We’re continuing to miss out on the late games for Friday’s NBA DFS slate as well, since all eight games on the slate tipoff by 8 p.m. ET. We also have some big names missing once again, but now the teams around them have been priced appropriately for the most part. It should be a […]

For just a four-game NBA DFS slate, Thursday is loaded with star power, even with Luka Doncic already being ruled out. Boston and Oklahoma City are on the second leg of a back-to-back so that brings an added element to the slate but we’ll have to find some values.    1. Jaden Hardy started the […]

For an eight-game NBA DFS slate, Wednesday could wind up being a chalky one, because we have a lot of players up in the air. The Minnesota Timberwolves didn’t even get into Boston until early Wednesday afternoon, and they’ve already ruled out point guard Mike Conley. We’ve got other slate-defining players that are listed as […]

FanDuel has decided to only do one NFL DFS slate per day for Wild Card weekend, so we have two games Saturday and three Sunday. It would be fun if they had a full six-game slate to cover every playoff game, but that’s where we are. Let’s outline some targets for each slate so we […]

We’ve got eight NBA games on both DraftKings and FanDuel Wednesday, since they elected to not have any late games. I still don’t get any logic behind this move when they had a DFS slate Sunday that had a 3.5-hour gap between the first and last game, but I digress. There are going to be […]

There are five NBA games ahead of us Tuesday night, and for once, we actually have some strong value plays in DFS. There haven’t been a ton of slates like that this year since teams aren’t sitting players nearly as often. Let’s get into who our main targets should be.  Just remember, it’s always going […]

There are only five games on Tuesday’s NBA DFS slate for the NBA, but there was slate-changing news late Monday night as the Memphis Grizzlies announced that Ja Morant tore his labrum and needs season-ending surgery. It’s a shame for the Grizzlies and the NBA that the young point guard will miss even more time, […]

We’ve got another six-game slate in the NBA on Monday, and DraftKings and FanDuel match for the first time in a little while. We already have one star player ruled out in Damian Lillard, and the Boston Celtics have multiple players listed as questionable, so let’s navigate what’s in front of us.   1. Both […]

This is likely one of those nights where the Core Plays look one way early, but we could wind up pivoting through the night in Discord. The slate is spread out and there are some key teams with questionable players such as the Magic, Mavericks and the Warriors. Let’s get into what we know and […]

The AFC East comes down to the last regular season game of the year, as the Buffalo Bills travel into Miami to take on the Dolphins. Miami is locked into the playoffs, while Buffalo can be the No. 2 seed or be out of the field altogether. As always, be sure to read David’s article on […]

We only have four NBA games in front of us Saturday, but some important questionable tags are vital to the DFS slate. As of now, we have some solid value and some questionable chalk that I think I’d prefer to not play, but we’ll see how things develop in the next couple of hours.  Just […]

The NFL smartly put one of its most important games of Week 18 in a featured spot Saturday, as the Texans and Colts are squaring off for a playoff spot. The winner of this game clinches a playoff spot and can claim the AFC South if the Jaguars lose or tie on Sunday. Let’s talk […]

Week 18 in fantasy football is a mess, for lack of a better word. A bunch of teams are resting players, including the Ravens, 49ers, Browns, Chiefs, Browns, and Rams. There are also plenty of injuries to deal with, and we still have multiple playoff spots on the line.  Let’s take a look at the […]

After a massive NBA DFS slate like we had Friday (at least on DraftKings) and a ton of news that happened after lock, sometimes it’s nice to see just four games on the schedule. That’s where we find ourselves this evening and seven of the eight teams are on the second leg of a back-to-back, […]

DraftKings and FanDuel took a very different approach to the Friday NBA DFS slate, because DK has an 11-game slate while FD has only eight. I’m not exactly sure why FD chopped off games for the main since there are 14 games total on Friday. Even DK has just started to pretend the West Coast […]

After a wild Wednesday in the NBA, we can kind of take a breath on Thursday with just two games. We have the Spurs facing the Bucks and the Warriors taking on the Nuggets. DraftKings and FanDuel didn’t give us much of a break on pricing for this slate, so lineup construction could be a […]

