FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Sunday, 10/30/22 I just finished watching the late games on Saturday, and it was a heck of a basketball night. Utah pulled out another shocking win over Memphis, while OKC overcame a 16-point deficit in the final five minutes to upset Dallas. Seeing random players on these bad teams is something I love about the NBA because there's so much talent littered throughout the league. That's why I love the NBA because these guys play basketball at an unfathomable level. With that in mind, let's kick things with one of the most ridiculous players in the league.

We've got you completely covered. Point Guard Luka Doncic FD - $12000 DK - $12200 Opponent - ORL Proj Pts FD - 62.6 DK - 67.42 We have a ton of value plays on this slate, so getting a guy like Doncic into your lineup is imperative. This has been the best player in fantasy, and it's likely to continue when you see his league-leading 40 percent usage rate. Dallas wants Doncic to do everything for this offense right now, scoring at least 66 fantasy points in four of five games. He's also leading the NBA with 69 DraftKings points per game, averaging 35.2 points, 10.8 rebounds, and 9.4 assists. That's why he's earned this $12K price tag, but it's also why he needs to be in every lineup out there. Orlando is an outstanding matchup, too, with the Magic ranked 19th in defensive efficiency ratings. They're also missing all of their guards, and Doncic should feast against what's possibly the worst roster in the league. Tre Jones FD - $6000 DK - $6100 Opponent - MIN Proj Pts FD - 34.25 DK - 33.84 The Josh Primo situation in San Antonio is unfortunate, but it's giving Jones full reign on the point guard position. He's started every game, averaging 29 DraftKings points per game across 31 minutes a night. That's the guy we saw last season, with Tre totaling a 31-point average as a starter last year. He's taking over the Dejounte Murray role in this San Antonio offense, and he's only going to get better at the age of 22. Devin Vassell being out of the lineup is another boost to his value,...

DFS NBA Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings - Saturday 10/29 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 Shai Gilgeous-Alexander FD - $10000 DK - $9300 Opponent - DAL Proj Pts FD - 47.13 DK - 49.63 With Luka's price skyrocketing and Ja Morant doubtful for tonight, I am going with a little more balanced approach at the guard position and that starts with SGA. He has been a beast so far this season running a 32.6% usage rate taking 22 or more shots in every game while averaging 29.3 points, 6.5 assists, and 4.8 rebounds while also sitting second in the league in steals per game(2.5). For fantasy, he has provided us a 42-point floor with upside exceeding 60 points and while this is the lowest total on the slate, the Thunder are going to need him to help keep it close and the Mavs have been slightly below-average defensively(18th in def eff) this season. All things considered, SGA is a great play in all formats. Tyrese Haliburton FD - $8400 DK - $8300 Opponent - BKN Proj Pts FD - 36.85 DK - 39.79 We go from the lowest total on the slate to the highest but still have a little blowout risk here as the Pacers, who are likely going to tank the season, are 10.5-point dogs. I am no overly concerned for a couple of reason starting with the matchup as they face a Nets team that has been a disaster defensively to start the year ranking 29th in defensive efficiency and 29th in fantasy points to guards. That brings us to Haliburton who is, in my opinion, underpriced at the moment as he comes in with five straight double-doubles and averaging 23 points and 10.3 assists on the season. Like SGA, he has provided a 42-point fantasy floor but comes a $1000 cheaper on DraftKings and at an even bigger discount on FanDuel. I will most definitely have exposure in all formats. Tyus Jones FD - $4500 DK - $4700 Opponent - UTA Proj Pts FD - 27.44 DK - 29.77 Dillon Brooks FD - $5100 DK - $5100 Opponent - UTA Proj Pts FD - 21.33 DK - 23.85 Value is something we are searching for in DFS NBA right up until lock but today we are getting some nice and early as Ja Morant is doubtful to play this evening against the Jazz. The top beneficiary should be Tyus Jones who...

