FanDuel NBA Breakdown: Favorites and Final Thoughts

Tonight feels like a night for Stars and Scrubs with all of the high-priced superstars on this slate and all of the values that we have at each position. I want to take advantage of this early season soft pricing and jam in as many top plays as possible in both my cash and GPP builds.

More from DFS

I’m paying up at point guard, power forward, and center in cash games and my favorite pay up spot in GPPs will be shooting guard with the trio of Beal, LaVine, and Booker all being potentially elite plays.

There’s no more “drop score” on Fanduel, but that doesn’t mean we still can’t be aggressive with lineup builds and use “stars and scrubs” approaches on nights when we have value. Pack as many high-ceiling plays as you can into these GPP lineups tonight!

Here are a few of my other favorites for tonight’s slate.

My favorite overall play on the slate: Luke Doncic

My favorite value play: Tyler Herro

My favorite guy to fade in all formats: Nikola Jokic

My favorite guy I didn’t mention yet in this article: Andre Drummond
