NBA DFS Picks: DraftKings & FanDuel Expert Survey for Monday, November 27
Which useful trend or statistic stuck out most during your research?
Notorious: In the 5 games since Russell Westbrook has moved to a bench role, here are the minute and fantasy point averages of the big three on the Clippers:
- James Harden: 32.6 minutes and 38.9 FPs – Kawhi Leonard: 32.8 minutes and 37.9 FPs – Paul George: 36.6 minutes and 44.9 FPs
tcsmith031: Nikola Jokic is now averaging a ridiculous 1.91 DK FP/minute on the season, while he’s up to 1.99 in the minutes he’s played without Jamal Murray. Jokic’s 33% usage rate so far this season is easily the highest of his career.
squirrelpatrol: The Wizards rebounding differential makes me recheck the numbers every time, but they have a -11.5 rebounding differential per game on the season. They give up 50.7 rebounds per game to opponents (worst in the league) and only grab 39.2 RPG themselves (also worst in the league). The next-worst team is Chicago, with a -5.1 rebounding differential.
TastefulTides: I feel like I write this every day, but the Wizards are the best team to stream against for fantasy purposes. They rank dead last in defensive rating and second in pace. Not to mention, this is only a 2.5-point spread, so both teams should get their regular minutes.
Bobby Gomes: The bottom of the Eastern Conference will meet, as the Wizards and Pistons both sit at 2-14. Not the worst thing from a fantasy angle though when the game has the 2nd-highest total on the slate (236) and has the closest spread (Detroit -2.5). The Wizards are playing at the 2nd-fastest pace, and the Pistons sit at 11th. These are the type of game settings where we can game stack in numerous ways in anticipation of a close track meet.
Who is your top overall play (when considering price, matchup, roster construction, etc.) on the board and why?