Daily Fantasy NFL GPP Stacks for FanDuel and DraftKings - Week 8 Welcome back football fans. Week four 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 or GPP contests. Let's get started. Now’s your chance to get DFSR PRO, which will give you access to our NFL and MLB optimizers and our new player lab! Get started for free by clicking the button below. START YOUR FREE TRIAL NOW! Game Stack - Raiders @ Saints Josh Jacobs FD 9000 DK 7500 Opponent NO Proj Points FD - 21.67 DK - 23.48 Andy Dalton FD 7100 DK 5500 Opponent LV Proj Points FD - 12.28 DK - 12.28 Chris Olave FD 6900 DK 6000 Opponent LV Proj Points FD - 14.75 DK - 17.62 This game has the second-highest total on the slate and provides us with multiple ways to stack it. My favorite starts with Josh Jacobs who has been tremendous lately with 20 or more rush attempts and 143 or more rushing yards in three straight games while also reaching the endzone a whopping six times! On top of that, he has also been involved in the passing game catching 13 of 15 targets for another 82 yards in that time and that is key when playing full PPR on DraftKings. That heavy run approach has been key in turning the Raiders season around and I don't see it stopping against a Saints team that has been vulnerable to the run lately. Last week Eno Benjamin rushed for 92 yards on just 12 carries(7.7 yards per rush), Joe Mixon only rushed for 45 yards on them in week 6 but that was on just eight carries(5.6 yards per carry) and he also caught a TD through the air, and Kenneth Walker blew them up for 88 yards on eight carries(11 yards per rush) and a touchdown the week before that. I will be running this back with Andy Dalton in a game script where the Saints are chasing and need to pass 40+ times once again. Dalton showed us his ceiling last week in a come-from-behind game script where he threw for 361 yards and four touchdowns. I doubt we see that sort of upside again but it's possible against a Raiders defense that is 30th in DVOA against the pass. I will pair Dalton with his primary pass-catcher Chris Olave who is most definitely in the running for Rookie of the Year. Even with more coverage pushed his way with Michael Thomas and Jarvis Landry out,...

DFS NBA Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings - Thursday 10/27 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 Ja Morant FD - $10600 DK - $10200 Opponent - SAC Proj Pts FD - 51.99 DK - 55.75 With Luka reaching the $12K mark on both sites, it makes it pretty easy to pivot to Morant, who is nearly $2K cheaper. Outside of the dud against Luka's Mavericks, Morant has been playing like an MVP shooting 56% from the field on elite usage(23.3 shots per game) while adding an average of eight assists and five rebounds in those games. He now gets an elite matchup against a Kings team that not only ranks 22nd in defensive efficiency but is also 6th in pace. With a monster total(237) in this game, I will be building around Morant in all formats. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander FD - $10300 DK - $9300 Opponent - LAC Proj Pts FD - 46.56 DK - 48.77 Tre Mann FD - $5400 DK - $5600 Opponent - LAC Proj Pts FD - 25.5 DK - 27.87 The Thunder are short-handed at the guard position with Giddey out of the lineup which has concentrated a lot of usage to these two players. That showed in their last game where they combined for 46 shots in a win against the Clippers. Let's start with SGA who was originally doubtful, then questionable, then starting with no restrictions in that game and went off for a 63-point fantasy game. He has been terrific to start the season with 20+ shots in all three games while adding a terrific mix of secondary scoring with 6.7 assists, 4.7 rebounds, and 4.0 streals+blocks. With the price remaining under $10K on DraftKings, that is where I have the most interest tonight. For Mann, it was his second start of the season and first without Giddey which was the difference maker in the volume and overall performance. He not only dropped 25 points, he added four rebounds, four assists, and two steals to give us a ceiling game of 40 fantasy points. I don't think we get that ceiling game again but with a mid $5K price tag we don't need it, at least for cash games. Spencer Dinwiddie FD - $5000 DK - $5500 Opponent - BKN Proj Pts FD - 26.45 DK - 29.55 Speaking of mid $5K guards, we have Dinwiddie who benefited big time with Hardaway missing Tuesday's game as he saw a...

