Point Guard Kyrie Irving FD - $9300 DK - $9300Opponent - WASProj Pts FD - 49.09 DK - 50.3 James Harden is questionable for this game and with the Nets already resting Kevin Durant on Friday there’s some chance another member of the big three gets to sit in this one as well. If that’s the case, then Kyrie would be a near-lock against the Wizards. Washington is the second-worst defense in the league this season and that’s not just because of the Covid protocol stuff. They stink. Since coming back from his hiatus, Irving is averaging 28 points and five assists per game. If Harden were to sit then the usage would undoubtedly increase. Darius Garland FD - $5200 DK - $5600Opponent - MINProj Pts FD - 29.31 DK - 30.46 Garland is playing without a minutes limit now since coming back from injury and has been productive over the last week or so. He’s had double-digit scoring in each of the last three games and put up 17 shots last game in the loss to the Knicks. He needs to score to hit value and he’ll have a great chance for it against the Timberwolves who have trouble stopping anyone on defense. They are also dealing with a number of different injuries as well so this is a great spot for the Cavaliers. Shooting Guard Collin Sexton FD - $7100 DK - $6800Opponent - MINProj Pts FD - 37.61 DK - 38.54 Sexton gets to face up against one of the league’s worst defenses in this matchup against the Timberwolves who rank 27th on the season in defensive efficiency. Sexton has shot poorly from the field in three of the last four games which has driven down his scoring totals. Plus the blowout against the Celtics was a total outlier. I think there’s still plenty of upside on the price point, especially on DraftKings. This will be easily the best matchup he’s had in the last week and that’s a great time to buy with the price dipping. Jeremy Lamb FD - $5400 DK - $5200Opponent - PHIProj Pts FD - 29.6 DK - 29.65 Jeremy Lamb is firmly...

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks – Saturday, 1/30/21

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Saturday, 1/30/21 Head on over a 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.

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 - $9700 DK - $10600Opponent - CHIProj Pts FD - 56.28 DK - 59.35 With CJ McCollum out with the injury, this has fully become Damian Lillard’s team on offense. I mean, it basically was anyway, but with CJ out of the mix, the usage ticks up even more. Over the last five, Dame is averaging about 20 shots per game and has put up 33 points per game that stretch. You won’t often see runs like that and the price hasn’t come close to reflecting the output, at least not on FanDuel. He’s basically a must-play in cash on that site. It’s a little closer on DraftKings where he’s one of the most expensive plays on the slate. But I think you can do it there as well considering he’s playing Chicago who ranks 26th in team defense this season. Chris Paul FD - $7200 DK - $7600Opponent - DALProj Pts FD - 38.96 DK - 41.96 The Suns are still without Devin Booker in the lineup on Saturday with him trying to recover from the hamstring injury. The Suns have missed Booker, losing two of their last three games. Paul has stepped up his usage in the short term, even before the Booker injury. Over the last six games, he’s getting up 21 shots per game and averaging 25 points per game. Where it’s dropped off for him some is in the assist department. He’s only averaging 3.5 dimes per game in that stretch including a game against the Wizards in which he had zero. That’s mildly concerning but it’s also keeping his price in a completely fair range. Shooting Guard Zach LaVine FD - $9000 DK - $8800Opponent - PORProj Pts FD - 47.59 DK - 49.92 Lavine will take on the Blazers who’ve been decimated by injuries in the short-term losing McCollum, Nurkic, and now Derrick Jones from their starting lineup. They already ranked 28th in defensive efficiency and it’s hard to imagine them making gains in the short-term. Lavine is having the best scoring season of his career, putting up 27 points per game thanks to shooting close to 40% from...

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks – Friday, 1/29/21

Posted by on Jan 29, 2021 in Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineups, Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks, DraftKings NBA Picks, FanDuel NBA Picks, featured |

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Friday, 1/29/21 After just four games on Thursday, we have a full 10-game ledger here. What's really nice is that we have no postponements! This is one of the largest slates we've had without postponements, and it feels like all the COVID chaos is starting to simmer down a bit in NBA circles. That makes things a bit easier on us, but there's still a ton of value out there. With that in mind, let's go ahead and get into 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 MLB Optimizer, and NHL Projections as well. Plus our new player lab!

