Isaiahs Protocol for the NBA DFS slate on 8/23

written by labatts2225@gmail.com

Isaiah’s Protocol for the NBA DFS slate is built around DraftKings pricing, but is good across the industry with some slight adjustments to salaries on the various sites. I’d like to point out that the players I’m recommending are best used together for cash game purposes. These players are also decent considerations for guaranteed prize pool (GPP) tournaments when used individually with other contrarian type players.

We’re looking at an exciting 4 game NBA DFS slate that’s packed with intriguing players. Ironically, all these teams have been playing every other day, so we have some solid data to look at. Luka Doncic suffered an ugly ankle injury his last time out and his status remains questionable today. This news has a tremendous impact on the entire NBA DFS slate and should be monitored closely. I like to advise all my readers to join the staff at WinDaily in our Discord chat rooms as we discuss some of the important news leading up to tip off, and break down some key players even further.

Strategy

DraftKings gives us a $50,000 salary cap to roster 8 players. This gives us an average of $6,250 per player. Getting to the recommended 300 point plateau, we need all 8 players to average 37.5 DraftKings fantasy points (DKFPTS). While it may sound challenging, keeping this elementary math in the back of your head while building your roster is important. Limit your risk as much as possible and find 8 players that fit this criteria. Lets take a look at this NBA DFS slate.

Scenario

Both The Toronto Raptors (-13.5), and The Boston Celtics (-7.5) are up 3 games to none, and could wrap up the series today. Unlike the other games in these series, this is important to make a note on because if they get substantial leads today, they may pull some of the starters to rest them before the next round of games. The Raptors especially, having the second highest implied team total (ITT) on the slate (115.5), make their players high risk/reward candidates.

With the Luka Doncic news pending, there should be some value opening up on this NBA DFS slate. Patrick Beverly (Doubtful, calf injury) is another piece of news, that I may target on both sides of the ball.

Cash Game Core (Spend Up)

Pascal Siakam ($7900) Pascal fits the mold of high risk/reward on this NBA DFS slate. He’s averaging 43 DKFPTS against the Nets in 6 games this season. Siakam is a threat to reach the double/double bonus every time he’s on the floor. He posted a 26/8/5 stat line for 45 DKFPTS last game. After starting out cold in the bubble, his game seems to rounding into form. Pascal scores 1.16 fantasy points (FP) per minute, and has a decent usage rate of 27.5%. He’s matched up against a Brooklyn squad that ranks 26^th against power forwards. The Nets look to have all but given up on the season. $7900 is just too cheap for the upside here. I’m taking the risk that he gets at least 30 minutes, and 40 DKFPTS, for 5X value.

Fred VanVleet ($7700) VanVleet is another guy who has been on point in the bubble. I love targeting Raptors against this banged up, defensively deficient Brooklyn squad. Fred’s salary still doesn’t seem to be increasing enough, as his 6 game average verse the Nets dictates 46 DKFPTS this season. That alone would give him 6X value. I think he’s playing better than those numbers represent. I see VanVleet as the forth starter to leave the court in a blowout scenario, after Gasol, Lowry, and Siakam.

Others I’m considering in the upper tier on this NBA DFS slate include Paul George ($8000), Kyle Lowry ($8100), and Rudy Gobert ($7800).

Cash Game Core (Average)

Jamal Murray ($6800) Jamal’s minutes were down the last 2 games verse Utah after getting blown out. His salary and ownership dropped as well! Murray is still averaging 42 DKFPTS in just over 35 minutes/gm. verse the Jazz in 5 games this season. I expect Murray and the Nuggets to step up in a big way today after watching Donovan Mitchell attempt to flush their season down the toilet. Anything close to his season averages gets us 6X value. He’s a key piece (with upside) in our cash game lineups.

Serge Ibaka ($5800) Ibaka seems to be fully recovered from a knee issue that sidelined him earlier this month. Feasting on this Brooklyn front court seems like easy pickings on this NBA DFS slate, especially with a Raptor bench player that may see his full allotment of minutes. Anything around this 36 DKFPTS average against the Nets this season, gives us 6X value. Using his salary at center gives us a lot of extra salary to work with. It may also be a contrarian move with a lot of people paying up for a stud at the center position.

Mike Conley ($6300) Conley picked up right where he left off, after leaving the bubble for the birth of his baby. He didn’t miss a beat, shooting 9-13 from the field, draining 7 of 8 from behind the arc, and adding 27 points. Utah’s 37 point thrashing of Denver on Thursday gave him 38.5 DKFPTS on his $5900 salary. That equated to just under 7X value. He got a nice bump in salary but I still think he’s a viable option in cash games.

Risk Option

I really like the combination of Jaylen Brown ($7300) and Kemba Walker ($6900) in cash game lineups at these salaries. Boston will be without the services of Gordon Hayward (ankle) for a while. I expect Marcus Smart to be deployed as a defensive specialist to slow down Tobias Harris and annoy Embiid as much as possible. The Celtics will be looking to lean on the other starters to step up their offense. I’m not 100% sold on rostering Celtics knowing they may get pulled for rest if Philadelphia doesn’t show up for this do-or-die game. Their respective salaries are enticing for cash game purposes on this NBA DFS slate.

Cash Game Core (Value)

As I mentioned earlier, The Luka Doncic/Patrick Beverly news in that DAL/LAC game should open up some nice value on this NBA DFS slate. If Doncic can’t play, look for Tim Hardaway Jr. ($5700), Seth Curry ($4600), Trey Burke ($4100), and even Delon Wright ($3500) to step up their games offensively. On the flip side, if defensive specialist Patrick Beverly can’t go, I expect Landry Shamet ($3400) to get the start at PG, and both Lou Williams ($5900), and Reggie Jackson ($3500) to see bumps in production.

Shake Milton ($4400) Milton is looking to plant an anchor as a future piece of the Sixer squad. His minutes and productivity have been steadily increasing, and I expect him to see solid minutes today for a Philadelphia team desperate to find offense anywhere they can.

