5 Stats to Know: NBA DFS January 31
It’s a nine-game NBA DFS slate Wednesday, and it’s likely to be dominated by the Dallas Mavericks. Even though they are facing Minnesota, they have ruled out enough players that we have to consider a lot of Dallas options despite the blowout risk. We also get Denver traveling to Oklahoma City to face the Thunder […]

5 Stats to Know: NBA DFS January 30

The smaller slate is dominated by injuries once again, including one on the late game that is slate-defining.    1. […]

5 Stats to Know: NBA DFS January 29
For the first time in a while, we have double-digit games on both DraftKings and FanDuel. For some reason, FanDuel left off the Nuggets and Bucks game at the end of the night, but DraftKings does have that option. We have plenty to get to, so let’s dive in.   1. Julius Randle is expected […]

Saturday’s main NBA DFS slate doesn’t have the Nikola Jokic and Joel Embiid showdown on it, but there are some other very fun games to target. Five of the 12 teams on the slate are on the second leg of a back-to-back, so there could be a lot of moving parts on this one.    […]

NBA DFS Strategy and Picks for Wednesday (1/24)
Wednesday is going to be an interesting night of NBA DFS, because DraftKings and FanDuel are quite different. DraftKings has included the last two games of the night while FanDuel did not, so the strategy is not going to be the same.  Just remember, it’s always going to be extremely important to keep up with […]

It’s been an eventful Tuesday in the NBA as the Milwaukee Bucks fired head coach Adrian Griffin despite a 30-13 record while the Miami Heat acquired guard Terry Rozier.

NBA DFS Strategy and Picks for Monday (1/22)
Monday night’s slate has already changed to some extent, because both the Wolves and Celtics have ruled out key players, and Minnesota still has a questionable tag on Anthony Edwards. That game doesn’t start until an hour after lock, so we may not have news, but the Wolves are facing Charlotte at home, so it’s […]
