1/22 NBA DFS Draftkings Lineup Analysis

Giannis seems to disappoint us in big games. Shot wayyyy too many 3’s, fouled out, and had 9 turnovers... Hopefully you guys played light. Juicy 11-game slate today with lots of key players out. Let’s get after it!
Cash Core (priority):

Demarcus Cousins - I’m telling you right now, he’s high-owned today. No Christian Wood, so this is just a plug and play

Fred Vanvleet - No Kyle Lowry. Vanvleet looks great as well as Norman Powell for value
Trae Young - Going up against THE WORST defensive team in the NBA. Love Trae, love Capela, could be some value too if Reddish and Hunter miss

Julius Randle - Again, going up against one of the worst defensive teams in the NBA. Randle and RJ Barrett look good here
James Harden - No KD. Love Harden here, especially in a spot where this Nets team just got humiliated by Collin Sexton. Only 2 shot attempts in the 1st half last time. I don’t expect that again.
GPP Interests (high risk/high reward):

Devonte Graham
Goran Dragic/Kendrick Nunn
Daniel Gafford
Collin Sexton
Kyrie Irving
Joe Harris
Joel Embiid
Nikola Jokic
Jerami Grant

Welcome back! A much needed day off, but we’re back at it today. Let’s end this week on a high note and make some money
Cash Core (priority):

Nikola Vucevic - Great matchup. Aaron Gordon is also out, so Vucevic should see an increase in usage

Demar Derozan - Good matchup and his price is too low, in my opinion
Bradley Beal - Washington is very thin today with potentially only 9 active players. If Westbrook is out, I like Beal a lot

GPP Interests (high risk/high reward):

Jaylen Brown
Khem Birch
Devonte Graham
Giannis Antetokounmpo
Damian Lillard
Julius Randle
Alec Burks

1/21 NBA DFS Draftkings Lineup Analysis

Solid core once again! Embiid smashed at low ownership and everyone else got their value.

Weak slate today, so play light. Tomorrow is where the real money is made with 13 games! But let’s focus on today and kill it, regardless
Cash Core (priority):

Giannis Antetokounmpo - He played 40 minutes last game in a competitive game, so I expect nothing less here
Anthony Davis - Both Lebron and AD finally played big minutes last game. It’s going to be tough getting all these studs in your lineup with little value, but the upside is definitely there

1/20 NBA DFS Draftkings Lineup Analysis

Cash core was successful again! 9-game slate today. I'm excited to see the big 3 in Brooklyn today, but all way too expensive on DK. Can we talk about how Kevin Huerter is 9.5k on Draftkings?! I’m not trolling you, go check it out
Cash Core (priority):

Joel Embiid - This is a pretty cheap price to get Embiid. He burned a lot of people last time, so I expect him to bounce back big here

Malcolm Brogdon - With Caris Levert still out, it’s gonna be the Brogdon and Sabonis show
Goran Dragic - If Tyler Herro is out, I like Dragic a lot here. Should get the start and is a very high usage guy. Bam would also look intruiging

Nikola Vucevic - A solid play in a good matchup with no KAT on the other end. I like both, Vucevic and Aarom Gordon today

"Streaming Players"

This means you have an extra spot on your bench to bring in a new player off the waiver wire anytime you need to fill a spot on your roster. We're going to give some daily options for those of you that do this. Likely lower owned players who are on waivers
Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Streams of the Day:

Jalen Brunson (2% owned)
Kendrick Nunn (19% owned) if Tyler Herro is out
Cameron Johnson (14% owned)
Doug Mcdermott (10% owned)
These are "short-term" adds and will likely head back onto waivers

1/19 NBA DFS Draftkings Lineup Analysis

Not a great slate, so I recommend playing light today. Only 2 games with no real stand-out plays, but we’re not taking any days off. Lets go!
Cash Core (priority):

Nikola Jokic - He’s the clear, obvious spend up today and will probably be pretty high-owned. The blowout is a risk factor, but he could crush if it stays competitive
Zion Williamson - Zion is here for the fact that he has a high floor. It’s an ok matchup, but there aren’t a lot of standout plays. Steven Adams is also a safe play

Isaiah Roby - Going up against Jokic will be tough, but Al Horford remains out, so he should see some good minutes

1/18 NBA DFS Draftkings Lineup Analysis

2nd leg of the slate double header. Cash core was 🔥🔥 this morning, so let’s keep it rolling!

Not a ton of value, but there are still some interesting options for spend-ups. This won't be an easy slate
Cash Core (priority):

Giannis Antetokounmpo - Should be a close game here, so I expect Giannis to play big minutes tonight

Christian Wood - Great matchup against a weak Bulls team. Loving Eric Gordon as well with John Wall still out
Luka Doncic - The Mavs are on a back to back, but I still like Luka today. If this game stays competitive, he could have another massive game with multiple players still out
