DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/3/19): NBA DFS Lineups

Eight games total today but DraftKings only has four games on the main slate. Unfortunately, they choose the wrong four games because all the early games contain a majority of the upside.

Hassan Whiteside Ruled Out For Saturday's Game

Miami Heat center Hassan Whiteside will miss Saturday’s contest against the Brooklyn Nets due to a hip injury.

Kelly Olynyk is Questionable on Saturday

Miami Heat forward Kelly Olynyk (ankle) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Brooklyn Nets.

Hassan Whiteside Out Against Golden State

Miami Heat center Hassan Whiteside (hip) will sit out Wednesday night against the Golden State Warriors.
