Point Guard Shake Milton FD - $5700 DK - $6300Opponent - LALProj Pts FD - 32 DK - 33.06 The Sixers have been through hell with injuries in the short term with them losing Ben Simmons (no timetable) and then Joel Embiid and now Josh Richardson will sit with a concussion. That’s meant losses in two of the last three but also led to the emergence of Shake Milton as a legit fantasy option. In the last three games Milton has been scoring machine averaging 29 points and five assists per game. He took 20 shots against the Clippers and that number could sustain considering Philly is really short on legit scoring options at this point. This is a bad matchup against the Lakers, but Milton isn’t priced up enough considering the uptick in usage and the Sixers’ woes. De'Aaron Fox FD - $7500 DK - $8000Opponent - WASProj Pts FD - 41.7 DK - 42.06 The Kings have won five in a row and are still in the discussion (kind of) for a playoff berth in the Western Conference. On Tuesday they draw a fantastic matchup against Washington who rank as the second worst defensive efficiency in the league this season while also playing a top-six pace. Fox, unlike some other point guards is a little more scoring dependent but the pace-up matchup should lend itself to volume shooting. That being said, there is at least some risk here because the Kings haven’t pressed his minutes beyond 33 in the last two weeks. But he should have a high floor because of the context. If Fred VanVleet remains out then Kyle Lowry (FD 6900 DK 8100) is still in play for cash games. Shooting Guard Devin Booker FD - $7500 DK - $8300Opponent - TORProj Pts FD - 42.29 DK - 44.6 The Suns are without Kelly Oubre and that’s led, in some part, to a ton of minutes in the short term for Booker who’s played 38 or more in four of the last five games. That being said, with defenses focusing a bit more on the Suns’ star the usage hasn’t been there in the way we would...

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks – Sunday, 3/1/20

Posted by on Feb 29, 2020 in Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks, DraftKings NBA Picks, FanDuel NBA Picks, featured, News |

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Sunday, 3/1/20 Welcome to a night of Sunday DFS NBA action! It's a modest four game slate that's honestly a little bit nuts, so let's get right to it. 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 De'Aaron Fox FD - $7200 DK - $7700 Opponent - DET Proj Pts FD - 41.96 DK - 42.16 Fox was a late scratch on Thursday, and a late add on Friday. Concerns about his abdomen issue appear to have been overblown, as he racked up 42.3 FanDuel points in 33 minutes of action against the Grizzlies. Well, his FanDuel price is still down from his injury, and point guard is pretty rough tonight. A great match-up with what's left of the Pistons is just the icing on the cake, and it's hard to imagine Fox not being in all my FanDuel lineups tonight. Kyle Lowry FD - $7500 DK - $8100 Opponent - DEN Proj Pts FD - 39.66 DK - 40.93 Point guard drops off very quickly after Fox, as far as our model is concerned. That said, if Fred VanVleet were to miss this one (he's currently questionable), Lowry would go from a solid play to a great one. With FVV and Ibaka out of the lineup against Charlotte, Lowry was 67% owned in cash and delivered 47.2 fantasy points. Taking VanVleet's ball handling off the court just leaves Lowry with almost all of the non-Siakam ball handling duties, and in those cases he's easily an $8k player. Even if the Raptors are healthy here, point guard is thin enough that Lowry should deliver a reasonably high floor in what Vegas sees as a five point game. Shooting Guard Bradley Beal FD - $9900 DK - $10400 Opponent - GS Proj Pts FD - 50.75 DK - 52.34 Beal is just playing angry out there right now, and while the price has gone up some it probably still isn't fully adjusted for his absurd usage and time of possession right now. In his last five games Beal has averaged 29 shots a game - a 30% increase over his season averages - and he's paid his price handily in his last four. Tonight he gets the best match-up of...

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...