Some others I’m considering on this NBA DFS slate are Marcus Morris Sr. ($5400), Jordan Clarkson ($5300), Ivica Zubac ($4400), Monte Morris ($3900)

Isaiahs Protocol for the NBA DFS slate on 8/19

labatts2225@gmail.com 5 years ago

written by labatts2225@gmail.com

We’re looking at an exciting 4 game NBA DFS slate that’s packed with intriguing players. There is some injury news out there to keep an eye on. I like to advise all my readers to join the staff at WinDaily in our Discord chat rooms as we discuss some of the important news leading up to tip off, and break down some key players even further.

Strategy

It’s extremely important to understand that this is a cash game article. My focus is to find 8 players on the DraftKings NBA DFS slate that will get the recommended 300 point total that should be enough to finish in the top 50% of double up, 50/50, or head to head games. The roster building process is different for GPP tournaments where it’s wise to use more expensive players for their scoring upside, and pair them with players that may exceed their value to get you in the top 10% of your contest. Finding high risk/reward players while paying close attention to ownership percentages is important to differentiate your lineup in GPP’s. For cash games, ownership is far less important as we’re simply looking to find a roster that will finish in the top 50% of the contest, and win some cash. Proper bankroll management is important for limiting the number of deposits you make with your own money. Doubling a wager in cash games is an excellent way to counter risks you may take playing GPP contests. It’s always better to take shots at bigger GPP contests with the “house” money you’ve already won playing cash games.

Cash Game Core (Spend Up)

Jamal Murray ($7200) Jamal has been absolute fire lately. He played his average 40 minutes verse Utah on Monday finishing with 36 points, 9 assists, and 5 rebounds. He scored just under 60 DKFPTS in that game, crushing value at just under 10X. Murray did get a bump in salary, but still averages 51 DKFPTS verse the Jazz in his 3 games against them this season. Those numbers equate to a safe 7X value at this salary.

Fred VanVleet ($7600) VanVleets is another guy who has been on point in the bubble. He flies a bit under the radar with players like Lillard dominating the headlines. I love targeting Raptors against this banged up, defensively deficient Brooklyn squad. Fred also got a substantial salary increase after dropping 60 DKFPTS on the Nets Monday. His 4 game average against the Nets dictates 47 DKFPTS this season. That alone would give him 6X value, and I think he’s playing better than those numbers represent.

Cash Game Core (Average)

Serge Ibaka ($5700) Ibaka seems to be fully recovered from a knee issue that sidelined him earlier this month. Serge has played 25+ minutes in the last 2 games and scored 38, and 43 DKFPTS in those games respectively. Keeping with the Raptor target theme, and feasting on this Brooklyn frontcourt seems like easy pickings on this NBA DFS slate. Anything around this 40 DKFPTS average gives us 7X value, and plugging him in at center (and using the value below) allows us to pay up for just about any stud we want.

Including the value below, there should be enough salary to do anything you like. Using another value piece should enable you to pay up for Luka Doncic, Kawhi Leonard, or Joel Embiid. I think for cash games I’m leaning more on finishing my roster build with a balanced approach.

I really like the combination of Jaylen Brown ($7500) and Kemba Walker ($6800) at this point. Boston will be without the services of Gordon Hayward (ankle) for a while. I expect Marcus Smart to be deployed as a defensive specialist to slow down Tobias Harris and annoy Embiid as much as possible. The Celtics will be looking to lean on the other starters to step up their offense.

Other players I’m considering in the mid-range of this NBA DFS slate include Paul George ($8600), Caris LaVert ($8200), Kyle Lowry ($8000), Pascal Siakam ($7500), and Rudy Gobert ($7400).

Cash Game Core (Value)

I’ve been finding it difficult to roster some quality, consistent, affordable forwards on this NBA DFS slate. Listing them here will give me a little savings to squeeze in my spend ups, while filling this difficult position.

Joe Ingles ($5600) Ingles has been averaging around 44 minutes a game verse the Nuggets and scored 37 DKFPTS in both games last week. Bogdonovic opted out of the bubble earlier this season. Even though Conley returned to the bubble yesterday, he still has to self-quarantine for a bit. This leaves the Jazz backcourt wide open for as many minutes as Ingles can handle. Feel confident firing Ingles up once again in that difficult SF position, hoping he exceeds his average 7X value at that salary.

Timothe Luwawu-Cabarrot (TLC) ($4700) TLC has looked pretty good lately. He had 26 points and 7 rebounds, for 40 DKPTS against Toronto on Monday. TLC has been playing north of 30 minutes in the last week. I expect more of the same on this NBA DFS slate. Anything over 33 DKFPTS will give us 7X value on this salary, and TLC is also PF eligible on DraftKings. I don’t hate rostering him at that spot enabling me to pay up elsewhere.

Some others I’m considering are Marcus Morris Sr. ($4800), Jordan Clarkson ($4700), Alec Burks ($4600), Ivica Zubac ($4500), Monte Morris ($3700), and Semi Ojeleye ($3000).

Gordon Hayward has already been ruled out for Boston, and Kristaps Porzingas remains highly questionable in the late game today (which is NOT ideal).

Isaiahs Protocol for the NBA DFS Slate on 8/17

Mitchell Thoennes 5 years ago

written by Mitchell Thoennes

The NBA playoffs are finally here. We’re looking at an exciting 4 game NBA DFS slate that’s packed with intriguing players. There is some injury news out there to keep an eye on. I like to advise all my readers to join the staff at WinDaily in our Discord chat rooms as we discuss some of the important news leading up to tip off, and break down some key players even further.

Strategy

Cash Game Core (Spend Up)

Rudy Gobert ($7700) I know there are probably better options at center with Gobert squaring off against Nikola Jokic, and the Denver Nuggets. Keep in mind that we’re staying focused on the math (above). Rudy is a key starting piece of the Utah frontcourt and will be leaned on heavily for his presence down low. In 3 games vs. the Nuggets this season he averages 40 minutes, and supplies a 20 point, 13 rebound double double. Gobert is also one of the better defending big men in the NBA, so there may be some added secondary stats as well. This equates to a 41 DKFPTS average.

