Point Guard Damian Lillard FD - $9900 DK - $10600Opponent - WASProj Pts FD - 59.36 DK - 62.59 He’s not going to win in all likelihood, but Lillard has at least entered the MVP discussion with his performance this season. He’s putting up massive numbers for a team decimated by injuries and currently without their second and third best players in CJ McCollum and Jusuf Nurkic. But they’ve won seven games in a row and over the last two weeks, Lillard is averaging 30 points and nine assists per game. On Sunday, he gets the best defensive matchup of the day against the Wizards (other than the Wiz against Portland) who rank 26th in efficiency and run the league’s fastest pace. This is a dream spot for Lillard. LaMelo Ball FD - $7800 DK - $8800Opponent - GSProj Pts FD - 47.32 DK - 48.49 We’ll probably be stacking up some Hornets once again in cash, this time against the Warriors. Charlotte is without Devonte’ Graham again which leaves them thin in the backcourt for this game. Ball has been starting regardless and logging heavy minutes, playing 37 and 39 in the last two respectively. In fact, dating back to 1/29 when the run really started increasing, he’s putting up 21 points, seven rebounds, seven assists, and two steals per game. That gets the job done at these prices and this is a pace-up matchup with the Warriors playing as the second-fastest team in the league. Shooting Guard Terry Rozier FD - $7000 DK - $7900Opponent - GSProj Pts FD - 39.81 DK - 41.31 Much like Lamelo Ball, Rozier has been asked to play a ton over the last few games, and from a fantasy perspective, it’s paying off. He’s taken 14+ shots in each of the last five games, and 49 total over just the last two. Rozier has put up an average of 33 points per game over the last three thanks to that volume shooting and he should see similar usage in this game against Golden State. The FanDuel price is particularly attractive whereas it’s getting a little closer on DraftKings thanks to the increase. Andrew Wiggins FD - $6400...

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks – Friday, 2/19/21

Posted by on Feb 19, 2021 in Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineups, Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks, DraftKings NBA Picks, FanDuel NBA Picks |

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Friday, 2/19/21 After a slow Thursday slate, we're back to a full one here. We have nine games on the docket, with the Houston-Dallas matchup getting postponed. Losing that game takes out some big-name players, but there's still plenty of good options on the board. There's a lot to discuss, so let's go ahead and get into it! Head on over for your chance to get DFSR PRO, which will give you access to our NBA FanDuel and DraftKings optimizer, our MLB 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 Ja Morant FD - $7100 DK - $7400 Opponent - DET Proj Pts FD - 42.14 DK - 43.16 It's crazy that Morant remains so affordable on both sites. This dude has been a monster when healthy, and we genuinely believe he'll be a $9,000 player by the end of the season. He showed why in his first week before getting injured, averaging over 55 fantasy points per game. While he did struggle a little in his return from his ankle issue, he's still scored at least 32 DraftKings points in six-straight while dropping 46-plus in back-to-back games. The talent will eventually overwhelm this price, and we love that he faces a 22nd-ranked Detroit defense here as well. Darius Garland FD - $5400 DK - $ Opponent - DEN Proj Pts FD - 31.04 DK - 32.18 Talk about some mispricing. Garland has hovered around $5K ever since he returned from injury, and it makes no sense why. We're talking about a player who averaged 34 DK points per game across 34 minutes a night before his injury. That's what we've seen lately, with Garland averaging 28 DK points per game across his last 11 outings. That's all you can ask for from a sub $6K player, especially when this is a blossoming 21-year-old who will only get better as the season progresses. Facing a shorthanded Nuggets team that ranks 16th in defensive efficiency isn't worrisome either. Jamal Murray has been stellar the last three games, and his usage should continue to rise with so many Nuggets sitting. Shooting Guard Fred Vanvleet FD - $8000 DK - $7800 Opponent - MIN Proj Pts FD - 47.83 DK - 48.54 With Kyle Lowry out for the next few games, FVV will be running things for the Raptors. That was certainly the case on Thursday when...

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks – Thursday, 2/18/21

Posted by on Feb 18, 2021 in Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineups, Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks, DraftKings NBA Picks, FanDuel NBA Picks, featured, News |

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Thursday, 2/18/21 After a crazy slate on Wednesday, things are much tamer here. It's actually one of the smallest slates of the season, with only three games on the docket. That makes things relatively easy to figure out but mixing the right studs with the right value plays is absolutely critical. That's why we have a good mix here, so let's go ahead and get into it! Head on over for your chance to get DFSR PRO, which will give you access to our NBA FanDuel and DraftKings optimizer, our MLB 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 Kendrick Nunn FD - $5100 DK - $5300 Opponent - SAC Proj Pts FD - 24.02 DK - 24.55 We have some big dogs coming later in this article, so let's kick things off with a couple of good value plays. Nunn is just that, starting at point guard in the absence of Goran Dragic. That expansion in his role has led to the best stretch of his career, averaging 29 DraftKings points per game across 34 minutes a night over his last 14 outings. Getting 29 fantasy points from a player barely cracking $5K is huge, and it's hard to understand why he remains so cheap on both sites. The best part of this might be the matchup, though, with Sacramento ranked dead-last in both points allowed and defensive efficiency. Cory Joseph FD - $3800 DK - $3900 Opponent - MIA Proj Pts FD - 24.55 DK - 24.34 Joseph has always been a solid veteran, and it's clear Luke Walton has inserted him into the starting lineup to light a fire under some of the young guys. In that first start on Tuesday, Joseph played 31 minutes and dropped a season-high 33 DraftKings points. That extends a stretch in which he's averaging 26 fantasy points per game across his last three fixtures, playing at least 27 minutes in each of those. Harrison Barnes and Richaun Holmes's injuries should guarantee him even more minutes, making him the best punt play below $4K on both sites. Shooting Guard James Harden FD - $11000 DK - $10600 Opponent - LAL Proj Pts FD - 50.72 DK - 54.46 This dude put on one of the performances of the season on Thursday, and it's clear he's fully motivated after a questionable end to his Rockets tenure. He...

