We've got you completely covered. What We Know Chris Paul, John Collins, Dwight Howard, Brandon Ingram, Rajon Rondo, Harrison Barnes, James Johnson, Bogdan Bogdanovic, DeMarre Carroll, Dion Waiters, Denzel Valentine, and Kevin Knox will all remain out Outside of the LA brawlers, these guys have been out all year and we'll continue to wait for their debut. We already know what to expect in each of these spots. Kris Dunn has been ruled out for the next 4-6 weeks with an MCL sprain Tough break after Dunn came back for his first game of the season last time out. He's a huge part of the offense and his absence will leave a lot of opportunity up for grabs. At point guard, Cameron Payne and Ryan Arcidiacono will both get some minutes. I love Payne as a pure punt at near-minimum price. Zach LaVine has also stepped up and looks like an absolute stuf to start the year. He's been at 40 fantasy points in each of the last 3 games and I don't think Charlotte is the team to slow him down. Justin Holiday is also cheap and will grab 30 minutes in a fast-paced match-up. What We're Waiting to Know Andrew Wiggins is a game-time decision Wiggins is kind of a big piece of the offense, but I think this team is just as good without him. He has a ton of talent, but is rarely a better guy to shoot the ball than Butler or Towns. I'll have it in their hands all night. With Kawhi sticking Butler, I'll lean on Towns to have the bigger night. Josh Okogie could also pick up some run and he's cheap enough to deserve a little bit of consideration. Ben Simmons is questionable to play vs the Bucks, but intends to play With him missing last night and now practice two days in a row, I expect Simmons to be fully healthy if they're letting him play. If Simmons sits, the Sixers will be forced to play the same hand as last night. McConnell, Redick, Saric, Covington, and Embiid all had big nights and would be in line for similar minutes. However, the Bucks are a tougher match-up and I could see a guy like Fultz, who played just 20...

Daily Fantasy NBA Basketball Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings - 2/13/18 It’s Tuesday night in the NBA and as we approach the All Star break, we have a six game slate on our hands with a ton of question marks. While our friends in Vegas are withholding the opening lines based on all of the news that is up in the air at the moment, that doesn’t stop us from looking at the top plays position by position as determined by our lineup optimizer.

We've got you completely covered. Point guard De'Aaron Fox FD - $6000 DK - $6300 Opponent - DAL Proj Pts FD - 29.5 DK - 30.05 Point guard is a train wreck coming into tonight. A lot of uncertainty, and nothing to like about the sure things we have to work with. De'aaron Fox has run 31-35 minutes in four of the Kings last five games. He was impressive against the Timberwolves on Sunday scoring 23 points in 34 minutes to pair with three steals, and two boards, and two assists each. Over his last seven he's produced .93 FP per minute against some formidable defenses, and tonight sees a Dallas team that is slightly below average defending against the position. You have to trust the minutes on this one, but if you think Fox can continue to run the boards for 30+ then he's one of the surest plays at the position tonight. Raymond Felton FD - $5000 DK - $4900 Opponent - CLE Proj Pts FD - 32.13 DK - 32.34 Yogi Ferrell FD - $4500 DK - $4500 Opponent - SAC Proj Pts FD - 25.92 DK - 26.86 Patty Mills FD - $4100 DK - $4700 Opponent - DEN Proj Pts FD - 22.94 DK - 23.97 We'll call this group here, the "if" bunch. If injury thrusts them back into the starting rotation, then each of them becomes worthy of consideration based on the opportunity they see at value pricing. Felton started the last two games for the Thunder in place of Russell Westbrook seeing an average of 32 minutes and scoring an average of 29.3 FPPG. He was excellent against the Grizzlies on Sunday paying 6.4X at these prices which are up dramatically since then but still well below what he is capable...

Daily Fantasy NBA Basketball Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings - 2/10/18 Saturday night’s alright for DFS NBA action and we’ve got six games on the schedule to analyze, dissect, and find our NBA optimizer’s top overall plays to get us into the green. There is a seventh game at six that has the Pelicans traveling into Brooklyn to play the Nets, but that's not an option on DraftKings, while FanDuel only has is as part of their new "Single game" contest format or their all day late swap games. As some of my favorite plays of the night are in that game, I will put my favorites at the end of each position, in the event you just want to try them in one of those formats. With that let's move on to the picks. Now’s your chance to get DFSR PRO, which will give you access to our NBA optimizer, our NFL Optimizer, and our new player lab!