Pascal Siakam ($7500) Pascal hasn’t looked to be the superstar he’s supposed to be in the bubble so far. This is the playoffs, and a different story. It’s been a long known fact in NBA DFS to target big men verse the Brooklyn Nets. This is no exception. Toronto is the biggest favorite on the NBA DFS slate (-9.5), and has the second highest expected point total (222). I love targeting this Raptor squad as much as possible. In 3 games verse the Nets this season, Pascal is averaging 35 minutes, 22 points, 8 rebounds, and 4 assists. That gives him 45 DKFPTS on average for $7500. Lock him in at the tricky PF spot on your roster.

Cash Game Core (Average)

This is where I will be locking in 3, if not all 4 (including utility) of my guard spots on this NBA DFS slate. I’m not going to break them all down as they should speak for themselves. All 4 of them are starters projected for at least 30 minutes, have 40 DKFPTS upside, and have salaries that fit perfectly in our template. They are all seasoned veterans that should thrive in running their respective offenses in the playoff hunt.

Kemba Walker ($6900)

Fred VanVleet ($6800)

Jamal Murray ($6500)

Mike Conley ($6300)

Cash Game Core (Value)

While we may have overspent a little so far, I think we can still make it happen. Let me give you a list of potential players I’m considering to finish filling out my cash game roster. I’ve listed them in order of salary, not upside, or favorite.

Joe Harris ($4700), Marc Gasol ($4300)(keep an eye on Ibaka’s status here), Marcus Morris Sr. ($4200), Alec Burks ($3900), Jordan Clarkson ($3800), Chris Boucher ($3700) (again, Ibaka status), Monte Morris ($3600), Royce O’Neal ($3500)

Cash with Flash Best Bets: Thursday NCAA Picks!

Phil Naessens 5 years ago

written by Phil Naessens

Cash with Flash Best Bets is back for another day of sports betting picks. Wednesday was a better day as we went 1-1 but we also lost the NBA for who knows how long. That leaves us at 3-6 for the week and we need to right the ship before it sinks.

We have all sorts of March Madness conference tournaments happening plus the NHL season and it truly is a maddening time of the year.

Be sure that you are wise with your money during this period; it’s easy getting sucked into action with all the opportunities that are available to you.

If you want to win money on a consistent basis then you need to join Win Daily Sports. $19.99 per month gets you everything we have to offer here including Discord Chat access.

Bankroll Management

Can’t stress enough how important managing your bankroll is to your long-term success. I don’t know your personal financial situation or what your goals are but hopefully, you are using some type of bankroll management plan to help you reach them.

Discord

We’re abandoning the Slack Chat in favor of Discord. If you haven’t already done so, you will need to sign up for Discord with this link. Then use this link to gain access to the Win Daily Sports channel.

Cash with Flash Best Bets has the following NCAA games for you to consider tonight.

Toledo Rockets -125 over Bowling Green

Bowling Green won both meetings this season but both contests have been very close and I suspect and Kenneth Pomeroy confirms that Toledo is the better team and probably has underachieved this season. Toledo enters this matchup riding a two-game winning streak whereas Bowling Green has dropped three consecutive games and is trending in the opposite direction as the Rockets. Cash with Flash Best Bets suggests playing Toledo to defeat Bowling Green this evening.

Butler Bulldogs -125 over Providence Friars

This is going to be a defensive battle this afternoon before a packed Madison Square Garden crowd disguised as empty seats. Butler has a much better offense and will rely on that offense to outscore the Friars today. The two schools split their two season meetings and Cash with the Flash Best Bets suggests taking Butler to defeat Providence in this Big East Tournament matchup.

Marquette Golden Eagles +3.5 over Seton Hall Pirates

We liked Marquette at +2.5 but the sharps jumped all over the line and now we are looking at a nice, +3.5 line and we like that even more. The Pirates easily defeated the Golden Eagles in both meetings this season but big games are what Marquette All-American guard Markus Howard is all about. Seton Hall may win this matchup and Cash with Flash Best Bets suggests laying the points and taking the Golden Eagles to cover the spread tonight.

Isaiahs Protocol for the NBA DFS slate on 3/11

Isaiah 5 years ago

written by Isaiah

Isaiah’s Protocol for the NBA DFS slate is researched using DraftKings (DK) pricing. The players are good across the industry with some slight adjustments to salaries on the various sites. Some players may not be listed here because I prefer them on FanDuel (FD). I like to advise all my readers to join the staff at WinDaily, in our Discord chat rooms, as we discuss some of the important news of the day and break down some of these intriguing plays even further.

Most of the players I recommendare best used together for cash game purposes. These players are also decentconsiderations for guaranteed prize pool (GPP) games when used individuallywith other contrarian type players.

We are looking at an interesting 6 game NBA DFS slate tonight. I think there is an abundance of decent mid-level players tonight which is pushing me towards a balanced approach to roster construction. While there are some value players available, expected injury/rest news should open up some more value so that we can get to the stars tonight.

THE GAMES

Kristaps Porzingas ($9400) has sat out the last 4 back-to-back (B2B) games the Mavericks have played. I’m writing with the expectation that tonight will be no different.
The Pelicans/Kings game has the highest total of 235 points. The Knicks/Hawks game is right behind them with 233 points expected. These 2 games are almost 15 points higher than all the rest of the games and are the best place to target players on this NBA DFS slate. Both games represent the 2 fastest-paced contests of the night as well.
Jimmy Butler ($8000), Kendrick Nunn ($4800), and Tyler Herro ($3300) are listed as questionable. With the Heat being 10 point home favorites there may be some nice value opening up in this backcourt.