We've got you completely covered. Point Guard Reggie Jackson FD - $5800 DK - $6700 Opponent - ORL Proj Pts FD - 33.07 DK - 34.33 DFS sites are always slow to adjust to players gaining bigger roles, and that's certainly the case here with Jackson. The former Detroit PG has been forced into a monster role recently, with Paul George, Patrick Beverley and Kawhi Leonard all sidelined. In the last two games without those three guys, Jackson has collected 36 points, 15 rebounds, 14 assists, and three steals across 76 minutes of play. That's a two-game stretch you'd usually see from an $8,000 player, and it's pretty clear that he's a fantastic value in the $6K-range against a weak Orlando backcourt. Darius Garland FD - $5200 DK - $5000 Opponent - NY Proj Pts FD - 26.24 DK - 27.31 This is probably my favorite per-dollar play on the board. Garland was performing at a $7,000-level the first two weeks of the season before getting injured, and a slow ramp-up has lowered this price tag. The good news is that he's back in the starting lineup, and the minute's restriction has been limited. In his first five starts before getting injured, Garland averaged 36.3 DK points per game across 36 minutes a night. That looked like the guy we saw on Wednesday, dropping 26 fantasy points across 31 minutes of play. All of that makes this $5K price tag truly shocking, and it limits any risk that this tough matchup might present. Elfrid Payton is in the low $5,000s, and his averages are too good to be priced that cheaply. Shooting Guard Bradley Beal FD - $10500 DK - $10200 Opponent - ATL Proj Pts FD...

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks – Thursday, 1/28/21

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Thursday, 1/28/21 After one of the biggest slates of the season on Wednesday, we have just four games here. It's going to be a fun one though because we have so much value out there. Whether it's injuries or COVID protocol, there are a ton of great players not playing among these eight teams. That will surely be a major theme in this article with so many guys stepping in, so, let's go ahead and get into 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 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 - $9700 DK - $10600 Opponent - HOU Proj Pts FD - 52.4 DK - 54.87 There's always one big-name player who's owned in every lineup on a four-game slate and it should be Dame here. We say that because he is the Trail Blazers offense right now. Portland is currently missing Jusuf Nurkic, Robert Covington and C.J. McCollum which leaves Lillard to feast. With those three off the floor this season, Lillard has a usage rate approaching 40 percent while averaging 1.4 DK points per minute. That's certainly evident when you see that Lillard has at least 50 fantasy points in four-straight coming into this matchup. We haven't even talked about that matchup yet either, with Houston sitting seventh in pace and middle of the road defensively. Reggie Jackson FD - $5000 DK - $7000 Opponent - MIA Proj Pts FD - 33.12 DK - 34.12 While this DraftKings price is a bit lofty for us, this FanDuel price is ridiculous. The simple fact is, Jackson is the go-to guy in Los Angeles right now. We say that because they're currently without Kawhi Leonard, Paul George and Patrick Beverley. That forced Reggie into the starting lineup on Tuesday, providing 20 points, seven rebounds, eight assists and two steals across 39 minutes of action. That's the guy we remember from his Detroit days and his usage should continue to be monstrous with so many big-name players out of the lineup. Miami is not the defense we used to be scared of either, ranked 21st in defensive efficiency. Delon Wright has been the primary ball-handler in Detroit and remains a good value around $6K. Shooting Guard Kendrick Nunn FD - $6200...

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks – Wednesday, 1/27/21

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Wednesday, 1/27/21 If you're into DFS chaos, this is going to be your slate. We have 12 games in total on this slate, with numerous injuries and COVID protocol violations. That means a lot of things will change all the way up until first tip and it's imperative to keep your eyes and ears on the news. We do have some information now though and we'll bank on some of those circumstances to find some value. Head on over a 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 Stephen Curry FD - $9600 DK - $9300 Opponent - MIN Proj Pts FD - 51.66 DK - 54.62 What is with this pricing? We'd probably recommend Curry if he was a five-figure player but this $9,300 on DraftKings is ridiculous. We're talking about a guy who's averaging 28.4 points, 5.5 rebounds, 6.0 assists and 1.2 steals per game. That equates to 48 fantasy points per outing, with Curry dropping at least 44 DK points in four-straight. One of those happened to come against these T'Wolves, with Curry splashing 54 DK points on them Monday Night. That's really no surprise when you consider that Minnesota ranks fifth in pace and 27th in both points allowed and defensive efficiency. Cole Anthony FD - $5000 DK - $5500 Opponent - SAC Proj Pts FD - 27.77 DK - 28.9 While this rookie struggled early on, it appears he's starting to get his feet underneath him. An injury to Markelle Fultz really opened up a ton of minutes for Cole, starting at PG and playing 30 minutes a night over his last 11 games. His statistics have been on the uptick too, averaging 28 DraftKings points per game over his last eight fixtures. That's a heck of a total from a player in the $5,000s on both sites and one has to believe this is just the beginning of a great career. The matchup is the icing on the cake though, with Sacramento ranked 29th in total defense. If Tyler Herro and Jimmy Butler remain out, Goran Dragic is a great value around $6,000. Shooting Guard Eric Bledsoe FD - $5500 DK - $5800 Opponent - WAS Proj Pts FD - 31.07 DK - 32.16 Bledsoe is always...
