NBA DFS Core Plays And Best Bets For Feb 29

Tony Cutillo
written by Tony Cutillo

Back-to-back slates where we smashed the best bets posted in the NBA DFS article. We get another six-game slate on DraftKings and I’ll break down my core plays and favorite game to attack. On top of that, two more bets will be posted. Let us continue the streak and keep the green rolling in.

NBA DFS – Core Plays

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander $10,700 – 55.96 DK Points – 5.23 Value Rating

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has an amazing matchup tonight versus the San Antonio Spurs as they struggle against point guards. Coming in as the second-highest projected player on the slate, Gilgeous-Alexander should have a fairly easy run to exceed expectations. He’s currently averaging 31.8 points, 6.6 assists, and 5.6 rebounds per game in his last five games. He has recorded 30 or more points in those last five games also.

With the defense of the San Antonio Spurs against point guards, they are allowing them to average 26.4 points, 8.9 assists, and 6.7 rebounds per game. Allowing point guards to flirt with the double-double bonus. Also for Oklahoma City, this is a slight pace-up spot as the Spurs average 105.1 possessions per game compared to Thunder’s 104 possessions per game.

Bol Bol $3,900 – 24.18 DK Points – 6.20 Value Rating

Bol Bol comes in as a strong value play and his two most recent games will show why. Versus Houston last Friday, Bol recorded 25 points with 14 rebounds and then recorded 11 points and four rebounds versus the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday. Now with a four-day break, Bol Bol will be refreshed and ready to keep up the consistent play that he has found.

The big hang-up right now is with Jusuf Nurkic, who has the probable tag as of this morning. If things change for the worse and he moves to questionable, Bol Bol will see a huge boost in projection, value, and ownership. However, it would be ownership that I’d want to eat in the lineup.

Chet Holmgren $7,900 – 40.94 DK points – 5.18 Value Rating

While Victor Wembanyama is the higher projected player between the two young stars in this matchup, Chet Holmgren sits at a nice price tag. Sitting at $7,900, Holmgren gets a San Antonio Spurs defense that struggles also against some bigs. They currently allow them to average 26.5 points, 16 rebounds, and 3.7 assists per game. We should get Chet to pay off his price tag but also exceed it.

There will be a double-double bonus upside also as he has averaged 20.4 points and 10 rebounds in his past five games while averaging 30.9 minutes. Overall for the season, his average has been 17.1 points, 7.8 rebounds, and 2.7 assists with a usage rate of 21.5%. He does come second when it comes to Shai Gilgeous-Alexander but the duo can make a dominating impact tonight versus the San Antonio Spurs, plus with Holmgren’s price tag, it leaves room for more alongside Bol Bol.

NBA DFS – Game To Target

Oklahoma City Thunder (-625) versus San Antonio Spurs (+455) – Total 238.5 Points
Odds and Total Points are taken from the DraftKings Sportsbook.

Following my core plays, you’ll notice two of the three plays are from this game. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander and Chet Holmgren make for strong plays. Overall, there are many spots in this game that we can look at. The other pay-up spot is Victor Wembanyama who is at the price tag of $10.100 on DraftKings. Both he and Gilgeous-Alexander are two of the top three projected players on this slate.

While it is the second-highest total out of the six games on the slate, the pace of play makes for a great spot to attack. Oklahoma City plays at a pace of 104 possessions per game while the San Antonio Spurs average 105.1 possessions per game. With that, we have a few salary-saver spots to look at from this game also. Lu Dort comes in at $4,400 while Tre Jones and Jeremy sit at $5,000 and $5,1000. The game could get out of hand but if so, I believe SGA and Holmgren still can pay off their price tag, especially Chet sitting at $7,900.

NBA DFS – Best Bets

Draymond Green over 0.5 3-PT Made -125 (FD Sportsbook)

We’re going to continue riding the hot 3-point hand of Draymond Green. If you checked out the article on Tuesday (February 27th), we played the same prop bet for Green. He has now made at least one three-point shot in six straight games while taking at least two attempts in four of his last five. The New York Knicks do allow bigs to average 2.6 made 3-point shots per game also. overall, our NBA DFS Player Prop Model has this bet at a 162.58% edge and we’re not passing that up.

