Point Guard/ Shooting Guard Damian Lillard FD - $10400 DK - $11100Opponent - WASProj Pts FD - 54.21 DK - 60 Damian Lillard was a chalk option on Monday for good reason and he could that again here on Monday against the Wizards. Dame started slow, but finished strong against the Lakers, scoring 40 points in the win. He took 23 shots, his most since January 25th against the Jazz. The usage saw an uptick with Jerami Grant out of the lineup though the latter is questionable for this game. While he’s really up there in price now, Portland has the highest implied total on the slate and are in a great spot against Washington. Derrick White FD - $7200 DK - $7100Opponent - MILProj Pts FD - 39.78 DK - 42 Malcolm Brogdon FD - $5600 DK - $5700Opponent - MILProj Pts FD - 34.29 DK - 37.79 It looks like Jayson Tatum is going to sit out this game with an illness and Jaylen Brown is already out of the mix with a facial fracture. Oh, and Marcus Smart has been out injured for some time now. The Celtics are really thin going into this game and for starters, we should see a lot of minutes and usage out of Derrick White. White has played 37 or more minutes in each of the last four games, and over the last six, he’s averaged 22 points, six assists, and six rebounds. The price has come up in the short-term, but not enough for the current opportunity with Boston missing so many guys in the backcourt and on the wing. Meanwhile, Malcolm Brogdon isn’t likely to start, but he should be called on for an uptick in minutes in this game considering the state of the Celtics’ injury issues. He only played 18 minutes against the Hornets, and also sat out last game. But here he could push 30+ minutes off the bench mostly because Boston will need his offense. Small Forward Giannis Antetokounmpo FD - $12000 DK - $12700Opponent - BOSProj Pts FD - 61.93 DK - 66.74 While we typically don’t want to run guys into the Celtics on...

DFS NBA Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings – Monday 2/13

Plus our new player lab! Get started for free by clicking the button below. START YOUR FREE TRIAL NOW! Guards Jordan Poole FD - $7800 DK - $7800 Opponent - WAS Proj Pts FD - 40.01 DK - 42.64 For you regular readers, it probably feels like a copy/paste job with Poole but as long he remains under $8K with Curry out, he is as close to a lock as there is right now. He has been especially dominating over this last three-game stretch with Steph out averaging 49.5 DK points and going back to the start of December(16 games) is averaging 28.9 points on 21.8 shots and over 41 fantasy points per game with Curry out.  It's only an average matchup against the Wizards(15th in def eff) but the projected usage at this price still has him as a top PTS/$ play in all formats. Brandon Ingram FD - $7800 DK - $7800 Opponent - OKC Proj Pts FD - 42.67 DK - 43.81 There are five guards over $10K on DraftKings(three on FD) but I much prefer a balanced attack when looking at the slate from a PTS/$ perspective. Ingram was eased back in after missing two months with a toe injury but has been terrific since returning to his 30+ minute role(five games) averaging 26.4 points on 19.6 shots and 43.8 DK/42.4 FD points per game. While the Thunder are mid-pack in overall defensive efficiency the have given up the 3rd most fantasy points to guards. This game has the highest total on the board and Ingram is a top target for me in all formats. Jordan Clarkson FD - $6200 DK - $6700 Opponent - IND Proj Pts FD - 30.65 DK - 32.67 Collin Sexton FD - $5500 DK - $5200 Opponent - IND Proj Pts FD - 28.12 DK - 29.38 The Jazz unloaded guards Conley, Alexander-Walker, and Beasley before the deadline and that, in turn, has created a ton of value with Clarkson and Sexton. Let's start with Clarkson who is has been very consistent in the short-term averaging 19.8 points, 5.0 rebounds, 3.7 assists, and over 32 fantasy points per game over his last six games. The volume is there as he has taken 19 or more shots in three of his last four and the price is still under $7K in plus matchup against the Pacers who run at a Top 10 pace and rank 24th in defensive efficiency. For Sexton,...

DFS NBA Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings – Sunday, 2/12

Posted by on Feb 12, 2023 in Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineups, Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks, DraftKings NBA Picks, FanDuel NBA Picks, featured |

FanDuel NBA Picks and DraftKings NBA Picks - Sunday, 2/12/23 This was one of the craziest weeks of the NBA season, with the trade deadline on Thursday mucking up the whole league. It felt like every role player was shipped to a new city, and it's taken a few days to adjust to these new-look teams. Most acquisitions finally suited up on Saturday, but we don't have much of that here. In fact, we have just two games in total because it's the NFL's day to shine. They are two interesting matchups, though, and we still have plenty to discuss! Head on 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. Plus, our new player lab!

