The Studs Kyle Lowry, PG, Toronto Raptors ($8,200) The Raptors' efficient offense runs through this guy and it's no surprise that in his recent tear, he brought Toronto along with him.

There's a big chance he'll hit around that vicinity again against Denver. Marc Gasol, C, Memphis Grizzlies ($7,100) Speaking someone who has Read More

NBA DFS Basketball Value Picks: Nov. 25, 2016 The Studs Kevin Love, PF, Cleveland Cavaliers ($7,800) Kevin Love is a superstar and the Cavs are finally using him like one. Love has just exploded for 62 fantasy points on the Portland Trail Blazers and I'm excited to know what he can do against Dallas. Granted, the chance of this being a blowout is quite high (Vegas Insider has Cleveland as a -14.5 favorite) but he might still have some heat left after that ridiculous first quarter outburst. Love Read More

NBA DFS Basketball Value Picks– Nov. 13, 2016

NBA DFS Basketball Value Picks-- Nov. 13, 2016 The Studs Kemba Walker, PG, Charlotte Hornets ($7,900) There's no other Russell Westbrook, but in the past few games, Walker is doing his best Russ impression.

And Steph Curry putting up only 30.3 fantasy points the next game? I can't really imagine another scenario other than Curry and the gang smoking the Pelicans while the two-time MVP catching fire en route to a 45-50 FP game. I can pretty much say the same for Kevin Durant but KD is $300 more expensive Read More
