Five Thoughts for Friday NBA DFS – FanDuel and DraftKings 12/1/18

Posted by on Dec 1, 2017 in Uncategorized | 0 comments

Five Thoughts for Friday NBA DFS - FanDuel and DraftKings 12/1/18 We've got a big Friday coming in the NBA and that means we've also got a lot of big thoughts on players going into the evening. Here we'll take a deeper look at a player (or players) at each position and try to find the truth in the matchups and recent performances. Let's take a look at five thoughts for Friday in the NBA. Point Guard The OKC negative feedback loop Russell Westbrook FD - $11300 DK - $11400 Opponent - MIN Proj Pts FD - 56.45 DK - 60.23 Westbrook’s recent return to Triple-Double Russ has appeared to come at the price of OKC’s ability to actually win games. Over the last six games, Westbrook has averaged a 27/11.5/9 line on 38 minutes and the Thunder have gone 1-5 with the lone win a stunner against the Warriors. They’ve also suffered embarrassing blowout losses to the Magic and Mavericks in the last two. The question here isn’t whether last season’s stat sheet-filling Westbrook can show up but rather should he be taking on this role? It’s going to be a core question going forward for the Thunder. For DFS purposes, as long as he’s going full-on Russ then he is still coming in at something of a value on both FanDuel and DraftKings. Funny enough, the style of play has led to the Thunder falling behind, leading to Coach Billy Donovan needing to run Russ more to play catchup. It’s something like the NBA version of a negative feedback loop. When Westbrook has 20 or more shots in a game the Thunder are 1-8. Less? 7-4. And sure, 20 shots in a game is a somewhat arbitrary starting point, but it does speak to a potentially larger problem for the Thunder. Tonight he’ll get a bottom-third defensive efficiency team in the Timberwolves who could throw Jimmy Butler his way if Jeff Teague is in the lineup. Otherwise, he’d be seeing some combination of Tyus Jones and Butler. It will be interesting to see if OKC makes any fundamental changes to their approach which would negate some of Westbrook’s fantasy upside, but for now, I think we feel comfortable buying on his recent performance.   Shooting Guard Another walk down Beal Street without John Wall Bradley Beal FD - $8000 DK - $7900 Opponent - DET Proj Pts FD - 41.5 DK - 42.75 On the one hand, we have a pretty big sample size of what Bradley Beal’s game looks like when John Wall is off the court. Over the last two seasons, Beal goes from a 26.2 usage (per NBAwowy) with Wall on to a 32...