THE STUDS

Luka Doncic ($11000) Luka is a little banged up right now with a sprained right wrist. He also got sick last week and battled a sprained left thumb. None of these things stopped him from dropping 63.25 DraftKings fantasy points (DKFPTS) on the Spurs last night. Doncis’s 37.9% usage rate and 1.66 fantasy points (FP) per minute, both get huge bumps when Porzingas is off the floor. It’s not an ideal matchup against a Nugget team that ranks 13th in defensive efficiency (DEFF) and 7th in (DVA) which is a rank given to the opponent when facing this player’s archetype. Luka is basically matchup proof and needs to be considered when constructing your rosters.

Trae Young ($10400) With Luka projected to have 57.24% of the ownership, I don’t see how we don’t look to pivot to Trae’s 22%. He looked to be a little “off” in his last game and I hope that keeps his ownership low. Looking to be healthier after fighting the Flu last week, Trae carries a 37.1% usage rate and scores 1.44 FP/min. He’s squaring off against a Knick team that ranks 26^th in both DEFF and DVA vs. opposing point guards (PG). New York is also on the second half of a B2B after a dismal performance last night against the lowly Wizards. Young has averaged 67.4 DKFPTS in 2 games vs. the Knicks and is quickly becoming my favorite player on the entire NBA DFS slate.

THE CORE

Julius Randle ($7800) Randle had a sub-par performance against Washington last night and I’m hoping this keeps his ownership low. I’m going right back to the well tonight. Randle has a 27.3% usage rate and scores 1.15 FP/min. Julius also spanked Atlanta in both of his previous games to the tune of an average of 49.6 DKFPTS as the Hawks rank 16^th in DEFF and 19^th in DVA against opposing power forwards (PF). John Collins ($9100) is listed questionable but probable with an ankle sprain. Elfrid Payton ($6500) was also a little “off” last night and I love a little game stack to take advantage of this spot tonight.

Danilo Gallinari ($5900) Nothing eye-popping here. Danilo has a 23% usage rate and scores just over an FP/min. He averages between 30-32 minutes a game and scored 35.3 DKFPTS against Utah in his previous game with them. He may get a slight bump in production tonight if SGA misses this contest. The math checks out here as 35 DKFPTS gets him to 6X value. This makes him one of the most stable, and cheap, core options to start building your roster with.

Nemanja Bjelica ($5500) The frontcourt situation has gotten a bit murky in Sacramento with the return of Richaun Holmes ($5000). The one constant for the Kings all season has been Bjelica. He still managed to play 30 minutes last game with 3 big men available. I want to find some exposure to the best game on this NBA DFS slate and Nemanja looks to be a cheap answer. He has a 17.3% usage rate and scores just under an FP/min. The Pelicans rank 17^th in DEFF and 25^th in DVA vs. opposing PF’s.

I realize that this isn’t the sexiest of lists. I’m just trying to show that these players will be a “core” of my rosters. They should allow me to build in different ways involving higher-priced players and value, or a solid mid-tier roster that will be best suited for cash games.

THE OTHERS

Bam Adebayo ($9000), Tobias Harris ($8500), Christian Wood ($8100), Lonzo Ball ($7900), Zion Williamson ($7800), De’Aaron Fox ($7800), Al Horford ($7400), Elfrid Payton ($6500), Will Barton ($6200), Dennis Schroder ($6200)(a core play if Shai Gilgeous-Alexander sits), Mitchell Robinson ($5700), Buddy Hield ($5400), Brandon Knight ($4900), Mike Scott ($4800)(only if Joel Embiid is out).

THE VALUE

Maxi Kleber ($4600) Averaging .88 FP/min, and 30+ minutes in games that Porzingas has missed, Kleber looks to be one of the best value plays on the NBA DFS slate.

Bobby Portis ($4200) Taj Gibson ($3100) is slowly being faded into oblivion and Portis looks to be the sixth man filling in at both the PF and Center spots. Mitchell Robinson ($5700) is no stranger to foul trouble and attacking this Hawks frontcourt has been DFS gold. Portis also fits nicely into that game stack I alluded to earlier.

Thon Maker ($3100) There aren’t any “Bigs” left in Detroit and Henson has an ankle injury. This is a minute/value play only if Henson misses the game.

Boban Marjanovic ($3000) Willie Cauley-Stein ($3000) was held out of the last game battling an illness. With no Porzingas, hit the lock button here if WCS has to sit again.

There are a ton of players to like tonight. I simply don’t have the time to write all of them up. I highly encourage all readers to join myself, and the rest of the WinDaily team in the Discord chat rooms as we break down and discuss our favorite plays. Thank you for reading my content and feel free to leave a comment, or leave me a message on Twitter @IsaiahsProtocol.

Mitch’s 3/11 NBA position Breakdown

billyr011199@gmail.com 5 years ago

written by billyr011199@gmail.com

In this article, I will break down each position with my top stud, middle tier, and value plays for this NBA DFS slate. I will be referring to DraftKings on pricing. Most picks are for GPP/Tournaments, some would also be viable for cash games.

We have a six-game NBA slate tonight that we get to sort through. It’s towards the end of the year so any team with nothing to play for is risky right now. On top of all that we have a ton of players that are injured or could be resting up for playoffs. We have a ton of injury news to watch heading into this evening and the Miami Heat is a major part of that. It is also the second leg of a back to back for Dallas so I wouldn’t be surprised if Luka or Porzingis would sit tonight, so tune into the Discord chat rooms with myself and the rest of the WinDaily staff as we breakdown any injury news that comes in, and further evaluate our favorite plays.

Point Guard

De’AaronFox – Stud – ($7,800)

Sacramento is trying to make a playoff push here towards the end of the season and I want to target players in meaningful games. Fox has a fantastic matchup here against New Orleans who was allowed the most fantasy point to point guards in the NBA this season. The Pelicans are the third-fastest team in the league and the total of this game is at 235 which is the highest on the slate.

Brandon Knight – Mid-tier – ($4,900)

Detroit is one of the more beat up teams in the NBA right now and I really like this play if Bruce Brown sits. When all the Pistons that are out off the floor including Brown, Knight has the second-highest usage on the team at 28.2 percent and is averaging 48.5 fantasy points per 36 minutes. Over the last five games, the 76ers are the worst team in the NBA in defensive efficiency.

