NBA DFS Picks: DraftKings & FanDuel Expert Survey for Wednesday, December 6
Which useful trend or statistic stuck out most during your research?
Notorious: This is a sneaky spot for the Bulls. They are at home, they are facing the Hornets (30th in defensive rating), and they are without Zach LaVine. There are two players that have really benefitted with him off the floor this season:
- DeMar DeRozan: 1.23 DK / 1.25 FD per minute
- Coby White: 1.05 DK / 0.98 FD per minute
squirrelpatrol: Orlando Robinson has played more than 25 minutes in 3 games this season and has averaged 13.7 points, 7 rebounds, and 4 assists in those games.
headChopper: If we take away the first 3 games of the season, all in October, Fred VanVleet has been below 31 fantasy points just one time. That’s the last 13 games. In those 13 games, he’s averaging 41 DK / 38 FD points per game. With a mid-tier price tag on both sites, he fits into a balanced cash build.
Stevietpfl: In 115 minutes with Bam Adebayo, Haywood Highsmith, RJ Hampton, and Tyler Herro off the floor, Jimmy Butler is averaging 1.51 fantasy points per minute. He has a 6.8% usage rate increase with those players off the floor. Jaime Jaquez, Kevin Love, and Orlando Robinson are the other players who benefit from Bam being out.
TastefulTides: In 237 minutes with LaMelo Ball off the court, Brandon Miller has a usage increase of almost 5% and has gained close to 7 FD points per game.
