DFS Strategy


I’ll be focusing on my core plays for the 3/31 DFS Tournament for DraftKings CounterStrike CS GO slate.  This is focused around DraftKings ONLY and my focus on what I plan to do with my 3 lineups tomorrow!

Here’s a brief crash course on CS GO and what it entails.

I’m taking this from our boy, JT, but here’s the run down. I fixed some grammar issues plus added some things!

The main thing you need to understand is the DK scoring system and how these players get points. A kill is +1.5 FP, an assist is +1FP, and death is -1pt FP. Entry kill is +.5 FP (like first blood in LOL). 1v2 Clutch = if there is one guy remaining on team protecting the bomb or vice versa and that player kills both remaining players he gets an extra +1FP on top of his +2FP for killing both players. 1v3 Clutch = extra 2 points on top of +3FPs for killing all 3. 1v4 clutch = +3 extra points plus +4 for killing the remaining four players. 1v5 clutch = +5 extra points plus 5FPs for killing all five players. Quad kill is when you get four kills in any specific round (no order needed, just four in general) +3 points additional. Ace is when one player kills entire opposing team by himself plus 5 additional FPs. Biggest thing to look at is K/D ratio, which is Kill/Death ratio so find the person with the best kill/death ratio.

With CS GO, a player score gets multiplied by 30 and divided by rounds played. As long as a player has a good K/D ratio. They can be a great play. It’s a weird stat that gets you a ton of point so we emphasize K/D ratio even more. Stacking is not as relevant in CS GO as it is in LOL. It does not matter if player is on winning or losing team. The K/D ratio is used at even par for everyone (best KD ratio, = best fantasy player) if you are going to stack two teams, they are going to limit the upside of those players. I would do a stack of 2 at MAX. Best scenario is no matter what team, you need to find the best K/D ratio and play them. I forgot to mention if a player gets 10 kills a game (random) but dies 8 times, they have a K/D ratio of 2. Find those guys with the highest K/D raio.

I feel like the best stacks thus far are 2-2-1-1 stacks. Below is my plan for the 3.31 CS GO slate tomorrow.

Teams I am FULLY FADING in MME and Main Builds

  • VP – Only person in my player pool is JAME b/c of his K/D ratio , but this team is pretty rough.
  • CPHF – Fade. TeSeS and JT are OK plays , but I think i just lean TeSeS only.
  • NV – Full fade. They aren’t that good.
  • MIBR – They aren’t in the best form lately. I think I’ll pass on this entire squad. Risky because they are one of the best ranked teams in the world. I’ll take my chances

I’m focusing on 3 teams for my main lines today. That being said, I’ll list who’s in my player pool below, but I will have a mix of 4 teams. Those with the highest K/D ratios.

Mouz

  • ropz – +16 K/D his last 3 matches. Probably their best player in a great matchup.
  • frozen – +14 K/D his last 2 matches and one of the more consistent players on this team.
  • chrisJ – He’s a MAYBE. In one line max. He usually either puts up a +10 or +15 K/D ratio one match than -10 K/D the next. He isn’t very consistent.

Cloud9 –

  • Sonic – +17 K/D in his last 3 and in a killer matchup. He will most likely be in ALL 3 of my lineups.
  • oSee – +38 K/D in his last 3 and similarly in a killer matchup as Sonic. Again, I will have in all 3 lineups.

HAVU – nV isn’t very good and I think this is a sneaky stack for HAVU to have a ton of positive K/D. Only really targeting these guys as one offs. Chance I only go for ZOREE and sLowi only.

  • ZOREE
  • doto
  • sLowi

100 Thieves – Probably my favorite group of guys. Coming off a tough loss vs. TL. I think they bounce back. Gratisfaction will only be in 1 lineup and that’s about it, but I’m a big fan of jks and jkaem

  • jkaem
  • Gratisfaction
  • jks

With ESports DFS, I recommend you LEAVE SOME MONEY ON THE TABLE. Leave $500 or below and be different and win the $50k (if I don’t)

I’ll be focusing on my core plays for the 3/30 DFS Tournament for DK LoL slate. This article is focused around DraftKings ONLY. This is what I plan to do with my 7 lineups today!

