NBA DFS Picks: DraftKings & FanDuel Expert Survey for Tuesday, April 7
Who is your favorite player to spend up for in cash games?
Notorious: Brice Sensabaugh (FD) / Bam Adebayo (DK)
headChopper: Kyle Filipowski
ncorfield8k: Kyle Filipowski
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 tournaments. You can afford to eat more chalk in these contests, yet there’s more upside in terms of payouts than cash games. I will be loading up on the Pelicans and Bulls. They are both shorthanded and have the best two matchups in all of NBA DFS. I will likely have at least 3 players from each team.
headChopper: I like small-field GPPs with limited entries. Sometimes you just have to eat the chalk in the NBA. Tonight, there are a few guys projecting well with good salaries, so I am just going to eat that chalk. Utah and New Orleans should be a good fantasy game that I will load up on. I’m going to play Julius Randle chalk. I just need to find 1 or 2 players who don’t have high pOWN% and hope to get a good game out of them.
ncorfield8k: Large-field tournaments – I’ll be overweight on all the Raptors’ starters but limit how many I can get per lineup. They’re unpredictable game-to-game, but it’s an elite spot against the Heat. I’ll also have a lot of the Anthony Edwards-less Timberwolves and the value plays on the Bulls.
Who is your favorite play (when considering price, matchup, roster construction, etc.) on the board and why?