We've got you completely covered. Point guard Patty Mills FD - $4300 DK - $3800Opponent - GSProj Pts FD - 23.27 DK - 24.38 We open things up at point guard in Oakland where the Spurs travel to take on the Warriors. San Antonio comes into this game with both Dejounte Murray and Tony Parker on the shelf, which means they will need to rely heavily on Patty Mills to help them keep pace with the Dubs. Sure, they’ve got Bryn Forbes, and the recently recalled Derrick White, but if they have any hopes of even trying to remain competitive with Steph & Co. then they will need to keep a healthy dosage of Mills on the court tonight. Mills, who normally sees about 20 minutes a night off the bench should be in line for at least 30 tonight, which at a mere $4K price tag should open up tons of opportunity to easily hit value. Mills is a lock for cash games and depending on just how many Minutes Pop decides to give him, he could have solid GPP upside to boot. Stephen Curry FD - $9600 DK - $9500Opponent - SAProj Pts FD - 44.95 DK - 46.94 Sticking with the same game, we have perennial All Star, Steph Curry. We’ve only got two plays over $10K tonight, and Embiid may rest on the back to back with the ankle bothering him, so I don’t mind looking to a sub $10K Curry. Sure, Steph has been coming in short of...

Point guard Tim Frazier FD - $4900 DK - $4100Opponent - MINProj Pts FD - 32.32 DK - 32.86 Tyus Jones FD - $5200 DK - $4300Opponent - WASProj Pts FD - 25.89 DK - 25.49 Welcome to another Tuesday edition of NBA daily fantasy action! The association has given us a quaint little five game slate of hoops entertainment. We're going to begin at point guard with two plays from the same game, and two guys benefitting from injury which leads to plenty of value to be had. First up we have the sure thing. John Wall underwent a procedure to reduce the inflammation in his knee which will set him firmly on the Washington Bench for at least two weeks. This opens up a ton of value for us, with Tim Frazier stepping into the starting rotation for the Wiz. Wall has missed three games already this season and in those games Frazier has run the boards an average of 31.3 minutes. He'll take on a Minnesota team tonight that may or may not have Jeff Teague. Teague missed two games already with an achilles injury and is a game-time decision for tonight's contest. Tyus Jones got the starting nod the last two games and saw 32 and 38 minutes respectively stuffing the stat sheet each time out. The sites were quick to correct pricing on both of these players but there is still plenty of room to the ceiling, particularly with Jones. This game tips off an hour after lock, so we may not have definitive word on Teague's status at 7:00, which sucks because I think Jones holds much more upside, so we will have to pay close attention and hope for early word, but Frazier will be in all of my cash games guaranteed. The Wolves are heading into the first game of a back to back so they could err on the side of caution and hold Teague back until the tail end, if so I'll have Jones everywhere. Kris Dunn FD - $6100 DK - $6100Opponent - PHOProj Pts FD - 32.24 DK - 31.56 Kris Dunn snaked the starting job in Chicago from Jerian Grant and then went cold. So cold that Grant outperformed...

Daily Fantasy NBA Basketball Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings - 11/26/17 Happy Sunday, NBA addicts! It's a 3 game slate today, but blessedly we get both Brooklyn and Phoenix as two of the 6 teams having a go at it. Should be plenty of value to be had on this smaller slate, so let's get right to work!

Point guard Goran Dragic FD - $7500 DK - $7300Opponent - CHIProj Pts FD - 35.77 DK - 37.07 Mario Chalmers FD - $6900 DK - $6000Opponent - BKNProj Pts FD - 29.15 DK - 30.2 Do you take the point guard against the team with the worst defensive efficiency or the league's fastest PACE? Those aren't bad decisions to have to make on such a small slate, and we get both options before us here. The issue of course is that both are very expensive compared to where they've been recently, and on a small slate that could cause some salary problems. Still, Dragic is coming off of back to back games with 38+ fantasy points, and he'll have his best match-up by a country mile against the decimated Bulls. Whiteside is questionable at the moment, which should divert even more shots Dragic's way. He's looking pretty solid. Chalmers remains the primary ball handler for the Grizzlies, but his dismal shooting recently seems to be trying to patience of the Grizzlies' coaching staff. Still, at just $6k on DK it's hard to imagine him being anything but a chalk play. Tyus Jones FD - $4500 DK - $3600Opponent - PHOProj Pts FD - 22.61 DK - 22.32 He instantly becomes the highest owned point guard on the slate by a mile if Jeff Teague misses this game, as expected. Not a whole lot of analysis here - he put up a very balanced 8/6/6 with 4 steals when Teague missed the Miami game, and he gets a significantly better match-up here against the league's 2nd fastest team. I wouldn't overthink this one too much - he's a much better play that even Dragic and Chalmers in their plus match-ups (but only if Teague sits of course). Shooting Guard Andrew Wiggins FD - $6800 DK - $6500Opponent - PHOProj Pts FD - 31.95 DK - 32.32 Likely the overwhelming cash game chalk, Wiggins brings basically...
