NBA DFS Core Plays LIVE: Tuesday, January 10th

Andy Means (meansy53), a former Duke basketball walk-on, will be bringing Premium subscribers his top NBA DFS plays to build around on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. Everyone’s favorite, Notorious, will be guiding you on Tuesdays and Thursdays. And on weekends, the GPP maestro you all know and love, STLCards, takes the reins.

GENERAL SLATE THOUGHTS

10:30 AM ET: JAGS BABY… we did it!

While we are here to talk about basketball, how about the Jaguars pulling off a comeback victory in the fourth quarter while have negative yards on offense? Let’s hope Trevor Lawrence and company can put together a better offensive performance against the Chargers.

On a completely separate note, what are some good shows that everyone is watching at the moment? I’ve been a fan of the following over the years: The Office, Always Sunny in Philadelphia, Game of Thrones, Breaking Bad, Better Caul Saul, Ted Lasso, the F1 series on Netflix, anything to do with space (Interstellar is one of my all-time favorite movies), Survivor, Big Brother, The Challenge, and lately I’ve been on a Vikings kick (the show Vikings and The Last Kingdom). Let’s hear some suggestions… based on some Slack channel talk, I know Meansy approves of White Lotus. It’s on my list of shows to watch. I’m also extremely excited for the PGA Tour series coming out on Netflix here in the next few weeks.

We have eight games on the schedule for Wednesday night. There are nine teams playing in the second half of a back-to-back — the Bulls, Knicks, Pelicans, Celtics, Bucks, Spurs, Grizzlies, Nuggets, and Kings. That’s a lot of back-to-backs. I’ll cover some of the potential if-then scenarios throughout the day, but let’s start with the players that are on the injury report for tonight’s slate:

Out:

Bradley Beal
Bojan Bogdanovic
Jalen Duren
Jordan McLaughlin
Serge Ibaka
Khris Middleton

Keldon Johnson
