DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (12/5/18): NBA DFS Lineups
This is going to be one of our most competitive nights this season. Ten games on the slate and because each one has so much potential, I'll briefly go over each game starting with the Cavaliers and Warriors. This game is pretty clearly the one to skip out on. You could go Steph Curry or […]

With six games total and four on DraftKings main slate, we don't really have many choices. Bigs are far and few between tonight so make sure you find those one or two value plays and combine it with certain consistency. There are not that many overpriced superstars so look for Damian Lillard and Joel Embiid […]

I hope you guys are enjoying this season as much as I am. After being seven weeks in, we can really see how well our drafting paid off. Many of you are scrambling to help fills gaps left by injuries while others are just looking for anything to help stop the bleeding. Over the past […]

Out of the six games being played today, half the teams are on the second half of a back-to-back. The Detroit Pistons, Brooklyn Nets, Washington Wizards, Chicago Bulls, Houston Rockets, and Boston Celtics will all be playing again tonight, but none were in that close of games yesterday. Not that fatigue won't be a major […]

I know you all are already jumping at this three-game slate tonight with only the Clippers playing two nights in a row. The Clippers didn't shoot particularly well against the Suns Wednesday night, but they took them out of the game early, and most of the starters outside from Tobias Harris didn't play a full […]

A fantastic 10-game slate tonight with Pelicans-Wizards dominating the early point predictions. That game has stack-ability all over the place so make sure you are looking for updates or any potential injury alerts. Kemba Walker, Ben Simmons, James Harden, LaMarcus Aldridge, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Paul George, C.J. McCollum, and Devin Booker are just a few players […]
Jake King-Finnen 6 years agoNBA Waiver Wire: Standard League Adds (Week 6)
Now that we are in week six, the big problem for most players is the lack of bigs available on the wire. In most of my leagues, the wire is dry of new centers to see coming, meaning you might have to look for a player like Taj Gibson or Mike Muscala to fill any […]
Jake King-Finnen 6 years agoDraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (11/25/18): NBA DFS Lineups
The slate is pretty staggered today so I'll be sure to include at least one pick from the early games. I don't like to focus on anything other than the main slate, but some picks just needed to be exposed. This is one of the tastier slates I've seen this season and almost every game […]
Jake King-Finnen 6 years agoDraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (11/24/18): NBA DFS Lineups
After yesterdays helping of NBA basketball, we get a more relaxed 7-game slate Saturday. Most of the teams playing today are on the second half a back-to-back, so make sure when you decide to fade someone, you have reason. Players like Russell Westbrook will be faded because he is a high-energy player who is coming […]

A massive 13-game slate and if I wasn't lazy, I'd check to see if this was the biggest slate this season. The 76ers and Pelicans are set to have the highest scoring game and the value is absolutely there. Ben Simmons and Jimmy Butler almost need to be started, along with Damian Lillard having plenty […]

Sorry for the late jump on the article, but I'll make this quick and as informative as possible. There is a lot of value tonight and I'll get to that, but we need to focus on the superstars. There's a common theme of top-tier players facing stingy defenses. Luckily this does nothing more than scare […]

The four games lined up for Sunday's main slate have actually got some intrigue. Instead of thinking of some filler, I can just go over each game outlining players that won't be listed below. The Lakers-Heat game will revolve around LeBron James and his ability to incorporate his teammates early, allowing them to carry the […]
Jake King-Finnen 6 years agoDraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (11/17/18): NBA DFS Lineups
A nine game slate with value located all over the place has me way too excited, way too early. Plenty of teams are on the second night of a back-to-back, which means certain players will be seeing a few extra minutes, while other starters will be forced to carry a heavier workload. The top-tier of […]

We are no into week 5 and like most our fantasy teams, NBA teams are still figuring out the direction they plan to head as we hit the grueling part of the regular season. Younger players that have yet to adapt to the conditioning of the season will slowly start to fall off, opening the […]

