NBA Best Bets of the Day (1/11)
Welcome to Hoops with Noops! It’s a TNT Thursday with two potential playoff previews for us to enjoy. It’s still very early in the season, but teams still raise their level when facing a squad they may have to play in April or May. These are opportunities to test out plays or schemes you […]

NBA DFS Strategy and Picks for Thursday (1/11)
With an afternoon game in Paris between the Cleveland Cavaliers and Brooklyn Nets, Thursday’s NBA slate is down to a modest four games, though there is still plenty of value to be had thanks to the Dallas Mavericks. Just remember, it’s always going to be extremely important to keep up with the news until lock […]

5 Stats to Know: NBA DFS January 11
For just a four-game NBA DFS slate, Thursday is loaded with star power, even with Luka Doncic already being ruled out. Boston and Oklahoma City are on the second leg of a back-to-back so that brings an added element to the slate but we’ll have to find some values. 1. Jaden Hardy started the […]

NBA DFS Strategy and Picks for Wednesday (1/10)
For an eight-game NBA DFS slate, Wednesday could wind up being a chalky one, because we have a lot of players up in the air. The Minnesota Timberwolves didn’t even get into Boston until early Wednesday afternoon, and they’ve already ruled out point guard Mike Conley. We’ve got other slate-defining players that are listed as […]

5 Stats to Know: NBA DFS January 10
We’ve got eight NBA games on both DraftKings and FanDuel Wednesday, since they elected to not have any late games. I still don’t get any logic behind this move when they had a DFS slate Sunday that had a 3.5-hour gap between the first and last game, but I digress. There are going to be […]

NBA Best Bets of the Day (1/9)
Welcome to Hoops with Noops! It’s not a TNT Tuesday, but maybe one of these Tuesdays it will be. Instead of watching the best studio show in all of sports, we’ll have to resort to NBATV and local broadcast crews through NBA League Pass. The good news is that we have five games that may […]

NBA DFS Strategy and Picks for Tuesday (1/9)
There are five NBA games ahead of us Tuesday night, and for once, we actually have some strong value plays in DFS. There haven’t been a ton of slates like that this year since teams aren’t sitting players nearly as often. Let’s get into who our main targets should be. Just remember, it’s always going […]

5 Stats to Know: NBA DFS January 9
There are only five games on Tuesday’s NBA DFS slate for the NBA, but there was slate-changing news late Monday night as the Memphis Grizzlies announced that Ja Morant tore his labrum and needs season-ending surgery. It’s a shame for the Grizzlies and the NBA that the young point guard will miss even more time, […]

NBA DFS Strategy and Picks for Monday (1/8)
We have a modest six-game NBA slate to kick off the week.

Just remember, it’s always going to be extremely important to keep up with the news until […]

NBA Best Bets of the Day (1/8)
Welcome to Hoops with Noops! Last week on “The NBA Regular Season,” we saw the Lakers and Warriors somehow get worse, a trade that benefited both teams and so much more. January can be a tough time for NBA fans because teams are positioning themselves for the trade deadline and beginning to rest their best […]

We’ve got another six-game slate in the NBA on Monday, and DraftKings and FanDuel match for the first time in a little while. We already have one star player ruled out in Damian Lillard, and the Boston Celtics have multiple players listed as questionable, so let’s navigate what’s in front of us. 1. Both […]

NBA DFS Strategy and Picks for Saturday (1/6)
We only have four NBA games in front of us Saturday, but some important questionable tags are vital to the DFS slate. As of now, we have some solid value and some questionable chalk that I think I’d prefer to not play, but we’ll see how things develop in the next couple of hours. Just […]

After a massive NBA DFS slate like we had Friday (at least on DraftKings) and a ton of news that happened after lock, sometimes it’s nice to see just four games on the schedule. That’s where we find ourselves this evening and seven of the eight teams are on the second leg of a back-to-back, […]

NBA DFS Strategy and Picks for Friday (1/5)
Friday features an 11-game DFS slate around the NBA with a couple of repeat matchups from a few days ago. It is a bit of an interesting slate, as DraftKings includes all 11 games on their main slate, while FanDuel is only incorporating eight on their main slate. As always, be sure to follow the […]

Welcome to Hoops with Noops! We have a jam-packed slate of games Friday, with a few potential playoff previews, but a lot of injury report and fatigue nonsense we’ve come to expect from regular season NBA basketball.

5 Stats to Know: NBA DFS January 5
DraftKings and FanDuel took a very different approach to the Friday NBA DFS slate, because DK has an 11-game slate while FD has only eight. I’m not exactly sure why FD chopped off games for the main since there are 14 games total on Friday. Even DK has just started to pretend the West Coast […]

After a wild Wednesday in the NBA, we can kind of take a breath on Thursday with just two games. We have the Spurs facing the Bucks and the Warriors taking on the Nuggets. DraftKings and FanDuel didn’t give us much of a break on pricing for this slate, so lineup construction could be a […]

Welcome to Hoops with Noops! TNT Thursdays have finally returned! I assume all my complaining in this piece made its way up to Adam Silver, who then rectified the situation.

A very light two-game NBA slate awaits us Thursday, making for a challenging DFS slate. The Bucks are 9.5-point road favorites at San Antonio, a team they defeated 132-119 at home in December. The Nuggets are also road favorites, entering Golden State with a 3.5-point projected advantage. 1. Giannis’ Versatility We are approaching the […]

NBA DFS Strategy and Picks for Wednesday (1/3)
We aren’t going to get the late NBA DFS hammers Wednesday on either DK or FD, as the sites decided not to include the 10 p.m. ET games, so that changes the strategy of how we’re going to build our lineups. We’re still learning about some players in new roles after the Knicks and Raptors […]

5 Stats to Know: NBA DFS January 3
Both DraftKings and FanDuel are back to pretending that the West Coast doesn’t exist, because neither platform included the NBA’s 10 p.m. ET games Wednesday, chopping the day’s DFS slate down to 10 games. It was an interesting experiment, but now it’s getting a bit annoying to not have the hammers in the late window […]

NBA DFS Strategy and Picks for Tuesday (1/2)
Both DraftKings and FanDuel elected to include Tuesday’s late NBA games on the six-game DFS slate, and by the looks of things, those games are quite popular. The Warriors might be the chalkiest team on the slate since they have a new starting lineup and it may be wise to lean into some of it […]
