FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Wednesday, 12/18/19 After a slow Tuesday night, we're back at it with nine games here. One thing that we love is the fact that no game has a double-digit spread. That's a DFS player's dream and it should make for a big scoring night. Without further ado, 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 NFL Optimizer and NHL Projections as well.

Point Guard Kemba Walker FD - $7600 DK - $7400Opponent - DALProj Pts FD - 41.12 DK - 42.64 These are some strange prices. Walker has done nothing but produce all season long and he should be $1,000 more on each site. In fact, Kemba is averaging 23.1 points, 4.2 rebounds and 5.3 assists en route to over 40 DraftKings points per game. That alone is north of 5X value at this price and we love that he gets a matchup against an undersized Jalen Brunson. His form has been even better recently, averaging 44 DK points per game across his last eight fixtures.  Jalen Brunson FD - $6000 DK - $6000Opponent - BOSProj Pts FD - 32.03 DK - 33.06 With Doncic out of the picture, Brunson is one of the best values plays on the board. That's about 30 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists out of the lineup which doesn't even include his 20-plus shots and 30 percent usage rate. Brunson is definitely keen on taking care of a good amount of that, scoring over 37 DK points in the two games Doncic has missed. Playing at least 32 minutes in both of those while receiving starts tells us that he's the go-to guy in his absence and we have to continue to use him until he gets closer to $7,000.  Chris Paul is coming off the best game of his season and gets a super matchup against a bad Grizzlies defense.    Shooting Guard Jrue Holiday FD - $8200 DK - $7800Opponent - MINProj Pts FD - 44.92 DK - 45.28 With Zion Williamson and J.J. Redick likely missing this game, Holiday should get a ton of shots, minutes and usage. While that's already been the case, we absolutely love that for a talented player like this. We're talking about a guy who's averaging more than...

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Tuesday, 12/17/19 Welcome back lovers of games of skill! Tuesday night in the NBA brings us a six-game slate full of excitement and intrigue! We've got value plays, studs, and the will he or won't he drama of Anthony Davis all packed into one evening of hoops action! So why are we wasting time up here in the intro? Let's jump into the picks!! 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 Spencer Dinwiddie FD - $8300 DK - $7500 Opponent - NO Proj Pts FD - 41.31 DK - 42.45 We'll get things started with a little bit of "Din-sanity!" Spencer Dinwiddie and the Nets hit the Big Easy high off of a statement win against the Sixers at home on Sunday. Dinwiddie led the charge for Brooklyn with a game-high 24 points in just 29 minutes of play. It was his fourth-straight contest with that total. The Pelicans have been straight-up terrible defending against the point this season, allowing more fantasy points than any other team to the position. Of the four games that I have opening lines on as of this writing, this game promises to be the marquee matchup with a projected total of 230.5 and a mere 1.5 point differential. I'm expecting a big night for Dinwiddie and love him as a cash option. Trae Young FD - $10000 DK - $9900 Opponent - NY Proj Pts FD - 46.8 DK - 49.66 Last night, the theme at the point was to get in and get out on the cheap, not so tonight. Our NBA projection system loves the big money plays tonight and it's not hard to see why. Trae Young has exploded on the scene in his sophomore season, filling out the stat sheet night in and night out. In 36 minutes against the Lakers, he dropped 30 points, the third time in six games he has hit that total. Mix in six rebounds and seven dimes and we have the makings of a solid evening of fantasy production. The turnovers can be a problem, but that's not something to be overly concerned with against the Knicks. This is another game with a 1.5 point differential in the spread so anticipate a...

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Saturday, 12/14/19 After a big nine-game slate on Friday, we're back at it here with seven games. What is interesting about this slate is the fact that we have numerous teams in the second half of a back-to-back set. In fact, we have the Bulls, Clippers, Heat and Grizzlies all playing in the back end of a B2B. These are all teams that have a propensity to rest players in these circumstances, so that's going to be a major key in this article. With that in mind, let's breakdown this slate. 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 Eric Bledsoe FD - $7200 DK - $6700Opponent - CLEProj Pts FD - 34.57 DK - 35.33 With Giannis Antetokounmpo dealing with a quad injury and suiting up on Friday, we're going to bet that he sits out here. When Giannis is out, Khris Middleton and Eric Bledsoe become two of the best plays on the board. With last year's MVP off the floor, Bledsoe is leading the team with a 33.4 percent usage rate while averaging 1.43 DK points per minute. That rate would equate to 50 fantasy points in 35 minutes of action which would be absurd production from a player in the $7,000-range. The matchup against Cleveland isn't too shabby either, with Cleveland ranked 26th in defensive efficiency.  NOTE: Bledsoe left Friday's game with a shin contusion which would make George Hill and Pat Connaughton good options if he sits out! Ish Smith FD - $5800 DK - $5400Opponent - MEMProj Pts FD - 28.11 DK - 28.12 With Isaiah Thomas dealing with an ankle issue, Smith is one of the best values out there. The simple fact is, this dude has always been productive when starting. Not only has he played at least 31 minutes in the last four starts he's made, Smith has also scored at least 22 DK points in all of those. That 4X floor is hard to overlook and he's shown us in the past that he has 40/50-point potential whenever he receives 35 minutes of play. We especially love the speedster against a team like the Grizzlies, with Memphis ranked sixth in pace and 26th in points allowed.  If Goran Dragic is...

