Kemba Walker (PG, CHA) - Big Money Play on DraftKings 1/25

Kemba Walker (at SAC, $8,600) Walker is the recent owner of two 70+ fantasy point performances in four games, one of which exceeded 80 fantasy points (52 points, nine rebounds, eight assists). The Charlotte Hornets visit the Sacramento Kings, in a matchup between two teams that score a lot of points and play at a […]

Boban Marjanovic (C, SA) - Value Play on DraftKings 1/25

Boban Marjanovic (vs GS, $3,500) Tim Duncan will miss Monday's premium matchup between the Spurs and the Warriors due to soreness in his right knee. Boris Diaw will likely sneak into the starting lineup, but Marjanovic should see a boost in minutes. When Duncan last missed action on Thursday against the Phoenix Suns, Marjanovic posted a double-double, […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice - NBA DFS Lineup Picks for 1/25/16

Monday's card is packed with a lot of intriguing matchups, one consisting of the league's two best teams; a potential preview of this season's Western Conference finals. The Sacramento Kings are also set to take the court, which usually means an abundance of points and stats spread across the board. Tonight's lineup features two of the […]

Chris Bosh (PF, MIA) and Justise Winslow (SF, MIA) - Stack on DraftKings 1/25

Chris Bosh (at CHI, $7,700) The Bulls simply aren't good at defending forwards this season, and have allowed plenty of fantasy points to power forwards as well as small forwards. Bosh has not been wowing fantasy owners with explosive performances of late, but the veteran has been consistent all season, and recently, posting over 30 and […]

Week 17 Fantasy Hockey Buys and Sells: Tavares, Perron, Reimer and Klingberg

The NHL season is past the midway point.  We are more than halfway home, fantasy owners! With the All-Star weekend around the corner, this is as good of a time as any for fantasy owners to assess their roster, figure out their needs and their strengths, and trade some of their depth to upgrade the […]

NBA Under-Performing Stars: Center Edition

Centers don't just grow on trees. In a game dominated more and more by small ball and the idea of the "scoring guard," the best centers in the league are more coveted than ever. Even if your center is struggling, you should generally hold on to him. It's just wise to do so because there aren't […]

Kevin Durant (SF, OKC) - DraftKings Big Money Play on 1/24/16

Kevin Durant (at BK, $9,500) Durant is by far the best player at the three-spot on Sunday. He has scored 20 or more points in 30 straight games played. Yes, 30 straight. Durant is always a solid play in DFS, for all formats, and continuously spreads stats across the board. He has a great matchup against the Brooklyn […]

DeMar DeRozan (SG, TOR) and Terrence Ross (SG, TOR) - DraftKings Stack on 1/24/16

DeMar DeRozan (vs LAC, $8,300) DeRozan has been on fire the past three games, averaging a little over 32 points, 47.7 fantasy points, five assists, and four rebounds in that span. DeRozan is the second best option at the two-guard on Sunday, and is almost $2,000 cheaper than James Harden. With the exception of Harden's insane 80 fantasy […]

DeAndre Jordan (C, LAC) - Solid DraftKings Play on 1/24/16

DeAndre Jordan (at TOR, $7,200) Jordan's price continues to surprisingly plummet, but that just makes him an even more appealing pick at center. Jordan has posted a double-double in ten of his last 11 games and has grabbed double-digit rebounds in 21 of 23. He's the top choice on Sunday at his position. Jordan has also been […]

Jason Terry (PG, HOU) and Corey Brewer (SF, HOU) - DraftKings Stack on 1/24/16

Jason Terry (vs DAL, $3,200) Terry got the starting nod Friday night against the Milwaukee Bucks, and exceeded his average fantasy points per game with six points, three steals, two assists, and a rebound. Now understandably, these are numbers that Russell Westbrook can post in about two minutes, but Terry is over $7,000 cheaper than the Energizer-Bunny point guard […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice - NBA DFS Lineup Picks for 1/24/16

With the snow finally coming to a blistering halt, hopefully, no games are set to be postponed on Sunday's short slate. Four games are on the card.

