Kawhi Leonard (SF, SA) - Big Money Play on DraftKings 1/2

Kawhi Leonard (vs HOU, $8,500) Leonard has been playing well on a per minute basis recently, as he’s averaging 19.8 points, 6.0 rebounds, 3.5 assists, and 2.5 steals in 33.5 minutes per game. He gets a great matchup against the Rockets tonight, who have been the worst team in the NBA against small forwards this […]


Ish Smith (PG, PHI) - Great DraftKings Play on 1/2/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: at LAC, $7,200 ANALYSIS: Smith’s price continues to rise, and he continues to be a bit underpriced. There is not reason to avoid him right now. He is playing heavy minutes for the Sixers, and he clearly is the leader of their offense. He has the ability to potentially contribute in all five categories, […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice - NBA DFS Lineup Picks for 1/2/16

Am I the only one wondering how Nerlens Noel is so much better with Ish Smith? It really doesn't make any sense to me, but my fantasy teams are loving it! In this article, I will be providing you with Daily NBA picks for DraftKings for 1/2/16. The picks will range from some of the […]


Nikola Vucevic (C, ORL) - Top DraftKings Play on 1/1/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: at WAS, $7,900 ANALYSIS: Vucevic has continuously been returning value on a nightly basis, and that will likely continue tonight. Over the last 10 days, he’s averaging 23.4 points, 8.4 rebounds, and 4.2 assists per game. His price is on the rise, but he still hasn’t priced himself out. He gets a tough matchup […]


Bobby Portis (PF, CHI) - Risk/Reward DraftKings Play on 1/1/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs NY, $3,900 ANALYSIS: The Bulls are finally giving Portis minutes, as he has played 26 and 27 minutes in his last two games. He has scored 27.25 and 25.25 fantasy points in those games, and he’ll likely play around 25 minutes again tonight. He gets a good matchup against the Knicks, who have […]


Nerlens Noel (PF, PHI) - DraftKings Upside Play for 1/1/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: at LAL, $6,300 ANALYSIS: Noel has been playing exceptionally well since the Sixers traded for Ish Smith, as he has scored 41.25, 39.0, and 37.25 fantasy points in those three games. He has also started at center in each of those three games, which is the position he has been much more successful at […]


Jerami Grant (SF, PHI) - DraftKings Tournament Option for 1/1/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: at LAL, $4,400 ANALYSIS: The Sixers may choose to have Jahlil Okafor come off the bench for the time being, as Noel plays extremely well with Ish Smith. If Okafor starts the game on the bench, Grant will likely draw the start at power forward. He’s coming off a huge game, in which he […]


Carmelo Anthony (SF, NYK) - Elite DraftKings Option on 1/1/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: at CHI, $8,300 ANALYSIS: Melo has been playing well recently, as he’s averaging 23.5 points, 8.0 rebounds, and 4.5 assists per game over the last 10 days. He gets a great matchup against the Bulls, who have been one of the worst defenses in the NBA against small forwards. He’s also a significantly better […]


Garrett Temple (SG, WAS) - DraftKings Tournament Play on 1/1/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs ORL, $4,700 ANALYSIS: Temple is a bit of a confusing prospect, as he’s playing huge minutes, but he isn’t scoring fantasy points. He has flashed 40 fantasy point upside, but he has also scored under 15 fantasy points in each of his last two games. His price is a bit high, but the […]


DeMar DeRozan (SG, TOR) - Elite DraftKings Play on 1/1/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs CHA, $8,000 ANALYSIS: DeRozan has been on fire recently, as he has scored 35+ fantasy points in 10 consecutive games. Over the last 10 days, he’s averaging 25.8 points, 5.3 rebounds, 6.3 assists, and 1.0 steal per game. He’s a huge part of the Raptors offense, and Kyle Lowry recently told the media […]


Ish Smith (PG, PHI) - DraftKings Value Play on 1/1/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: at LAL, $6,500 ANALYSIS: Smith’s price is on the rise, but it’s still entirely too cheap. He has scored 42.75 and 45.25 fantasy points in his last two games, and he’ll continue to be the main focus of the Sixers offense tonight. He gets a great matchup against the Lakers, who have been one […]


John Wall (PG, WAS) - Great DraftKings Play for 1/1/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs ORL, $9,700 ANALYSIS: Wall has been heating up a bit recently, and he gets a great matchup against the Magic tonight. The Magic love turning games into shootouts, and Wall is the main focus of the Wizards offense. He has double doubled in seven consecutive games, and he’s also adding stats in each […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice - NBA DFS Lineup Picks for 1/1/16

Happy New Year, everyone! In this article, I will be providing you with Daily NBA picks for DraftKings for 1/1/16. The picks will range from some of the elite players, to mid-priced options, and value plays. Without wasting anymore time, let's get down to it!Featured Promo: Get any DFS Premium Bundle for for 30% off […]


Chris Paul (PG, LAC) - DraftKings Big Money Play for 12/30

Chris Paul (at CHA, $9,200) Paul continues to work his way into this article, and that’s because DraftKings has not appropriately increased his price. He gets a somewhat tough matchup against the Hornets tonight, but Paul is matchup proof without Blake Griffin in the lineup. Over the last 10 days, he’s averaging 22.7 points, 3.3 rebounds, 9.0 assists, and […]