FrankNtilikina – Value – ($3,200)

This is a tournament play only and I’m only on him if we get word he is starting. The reason I think he could start is Payton really struggled last night, resulting in Ntilikina seeing 30 minutes and recording a double-double. The Hawks are the third-worst team in defensive efficiency, seventh-fastest team, and have given up the fourth-most fantasy points to point guards over the last month of the NBA season.

Shooting Guard

Donovan Mitchell – Stud – ($7,300)

Shooting guard is thin on tonight’s NBA slate and I’ll be spending downif Jimmy Butler is out. Mitchell should be a good option as his price hasdropped $800 in a week. He should see a combination of Gilgeous-Alexander orSchroeder defense which I am a big fan of. He is also averaging 46 fantasypoints in two previous meetings against Oklahoma City.

Bogdan Bogdanovic – Mid-tier – ($5,100)

This game is my favorite on tonight’s NBA slate due to what is at stake for both teams trying to make a playoff push and Memphis lost last night. Bogdanovic is very consistent for his price scoring nearly 25 fantasy points per night. He does have a high ceiling as he just went off for 52.5 fantasy points. Facing the third-fastest team in the league, a lot of these Kings players are underpriced, as I like Buddy Hield in this spot too.

Kendrick Nunn – Value – ($4,800)

More on this play if Jimmy Butler is confirmed out as Nunn has a usage percentage of 23.6 percent and is averaging 40.3 fantasy points per 36 minutes with Butler off the floor. Charlotte is the fifth-worst defensive team in the NBA this season, this is a great spot for Nunn if he plays, and Butler is out.

Small Forward

Stud

I’m not a fan of any of these top-priced small forwards on tonight’s NBA slate as I think Jimmy Butler sits out and I’m off Tobias with Richardson and maybe Embiid coming back. I won’t have anyone at small forward from $8,000 and above.

Shae Gilgeous-Alexander – Mid-tier – ($6,300)

Just a week ago Shae was $1,100 higher priced than he is now, and he’s only missed one game. He is tied for twelfth in the NBA in minutes per game this season. The game before he got hurt, he had just put up 42.5 fantasy points against Detroit. The Thunder are only one game behind the Jazz for the fourth seed and home-court advantage in the first round so this is a big game for both sides.

Caleb Martin – Value – ($4,000)

Martin has been on the NBA squad just under a month for Charlotte, but he has started to impress. In his 17 games with the team so far Martin is shooting an astounding 55 percent from three-point range. He played 37 minutes in Charlotte’s last game against the Hawks and scored 41.5 fantasy points. Martin was already earning himself more minutes with the Hornets and he could’ve solidified even more with his last performance.

Power Forward

Christian Wood – Stud – ($8,100)

Wood already had about the safest minutes in the NBA, now they become even safer with Henson being ruled out. I like this play a lot more if Embiid remains out which I think he will since he has yet to be fully cleared. With Henson and these other Piston players, out off the floor Wood sees a usage rate of 30 percent and is averaging 49 fantasy points per 36 minutes.

De’Andre Hunter – Mid-tier – ($5,300)

The Hawks are continuing to run their starters out for big minutes asHunter has only seen under 30 minutes once in his last 15 games. He has playedthe Knicks twice this season and is averaging 38 fantasy points in those twogames. I like Hunter and Harrison Barnes in this spot as both are among thesafest minutes on tonight’s NBA slate.

Thon Maker – Value – ($3,100)

With Henson out, Maker is going to have to play big minutes here and should be able to at least accidentally get 20 fantasy points if he sees 30 minutes. Maker is averaging 31 fantasy points per 36 minutes with Henson off the floor, along with a usage rate of 18.6 percent for a near-minimum salary player. The 76ers are also the worst NBA team in terms of defensive efficiency over the last five games.

Center

Julius Randle – Stud – ($7,800)

After a tough night, last night against Washington and is 22 percent owned, I think he gets overlooked in this spot against Atlanta. A great matchup against Atlanta who has allowed the third-most fantasy points to power forwards and the second most to centers over the course of this NBA season. Atlanta is also the third-worst defensive efficient team in the league, so I like Randle to bounce back from last night at lower ownership.

Richuan Holmes – Mid-tier – ($5,000)

It’s now or never for both teams as they push for the NBA playoffs is heating up and these two are tied at just three and a half games behind Memphis for the eighth seed. Holmes hasn’t seen above 20 minutes since returning from his injury, but this is the spot I think he gets 25 or more minutes as it was a shoulder injury and not a lower-body injury. He gets an amazing matchup against the third-fastest team in the league.

Bismack Biyombo – Value – ($4,000)

Biyombo has scored at least 24.5 fantasy points in four straight games now and Hernangomez has been said to be dropped from the rotation, which should solidify him for at least 20 minutes. Charlotte typically rides the hot hand at the center on any given night, but I give the advantage to Biyombo who should mostly face the Miami second unit. Odds are I won’t be going this cheap at the center on this NBA slate unless it’s for Maker, but Biyombo and Bobby Portis are great options for you to be contrarian.

Wrapping up this six-game NBA slate that we have tonight I want the starters and pieces of the games that are still important. My main target tonight is clearly the New Orleans at Sacramento game along with Utah at Denver is also a very important game but may not be as intriguing from a fantasy standpoint, but I still see some underpriced guys in that game. The Heat have Butler and Nunn who are both questionable and as mentioned earlier. I wouldn’t be surprised if Porzingis or Luka sat out on the second half of a back to back, so make sure you check out the Discord chat rooms as myself and the rest of the WinDaily staff filter through the injury news and further breakdown our top targets for the evening. Thanks for reading and good luck!

written by Phil Naessens

Cash with Flash Best Bets is back for another day of sports betting picks. Tuesday was awful and going 0-3 isn’t our idea of fun. That leaves us at 2-5 for the week and we need to right the ship before it sinks.

We have all sorts of March Madness conference tournaments happening plus the NBA and NHL seasons and it truly is a maddening time of the year.

