FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks – Saturday 2/29/20

Posted by on Feb 28, 2020 in Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks, DraftKings NBA Picks, FanDuel NBA Picks, featured, News |

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Wednesday, 2/29/20 After a monster night on Friday, we're looking at an eight-game slate for this Saturday schedule. With that said, there is a New York-Chicago matchup early in the day, so, we're going to omit those teams from this article. The big thing that we need to keep an eye on is the LeBron James injury. His absence would completely change the slate and it'll be key to monitor all of the injury reports prior to tip!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.

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 Trae Young FD - $10000 DK - $10300Opponent - PORProj Pts FD - 51.39 DK - 56.49 I'm not sure people realize just how ridiculous this dude has been this season. Young is actually third on this slate with 52 DraftKings points per game, trailing only James Harden and LeBron James. He's actually been even better recently, averaging 54.3 fantasy points per game across his last eight outings. It's the role that's made him so valuable, averaging 23 shots, 39 minutes played and 11 free-throw attempts per game in that span. The best part of all of this might be the matchup though, facing a Portland team who owns a 26th OPRK against opposing point guards this season. That was pretty clear when Trae dropped 65.5 DK points in their one meeting earlier this season. I love Young in all formats. Markelle Fultz FD - $5500 DK - $5600Opponent - SAProj Pts FD - 29.12 DK - 29.07 Fultz has quietly found his way with the Magic ever since D.J. Augustin got injured. While Augustin is back now, Fultz has established himself as the primary point guard. That's evident when you see that he's averaging 30 DK points per game across 31 minutes of action over his last 25 games played. That's stellar production from a player south of $6,000 and it's hard to understand why he remains so affordable. Getting to face the Spurs isn't too shabby either, with San Antonio sitting 24th in defensive efficiency.   Rajon Rondo (FD $4200 DK $4200) would be one of the best value plays out there if King James sits again.  Shooting Guard DeMar DeRozan FD - $7500 DK - $7600Opponent - ORLProj Pts FD - 42.64 DK...

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks – Friday 2/28/20

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Friday 2/28/20 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! 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 Spencer Dinwiddie FD - $7300 DK - $7900 Opponent - ATL Proj Pts FD - 39.7 DK - 41.37 Dinwiddie was a chalk option FanDuel against the Wizards, and was a pretty big disappointment on a night where Caris Levert stole the spot light. While it was a discouraging result, there was some context. Dinwiddie got in some foul trouble early, and then Levert was just so red hot that the game sort of got away from him. He started picking it up in the second half, but it wound up being a little too late. The good news for us is that we can live to fight another day in a match-up with arguably the worst point guard defender in all of basketball in Trae Young. This game has the second highest total on the slate, and with a tight 2 point spread I'm looking for all these guys to get their full run here. Trae Young FD - $9700 DK - $10500 Opponent - BKN Proj Pts FD - 52.73 DK - 57.58 Jeff Teague FD - $3800 DK - $3600 Opponent - BKN Proj Pts FD - 20.97 DK - 21.31 Trae Young is questionable as of this writing, and while is status is uncertain, one thing we can be pretty sure about is that there will be a good point guard playing coming out of Atlanta today. If Young plays he's in a fantastic position against Dinwiddie and the Nets, and if he sits? Things get even in better. Teague looked great against Orlando in his last game, and if he assumes the starting point guard duties he could be the highest owned player on the entire slate. Also considered: Darius Garland as a sneaky punt option. Shooting Guard Bogdan Bogdanovic FD - $4800 DK - $5200 Opponent - MEM Proj Pts FD - 33.41 DK - 34.97 So this is mostly a play if De'Aaron Fox sits, but I'd expect the Kings to be cautious with their young star given that he just sat last night. I'm writing this before the Kings played their Thursday night game, but Bogdan has taken over a lot...

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks – Thursday, 2/27/20

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Thursday, 2/27/20 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! 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 Aaron Holiday FD - $4200 DK - $4800 Opponent - POR Proj Pts FD - 27.85 DK - 28.83 Malcolm Brogdon FD - $5900 DK - $7300 Opponent - POR Proj Pts FD - 37.83 DK - 39.22 Oladipo is questionable here, and his return would obviously sour the deal on Holiday in particular. Even if he returns, though, I think you can run Malcolm Brogdon out there. The price has come down on FD as a result of a couple of tough DFS performances, but the discerning DFS eye knows that this has just created an opportunity for us. The Pacers' last two games have been decided by a combined 85 points, and while Vegas sees this as a 9.5 point game in its own right I think you should assume that the Pacers play their full run here. Brogdon is an auto include on FanDuel in any format at these prices, and Holiday might wind up being the play of the day if Dipo sits. Chris Paul FD - $7400 DK - $7900 Opponent - SAC Proj Pts FD - 39.39 DK - 39.88 CP3 typifies a certain kind of pick you need to make tonight, where you're going to wind up with a decent number of plays that are solid but unexciting. Paul has averaged roughly 5x fantasy points per dollar on his FD price this season, and is playing 33-34 minutes in close games right now. He and SGA have really found a groove together, and both are thriving in the current offense. The Kings are a tougher match-up than they've been in the past, but they are still allowing the 12th most fantasy points per minute to opposing PGs this season. Like I said - this is solid, if unspectacular. Also considered: De'Aaron Fox on a cheap price tag going the other way. Shooting Guard Josh Richardson FD - $5200 DK - $5300 Opponent - NY Proj Pts FD - 29.78 DK - 29.97 It's the second half of a back to back, but with Ben Simmons still out of the picture Richardson is firmly on the list of guys who are just under-priced...
