FanDuel NBA Breakdown – Game Stack

So when you are game stacking, much like with NFL you want to target the players in the best spots, from both teams, while no overexposing yourself. If you play six players from one game, and the game turns into a blowout, your lineup will have zero chance. This is a fine line, but if you walk it just right you can see yourself very deep in the green, and this is the key to taking down GPP’s.

For this slate I really like the Pelican/Houston game for stacking purposes. This game has a pretty high point total, will play at a fast pace, and has plenty of star power which always leads to more points. The obvious pieces are Harden, and Westbrook, but they are difficult to pair up together due to pricing. Jrue Holiday is also a great option, and he should continue to see a big bump in usage. I also mentioned P.J Tucker in the value plays section, and makes for a great salary relief option. Josh Hart is also a great value play that I did not talk about, but he seems to be one of the first players off the bench, and should get some decent minutes in that role.

The Philly and Detroit game is also a great game to stack up. I talked about a few players from that game already, in Ben Simmons, Al Horford, and we of course have Andre Drummond. Reggie Jacksons status is up in the air, and if he sits Derrick Rose is almost a must play, regardless of who you stack.
