Kevin Durant (SF, OKC) - DraftKings Big Money Play on 1/8/16

Kevin Durant (at LAL, $10,300) In his last game, Durant was listed as out, but he ended up starting and scoring 56.75 fantasy points. He also scored 55.25 fantasy points in his game before that, and Durant is catching fire. He has dominated the Lakers in limited minutes this season, and it wouldn’t be surprising to see […]

Devin Booker (SG, PHO) and T.J. Warren (SF, PHO) - DraftKings Stack on 1/8/16

Devin Booker (vs MIA, $4,700) Booker is locked into big minutes for the Suns, and he is an extremely talented player. He has scored 35+ fantasy points in two of his last three games, and he has great upside. Booker is a lights out shooter, but he’s also athletic enough to add peripheral stats. It’s very […]

Welcome to the first week of Playoffs edition of Daily Fantasy Football DraftKings targets. An introduction is not really all that necessary, as the title of this DFS article pretty much sums up what is going to be discussed. It's important to identify players with good matchups, but we also want to look at their DraftKings […]

NFL Wild Card Week Daily Divide DFS Lineup Picks: Russell Wilson, Kirk Cousins, Giovani Bernard

Daily Divide: Wild Card Playoff Weekend If you don't already know, Playoff DFS is super fun. Short slates can offer less choices and sometimes dicier options, but people who make good choices still put themselves in a good position to win. (Plus, football is always more fun with DFS involved.) As usual, Nathan and Matt will each […]

NFL Wild Card Week DraftKings DFS Lineup Sleepers: Eddie Lacy, Brian Hoyer, Markus Wheaton

Playoffs!? Yes Coach Mora, playoffs. We've made it to the Wild Card round of the NFL playoffs, and even with an eight team slate you better believe we've got DFS games to play. Let's peek at the Vegas lines for these four games. The highest projected point total is the 46 spot for the Pittsburgh-Cincinnati […]

Robin Lopez (C, NY) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 66% of Yahoo Leagues ANALYSIS: Robin Lopez has been stepping up for the Knicks lately and fantasy owners need to take notice. On Wednesday night, Lopez continues his streak of games with a rejection (getting to do the Mutombo finger wag twice in this game), but also […]

Devin Booker (SG, PHO) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 31% of Yahoo! Leagues ANALYSIS: With Eric Bledsoe out for the season, Devin Booker has gotten more playing time for the Suns and the Kentucky product is coming along nicely. On Wednesday the 19 year old posted his first career double-double, scoring 17 points and nabbing 10 rebounds […]

Shane Larkin (PG, BKN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add if you need a PG OWNED IN: 27% of Yahoo! Leagues ANALYSIS: With Jarrett Jack out for the season due to a torn ACL, the Nets have had to turn to Shane Larkin and Donald Sloan to play the point. Neither has been great so far, but Larkin is the player you […]

T.J. Warren (SF, PHX) - Value Play on FanDuel 1/8

T.J. Warren (vs MIA, $4,500) T.J. Warren, after only playing 21 minutes against the Los Angeles Lakers and posting only one fantasy point (yes, really), rebounded for 27.6 fantasy points in 37 minutes of action. He should continue to play big minutes for the Phoenix Suns. The Miami Heat are not a great defensive team, […]

Mario Chalmers (PG, MEM) - Value Play on FanDuel 1/8

Mario Chalmers (vs DEN, $4,900)  Mario Chalmers blew up last game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Memphis Grizzlies, with Mike Conley out of the lineup due to a sore left Achilles, decided to roll with Courtney Lee at the point guard position, but that was quickly abandoned. Chalmers controlled the game for a majority […]

Russell Westbrook (PG, OKC) - Big Money Play on FanDuel 1/8

Russell Westbrook (at LAL, $10,600) It is my civic duty to recommend Russell Westbrook every single time he plays the Los Angeles Lakers. The Lakers are an uptempo team that hates to play defense. Quite honestly, this game is going to get out of hand quick, but Westbrook could realistically hit value in only three […]

DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice - NBA DFS Lineup Picks for 1/8/16

Jusuf Nurkic (C, DEN) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 50% of Yahoo! Leagues ANALYSIS: So, after coming back from a knee procedure, it appears that Jusuf Nurkic's 15-minute cap is going to be raised according to Chris Dempsey of the Denver Post. This is good new for his value, although not so much for his teammate […]