We aren’t going to get the late NBA DFS hammers Wednesday on either DK or FD, as the sites decided not to include the 10 p.m. ET games, so that changes the strategy of how we’re going to build our lineups. We’re still learning about some players in new roles after the Knicks and Raptors […]

We have a twist to the NFL Week 18 DFS slate on FanDuel, because they elected to include the Sunday night, the Dolphins and Bills playing for the AFC East title. That’s not something that normally happens, and it brings the slate up to 14 games. Most importantly, let’s lay out what some teams have […]

Both DraftKings and FanDuel are back to pretending that the West Coast doesn’t exist, because neither platform included the NBA’s 10 p.m. ET games Wednesday, chopping the day’s DFS slate down to 10 games. It was an interesting experiment, but now it’s getting a bit annoying to not have the hammers in the late window […]

Both DraftKings and FanDuel elected to include Tuesday’s late NBA games on the six-game DFS slate, and by the looks of things, those games are quite popular. The Warriors might be the chalkiest team on the slate since they have a new starting lineup and it may be wise to lean into some of it […]

We’ve got another six games in the NBA Tuesday, and on DK, no player is over $11,000, and it might be easier to fit some star players here in DFS. The FD pricing is more of what we’ve come to expect and just like Monday night, we do have games that projecting for a blowout. […]

The NBA kicks off the New Year with six games, and it’s a bit of a later night with five games not starting until 8 p.m. ET or later. We’ve got some big guns to choose from with Nikola Jokic, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Tyrese Haliburton on the slate. That’s not even counting Luka Doncic, who […]

It’s going to be an early night on Sunday since the last game of the five-game NBA slate is at 8:00 p.m. It’s a little bit of a challenging slate right now because we don’t have a lot of missing pieces, so the salary structure is going to be tight.  Just remember, it’s always going […]

Sunday Night Football features the Vikings and the Packers in a massive game for both teams. Both teams would have around a 50% shot to make the playoffs with a win but would plummet to under 5% with a loss, so this is close to win-or-go-home. Always be sure to read David’s article on General Rules […]

The NBA world received a bit of a shakeup Saturday afternoon with a big trade between the Knicks and Raptors. The Knicks are playing the Pacers on Saturday’s DFS slate, so this trade has dramatically shifted the day’s action. We only have four games to choose from, so the Knicks are going to be massive […]

The Week 17 Saturday night NFL game should be a great one, as it carries the highest total of the week and features two of the best teams in the NFC. The Lions are in Dallas to face the Cowboys — ideally for fantasy, we should get plenty of fireworks. Let’s talk about ways to […]

Between injuries and the illness that seems to be going around for everyone, there are a lot of fantasy football question marks heading into Week 17. For this article, we’re going to skip the players who are listed with an illness — there’s really no way of knowing if a player is so sick that […]

We only get four games on the NBA DFS main slate for Saturday as the league winds down a bit heading into the new year. However, these four games are very interesting and leave us plenty of options to choose from, so let’s get to it.    1. Tyrese Haliburton is under $10,000 on DK […]

Friday night brings us a great DFS slate of NBA action with some really strong games to watch both from a real-life NBA perspective and for fantasy. We get a showdown in the West between Denver and Oklahoma City while Sacramento takes on Atlanta, which features a total of over 250 points.    1. Cam […]

Thursday night brings us eight NBA games, and there a lot of players missing, including a star like Luka Doncic. That’s going to make this one a pretty interesting DFS slate to build some lineups for because we’re going to have a nice mix of stars and scrubs to choose from. Just remember, it’s always […]

The NBA is in a nice rhythm right now — we have another eight games on the DFS slate Thursdaym and some amazing spots stand out. There are some wild spreads as the Celtics check in as nearly 18-point favorites over the Pistons and the Lakers are around 12-point favorites against the Hornets, so let’s […]

We are still waiting on some major pieces of news for Wednesday’s six-game NBA DFS slate, but we did already find out half of the Brooklyn Nets are sitting out. With it being a smaller slate, Brooklyn is going to be very chalky against the Milwaukee Bucks. Just remember, it’s always going to be extremely […]
