Tonight’s six-game slate is an interesting one and has a couple of late-night hammers that look like they could be the most appealing games on the slate.    We also have one team that is likely to be without their star backcourt, so let’s see where we’re looking to go tonight.  Sign up for an […]

The NBA schedule is a little full today, at least compared to other Sundays. We have six games that tip at 6:00 p.m. ET, and there is a ton of injury news that will have a big effect on the slate. It’s headlined by the Memphis Grizzlies since they will likely be without their top […]

The NBA has eight total games to offer Saturday, but only six are on the main DFS slate for DraftKings, which is always a nice number. It leaves us with some choices, but it’s not overwhelming. It’s also nice that the last game of the night tips off at 8:30 p.m. ET, so there are […]

It’s looking like another fun NBA DFS slate Saturday. Hopefully, we can avoid the illness that seems to be making its way through the league. It costs us in a big way Friday (looking at you, Grayson Allen and Milwaukee beat writers) but there are a bunch of good spots tonight to talk about.   […]

For the first time, the NFL travels to Germany Sunday. When the schedule came out, they likely thought the Tampa Bay Buccaneers would be the showcase team. Instead, it turns out the Seattle Seahawks are the much better squad in the standings.  Let’s look at the DFS outlook for the NFL’s Germany debut.   Seattle […]

It’s nice to finally have an NBA DFS slate that doesn’t have double-digit games, as we have eight in front of us Friday. Some of the biggest stars in the game have already been ruled out so we’ll have some players in different roles. Let’s talk about who we should be looking to play in […]

We have an interesting eight-game NBA DFS slate Friday, with players who are already ruled out, opening up some different avenues for lineups. It’s probably going to be tough to avoid one particular game but that doesn’t mean we don’t have a bunch of good spots.    1. Jevon Carter is up to 1.24 points […]

  We’re on to Week 10 in the NFL, and there are only 10 games on the Sunday main DFS slate once again. Even though seven games are under 44 points for the total, there are still a ton of good spots to target, and we have stars in smash spots. Sorting them out is […]

After a night off for Election Day, the NBA returns in full force with a 12-game DFS slate Wednesday. The matchup in Orlando has been moved, so that game is no longer on the main slate but we have a ton to get through even with one game off the schedule.    Portland Trail Blazers […]

The NBA DFS slate Wednesday isn’t quite as big as Monday’s, but 12 games are still plenty and we have a lot of work ahead of us. There are injuries that the slate hinges on already, but we can start building some lineups with these five stats.    1. Michael Porter is shooting 49.3% from […]

We get a rematch Thursday to kick off Week 10 of the NFL season. We can hope we get another barn burner between the Atlanta Falcons and the Carolina Panthers like they had in Week 8. It’s always tough when division rivals play in close proximity and Thursday, so anything could happen in this one, […]

Monday offers us one of the most unique and challenging slates of the season, because every team plays.    Conversely, everyone is off tomorrow, so this evening is loaded with NBA goodness, and it’s going to be quite the night trying to put together some strong lineups.  Sign up for an FTN subscription today. 1. […]

It’s time to buckle up, because we have all 30 teams in action tonight, and then everyone is off on Tuesday. It’s going to be a long night with games stretching to 10:30 pm for tipoff, so let’s get right after it.    Washington Wizards at Charlotte Hornets  Hornets -3, O/U 221  Wizards Notes  Injuries […]

The Baltimore Ravens travel into New Orleans with an offense that is dealing with vital injuries, but the Saints haven’t had it much easier. Both of these teams might be better than the record shows, but they’ve been very up and down, making life difficult to predict a game script. There are a lot of […]

The Kansas City Chiefs come out of the bye week to host the Tennessee Titans, and these two teams are a very interesting clash of styles. Kansas City has a high-flying offense with Patrick Mahomes at the helm, while Tennessee doesn’t even know who will be the quarterback yet, but they have Derrick Henry. Let’s […]

It’s a slow day in the NBA today, as football gets the most attention, but a three-game slate can be a lot of fun. It also presents a unique challenge, because two games tip at lock.    The late-night hammer starts four hours later, which is a monstrous gap. You need to be aware when […]

