Point Guard Derrick White FD - $4800 DK - $4600Opponent - DALProj Pts FD - 30.2 DK - 29.92 Dejounte Murray has already been ruled out for Tuesday and doesn’t have a timetable to return. That should open the door for Derrick White to get the start at point guard. White’s per minute numbers are actually decent, averaging 10 points, three assists and three rebounds in 24 minutes per game. If we tick him up into the low 30’s minutes as a projection, which is completely reasonable considering the current Spurs’ personnel he’s looking very much like a cash game play on both sites. Of course, we will hope for confirmation on the San Antonio starting lineup, but if he’s in there White makes a very good play. Coby White FD - $6400 DK - $6800Opponent - CLEProj Pts FD - 35.09 DK - 36.86 Shaquille Harrison FD - $4900 DK - $5000Opponent - CLEProj Pts FD - 40.34 DK - 37.52 The Bulls announced Coby White would enter the starting lineup on Tuesday, replacing Tomas Satoransky in that spot. White had essentially been the nominal starter over the last four games with Zach Lavine out. In that stretch, White’s averaged 35 minutes per game, and 21 shots leading to a 23 point, six assist average. With the move to the starters, I think we can get rather aggressive on the minutes and usage. The price has ticked up some in the short term because of how well he’s played, but he’s still something of a bargain in the middle tier. Meanwhile, Harrison has also been in the starting lineup over the last four with the minutes ramping up each game (16, 26, 34, 36) over that stretch. He’s been a steal machine, averaging almost three swipes per game over the last four. His ability to chip in across the box score, and the prospect of the minutes locking into the upper 30’s makes him a great cash game play on both sites. Point guard is pretty loaded today. There’s a strong case for Ricky Rubio (FD 6700 DK 7500) who’s been playing a lot lately and is coming off a...
FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks – Monday, 3/9/20
FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Monday, 3/9/20 It's a three-game Monday slate of NBA action on FanDuel and DraftKings. Let's take a look at cash game plays for both sites. Head on over a for your chance to get DFSR PRO, which will give you access to our NBA FanDuel and DraftKings optimizer, our NFL Optimizer and NHL Projections as well. Plus our new player lab!

We've got you completely covered. Point Guard Eric Bledsoe FD - $6000 DK - $5700Opponent - DENProj Pts FD - 37.01 DK - 37.73 Well, Giannis Antetokounmpo has already been ruled out for Monday’s game after sitting on Sunday as well and neither site did much in the way of correcting the prices on the other Bucks’ pieces. That means we are looking at massive chalk plays for a few of these guys again on Monday. With Giannis off the court this season Bledsoe spikes to a 31.2% usage rate, the second-highest on the team in that scenario. The assist and rebound rates tick up dramatically as well which makes sense considering the amount of use raw stats that leave the court with the Bucks’ superstar isn’t around. This one is pretty set it and forget it for cash games and I suspect we see Bledsoe as something like a 90%+ play on both sites for Monday. Terry Rozier FD - $5900 DK - $6600Opponent - ATLProj Pts FD - 34.05 DK - 35.6 The Hornets’ season is effectively over at this point, but they are running their guards quality minutes still and Rozier has played 35+ in each of the last six games. In that span he’s averaging 19 points per game along with four assists. Sure, these aren’t overwhelming numbers but the opponents have been combinations (mostly) of either slow teams or really defensively sound ones. On Monday that won’t be the case when they face Atlanta who sports the third-worst defensive efficiency in the league with the fourth-fastest pace. This is a great buy spot on Rozier whose minutes should keep the floor reasonably high and he isn’t coming at exorbitant prices. If Fred VanVleet remains out you can consider Kyle Lowry (FD $7300 DK $8400). And I do think we could see some ownership on Trae Young (FD $9600 DK $10300).

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks – Sunday, 3/8/20
FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Sunday, 3/8/20 There are a pile of NBA games today, and while they are spread out across the day we'll focus on a still robust 6 game Sunday main slate of NBA DFS action on FanDuel and DraftKings. Let's have a look at where we can find some value!

We've got you completely covered. Point Guard Collin Sexton FD - $7000 DK - $7100 Opponent - SA Proj Pts FD - 36.48 DK - 37.92 The price has been rising on Sexton, but does it equal his current production? That remains to be seen. As of this writing he's on back to back 50+ fantasy point games (this is written before the Denver game has concluded), and to be honest this level of production might just be sustainable. And on these prices? He could be 80% as good and still be a great value. The Spurs are still a sneaky great match-up, allowing the 10th most fantasy points per game to opposing point guards this season. While I suppose there is some risk of a blowout here, Sexton's 40+ minute rotations should give him plenty of opportunity to hit value here. Aaron Holiday FD - $4000 DK - $4300 Opponent - DAL Proj Pts FD - 28.42 DK - 29.24 Speaking of value, Holiday's value just got cemented with the news that Malcolm Brogdon is week to week with a torn left quad. Holiday is playing a 33-35 minute rotation with Brogdon sidelined, and while there might be usage questions if some of the other pieces are healthy (Warren in particular) our model still sees Holiday as roughly a $5,000 player in league average match-ups. Dallas is something slightly worse than that, but the price is attractive enough that it looks to make up the difference. Jerome Robinson is an interesting punt if you trust last game's minutes. Shooting Guard Norman Powell FD - $5900 DK - $6600 Opponent - SAC Proj Pts FD - 31.97 DK - 32.34 How much is too much for Norman Powell? If the last four games are to believe, the answer is: not this much. Powell has been nothing short of brilliant in his four games taking over for Fred VanVleet, and...
FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks – Saturday, 3/7/20
FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Saturday, 3/7/20 It's rare to see a small Saturday slate but here we are. We actually have just six games in total, with five of them making up the main slate. That means we're going to omit the Houston-Charlotte matchup which means we get to avoid the James Harden chalk with Russell Westbrook out. It does leave the player pool extremely limited with no player above $10,300 on DraftKings but let's go ahead and get into our favorite plays of the day!Head on over a for your chance to get DFSR PRO, which will give you access to our NBA FanDuel and DraftKings optimizer, our NFL Optimizer and NHL Projections as well.

Point Guard Ja Morant FD - $6900 DK - $6800Opponent - ATLProj Pts FD - 37.37 DK - 38.49 The Rookie of the Year frontrunner has a ton of motivation right now. Not only does he have Zion Williamson storming up behind him for that award, Morant is also in charge of holding on to the eight-seed in the west, That's a lot to put on a kid's shoulders but his 17.6 points, 3.5 rebounds and 7.0 assists per game averages show that he's up to the task. His numbers have been even better recently, scoring at least 28 DraftKings points in five-straight while averaging 37 fantasy points per game in that span. That's even more intriguing when you consider the fact that Atlanta ranks 28th in defensive efficiency and 29th in points allowed. Mike Conley FD - $5400 DK - $4900Opponent - DETProj Pts FD - 25.49 DK - 26.48 These price tags are truly insulting. While Conley did get off to a terrible start, he's been a different player since returning from injury. In fact, Conley has at least 28 DraftKings points in 10 of his 11 games since re-entering the starting lineup. That's the guy that we became accustomed to in Memphis and it's clear that he's finally starting to find his form with his new team. The matchup against Detroit is nice too, with the Pistons ranked 21st in defensive efficiency. All of that means he should be north of $6,000 and it's hard to understand how he's below $5,000 on DK. Jeff Teague (FD $3800 DK $3900) would be a great option if Trae Young (sickness) is out again. Shooting Guard Bogdan Bogdanovic FD - $5100 DK...