Alperen Sengun over 0.5 Blocked Shots -115 (bet365)

Moving on to the fifth-highest edge-rated bet is going to be Alperen Sengun over 0.5 blocked shots which sits at a 55.30% edge. Sengun has at least one blocked shot in four of his last five games. He’s averaging one blocked shot in his last five games and 0.8 on the season. The Phoenix Suns do allow 1.8 blocked shots per game for opposing centers so Alperen Sengun should have his opportunities to hit his prop.

NBA DFS Top Targets And Betting Plays For Feb. 28

Tony Cutillo
written by Tony Cutillo

We went 2/2 last night as Draymond Green cashed his 0.5 3-PT Made total and Max Struss blew his 8.5 points total out of the water. It’s time to get it rolling with another NBA DFS slate and we have six games tonight on DraftKings. Below, you’ll find my core plays plus two of my favorite bets.

NBA DFS – Top Targets

Domantas Sabonis $10,300 – 52.48 DK Points – 5.09 Value

We get a monstrous matchup once again with Domantas Sabonis facing off against Nikola Jokic for the fourth time this season. Sabonis has averaged 18 points, 15 rebounds, and eight assists in three games facing Denver. His dominating play has continued in his last five games where he is averaging 21.6 points, 14.2 rebounds, and 10.4 assists. He should be in line for a double-double at a minimum while flirting with a triple-double bonus.

This is going to be a good game to target as two of the three games have hit 240 and 241 total points. On top of that, the Sacramento Kings play at a faster pace, averaging 103.9 possessions per game while Denver averages just 100 possessions. Domantas Sabonis is the fourth-highest projected player on the slate and while Nikola Jokic does project for more, the ownership will be lower for Sabonis with just as much upside.

Norman Powell $4,800 – 30.12 DK Points – 6.27 value

Norman Powell and the Los Angeles Clippers are in a huge pace-up spot tonight versus the Los Angeles Lakers. While they play at a slower pace with 101.4 possessions per game, the Lakers are averaging 104.9. Powell also comes in as the second-highest projected value play with a rating of 6.27. He has found success versus this Lakers team this season already.

In three games versus the Lakers, Powell has averaged 14.3 points, 2.3 rebounds, and 1.7 assists while averaging 28.9 minutes per game. With that, the Lakers have also struggled versus guards, allowing them to average 24.2 points, 7.1 rebounds, and 6 assists per game. Norman Powell will be a key piece to get to better payup spots like Domantas Sabonis or Nikola Jokic tonight.

Kyrie Irving $9,300 – 48.47 DK Points – 5.21 Value Rating

The last team we played a point guard versus Toronto, Tyrese Haliburton disappointed us. I don’t see that happening tonight with Kyrie Irving. With Dallas and Toronto having the second-highest point total, you’ll want a piece of the action. Irving has been playing well as of late. In his last five games, he has averaged 29.6 points, 6.6 rebounds, and 3.8 assists. On the season, he has played consistently, averaging 25.8 points, 5.3 assists, and 5.2 rebounds with a usage rate of 29%.

The obvious piece in this matchup though is Luka Doncic who is hard to pass up. While there would need to be some strong value plays to open by lock time, pairing Kyrie Irving with Doncic wouldn’t be a bad route. It would just be a nearly impossible route and a true punt with scrubs and stars lineup. Doncic and Nikola Jokic are priced high and for good reason which makes Domantas Sabonis the best next pay-up spot to pair with Kyrie Irving.

NBA DFS – Top Bets

Get access to our NBA DFS Player Prop Model here and find the best edge in the industry! Example from yesterday below. Click the image for today’s updated model…………..

Santi Aldama over 12.5 Points + Rebounds -120 (Bet365)

Santi Aldama has found success this season versus Minnesota and is averaging 12 points, 7.3 rebounds, and 2.7 assists in three games. Aldama is projected to do damage once again as he’s projected for 17.34 points and rebounds tonight. Both teams do play at a slower pace and if Minnesota is short-handed once again, Santi Aldama may have an easier route to his total.

Evan Mobley over 0.5 steals -130 (Bet365)

Evan Mobley is a low-total stealing machine. On the season he is averaging almost 1 steal per game and in his last five, he has recorded at least one steal in four of them. Getting to face Chicago once again, they allow opposing centers to average 1.1 steals per game. Plus, Mobley secured one steal and block in their first meeting.

