DraftKings NBA core plays:

Many of the cash anchors can anchor GPP lines as well. However, there’s a lot of value out there if you’re willing to take some risks. Do keep in mind that you wont be able to use all five staples in the same lineup. These are just guidelines to help in your build.

This was requested by a loyal reader and avid sports bettor. I am going to try to predict the “trifecta” each night, as in the three highest scoring players on the slate. I have yet to hit all three, and only got two of them a couple of times.

Jokic broke the slate latst night. Towns was the tenth highest score center, so thanks for nothing dude. Trae was third. Collins was average. On to tonight!

Giannis

Harden

Davis

The same person who requested the trifecta also suggested that I try to project high ownership. This could be tricky, but here are the three I think will be highest owned, in no particular order.

Porzingis was the oly 50% owned player last night. Culver was second. I figured more would go with McLaughlin like I did most places. Towns was fourth. Schroder helped make me money since many didn’t use him. Towns burned 35.57% of people. On to tonight!

Harden (if Russ out), if not, Giannis

DiVincenzo

Anthony Davis
