The only game tonight is Game 3 of the Eastern Conference Finals between the Hawks and Bucks. The Hawks surprised nearly everyone by waltzing into Milwaukee and taking Game 1.

WNBA Daily Fantasy Lineup Picks (6/27/21): WNBA DFS Advice for DraftKings and FanDuel

Happy June 27th -- aka DJ Screw Day. That has nothing to do with this WNBA slate, but I just had to acknowledge it. Three games on today's slate. The Sky face the Sun, then a potential Finals preview between the Storm and Aces is on deck, followed by the Sparks facing the Mercury. In […]

Erik Jones Not a Good Idea for DFS at Pocono

Erik Jones started 22nd on Saturday at Pocono and that is just where he ended after 130 laps. It has been a bit of a theme lately. Jones has not enjoyed much positive place differential other than Sonoma (+7) and Austin (+13). The Richard Petty Motorsports driver briefly broke into the top 15 while others […]

Austin Dillon Not Expected Much on Sunday at Pocono

Austin Dillon starts from the 21st position on Sunday for the 140-lap race. Things looked promising when he had some speed and clean air. He was ninth after the first stage then had a variety of issues which left him 25th after the second stage. Dillon never truly could recover after that. He struggled in […]

Chris Buescher Starts from Pole on Sunday at Pocono

How fast does Chris Buescher drop from the pole is the main question. However, could he lead a few laps before he does? The Roush Fenway Racing driver kept falling behind from about the midway point of the race on. Every time he caught up a bit, Buescher just seemed to miss the groove or […]

Michael McDowell Could Lead Some More Laps at Pocono

Michael McDowell had a decent run going at Pocono on Saturday but just could not keep the groove during the longer runs. McDowell was in the top-15 for most of the race though and even led five laps when the contenders pitted. There were times when his car definitely had clean air and it showed. […]

Martin Truex Jr. Needs to Find Groove at Pocono

It is odd to see Martin Truex Jr. struggle as he has over the past several weeks. Pocono seemed to offer refuge and when he was seventh after Stage 2, there was hope. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver lost track position in droves after that, however. He even fell out of the top 20 briefly […]

Christopher Bell Hopes for Better Result at Pocono on Sunday

Christopher Bell never truly recovered after winding up at the rear of the field. He got into the top 15 briefly late in the race but could not sustain track position. Bell slid back to 17th as his Joe Gibbs Racing car just did not have enough speed in the end. At least on Sunday, […]

Aric Almirola a Big Question Mark on Sunday at Pocono

Aric Almirola had things set up well enough. He had a nice result in Nashville and started 11th on Saturday at Pocono. Naturally, the Stewart-Haas Racing driver then proceeds to fall out of the top 15 and ends up 16th. That has been how 2021 has mostly gone for Almirola. Being near the rear after […]

Ricky Stenhouse Jr. Dangerous Choice at Pocono

The one problem that Ricky Stenhouse Jr. has is definitely disciplined driving. If it is not a pit violation, there is a restart violation. That grounded his run just enough on Saturday to drop him out of the top ten. He finished a solid 15th but started seventh. The good thing is that the JTG […]

Bubba Wallace Starts Seventh on Sunday at Pocono, Less DFS Upside

Bubba Wallace weathered some adversity after he plummeted from fourth at one point during the second stage. The 23XI Racing driver appeared consistent enough as he stayed in the top 15 for the most part. If Wallace can avoid costly mistakes like restart or pit speed violations, the No. 23 may have a chance to […]

Daniel Suarez Could Lurk Close to Top Ten on Sunday at Pocono

Daniel Suarez enjoyed a solid first stage and was in the top ten for a good while during stage number two. However, the TrackHouse Racing driver fell back just a bit but did not panic. The No. 99 car was able to gradually slide back up near the top ten by the end of the […]

Chase Elliott Easily Expects Top Ten Result at Pocono on Sunday

Chase Elliott was visibly agitated on Saturday. Though he improved from 29th to 12th, his Hendrick Motorsports Racing car never led a lap or came close. After the second stage, it appeared Elliott was in position but just could not capitalize on anything. He was briefly in the top ten but lost the groove twice […]

