There’s also discussion about the Celtics this season without Kyrie Irving or Al Horford, the Dallas duo of Luka Doncic, the completely turned over Knicks and even wading into some of the bad teams for DFS...

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Wednesday 10/23/19 After a shorter two-game slate to start the season, Wednesday feels like the day things really tip off with 11 games across the league. There are plenty of ways to speculate on minutes and new roles in what's a turned over league. Let's go through some cash game plays for FanDuel and DraftKings.   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 Terry Rozier FD - $7000 DK - $7300Opponent - CHIProj Pts FD - 35.61 DK - 36.57 The Hornets are going to be terrible, of that there is little doubt. They lost Kemba Walker in the offseason and got only really a max-contract Terry Rozier back in *return*. This is going to be a rough season for the Charlotte fan(s). But it doesn’t mean we can’t get DFS value going from a bad team. Rozier was their “prize” from free agency. He led the team in usage for the preseason which isn’t surprising and that should be the case over the course of the year as well. We don’t have a fantastic idea of what his stats will look like now that he’s out of Boston and is the focal point of the offense. But if the plan is for him to take over even like 75% of Walker’s shots from last season, or something like 14-15 shots at least, then he has major upside on these prices. Again, you can play players from bad teams and maybe the only thing we are fading with Rozier is the blowout. De'Aaron Fox FD - $8600 DK - $7700Opponent - PHOProj Pts FD - 40.45 DK - 40.21 The Kings have a team they think can make a playoff push this season, and I can’t say I doubt them. They put pieces together in the offseason that signal a push toward “respectability” with guys like Harrison Barnes (overpaid), Trevor Ariza (overpaid) and Dewayne Dedmon (nice piece). But for all of their signings, those minutes won’t cut into Fox at all who actually could see a tick up in court time this season. He played 31 minutes per game last season and I wouldn’t be shocked for that go up a couple. He averaged 17 points, seven assists...

DFS NBA Podcast - FanDuel and DraftKings Plays for Opening Night Tuesday 10/22/19 Basketball is officially back and the DFSR crew is already in midseason form with their DFS NBA Podcast for FanDuel and DraftKings. Now’s your chance to get DFSR PRO, which will give you access to our NBA, NFL and NHL optimizers and our new player lab! Get started for free by clicking the button below. START YOUR FREE TRIAL NOW! It’s a two-game slate for FanDuel and DraftKings with some big matchups to start the season. The bummer is that Zion Williamson won’t make his debut for the Pelicans after it was reported he would miss 6-8 weeks with a meniscus tear. But the Pelicans still have plenty of firepower with Jrue Holiday, Brandon Ingram and Lonzo Ball. They’ll take on a Toronto Raptors team that lost Kawhi Leonard and Danny Green in the offseason but is actually still a rather projectable unit. Pascal Siakam is looking close to a cash game lock on this slate and other Raptors like Kyle Lowry, Fred VanVleet and even O.G. Anunoby could make for safe and reliable options at their current price points. The second game between the Lakers and the Clippers should make for a great one as well. The Lakers bring in Anthony Davis in the offseason to compliment Lebron James and with the additions of Avery Bradley and Danny Green, this is a new-look purple and gold squad. Davis could be something of a chalk play on both sites with Javale Magee an interesting option at center. On the Clippers’ side, the guys discuss Kawhi Leonard making the move to LA, Montrezl Harrell possibly playing even more this season and some other pieces that could make for DFS...

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Tuesday 10/22/19   Basketball is back baby! Before a big Wednesday of hoops, we get a two-game slate to tip things off. Following the craziest offseason of all-time, we have an almost completely new NBA to figure out. Superstars teamed up, franchises went through major overhauls and there's an entire new landscape in the league. But we've got you covered during what could be a tumultuous beginning of the year.   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 Patrick Beverley FD - $5100 DK - $5000Opponent - LALProj Pts FD - 27.45 DK - 27.58 Beverley hasn’t ever been much of a scorer, often defaulting to an elite on-ball defender who lets others take over the offense. It’s been a role that’s suited him and earned him a three-year payday in the offseason from the Clippers. But his role could be expanded to start this season. The Clips shipped off Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Danilo Gallinari for essentially Kawhi Leonard and Paul George, but the latter will sit the first ten games. While PG's absence isn't a one-to-one comp for opportunity, one has to assume Beverley’s role and rotations are uber-safe for the Clippers to start the season. We could even see a slight uptick in his usage and he’s been a knock down three-point shooter (40%) over the last two seasons. He’s coming at reasonable prices for a higher minutes floor on this opening slate and I don’t love some of the pay up options at point guard. Fred Vanvleet FD - $5600 DK - $4800Opponent - NOProj Pts FD - 31.87 DK - 32.37 For a team that won a championship and then promptly lost its best player, we actually have a pretty good idea of Toronto’s plan this season. That’s because last year we saw plenty of this club without Kawhi Leonard. The latter missed 22 regular season games and the rest of the team more than picked up the slack. VanVleet often drew the start and it looks like FVV will enter the starting lineup this season alongside Kyle Lowry. With Leonard off the court last season VanVleet saw roughly a 5% tick up in usage and the minutes should be incredibly safe to start...

With FanDuel and DraftKings releasing early pricing, the guys thought it a great chance to begin looking at the upcoming NBA season and give some insight into how they produce their projections and what this year will mean with such massive turnover in the NBA. It’s a season unlike anything we’ve seen before with so much superstar upheaval and it could make for some interesting theories on projections especially early on. The guys use the first night’s games, a two-game slate, to give an inner look at how they think about things like usage, playing time and opportunity for players in new situations. They discuss the new-look Pelicans, a Raptors team without their Finals MVP, how the Lakers will use their big-two and of course the Clippers who now have Kawhi Leonard but will be without Paul George to start the season. Then they roll through some over/under season win totals on MyBookie.ag (Promocode: Overtime) with some thoughts about teams compared to last year and what it means to bet in this current iteration of the NBA.

And finally we took a look at the Portland...