NASCAR DFS Pit Stop: Truck Series from Richmond 9/10/20

Matt Vecchio
written by Matt Vecchio

Welcome to the NASCAR DFS Pit Stop for Thursday night’s Truck Series race from Richmond Raceway. Richmond is a short track race which means we have a good amount of dominator points to be earned here. With 250 laps, we have 187.5 dominator points available on Thursday night and I will be trying to maximize those points. There are a few guys in the top tier that should lead a ton of laps on Thursday and we will want to find those plays to pair with our typical place differential plays to maximize our points. There is one driver I really like imparticular on Thursday for the win and dominator points, but you will need to read on to see who that is

NASCAR DFS: Dominators

Sheldon Creed ($11,500)

Starting Position: 12th

Creed is the highest priced driver on the slate Thursday night and rightfully so. In this last 4 races in the Truck Series, Creed has won half of those races. Ironically both of those Creed wins came with him starting outside the top 10, which is where he starts on Thursday. Creed is the top cash play on the slate, but will be in my lineups as well (I play GPP only if you didn’t already know)

Brett Moffitt ($9,600)

Starting Position: 4th

Moffitt is the driver I was talking about in the open. I think Moffitt could lead 100 laps on Thursday night and finally get his first win of the season. Moffitt has finished in the top 10 in five straight races as well as leading laps in 4 of those 5 races. Moffitt is my pick to win this race Thursday night and will be the drive I have the most exposure too

Other Options (listed in order of preference): Chandler Smith ($9,800), David Ragan ($10,400), Christian Eckes ($10,100)

NASCAR DFS: Mid Tier

Zane Smith ($9,000)

Starting Position: 9th

Zane Smith is one of the hottest drivers in the Truck series right after Sheldon Creed. In the last seven truck races, Smith has two wins, and five top 10’s. Smith has also led at least 45 laps in three of those seven races as well.

Sam Mayer ($8,800)

Starting Position: 25th

Mayer is the top place differential play on the slate for me. He ran well, including leading 24 laps at Gateway earlier this season and he should run similarly again on Thursday. Mayer has only run two Truck Series races this season, but he has finished no worse than 15th in either race, including 4th at Gateway.

Tyler Ankrum ($7,800)

Starting Position: 11th

Ankrum is one of the drivers on the bubble for the last playoff spot in this series and will try to push for the win I believe. Ankrum needs points so they will be taking chances in this race which means he is not safe for those playing cash games, he is purely a GPP only. In his last 5 races, Ankrum has not finished worse than 12th and has three top 10’s in that stretch. I know his upside is limited but he will be lower owned then most drivers around him in price.

Other Options: Todd Gilliland ($9,200), Grant Enfinger ($8,300), Trevor Bayne ($7,900)

NASCAR DFS: Value Tier Rankings

  1. Carson Hocevar – $7,200 – P30
  2. Spencer Boyd – $5,400 – P26
  3. Tanner Gray – $7,400 – P19
  4. Jordan Anderson – $6,100 – P23
  5. Danny Bohn – $5,900 – P18

NASCAR DFS Pit Stop: Truck Series from Daytona Road Course 8/16/20

Matt Vecchio
written by Matt Vecchio

Welcome to the NASCAR DFS Pit Stop for Sunday afternoons Sunoco 159 from the Daytona Road Course. This is the first time the NASCAR Truck Series has been to this course, and only the second-ever race here (Saturday’s Xfinity Series). This is another low dominator point race with only 44 laps, so we are again looking for place differential plays and finishing position.

This race has a plethora of invaders who are road course experts with the majority of them priced up at the top. Like we saw on Saturday we can expect a lot of cautions and spin-outs leading to damaged trucks. After how I saw Saturday’s race play out I am recommending playing only GPP contests and also playing very light.

