NBA DFS Strategy and Picks for Tuesday (2/6)
For a six-game NBA DFS slate (seven on FanDuel) like we have Tuesday, we still have a lot of questions that need answering. Multiple teams have players up in the air to play, so the core has a relatively high probability of changing before tipoff. We can still start to highlight situations that will be […]

NBA Best Bets of the Day (2/6)
Welcome to Hoops with Noops! It’s time for a TNT Tuesday of NBA action. We have mostly nonconference matchups with a few division games as well. Nonconference games are always interesting because these teams don’t play each other as often, but they can be harder to handicap because there is less reason for each team […]

5 Stats to Know: NBA DFS February 5
There are six games on Monday’s NBA DFS slate, and there are plenty of injuries that can help dictate the slate. If Luka Doncic is out for the Dallas Mavericks, it’s going to make the builds quite interesting. On DraftKings, that would mean no player is more expensive than $10,100, which doesn’t seem to happen […]

NBA DFS Strategy and Picks for Sunday (2/4)
The first Sunday without competitive football in the NFL means the NBA has a bigger slate of seven games, so we have plenty of options to choose from. There is one team that will be heavy chalk, but that’s not a surprise given how many players they are likely to have available for the game.  […]

5 Stats to Know: NBA DFS February 3
There are only five games on the Saturday main slate, but it has the potential to be a loaded one since there are 10 players who are above the $9,000 threshold on DraftKings. Now, that’s subject to change because we have four teams on the second leg of a back-to-back situation, so we never know […]

It’s a nine-game NBA DFS slate Wednesday, and it’s likely to be dominated by the Dallas Mavericks.
