DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/23/18): NBA DFS Lineups

What a crazy night that was last night. My top tournament lineup scored 398 DraftKings points, which would be more than enough to take the top spot on most nights. Unfortunately, I was still 162 spots away from that big win. Regardless, it was a good night overall for me, so let's get on a... Read More

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (1/11/18): NBA DFS Lineups

While we do have four games on Thursday, one of them is being played in London and will happen in the early afternoon. Therefore, we get three injury-riddled games to analyze. Oh joy.

DraftKings NBA DFS (1/2/18): Lineup Picks, Sleepers and Advice

It's officially 2018, and I wish I could say that Tuesday's NBA DFS slate will be a little more full than Monday's, but we only have five games. Even still, five is better than three or two (which we have coming up on Thursday... ugh), so we can't complain. Let's help you build that bankroll up... Read More

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (12/21/17): NBA DFS Advice

In theory, a five-game Thursday slate should be reason for celebration! However, with tighter DraftKings pricing, a handful of injuries, and seven of the ten teams on a back-to-back, I feel oddly unsatified as I tool through the player pool. Not to mention all of the duds last night that leave us with an uneasy... Read More

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (12/19/17): NBA DFS Advice

If you plan on playing NBA DFS on Christmas Day, this slate will serve as great practice for you.

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (12/14/17)

If this is your first year playing NBA DFS, I am truly sorry. It seems that injury news (or lack thereof) is crazier than ever these days.

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (12/12/17)

If you avoided the carnage that was the NBA DFS slate last night, I am truly, truly jealous of you. Not only did I have a ton of exposure to both Draymond Green and Danilo Gallinari, but I also had both of them in my cash game lineup. Talk about flushing money down the drain.... Read More

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (12/7/17): NBA DFS Advice

Unlike Tuesday, this short slate on Thursday night has a lot of promise! For starters, there are no back-to-backs. But wait, there's more...

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Picks (12/5/17): NBA DFS Advice

Happy Tuesday, everyone! We had a wild 11-game slate last night, and if that was overwhelming for you, then Tuesday's three-game thriller should be right up your alley.