Be sure that you are wise with your money during this period; it’s easy getting sucked into action with all the opportunities that are available to you.

Cash with Flash Best Bets has the following NBA game for you to consider for tonight.

New Orleans Pelicans -125 over Sacramento Kings

New Orleans has defeated Sacramento in four of their last five meetings including its only meeting this season and that game was also in Sacramento. The Pelicans are a different team since Zion Williamson has laced up his sneakers and they enter this contest relatively healthy and riding a two-game winning streak. Sacramento also appears healthy and they’ve won three of their last four games. Cash with Flash Best Bets suggests playing the Pelicans to defeat the Kings tonight.

Cash with Flash Best Bets suggests the following NCAA games for tonight.

St Johns Red Storm vs Georgetown Hoyas UNDER 151.5 Points

The UNDER is 2-0 over their previous meetings this season and the Hoyas will be without their best two offensive players. St John’s has a strong defense with a mediocre offense that will likely have a tough time scoring against a Hoyas team that will have to play defense because they can’t outscore St John’s straight-up. Cash with Flash Best Bets suggests playing the UNDER in this contest tonight.

DePaul Blue Demons vs Xavier Muskateers UNDER 134.5 Points

The UNDER is 1-1 over their past two meetings this season and we have two very strong defenses up against two mediocre offenses and this being a tournament game on a neutral court, the defense is going to win out. Cash with Flash Best Bets suggests playing the UNDER in this contest.

NBA DFS: Ghost’s Ghouls 03/10/2020

Christopher Day 5 years ago

written by Christopher Day

This article discusses a core for DFS players to build around for today’s FanDuel NBA slate. While there are many different sports and various contests pertaining to DFS along with their respective strategies, we focus on the main approaches to build both reliable cash and GPP lineups for a successful NBA night including pace, the projected over/under, one on one matchups, and a team’s defensive rating. Make sure to stay active when building NBA lineups – if you cannot be in front of a computer, tablet, or on your phone an hour before lock do not throw your money away! NBA DFS lineups can change at the blink of an eye and is the most variable compared to any other sport in DFS; players get injured, some sit for load management, and others find themselves on the DNP list for other reasons; any of which can sway your lineup and where to find value. Stay alert on the WinDaily Discord chat to follow along with our updated plays. GOOD LUCK TO ALL!

PointGuard

Coby White, Chicago Bulls ($6,400 FD)

The young guard is getting his first career start and couldn’t have a better matchup. The Cavaliers are the NBA’s worst team against point guards, allowing 51.30 FD points per game. It doesn’t hurt that Coby White is on a tear as well, averaging 39.51 FD points per game across his last eight games in 33 minutes per outing.

Elfrid Payton, New York Knicks ($6,200 FD)

My main pivot to a chalky Coby White, Elfrid Payton is in a great spot versus the Washington Wizards tonight. Every time the Wizards are on the NBA slate, there is always a consideration for a full game stack. If doing so, start here with the Knicks’ primary ball-handler, who put up 48.8 FD points last time they played just a few weeks ago.

Ricky Rubio, Phoenix Suns ($6,900 FD)

Coming off a 25-point triple-double, I am hoping Ricky Rubio stays lower owned than early-morning projections. I love playing Rubio on most NBA slates, but when he plays Portland, I lock him in most of my lineups. The Spaniard averages 41.5 FD points per game versus the Trail Blazers this season and should be good for 6x at his price tag. I don’t know what it is, but he loves playing Portland and I won’t miss out.

Other NBA FD Considerations

Luka Doncic, Dallas Mavericks ($10,900 FD) – Sore wristand if he’s out, lock Porzingis.

Russell Westbrook, Houston Rockets ($10,500 FD) –Great matchup if paying up.

Collin Sexton, Cleveland Cavaliers ($6,200 FD) – On atear and his price went DOWN..?

Shaquille Harrison, Chicago Bulls ($4,900 FD) – Averaging 38.83 FD points over the last 3.

Markelle Fultz, Orlando Magic ($4,900 FD) – Burned uslast time but attack Memphis defense.

Punt: Patty Mills, San Antonio Spurs ($3,500 FD) –Murray out and Pop loves Mills.

ShootingGuard

DeMar DeRozan, San Antonio Spurs ($8,000FD)

He hasn’t been doing what he was projected to do without LaMarcus Aldridge in the lineup, but DeMar DeRozan will have to score in bunches if the Spurs want a chance at beating the Mavs. The usage will be there and will be higher than usual, his minutes will be locked in if this one stays close, and if it does, it’s because he’s going off.

Devin Booker, Phoenix Suns ($8,200 FD)

In one of my favorite games to stack on this NBA slate, Devin Booker is right around the price where we like him to be. He’s averaging 38.33 minutes per game across his last six and closes the first and third quarters as the primary ball-handler when Ricky Rubio typically leaves the court. He’ll get most of his points there, but he should be in for a good night.

CJ McCollum, Portland Trail Blazers($7,400)

I’ve been on the Damian Lillard train for the past three games and now it’s time to hop off. CJ McCollum is outproducing his backcourt partner and saw his price come down from what it was without Dame in the lineup. He’s averaging 40 FD points per game in the last three since Lillard came back, and is my primary target in a game stack with my Phoenix Suns players.

Other NBA FD Considerations

James Harden, Houston Rockets ($11,200 FD) – Great spotif paying up.

Bradley Beal, Washington Wizards ($9,900 FD) – He isplaying the Knicks…

D’Angelo Russell, Minnesota Timberwolves ($7,900 FD) –Attack Harden defense.

Malik Beasley, Minnesota Timberwolves ($5,700 FD) –Steady production.

Terrence Ross, Orlando Magic ($5,400 FD) – Been playinghim over the last month; fire.

Lou Williams, Los Angeles Clippers ($4,900 FD) – How muchrun will the bench get?

SmallForward

LeBron James, Los Angeles Lakers ($10,700FD)

After taking down the Milwaukee Bucks and Los Angeles Clippers in the same week, LeBron James is on a mission to prove he is the NBA’s MVP. With reports that he is now nursing a groin injury, I think the Lakers give The King a rest tonight but if he plays, he is in a great spot facing a Brooklyn Nets team that allows 46.81 FD points per game to opposing primary ball handlers.