NASCAR DFS: Dominators

Like we had on Saturday, we have some drivers at the top price tier that are complete unknowns to the majority of casual race fans. Three of these drivers are priced right at the top and are all top plays on this slate. They will all be high owned because of where they start, but they as close to must play as possible. I would rank them, based on upside and road course expertise as follows:

  1. Alex Tagliani – $10,800 – P21 – Tagliani is a road course expert and is driving the KBM #51, the truck Kyle drives when he races in the series
  2. Mike Skeen – $10,200 – P38
  3. Kris Wright – $10,500 – P26

Parker Kligerman ($9,600)

Starting Position: 16th

Kligerman is another road course expert who is just below the three drivers mentioned above. Sunday’s field of drivers is not deep with great road course drivers so Kligerman is definitely someone we can see move up into the top 5.

NASCAR DFS: Mid Tier

Stewart Friesen ($8,800)

Starting Position: 22nd

Friesen hasn’t had the best luck of late, but he is an experienced driver who has had some decent luck on road courses. He has two top 10 finishes at the Canadian Tire road course, so he can definitely get around at these tracks. Friesen has place differential upside as well starting 22nd.

Raphael Lessard ($7,700)

Starting position: 10th

Lessard doesn’t have a ton of experience as a 19 year old rookie in the Truck Series. He does own a top 10 finish at the Canadian Tire Road Course though, so he has potential to finish well here. Lessard starts 10th, so upside is limited, but his price isn’t too high where he cant make value.

Other Options: Brett Moffitt ($9,300), Todd Gilliland ($8,200)

NASCAR DFS: Value Tier Rankings

  1. Bryan Collyer – $5,300 – P34
  2. Spencer Davis – $6,900 – P31
  3. Mark Smith – $4,800 – P35
  4. Roger Reuse – $5,000 – P37
  5. Bobby Kennedy $4,900 – P33
  6. Scott Lagasse Jr. – $6,400 – P30

NASCAR DFS Pit Stop: Trucks Series Kansas Speedway 7/24/20

rmferenc@gmail.com
written by rmferenc@gmail.com

Welcome to the NASCAR DFS Pit Stop for Friday night’s Truck Series race from Kansas Speedway! This is the first of two truck races this weekend as they will get right back at it Saturday afternoon.

Friday night we have the Blu-Emu Maximum Pain Relief 200 with the green flag scheduled to drop at 7:15 EDT for 134 laps and with only 100.5 dominator points available Friday night they will be at a premium.

NASCAR DFS: Dominators

Ross Chastain ($11,000)

Starting Position: 11th

Ross Chastain is only running one the two Truck races this weekend and this is it. Chastain has been mildly successful on 1.5-mile tracks this season with three top 10 finishes in just 5 races this season. Coming into this weekend, Chastain has four straight top 10 finishes, and five total in 7 races this season. Chastain is a potential dominator, but I think the next guy will be the dominator…

Austin Hill ($10,300)

Starting Position: 6th

Hill has been the best driver in the Truck Series this season (full-time drivers) and will look to dominate another race. Only Christian Eckes ($8,900) has led more laps than Hill on 1.5-mile tracks with 97 led to the 91 of Hill. I don’t know that Hill wins this race, but I do anticipate him picking up a good portion of the dominator points available.

Matt Crafton ($10,000)

Starting Position: 17th

Matt Crafton is not going to fill up the dominator points on Friday but he will pay off his salary in place differential like he has the previous two weeks. Crafton started 14th and 15th respectively in the last two races and finished 3rd in both. If Crafton can come home with a similar finish from Kansas we will be more than happy with that performance.

Other Options: Johnny Sauter ($11,300), Brandon Jones ($10,600)

NASCAR DFS: Mid Tier

Christian Eckes ($8,900)

Starting position: 1st

Eckes is on the pole for Friday night’s race and there’s a good chance he is our leader for the first portion of this race. Last week at Texas Eckes gave Kyle Busch a scare early on but ended up second behind his boss. Eckes’ 2nd place finish last week was his fourth top 10 in 6 races.

Sheldon Creed ($8,400)

Starting Position: 10th

Creed earned his first win of the season two weeks ago in Kentucky in a rain-shortened race. In 2020, Creed has been one of the best 1.5-mile drivers with 3 top 10’s, two top 5’s, and his win. Creed is a driver who, if everything works out for him, could lead the majority of laps.