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks – Wednesday, 2/17/21

Posted by on Feb 17, 2021 in Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineups, Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks, DraftKings NBA Picks, FanDuel NBA Picks, featured |

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Wednesday, 2/17/21 If you love DFS chaos, this is the slate for you. We've had three postponements already, and it's scary to think how much will change in the next 24 hours. What's even more concerning is the fact that we have nearly 10 teams on the second half of a back-to-back set. That causes even more mayhem, and this slate will be all about following the news. With that in mind, let's get into it! Head on over for your chance to get DFSR PRO, which will give you access to our NBA FanDuel and DraftKings optimizer, our MLB 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 Damian Lillard FD - $9500 DK - $10300 Opponent - NO Proj Pts FD - 51.78 DK - 54.54 With Jusuf Nurkic and C.J. McCollum missing games, Lillard is an easy pick. He's actually got a usage rate north of 30 percent with those guys off the floor, regularly averaging 35 minutes and 20-plus shots a night. That monster role has led to some ridiculous production, scoring at least 48 DraftKings points in 13 of his last 14 games. That monster floor looks even more enticing when you consider that New Orleans ranks 28th in defensive efficiency, plummeting down those standings over the last three weeks. Jamal Murray FD - $6500 DK - $7100 Opponent - WAS Proj Pts FD - 35.3 DK - 36.43 Murray didn't play a great game by the eye test on Tuesday, but he somehow finished with a monster fantasy game. He had nine turnovers but still provided 25 points, six rebounds, six assists, and three steals in one of his best stat-stuffing games of the year. The nine turnovers are actually slightly encouraging because it shows just how much usage he's getting right now with Denver being so shorthanded. They're currently without Monte Morris, Paul Millsap, and Will Barton, which should force Murray into another monster game. The matchup might be the best part of this play, though, and we'll discuss that more later. If Facundo Campazzo gets another start, don't overlook him in Denver. Shooting Guard Bradley Beal FD - $9900 DK - $9800 Opponent - DEN Proj Pts FD - 54.7 DK - 56.08 It's extraordinary to see Beal below $10,000 on both sites. This dude is leading the NBA in scoring and dropping 50 fantasy points on...

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks – Tuesday, 2/16/21

Posted by on Feb 16, 2021 in Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineups, Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks, DraftKings NBA Picks, FanDuel NBA Picks, featured |

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Tuesday, 2/16/21 This is one of those stars and scrubs slates. We say that because every top-notch option seems to have a great matchup. Deciphering which ones to use will be the difference, and that's why we have a nice mix of cheap guys and expensive ones in this article. There's a lot to talk about, though, so let's go ahead and get into it! Head on over for your chance to get DFSR PRO, which will give you access to our NBA FanDuel and DraftKings optimizer, our MLB 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 Ja Morant FD - $7100 DK - $7500 Opponent - NO Proj Pts FD - 41.67 DK - 42.84 Ja has been slightly disappointing for fantasy this season, but it's just a matter of time before he sees a $1,000 price increase on both sites. We say that because he played at a $9,000 level to start the season, averaging 56 DraftKings points per game before getting injured in the second week. He's shown some flashes of that recently, averaging 32.4 fantasy points per game across his last 10 outings. That's plenty good from a $7K player, and we really want to hop on this train before it gets too fast. We expect improvement because there are so many injuries in Memphis, with De'Anthony Melton, Jaren Jackon, and Desmond Bane all sidelined. We're certainly not worried about him facing a 28th-ranked Pelicans defense, either. Kemba Walker FD - $6200 DK - $6500 Opponent - DEN Proj Pts FD - 34.92 DK - 36.24 How often do we see a guy like this priced below $7,000? We're talking about a former All-Star who's posting a 28 percent usage rate for the season while seeing his role increase because of Marcus Smart's absence. That doesn't even consider that he's attempting 17 shots a game over his last six outings, making him hard to fade in the low $6K range. He's also coming off two of his best games of the season, averaging 37 fantasy points per game across his last two outings. That directly correlates with his minute's bump, and we're definitely not concerned about him facing a 21st-ranked Denver defense. If you're looking for someone cheaper, Monte Morris could be playing 30 minutes for the shorthanded Nuggets. Shooting Guard Dillon Brooks FD - $5300 DK - $5500 Opponent...
