Point Guard Stephen Curry FD - $9600 DK - $9500Opponent - PHOProj Pts FD - 47.53 DK - 50.25 The Warriors got off their opening season schneid against the Pelicans on Monday, winning the game rather easily. It was game they kind of needed in order to turn around what had been a disaster opening to the season. Curry was vintage Steph going for 26 points and 10 assists on 9-17 shooting (4-10 from three) in just 31 minutes. He was a chalk play on both sites on Monday and I suspect that’s the case here again on Wednesday against the Suns. The latter has actually played very good defense to start the season and rank among the best in terms of defensive efficiency. That being said, the Warriors, as an entire group are still priced because of their problematic first two games. This is still a spot to buy on Golden State even on a big slate. De'Aaron Fox FD - $8100 DK - $7800Opponent - CHAProj Pts FD - 43.08 DK - 43.04 Speaking of disaster starts to the season, the Kings are 0-4 out of the gate and have looked, at times, like a complete mess. Granted, they’ve had a tough run against the Nuggets, Jazz, Blazers and Suns (who might not be terrible) but this is still a team that should be keeping games closer than they have been. Part of the problem is Luke Walton’s early rotations that haven’t seemed to emphasize starter minutes. That turned around some last game against the Nuggets when Fox played 36. He had 20 points and nine assists for his second-best fantasy game of the season. Now Sac-Town will get their easiest matchup yet against a bottom-feeding Charlotte team ranked second to last in defensive efficiency. If the minutes stick then this is a...

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Monday, 10/28/19 Monday is a big slate in the NBA with plenty of moving parts and some teams still trying to figure things out.

We've got you completely covered. Point Guard Dejounte Murray FD - $7000 DK - $6100Opponent - PORProj Pts FD - 36.09 DK - 35.38 Murray isn’t playing a ton of minutes, but when he’s on the court he’s about as efficient as it gets. Dude is averaging 12.5 shots in fewer than 24 minutes and has a 19 point, nine rebound, five assist, 2.5 steal line through the first two. That is about as as it gets considering the minutes and though Murray’s price has come up a bit since the start of the season, he’s still something of a value here. The Portland backcourt isn’t all that great shakes when it comes to defending around the perimeter though Murray’s game is predicated more around the midrange and getting to the basket. The only real concern here with Dejounte is the minutes stick in the lower-to-mid 20’s and that’s a thin margin when it comes to the price. Trae Young FD - $9400 DK - $9000Opponent - PHIProj Pts FD - 46.29 DK - 49.26 The good news first: Young has been about as good as you can possibly be to start the season. He’s averaging a ridiculous 39 point/ nine assist/ seven rebound line through the first two. The second-year guard is putting it all together in a transition toward superstar status right before eyes. The minutes area also consistently high for a 2-0 Hawks’ team that might be a feisty squad going forward in the East. If you want to find a possible piece of *bad* news it’s that Young isn’t going to continue shooting 55% from three on ten attempts per game. There’s definitely some run hot with the scoring so keep that in mind when you look at the scoring output. But the assists and rebounds do show the ability to keep the fantasy scoring floor high even if the shot isn’t falling completely. That’s a great sign for cash games. Other thoughts If Joel Embiid were to...

Point Guard Luka Doncic FD - $10100 DK - $9500 Opponent - POR Proj Pts FD - 48.88 DK - 51.02 Point guard is sort of a mess on this 4 game main slate, which makes Luka look like a straight-forward pay-up option. He's averaging 52.5 fantasy points a game this season, and while you could argue that he's had great match-ups in New Orleans and Washington, all you can really do is beat the team that's in front of you. He actually could present size issues for the Portland wings, and when you look at the rest of the position "high floor" options just don't really exist. I'll be pretty unhappy if my final lineups don't have Luka involved. Terry Rozier FD - $6500 DK - $6400 Opponent - LAL Proj Pts FD - 31.16 DK - 31.84 Did I mention that point guard is thin? Because it's really heckin' thin. I'm not a huge believer in Rozier necessarily, but I was actually encouraged by his game two performance against the Timberwolves. While foul trouble limited him to just 18 minutes, he still managed a double-double, and given how thin Charlotte is I just can't figure out what they will do if they don't at least try to lean on their "big ticket" off season acquisition. Given that I really don't want to pay up for Kyrie against Memphis or Lillard against Dallas, I'm not really seeing the other attractive options here.   Shooting Guard Tyler Herro FD - $5300 DK - $5600 Opponent - MIN Proj Pts FD - 27.66 DK - 28.17 For as good as Herro looked in his first game against Memphis, he looked a lot more like a rookie against Milwaukee. Still, Herro seems locked into a 32-33 minute rotation until Butler gets back, and as of now, Butler is still slated to miss this one. The Miami rookie should have a great match-up against the defensive duo of Teague and Napier, and if he's really going to keep taking 15 shots a game it's hard to imagine him not being a $5,300 player in a plus match-up. Caris Levert FD - $6400 DK...

