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.

Who is your top overall play (when considering price, matchup, roster construction, etc.) on the board and why?
