NBA Daily Fantasy Lineup Picks - FanDuel DFS Basketball Advice for 10/30/15

Daily fantasy basketball is one of the most predictable fantasy sports that there is.

Avoid Rashad Jennings, Shane Vereen and Andre Williams Until Further Notice

The Giants backfield has been giving fantasy owners migraines all season long.
