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.

Davis wrecked my lineups, so even though CJ held up his end of the bargain, Harden coming in well under made sure it was one of my worst nights doing this. Tonight will be better.

Beal

LeBron

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.

Poeltl was the highest owned, which was shocking because he was a dud with Aldridge out on Thursday and I didn’t use him at all. Reddish was second and CJ was third. Ownership on Davis and Ross was much lower than I expected. On to tonight!