Marco Belinelli (SG/SF, SAC) - NBA Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Short-Term Add in All Leagues OWNED IN: 26% of Yahoo! Leagues ANALYSIS: Former San Antonio Spur Marco Belinelli has been thrust into action for the Kings with the injuries to Rajon Rondo, Omri Casspi, and (for a couple days) Ben McLemore. He is making the most of it. Over his last four games, […]

Jeff Withey (C, UTA) - Cheap FanDuel Play on 1/7/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: at HOU, $4,700 ANALYSIS: Last, but certainly not least, my favorite value play of the night. I don't understand how Jeff Withey's price is still below $5,000. He has AVERAGED 29 FD points over his last six contests, which is a baseline of 6x value. He'll probably be very highly owned tonight, and its always […]

Taj Gibson (PF, CHI) - Value Play on FanDuel on 1/7/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs BOS, $5,400 ANALYSIS: Taj Gibson is the only sub $8,000 big man I really feel comfortable rostering tonight. With Joakim Noah still out nursing a shoulder injury, Gibson has had a much larger role within the Bulls front court rotation. Last game against Milwaukee he tallied a double- double (11 points, 14 rebounds) with […]

Paul Millsap (PF, ATL) - Strong FanDuel Play on 1/7/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: at PHI, $8,500 ANALYSIS: With all the money I saved on my guards, I am not hesitating to spend up on Paul Millsap. I don't really like any of the mid price options for power forward, and Millsap always has the potential to be the nights high scorer. In four of his last five […]

Gordon Hayward (SF, UTA) - Upside Play on FanDuel for 1/7/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: at HOU, $7,600 ANALYSIS: If Gordon Hayward is playing on Thursday night, expect to see him in this article.  He's been a little inconsistent of late, but I really like his match up against the Rockets, who boast the fifth worst defense in the NBA. With Alec Burks, Derrick Favors, and Rudy Gobert out, […]

Evan Turner (SF, BOS) - Discounted FanDuel Play on 1/7/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: at CHI, $5,700 ANALYSIS: With Avery Bradley out, the Celtics will be relying on Evan Turner a little bit more over the next few games. Turner is a bit of a Swiss army knife when it comes to fantasy,  having the ability to score, rebound, and dish out assists. With the extra minutes I think […]

Marco Belinelli (SG, SAC) - Value Play on DraftKings 1/7

Marco Belinelli (vs LAL, $4,400) The Sacramento Kings injury list looks almost like a full roster right now, so they will clearly need some of their bench players to pick up the slack and score some points. With an average of 30.9 DKFPPG over his last four games, Belinelli is one of those guys that […]

Jimmy Butler (SG, CHI) - Strong FanDuel Play on 1/7/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: vs BOS, $8,500 ANALYSIS: Now a lot of people might prefer to spend a little extra and nab James Harden, but because of the discount and the matchup, I prefer Butler here. Straight up Butler has been on fire recently. Over his last four games hes totaled at least 40 FD points, and I'm optimistic […]

Taj Gibson (PF, CHI) and Pau Gasol (C, CHI) - Stack on DraftKings 1/7

Taj Gibson (vs BOS, $5,900) Jimmy Butler has been getting all the highlights, but Gibson has been quietly effective since his insertion in the starting lineup. Against the Celtics, he will face a front court that struggles against players that ball like bullies, which is Gibson in a nutshell. Butler has been playing at a […]

Kent Bazemore (SG, ATL) - Matchup Play on FanDuel on 1/7/16

MATCHUP/VALUE: at PHI, $5,700 ANALYSIS: This is the PERFECT match up for Kent Bazemore. Yes, the 76ers are the perfect match up for a lot of NBA players, but I think Bazemore in particular will flourish tonight. The 76ers are the sixth fastest paced team in the league, and should induce a lot of running and […]

Paul Millsap (PF, ATL) - Big Money Play on DraftKings 1/7

Paul Millsap (at PHI, $8,300) For a little bit more salary relief, look at the second-highest priced option on the board. At 2k cheaper, I’ll gladly continue to utilize the tried, tested and true strategy of picking on the Philadelphia front court. The lowly Sixers give up a ton of offense and defensive boards to […]