Side Note – Before we begin, I’d like to point out the last 5 nights have had a big payout to the person who has JNG or MID in the Captain. ADC at Captain was the big winner the nights before that. Focus on A M J, which is ADC, JNG, or MID at Captain. Don’t put SUP or TOP in your Captain spot.

This is a TWO gamer so feel free to be different and put JNG , TOP, SUP at Captain tonight, but again, it isn’t the ideal strategy in LPL.

Teams I am FULLY FADING in MME and Main Builds

  • OMG – Playing one of the best teams, iG. I’ll pass

I’m focusing on 3 teams for my MME and my main lines today. That being said, I’ll list who’s in my player pool below, but I will have a mix LGD and EDG with iG and that’s it. If OMG wins…. I’ll take my losses!

iG – I’ll have the majority of my lines with PUFF at Captain. I think I’ll avoid going ROOKIE at Captain and just focus on the GPP plays of THESHY and SOUTHWIND as other captain options. In order to fit a full EDG/IG stack, you need a SUP or TOP captain to make it happen. Not ideal, but it’s a 2 gamer so anything goes. For JNG, Leyan is starting for Ning AGAIN. Do NOT play Ning.

EDG – This is the favorite and I expect them to win, but I wouldn’t be surprised at a LGD upset tonight. Similar to what I mentioned above, I’m only doing iG for the other game so this full stack only works with iG with a TOP or SUP at Captain. Aodi is at TOP again and Meiko is at SUP. I’d prefer Southwind at CAP. Don’t do Meiko at Captain spot.

LGD – The full LGD stack fits perfect with iG today. I think I still lean the IG side for the Captain spot, but you could go Yuuki or Kramer at Captain with IG to be different. FenFen is starting at TOP and Killua at SUP so keep that in mind

With ESports DFS, I recommend you LEAVE SOME MONEY ON THE TABLE. Leave $500 or more, be different and take a shot to win the $50k (if I don’t)

I’ll be focusing on my core plays for the 3/26 DFS Tournament for DK LoL slate.   This is focus around DraftKings ONLY and focus on what I plan to do with my 7 lineups today!

Side Note – Before we begin, I’d like to point out the last 5 nights have had a big payout to the person who has JNG or MID in the Captain. ADC at Captain was the big winner the nights before that. Focus on A M J, which is ADC, JNG, or MID at Captain. Don’t do support and try not to put too TOP at your Captain spot.

Teams I am FULLY FADING in MME and Main Builds

  • OMG – Playing the best team in ES. I’ll pass.
  • HLE – LCK Team who is volatile with starters and subbing mid game. Too risky
  • GRF – LCK Team that is NEVER consistent with starters.
  • SB – Same as GRF. FADE
  • DRX – I believe in T1 and DRX just had a disappointing loss. I’ll pass

I’m focusing on 7 teams for my MME and my main lines today. That being said, I’ll list who’s in my player pool below, but I will have only ONE LNG line in my main line and TWO KT lines. I have KT in a ton of MME!

KT – With LCK not releasing starting lineups, I look at past games and see how many players play and who subs out mid game and what not. With KT, they are pretty consistent in their lines so I’m using them in TWO main lines. My focus is Kuro, bonO, TusiN, soHwan, and Aiming. My focus will be on Aiming and Kuro FOR SURE, but I’ll have all 5 in one line at lease.

FPX – I view FPX and ES as the two best teams in the LPL and I’m going to try to fit them into as many lines as possible. As of now, I have them in 3 of my 7 lineups. ALL of the players are in play.

ES – Like I said above, they are the best with FPX. They are all in play, but are SO EXPENSIVE. I’ll have more FPX than ES because of price and better matchup. I’ll have them in 1-2 main lines. Again, all are in play.

LNG – Veryyyyyyyy interesting, but they play ES. I’ll do one line with Asura, Maple, and Flandre. That’s it! ONE Line.

T1 – Best team in LCK and they are priced down with FPX and ES on the slate. I’m on all of them except for ELIM and CUZZ b/c who knows which one will start. Avoid the JNG position here.

