NBA DFS Picks: DraftKings Expert Survey for Saturday, March 28
Who is your favorite player to spend up for in cash games?
tcsmith031: Jalen Johnson
Bobby Gomes: Jalen Johnson
TJ Zwarych: Jalen Johnson
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?
tcsmith031: I’ll play single-entry GPPs tonight. I think there’s a good chance the Suns blow the doors off of a Jazz team that played a competitive game last night, so I’d rather game stack the earlier SAC/ATL contest. The Hawks have one of the slate’s highest implied team totals, while the Kings’ side is projecting for very low ownership across the board. In order for Jalen Johnson to hit a GPP-winning ceiling, the Kings will probably need to keep this one competitive. In lineups with Johnson, I plan to run it back with lower-owned plays like Maxime Raynaud, DeMar DeRozan, and Malik Monk.
Bobby Gomes: Large-field GPPs – The Bulls/Grizzlies game is the centerpiece. It has a close spread (-3.5 Bulls) with an implied total north of 245. It sets up as a fast, affordable track meet with value on both sides. Josh Giddey and Matas Buzelis are the primary expensive pieces worth building around. On a 3-game slate, this is the game to stack in multiple ways.
TJ Zwarych: I’ll just play one lineup in single-entry contests tonight. I’m going to try to jam in both Jalen Johnson and Josh Giddey in great matchups. I’ll utilize the cheap value on Memphis to make it happen, and I’ll ignore most of the UTA/PHX game.
Who is your favorite play (when considering price, matchup, roster construction, etc.) on the board and why?

About the Author
Robert Brown (aka Epignosis) was having lunch at a sports bar. A football game was on. He remarked to his wife that if he could have a second life, he’d like to be someone who enjoyed watching sports. That enjoyment began when he signed up for a fantasy football league that needed one more player. Since then, he has enjoyed playing NFL, NBA, and (especially) MLB DFS. When not teaching American literature, editing content for RotoGrinders (which he has done since 2019), or making lineups, Epignosis is rocking out or jazzing it up on one of several possible instruments.
