Fantasy Basketball - Category Studs: Efficiency Artists

The NBA regular season is just around the corner and you're probably getting ready for your drafts by reading articles like these!

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (10/12/22): Preseason NBA DFS Lineups

Well, folks, I believe it was Boyz 2 Men who said it best back in 1992 - I am afraid "we've come to the end of the road." We have an eight-game slate tonight with several teams wrapping up their preseason schedule. Tomorrow, there are only two games and then Friday there are NINE, and […]


DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (10/11/22): Preseason NBA DFS Lineups

These slates are never all that easy to solve and we can see them get turned on their head rather quickly. Yesterday, after I finished writing in the morning we saw Joel Embiid ruled out, and then Miami decide to rest all of their core players, too. Just make sure if you haven't already you […]


Five Players On Our Do Not Draft List: 2022-2023 Fantasy Basketball

A lot of content focuses on who you should draft and where, but the goal of this article is to convince you to absolutely avoid these players in your upcoming drafts at all costs. Do not draft them. Like not even if they drop like stones in the draft and you think "okay, this is […]

Another week of NFL football is upon us as we welcome back Thursday Night Football tonight. As the owner of both Melvin Gordon III and Nyheim Hines, I have more interest in this game than many, but if you're a true football fan, you're probably just happy to be watching a game again. I have […]

After a small 3-game slate yesterday, we have our biggest slate of the preseason this week today as there are seven NBA games slated to be played tonight.

Five Teams To Target In 2022-2023 Fantasy Basketball

A lot of content focuses exclusively on which players you should draft (or not draft) and when. But what about specific teams? Should we target certain teams more heavily than others? While you don't have to stack up players from one team onto your teams (and in fact, it's probably a bad idea to put […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (10/5/22): Preseason NBA DFS Lineups

Only some modest profits last night, as I made some educated guesses that didn't pan out. The Blazers did play Damian Lillard and their starters quite a bit even on a back-to-back, while the Pelicans had a quick hook on Zion and CJ McCollum. We had the Knicks guys pegged correctly, but Utah was a […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (10/4/22): Preseason NBA DFS Lineups

So I messed around and got a triple-double last night when I took down the $1 20-max on DraftKings, which was pretty cool. I only played 15 lineups but was tempted to throw 20 in when the contest overlayed by nearly 1,000 entries. My winning lineup had a bunch of plays in it from this […]
