Our final lesson in this course will look at bench players. There is a common adage in NBA DFS to never target players coming off the bench, as they don’t necessarily give you the minutes you need to build a successful lineup.

Below are the numbers related to that specific scenario broken down by over/under and by actual performance of that player off the bench.
