NBA DFS Picks: DraftKings & FanDuel Expert Survey for Friday, November 6

Who is your favorite player to spend up for in cash games?

Notorious: RJ Barrett
Dean78904: RJ Barrett
ncorfield8k: Kyrie Irving

How do you plan to beat the field of opponents in the tournaments you will be playing? What tactic or strategy will set you apart?

Notorious: There are so many key players listed as questionable for tonight’s slate. My first piece of advice is to not get locked into any plays until we have a better idea of the injury picture. This is not a slate where we can make our lineups a few hours before lock. Because of that, it’s hard for me to give an answer about how I am going to differentiate. However, I fully plan to be overweight on the teams that are shorthanded tonight.

Dean78904: As things stand right now, we don’t have a ton of amazing value. The slate could flip on its head, as several key plays are currently Q: Anthony Davis, Scottie Barnes, Immanuel Quickley, Jalen Johnson, and Jarrett Allen. If we lose Anthony Davis, guys like Kyshawn George, Alexandre Sarr, and Bilal Coulibaly would all get a projection bump. No matter what happens news-wise, I have to think I’m going to have at least one Raptor (and possibly more) in every lineup I make, as the Bucks defense is so attackable.

ncorfield8k: Every game starts within an hour of lock, so we should have most information going into the slate. I like using the NBA DFS sims when this is the case. I’ll still keep my eye out for late breaking news and late swap as necessary.

Who is your favorite play (when considering price, matchup, roster construction, etc.) on the board and why?