There are only three games tonight and while that usually seems like a bummer, it's still something we can work with. Sometimes having more games and the extra options are a nice bonus that alludes for very creative lineups that can cash out. With smaller slates, we need to be precise and have to make […]
Jake King-Finnen 6 years agoDraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (11/14/18): NBA DFS Lineups
An 11-game slate is just what we needed after last night's measly 3-game slate. The options seem almost endless, but there are specific matchups that need to be exposed. The Wizards are still struggling across the board, the Magic are trending up but lack defensive firepower, and the Lakers-Trail Blazers is going to be the […]
Jake King-Finnen 6 years agoNBA Waiver Wire: Standard League Adds (Week 4)
We are four weeks into the NBA fantasy season and we already have our first crop of names you might not have heard of that will definitely be relevant. Unfortunately, injuries are starting to pile up and rotations that worked early in the year are quickly being scrapped. Teams like the New York Knicks seem […]
Jake King-Finnen 6 years agoDraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (11/10/18): NBA DFS Lineups
There are 10 games total today, but we are only going to focus on the main, 8-game slate. Tonight's games are not that appealing from an outside perspective and all but one are inter-conference games. This is good for competition and it gives us a good idea of what teams to really target today. Immediately, […]

There are only four games tonight and every day we are seeing progress with each team. The start to every season is difficult because of random rotations, coaching changes and chemistry issues, so by the end of this month, every team will be in a more concrete direction, rather than still trying to figure out […]
Jake King-Finnen 6 years agoDraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (11/7/18): NBA DFS Lineups
A massive upgrade from last night's measly slate with 10 games available. DFS lineups tonight will once again be revolving around the Lakers and their lack of defense. With the point totals for each game the Lakers play nearing 235-240, they find themselves in a very susceptible position and all the Timberwolves will have serious […]
Jake King-Finnen 6 years agoDraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (11/4/18): NBA DFS Lineups
There are seven total games today with only six on DraftKings' main slate, but enough with un-intriguing intro sentences. There are plenty of quality games being played tonight and the Trail Blazers - Timberwolves and Lakers - Raptors will be the games to watch and stack. LeBron needs to be played in most lineups and […]
Jake King-Finnen 6 years agoDraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (11/3/18): NBA DFS Lineups
There are seven games tonight and none of them are all that appealing right off the bat, although the Lakers-Trail Blazers game has my early attention along with Hornets-Cavaliers. Both will be high-scoring affairs, but only the Lakers and Trail Blazers offer serious, consistent value. The Celtics-Pacers game is enticing, but it's hard to trust […]
Jake King-Finnen 6 years agoNBA Waiver Wire: Standard League Adds (Week 3)
This early in the season, minor injuries are opening up minutes for reserves and many of them are setting a solid examples of why they need to be picked up. Elie Okobo, Josh Okogie, Nemanja Bjelica, Garrett Temple and Noah Vonleh are all younger players trending upwards, while veterans like P.J. Tucker, Danny Green and […]

With only six games on the slate tonight, we have to make sure we are precise with our picks. With both Anthony Davis and Russell Westbrook available, the choice is yours, but I'm confidently rolling with Westbrook to avoid any late-scratches from the Pelicans organization. It is fairly easy to afford both tonight, so expect […]

With seven games on the slate it's not hard to find options to play. There is a lack of consistent value due to the insecurity of team's rotations this early in the season, but for most players, we can see the direction they are trending. There are a decent number of superstars playing tonight, but […]
Jake King-Finnen 6 years agoDraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (10/28/18): NBA DFS Lineups
There are four games total tomorrow and with only three on the main slate, the lineups might get a little repetitive. There are only a few options available altogether and when it comes to the top-tier players, the only viable option is Russell Westbrook. If he has one of his nights, he needs to be […]
Jake King-Finnen 6 years agoDraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (10/27/18): NBA DFS Lineups
There are nine games on the slate and the Lakers are, once again, the team to stack. With multiple other superstars available, you have to go with one of the big four options tonight. Giannis Antetokounmpo has his work cut out for him in Orlando but it could lead to an early blowout, Anthony Davis […]

With week one behind us, our teams are starting to fall into place and our weak spots and areas of improvement are becoming more evident. Instead of trading away everything and the kitchen sink, the waiver wire can be extremely useful given the proper insight. Finding a player that is primed to break out can […]

Only four games tonight, but they contain have some of the more dynamic offenses in the league. Despite the Lakers being the only team on the second night of a back-to-back, LeBron James is still a quality play. It would be the first time he would be playing in the Staples Center with a win […]

This is going to be one of our bigger slates this early in the season, so it'll be a little more risky to stack, but the Pheonix Suns vs. Los Angeles Lakers game is still the one to target. There are plenty of options to really flex your money with, but if you are spending […]