JDG / RNG – Now we get down to the match that will win you a GPP. I have a ton of exposure to both teams and I think this matchup is up for grabs. It’s a close spread and by going RNG, you can go ES or FPX. With JDG, you’re limited to T1 only , but they are still a top play!

Start writing or type / to choose a block

Current Lineup Build for my 7 Lineups:

1 – 4 T1, 2 KT, FPX Team

2 – 3 T1, 3 KT, FPX Team

3 – 4 T1, 2 FPX, HLE Team (gross)

4 – 3 LNG, 3 FPX with KT Team

5 – 3 RNG, 3 ES with RNG Team

6 – 3 JDG, 3 T1 with T1 Team

7 – 3 KT, 3 JDG with KT Team

Line 1 or 2 and 3 are likely to change to get more RNG or JDG

With ESports DFS, I recommend you LEAVE SOME MONEY ON THE TABLE. Leave $500 or below and be different and win the $50k (if I don’t)

I’ll be focusing on my core plays for the 3/25 DFS Tournament for DK LoL slate.   This is focus around DraftKings ONLY and focus on what I plan to do with my 7 lineups today!

Side Note – Before we begin, I’d like to point out the last 5 nights have had a big payout to the person who has JNG or MID in the Captain. ADC at Captain was the big winner the nights before that. Focus on A M J, which is ADC, JNG, or MID at Captain. Don’t do support and try not to put too TOP at your Captain spot.

LCK – Freecs vs. SANDBOX Gaming – 3/25 DFS

Previous Meeting – Freecs 2-1 over SB

Freecs – Before writing this out, I had zero Freecs, but looking into the team and seeing how they are top 3 in this division, I’m starting to like them more. Here is my issue with the Freecs…. they sub out mid game A LOT. This makes them far from safe so to be honest, I’m not on them. I’ll let other people risk this team, but I’m not liking them no matter how good they’ve been. I will do ONE stack of 2 with them, and it’ll only be with Mystic (ADC), Fly (MID) because everyone else is risky. Play at your own risk

SB – Full FADE.

Javi’s Pick – Mystic (ADC), Fly (MID) ONLY. Everyone else is a SUB OUT risk mid game. If you’re doing 5-10 lineups, use those 2 in ONE stack only.

LPL – Dominus Esports vs. Rogue Warriors- 3/25 DFS

Previous Meeting – 0-0 This Season

DMO – Talk about a battle of some BAD TEAMS with some drama involved. See below on the drama. DMO is one of the worst teams and comes stumbling into this matchup with a 1-6 record. Want to talk about bad? Usually a team wins a game to take it to the 3rd round and they salvage some value, but DMO has been 2-0’ed 4 straight matches. They face a drama filled RW and if we believe in narratives, believe in the DMO narrative over a RW team that might be falling apart. That being said, I’m going to use their team and maybe a 2-3 team stack for ONE lineup and that’s it.

RW – Who knew that League of Legends has game fixing? Am I right?? From what I can see, they have some subs lined up for today, but that doesn’t mean that their chemistry and performance will be up to par. They are a 2 win team and also one of the worst in this league. Given their matchup, I may use them in 1-2 lineups, but I’m not feeling it too much.

Javi’s Pick – DMO – Xiye (MID), Gala (ADC), Natural (TOP) — Only if you’re doing 5-10 lineups and use in ONE line.

Javi’s Pick – RW – ZWuji (ADC), Ruby (MID), Ley (SUPPORT) – Good salary saver, and Haro (JNG). Play Haro at your OWN RISK b/c he got subbed out after game 1 last game!

Start writing or type / to choose a block

LCK – T1 vs. APK – 3/25 DFS

Previous Meeting – T1 2-0 over APK

APK – Full Fade!

T1 – Probably the best team in the LCK besides GEN and I think my top overall stack of night. Yes, the kills and total output in lower in the LCK, but there is still the chance that T1 smashes tonight with a killer matchup over APK. The last time these 2 teams faced off, T1 smashed them 2-0 with Teddy (ADC) scoring 93.1, Fakar (MID) scoring 60.0, Cuzz (JNG) scoring 79.4, Canna (TOP) scoring 81.9, and Effort (SUPPORT) scoring 71.4. Fakar is usually an 80+ point guy so I’ll say that was a little flukey and lock in T1 in a ton of lineups like I’m doing!

