Brook Lopez (C, BK) - Smart DraftKings Play on 2/10/16
Brook Lopez (vs MEM, $7,500) Marc Gasol has recently been diagnosed with a broken foot, and the Grizzlies don’t have anyone else who is big enough to play center for an entire game. Brook Lopez is one of the best centers in the NBA, and it’s tough for anyone to guard him, let alone someone who isn’t... Read More
Markieff Morris (PF, PHO) - DraftKings Value Play on 2/10/16
Markieff Morris (vs GS, $6,500) Morris’ price is on the rise, but he’s still entirely too cheap for his new role with the Suns. Since the Suns changed their head coach, Morris is averaging 21.0 points, 7.5 rebounds, 4.8 assists, 1.5 blocks, and 1.0 steal in 34.5 minutes per game. He has only struggled in one of... Read More
Jamal Crawford (SG, LAC) - DraftKings Value Play on 2/10/16
Jamal Crawford (at BOS, $5,300) Jamal Crawford’s price is finally around where it should be, but Crawford should still nearly be a lock for value tonight. Over the last 10 days, he’s averaging 20.8 points, 1.8 rebounds, 2.8 assists, and 1.2 steals per game. He gets most of his fantasy production from scoring, and he’s averaging over... Read More
DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice - NBA DFS Lineup Picks for 2/10/16
The Grizzlies recently announced that Marc Gasol has a broken foot, and he'll be out for a while. This is a major problem for the Grizzlies, as they don't have anyone that can fill in big minutes at the center position, but this is great for fantasy purposes. We can attack the Grizzlies center position,... Read More
DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice - NBA DFS Lineup Picks for 2/6/16
We're in for a show tonight! Russell Westbrook and Kevin Durant will be taking on Stephen Curry, Klay Thompson, and Draymond Green.

Lebron James (SF, CLE) - DraftKings Big Money Play on 2/5/16
LeBron James (vs BOS, $9,600) James has been playing well for his new coach, and that has a lot to do with the new pace the Cavs are playing at. Over the last 10 days, James is averaging 23.7 points, 6.5 rebounds, 7.5 assists, 1.0 block, and 1.2 steals per game. He has scored 50+ fantasy points... Read More
Mario Hezonja (SG, ORL) - DraftKings Sleeper for 2/5/16
Mario Hezonja (vs LAC, $3,300) It looks like the Magic are finally going to give their rookie a decent amount of minutes from here on out. Hezonja has played at least 20 minutes in four consecutive games, and he has scored 24+ fantasy points in two of those games. He comes with a little bit of risk,... Read More
Michael Kidd-Gilchrist (SF, CHA) - DraftKings Value Play on 2/5/16
Michael Kidd-Gilchrist (vs MIA, $5,200) MKG has been back for three games now, and he’s averaging 14.3 points, 10.7 rebounds, and 1.3 assists per game. Aside from a game against a weak Lakers team, MKG has played 34 and 37 minutes in his other two games. This game should stay fairly close throughout all four quarters, which... Read More

