Shaun Evans NBA DFS picks for RIVAL Fantasy Bingo contests for November 3rd through November 4th. Sign up for RIVAL fantasy and use his NBA DFS Fantasy Bingo picks to win money.
Welcome 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
Stephen Curry vs. Oklahoma City Thunder
Stephen Curry has come out blazing so far this season. In five games, he is already averaging 31 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 3.8 assists per game with a field goal percentage of 54.3%. Now Curry will be in another good spot to continue his consistent play. With the Oklahoma City Thunder averaging 104.5 possessions per game, they'll be forcing the Golden State Warriors to play slightly faster with their 102.7 possessions per game. Asking Curry to play faster is always a good thing. On top of that, the Thunder are allowing opposing point guards to average 23.2 points, 8.1 assists, and 5.5 rebounds per game. The more the merrier for Stephen Curry's stat line to help fill up those Bingo boards.
Ben Simmons vs. Chicago Bulls
Ben Simmons is nowhere near the prettiest or most appealing play on any DFS slate. However, he fills up a stat sheet and when playing Fantasy Bingo on Rival, that's what you need. He has now logged 10 or more rebounds in all four games so far this season. He has recorded nine assists in game one of the season, eight in games two and three but ended up with just five in his most recent game. Simmons also recorded a double-double versus the Dallas Mavericks and Charlotte Hornets. He may not score many points but he makes it up in other categories and without having teammates like Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving, he can do more.
Luka Doncic vs. Denver Nuggets
Luka Doncic has started the season out on fire, averaging almost a triple-double. Doncic is currently averaging 33.8 points, 10.5 rebounds, and 9.8 assists per game with a field goal percentage of 51.1%. Coming off of what may seem like a low-productive game with 18 points, 10 assists, and seven rebounds, he now gets the Denver Nuggets. The Nuggets currently averaged the second least possessions per game with 101.7. This gives Doncic and the Dallas Mavericks a slight uptick in pace for themselves, hoping to stay in front of the Nuggets. Being without Kyrie Irving, who is currently questionable for tonight, Luka Doncic will get a boost in his usage and have more opportunities to help fill out the Bingo cards.