Tyler Reddick Has Some Upside on Sunday at Pocono

Tyler Reddick looked solid most of the race on Saturday at Pocono. It was the final third of the race where he saw his greatest move position-wise. Reddick got into the top ten for a bit as well before settling for 11th. The Richard Childress Racing driver turned in a bunch of mid-54 second laps […]

Brad Keselowski May Meander Around Top Ten or So on Sunday at Pocono

Brad Keselowski never led any laps on Saturday and did not really contend near the top of the field much either. He was tenth after stage number two and that is exactly where he stayed after the final lap. The bad thing in a sense is that Keselowski will start 11th on Sunday. He did […]

Kevin Harvick Could Surprise and Might Win Sunday at Pocono

There were definitely times on Saturday where it looked like Kevin Harvick was viewing the 130-lap race as a dress rehearsal for Sunday's 140-lap version. He dropped positions every so often as the Stewart Haas Racing driver tried to find grooves, good air, etc. In general, Harvick was bobbing around the track looking for ways […]

Joey Logano Will Hang in Contention on Sunday at Pocono

Joey Logano led the second-most laps on Saturday at the 2.5-mile track. His 18 laps led was a little bit of a surprise. In general, the fact that the laps lead was so spread out was as well. The Team Penske driver just could not find the groove in the final laps and had to […]

Kurt Busch Go For Broke Style Good For Value Sunday at Pocono

Kurt Busch vaulted himself into the NASCAR playoff mix over the last month and continued to string together solid results with a sixth on Saturday at Pocono. Busch has enjoyed good results here in the past as the Chip Ganassi Racing driver not only led some laps but even battled younger brother Kyle on a […]

Ryan Blaney Drives Pocono Like a Race Course, On DFS Radar Sunday.

The inverted start gives Ryan Blaney a chance for place differential potential that is just not possible usually. He will start 16th in the second Pocono race on Sunday as the Stewart Haas Racing driver nabbed a top-five result on Saturday. Blaney finished the second stage in fifth and that is ultimately where he stayed. […]

Denny Hamlin Keeps Points Lead, Likely Contender Sunday at Pocono

The Kyle Larson blown tire and subsequent wall slam saved Denny Hamlin's point lead for now but also bumped Hamlin up to fourth on Saturday. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver showed some consistency and a little restraint for a change. He ended up sixth after both stages and was near the front most of the […]

William Byron's Consistency Means Another Top Five Likely at Pocono

William Byron was right in it until the end again on Saturday and figures to be on Sunday as well. The Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver finished third -- almost 1.4 seconds behind Alex Bowman. Byron finished stage 1 in second place and fourth after stage 2. He just finds ways to stay near the front. […]

Kyle Busch Expects Even Better Finish For Second Pocono Race

Kyle Busch had a great car all day on Saturday at Pocono for the 130-lap race. He did not win but did end up second just a fraction of a second behind Alex Bowman. The Joe Gibbs Racing driver was able to stay in contention throughout the race. That is the key at Pocono. Do […]

Alex Bowman Wins First Pocono Race, Eyes Good Finish at Second

Alex Bowman said it best on Saturday's win, "I'll take it". Bowman put himself in a position to contend but appeared to have second place all but sewn up. Then, the unthinkable happened. When Kyle Larson blew a tire, the No. 48 car had won the Pocono Organics CBD 325 in a very unusual way. […]

Kyle Larson Blows Tire, Has Winning Formula at Pocono Though

Heading into race number two on Sunday, it was clear on Saturday that Kyle Larson had the race car to beat. He was able to charge to the front almost at will. The Hendrick Motorsports Racing driver had one corner to go when his left front tire decided to blow. That dropped him down to […]

Connor Wong Makes First Career Start

Boston Red Sox catcher Connor Wong made his first career start Saturday against the New York Yankees, and went 1-for-3 with a single. He struck out in both his other at-bats. Wong was originally scheduled to start Sunday, but was moved up to pair with Nathan Eovaldi. This pairing was quite successful, and Wong can […]

Hunter Renfroe Delivers Three Infield Hits

Boston Red Sox outfielder Hunter Renfroe had some good fortune Saturday, going 3-for-4 with three infield hits. He drove in one run. Renfroe has hit the ball hard all year, with an average exit velocity in the 77th percentile and a max exit velocity in the 94th velocity, but sometimes it's just better to be […]
