DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (4/20/19): NBA DFS Lineups
For some of you, tomorrow is Easter. For others, today is Christmas. Either way, enjoy the day with some all-day basketball starting at 1:00pm EST. The first two games are going to be the most competitive and the games will slowly become more predictable as the day goes on. The Pistons cannot handle the depth […]

With the significantly smaller slates, making winning lineups are going to be tougher than they have been all season. Each teams rotation has shrunk, and players are going to find consistent value more scarce as the playoffs move on. Immediate backups like Patty Mills are always going to be considered safe options, but don't expect […]

If you missed last night's games, I highly recommend taking the time to watch. It's quite hilarious when narratives from regular and previous season bleed into the playoffs. Truthfully, I believed that the Raptors were one of the best teams and along with the Bucks, would make it to the Conference Finals, but there's a […]

It's about time the playoffs started. These last two months have been entertaining, but dreadful from a competitive standpoint. Teams absolutely pumped the brakes in March and April, which makes sense, but also made it annoying to track games that started true upward trends or were just flukes. Hopefully you are still playing and truth […]

WELP, this is the end my friends. After a long-season we are finally at the end of the regular season. Finally, I can take a break from these daily artic...oh wait, so I have to keep doing these through playoffs? Until DraftKings is done running games. Hooray. It will be hard to beat last night's […]

This is it. The last big slate of the season and unfortunately we don't even get the full schedule. We still get eight games which is plenty, but it doesn't give us the satisfaction of cashing out in a late-season, 14-game slate. The Denver Nuggets have already announced some of their starters are going to […]

Only two games today so there's not much that needs to be said. Without breaking it down you have two choices. Realistically, you have one choice. The Nets versus Bucks is the only game really worth targeting because of the security behind it. Jimmy Butler is considered questionable for right now, but any change in […]

Only three games today which means this article will be on the shorter end. I'll go through each game quickly and run through some options you have to play and use the remaining five spots to go over some value picks. I almost said you didn't need to play Steph Curry tonight, but with the […]

This is one of the last day's of the season and the third biggest slate before playoffs. There a 13-game gem on Friday I will not be covering, but I'll be fully involved in the 14-game whopper on Sunday. Tonight there's 12 games meaning you will most likely hear one or two names you've never […]

We continue the end of the season grind with a decent NBA Sunday schedule. There are only four games on the main slate with two early games. The Mavericks travel to play the Thunder, while the Pelicans host the Lakers. Out of every game, the Pelicans/Lakers contest will have the most DFS-relevance. Unfortunately, unless you […]

Not too many options tonight and although the early slate of games might be more interesting than the later grouping, there is still plenty of flexibility when it comes to composing a roster. If you are playing in the early slate, James Harden, Spencer Dinwiddie, Joe Harris, and Aron Baynes are your go-to guys. All […]

Not the conventional introduction, but since each team only has a few games left, we need to address Hassan Whiteside. What exactly is the plan going forward with him because I'm lost when it comes to playing him. When his price was closer to $6,000 it was easier to just accept fading him and hoping […]

There are just five games on tonight's slate which is underwhelming, but after last nights grouping of games it only seems right. Six of the nine games were within 10 points, not including the Spurs/Charlotte game, which the Hornets won in overtime to keep their playoff hopes alive. The end of the regular season has […]

The past few nights have been the perfect indicator that NBA DFS is at a very weird point right now. Prediction seem random and trying to guess which players are going to play and which aren't is just downright annoying. Yes, the best teams will rest their best players, but as of right now, the […]

With eight games total today, DraftKings only has seven on the main slate. Of those seven games, only two really stick out as "should be good" games. This late in the season, some players will rest for no reason other than load management, and that means more in-game parity. Teams like the Mavericks will be […]

At this point it's all or nothing if you are streaming players. You need production and you need it now. For those unlucky few still in championship contention, but need streamers in order to pull out a win, no need to worry. Sure, this part of the season consists of way too many "load management" […]

There are six games on tonight's slate, with three teams playing on the second night of a back-to-back. The Mavericks, Jazz, and Wizards all played yesterday, but only Washington went into overtime. The Jazz made light work of the Knicks and the only Mavericks player to play over 30 minutes was Justin Jackson. The Kings/Mavericks […]

Since you have plenty of options tonight, don't feel the need to stack one specific game. The Heat and Spurs matchup seems to have the most upside because of value, but I'll talk more about that later. With Kyle Lowry missing some time, Fred Vanvleet instantly becomes a must-start prospect. The minutes will be there […]

I'll tell you right now, if you are looking for a big name player who is just going to play well through playoffs...you might be a little late for that train. BUT, in this article there are plenty of names that you can stream for the time being. None of these options carry a ton […]

With just four games on the main slate, expect most lineups today to consist of the same players. I'l help add in some diversity but just know that there will be four or five players you will need to own tonight in order to cash out, so that's what I'll be doing with my five […]

With seven games on DraftKings main slate, all are fairly good games in terms of DFS. All should be decently high-scoring, but do not shy away from anyone in the Pelicans-Suns game. With the caliber of players in that contest, it's fairly safe to play Julius Randle, Devin Booker, Kelly Oubre Jr., amongst others, but […]

With a six game slate that's stacked at the small forward position, you'll need to pick and choose the right matchup and hope it works out. With LeBron James playing an Eastern Conference contender, Kawhi Leonard playing against the team many thought he would playing for this season, and Paul George heading back to Indiana […]

There are six games on the slate with one game you clearly need to stack. The Warriors face off against the Rockets and while I think Steve Kerr holds back his rotations just slightly, it's still safe to run with most of the Warriors tonight. James Harden needs to be rostered, but DeMarcus Cousins and […]

With seven games on the slate, all I can really think about is why NBA players keep going at Serge Ibaka like he won't punch them in the face. Regardless, with a seven game slate tonight, there are two games that pop out as one's you should consider stacking. In the Mavericks/Spurs game, target the […]
Jake King-Finnen 6 years agoReturns From Injuries and Kelly Olynyk Three's
The season is quickly and sadly coming to a close. There have been so many narratives to follow and players seem to be just now coming into their own. For example, Kelly Olynyk jumped from top-150 value over the past month, to top-25 over the past two weeks. While his role is more than sustainable, […]

With six games on the slate it's easy to see which are the games that you'll be targeting. With the Hawks on the second night of a back-to-back, not to mention being the worst defense versus multiple positions, it opens up the floor for the Pelicans to have some of today's best value. Outside of […]

We have a bad slate of games. I won't deny it. None of these games look like they will be fun to watch. Luckily, that's one of the reasons I love and watch basketball on a daily basis. There's always the possibility that the Timberwolves and Wizards have one of the best games of the […]

With a wimpy two-game slate tonight, there won't be much diversity in these lineups. I'll include the higher priced targets in the intro and stack the more in depth picks with value plays and all that good stuff. Since this is a weird slate tonight, you need to be aware of some of the positional, […]

There are 10 games on tonight's DraftKings slate, so make sure you find the right amount of flexibility for your lineup. You will need value and superstars both, so while it's basically necessary that you play Kemba Walker, Blake Griffin, Ben Simmons, Buddy Hield, and Tobias Harris, there is plenty of value that will allow […]

By now, if you are still hunting the waiver wire, that means one thing. Either you are in the playoffs and just securing the best players, or you need production to get you into the playoffs. Either way, I am going to find you those trend-starting players that should be good from here till the […]