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Wednesday, 10/26/22 Tuesday's slate was a rough on in terms of late-game news, and it looks like this is the new NBA. Teams will rest players whether they're tanking or not, which can be frustrating for DFS managers. The most important aspect of DFS is following the news up to first tip. It's essential to follow up after as well because mid-slate adjustments could bank you a massive GPP. Knowing which players will step up in those circumstances is one of the most important things when evaluating these articles, and we'll keep sending value plays your way!

We've got you completely covered. Point Guard Tre Jones FD - $6300 DK - $5500 Opponent - MIN Proj Pts FD - 32.42 DK - 31.86 Why are these DFS sites still sleeping on Jones? This is the new starting point guard in Popovich's system, and he's played at a $7K level in this role. Tre started in 11 games last season, averaging 33.2 DraftKings points per game. That's essentially the guy we've seen this year, posting a 30-point average through the opening week. The simple fact is, this is the primary ball-handler for this underwhelming offense, and he should continue to produce as long as he's playing 30-35 minutes a night. His role should rise even more here in the absence of Devin Vassell, which is awesome since Minnesota is surrendering the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing PGs. Dennis Smith Jr. FD - $6500 DK - $6000 Opponent - NY Proj Pts FD - 37.65 DK - 36.02 How wild is it that we're recommending Smith Jr this early into the season? That shows how badly Charlotte has been bit by the injury bug, playing without LaMelo Ball, Terry Rozier, and Miles Bridges. That has forced DSJ into the starting lineup, dropping 37 DK points across 33 minutes in this expanded role on Sunday. He scored at least 31 DK points in all four games he played at least 25 minutes last year, and we know he can produce whenever given the opportunity. New York didn't give him that chance, and you know he'll be motivated in this revenge game. With all that said, DSJ is a tough sell if Rozier...

Plus our new player lab! Get started for free by clicking the button below. START YOUR FREE TRIAL NOW! Guards Damian Lillard FD - $8800 DK - $9500 Opponent - DEN Proj Pts FD - 45.04 DK - 47.54 It took Lillard a game to get in the groove and he is most definitely there shooting 54% on 50 shots over the last two games, including half of those shots coming from behind the arc(44% from 3pt range). Despite this being a back-to-back, I don't see the elite usage going away giving him a very high floor and it's also a pace-up game against the Nuggets who have also struggled defensively giving up 117 or more points in all three of their games. After back-to-back 50 fantasy point performances, the price has not gone up which has Lillard in my core in all formats. Devin Vassell FD - $5800 DK - $5400 Opponent - MIN Proj Pts FD - 27.58 DK - 28.11 Despite the Spurs' 2-1 start, they still have one of the league's weakest rosters and are expected to be in tank mode this season. That doesn't mean we can't target them for DFS and Devin Vassel has actually been a terrific PTS/$ option so far. He is second in usage behind Keldon Johnson and has taken 14 or more shots in all three games and has shot 55% over the last two while returning over 7x value on both sites. The matchup doesn't jump off the page but both this game has the highest total on the slate, both teams are running Top 10 pace, and the T-Wolves are playing on a back-to-back.  Add it all up and Vassel is one of my favorite PTS/$ guards on Monday and in play in all formats. Terrence Ross FD - $5000 DK - $5700 Opponent - NY Proj Pts FD - 19.64 DK - 20.84 Cole Anthony FD - $6000 DK - $6200 Opponent - NY Proj Pts FD - 33.73 DK - 35.16 The Magic lost Jalen Suggs to an ankle sprain on Friday night and are now very shot-handed at the guard position with both Markelle Fultz and Gary Harris already out. Both Cole Anthony and Terrance Ross picked up the slack on Saturday playing 32 and 35 minutes respectively and that should continue for the foreseeable future. If that is the case, they are both a bit underpriced and if looking for safety, I lean toward...
