Point Guard Kyle Lowry FD - $8600 DK - $8500 Opponent - PHO Proj Pts FD - 42.34 DK - 45.66 Eric Bledsoe FD - $8300 DK - $8400 Opponent - TOR Proj Pts FD - 40.47 DK - 43.56 We have a spread out 4 game slate on our hands, and it's a little bit weird. We have 3 games with high over/unders, and the 4th being the one with most value. You should be able to pay up today, but it could end up creating a lot of overlay. This is a day where  or 2 weird decisions can give you a great ownership advantage in tournaments. Lowry and the Raptors will host the Suns, who are coming off of a 107-105 win to the Knicks just last night. I personally do like Lowry a tad bit more, but could easily see Bledsoe having the bigger day. I expect Lowry to play big minutes here, and the rest day for Demar Derozan is coming. It likely won't happen today, but there is a chance. Both of these guys are actually pretty good defenders, but by no means shutdown. The Suns are technically worse against PG's, giving up 45 FanDuel PPG to the Raptors 43. These guys are basically identical in terms of price, and I expect the ownership to be similar as well. I will go with Lowry in both formats, but will also have exposure to Bledsoe. This position, like the rest, is a bit murky tonight. Any safety you can find holds a premium, and both of these guys are absolutely safe. Jordan Clarkson FD - $4400 DK - $4800 Opponent - DAL Proj Pts FD - 24.58 DK - 26.58 This game between the Lakers and Mavericks offers the most value on this slate, but is also the slowest. With D'Angelo Russell out for at least a week, there will be about 30 guard minutes up for grabs. With sites not having time to adjust yet, all of these guys have to be in consideration. Clarkson should man a lot of point guard minutes, and has a fantastic match up against the Deron Williams. Clarkson has shown the ability to produce when given the opportunity, so I expect nothing less...

Daily Fantasy NBA News and Injury Updates for FanDuel and DraftKings - 1/20/17 Welcome to the daily updates and injury news article. We'll try and update it right up to line-up locks with as much information as comes across our desks. Let's get to it! Last night's picks can be found here, so you can wrap your mind around what you need to be looking at before lineups lock tonight. By the way - we keep our projection system updated with all of the changes as they occur throughout the day right up until lineup lock. Every day. If you want access to that system so you can cut out a lot of the research element, click the button below! START YOUR FREE TRIAL! What We Know Rudy Gay is out for the season   Gay has been battling injuries all year, and this one will put him out for good. DeMarcus Cousins is the obvious guy who benefits, and he is a fantastic play night in and night out. Matt Barnes and Tolliver could also see some more run, and I like Tolliver in tournaments. Darren Collison has been picking up some steam lately, and he could be in for some big tournament games. Evan Fournier & Jodie Meeks are out against the Bucks   Fournier looks to be dealing with a pretty bad foot injury, and he could be out for a little while. Elfrid Payton and Serge Ibaka will pick up some usage, and Mario Hezonja will get a bunch of minutes. All 3 guys can be used in different formats. What We're Waiting to Know Luol Deng is questionable vs Pacers   Luol Deng has been in and out for the last couple games, and looks truly questionable to play tonight. The Pacers play fast, and there will be opportunities to make shots and get rebounds. If Deng plays, i don't mind him. I won't go out of my way to grab him, but he is fine. If Deng misses, Brandon Ingram and Nick Young could also pick up a few minutes, and they are both willing to shoot. Patrick Patterson & Lucas Nogueira are both unlikely to play   PatPat and Nogueira are both questionable here, and there has to be something here. If one plays and one misses, the one that plays is a solid option. If they both play, I will avoid. If both guys sit out, Pascal Siakam and Jonas Valunciunas will have secured minutes and should both play well. You can consider Siakam in tournaments and Valunciunas can be played in all formats. The "Every Lineup" Guys Kevin Durant   I expect this game to stay close, and Durant is...