Paul George, Los Angeles Clippers ($7,400FD)

This game has blowout alert all over it, but it’s oneof many things we preach in our Discord chat: you cannot predict blowouts andhow it will affect players. Paul George is just too cheap for someone who hasthe potential to score in bunches, assist on many baskets, and pile updefensive stats en route to a 45+ FD point night.

Cedi Osman, Cleveland Cavaliers ($4,400FD)

Cedi Osman has been the main man since Kevin Porter Jr. went down for the Cavs three games ago. In that stretch, Osman has seen 38.67 minutes and has produced 30 FD points per game. Tonight, he sees a Bulls team that is more vulnerable toward the frontcourt and could be a good source on a value on this NBA slate.

Other NBA FD Considerations

Mikal Bridges, Phoenix Suns ($5,400 FD)

Rudy Gay, San Antonio Spurs ($4,300 FD)

PowerForward

Anthony Davis, Los Angeles Lakers ($10,400FD)

If LeBron’s out, lock Anthony Davis in. You always fear the dreaded “Anthony Davis to the locker room” tweet but he will be an elite target should James sit this one out. The Nets are the NBA’s 4^th-worst team versus centers, allowing 57.26 FD points per game and Davis could break the slate at any time.

Kristaps Porzingis, Dallas Mavericks($9,400 FD)

He let a lot of people down last time out, but Kristaps Porzingis will be a lock if Luka Doncic sits. Even if Doncic does play, I still like a bounce-back game from Porzingis here who should see the likes of Trey Lyles and Drew Eubanks on the other side. Last time the Mavs played the Spurs, both Doncic and Porzingis went for 55+ FD points, while the latter did so in just 29 minutes played.

Julius Randle, New York Knicks ($7,300 FD)

Julius Randle is one of the most inconsistent mid-range players in NBA DFS but tonight he could provide to be a great leverage play. In 3 games versus the Wizards this season, Randle has put up a 28.7/11.3/3/1/0.7 scoring line and 47.77 FD points per game. At a mere $7,300, he, along with Aaron Gordon, can be great mid-range targets on this NBA slate.

Other NBA FD Considerations

Aaron Gordon, Orlando Magic ($7,000 FD)

Robert Covington, Houston Rockets ($6,200 FD)

Kawhi Leonard, Los Angeles Clippers ($9,400 FD)

Center

Andre Drummond,Cleveland Cavaliers ($8,200 FD)

He is our fearless leader’s kryptonite, but he can produce a 60-point night at any time just like he could throw up a dud. Tonight, I think he gives us the former. Andre Drummond faces a Chicago team that has been decimated by centers all season long, averaging 57.95 FD points per game allowed. This could be one of Drummond’s 20-20 games, and at $8,200, don’t miss out.

Aaron Baynes,Phoenix Suns ($5,300 FD)

Only viable if DeAndre Ayton sits again, Aaron Baynes has been the talk of the NBA DFS world after putting up 65 against Portland just four days ago. Tonight, he faces the same team but tempers your expectations; he hit nine 3-pointers last time out en route to 37 points and 65 FD points. He won’t put another 65, but I expect another 30-35 if Ayton sits.

Montrezl Harrell,Los Angeles Clippers ($5,700 FD)

Just as a wrote a quick note for Lou Williams at the SG position, how much run will the Clippers bench get tonight? Being a huge favorite in this game with a -11.5 spread, Vegas indicates that it will be a blowout, but we can’t predict that. More importantly, the Warriors play small and Harrell could see a lot of runs.

Other NBA FDConsiderations

Marquese Chriss, GoldenState Warriors ($6,000 FD)

Gamesto Consider:

New York Knicks@ Washington Wizards (228 over/under)
Phoenix Suns @Portland Trail Blazers (232.5 over/under)
MinnesotaTimberwolves @ Houston Rockets (246 over/under)

Cash with Flash Best Bets: NBA Tuesday Picks!

Phil Naessens 5 years ago

written by Phil Naessens

Cash with Flash Best Bets is back for another day of sports betting picks. Monday was a difficult day but we still finished up at 2-2 so at least it wasn’t a losing day.

We have all sorts of March Madness conference tournaments happening plus the NBA and NHL seasons and it truly is a maddening time of the year.

Be sure that you are wise with your money during this period; it’s easy getting sucked into action with all the opportunities that are available to you.

Cash with Flash Best Bets has the following NBA games for you to consider for tonight.

Cleveland Cavaliers +4 over the Chicago Bulls

The Bulls have won two of their previous three meetings but Cleveland covered the spread in two of those three games. The Bulls will be without their leading scorer Zach LaVive tonight and that’s a huge loss for Chicago. The Cavs enter Tuesday winners of two straight and is 2-2-1 against the spread (ATS) over their last five games. Chicago is 2-3 ATS over their last five games and Cash with Flash Best Bets suggests taking the four points and playing the Cavaliers to cover the spread tonight.

Dallas Mavericks -3.5 Points over San Antonio Spurs

The Mavericks are looking at a season series sweep over their Southwest Division rival San Antonio and I suspect Dallas will cover the spread tonight and then some. The Spurs are in a tailspin and can’t seem to stay healthy or two get out of their own way. Dallas is looking for a playoff spot and is coming off a home loss to Indiana. Dallas has covered the spread in two of their three meetings with the Spurs and they should do so again and especially so with Spurs forward LaMarcus Aldridge on the shelf with an injured shoulder. Cash with Flash Best Bets suggests laying the wood and playing the Mavericks to cover the spread tonight.

Memphis Grizzlies -2 points over Orlando Magic

Orlando has been hot lately and enters this matchup on a two-game winning streak but they have a 13-20 road record and they are up against a Grizzlies team that has won four of its last five games and covered the spread in four of those five games. Memphis is 18-14 at home this season and appears healthier as Orlando will be without Evan Fournier who will miss an extended period of time with an elbow injury. Cash with Flash Best Bets suggests laying the two points and playing the Grizzlies to cover the spread tonight.

