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.

Lillard didn’t even finish in the top ten at the position last night, so he was a huge dud. Westbrook was fourth behind Harden, LaVine, and Simmons. LMA was sixth. Lillard’s terrible night was was a total buzzkill. On to tonight!

Young

Sabonis

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.

I did hit Aldridge as the highest owned at 42.92%. Wagner and Korkmaz were just 12.39% and 13.65% respectively. Gallo and LaVine were second and third last night. Let’s try again!
