After a day off on Tuesday, the NBA is back with a vengeance with a massive 12 game slate of action on Wednesday. The potential debut of Zion Williamson has people buzzing, but for DFS purposes we're focusing on other things tonight. It's certainly a night to look for overwhelming value, with plays like Kemba Walker, Buddy Hield, Donovan Mitchell, Monte Morris, and Marvin Bagley still looking very under-priced. While we aren't forecasting a lot of true sub-$4,000 plays to enable a stars and scrubs strategy, you should be able to capture enough excellent mid-range value to play either Harden or LeBron. Which of the superstars to play is sort of a debate here, with Doug and James taking opposite sides on the discussion. Tune in to hear a break down of every single game on the slate, and all you need to know before jumping in to contests on FanDuel and...

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks – Wednesday 1/22/20

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Wednesday, 1/22/20 After a crazy 14-game slate on Monday and a bizarre one-gamer on Tuesday, we're back at it with 12 games here. What I love is that we have only one double-digit spread. That's a DFS player's dream after a ton of blowouts on Monday and it makes the picks so much easier to make. With that in mind, let's kick things off with one of the hottest players in the NBA!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.

Point Guard Ben Simmons FD - $9300 DK - $9300Opponent - TORProj Pts FD - 51.07 DK - 51.82 Ever since Joel Embiid went down with injury, Simmons has been one of the best players in the NBA. In fact, the Aussie is averaging 21.7 points, 10.7 rebounds, 8.2 assists and 2.1 steals across his last nine games played. The most important part about that is that he's averaging 40 minutes a game in that span while handling the ball on nearly every possession. That's led to a 53-point average on DraftKings while scoring at least 45 fantasy points in all but one of those games.  Monte Morris FD - $4000 DK - $4800Opponent - HOUProj Pts FD - 30.08 DK - 29.75 All of the injuries in Denver have really opened up things for Morris. While his fantasy production hasn't been great, there are signs that it will turn around shortly. When starting at point guard last season, Morris averaged 31 fantasy points per game. That looked like the guy we saw on Monday against the T'Wolves, with Morris dropping 27 DK points across 36 minutes of action. If he plays 36 minutes, we love him against a Houston club who surrenders the third-most fantasy points to opposing point guards this season. As long as Gary Harris and Jamal Murray remain out, Morris continues to be a great value below $5,000.  Goran Dragic and Dejounte Murray are both in consideration facing two of the worst defenses in the NBA (Washington and New Orleans). Shooting Guard Donovan Mitchell FD - $6200 DK - $7800Opponent - GSProj Pts FD - 39.62 DK - 41.02 This FanDuel price is simply ridiculous. If you take out one dud where Mitchell played just 21 minutes...

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks – Monday 1/20/20

Posted by on Jan 20, 2020 in Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineups, Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks, DraftKings NBA Picks, FanDuel NBA Picks, featured, News |

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Monday 1/20/20 Monday in the NBA hits hard with 14 games spread throughout the day, and the sites are all over the place with how they break it down. While DraftKings packs nine games into their early slate, the FanDuel early consists of only three contests. This would make giving you early/main slate plays a real headache, so I'm just going to breakdown some of the top plays at each position for the entire day. Then if you need more feel free to pop on into our members chat for even more analysis right up until each slate locks. Not a member? Well then there is no time like the present to hit that red banner down there and get your free trial, but first, let's check out some picks!

We've got you completely covered. Point Guard Lonzo Ball FD - $6700 DK - $7000 Opponent - MEM Proj Pts FD - 38.03 DK - 39.11 Lonzo Ball has been playing some of the best hoops of his young career this season. In just the past few weeks he's posted three triple-doubles which doubles his career total, and the Pelicans aren't shy about giving him complete run of the boards with him averaging 42 minutes per game over his last three. So it's a mystery why the sites aren't budging on his price. DraftKings has even decreased the cost by almost $1K just over the weekend. Since December 29, Ball is averaging 38.18 fantasy points per game, which should have him priced in the low to mid $7K range, making him an absolute bargain. Memphis come into the day with the 25th ranked defense from a fantasy perspective, allowing the fourth-most points and second-most rebounds to opposing point guards. Another triple-double could very well be in the cards for Ball tonight, and if so he should surely be a part of some winning cash game lineups. Monte Morris FD - $4000 DK - $4700 Opponent - MIN Proj Pts FD - 29.39 DK - 29.16 Jamal Murray has missed two games already with an ankle sprain, and it feels safe to say he's going to remain sidelined yet again tonight as the Nuggets head into Minnesota on the...