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Friday, 12/13/19 A quick note on these picks before we get started. There are two big pieces of injury *news* that I’m operating under right now. The first is that Giannis Antetokounmpo will sit out again on Friday. The Bucks don’t have a lot of incentive to rush him back and they get a bad Memphis team. The other is that Kawhi Leonard will sit out the front end of this back-to-back. Him sitting on Friday and playing Saturday makes a lot more sense with spacing out the rest between his games. If either or both change then this would make the writeups very different. I’ll make alternate notes about plays outside of these two teams of course. But these are my baseline assumptions.

Point Guard Eric Bledsoe FD - $6700 DK - $6700Opponent - MEMProj Pts FD - 41.67 DK - 42.3 George Hill FD - $3600 DK - $4100Opponent - MEMProj Pts FD - 21.52 DK - 21.84 It really doesn’t look like Giannis is going to play on Friday against the Grizzlies after sitting on Wednesday in the game against the Pelicans. The Bucks didn’t need him in the former and likely won’t need him in the latter either. Bledsoe goes from a 23% usage on the season to 32% with Antetokounmpo off the court. He took 13 shots in just 25 minutes on Wednesday finishing with 29 points and six assists. Even with the price increase AND risk of blowout (because that’s just what Milwaukee does) we could be staring down another Bledsoe chalk night on Friday. He was 90%+ owned in cash games against the Pelicans and could see similar numbers on Friday. Meanwhile Hill played 19 minutes on Wednesday and got there with 13 points, three assists and three steals. I think he actually could be in line for a few more minutes here if the game stays even a little closer and makes for an interesting cheap play. Tyus Jones FD - $4300 DK - $3700Opponent - MILProj Pts FD - 19.58 DK - 19.29 De'Anthony Melton FD - $4100 DK - $3900Opponent - MILProj Pts FD - 28.51 DK - 27.63 Ja Morant has already...

  FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Wednesday, 12/11/19 This is one of the largest slates in recent memory, with the NBA treating us with an 11-game schedule. That's all we can ask for in terms of DFS, as there are a ton of great picks out there. That's why we'll offer up the two-best plays on the board and mix in a bunch of value plays around them. With that in mind, let's 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 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 Spencer Dinwiddie FD - $8000 DK - $8100Opponent - CHAProj Pts FD - 41.99 DK - 43.22 Dinwiddie has been an absolute monster since Kyrie Irving went down. It's not just Irving though, as Caris LeVert's absence has only added to Dinwiddie's value. That's really evident when you see that he has a 33 percent usage rate with those two off the floor while averaging 1.3 DK points per minute. That has led to him scoring at least 35 DK points in all 12 starts he's made for Irving while averaging 40 fantasy points per game. That's especially intriguing against a Hornets club who sits 27th in defensive efficiency.  Kyle Lowry FD - $8000 DK - $7100Opponent - LACProj Pts FD - 43.26 DK - 45.44 It's really hard to figure out why these DFS sites are keeping Lowry's price so affordable. The biggest reason we like him is his workload, ranking second in the NBA with over 37 minutes player per night. That absurd playing time has led to him averaging 39.7 DK points per game which is truly a ridiculous total from a player barely cracking $7,000. While Los Angeles is certainly a tough matchup, this should remain a competitive game between two tough teams, guaranteeing Lowry for another 35-40 minutes.  D'Angelo Russell is dominating the usage in Golden State, making him a great option against the Knicks.  Shooting Guard James Harden FD - $12200 DK - $12900Opponent - CLEProj Pts FD - 65.69 DK - 68.5 Harden is always a good pick and it's going to be tough to fade him in a spot like this. We're talking about the league leader with 62.1 DK points per game averaging close to 70 fantasy points since a subpar start...
