Point Guard/ Shooting Guard Damian Lillard FD - $10400 DK - $11100Opponent - WASProj Pts FD - 54.21 DK - 60 Damian Lillard was a chalk option on Monday for good reason and he could that again here on Monday against the Wizards. Dame started slow, but finished strong against the Lakers, scoring 40 points in the win. He took 23 shots, his most since January 25th against the Jazz. The usage saw an uptick with Jerami Grant out of the lineup though the latter is questionable for this game. While he’s really up there in price now, Portland has the highest implied total on the slate and are in a great spot against Washington. Derrick White FD - $7200 DK - $7100Opponent - MILProj Pts FD - 39.78 DK - 42 Malcolm Brogdon FD - $5600 DK - $5700Opponent - MILProj Pts FD - 34.29 DK - 37.79 It looks like Jayson Tatum is going to sit out this game with an illness and Jaylen Brown is already out of the mix with a facial fracture. Oh, and Marcus Smart has been out injured for some time now. The Celtics are really thin going into this game and for starters, we should see a lot of minutes and usage out of Derrick White. White has played 37 or more minutes in each of the last four games, and over the last six, he’s averaged 22 points, six assists, and six rebounds. The price has come up in the short-term, but not enough for the current opportunity with Boston missing so many guys in the backcourt and on the wing. Meanwhile, Malcolm Brogdon isn’t likely to start, but he should be called on for an uptick in minutes in this game considering the state of the Celtics’ injury issues. He only played 18 minutes against the Hornets, and also sat out last game. But here he could push 30+ minutes off the bench mostly because Boston will need his offense. Small Forward Giannis Antetokounmpo FD - $12000 DK - $12700Opponent - BOSProj Pts FD - 61.93 DK - 66.74 While we typically don’t want to run guys into the Celtics on...

DFS NBA Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings – Sunday, 2/12

Posted by on Feb 12, 2023 in Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineups, Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks, DraftKings NBA Picks, FanDuel NBA Picks, featured |

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Sunday, 2/12/23 This was one of the craziest weeks of the NBA season, with the trade deadline on Thursday mucking up the whole league. It felt like every role player was shipped to a new city, and it's taken a few days to adjust to these new-look teams. Most acquisitions finally suited up on Saturday, but we don't have much of that here. In fact, we have just two games in total because it's the NFL's day to shine. They are two interesting matchups, though, and we still have plenty to discuss!

We've got you completely covered. Point Guard Fred VanVleet FD - $8600 DK - $9000 Opponent - DET Proj Pts FD - 40.22 DK - 40.64 VanVleet hasn't played up to the All-Star level we've become accustomed to, but this point guard is starting to turn his season around. The stat-stuffing guard is averaging 46 DraftKings points per game across his last 13 outings. He's also scored at least 61 DK points in three of those, flashing a 73-point upside in that span. That's brilliant from a $9K player, and it should be easy to duplicate against Detroit. The Pistons rank 29th in both points allowed and defensive efficiency. In their most recent matchup, FVV finished with 24 points, five rebounds, and 10 assists en route to 53 DK points. Killian Hayes FD - $5400 DK - $4900 Opponent - TOR Proj Pts FD - 27.21 DK - 27.59 Hayes was horrible in a bench role when he returned from an injury, but we have to assume he'll return to his early-season form since he's been reinserted into the starting lineup. In his 34 starts this season, Hayes is averaging 30 DK points per game across 30 minutes a night. He's done that with some lackluster shooting, and the stat-stuffing ways have made Hayes an excellent value in this $5K price range. He's also posting a 28-point average across his last three outings and played a career-high 39 minutes in his most recent outing. If this guy is going to play 35-40 minutes as the Pistons starting point guard, Hayes needs to be $1,000 more on both sites. Shooting Guard Derrick White FD - $6800 DK - $6700 Opponent -...

