NBA dfs

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. 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.

Mostof the players I recommend are best used together for cash gamepurposes. These players are also decent considerations for guaranteedprize pool (GPP) games when used individually with other contrariantype players.

TheStud

Giannis Antetokounmpo ($11000) When I first glanced at this NBA DFS slate, Giannis was the first player I immediately clicked on. While there is a chance the Bucks MVP may be limited today due to the fact that they basically have nothing to play for, I simply can’t ignore the upside. The Rockets basically have no defense nor do they roster any big men. This was evident in their first game when they let Kristaps Porzingas go off for 70 DraftKings fantasy points (DKFPTS). The “Greek Freak” dwarfs this Rocket team and posted a triple-double in the first meeting between these two teams. He scores nearly 2 DKFPTS per minute and has a usage at almost 40%. For me, this is a no brainer. Plug Giannis into the PF spot, and then start your roster builds. It’s that simple.

TheCore

I’m going to insert a disclaimer on this NBA DFS slate right off the bat. I absolutely LOVE the Memphis Grizzlies today. Favored by 4 ½ over a Spurs team that has limited players available and an inferior defense, Memphis has an implied team total (ITT) at 119.5 which is 6.6 points higher than their season average. Most of the Grizzlies are also under priced in my opinion, making them an absolute necessity in roster building today.

JaMorant ($7300) The Kings guards just went off on this Spur team and Iexpect the favored rookie of the year to make a statement here. Jalooks like he’s been keeping busy during the break building muscleand cardio. He has a 28% usage rate against a Spur team that ranks28^th in (DVA) which is a rank given to the opponent whenfacing this player’s archetype.

Jaren Jackson Jr. ($5200) I can’t for the life of me figure out why DraftKings hasn’t fixed his pricing. Oh well. Jackson just went off on Portland to the tune of 45 DKFPTS in 45 minutes. Lonnie Walker will have no answer for this power forward and I expect Jaren to crush value again. Jackson does have a tendency to commit fouls, but with Memphis all in on grabbing a playoff spot they will need him to watch his step.

Caris LeVert ($7800) Grabbing some Nets vs. this porous Wizard team is a great idea on this NBA DFS slate, and Caris is now the go to guy in Brooklyn. He just put 30 DKFPTS on Orlando is what I considered to be a poor performance against a slow paced solid defense. Washington is the virtual opposite. I expect LeVert to go north of his average 37 DKFPTS in this game.

TheValue

WhileI expect the masses to flock to Lonnie Walker, Daniel House, and ZachCollins, Let me point out some others I’m considering.

ThomasBryant ($4800) It’s been a long standing DFS opportunity to targetCenters against Brooklyn. I believe Bryant is the guy in Washingtonand flying under the radar in this one.

JarrettAllen ($5600) Someone not named LaVert is going to have to step upfor Brooklyn and I can see Allen being the guy now that DeAndreJordan is not in his way to maximizing his minutes.

Ish Smith ($3800) Look I get there’s a bit of a struggle in the Washington backcourt between him and Napier, but Ish played 27 minutes against Phoenix and dropped almost 32 DKFPTS. At $3800 you can’t really ask for anything better than that on this NBA DFS slate.

BrandonClarke ($4200) More of a fade for me, but I’m penciling him in hereanyway. Clarke will look to be extremely chalky after dropping almost40 DKFPTS on Portland. Big man Valanciunas and the above namedJackson were both in foul trouble in that one. While I see the youngtalented Clarke playing multiple positions off the bench and gettingmore minutes than he did pre-break, I’m tempering my expectationstoday on the chalk play.

There are a ton of players to like on this NBA DFS slate today. 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.