Javi’s Pick – ALL of T1 is in play. Love putting Fakar, Cuzz, and Teddy in the CPT spot!

LOL – Team WE vs. Suning – 3/25 DFS

WE – This is VERY interesting and from what I’m seeing, I fear they may be chalky. I think they could still go underowned because they are the underdog, but I feel they are priced too down in a winnable matchup.

SUN – These guys are priced similarly to FPX from last night, but they are far from a team like FPX. It seems like they are on fire, but they are too expensive so I won’t have much exposure. This matchup should go 3 games and I wouldn’t be surprised if WE wins. The good thing about SUN is they will be lower owned because of their price tag.

Javi’s Pick – WE – Almost all these guys are in plays for stack. I will probably do TWO lineups with them and TWO with SUN. For WE, I’ll be on Jiumeng (ADC), beishang (JNG), Teacherma (MID) with a mix of Missing (SUPPORT). I’m going to fade Morgan (TOP).

Javi’s Pick – SUN – Overpriced, but all in play. I’ll do 2 lineups and have exposure to all 5. Love if lower owned.

Start writing or type / to choose a block

LCK – GEN G vs. DAMWON Gaming – 3/25 DFS

Previous Meeting – GEN 2-0 over DWG

DWG – Didn’t look half bad versus KT last night, but FULL FADE for me.

GEN – They were kind of a let down yesterday, but I’m going back to the well with them. Every single play scored over 70 except one the first time they played against DWG.

Javi’s Pick – GEN is all in play! Focus on the MID, JNG, and ADC at Captain like I mentioned earlier.

Start writing or type / to choose a block

LGD vs. Vici Gaming – 3/25 DFS

LGD – We come down to another match of 2 teams in the bottom 5. VG is projected as the “favorite”, but again, I like the LGD side as well. I don’t think I’ll get to 2 lineups, but anything can happen in this matchup. VG has been better so I lean VG here, but LGD could be sneaky. Remember, LGD did bear TES last week so ANYTHING CAN HAPPEN!

VG – Enter VG , the team who is 1-5 in their past 6 games and priced as if they are a top team. They have taken it to the third game in 3 of their past 4 and the only reason they didnt take it to a third in that other match is because they had a 2-0 upset. I’ll have 2 VG lineups!

Javi’s Pick – LGD – One stack of Peanut (JNG), Yuuki (MID), Kramer (ADC).

Javi’s Pick – VG – I’m only really on Forge (MID) and iBoy (ADC), but if you want the 3 person stack then go ahead with Aix (JNG).

Current Lineup Build for my 7 Lineups:

1 – 3 WE , 3 GEN with T1 Team

2 – 4 SN, 2 GEN with DOM Team

3 – 3 T1, 3 SN with LGD Team

4 – 3 GEN, 3 T1 with SN Team

5 – 3 GEN, 3 T1 AGAIN with SN Team AGAIN

6 – 3 VG , 3 GEN with VG Team

7 – 3 WE , 3 T1 with GEN Team

With ESports DFS, I recommend you LEAVE SOME MONEY ON THE TABLE. Leave $500 or below and be different and win the $50k (if I don’t)

Shockingly, the world of sports, other than MMA and some Soccer, has shut down due to the Coronavirus. This is a good time to reflect and analyze what has worked in the past and tweak where needed to hit the ground running when everything returns. For NASCAR DFS, the preparation and execution of lineups with potential to WIN GPP’s is priority number one.

There are 3 approaches I use in NASCAR DFS depending on my confidence that week and the bankroll I am willing to put at risk. I love to attack the superspeedways like Talledega, Michigan, Pocono, and Daytona. I get very aggressive on these tracks and will throw in 150 plus lineups most weeks. Next for me are the 1.0-1.5 mile tracks, especially those that a dominator can crush. Finally, I tend to avoid very short tracks like Bristol or Martinsville and any road courses. These are just my personal preferences after analyzing years of results.

