NBA DFS core plays:

Cash games are easier on because you don’t need to take any big risks. This is still a tough cash slate because of all the high-priced stars on it.

Cash game staples:

Markelle Fultz, Magic
James Harden, Rockets
Brandon Ingram, Pelicans
Julius Randle, Knicks
Richaun Holmes, Kings

Last year in most weeks the GPP options did so well that most of them could have been used in cash as well. That is the exception, not the rule. Some of these guys are cash game viable, but all are probably best used in GPP formats.

Elfrid Payton, Knicks
Buddy Hield, Kings
RJ Barrett, Knicks
Zion Williamson, Pelicans
Deandre Ayton, Suns

Stacks:

Pelicans
Suns
Raptors
Knicks (GPP only)
Rockets (GPP only)

Top value plays:

George Hill, Thunder
Tyrese Haliburton, Kings
Cam Johnson, Suns
Stanley Johnson, Raptors
Isaiah Roby, Thunder
