NBA DFS Strategy and Picks for Saturday (11/4)
We have a solid seven-game NBA DFS slate for Saturday night. Below, I’ll give you my core plays for the slate on both DraftKings and FanDuel. It is extremely important to keep up with the news up until lock. If you are new to NBA DFS, players often get ruled out, so staying on top […]

5 Stats to Know: NBA DFS November 4
Friday night was arguably the best night of hoops in the young NBA season with an overtime game and a late matchup that threatened 290 real points combined. I’m not sure if Saturday’s seven-game slate will be nearly as enjoyable, but we have a lot of appealing matchups and spots to attack.   1. Utah […]

NBA DFS Strategy and Picks for Friday (11/3)
We have a seven-game NBA DFS slate Friday. As of now, it appears that balanced lineups are going to be the way to go. There isn’t a ton of reliable value so the likes of Luka Doncic and Nikola Jokic will be harder to pay for. Let’s talk about who the main targets are keeping […]

5 Stats to Know: NBA DFS November 3
The NBA In-Season Tournament starts Friday, although I’m not sure that anyone outside of the NBA knows exactly how things work for this tournament. The league has been split into six five-team groups and each team plays the other once, we move into the “elimination” stage after that, with the semifinals and finals being played […]

5 Stats to Know: NBA DFS November 2
Thursday’s four-game NBA DFS slate could be a challenge if we don’t get some news during the day, because the biggest piece of the puzzle is Devin Booker, and the Suns are the last game of the night. There isn’t much of a realistic pivot on FanDuel, although it’s a bit easier to work with […]

NBA DFS Strategy and Picks for Wednesday (11/1)
Wednesday is one of the largest NBA DFS slates of the season, and it’s opening up a lot of plays that are going largely ignored right now. That’s exciting although we should keep in mind that things can still change a ton before lock.  Just remember, it’s always going to be extremely important to keep […]

5 Stats to Know: NBA DFS November 1
NBA DFS slates don’t get much bigger than Wednesday’s 13-game monstrosity, and we can bank on some chaos before we get to lock. The Pistons might be without one of their young stars in addition to a litany of other issues around the league, so let’s get to work.    1. Jalen Duren was not […]

NBA DFS Strategy and Picks for Tuesday (10/31)
We only have three games for the NBA DFS slate Tuesday, but there are plenty of situations to take advantage of, especially in the late games. We are still waiting for news on Caris LeVert of the Cleveland Cavaliers because he popped up as questionable after the shootaround.  Just remember, it’s always going to be […]

5 Stats to Know: NBA DFS October 31
We’ve got a very interesting three-game NBA DFS slate on tap for Tuesday night with one late-night hammer that could provide us with some interesting value. We also still have missing star players in Devin Booker, Bradley Beal, Darius Garland and Jarrett Allen, so let’s get rolling.    1. Kevin Durant has a 37.4% usage […]

NBA DFS Strategy and Picks for Monday (10/30)
The week kicks off with a loaded 11-game NBA DFS slate that honestly doesn’t feature a ton of value at the moment. One team does stand out above the rest, however, but as always with fantasy basketball, be on the lookout for the inevitable news that drops.   FanDuel Core LaMelo BallJrue HolidayTyrese HaliburtonScoot HendersonBen […]

5 Stats to Know: NBA DFS October 30
Monday brings us a large 11-game slate, and there are seven teams on the second leg of a back-to-back, so we should be aware of that. Four of those teams were involved in blowouts on Sunday, so hopefully they approach tonight as a normal day. The two teams I’d be worried about most are the […]

NBA DFS Strategy and Picks for Sunday (10/29)
At least as of now, we have far less chaos than Saturday for this NBA slate. We’ll see if that continues, because we do have some questionable players still. Let’s lay out the slate and see who we’re targeting. The biggest question mark right now is Joel Embiid since the 76ers played on Saturday evening, […]

Only the 76ers are on the second leg of a back-to-back situation, but that doesn’t always mean much, so let’s dive in.   1. Damian Lillard played 37 minutes on Thursday  It […]

NBA DFS Strategy and Picks for Saturday (10/28)
These cores are going to be written at about 3:30 ET, so be very aware that things are likely to change. Not only did the Miami Heat give us a ton of value by resting key players, but Cleveland could be in the same position. They already ruled out Darius Garland and Jarrett Allen, but […]

5 Stats to Know: NBA DFS October 28
Saturday night represents possibly the best NBA slate so far this season because it’s seven games, and that’s the most reasonable number of games we’ve had. Two-game slates can be tough, and anything over 10 games can be overwhelming, so this is the sweet spot for a lot of folks.    1. Desmond Bane has […]

Wednesday brings us the first full day of NBA chaos as we have 12 games, a sharp departure from just two Tuesday. I said this a lot last season, but one thing to remember on DFS slates like this is every single lineup only has eight slots on DraftKings and nine on FanDuel. That means […]
