Marcin Gortat (C, WAS) - Strong FanDuel Play on 2/11/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: at MIL, $6,900 ANALYSIS: Had to end with the Polish Hammer. Although I think he's a great play tonight, I expect Marcin Gortat's ownership level to be through the roof. Although I'm sure there will be a chunk of DFS'ers risking it with Enes Kanter or Steven Adams tonight, I just don't see the upside, and […]

Jared Dudley (PF, WAS) - FanDuel Matchup Play on 2/11/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: at MIL, $4,600 ANALYSIS: Ok so hear me out. I know his DFS numbers are generally underwhelming, but Jared Dudley has been pretty consistently hitting 4x value, and has the revenge game factor tonight. What's the revenge game factor you ask? Players always play better against their former teams. Now I don't have any numbers to […]

Ryan Anderson (SF, NO) - Cheap FanDuel Play on 2/11/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: at OKC, $5,900 ANALYSIS: With Tyreke Evans out, someone has to score for New Orleans other than Anthony Davis, and that man is Ryan Anderson. I'm a little worried about Durant guarding him for stretches of games where OKC goes small, but hopefully they won't need too, as this should be an absolute blow out. And […]

Greg Monroe (C, MIL) - Value Play on DraftKings 2/11

Greg Monroe (vs WAS, $7,000) So, what exactly is Jason Kidd doing? Greg Monroe was relegated to the bench last game for some odd reason, presumably to “shake things up,” and although it kind of worked out with a win, it took a lot of court time from usual starter Monroe to will the Bucks […]

Ryan Anderson (PF, NO) - Value Play on DraftKings 2/11

Ryan Anderson (at OKC, $5,700) Anderson is in a nice spot against the Thunder. He should see some nice run with the second unit and after only playing 24 minutes on Wednesday, he should be as fresh as produce for an up-tempo game. OKC typically does not blow teams out because the bench unit is […]

Khris Middleton (SG, MIL) - FanDuel Matchup Play on 2/11/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs WAS, $7,300 ANALYSIS: So normally I would do just about everything possible to avoid rostering players from this game tonight, but on a two game slate that's impossible. Although the spread looks to be around 210 points, both of these teams are really hard to predict on a night to night basis with the […]

Russell Westbrook (PG, OKC) and Kevin Durant (SF, OKC) - Stack on DraftKings 2/11

Russell Westbrook (vs NOP, $11,200) This just in: Westbrook is a stud. And if you’re looking for a reason to not roster him, I cannot give one. The Thunder don’t really blow teams out, especially when they’re favored heavily. I imagine he will be the most heavily owned player on the board across the industry. […]

Norris Cole (PG, NO) - Undervalued FanDuel Play on 2/11/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs NOP, $5,100 ANALYSIS: With Tyreke Evens out until the all star break, and Jrue Holiday on a 25ish minutes restriction, Norris Cole will be the biggest DFS beneficiary of the next few games.  Cole has shown that he can produce serious fantasy numbers when given starters minutes. He has scored over 30 FD points in […]

Karl-Anthony Towns (C, MIN) - FanDuel Tournament Play on 2/10/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs TOR, $8,700 ANALYSIS: There are actually quite a few centers I'm intrigued with this evening, but KAT is going to be my guy in tournament play. He's been playing excellent, well-rounded basketball and has a few 50+ and nearly-50 fantasy point games in the past few weeks because of it. With so many […]

Myles Turner (PF, IND) - Strong FanDuel Play on 2/10/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs CHA, $5,700 ANALYSIS: With his recent play, Turner is looking like he could be the steal of the lottery in the 2015 NBA Draft, save for that Kristaps Porzingis guy. Over his last 10 games, he's exceeded value nine times, and by an average of more than seven points per contest. Even better, […]

Stanley Johnson (SF, DET) - Underused FanDuel Play on 2/10/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs DEN, $4,900 ANALYSIS: After a few hot games, Johnson threw up a dud his last time out, which I'm hoping keeps his ownership percentage below 20% this evening. The thing I love about StanJohn is that even on nights his fantasy production isn't great, he never cheats himself of opportunity. In other words, […]

E'Twaun Moore (SG, CHI) - FanDuel Upside Play on 2/10/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs ATL, $4,200 ANALYSIS: I'm pretty underwhelmed by the options at shooting guard tonight, especially the pricier options, and with that in mind I'm looking for cheaper options with solid minutes and opportunity. Mr. Moore fits that description this evening, and he's currently playing some of the best basketball of his career. He's exceeded […]

Cory Joseph (PG, TOR) - Cheap FanDuel Play on 2/10/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: at MIN, $4,000 ANALYSIS: If you need salary relief at the point, Joseph is your guy on Wednesday. He draws a good matchup against the Timberwolves and since he comes off the bench, he likely wont have to deal with the pesky hands and defense of Ricky Rubio. Like Irving, Joseph too has exceeded […]

Kyrie Irving (PG, CLE) - FanDuel Matchup Play on 2/10/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs LAL, $7,600 ANALYSIS: There's a lot to like about Kyrie Irving this evening, and if his recent play is indicative of anything, he's in for a big time performance. Over the Cavaliers' last 10 games, Irving has exceeded value 80% of the time, and by an average of over seven points per contest. […]

Brook Lopez (C, BK) - Smart DraftKings Play on 2/10/16

Brook Lopez (vs MEM, $7,500) Marc Gasol has recently been diagnosed with a broken foot, and the Grizzlies don’t have anyone else who is big enough to play center for an entire game. Brook Lopez is one of the best centers in the NBA, and it’s tough for anyone to guard him, let alone someone who isn’t […]