Mitch’s 3/9 NBA position Breakdown

billyr011199@gmail.com 5 years ago

written by billyr011199@gmail.com

In this article, I will break down each position with my top stud, middle tier, and value plays for this NBA DFS slate. On a smaller slate-like tonight I may not be able to hit all three categories at each position. I will be referring to DraftKings on pricing. Most picks are for GPP/Tournaments, some would also be viable for cash games.

A small three-game NBA slate tonight that is going to be a funky one and I’m not sure how much I will play. I say that because on a small slate like this when you have Giannis out and these Milwaukee players this cheap it will be tough to be unique. There doesn’t appear to be many players heading into this evening as questionable aside from De’Andre Hunter, but that can change in the blink of an eye so be sure you tune into the Discord chat rooms with me and the rest of the WinDaily staff as we follow the injury news throughout the day and further evaluate our favorite plays.

Point Guard

Eric Bledsoe – Mid-tier – ($5,700)

With Giannisout Bledsoe sees a usage increase of nine percent putting him second on theteam at 32.9 percent. Bledsoe is also averaging 52.34 fantasy points per 36minutes with Giannis off the floor. He doesn’t get a great matchup against Denver,but the usage increase and the extremely cheap price make him a no brainer. Giannishas one of the highest usages in the NBA, I would recommend having at least twoeven three Milwaukee players in your lineup.

MikeConley – Value – ($5,300)

He isn’t exactly valued, but I don’t think you need a value on this NBA slate as I’m not spending up on Trae Young even though he is at home. Conley seems to finally have settled in with the Jazz, he has at least 30 minutes in five out of his last six games and has scored at least 25 fantasy points in all six of those games. I’m guessing VanVleet will sit again as it’s the last game of the road trip for them and they have four days off after tonight.

Shooting Guard

Donovan Mitchell – Stud – ($7,500)

Utah is only a game and a half ahead of Oklahoma City for homecourt advantagein the first round so they still have something to play for. If VanVleet sits Iwant to get some exposure to whoever Lowry isn’t guarding and I think that’s goingto be Mitchell. He consistently is around at least the 30 fantasy point mark ashe has scored at least 30 fantasy points in eight of his last ten games, onthis NBA slate I’ll take that.

Donte DiVincenzo – Value – ($4,800)

As I mentioned in the Bledsoe segment, I will likely have three Milwaukee players in my lineup and Divincenzo is one that stands out. DiVincenzo is the only nonstarter on this team to have usage of over 20 percent. He is averaging 38.28 fantasy points per 36 minutes with Giannis off the floor and he played 30 minutes in last night’s loss to the Suns. I’ll take a fantasy point per minute player on an NBA slate-like tonights.

Small Forward

Khris Middleton – Stud – ($7,600)

Middleton has the highest usage rate on the team with Giannis off thefloor at 33.6 percent and is averaging 51.8 fantasy points per 36 minutes. Heis priced up from last night slightly, but it isn’t nearly enough for a guythat shot 26 times like Middleton did last night. Middleton is facing thesecond slowest team in the NBA but his usage and price should be enough toovercome that.

Cam Reddish – Value – ($4,500)

Reddish left the last game the Hawks played and didn’t return due to cramping so I assume he should be good to go here tonight. This play becomes a lot better if De’Andre Hunter sits out as Reddish should have very safe minutes, but I like him regardless as Atlanta has nothing to play for at this point so the rookie should get playing time. Charlotte is the seventh-worst team in the NBA in terms of Defensive efficiency.

Power Forward

Pascal Siakam – Stud – ($8,700)

The Raptors are slowly getting back to full strength as they near the end of this road trip. Utah has been exploited by bigger power forwards this season with Bojan Bogdanovic playing there and he’s smaller for a power forward. An example of that is Julius Randle just went off for 32 real points against Utah five days ago. It wouldn’t surprise me if Gasol sat out the second half of this back to back as he is returning from a hamstring injury. Even if Gasol doesn’t sit with VanVleet of the floor Siakam leads the team in usage at just over 30 percent.

Pj Washington – Mid-tier – ($5,600)

The Hornets season is a loss at this point and that is resulting in them taking a nice look at their rookie big man. Washington has played at least 30 minutes in six straight games now and has scored at least 25 fantasy points in all six of those games. The Hawks are a fantastic positional matchup as they have given up the most fantasy points to centers and the second-most fantasy points to power forwards this NBA season. Washington also had played the Hawks once this year and had a 41 fantasy point performance.

Center

Nikola Jokic – Stud – ($9,500)

I only like Jokic tonight because of how tonight’s NBA slate is looking, there really aren’t many players to take up salary. He does get the fastest-paced team in the NBA tonight who will be without their best player. You must remember as well that Giannis is the Bucks best rebounder as Brook Lopez is only averaging four and a half rebounds per game. A fast-paced team without their best defender and rebounder seems like a good spot to take Jokic at home.

Dewayne Dedmond – Value – ($4,100)

If De’Andre Hunter is forced to miss this game I will love Dedmond in this spot. If Hunter is out, I don’t think the Hawks will slide Collins down to the five as much because the only other power forward, they have listed is Vince Carter. Charlotte has also given up the third-most fantasy points to centers in the NBA this season, not to mention they are ranked as the seventh-worst in defensive efficiency.

We have an unusually small three-game NBA slate for a Monday night and it is unusual, to say the least. With Giannis being out on this small slate, Bledsoe and Middleton could be pushing 90 percent ownership as they were around 70 percent in the contests I played last night and that was an eight-game slate. All these games are around the same total and are relatively close in terms of the spread which is another reason why this slate Is unusual. Currently, we only have Fred VanVleet and De’Andre Hunter that have a questionable tag. Be sure to check into the Discord chat rooms as me and the rest of the WinDaily staff will be there to follow any injury news and further breakdown our top plays. Thanks for reading my article and good luck!
