices, we have CJ McCollum who is approaching the $9K territory but with Brandon Ingram out for one more game, I am not concerned at all. Over his last eight games without Ingram, he has been very efficient for fantasy averaging 25.5 points, 5.9 rebounds and 6.6 assists giving us a return of nearly 50 fantasy points a game. He may lose a little bit of volume with Zion back tonight but in a game with a 233 total where both teams rank Top 15 in pace, there should be more than enough meat on the bone for CJ to thrive once again. Norman Powell FD - $5200 DK - $5200 Opponent - DET Proj Pts FD - 25.93 DK - 28.09 For value at the guard position, stay tuned to the Clippers starting lineup as Powell is projected to start and while the total is lower the matchup stands out as the Pistons are 29th in defense and run an above-average pace. Powell made his return from injury last week and has looked good off the bench putting up 14 and 21 points in those two games while adding six assists and six rebounds. At this current price, we are only looking for about 25-28 fantasy points and if he starts and plays 25-30 minutes, I have no concern of him hitting value for us. If he starts I will have exposure in all formats. Small Forward DeMar DeRozan FD - $8500 DK -...
