Shaun Evans NBA DFS picks for RIVAL Fantasy Bingo contests for November 15th through November 16th. Sign up for RIVAL fantasy and use his NBA DFS Fantasy Bingo picks to win money.
Hello there, RotoBallers, and welcome back to our new series covering RIVAL Fantasy Bingo picks for the NBA Season! We will be covering how to play and the strategies to win.
Fantasy Bingo is a spin on the classic game Bingo but the goal is to match achievements, not numbers. You will build a DFS lineup for the weekly games to unlock the achievements and fill in those squares. You can win by getting five in a row, all four corners, or an entire card blackout.
The prize pool for the weekly slate is distributed among all of the winning cards. They are broken down in two ways. 56% of the prize pool to cards that have five in a row – vertically, horizontally, and diagonally. 44% of the prize pool is for cards that just cover the four corners. Also, the prize pool gets larger as more bingo cards are entered. You can have up to 100 max cards all with different lineups created. Check here for the updated rules and scoring.

RIVAL Fantasy Bingo Strategy
When it comes to Fantasy Bingo and NBA, the strategy will be different than the NFL Strategy. Stacking would go out the window unless the slate is two to three games. Targeting high usage players though is the same. Players who can fill multiple categories on the stat sheet like Nikola Jokic, Luka Doncic, Giannis Antetokounmpo, and Ben Simmons (surprisingly). On top of that, if players are averaging double-doubles or triple-doubles at a good rate, you'll want to get a piece of that pie as the Bingo Cards may call for it.
Targeting defensive players who are logging more than two blocks or steals per game will be needed also. Those appear at a consistent rate on the Bingo Cards. Players like Chet Holmgren, Victor Wembanyama, Anthony Davis, and Joel Embiid excel at blocks and are averaging more than two per game. For steals, players like Marcus Smart, Donovan Mitchell, and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander are already recording 2.5 steals a game.
Filling every single category of the stat sheet will be needed as you construct your lineups. Spreading it out between key offensive and defensive players as there is no salary cap for you to be restricted by. Look for games with high totals, teams that play at a fast pace, and players that may get boosts from teammates ruled out due to injuries. You are able to make your lineups throughout the night but waiting for injury news to rule in will be your best route to go before the first game tips off.

RIVAL Fantasy Bingo Picks
De'Aaron Fox vs. Los Angeles Lakers
De'Aaron Fox returned to action last Friday after missing five games due to an ankle injury. Fox logged 35 minutes and recorded 28 points with six assists, two rebounds, and one steal. Now the Sacramento Kings get to face the Los Angeles Lakers, a good matchup for Fox. They allow opposing point guards to average 21 points, seven rebounds, and six assists per game. With a usage rate of 32% through the last five games played, he is averaging 27 points, six rebounds, and almost four rebounds per game. Both teams play at a fast-paced and when there are more opportunities for De'Aaron Fox, he fills up the stat sheet.
Scottie Barnes vs. Milwaukee Bucks
Scottie Barnes may have had a decline in performance in recent games but now has the perfect bounce-back spot. Averaging almost a double-double with 20 points and 9.7 rebounds, Barnes has started this year off hot. He holds a usage rate of 24.5% this season. He also becomes a good fit for the bingo cards as he is averaging 1.8 blocks and 1.8 steals per game. On the opposite end of the court, the Bucks are currently giving up 25.6 points, nine rebounds, and five assists to opposing small forwards. Load up on Scottie Barnes.
Joel Embiid vs. Boston Celtics
Joel Embiid is trying to go back-to-back for the MVP Award and has been dominating. Currently averaging 33.1 points, 11.7 rebounds, and 5.7 assists per game, Embiid holds a 37.3 usage rate. That makes it hard to pass up on him. With just two losses on the season and coming off of a close game with the Indiana Pacers, except the 76ers to ball out tonight versus Boston. With the possibility of Kristaps Porzingis being out tonight, Embiid has had success versus Al Horford. He averaged 26.3 points, 13.3 rebounds, and 4.4 assists in 15 games versus him. Whoever is guarding Embiid tonight will have a tough time on their hands and he'll be the center to go to.