Ish Smith (PG, PHI) - DraftKings Value Play for 12/30

Ish Smith (at SAC, $5,600) If you remember back when Smith was playing big minutes for the Pelicans earlier this season, his price was closer to $7,000. That’s where it should be tonight, as he’s coming off a huge game, in which he recorded 22 points, 3 rebounds, 11 assists, and 2 steals for the Sixers. He’s […]


DeMarcus Cousins (PF, SAC) and Omri Casspi (SF, SAC) - DraftKings Stack for 12/30

DeMarcus Cousins (vs PHI, $10,000) Cousins gets a matchup against the Sixers tonight, and they don’t have anyone that will be able to slow him down. Check before the game starts to make sure he didn’t get suspended because of his actions the other night. If he’s starting, he makes a great option. Before his last game, […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice - NBA DFS Lineup Picks for 12/30/15

The NBA has a lot of exciting young talent, but with the recent injury to Eric Bledsoe, the youngest player in the NBA, Devin Booker, will be playing heavy minutes. Booker is only 19 years old, which is younger than yours truly. That, everyone, is a bitter sweet feeling. In this article, I will be […]


Hassan Whiteside (C, MIA) - Risk/Reward DraftKings Play on 12/26

MATCHUP/VALUE: at ORL, $7,200 ANALYSIS: This pick comes with a bit of risk because of the way Whiteside acted on Christmas. He was extremely upset about being benched at the end of the game to say the least, and his actions resulted in his benching in overtime, as well. Earlier in the season, the Heat […]


Kevin Love (PF, CLE) - Safe DraftKings Play 12/26

MATCHUP/VALUE: at POR, $7,900 ANALYSIS: If everyone would quickly remember back to Love’s days in Minnesota and how great of a rebounder he is, you know why I love him tonight. I continue to take great rebounders against Portland, who has struggled rebounding the ball this season. Love is coming off a huge game, in […]


Jae Crowder (SF, BOS) - DraftKings Value Play 12/26

MATCHUP/VALUE: at DET, $5,900 ANALYSIS: Crowder is playing with a great amount of confidence right now, and it’s showing in the box score. Over the last three games, he’s averaging 20.3 points and 10.7 rebounds per game. He has been playing more power forward with Amir Johnson hurt, and he’ll make a great play in […]


Nicolas Batum (SF, CHA) - Strong DraftKings Tournament Option 12/26

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs MEM, $7,200 ANALYSIS: Batum is another player who has flashed tremendous upside, but he has also flashed a bit of risk. In his last four games, he has scored 35+ fantasy points twice and less than 21 fantasy points twice. He gets a good matchup against the Grizzlies, who have really struggled against […]


Kyle Korver (SG, ATL) - Cheap Tournament Play for 12/26

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs NY, $4,200 ANALYSIS: Korver has been playing fairly well heading into the Christmas break, as he was averaging 10.0 points, 4.2 rebounds, and 3.2 assists per game over the last 10 days. He gets a matchup against the Knicks tonight, who have struggled on defense at times this season. Korver has flashed great […]


Eric Bledsoe (SG, PHO) - Solid DraftKing Play on 12/26

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs PHI, $8,300 ANALYSIS: Bledsoe was on fire, but he has really cooled off over the last couple of games. He had a short break because of Christmas, and he gets a great matchup against the Sixers tonight. Ish Smith will likely receive minutes tonight at point guard for the Sixers, and he very […]


Ish Smith (PG, PHI) - Value Play on DraftKings on 12/26

MATCHUP/VALUE: @ PHO, $4,500 ANALYSIS: Smith comes with a ton of risk tonight because his minutes are far from guaranteed. He does know the Sixers offense, as he played with them last season, and he should be able to steal minutes at point guard. He flashed big play ability with the Pelicans earlier this season, […]


DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice - NBA DFS Lineup Picks for 12/26/15

Did anyone have that big winning lineup on Christmas? Even if you didn't, I hope everyone had a fun and safe holiday, but we're back to the grind of the NBA now! In this article, I will be providing you with Daily NBA picks for DraftKings for 12/26/15. The picks will range from some of […]


FanDuel Picks for Daily Fantasy Football Week 16: DFS Lineup Advice and Sleepers

There is a bit of a short slate this week because I am only writing for the Sunday/Monday games, which leaves out four teams (SD, OAK, WSH, PHI). It's quickly becoming crunch time in the NFL, and you're going to have to do research on who is starting and sitting with teams clinching the playoffs. […]


Chris Paul (PG, LAC) and J.J. Redick (SG, LAC) - Stack on DraftKings 12/25

Chris Paul (at LAL, $8,600) Paul is finally healthy, and his price hasn’t quite caught up to his production yet. Over the last 10 days, Paul is averaging 21.0 points, 3.8 rebounds, 10.0 assists, and 3.2 steals per game. He gets a great matchup against a fast paced Lakers team, who have really struggled on […]


LeBron James (SF, CLE) - Big Money Play on DraftKings 12/25

LeBron James (at GS, $10,000) I only like the top three options at small forward tonight, and I have James ranked just a bit higher than Durant for the same price. James gets a matchup against the Warriors, and the Cavs will need James to take over the game to keep this competitive. He’s arguably […]


Taj Gibson (PF, CHI) - Value Play on DraftKings 12/25

Taj Gibson (at OKC, $4,400) Joakim Noah is dealing with an injury, and he’s set to miss a few weeks, which means Gibson will see an extended role. He played 33 minutes against the Nets in his last game, and nearly double doubled. He’s likely see heavy minutes again today against the Thunder, and his […]
