NBA DFS Picks: DraftKings & FanDuel Expert Survey for Wednesday, April 8
Who is your favorite player to spend up for in cash games?
Notorious: Nikola Jokic
TJ Zwarych: 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 tournaments. This is shaping up to be an extreme stars-and-scrubs slate. We have more value than we could ever need, and we have some superstars in elite spots. I like the idea of locking in Nikola Jokic and Deni Avdija and then filling in a bunch of strong value plays around them.
TJ Zwarych: I’ll just be playing one lineup in single-entry contests, and I plan to stack up the Blazers vs. Spurs. I’ll be playing Dylan Harper, De’Aaron Fox, and at least one other Spurs player, and I like running it back with Donovan Clingan on the other side. I’ll jam in Nikola Jokic as well. Then I’ll fill in value pieces from the Timberwolves, Bucks, and Grizzlies.
ncorfield8k: Large-field tournaments – Team motivations are changing rapidly as the playoff picture becomes clearer, so I’ll be paying close attention to any news and lineups. I’ll be heavy on studs on teams with motivation and spread out my exposure to the many value plays.
Who is your favorite play (when considering price, matchup, roster construction, etc.) on the board and why?
