Happy Sunday, March 22nd, we have a 3-game NBA DFS main slate on DraftKings starting at 7:30 pm ET and four games on FanDuel starting at 6:00 pm.

Despite the fact we have three or four games depending on where you're playing, there are a lot of players popping up on the injury report such as Jaylen Brown, Trae Young, Russell Westbrook, and Josh Hart. FanDuel included the Kings and Nets game and DraftKings did not. It's an interesting slate and we only have three players on DK over $9,000 and two on FD.

 

 

Before actually diving into the meat and potatoes, welcome to the NBA DFS season. If this is your first time reading our column on NBA DFS picks, I just want to welcome you and give you a few tips and tricks on what you should be looking for each night.

  • News outlets: reliable sources that give us injury news & starting lineups
  • Pace of play: who's playing fast vs. who's playing slow. Which teams get a pace-up spot (more possessions) vs. pace-down (fewer possessions)
  • Usage rates: is a percentage of how many plays that player is being used in
  • NBA DFS Projections
  • Lineup Generator
  • NBA Ownership