Win Daily Sports is committed to bringing its members and subscribers fresh content daily for as long as the professional sports leagues remain on hiatus. Our goal is to continue to focus on how to be better DFS and Sports Gamblers by teaching you how to do the little things better just like the pros. Sign up at this link and stay prepared!

Now that my home state of Michigan has opened sportsbooks, I will be playing many more WIN bets and hopefully “Top-5” and Driver Matchups depending on what is offered. This is where I excel. The Westgate Super Book in Las Vegas is where I have made most of my profit over the years betting 4 driver matchups that could also be parlayed. I can only hope Detroit will follow suit with some encouragement.

As for NASCAR DFS, my #1 look is always towards past performances at that track. If I can latch onto a Kyle Busch, Kevin Harvick, or Joey Logano who dominates a track, I will do so especially if they qualify near the top. I have no problem being 75% plus owned on a dominator. My next look is at the practice sessions. My thought the process is first done they have speed and second, can they maintain that speed over a number of laps.

I will put the practice session in the back of my mind as I watch qualifying. Obviously, if a potential dominator qualifies badly or is forced to the back for an issue, they instantly become chalk. You cannot avoid this. It just becomes a 5 player contest instead of 6 on DraftKings when this occurs. At times I have had the same 2 drivers in over 75% of my lineups if we have a situation with a dominator at the front and back of the starting grid.

Once qualifying has ended, I then rank the entire field based on potential and value. I personally like to create lineups by hand one at a time and check my driver usage along the way to make sure it matches my rankings. I can usually do this up to 40-50 lineups. If I am going for it that week, I will use an optimizer, entering my personal usage percentages from my ranking. While I do read a lot of articles during the week, especially from experts at the track that week, I am confident enough to override others’ opinions for my own. Many times, my driver usage is vastly different from what you will see in NASCAR GPP’s.

The key is to WIN a contest. Usually, you are splitting the top prize, but it can still pay off very well. Hitting the nuts or playing small field single or small MAX contests are the only way to make money. Diversity and aggressiveness have worked well for me, especially at the superspeedways.

I’ll be focusing on my core and GPP plays for the 2/20 Tournament for DFS PGA.   I’m running a similar format to Sia and want to provide some insight into my 5-10 builds this weekend. This is focus around DraftKings ONLY.

10k and above – 2/19 DFS

Rory Mcllroy – Rory is one of the best golfers in the game right now and is ranked #1 in the world. He has FIVE straight top 5 finishes in his last FIVE events. It’s 5 for 5 in top 5 and my number one golfer this weekend.

Hideki Matsuyama – He has four top 15 finishes in his past 5 events and is also one of the hottest golfers in the game. He is due for a win and in top form. He does have two top 25 finishes in the 3 times he’s played here and ranks top 10 in all golfing categories across the board. He has struggled in putting and is more middle of the pack in regards to putting, but still locking him in a ton of lineups.

9k and above – 2/19 DFS

Adam Scott – Rule 1 in PGA DFS is don’t play the winner from the previous week, but I’m breaking this rule this weekend. Adam Scott is notorious for winning back to back events in the past and is in tip top form to win this tournament. If the broom putter is back out and he continues his dominant play, he could easily win this tournament once again. I like the form that Bryson DeChambeau, but his poor course history here worries me.

Xander Schauffele – As Sia mentioned, Xander’s form and specifically his ball-striking have been great.  This is what I’m targeting plus he ranks top 10 in all golfing categories for me and has great course history!

8k and above – 2/19 DFS

Louis Oosthuizen – Listen, this guy is destroying the European tour and I’m riding the hot streak here. He is on fire and I just can’t fade him until I see regression.

Paul Casey – Again stealing Sia’s thunder, but “Great course history (3rd, 12th, and 166th) but recent history hasn’t been great which should keep ownership lower than many of the sexier names in this range like Sergio, Morikawa, Woodland, and Bubba, all of whom I will be fading.” His ATG and putting has been poor, but he’s been doing well in his past two tournaments. He needs to avoid the one day debacles that he continues to run into. No bueno if he does!