NBA Trade Deadline: Players to Buy Low, Part 1

It’s now less than 30 days from the NBA trade deadline (Feb. 18th, 3pm) and likely even closer to your fantasy trade deadline. A lot can change both in the NBA and on your fantasy team overnight, and even relatively small moves in the NBA can launch guys into fantasy relevance (for example, Isaiah Thomas […]

DeMarcus Cousins (C, SAC) - No Brainer FanDuel Play on 1/23/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs IND, $11,100 ANALYSIS: DeMarcus Cousins should be automatic at this point. He has over 50 fantasy points in seven of his last nine games. In those games, he has over 60 fantasy points three times. He gets a great matchup against an injured Indiana Pacers squad tonight. Myles Turner has been playing a […]

Jabari Parker (PF, MIL) - FanDuel Value Play

MATCHUP/VALUE: at NO, $5,100 ANALYSIS: Jabari Parker has really stepped up for the Milwaukee Bucks, and I expect him to continue to play well tonight against the New Orleans Pelicans. The Pelicans are going to score rather easily against the Bucks, as they are not a great offensive squad, but the Bucks should score rather […]

LeBron James (SF/PF, CLE) - Strong FanDuel Play on 1/23/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs CHI, $9,600 ANALYSIS: The Cleveland Cavaliers broke an NBA record for firing their head coach. They were the best team in the league to ever fire their coach mid-season, so LeBron James really has something to prove tonight. He gets a tough matchup against the Chicago Bulls, but he should really come to […]

Alex Len (C, PHO) - NBA Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 21% of Yahoo! Leagues ANALYSIS: Suns center Alex Len was used sporadically for much of the first half of the month before missing three games with a hand injury. Understandably, he was jettisoned by many fantasy owners. However, since returning from his hand injury, he's gained new […]

Louis Williams (SG, LAL) - FanDuel 50/50 Play on 1/23/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: at POR, $5,800 ANALYSIS: Speaking of great upside, Lou Williams is playing against the Portland Trailblazers tonight. He has not broken the 30 fantasy points mark in four straight games, but prior to that, he had over 30 fantasy points in three straight games. In one of those games, against the Oklahoma City Thunder, […]

Damian Lillard (PG, POR) - FanDuel Matchup Play on 1/23/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs LAL, $8,700 ANALYSIS: Damian Lillard has struggled over his last couple of games, but he should be able to turn things around tonight against the Los Angeles Lakers. Last game, he posted over 30 fantasy points, but prior to that, he scored 25.4 and 17.4 fantasy points against the Washington Wizards and Philadelphia […]

NBA Trade Deadline: Centers Who Are Better off Traded

Lebron James (SF, CLE) - DraftKings Big Money Play on 1/23/16

LeBron James (vs CHI, $9,700) LeBron James hasn’t been playing all that well over the last 10 days, but he is coming off a huge game against the Clippers. He has flashed tremendous upside, as he has the ability to triple double on any given night, and he gets a great matchup against a weak Chicago defense […]

Dennis Schroder (PG, ATL) - DraftKings Value Play on 1/23/16

Dennis Schroder (at PHO, $4,900) Teague and Schroder are splitting minutes in Atlanta, and Schroder is cheaper, which is why he gets the write up. This game could also be a quick blowout, and the Hawks will likely give Schroder more minutes if that’s the case. He’s been playing well over the last 10 days, as he’s averaging […]

DeMarcus Cousins (PF, SAC) DraftKings Big Money Play on 1/23/16

DeMarcus Cousins (vs IND, $10,700) Boogie is on a roll right now, and there’s no stopping him. Over the last 10 days, he’s averaging 29.4 points, 14.6 rebounds, 3.2 assists, 1.2 blocks, and 1.2 steals per game. He get a great matchup against the Pacers, who he dominated for 51.5 fantasy points earlier this season. Cousins plays big […]

Wille Cauley-Stein (C, SAC) - DraftKings Value Play on 1/23/16

Willie Cauley-Stein (vs IND, $4,300) There are a few great elite options tonight, which means you’re going to have to find a few value players, and WCS fits the bill. He recently returned from injury, which is why his price is so low, but he has played 29 and 30 minutes in his last two games, and […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice - NBA DFS Lineup Picks for 1/23/16

The NBA really needs to do something about their injury report policy. I understand a player being doubtful and still playing, but Dwyane Wade was ruled out last night before warming up and playing just before the game started. Making a stricter injury report would help DFS players tremendously. In this article, I will be […]
