RG Newsletter #20: DFS/Betting Community News, Stats, Trends, And More!
Hey Grinders!
This Nets team is built to play games in the 250s, but they’re proving they can grind out low-scoring wins. Last night’s W came against a depleted Lakers squad, but it’s still a win on the road against LeBron. Brooklyn only put up 109 points, but it was a dominant victory that was never in doubt. More on the Nets in the Stat of the Week.
As always, hit us up on Twitter, Instagram or Facebook if you have something you want to see in this space!
In this week’s edition:

We’ve added more data to LineupHQ to help you build better lineups. Color-coding has been added to the Smash column in NBA and Notorious’ Golfer Ratings in PGA.
The moneyline odds are now displayed in the player pool for MMA and tennis, two sports where winning an individual matchup is worth significant fantasy points.
Stevietpfl has added NASCAR teams to the player pool output so that users can group drivers more easily.

Interesting discussion on the Swolecast this week about Sports Cards vs. Digital Collectibles. Needless to say, not the results the guys were expecting. Wondering why fantasy football players should get into NFTs like NBA Top Shot? Check out the most recent Swolecast episode HERE.