Markieff Morris (PF, PHO) - DraftKings Value Play on 2/10/16

Markieff Morris (vs GS, $6,500) Morris’ price is on the rise, but he’s still entirely too cheap for his new role with the Suns. Since the Suns changed their head coach, Morris is averaging 21.0 points, 7.5 rebounds, 4.8 assists, 1.5 blocks, and 1.0 steal in 34.5 minutes per game. He has only struggled in one of […]

Jamal Crawford (SG, LAC) - DraftKings Value Play on 2/10/16

Jamal Crawford (at BOS, $5,300) Jamal Crawford’s price is finally around where it should be, but Crawford should still nearly be a lock for value tonight. Over the last 10 days, he’s averaging 20.8 points, 1.8 rebounds, 2.8 assists, and 1.2 steals per game. He gets most of his fantasy production from scoring, and he’s averaging over […]

Carmelo Anthony (SF, NY) - Big Money Play on FanDuel 2/9

Carmelo Anthony (vs. WAS) - $8,900 The Wizards push the pace, meaning more points for opposing teams. They have a glaring weakness in their defense against wing men. It's very likely that Melo will touch the ball every possession in order to expose that weakness. It hurts to spend up here when there is a […]

Deron Williams (PG, DAL) - Value Play on FanDuel 2/9

Deron Williams (vs. UTA) - $5,600 Last games' 38-minute 42.9-FDP performance is probably not in Williams' future for Tuesday's game. However, it was a good sign to see him play well in a tough matchup. The Jazz should be slightly easier, and at Williams' price we can settle for 30 FDP and still be in […]

Draymond Green (PF, GS) and Andrew Bogut (C, GS) - Stack on FanDuel 2/9

Draymond Green (vs. HOU) - $9,100 Here's another potential spot to pay up. While a blowout seems imminent, Green against this defense seems too good to pass up. The Rockets have struggled against power forwards all year, and a very dynamic scorer should have his way in a fast paced game. Let's hope for four […]

Gorgui Dieng (C, MIN) - Strong FanDuel Play on 2/8/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs NOR, $6,100 ANALYSIS: Gorgui Dieng exploded in his last game, which was against the Chicago Bulls. He posted over 50 fantasy points in 41 minutes, scoring 24 points and grabbing 13 rebounds. He also added seven assists, almost completing the triple-double. He has been very solid of recent, and he just keeps getting […]

Tristan Thompson (PF, CLE) - FanDuel Value Play on 2/8/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs SAC, $4,600 ANALYSIS: Kevin Love is questionable tonight with a bruised left thigh. If Love sits out, Thompson is not really going to see more minutes, but he will see better production. The Sacramento Kings are terrible against opposing power forwards, so Thompson should be able to produce. His price tag is very […]

LeBron James (SF, CLE) - Safe FanDuel Play on 2/8/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs SAC, $10,200 ANALYSIS: LeBron James has been playing great over his last few games. The Sacramento Kings are not going to be able to slow him down, but this game could also get out of hand. DeMarcus Cousins and Rajon Rondo are more likely to keep the game close than Archie Goodwin and […]

Archie Goodwin (PG, PHO) - Cheap FanDuel Play on 2/8/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs OKC, $5,200 ANALYSIS: Archie Goodwin has been solid over his last three games, and he should continue to play well tonight against the Oklahoma City Thunder. As I previously mentioned, this game has the ability to get out of hand, but Goodwin will play full minutes regardless. The Suns are very used to […]

Russell Westbrook (PG, OKC) - FanDuel Tournament Play on 2/8/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: at PHO, $11,100 ANALYSIS: Russell Westbrook's price tag is now ridiculously high, so he is no longer a great 50/50 option, but he is still great in tournaments. In his last six games, he has over 50 fantasy points in five of them. The Phoenix Suns are the worst team in the league against […]

Spencer Hawes (C, CHA) - Value Play on DraftKings 2/8

Spencer Hawes (vs CHI, $4,500) With Al Jefferson continuing to miss time, and Cody Zeller's inconsistent play, Spencer Hawes will have plenty of opportunities to produce against the Bulls. Chicago has given up the second most fantasy points to centers this season. Hawes is an affordable option, $400 cheaper than Zeller, and has been sprinkling plenty […]

Markieff Morris (PF, PHO) - Value Play on DraftKings 2/8

Markieff Morris (vs OKC, $6,200) Morris is good for over 30 minutes of court time a night and is still at a manageable price. Morris is one of few options on the Phoenix Suns that can break out, but despite his inconsistency in that department, he is still more than capable of tallying plenty of stats […]

J.R. Smith (SG, CLE) and LeBron James (SF, CLE) - Stack on DraftKings 2/8

J.R. Smith (vs SAC, $5,500) The Kings have also given up the second most fantasy points to shooting guards this season. Basically, Sacramento can't defend guards. Smith is an affordable option that likes to shoot and shoot often. When hot, he can light up the scoreboard. Smith is also a steals threat, as he's posted […]

DeMarcus Cousins (C, SAC) - Elite FanDuel Play on 2/7/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: at BOS, $11,100 ANALYSIS: Did you expect anyone else? Look, you didn’t really pay up at other spots so why not spend your fake cheese on the big hoss. Who is going to slow him down?

Kristaps Porzingis (PF, NY) - Strong FanDuel Play on 2/7/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs DEN, $6,400 ANALYSIS: After dudding up for most of the last two weeks, Porzin-God came back with authority with a nice 17 point, 10 rebound performance against the Grizzlies. Word out of New York is that Melo will most likely play, which may jerk Porzingis’ ownership numbers around. It’s a no-brainer that Porzingis […]
