The GOAT! headchopper took down $1 million on FanDuel in Week 15, his second time winning a milly in the last two years. Congrats!
Chop was kind enough to answer some questions about the lineup in this interview article and make a video breaking it down HERE.
Also, look out for our special announcement from our DFS OGs (headchopper, Notorious and Beermakersfan) next week!

NICOLE’S KNOWLEDGE NUGGET
Late swap is a huge part of NBA DFS. You can take your entries files from DraftKings/FanDuel/Yahoo and upload them into the “Rebuild/Late Swap” section of LineupHQ. After making adjustments to your player pool, you can quickly rebuild all of your lineups and re-upload them to the sites. We have tutorial videos for each site, like THIS ONE for DraftKings.
TWITTER POLL RESULTS

Slight edge to Christmas Day over Thanksgiving, but we can all agree both are pretty great.