DFS NBA Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings – Saturday 2/11

Posted by on Feb 11, 2023 in Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineups, Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks, DraftKings NBA Picks, FanDuel NBA Picks, featured |

DFS NBA Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings - Saturday 2/11 Head on over for your chance to get DFSR PRO, which will give you access to our NBA FanDuel and DraftKings optimizer, NFL optimal lineups, and our NHL Optimizer. Plus our new player lab! Get started for free by clicking the button below. START YOUR FREE TRIAL NOW! Guards Trae Young FD - $9700 DK - $9500 Opponent - SA Proj Pts FD - 45.99 DK - 49.51 Trae has been one of the most consistent high-priced fantasy plays all season and has been especially dominant in the short term. He comes into Saturday with double-doubles in seven of his last eight games averaging 26.1 points/11.5 assists for 49.9 fantasy points per game. The floor is elite and we get a good shot at seeing the upside again here in a matchup against the Spurs league-worst defence playing on a back-to-back. Trae is a core play for me in all formats. Jalen Brunson FD - $7900 DK - $8600 Opponent - UTA Proj Pts FD - 41.15 DK - 41.89 Brunson has one of the safest floors in the league in terms of playing time as he is averaging 35 on the season and just over 39 per game going back to Christmas. The next part of the equation is what he does with all that playing time and over his last 19 games, he is averaging 28.5 points on 20.5 shots and has delivered an average of just over 44 fantasy points per game. He not only provides a safe floor for cash games but he also provides upside scoring 50+ fantasy points in three of his last five. There is a good chance we get a similar performance in a great matchup vs the Jazz who rank 26th in defence and 29th in fantasy points to guards. Fire up Brunson in all formats. Jordan Poole FD - $7800 DK - $7500 Opponent - LAL Proj Pts FD - 39.63 DK - 42.08 With Steph Curry still out of the lineup for the Warriors, it is a bit of a mystery to me how Poole's price has remained in the sub $8K range on both sites. Going back to the start of December, Steph has missed 15 games with Poole starting all of them, playing 35 minutes a game, averaging 28.9 points on 21.5 shots while providing us just over 40 fantasy points per game on average. This game has a very high total(238.5) and should get there as these are the #1 and #2 ranked teams in terms of pace while ranking 18th and 21st in defence. Poole is a core play in all formats. Small Forward...

Daily Fantasy DraftKings and FanDuel NBA Picks – Friday, February 10, 2023

Posted by on Feb 10, 2023 in Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineups, Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks, DraftKings NBA Picks, FanDuel NBA Picks, Uncategorized |

Daily Fantasy DraftKings and FanDuel NBA Picks - Friday, February 10, 2023 Head on over for your chance to get DFSR PRO, which will give you access to our NBA FanDuel and DraftKings optimizer, NFL optimal lineups, and our NHL Optimizer. Plus our new player lab! Get started for free by clicking the button below. START YOUR FREE TRIAL NOW! First time with NBA or NFL? Be sure to read our free NBA and NFL Ebooks on building lineups, general strategy, and more. We've got you completely covered. Point Guard/ Shooting Guard Damian Lillard FD - $10400 DK - $10900Opponent - OKCProj Pts FD - 52.55 DK - 57.61 The Blazers sent out Josh Hart and Gary Payton at the deadline leaving the team a little thinner at guard/ wing heading into this game. But they still very much seem like a team that would like to win in the short-term, maybe making the play-in game if possible. Lillard has run major minutes lately, going 40 or more in four of the last five games. In that stretch he’s averaged 34 points, 7.4 assists, and six rebounds. The matchup against the Thunder should be up and down the court and he makes for a high floor option. Derrick White FD - $6100 DK - $6100Opponent - CHAProj Pts FD - 36.99 DK - 38.47 The Celtics are going to be without Jaylen Brown because of a facial fracture he suffered. This should keep Derrick White running big minutes going forward and we’ve seen him capitalize on the opportunity. He’s averaging 36 minutes a game over the last five scoring 19 points and pulling seven rebounds per game in that stretch. The pricing has creeped up but doesn’t totally reflect the opportunity and this is a great matchup against the Hornets. Jaden Ivey FD - $5600 DK - $5300Opponent - SAProj Pts FD - 33.02 DK - 36.12 Killian Hayes FD - $6000 DK - $4700Opponent - SAProj Pts FD - 30.84 DK - 32.61 The Pistons get one of the best matchups of the slate facing off against the Spurs. San Antonio has played the sixth-fastest pace in the league and is easily (easily!) the worst defense there is. While Detroit hasn’t wanted to always run their starters major minutes, both Jaden Ivey and Killian Hayes should push around 30 here, making them value looks on DraftKings especially. Again, even with a tanking team without tons of minutes upside, this is just the kind of spot to stack these two. Collin Sexton FD - $5200 DK - $4000Opponent - TORProj Pts FD - 27.1 DK - 30.2 The Jazz traded away Mike Conley, Malik Beasley and Jared Vanderbilt around...