Bubba Watson – Bubba…. OOOOOOO Bubba. He missed two straight five foot putts to miss the cut and broke my heart. He cost me thousands, but let’s move on! He is going to have low ownership because of last weekend and his course history here. I like him as a sneaky bounce back play this week.

7k and above – 2/19 DFS

Abraham Ancer – The Golf Narrative hasnt worked much this year, but Ancer is in top form and even though he has poor course history, he’s one of two Mexicans on the course. I believe he will bounce back because of his recent poor experience here and he has been playing unbelievably. He might be higher owned this weekend, but I love the play.

Rafa Cabrera-Bello – This is far from a sexy play and might be more owned than I want him to be, but he has great course history and he’s similar to Bubba Watson in regards to playing very, very well in courses that he normally plays well at. With multiple top 20 finishes here, I like RCB as another bounce back candidate with a top 10 finish here!

6k and above – 2/19 DFS

Erik Van Rooyen – He burned us last weekend with missing the cut on day 2 after a solid day 1. He’s been “meh” here in the past, but he’s playing some good golf lately, but his approach to green is worrisome. Given the small greens, he might be in a better spot, but this is a riskier play in my eyes.

Carlos Ortiz – I’m once again stealing Sia’s notes on this…. sorry Sia! “Ortiz is from Mexico but has no competitive history on this course.  While that’s not ideal, he has made the cut in 4 out of his last 5 events and that includes top 30 finishes in his last two. ” Narrative here!!

I’ll be focusing on my core and GPP plays for the 1/3 DFS Wild Card Weekend for NFL and take a deep dive for each position along with my favorite value plays.   

My Core and Value Plays for ALL Builds :

Sexy 6 – 1/3 DFS

  • Michael Thomas, WR, NO – 1/3 DFS
    • Michael Thomas is my first player for all my tournaments as I start to build out my lineups. He faces a Minnesota pass defense that is highly overrated and defends the tight end pretty well, but struggle in defending the WR. Lock in MT as he’s in line for a huge game this weekend.
  • Alvin Kamara, RB, NO – 1/3 DFS
    • All this workload management for Kamara has led up to these next few weeks. He has been on fire the past few weeks and I think he continues this week against a suspect Minnesota defense.
  • Devin Singletary, RB, BUF – 1/3 DFS
    • Load up my alma mater RB this weekend! Devin Singletary hailing from Boca Raton, FL and the greatest college in the world, FAU Owls. On a serious note, I feel like Houston is falling apart offensively and defensively and have limped into the playoffs. I think the Bills win this one outright even while on the road. Go Owls Go!
  • Julian Edelman, WR, NE – 1/3 DFS
    • It’s the playoffs so this means the Patriots are back. Even though they look horrendous right now, you can’t deny that it’s Tom Brady SZN. I really hope the Titans win outright, but I think the Pats go to work and Edelman is the main reason for it. Titans secondary has been better, but Edelman is feeling better than he has the past few weeks and should smash this Titans secondary.
  • Buffalo Bills DST – 1/3 DFS
    • Not ideal to run a Defense as a Sexy Six pick, but I think the Texans O Line is one of the worst and the Bills should get to Watson quite a few times.
  • John Brown, WR, BUF – 1/3 DFS
    • I’m having a tough time whether to choose John Brown or Josh Allen. Given your build, I want to leave QB off the Sexy Six list. As you construct your lineup, make sure to stack QB and WR so if you can use Drew Brees with MT or Josh Allen with John Brown, I’d say go for it. John Brown is in a great spot against a bottom tier defense in the Texans. Lock him in!

Sexy 6 is the basis for all my builds in both cash and GPP builds. I will most likely lock in a minimum of FOUR for every contest. Due to salary constraints, I doubt I can get all six, but I recommend at least four or five of the recommended players.

I’ll be focusing on my core and GPP plays for the 12/20 DFS NBA for each position along with my favorite value plays.   

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.

