NBA DFS Picks: DraftKings & FanDuel Expert Survey for Wednesday, November 15
Which useful trend or statistic stuck out most during your research?
Notorious: Here is how the Bulls have fared with DeMar DeRozan out of the lineup since the start of last season:
Zach LaVine – 37.6 minutes and 45.9 fantasy points per game
Nikola Vucevic – 35.0 minutes and 49.7 fantasy points per game
Coby White – 32.1 minutes and 30.5 fantasy points per game
meansy53: In the stretch of 4 games that Darius Garland missed earlier this season, Isaac Okoro started all 4 games and averaged 29.5 minutes per game. However, Okoro is out tonight (along with Garland), as he is set to miss his 5th straight game with a knee injury.
squirrelpatrol: The Washington Wizards are 6-point underdogs and still have the 2nd-highest implied team total (119.75). The WAS/DAL game has a 243.5 total, 8.5 points higher than any other game. Kyrie Irving is questionable, which is a major piece of injury news for the slate.
headChopper: So far this season, when DeMar DeRozan is off the court, it has been Coby White who has seen the biggest bump in usage. But DeMar hasn’t missed a full game, so those could just be rotation stats. Last season, in games where DeMar sat out entirely, Nikola Vucevic averaged almost 11 DK / 10 FD points per game higher than when DDR played.
tcsmith031: Shaedon Sharpe leads the league in minutes per game at 39.6, and he’s topped 40 in each of his 6 games this month. That includes a 41-minute effort last night in a game the Blazers lost by 16 points. With the Blazers short on guards, we have Sharpe projected to log another 39 tonight at home vs. the Cavs.
