NBA DFS Picks: DraftKings & FanDuel Expert Survey for Wednesday, November 29
Which useful trend or statistic stuck out most during your research?
Notorious: The three teams projected for the most points above their season average are the Magic (+9.4), Grizzlies (+8.7), and Lakers (+6.5).
The three teams projected for the most points below their season average are the Rockets (-5.5), Jazz (-4.5), and Wizards (-4.1).
squirrelpatrol: Three of Denver’s top four players for scoring and assists are questionable for a 9:00 PM ET game – Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray, and Aaron Gordon. The prices and matchup aren’t the best, but if only one of those players is able to give it a go (or if all of them are out), we’ll want to have late-swap options available.
headChopper: Over the last 9 games, Jaren Jackson has averaged 29 fantasy points per game. He hasn’t exceeded 38.5 fantasy points in any game on either site over that span. His early ownership projections put him at over 40% on both sites.
Stevietpfl: On the season, the Clippers rank 6th in defensive rating, but over their last 5 games, they’re 1st. This team is starting to click with James Harden.
TastefulTides: Desmond Bane put up over 60 DK points a few weeks ago against this very same Jazz team, and that was with Marcus Smart playing close to 25 minutes and Lauri Markkanen playing 37 minutes. Even with Walker Kessler back in the picture, I still think this team is too undersized to contain Bane around the hoop.