My Core and Value Plays for ALL Builds :

Sexy 6 – 12/20 DFS

  • Chris Boucher, PF/C – 12/20 DFS
    • Siakam and Gasol are BOTH OUT for the Raptors today so enter Chris Boucher. When Marc Gasol or Serge Ibaka was out for multiple games last time, Boucher would smash value easily. It seems now he may even start with both out. Lock him in EVERY lineup except one if you’re doing ten or more.
  • Serge Ibaka or Rondae Hollis-Jefferson – 12/20 DFS
    • Again, Siakam and Gasol are out so both will get extended runs. I hate Ibaka’s price tag, but he faces a terrible Washington team. Lock in Ibaka if you can afford it, but I prefer RHJ for his price tag.
  • Kyle Lowry, PG – 12/20 DFS
    • Someone needs to score on the Raptors. If Fred VanVleet is IN today, I’ll probably do 33% Lowry, 33% VanVleet, and the rest to have BOTH in my lineup.
  • Kemba Walker, PG – 12/20 DFS
    • Celtics are pretty banged up and Hayward may be OUT again. If he is, I’d lock in Kemba with Jaylen Brown or Jayson Tatum. If Hayward is IN, I’d just lock in Kemba. He’s still priced too cheap.
  • Andre Drummond, C – 12/20 DFS
    • The banned from our DFS playlist Blake Griffin is doubtful tonight. I don’t like the matchup against the Celtics, but the Celtics big men can’t defend someone like Drummond, who needs to smash in order to keep this game from being a blowout.
  • Jimmy Butler or Bam Adebayo – 12/20 DFS
    • They face New York. If you’re playing one, I’d recommend doing a second lineup and play the other. The End!

I’ve officially started a DO NOT PLAY list and Blake Griffin AND Jonathan Isaac are on that list. DO NOT PLAY them until further notice!

Sexy 6 is the basis for all my builds in both cash and GPP builds. I will most likely lock in a minimum of FOUR for every contest. Due to salary constraints, I doubt I can get all six, but I recommend at least four or five of the recommended players.

I’ll be focusing on my core and GPP plays for the 12/18 DFS NBA for each position along with my favorite value plays.

My Core and Value Plays for ALL Builds :

Sexy 6 – 12/18 DFS

  • Davis Bertans, SF/PF – 12/18 DFS
    • Hachimura is officially out for the next five games so this means the door has opened for Bertans. I think he will be extra chalky tonight, especially on FD so I don’t hate the play on DK since he’s priced up on that site.
  • Ian Mahinmi, C (FD Only) – 12/18 DFS
  • Tristan Thompson, C (DK Only) – 12/18 DFS
    • Center is my least favorite position tonight, especially on DK, but there is one that stands out and it is far from my favorite play. Thompson is not very trustworthy in DFS, but he faces Charlotte we love targeting the big man against Chicago or Charlotte. Mahinmi is priced too low on FD still and he faces Chicago.
  • Jeff Teague, PG – 12/18 DFS
    • Karl Anthony-Towns may be OUT and if he is, I’m locking in Teague AND Wiggins, but as of now, let’s think he’s playing tonight. Teague is on the second team and is thriving in this role. They face one of the worst defenses today in the Pelicans and they are on the second night of a back to back after going to OT last night. I’m locked in on Teague!
  • Bradley Beal, SG – 12/18 DFS
    • The Wizards are beat up and someone has to score against this terrible Chicago team. His usage has gone up and I expect him to go big on BOTH sites.
  • Jalen Brunson, PG – 12/18 DFS
    • I don’t like the price tag now, but he’s starting and crushing the opportunity. I think I may change him off of the Sexy Six tag by end of the day, but let’s keep him here for now.
  • Pascal Siakam, SF on FD / PF/C on DK
    • VanVleet is doubtful so bump up to Siakam. He’s another one I may remove the tag off of before lock.

I’ve officially started a DO NOT PLAY list and Blake Griffin is on that list. DO NOT PLAY him until further notice!

Sexy 6 is the basis for all my builds in both cash and GPP builds. I will most likely lock in a minimum of FOUR for every contest. Due to salary constraints, I doubt I can get all six, but I recommend at least four or five of the recommended players.
