Best Value Picks For NBA DFS Feb. 10, 2020

Leave a comment
I got it rolling the last time I did my best value picks going six for seven in the names I dropped. The seventh, Victor Oladipo, rested so I think I should get a free pass for that. Here's a rundown of what happened Feb. 8th: First name dropped was Nikola Jokic, who was absolutely volcanic in the previous games leading to this one. He cooled off a little bit but was still stellar: 23-9-6 plus a steal and three blocks. The six turnovers did hurt a little bit but he was still good for over 48 FP Read More

BEST VALUE PICKS FOR NBA DFS FEB. 8, 2020

Leave a comment
The Studs The real explosive pickup here would be Nikola Jokic who is essentially averaging a triple-double over the last six games. However, the Joker has hit the $10,000 threshold over at DraftKings. At Yahoo, he was at $49, which is reasonable, but you may want to look at other options at DK.  For instance, outside of the blowout win over Houston, DeAndre Ayton has average 23.6 points, 11.6 rebounds, 2.6 assists, 2.2 blocks, and 0.6 steals over the previous five games. As mentioned, he Read More

5 Best Shooting Guards For Fantasy Basketball

Leave a comment
Traditionally speaking, shooting guard is the shallowest position in fantasy basketball. Since point guards like Steph Curry, James Harden, and Kyrie Irving do have SG eligibility in fantasy, it makes the position pool look deeper than it actually is. In this list - 5 Best Shooting Guards For Fantasy Basketball - however, I won't include the aforementioned names (because they really are point guards who can simply score) and concentrate on players who played the SG position for the majority of their Read More

NBA DFS Players to Target – Dec. 18, 2017

Leave a comment

Ben Simmons, PF, PHI ($9,900)
Simmons scored 48.2 FP on Friday against OKC. He’s had the whole weekend to rest, and he gets a good matchup with the lowly Bulls tonight. Joel Embiid is sitting out tonight for rest, which means Simmons is in for a huge workload and more rebounds. He’s being priced below Towns, Westbrook, Harden and Durant, but has a legit chance to be a top 3 performer tonight.
Kemba Walker, PG, CHA ($8,000)
Kemba Walker is as stable as they come. He’s averaging a solid 36.7 Read More

The Studs

Victor Oladipo, PG/SG, Indiana Pacers ($8,000)

Paul George, SF, OKC Thunder ($8,000)

Victor Oladipo, PG/SG, IND ($7,700)

Victor Oladipo has fit right in with the Pacers, shooting 50% from the field including 47% from 3-point range. At $7,700 on Draft Kings, he’s a great value compared to Russell Westbrook who would set you back $11,200. Sacramento ranks 24th against opposing point guards.

Bogdan Bogdanovic, SG, SAC ($4,300)

Bogdanovic actually got the start last game, and he put up 15 points (7-9 FG, 1-1 3Pt) 4 steals, 3 rebounds and an assist in 23 minutes. He’s Read More

The Studs

Steph Curry, PG, Golden State Warriors ($9,800)
The Warriors is now officially the second seed of the Western Conference after spending most of the season on top? Well, losing Kevin Durant was tough but it could only mean more touches and Usage Rate for their real top dog in Steph Curry.

Curry is dropping an average of 46 fantasy points in the past 5 games and when he finds his deep shooting back, that can easily go up. Golden State will Read More

2016 NBA Fantasy Basketball Team Outlook: Oklahoma City Thunder

Leave a comment

The OKC Thunder won't be as good as they were in previous seasons. You may already know why but that only makes things more interesting for the Thunder fantasy-wise. Some guys will and should be ready to step up without Kevin Durant and it would be fun watching Russell Westbrook go and try to replicate Oscar Robertson's triple-double season just too keep them in hunt for a playoff berth.
As much as we talk about Durant leaving, the Thunder also made noticeable changes to their core. They shipped Read More

Fantasy Impact Of Kevin Durant’s Signing With Warriors

Leave a comment

After Kevin Durant announced he will be moving on and sign with the Golden State Warriors, that decision changes everything. Of course, it made the Dubs instant title favorites, Oklahoma City a second-tier squad, and in the words of one unnamed executive, everybody-- including LeBron James-- are playing for second place now.
While Durant joining forces with Steph Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green made the Warriors the team to beat for the next couple of years (and possibly more if KD decides Read More

Fantasy Winners And Losers In The Serge Ibaka-Victor Oladipo Trade

Leave a comment

For a team that does not have a pick in the 2016 NBA Draft, the Oklahoma City Thunder did pretty well. They parted ways with their most consistent big guy in the past five years or so (Serge Ibaka) but ended up hauling more talent than they could have possibly imagined (Victor Oladipo, Ersan Ilyasova, and 11th pick Domantas Sabonis).
Ibaka may be the best player in the trade by default but Oladipo is not far behind, while Ilyasova is a legit sharpshooting big man who is not afraid to mix it up Read More
