NBA DFS Core Plays LIVE: Thursday, December 29th

Andy Means (meansy53) will be bringing Premium subscribers his top NBA DFS plays to build around for the upcoming slate. A former Duke basketball walk-on, Meansy will also give you his thoughts on the slate as a whole from a macro perspective. On weekends, the GPP maestro you all know and love, STLCards, takes the reins. And on this rare occasion, we have Noto at the helm.

GENERAL SLATE THOUGHTS

6:55 PM ET – Happy Thursday!

I get the pleasure of seeing a Little Mermaid play today at 2:00 PM ET. The grandparents bought all of the kids experiences for Christmas and I am lucky enough to join in on the fun. I was never a fan of the cartoon version as a kid, but I’m sure I will love this one. Kidding aside, I only mention it because I won’t be able to update the tables or the injury news for a few hours. I assume I’ll be back before 5:00 PM ET, so that will give me plenty of time to get everything up to date before lineups lock.

There are six games on the schedule this evening and we don’t have a single team playing in the second half of a back-to-back. This should certainly help on the injury front. For starters, let’s take a look at the players that have been ruled out and those that are listed as questionable.
