Tonight brings us eight NBA games, and the late-night hammer is fascinating since the Pacers are facing the Warriors with a 241.5 total.    The catch is the spread is 10 points in part because Indy will be without star guard Tyrese Haliburton, so let’s explore how to attack it and the other seven games.  […]

These eight-game slates for the NBA always feel like the sweet spot because it gives us options, but we’re not overwhelmed with options. It should also be a competitive slate with most games at a seven-point spread or under, so let’s start digging in.    Los Angeles Clippers at Charlotte Hornets  Clippers -2, O/U 217  […]

We have a major clash in the NFC South on Monday night between the New Orleans Saints and Tampa Bay Buccaneers, and it has serious playoff implications. Someone has to win this division, and it is currently the Bucs despite a 5-6 record. The Saints are only two games behind in the loss column, and […]

I’m not sure what we as football fans have done to get the Indianapolis Colts in primetime for the second week in a row, but at least anything beats the Denver Broncos. The Colts travel to Dallas this time to take on the Cowboys, who need to continue to rattle off wins in the cutthroat […]

Out of the eight games today, only one has a spread over seven points, so we should get plenty of strong environments today.    The Five Stats are going to focus on the six-game slate that’s functioning as the main slate. The other two games are covered in the Game-By-Game Breakdown.  Sign up for an FTN […]

It’s another pretty crowded day in the NBA with eight games total, and they’re split into a two-game slate and then the main slate of six games. There are a couple of games that we should have circled for fantasy and for real life, so it’s going to be a fun day in the association.  […]

There are other games today that are covered in the Game-By-Game Breakdown, but for the Five Stats article, we’re focused on the four-game main slate.    Every game is still covered, and we have the full suite of tools up and running as always, so let’s figure out what stats are going to help us […]

The NBA action is spread out all day with a showdown slate, a two-game slate and a four-game main slate tonight, so you’re going to have choices. There are also some solid matchups today even though a star like Luka Doncic is only on a showdown slate. Let’s get right to work and see who […]

This article will cover my NBA GPP DFS plays for the day. It is extremely important to keep up with the news up until lock, and Friday we might need to really pay attention to the Indiana game at 9 p.m. ET. We all know that NBA is a crazy sport and things change in […]

Thursday’s one-game NBA DFS slate is firmly in the rear-view mirror, and we’ve got 11 Friday, and most teams are relatively healthy. This might be one of the cleanest injury reports for the top stars on a slate that we’ve had in a while and that’s going to make it a fun night.    Washington […]

Friday’s 11-game NBA DFS slate has a ton of firepower to it and even though there are a few games with some blowout potential, there are a couple of elite environments that we’re going to want a part of. Let’s talk about five stats that can help build a lineup and who can be some […]

  This is one of the most fascinating DFS weeks of the season to my mind, as we have some matchups between some really strong teams that should be fun games. The fantasy implications are a little bit harder to figure out in some spots, but it feels like every game is offering something. Let’s […]

I know there is an NFL game Thursday, but we only have one NBA game the night after we had to deal with a 13-game slate. The Dallas Mavericks are in Detroit to take on the Pistons, and maybe that’s not the most exciting game but the spotlight is on Luka Doncic. But we can’t […]

Wednesday’s is not the NBA DFS slate for everyone, because it is a massive 13 games. It’s a lot to take in and it’s always a good time to remind you that everyone else plays with the same number of roster spots. It’s impossible to make a lineup that fits in every single play you […]

It seems like the Buffalo Bills have been on a prime-time slate every other week this season, and they’re back again when they face the Patriots in New England. This is a rare Thursday game where both teams have a full week of rest before kickoff since both were featured on the Thanksgiving slate. It’s […]

There are just three games Tuesday in the NBA, but they are not without their challenges for DFS. We have one game that doesn’t start until 10 p.m. ET, so that could throw us a bit of a curveball but the best matchup on paper is the Warriors heading into Dallas to face the Mavericks. […]