Zane Smith ($8,000)

Starting Position: 7th

Zane Smith pushed Kyle Busch in the Texas race last week and showed that he can hang with the big boys. Smith ended up 19th in what can be seen as a disappointment based on how well he ran collecting 23 fastest laps and 26 laps led. Smith has been successful while still looking for his fist 2020 win with four top 10’s finishes on 1.5-mile tracks

Other Options: Spencer Davis ($8,800), Tanner Gray ($8,200), Grant Enfinger ($7,900)

NASCAR DFS: Value Tier Rankings

  1. Robby Lyons – $6,700 – P34
  2. Tate Fogelman – $6,500 – P28th
  3. Derek Kraus – $6,900 – P15
  4. Ty Majeski – $7,100 – P19
  5. Norm Benning – $5,400 – P38
  6. Jordan Anderson – $7,400 – P32

NASCAR DFS Pit Stop: Truck Series 7/18/20

rmferenc@gmail.com
written by rmferenc@gmail.com

Welcome to the NASCAR DFS Pit Stop for Saturday night’s Truck Series race from Texas Motor Speedway! Like with the Xfinity Series earlier in the day on Saturday we have another race with Kyle Busch “invading” this race. Busch is priced high, as usual, at $16,000 Saturday night and should dominate this race.

Saturday night’s race has 147 laps meaning we have 110 dominator points try and earn in this race. Kyle Busch should lead the majority of the laps in this race starting from P4. I want to focus on finding good place differential plays to pair with Kyle to try and maximize our point totals for this race.

This race was an unmitigated disaster last year, to say the least. We had 13 cautions with 14 drivers scoring DNF’s. Because of this, we had drivers like Jennifer Jo Cobb ($5,600) and Norm Benning ($5,700) finish inside the top 20. There are a few punts I will be using in my lineups in hopes we get a similar race this year and these drivers find their way up to the middle of the pack.

NASCAR DFS: Dominators

Kyle Busch: $16,000

Starting Position: 4th

Like with the Xfinity Series earlier in the day, Kyle Busch is the top overall play. While we are using Busch as a place differential/dominator play in the NXS, we are using Busch here as a pure dominator. Greg Biffle took this truck to victory lane in 2019 and its a pretty safe bet that Kyle Busch will do the same and potentially lead 100 laps in this race.

Ross Chastain: $11,500

Starting Position: 24th

Here is the first place differential play of the night with Ross Chastain. We know Chastain is great in the Truck Series and I do not see him sitting back in the back for too long. Like we did with Busch in the Xfinity Series, we are using a Chastain as a potential dominator/place differential play. Chastain has back to back top 10’s at Texas and almost certainly add a 3rd straight on Saturday night.

Justin Haley: $10,500

Starting Position: 13th

Justin Haley is the 3rd driver of 3 I’ve written up pulling the double on Saturday and he may be a low owned play. Haley has raced here at Texas 4 times in the Truck Series never finishing lower than 6th, including a win his last time here in 2018. Justin Haley has also led 61 laps in his 4 races here as well. This is the same Truck that Chase Elliott driver to victory back in Charlotte earlier this season and Haley will attempt to push Kyle Busch for the victory Saturday night.

Other Options: Johnny Sauter ($10,900 – P21), Brett Moffitt ($9,700 – P8)

NASCAR DFS: Mid Tier

Spencer Davis: $9,100

Starting Position: 19th

Davis is not one of the top overall plays, and if you are playing cash games I wouldn’t put him in your lineup, but he is a good GPP play with some decent upside. In his only race at Texas Motor Speedway, Davis did finish 9th while leading 7 laps. In his last 3 races, Davis has finishes of 13th, 18th, and 14th but he is starting higher than he has in of those races.

Stewart Friesen: $8,900

Starting Position: 18th

Coming into this race last year Friesen had a string of 3 straight top 10 finishes at Texas, but he had suspension issues and ended up 20th. Friesen is a truck that I can see finishing in the top 5 if everything breaks his way, and a top 10 is almost a certainty in my eyes.

Christian Eckes: $8,300

Starting Position: 7th

I expect to see Christian Eckes running up front with car owner/teammate Kyle Busch most of the night on Saturday. With the exception of him wrecking out in Pocono, Eckes has three top 10’s in his last 4 races (3rd,6th, and 8th). While the 19-year-old has not driven a Truck here at Texas he does have good finishes on similar tracks, like last week in Kentucky when he came home 6th.

