NBA DFS Showdown Picks: DraftKings & FanDuel Expert Survey for Saturday, May 4
Which useful trend or statistic stuck out most during your research?
tcsmith031: Jamal Murray (31%) – not Nikola Jokic (26%) – is actually leading the Nuggets in usage in the playoffs. Murray still hasn’t been all that efficient, though, as his 1.07 DK FP/minute rate in the playoffs pales in comparison to the 1.27 mark he posted during the regular season.
eys819: The Wolves ranked 1st in defensive rating during the regular season, but they have fallen to 5th in playoffs. However, their offensive rating, which ranked 17th in the regular season, ranks 1st so far in the playoffs.
kmurray03: So far this postseason, Karl-Anthony Towns is just behind Anthony Edwards, as Towns is averaging 1.31 fantasy points per minute. While he is playing fewer minutes than Edwards, this could easily be a spot where we see his minutes start to rise as we get deeper into the playoffs.
What is your preferred tournament format (e.g. large-field, single-entry) to play on this slate? How do you plan to beat that field of opponents? What tactic or strategy will set you apart?