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Saturday 10/26/19   It's our first Saturday slate of the NBA season, and with a few games under our belt, things are starting to look a little more clear. Of course, we did win the first three main slates of the season on both FanDuel and DraftKings, so maybe more sanity isn't necessarily a good thing. Let's take a look!

We've got you completely covered. Point Guard Malcolm Brogdon FD - $6900 DK - $6500Opponent - CLEProj Pts FD - 36.6 DK - 37.25 Brogdon was Indiana's big off-season get, and there is a lot of pressure on his shoulders until Victor Oladipo returns. The concerns prior to the season seemed legitimate. Could he thrive without the benefit of Giannis' gravity drawing the defense elsewhere? It's all well and good to go 50/40/90 as mostly a bench guy, but what about when the spotlight shone brightest? Well, things looked pretty good for Brogdon in his first outing. He scored an efficient 22 points on 13 shots, and chipped in a somewhat surprising 11 assists as well. We don't want to get carried away about one game, but that's honestly not even what we're doing here. We're just seeing Brogdon translate last season's skills to a full time role in Indiana. I'm a buyer, and think the price has room to climb another 15%-20% here. Going up against a porous Cleveland defense doesn't hurt, either. The Cavs were dead last in defensive efficiency last season, and given that they did nothing to address their defensive difficulties, Brogdon should have his way once again. Kyle Lowry FD - $7600 DK - $7300Opponent - CHIProj Pts FD - 40.02 DK - 41.6 I'm still just buying as much Raptors stock as I can. Lowry didn't light the world on fire in the Raptors' opener, but it's painfully obvious that Nurse and company plan to address their relative lack of depth by leaning on the starting cast. Lowry played an astonishing (irresponsible)? 40 minutes in regulation in the opener, and while there may have been some emotion involved in that decision given that the Raptors were playing their first game since becoming world champions, I still think the plan is to run...

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Friday 10/25/19   The NBA season has barely started and it already feels like a ton has happened. Overtime games, looks at new teams, some surprises, a big-name suspension, and more. It's been nuts. Now we get a big Friday on the schedule with nine games on the schedule. Let's take a look at some plays for FanDuel and DraftKings.

We've got you completely covered. Point Guard Kyrie Irving FD - $9700 DK - $9000Opponent - NYProj Pts FD - 47.21 DK - 48.31 Kyrie came about an inch away from turning his first game as a Brooklyn Net from amazing to transcendent. Irving was everything the Nets could have hoped for and more. He dropped 50 points on 17-33 shooting, with eight rebounds, seven assists and zero turnovers. It was basically like pitching a perfect game considering how damn efficient he was on the offensive end. He’ll have a chance to put up big numbers again on Friday against a Knicks’ team that simply can’t figure out what it wants to do at point guard. They started Alonzo Trier on Wednesday, but ceded way to Elfrid Payton and DSJ later. This team is already seeming like a mess and I suspect Irving comes out firing again with the Wednesday loss still fresh. That context aside, at these prices and his current implied usage it’s awfully tough to fade his scoring here. Mike Conley FD - $7300 DK - $6800Opponent - LALProj Pts FD - 37.07 DK - 37.7 Conley had all kind of issues in his first game as a Jazz. He got into foul trouble (finished with 5) which ended up costing him some minutes. But even when he was on the court, the shooting was the thing of nightmares. He put up a 1-16 from the field and somehow, because they are so good, the Jazz still pulled out a victory. The thing to be encouraged going forward though is the usage. If the plan is to have him as this kind of focal point of the offense, then these prices are entirely too low. We are buying low because of the horrific shooting. This is a good matchup against the Lakers who did give...