It’s a small DFS slate in the NBA Tuesday with just three games, but we have one marquee matchup and two other games that offer plenty of fantasy appeal. We are still missing some stars from the Clippers in the late game but the Warriors facing the Mavericks make up for that loss. Let’s dig […]

It’s another very fun-looking slate of NBA action tonight, and the later games might be the ones that help dictate our success.    We’ve got multiple late hammers, including the Indiana Pacers and the Los Angeles Lakers out on an island with a 10:30 p.m. ET tip. That game should be a barn-burner. Let’s set […]

We’ve got another crowded slate tonight, as there are 10 games in the NBA and a couple that stand out right away. Seven players have crossed the $10,000 threshold on DraftKings, so finding some value will be key, but that shouldn’t be an issue. We’ve got a ton to talk about and sort through, so […]

The Pittsburgh Steelers travel to Indianapolis to take on the Colts this week, and we could see a bit of a defensive battle. Both offenses have talent but also have plenty of question marks at the quarterback position. This should be a solid game, so let’s see who we’re going after.    Pittsburgh Steelers at […]

This is one of those games that looked better at the start of the season since the Green Bay Packers have been below expectations. We don’t even have the Philadelphia Eagles chasing an undefeated season anymore, but what we do have is a fight in the NFC East. The Cowboys won on Thursday to keep […]

It’s a crowded slate for the NBA today since we have two different slates.   It’s missing some star power, but there are at least one or two games on each slate that look very fantasy-friendly.  Sign up for an FTN subscription today. 1. Anfernee Simons is third in 3-point attempts per game He is […]

This is one of the few times this season we’ve had a split slate, as we have four games in the afternoon and then five at night. Some of the matchups may not be the most sizzling on paper, but we have some strong ones overall, and as usual the injuries change the landscape of […]

For only three games, there are a couple of very fun spots to target tonight. Every team is in a back-to-back situation, but all three games tip off within one hour of each other.    That should give us all of the information we want for pivots and targets, so let’s get into the stats.  […]

It should be a much more calm night in the NBA tonight since we only have three games on the main slate. All six teams played last night, so there’s always a chance for unexpected curveballs. But there are some very fun spots to attack tonight.    Dallas Mavericks at Toronto Raptors  Mavericks -2.5, O/U […]

The NBA was off Thursday, so it’s no surprise that there are 28 teams in action Friday, with 13 games on the main DFS slate and an appetizer at 5 p.m. ET. There are also some really fun matchups for real-life NBA and some great matchups for fantasy that are likely to be chalky, so […]

There is a ton of action on tap Friday for the NBA, with a 13-game main DFS slate, and there is a ton of news to keep track of. Some of the teams are entering with a clean bill of health while others are missing multiple key players and there are high totals to chase.  […]

  We got one of the better Thanksgiving Day slates in recent memory Thursday, and hopefully, that leads us into a great Sunday main NFL FDS slate. There are 11 games again this week, but I feel as if this slate is a lot more wide-open than last week. There are a ton of spots […]

Nothing says Thanksgiving Eve like a massive NBA DFS slate with 12 games and a boatload of injuries. The association is off Thursday, so we have 24 teams in action, and there are some dynamite games on paper. One game has about the highest total we’ve seen to this point, so let’s get busy and […]

It’s not Thanksgiving without a healthy dose of football, and for the most part we have good teams on the DFS slate. The six teams have combined for a 39-22 record, and only the Lions have a losing record. We should get a really good day of football, so let’s get rolling and see who […]

For a four-game NBA DFS slate, we have a ton of bodies missing, and that makes things challenging in a different way than some other night. Three of the four games have an identical seven-point spread which is interesting and we’re going to get to know plenty of bench players.    Brooklyn Nets at Philadelphia […]

It’s an interesting slate with no game carrying a large spread and plenty of spots to attack. Just about every game has a solid total, and for eight games we are mostly healthy.    The NBA is incapable of having a fully healthy slate, but this one is looking fairly straightforward, so let’s talk about […]
