NBA DFS Picks: DraftKings & FanDuel Expert Survey for Wednesday, November 22
Which useful trend or statistic stuck out most during your research?
Notorious: The three games that project for the highest pace (CHA-WAS, IND-TOR, and DAL-LAL) all feature a defense that is 24th or worse in defensive rating. For the Hornets and Wizards, both defenses are in the bottom four in defensive rating. In their two meetings already this season, the teams have combined for 148 and 141 points.
TastefulTides: The CHA/WAS game is the clear game of the night, as they both play fast and are atrocious defensively. The Wizards rank dead last in rebound percentage, so the bigs for the Hornets should feast. Deni Avdija is also a midday questionable who would only hurt this weak Washington defense.
squirrelpatrol: There are 28 NBA teams playing tonight in the night before a holiday when no team plays tomorrow. 24 of the 28 teams tip-off after the slate locks. This will be an important night to pay attention to the news after lock in anticipation of some NBA late scratch shenanigans.
headChopper: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander is $9,700 on DraftKings. Over the last 12 games, his salary has averaged $10,500, with the lowest being $10,300. Our early projections peg him as the 5th-highest scorer, meaning he has moved into bargain range.
Stevietpfl: Washington ranks 2nd in pace and 27th in defensive rating this season. Charlotte ranks 10th in pace and 30th in defensive rating. This should be a fast-paced game with little to no defense.