Other Options: Ben Rhodes ($8,700 P10), Tyler Ankrum ($8,500 P9)

NASCAR DFS: Value Tier Rankings

Tate Fogleman ($6,100) is my favorite of the value play in this race. On the season Fogleman has two top 20 finishes and four top 25 finishes with a season average of 25.1. Fogleman is starting this race at the lowest he has started any race this season and has the most upside in my opinion of any value driver in this race.

Value Tier Rankings:

  1. Tate Folgeman ($6,100 – P31)
  2. Tanner Gray ($7,300 – P20)
  3. Cory Roper ($5,500 – P30)
  4. Norm Benning ($5,700 – P36)
  5. Derek Kraus ($6,300 – P17)
  6. Brennan Poole ($6,800 – P29)
  7. Jennifer Jo Cobb ($5,600 – P35)
  8. Jordan Anderson ($6,600 – P28)

NASCAR DFS Pit Stop: Xfinity Series 7/18/20

rmferenc@gmail.com
written by rmferenc@gmail.com

Welcome to the NASCAR DFS Pit Stop for Saturday, July 18 Xfinity Series from Fort Worth, Texas! I would also like to welcome you to $17,000 Kyle Busch chalk day! If you are in the WinDailySports Discord channel you saw me mention that we are playing Kyle in the Xfinity and Truck series this weekend even though he is priced WAY up. I will go into detail in a minute. We have a 200 lap race here with 150 dominator points available and I expect the majority of them to be split between two drivers, keep reading to find out who.

Texas Motor Speedway will run similar to what we saw in Kentucky last week with only one real groove on the track so the teams with the best equipment will be the ones we want to target. Obviously we have salary restrictions and cannot get all the top teams in but DraftKings priced the slate in a way that makes it easier to build good lineups with Kyle Busch’s salary.

NASCAR DFS: Dominators

Kyle Busch ($17,000)

Starting Position: 28th

Is Kyle Busch expensive? Yes. Is he worth paying up for? Also, yes. I know it seems like a steep price to pay, but with Kyle starting 28th and being the best driver in this race he will make value. I have no doubt about that (unless he gets wrecked coming through the field) and with his starting position being so far back we can get a top 5 finish from Kyle without dominator points and he’ll still make value. Even though I say we don’t need dominator point from Busch, we will get them as I think he leads the majority of the second half of this race.

Chase Briscoe ($11,300)

Starting Position: 12th

If you are making multiple lineups and want to fade Kyle in any of them, Briscoe is my favorite play after him. Briscoe has 5 wins on the season with 2 of them coming on 1.5-mile tracks. In his seven 1.5-mile races this season, Briscoe also has four top 5’s, six top 10’s, and an average finish of 6.3. Starting in the 12th spot we get the next best place differential after Kyle Busch with Chase Briscoe as well.

Austin Cindric ($10,800)

Starting Position: 3rd

Here is other dominator I mentioned in the open who I think leads the beginning part of this race. Cindric has dominated at 1.5-mile tracks this season and swept both races last week in Kentucky in dominating fashion. This season Cindric has led nearly 400 laps on mile and a half tracks and has 240 fastest laps. I will be pairing Cindric in lineups with Busch in them to try and maximize as many dominator points as I can.

Other Options: Noah Gragson ($10,400)

NASCAR DFS: Mid Tier

Anthony Alfredo ($8,300)

Starting Position: 10th

We will need to focus more on the value tier to fit Kyle Busch into our lineups but if you have the salary to fit Alfredo in, he is a good choice. Anthony Alfredo has been in 5 races at 1.5-mile tracks this season with four of those resulting in top 10 finishes. Alfredo has some great equipment in his RCR Chevy with the team that one back to back Xfinity Series championships in 2018 and 19.

Justin Haley ($8,100)

Starting Position: 11th

Haley is my favorite play in this tier especially since he is starting outside the top 10 and DraftKings dropped his price this week from $9.5K last week. In his last eight races, Haley has four top 5 finishes including a win at Talladega back in June. Haley has a top 5 car seeming every week over the last 4 races and I think another top 5 will happen on Saturday.

