We've got you completely covered. Point Guard Ben Simmons FD - $8000 DK - $8700Opponent - WASProj Pts FD - 45.22 DK - 44.84 Shake Milton FD - $4300 DK - $5400Opponent - WASProj Pts FD - 24.24 DK - 24.98 Technically, the Sixers have listed Simmons as playing their full-time power forward, but that’s not exactly a perfect description of how they are using him now. It’s definitely a hybrid role that has the ball in his hands at the top of high sets and still facilitating the offense to a certain degree. In the first game he piled on a 19 point, 13 rebound, four assist game against the Pacers. He struggled against the Spurs in the second game, but got burned off hard because of foul trouble. The matchup against the Wizards is too good to pass up at these prices though. A heavy transition game should help him and he’s simply coming too cheap. Meanwhile Milton has had a similar tale of two games with his own games. He was terrible against the Pacers but pulled it back around against the Spurs hitting the game-winner and finishing with 16 points and five rebounds. He, like Simmons, is coming too cheap for the opportunity and opponent. Dejounte Murray FD - $6500 DK - $6000Opponent - DENProj Pts FD - 33.34 DK - 32.67 He got run off minutes in the first Spurs’ restart game because of foul trouble, but the second two haven’t been any problem in that department with Murray running 34 and 29 respectively. His fantasy gift is contributing across every part of the stat line which considerably raises his floor and makes the ceiling up there as well. He put up a 21 point and 10 rebound game against the Grizz, with 13 points and 6 rebounds against the very long Sixers. He’ll now face an undermanned Denver team. I think the minutes stay in the low 30’s and it’s hard to imagine him hurting you at these prices outside...

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks – Tuesday, 8/4/20

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Tuesday, 8/4/20 NBA's restart has been nothing but great basketball action. Let's talk Tuesday's picks for DraftKings and FanDuel. 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 Russell Westbrook FD - $9600 DK - $9400Opponent - PORProj Pts FD - 55.13 DK - 58.33 It’s unlikely, but the Rockets still have an outside shot at the two seed in the West, now trailing the Clippers by three games. And from the start of this thing, they’ve been going for it beating both the Mavericks and the Bucks. Westbrook is averaging 31 points, eight assists and eight rebounds though the first two, though one of those was an OT game. He’s still a relative value against the Blazers and this game has an absurd 243.5 over under, by far the highest of the day. It’s going to be a tough game to fade and stacking the Houston backcourt feels like a great way to start. Chris Chiozza FD - $4000 DK - $5300Opponent - MILProj Pts FD - 25.54 DK - 25.44 Tyler Johnson FD - $4000 DK - $6600Opponent - MILProj Pts FD - 20.93 DK - 21.3 The Nets had already basically decided to/ been forced to punt the restart. But they are taking it to a new (low) level on Tuesday with Caris LeVert, Joe Harris and Jarrett Allen all having been ruled out for this game against the Bucks. They might lose by 100. But someone has to play the minutes, especially in the backcourt. And that run should go to Tyler Johnson and Chris Chiozza. The former started for the latter on Sunday, but I suspect they both run the one and two on Tuesday. Again, the Nets are going to get obliterated, but I do think 30ish minutes for each even in a blowout is reasonable. And they are coming cheap. Shooting Guard James Harden FD - $11100 DK - $11300Opponent - PORProj Pts FD - 57.95 DK - 60.77 Like I said with Westbrook, this game is where we are going to start and stop with cash based almost solely on the total. Harden dropped a 49 point, nine rebound, eight rebound OT game against Dallas but struggled against the Bucks (even in...

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks – Wednesday, 3/11/20

Posted by on Mar 11, 2020 in Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks, DraftKings NBA Picks, FanDuel NBA Picks |

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Wednesday, 3/11/20 Monday's slate was a complete disaster with the crap that Milwaukee pulled but Tuesday was more normal. Random restings are going to become more common over the final month of the season though and it makes things very difficult on us. That's why we're going to try to forecast some potential absences and our first play is definitely one of those guys who could benefit from a teammate being out. Head on over a for your chance to get DFSR PRO, which will give you access to our NBA FanDuel and DraftKings optimizer, our NFL 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 Luka Doncic FD - $11200 DK - $11000Opponent - DENProj Pts FD - 51.35 DK - 53.72 With Dallas playing on Tuesday, it seems very likely that Kristaps Porzingis will sit in the second half of a back-to-back set. That's huge for everyone in this offense, with KP averaging 51.4 fantasy points per game over his last 14 fixtures. That's a lot of production to make-up and it's clear that Doncic is in take-over mode when you see his 40 percent usage rate with Porzingis off the floor. He's also averaging 1.7 DK points per minute with KP sidelined and averaged 53 DraftKings points per game in the 12 games that he's missed this season.   De'Aaron Fox FD - $7800 DK - $7800Opponent - NOProj Pts FD - 43.68 DK - 43.9 Fox is a little bit risky but there's a lot to like about him here. His biggest asset is his matchup, facing a Pelicans team that sits 27th in total defense and third in pace. That fast pace is even more attractive for a guy like Fox, as he's one of the fastest players in the NBA. He's been rolling recently too, scoring at least 33 DK points in 25 of his last 27 games while averaging 41 fantasy points per game in that span. That's rare to see from a player below $8,000 and it's scary to think how many stats he can accrue in this up=tempo matchup.  Kendrick Nunn (FD $4600 DK $4800) would be a fantastic play if Jimmy Butler sits out with his toe injury.  Shooting Guard Bogdan Bogdanovic FD - $5200 DK - $5100Opponent - NOProj Pts FD - 30.81 DK - 31.92 It's crazy that Bogdanovic's price remains so affordable. Not only...

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks – Tuesday, 3/10/20

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 Derrick White FD - $4800 DK - $4600Opponent - DALProj Pts FD - 30.2 DK - 29.92 Dejounte Murray has already been ruled out for Tuesday and doesn’t have a timetable to return. That should open the door for Derrick White to get the start at point guard. White’s per minute numbers are actually decent, averaging 10 points, three assists and three rebounds in 24 minutes per game. If we tick him up into the low 30’s minutes as a projection, which is completely reasonable considering the current Spurs’ personnel he’s looking very much like a cash game play on both sites. Of course, we will hope for confirmation on the San Antonio starting lineup, but if he’s in there White makes a very good play. Coby White FD - $6400 DK - $6800Opponent - CLEProj Pts FD - 35.09 DK - 36.86 Shaquille Harrison FD - $4900 DK - $5000Opponent - CLEProj Pts FD - 40.34 DK - 37.52 The Bulls announced Coby White would enter the starting lineup on Tuesday, replacing Tomas Satoransky in that spot. White had essentially been the nominal starter over the last four games with Zach Lavine out. In that stretch, White’s averaged 35 minutes per game, and 21 shots leading to a 23 point, six assist average. With the move to the starters, I think we can get rather aggressive on the minutes and usage. The price has ticked up some in the short term because of how well he’s played, but he’s still something of a bargain in the middle tier. Meanwhile, Harrison has also been in the starting lineup over the last four with the minutes ramping up each game (16, 26, 34, 36) over that stretch. He’s been a steal machine, averaging almost three swipes per game over the last four. His ability to chip in across the box score, and the prospect of the minutes locking into the upper 30’s makes him a great cash game play on both sites. Point guard is pretty loaded today. There’s a strong case for Ricky Rubio (FD 6700 DK 7500) who’s been playing a lot lately and is coming off a...