DFSR's Daily Fantasy NBA Podcast for DraftKings and FanDuel Friday 1/20/17 The DFSR crew of James Davis and Doug Norrie talk a full Friday in the NBA highlighted by the biggest game of the night: the Warriors vs. Rockets. We could see some some higher ownership numbers in that one with guys like Harden, Durant, Klay, Curry, Ariza and more. It’s appointment television. The guys also discuss the Pelicans vs. the perfect DFS matchup in the Nets and how we are getting back to a world where we need to worry about the injury risk on Anthony Davis. They also take a look at the Pacers who have a ton of value tonight in Teague, George, Young and Turner facing the Lakers. All of that and more. Subscribe to this podcast on...

Daily Fantasy NBA Basketball Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings - 1/20/17 Tonight is appointment television with the Rockets and Warriors playing. That's about all you need to know about how exciting it can get in the NBA. But there's plenty of other value beyond that game and we've got a lot to dissect for a full slate in the NBA.

Point Guards Jrue Holiday FD - $6500 DK - $7200 Opponent - BKN Proj Pts FD - 33.22 DK - 35.72 Let's start with teams who’re just straight up awful at defending. The Nets make every other bottom feeding squad look like defensive stalwarts. They’re getting shredded in every facet of the defensive game and point guards just rip them apart. They’re allowing 7% more scoring and 10% more assists than league average to opposing ones. Holiday put up a 21/4/4 line in 31 minutes when they played last week and that strikes me as on the low end of what could happen here tonight. That game was without Davis, so a usage bump saw him get more shots, but also resulted in a few less assists than his baseline. Look for those numbers to meet in the middle here and the minutes to tick up some. Damian Lillard FD - $8400 DK - $8500 Opponent - PHI Proj Pts FD - 42.12 DK - 45.35 In the short term, Lillard’s been on the wrong end of a couple of blowouts and a few of bad shooting nights. That’s pushed the price down and he’s now coming as a value play against the Sixers who are about league average defending point guards this season. I’m mostly looking to buy Lillard at a discount considering four of his last five games have seen him play less than average minutes because of games getting out of hand. That will make the game log look rough, but also will turn other folks away from the guy. He’s an elite scorer in the right situation and the Blazers are fine running him big minutes if the game is close. This is a fantastic time to scoop him when others might be soured on the recent performance. Jeff Teague FD - $8000 DK - $7900 Opponent - LAL Proj Pts FD - 35.94 DK - 38.65 It’s hard to know exactly how a player...

What We Know Wilson Chandler, Gary Harris & Darrell Arthur are all out vs the Spurs The Nuggets are a bit of a mess tonight, and these 3 guys have all been confirmed out. With Gallinari questionable too, Will Barton could be in for huge minutes. We will talk about him later. Jameer Nelson could also see some minutes, and he is a decent punt option at point guard. Chris Paul will miss 6-8 weeks Paul is obviously a huge piece of the Clippers offense, and his leave let a few different guys get some minutes. Austin Rivers should benefit most, and I see him being a viable way to go on a nightly basis. J.J. Redick has his minutes solidified, and you can play him in cash games. Jamal Crawford and Raymond Felton are the 2 wild cards, and I like them in tournaments. What We're Waiting to Know Danilo Gallinari is questionable against the Spurs If Gallinari plays, he could be in for a healthy amount of minutes and makes for a good GPP play. If Gallo misses, Will Barton is a terrific option. We will get there. Mike Miller could also see some extra minutes, but this is 2017. Say no to Mike Miller. Kevin Love is questionable against the Suns I expect Love to play tonight, but I hope he doesn't. Channing Frye will likely play big minutes, and he could have some revenge on hsi mind against his old team. LeBron does a good job getting him involved on the offense, and he would be a near lock if he got the start. Joakim Noah & Kristaps Porzingis are expected to miss It looks like both of these guys are going to miss the game, and I am glad. Kyle O'Quinn should step in and play big minutes, and he is a good way to look at center. Marcin Gortat also gets a bump, as O'Quinn is not a good...
