NBA DFS Preseason Primer: Tuesday, October 8th

Hello Grinders. Before we get to Tuesday’s slate, just wanted to briefly touch on what happened Monday. We found out the Bucks stars decided to rest 30 minutes before lock, leaving us all in a scramble. I did my best to update the Primer with a huge sign at the top, as well as bring it up several times in the Premium NBA Discord channel. I know not everyone got the news and if you didn’t, I’m sorry. I’ll continue to do my best providing updates but I really do need to reiterate that Discord is the best place to be prior to lock if you can make it (it’s essentially the Crunch Time of preseason for late breaking news).

This is another tough slate in that the games are separated by several hours, and with FanDuel not having any late swap, we may need to take some risks. With that in mind, let’s touch on today’s slate:

Spurs vs Heat
