Happy hump day and welcome to the Rise & Grind, your daily article to keep you in the loop of everything DFS. Before we dive into tonight’s enormous 11-game NBA slate, let’s take a look back to last night and see who dodged the necessary bullets to scoop up all the big bucks.

Wednesday’s BIG Winners

In FanDuel’s $350K Tue NBA Shot, chenman030415 woke up to some big piles of cash. The winning lineup hit a staggering 366.30, taking down the entire tournament and walking away with a toasty $50,000!

The green started with Dennis Schroder, who had a nice game for his price, racking up 28 real points with six treys to start chenman030415’s night with 35.4 FD points.

Next, Seth Curry had himself a day, taking advantage of Dirk Nowitzki being out because of an Achilles injury, and Deron Williams with a strained left calf. It was finally Seth’s turn, and he didn’t waste any time, compiling 23 real life points and 11 other peripherals, totaling up for 38.8 FD points.

Finally, C.J. McCollum exploded against the Pheonix Suns, flying all over the court, knocking down shots, snagging boards and dishing dimes all the way to a slammin’ 53.7 FD points.

Wanna see who else was on the squad? Take a gander below:

Moving on to DraftKings NBA $300K TAFT, b7kahuna found himself in the top spot in this one, edging out our good friend Assani on their way to counting out the $30,000 prize on their kitchen table.

Their lineup began with Andrew Wiggins, who had a game and half, scoring 36 points and a crazy total of six three-pointers made. Wiggins also tacked on eight rebounds on his way to 57.5 DK points.

Next, Anthony Davis found his way diving into another 50+ fantasy point finish, this time against the Sacramento Kings. Davis did his usual taking over the offense deal, ending the night with 36 actual points, eight rebounds, two assists and a steal for a combined DK score of 56 points.

Finally, Mr. Tyus Jones, yes…I said Tyus Jones, had himself a game too, stuffing the stat sheet with 12 points, five boards, seven treys and five steals. Don’t have a calculator? No problem; his final tally was 38.25 DraftKings points to cement b7kahuna with the W.
