NBA DFS Picks: DraftKings & FanDuel Expert Survey for Friday, March 27
Who is your favorite player to spend up for in cash games?
Notorious: Jayson Tatum
Dean78904: Nikola Jokic
ncorfield8k: Nikola Jokic
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?
Notorious: I prefer small-field and single-entry tournaments. The biggest decision point for me is going to be Nikola Jokic. Thanks to Jaylen Brown being out, we have enough value to fit both Jokic and Jayson Tatum in lineups. That’s likely the path I will take in my main lineup. However, banking on the Jazz to be competitive is not something that I love doing, so I am toying with the idea of fading Jokic. It will naturally make my lineup different in most contests, especially from a roster construction standpoint.
Dean78904: I mostly focus on single-entry and smaller-field contests. I’d make sure to play at least one Celtic on every team. If I’m unable to get to Nikola Jokic, I’d really try to get to Alperen Sengun, as I suspect (at least) one of them puts up a very usable score.
ncorfield8k: Large-field tournaments – It’s a large slate on a Friday night in late March. I’ll be paying close attention to news and lineups for shenanigans, and I expect the field to be underutilizing late swap. I’ll be overweight on the MIA/CLE game, as it is my favorite game environment on the slate.
Who is your favorite play (when considering price, matchup, roster construction, etc.) on the board and why?