DFS NBA Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings – Thursday 2/9

Posted by on Feb 9, 2023 in Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineups, Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks, DraftKings NBA Picks, FanDuel NBA Picks, featured |

DFS NBA Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings - Thursday 2/9 Head on over for your chance to get DFSR PRO, which will give you access to our NBA FanDuel and DraftKings optimizer, NFL optimal lineups, and our NHL Optimizer. Plus our new player lab! Get started for free by clicking the button below. START YOUR FREE TRIAL NOW! Guards Trae Young FD - $9400 DK - $9100 Opponent - PHO Proj Pts FD - 45.06 DK - 48.84 The system has a few of those players that it just loves no matter what and Trae is one of them that I agree with almost 100% of the time. It comes down to consistency and he has provided just that averaging a double-double on the season(26.8 points, 10.0 assists) and has provided us 40 or more DraftKings points in 42 of 48 games and 23 of his last 25 games. He now faces a Suns team that does rank 8th in defensive efficiency but has struggled against guards giving ranking 25th in fantasy points against the position. The price has poked its head above $10K but for the most part, it has remained in the low to mid $9K range leading to one of the safest PTS/$ floors in the league. Chris Paul FD - $8100 DK - $7300 Opponent - ATL Proj Pts FD - 42.79 DK - 44.75 The Suns got Booker back on Tuesday as he played limited minutes and will now miss tonight's game to manage the injury. That is music to my ears as Chris Paul checks all the boxes and it starts with a price that has dropped off the table on DraftKings back into the low $7K range. He has been terrific with Booker out averaging 15.7 points, 8.5 assists, 3.8 rebounds, and 2.0 blocks+steals. Even with three duds where he scored under 20 fantasy points, he still averaged over 37 during that stretch with Booker out and now gets a below-average Hawks defence (19th) that runs at a top-10 pace. Fire up Paul in all formats. **Update - The Suns have traded Bridges, Crowder, and Cam Johnson for Kevin Durant who is not likely to make his debut tonight. More bump to Paul here** Cam Thomas FD - $7300 DK - $7800 Opponent - CHI Proj Pts FD - 36.26 DK - 39.38 Spencer Dinwiddie FD - $7900 DK - $8100 Opponent - CHI Proj Pts FD - 0 DK - 0 The trade deadline is coming to a close today but not before the Nets make another monster move shipping Kevin Durant to Phoenix. This puts newcomer Spencer Dinwiddie back in the spotlight in Brooklyn and the crazy part is that...

DFS NBA Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings – Wednesday, 2/8

Posted by on Feb 8, 2023 in Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineups, Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks, DraftKings NBA Picks, FanDuel NBA Picks, featured |

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Wednesday, 2/8/23 This Wednesday card could be wild. We have the trade deadline in the next 48 hours, and it'll be fun to see what happens until then. We already had the first domino fall in the Kyrie Irving blockbuster trade, which could be the first sprinkle in a tasty sundae. We're hoping there's not too much trading going on before this slate takes off because that causes chaos from a DFS perspective. It's unlikely that we have any trades during the games, but that would be even crazier. In any case, let's take a look at this final card before the trade deadline.

We've got you completely covered. Point Guard Damian Lillard FD - $10000 DK - $10700 Opponent - GS Proj Pts FD - 49.46 DK - 52.33 Dame gets in these stretches where he can make 30-foot stepback fadeaways and make them look like lay-ups. He's amid one of those right now, averaging 37.6 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 7.4 assists across his last 14 games. He's being asked to do everything for this offense with Jusuf Nurkic out, and that's terrible news for this 27th-ranked Warriors defense. They're also allowing the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing PGs, and Dame has always destroyed them throughout his career. Lillard's childhood team is Golden State, averaging 28.9 points and 6.1 assists in their 32 career matchups. Fred VanVleet FD - $8900 DK - $9100 Opponent - SA Proj Pts FD - 39.03 DK - 39.64 VanVleet got off to a rough start this year, but this guy is cruising right now. The former All-Star has scored at least 41 DraftKings points in 10 of his last 11 games, averaging 26 points, 5.2 rebounds, 7.5 assists, and 1.7 steals per game in that span. That's the stat-stuffing we've been waiting to see, and he should slice right through this subpar Spurs defense. Calling them subpar is unfair to everyone else because San Antonio sits dead last in both points allowed and defensive efficiency. They're also surrendering the third-most fantasy points to opposing PGs, and FVV averaged 47 DK points per game against them last year. De'Aaron Fox (FD $8900 DK $9000) is averaging over 40 fantasy points per game and...
