Baseball might be in full swing, but the NBA has a great slate of action on Friday with 10 games. True, we have to wade through an injury report that’s about as long as my arm, but that gives cheap players a bigger opportunity and makes it fun to build, so let’s get to work. […]

5 Stats to Know: NBA DFS April 4
Thursday offers a five-game NBA DFS slate, and at the moment, the team to focus on is the Philadelphia 76ers. Joel Embiid, Tyrese Maxey and Tobias Harris are all on the injury report, though all three did participate in shootaround.

With it being MLB Opening Day, there are only two games in the NBA world Thursday. The Pelicans are easily the most intriguing team on the DFS slate, as they remain without Brandon Ingram, though the Hawks could be pretty shorthanded again, too.   1.

It’s a crowded NBA DFS slate Wednesday, with 10 games to deal with. The slate is going to be locked up early as almost all the action is on the front end of the night and I’m sure we’ll have injury situations that will change the approach to this slate at some point.    1. […]

The NBA is really getting down to crunch time, with just a handful of games left on the schedule, and some great teams to target are in action Monday. However, we do have the issue of the spreads being double-digits in seven of the nine games, which really adds a degree of difficulty in DFS. […]

For once, I’m actually not that upset that we don’t have the late-night hammer, because Denver is taking on a Portland squad that played on Friday night. Not only is the spread enormous, but both Jamal Murray and Nikola Jokic are questionable. It’s one less aspect to deal with, although the six-game slate leaves us […]

DraftKings and FanDuel have very different slates for Monday night, as DK decided to give us every game for once, meaning they have an eight-game main slate. FD only went with a five-game main slate, so the complexion is totally different. Regardless of which site you’re playing, it’s a challenge since only one game has […]

Thursday’s NBA DFS slate has a chance to be a truly crazy one because there are a ton of injuries we don’t have answers for yet. Multiple players left games Wednesday early, not to return.

The NBA treks forward with another seven games Tuesday, and as is usual at this point of the year, there are plenty of injury issues to deal with in DFS. There is also at least one very suspicious line as the Celtics are on the second leg of a back-to-back but are 6.5-point favorites in […]