Aaron Gordon (SF, ORL) - DraftKings Value Play on 2/3/16
Aaron Gordon (at OKC, $5,400) If you have been living under a rock over the last few days, Aaron Gordon is in the middle of a huge breakout. Over the last 10 days, he’s averaging 12.0 points, 10.7 rebounds, and 2.3 assists per game, including a huge 12 point and 16 rebound double double against the Spurs... Read More
Jordan Hill (PF, IND) - DraftKings Value Play on 2/3/16
Jordan Hill (at BKN, $5,500) Ian Mahinmi has been ruled out for tonight’s game, which means Jordan Hill is going to play big minutes once again. In his last two games, he has played a combined 74 minutes and he scored a total of 79.25 fantasy points. He gets a great matchup against the Nets, who he dominated... Read More
E'Twaun Moore (SG, CHI) - DraftKings Sleeper on 2/3/16
E’Twaun Moore (at SAC, $3,600) It would be wise to get a part of the Bulls offense tonight, as they get a great matchup against a weak Kings defense. Moore is an extremely cheap way to get a part of their starters, as he has started in each of the last three games. He hasn’t been... Read More
Russell Westbrook (PG, OKC) - DraftKings Big Money Play on 2/3/16
Russell Westbrook (vs ORL, $11,000) If you have the money to get Westbrook in your lineup, you would be wise to do so. He has been playing unbelievably well recently, as he’s averaging 23.3 points, 9.7 rebounds, 10.7 assists, and 1.3 steals per game over the last 10 days. He’s coming off two consecutive triple doubles, and... Read More
DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice - NBA DFS Lineup Picks for 2/3/16
Is it just me or is this rookie class much better than the last few years? Karl-Anthony Towns, Devin Booker, and Myles Turner have been lighting up the NBA recently, and they are three of the youngest players in the leagues. It's truly amazing. In this article, I will be providing you with daily fantasy... Read More
James Harden (SG, HOU) - DraftKings Big Money Play on 1/30/16
James Harden (vs WAS, $10,100) Harden has been on fire, aside from a poor performance against the Spurs, in which he only played 28 minutes because it was a blowout. His price should be significantly higher than it is, as Harden is one of the best fantasy players in the NBA when he’s on fire. He... Read More
Jrue Holiday (PG, NO) - Strong DraftKings Play on 1/30/16
Jrue Holiday (vs BKN, $7,100) Holiday has been on fire recently, averaging 23.3 points, 5.0 rebounds, 8.7 assists, and 2.0 steals (46.25 fantasy points) per game over his last three games. He gets a great matchup against the Nets, who have really struggled defensively this season, and Holiday can be used in all leagues. He’ll gain more... Read More
Myles Turner (C, IND) - DraftKings Value Play on 1/30/16
Myles Turner (vs DEN, $5,300) Turner has given the Pacers no choice but to give him minutes because of how well he has been playing. Over the last 10 days, he’s averaging 18.6 points, 6.0 rebounds, and 2.6 blocks in only 26.6 minutes per game. He’s an extremely athletic player, who will be able to keep up... Read More
DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice - NBA DFS Lineup Picks for 1/30/16
Last night had a few great elite options, including Russell Westbrook, Kevin Durant, and James Harden, but Boogie Cousins returns to action tonight.

DeAndre Jordan (C, LAC) - DraftKings Smart and Safe Play on 1/29/16
DeAndre Jordan (vs LAL, $7,500) Jordan has been rebounding at an elite level recently, as he’s averaging 13.8 points, and 14.5 rebounds per game over the last 10 days. Tonight, Jordan gets a great matchup against the Lakers, who rank dead last in the NBA against centers this season. Jordan won’t have any troubles rebounding tonight, and... Read More
Kevin Durant (SF, OKC) - DraftKings Big Money Play on 1/29/16
Kevin Durant (vs HOU, $10,100) If you don’t want to pay up for Russell Westbrook tonight, Kevin Durant makes a great secondary option for the Thunder. His price isn’t quite as high, but he has been playing nearly as well as Westy over the last 10 days. Over that span, KD is averaging 29.6 points, 9.0 rebounds,... Read More
Zach Lavine (PG, MIN) - DraftKings Value Play on 1/29/16
Zach LaVine (at UTA, $4,900) LaVine has been playing big minutes because of the injury to Kevin Martin, and Martin will likely sit out again tonight. In his last two games, LaVine is averaging 28.0 points, 3.0 rebounds, 3.5 assists, and 1.0 steal per game. He has flashed tremendous upside in those two games, as he easily exceeded... Read More
Archie Goodwin (SG, PHO) - DraftKings Value Play on 1/29/16
Archie Goodwin (at NY, $5,600) Goodwin is finally at a price where he isn’t a must start tonight, but he still makes a great option. Over the last 10 days, Goodwin is averaging 18.0 points, 2.8 rebounds, 3.4 assists, and 1.6 steals per game. Brandon Knight is going to be out again tonight, which means Goodwin is locked into... Read More
DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball Advice - NBA DFS Lineup Picks for 1/29/16
The NBA is dealing with a plethora of injuries, which seem to only be coming from teams that are trying to get a better pick. The main team I'm talking about is the Suns, as they only dressed around eight players the one night. Regardless, it helps our fantasy lineups because we can get such... Read More
