I’ll be focusing on my core and GPP plays for 11/11 NBA DFS for each position along with my favorite value plays. We’ve come to the point where we know most of the NBA teams and which defense to target. My diamonds for tonights DFS slate;
WithNBA DFS, you need to stay locked in the final hour before lock until tipoff. Ifyou can’t be engaged during that hour, we recommend avoiding the NBA slate.Starting lineups and other news is vital to being successful in NBA DFS.
MyCore and Value Plays by Position:
- Core Plays – PG – 11/11 DFS
- Luka Doncic, PG, DAL
- On this slate, I feel like you can get enough value at SF to lock in Harden and Doncic, but I truly believe in Kawhi Leonard going against Toronto. Toronto is on the second night of a back to back and both teams are playing at a fast pace and have overrated defenses. As for Doncic, he does have a difficult matchup against Boston, but they are also on the second night of a back to back
- Value Play – Patrick Beverley, PG, LAC
- As I just said, I love the Clippers vs. Raptors game tonight to be high scoring and I want both sides of this game. Beverley is cheap and we can count on a ton of defensive stats with higher minutes from him.
- Luka Doncic, PG, DAL
- Core Plays – SG- 11/11 DFS
- James Harden, SG, HOU
- Jrue Holiday, SG, NO
- Lou Williams, SG, LAC
- Fred VanVleet, SG, TOR
- This is the toughest position of the night so I’m listing multiple options. If you can afford Harden, I’d say lock him for sure with one of the value plays below. My second favorite is more likely VanVleet as he’s running point with Lowry out for the next couple of weeks. I still think he’s underpriced and as I said, I love the Toronto vs. LA Clippers game. As for Lou Williams and Jrue Holiday, I like them as pivots as Lou Williams is on the Clippers and Jrue Holiday should be running the point with Lonzo Ball out.
- Value Play – Marcus Smart, SG, BOS
- Value Play 2 – Norman Powell, SG, TOR
- If Marcus Smart starts, I’m locking him in as he is too cheap against a poor defense in Dallas. As for Powell, he started last night and he’s almost the minimum on FanDuel. He’s probably one of the top salary savers.
- Core Plays – SF- 11/11 DFS
- Kawhi Leonard, SF, LAC
- Leonard is probably my lock play as he won me $50,000 the other night. In all seriousness, he plays on the Clippers and do I need to repeat about the LAC and TOR game?
- Value Play – Kenrich Williams, SF, NO
- Value Play 2 – Jarrett Culver, SF, MIN
- If both start, I choose Kenrich as the HOU vs. NO game is my second favorite game of the slate. As for Culver, he’s another salary saver if he starts at PG again.
- Kawhi Leonard, SF, LAC
- Core Plays – PF- 11/11 DFS
- Derrick Favors, PF, NO
- This is probably my least favorite position of this slate and I think Favors is way too cheap. If he starts, I’m locked in. As I mentioned, my second favorite game and one of the highest on the slate will be NO vs. HOU.
- Others – AKA my not so favorite plays, but we need 2 PF on FanDuel
- Daniel Theis – If he starts for Kanter then I like the salary since he will be starting
- Trey Lyles – He’s starting for the Spurs and he plays one of the weakest defenses in the Grizzlies.
- LaMarcus Aldridge – As I mentioned, he plays against Memphis and they can’t defend anyone.
- Derrick Favors, PF, NO
- Core Plays – C- 11/11 DFS
- Montrezl Harrell, C, LAC
- Hey! He’s on the Clippers and they play the Raptors. You know the deal!
- Lock Value Play – Chris Boucher, C, TOR
- He’s getting the minutes with Ibaka out and guess what? They play against the Clippers.
- Montrezl Harrell, C, LAC