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks – Saturday, 1/18/20

Posted by on Jan 17, 2020 in Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineups, Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks, DraftKings NBA Picks, FanDuel NBA Picks |

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Saturday, 1/18/20 Before a tiny two-game slate on Sunday, we have a nice nine-gamer here. There are two games being played earlier in the day but we're going to go ahead and avoid those. What's also good news is the fact that we have every game starting by 9ET, making the injury reports much easier to figure out. With that in mind, let's get into our favorite plays of the day! 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. 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 Chris Paul FD - $7100 DK - $7000Opponent - PORProj Pts FD - 37.5 DK - 38.19 It's hard to understand why these sites keep Paul's price so affordable. Over his last 21 games played, Paul is averaging 38.9 DraftKings points per game across 33 minutes of action. That's the dude that we loved in his Clipper days and why he should be $1,000 more on each site. What makes him really attractive here is the matchup though, with Portland owning a 26th OPRK against opposing point guards this season. That's clear when you see that CP3 has at least 36 fantasy points in two of his three games against Portland this season.  Markelle Fultz FD - $5400 DK - $6200Opponent - GSProj Pts FD - 32.2 DK - 32.04 Fultz just recorded the second triple-double of his career earlier this week against the Lakers and that emphasizes just how much he's grown this season. Not only has he scored at least 26 DraftKings points in eight of his last nine games, Fultz is also averaging 32 fantasy points per game in that span. The thing that's really added to his value is the fact that D.J. Augustin is injured. Those two were essentially splitting the point guard minutes before and his absence should guarantee Fultz 30-35 minutes every night. We happen to love this matchup against a Golden State club who sits 23rd in defensive efficiency as well.  Shabazz Napier is definitely too cheap with Jeff Teague being shipped off to Atlanta.  Shooting Guard D'Angelo Russell FD - $7300 DK - $7400Opponent - ORLProj Pts FD - 38.01 DK - 40.28 Russell is quietly having a nice year for the Warriors and it's clear that he's going to remain...

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks – Wednesday, 1/15/20

Posted by on Jan 15, 2020 in Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineups, Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks, DraftKings NBA Picks, FanDuel NBA Picks, featured |

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Wednesday, 1/15/20 We have 10 games ahead of us here, with some great matchups on the ledger. What makes this one fascinating is the fact that we have a ton of superstars available. James Harden, Luka Doncic, LeBron James, Anthony Davis, Nikola Jokic and Karl-Anthony Towns all sit above $10,000 on DraftKings and we'll offer up two of those guys to build around. With that in mind, let's break it down!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. 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 Ben Simmons FD - $8500 DK - $8700Opponent - BKNProj Pts FD - 48.45 DK - 49.16 With Joel Embiid out for the next few weeks, Philly players are going to be prominent in these articles. We're talking about a guy who's averaging 23 points and 12 rebounds per game while leading the team with a 31 percent usage rate.  That's a ton of usage to make-up and it has turned Simmons into one of the best fantasy producers in the NBA. Not only has he scored at least 35 DK points in 15-straight games, Simmons is also averaging 17.6 points, 8.7 rebounds, 8.5 assists and 2.2 steals per game in that stretch. That's all you can hope for, especially against a 19th-ranked Nets defense.  Tomas Satoransky FD - $4600 DK - $6000Opponent - WASProj Pts FD - 27.88 DK - 27.82 Satoransky's price on DraftKings is a bit surprising with his recent struggles but it's more indicative of where he should be priced at in a matchup like this. Playing against the Wizards is a treat for anyone, with Washington ranked dead-last in both points allowed and defensive efficiency. Not to mention, they own a 30th OPRK against opposing PGs according to DraftKings. We have to love that for a stat-stuffing player like Sato, with the versatile point guard averaging 27.8 DraftKings points per game across his last 14 fixtures, despite playing poor recently. Not to mention, this is a revenge game for the former Washington guard.  Malcolm Brogdon remains too cheap since his return from injury and should exploit a 25th-ranked Minnesota defense.  Shooting Guard James Harden FD - $11700 DK - $12400Opponent - PORProj Pts FD - 68.01 DK - 71.52 Harden is in the midst of a...
