NBA DFS Game-by-Game Breakdown (1/12)
We have six games Thursday in the NBA and a relatively clean DFS slate for injuries, at least at the top of the pricing grid. That doesn’t mean that there aren’t going to be some values to consider and the end goal of this is trying to fit Luka Doncic against the Los Angeles Lakers, […]

We already have some big names ruled out Wednesday for the eight-game NBA DFS slate, and there are likely to be more, which could reshape the landscape. There are two games with spreads over 13 points and another late-night hammer that could carry us over the top, so let’s dive into things and lay out […]

NBA Best Bets of the Day (1/11)
This was a strange week for NBA scheduling. Wednesday’s eight-game slate is actually on the smaller side for a typical Wednesday. We saw a larger slate Tuesday, which may be the reason. I found one edge in our FTN Bets NBA Model for a total and two early edges in the FTN Bets Player Prop Model for […]

It’s a bigger NBA DFS slate than normal for a Tuesday, and we’ve got some good matchups. There are three questionable players at the very top of the salary grid that could have a big effect on this slate as a whole, and two such games are in the late window, which makes for an […]

This is a big slate for a Tuesday in the NBA. It is also a messy one with so many superstars listed as questionable or out. Devin Booker, Joel Embiid, Chris Paul, Luka Doncic, Paul George and Bam Adebayo are all on one of those lists. So are solid secondary pieces like Kelly Oubre, Tyler […]

The NBA season rolls on, and there are only six games tonight because of the College Football Playoff National Championship.

Monday night brings us six games with a few injury-related challenges as always, and two of these six games have a spread into the double-digits. That’s always something to keep in mind, although predicting a blowout is typically a fool’s errand. Let’s get to work and start laying out the slate. New Orleans Pelicans […]
