Trey Lyles (PF, UTA) - FanDuel Value Play on 1/16/16
MATCHUP/VALUE: vs LAL, $3,900 ANALYSIS: Trey Lyles is playing big minutes right now for the Utah Jazz, and he gets a great matchup tonight against the Los Angeles Lakers. The Lakers are one of the worst defensive teams in the league, and Lyles has been producing consistently. In three of his last five games, he […]
Gordon Hayward (SF, UTA) - Matchup Play on FanDuel for 1/14/16
MATCHUP/VALUE: vs SAC, $7,300 ANALYSIS: I told you Gordon Hayward would be here every week he plays on a Thursday. Tonight he has a great matchup against the defenseless Sacramento Kings, and is a great play at $7,300, especially for GPP's. Although I think he's a safe play in most formats, he gets a boost in […]
Jeff Withey (C, UTA) - Cheap FanDuel Play on 1/7/16
MATCHUP/VALUE: at HOU, $4,700 ANALYSIS: Last, but certainly not least, my favorite value play of the night. I don't understand how Jeff Withey's price is still below $5,000. He has AVERAGED 29 FD points over his last six contests, which is a baseline of 6x value. He'll probably be very highly owned tonight, and its always […]
Gordon Hayward (SF, UTA) - Upside Play on FanDuel for 1/7/16
MATCHUP/VALUE: at HOU, $7,600 ANALYSIS: If Gordon Hayward is playing on Thursday night, expect to see him in this article. He's been a little inconsistent of late, but I really like his match up against the Rockets, who boast the fifth worst defense in the NBA. With Alec Burks, Derrick Favors, and Rudy Gobert out, […]
Rodney Hood (SG, UTA) - DraftKings Value Play on 1/4/16
MATCHUP/VALUE: vs HOU, $5,500 ANALYSIS: Hood is coming off a season best 47.5 fantasy points, in his season high 32 point performance against the Grizzlies Saturday. It was the second straight game Hood broke out for 40+ fantasy points, and now faces a very generous defensive team in the Houston Rockets. Not saying that Hood […]
Rodney Hood (SG, UTA) - DraftKings Tournament Play on 1/2/16
MATCHUP/VALUE: vs MEM, $5,100 ANALYSIS: Hood is another beneficiary of the Alec Burks injury, and he has been taking shots in the teens over his last few games. He’s a good scorer, but he flashed the ability to add peripheral stats, as well, as he scored 41.75 fantasy points in his last game. The Grizzlies […]
Trey Burke (PG, UTA) - DraftKings Value Play on 1/2/16
MATCHUP/VALUE: vs MEM, $4,600 ANALYSIS: Burke has been forced into big minutes and a bigger offensive role with Alec Burks injured. Burke has an extremely high usage rate, and he’s now playing minutes in the mid-30s. Burke gets a good matchup against the Grizzlies, who he has already dominated for 33.3 fantasy points earlier this […]
Jeff Withey (C, UTA) - Value Play on FanDuel for 12/31
MATCHUP/VALUE: vs POR, $3,900 ANALYSIS: This pick completely hinges on Derrick Favors injury, so keep a close eye on his status before lineups lock. Withey is coming off of two 30 FD point nights, averaging a double double over those games. At $3,900, anything above 20 FD points is a premium, and I think he has the […]
Gordon Hayward (SF, UTA) - Solid FanDuel Play on 12/31
MATCHUP/VALUE: vs POR, $7,600 ANALYSIS: Gordon Hayward is always one of my favorite DFS plays. He's had a bit of a down year by his standards, but has been heating up recently while the Jazz are dealing with multiple injuries. Make sure to keep an eye on Derrick Favors status heading into tonight's game. If he sits, […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in all leagues OWNED: 59% of Yahoo! Fantasy Basketball Leagues ANALYSIS: Rudy Gobert, the Jazz’s French Center has recently begun to turn a few heads with insane production after the injury to Enes Kanter. Rudy Gobert is currently owned in just almost 60% of leagues but is very capable of producing Top-80 value. As of late, […]
Rudy Gobert (C, UTA) - NBA Waiver Wire pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in all leagues OWNED: 48% of Yahoo! Fantasy Basketball Leagues ANALYSIS: Gobert has been on a tear since January began, especially once he was given the starting nod following Enes Kanter's ankle injury on the 3rd. Averaging just under 10 points per game, Gobert has begun to polish off what was a very raw […]