We've got you completely covered. Point Guard Fred VanVleet FD - $8600 DK - $9000 Opponent - DET Proj Pts FD - 40.22 DK - 40.64 VanVleet hasn't played up to the All-Star level we've become accustomed to, but this point guard is starting to turn his season around. The stat-stuffing guard is averaging 46 DraftKings points per game across his last 13 outings. He's also scored at least 61 DK points in three of those, flashing a 73-point upside in that span. That's brilliant from a $9K player, and it should be easy to duplicate against Detroit. The Pistons rank 29th in both points allowed and defensive efficiency. In their most recent matchup, FVV finished with 24 points, five rebounds, and 10 assists en route to 53 DK points. Killian Hayes FD - $5400 DK - $4900 Opponent - TOR Proj Pts FD - 27.21 DK - 27.59 Hayes was horrible in a bench role when he returned from an injury, but we have to assume he'll return to his early-season form since he's been reinserted into the starting lineup. In his 34 starts this season, Hayes is averaging 30 DK points per game across 30 minutes a night. He's done that with some lackluster shooting, and the stat-stuffing ways have made Hayes an excellent value in this $5K price range. He's also posting a 28-point average across his last three outings and played a career-high 39 minutes in his most recent outing. If this guy is going to play 35-40 minutes as the Pistons starting point guard, Hayes needs to be $1,000 more on both sites. Shooting Guard Derrick White FD - $6800 DK - $6700 Opponent -...

DFS NBA Picks for FanDuel and DraftKings – Saturday 2/11

Guards Trae Young FD - $9700 DK - $9500 Opponent - SA Proj Pts FD - 45.99 DK - 49.51 Trae has been one of the most consistent high-priced fantasy plays all season and has been especially dominant in the short term. He comes into Saturday with double-doubles in seven of his last eight games averaging 26.1 points/11.5 assists for 49.9 fantasy points per game. The floor is elite and we get a good shot at seeing the upside again here in a matchup against the Spurs league-worst defence playing on a back-to-back. Trae is a core play for me in all formats. Jalen Brunson FD - $7900 DK - $8600 Opponent - UTA Proj Pts FD - 41.15 DK - 41.89 Brunson has one of the safest floors in the league in terms of playing time as he is averaging 35 on the season and just over 39 per game going back to Christmas. The next part of the equation is what he does with all that playing time and over his last 19 games, he is averaging 28.5 points on 20.5 shots and has delivered an average of just over 44 fantasy points per game. He not only provides a safe floor for cash games but he also provides upside scoring 50+ fantasy points in three of his last five. There is a good chance we get a similar performance in a great matchup vs the Jazz who rank 26th in defence and 29th in fantasy points to guards. Fire up Brunson in all formats. Jordan Poole FD - $7800 DK - $7500 Opponent - LAL Proj Pts FD - 39.63 DK - 42.08 With Steph Curry still out of the lineup for the Warriors, it is a bit of a mystery to me how Poole's price has remained in the sub $8K range on both sites. Going back to the start of December, Steph has missed 15 games with Poole starting all of them, playing 35 minutes a game, averaging 28.9 points on 21.5 shots while providing us just over 40 fantasy points per game on average. This game has a very high total(238.5) and should get there as these are the #1 and #2 ranked teams in terms of pace while ranking 18th and 21st in defence. Poole is a core play in all formats. Small Forward...

Daily Fantasy DraftKings and FanDuel NBA Picks – Friday, February 10, 2023

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/ Shooting Guard Damian Lillard FD - $10400 DK - $10900Opponent - OKCProj Pts FD - 52.55 DK - 57.61 The Blazers sent out Josh Hart and Gary Payton at the deadline leaving the team a little thinner at guard/ wing heading into this game. But they still very much seem like a team that would like to win in the short-term, maybe making the play-in game if possible. Lillard has run major minutes lately, going 40 or more in four of the last five games. In that stretch he’s averaged 34 points, 7.4 assists, and six rebounds. The matchup against the Thunder should be up and down the court and he makes for a high floor option. Derrick White FD - $6100 DK - $6100Opponent - CHAProj Pts FD - 36.99 DK - 38.47 The Celtics are going to be without Jaylen Brown because of a facial fracture he suffered. This should keep Derrick White running big minutes going forward and we’ve seen him capitalize on the opportunity. He’s averaging 36 minutes a game over the last five scoring 19 points and pulling seven rebounds per game in that stretch. The pricing has creeped up but doesn’t totally reflect the opportunity and this is a great matchup against the Hornets. Jaden Ivey FD - $5600 DK - $5300Opponent - SAProj Pts FD - 33.02 DK - 36.12 Killian Hayes FD - $6000 DK - $4700Opponent - SAProj Pts FD - 30.84 DK - 32.61 The Pistons get one of the best matchups of the slate facing off against the Spurs. San Antonio has played the sixth-fastest pace in the league and is easily (easily!) the worst defense there is. While Detroit hasn’t wanted to always run their starters major minutes, both Jaden Ivey and Killian Hayes should push around 30 here, making them value looks on DraftKings especially. Again, even with a tanking team without tons of minutes upside, this is just the kind of spot to stack these two. Collin Sexton FD - $5200 DK - $4000Opponent - TORProj Pts FD - 27.1 DK - 30.2 The Jazz traded away Mike Conley, Malik Beasley and Jared Vanderbilt around...