Other Options: Brandon Jones ($9,100), Jeremy Clements ($8,700), Tommy Joe Martins ($7,500)

NASCAR DFS: Value Tier Rankings

we are going to live in this tier this weekend, but luckily we have a plethora of options, with Brett Moffitt ($7,100), Ryan Sieg ($6,500), and Colby Howard ($5,700). Moffitt is the riskiest play, making him the best GPP value play and Howard is my favorite value play overall. In his last 6 races, Howard has 5 finishes of 21st or better with four of them being inside the top 20.

Value Tier Rankings:

  1. Colby Howard ($5,700 – P35)
  2. Brett Moffitt ($7,100 – P15)
  3. Ryan Sieg ($6,500 – P18)
  4. Jesse Little ($5,200 – P30)
  5. Stefan Parsons ($4,800 – P26)
  6. Kyle Weatherman ($5,100 – P33)
  7. Josh Williams ($6,400 – P24)

NASCAR DFS Pit Stop: Truck Series 7/11/20

rmferenc@gmail.com
written by rmferenc@gmail.com

Welcome to the first NASCAR DFS Pit Stop: Truck series article here at WinDailySports! Hopefully, we can get a clean start to this race unlike the Xfinity series had the previous 2 nights. We have 3 previous winners in this field, including last year’s winner Tyler Ankrum ($9,000) (Matt Crafton and Ben Rhodes have also won here). Ankrum starts 3rd on Saturday and is one of the better plays of the drivers starting towards the front. After leading the most laps in this race last season (40), I think Ankrum could be a dominator contender again.

NASCAR DFS: Dominators

Austin Hill ($10,800)

Starting Position: 5th

Austin Hill has been the best (full time) Truck Series driver this season. In 6 races his worst finish was a 9th place finish in Charlotte where he led 26 laps. Speaking of laps led, Hill has led laps in 4 of the 6 races this season and has led at least 11 laps in each of those 4 races. Hill doesn’t have a win this season but I think he gets that win Saturday night.

Chandler Smith ($10,000)

Starting Position: 10th

The 18-year-old Smith ran 4 races in 2019 for Kyle Busch Motorsports and finished in the top 10 in all four races and top 5 in three of those races. Smith is in the truck Kyle usually drives, the #51, so we know it’s a fast truck. I know the price seems steep for a young kid with little experience, but he is a very good driver and if Kyle Busch is confident enough to put him in his truck, I am confident enough to use him

Other Options: Johnny Sauter (P11 – $11,200), Todd Gilliland (P9- $10,200), Matt Crafton (P14 – $9,700)

NASCAR DFS: Mid Tier

Parker Kligerman ($9,400)

Starting Position: 37th

Kligerman is running his second truck race of the 2020 season, and he will most likely be the highest owned driver in the field on Saturday. In his one race, this season Kligerman started 40th and finished 15th for 54 DK points. If we can get a score like that here on Saturday, we will be happy.

Both Sheldon Creed ($8,000), and Grant Enfinger ($7,800) are viable plays tonight. These guys are two of the top drivers in the Truck Series, especially Enfinger who has two wins this season already. They both start inside the top 10, so they are definitely better suited for multi-entry GPP as their upside is limited, but they are both threats to win this race on Saturday

Ryan Truex ($7,500)

Starting Position: 18th

Truex has only raced once in 2020, a 13th place finish in Atlanta last month after starting 20th. That race was Truex’s first Truck race since 2017, but he did manage and 8th place finish at Kentucky Speedway last season in the Xfinity Series, so he does have a good history at this track, albeit a small history. I think Truex will be lower owned, but it’s hard to get a gauge on that for me

Other Options: Ben Rhodes (P6 – $8,700), Christian Eckes (P4 – $8,500), Clay Greenfield (P33 – $8,200)

NASCAR DFS: Value Tier

Derek Kraus – $7,300

Starting Position: 17th

Kraus is quietly one of the better drivers this season on the Truck Series with 4 straight finishes of 16th or better. There is not a ton of value in this race, but Kraus is the best of this tier in my opinion.

Value Rankings:

  1. Derek Kraus – P17 – $7,300
  2. Brennan Poole – P32 – $7,400
  3. Tanner Gray – P21 – $6,800
  4. Spencer Boyd – P29 – $5,800
  5. Chase Purdy – P19 – $6,500
  6. Trey Hutchins – P40 – $5,400
  7. Timothy Viens – P34 – $4,800