We only have four games total today, and the main slate is just three contests. There are already some injuries that are shaking things up. You can see where some of the chalk is likely going to land, so let’s get to it.    Cleveland Cavaliers at Los Angeles Lakers  Cavaliers -4, O/U 222.5 Cavaliers […]

The NBA continues the trend of teams playing against each other on consecutive nights Saturday, as the Phoenix Suns host the Portland Trail Blazers again. There are also a ton of teams on back-to-back situations, so there could be a lot that happens throughout the day that will matter for DFS.    Sacramento Kings at […]

There are eight NBA games total Saturday, with seven on the main DFS slate, featuring five games with spreads under eight points. Even the two games that have wider spreads are still very appealing and there Is likely to be plenty of news, with eight of 14 teams having played Friday.    1. Nic Claxton […]

Friday DFS slates in the NBA tend to be larger, and this Friday is no exception with 12 games. There are also injuries galore so even though we’re not too deep into the season, we already have a lot of situations to go over.    Brooklyn Nets at Washington Wizards  Wizards -3, O/U 222.5 Nets […]

The large NBA DFS slates like the 12-gamer we have Friday are a challenge, because it’s easy to be overwhelmed and feel like we have to play 20 players. There are also a lot of injuries that are changing the slate before tip, with more after tip that can swing the slate. It’s a good […]

Week 9 is going to be one of the smallest NFL main DFS slates of the season with just 10 games, but there are some really fun matchups. We also have some great spots to target at very low prices, but it might take some faith about what certain players have done so far this […]

We’ve got another 10 games in the NBA Wednesday, and there are five games with spreads of five points or under. There are also plenty of injuries that we know of and certainly, more that will be on the way — otherwise, it wouldn’t be an NBA DFS slate.    Let’s look at the day’s […]

On the surface, this sure looks like a game where we want to jam in as many Philadelphia Eagles as we can with one Houston Texan as a run-back option. Philly is still undefeated and they should be able to handle their business without any real issues.    Philadelphia Eagles at Houston Texans  Eagles -14, […]

There are only four NBA games Tuesday, but we have some very interesting matchups. The defending champion Warriors are kind of reeling right now with two straight losses to the Pistons and Hornets. We also have a battle of young guns with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and the Thunder hosting the Magic and Paolo Banchero. Let’s dive […]

It’s not an NBA slate without injuries to deal with, and Monday’s slate brings plenty of them. Multiple players are listed as questionable that could change the slate in an instant, but we can start attacking spots without that full knowledge.    1. DraftKings is broken when they price Tyrese Haliburton  Will he ever be […]

The NBA keeps on rolling with another seven-game slate, and there are a few that stand out with high totals and fast paces. Injuries continue to dictate how we approach the slate, and unless we get news before lock, one game in particular will be a challenge to decide who we need to play.    […]

The AFC North is under the lights tonight, and it’s a massive game with the Ravens already having a win under their belt this week. The Cincinnati Bengals travel to Cleveland in search of a road win against the Browns. Cincinnati will enter this one without one of their best players, but that opens up […]

Before the season started, we would have thought this game would be one of the best of the weekend. However, the Green Bay Packers enter the matchup with the Buffalo Bills as a double-digit underdog. That is something that has rarely been seen when Aaron Rodgers has been active and healthy, but that’s where the […]

The main NBA slate tonight has one game that is sure to be wildly chalky, in part because of the total, and in part because this is the third time we’ve seen the matchup already. There are already some value plays that will be very chalky, so let’s dive in and find out who we […]

It may be another NFL Sunday, but we have seven games on the main slate in the NBA and a showdown slate in the afternoon. Both slates have a lot of injury issues to deal with and will affect everything we do, so let’s get to work and outline our targets.    New Orleans Pelicans […]

The NBA DFS slate is smaller Saturday, with just six games on the main slate and one at 6 p.m. ET, which should be a great fantasy game. There is a lot to get to, so let’s get rolling.   Miami Heat at Sacramento Kings  Heat -4, O/U 227.5  Heat Notes Injuries – Victor Oladipo, Omer […]
