NBA DFS Deep Dive for DraftKings and FanDuel | 2/6/21

We will have value plays here as well but it’s hard to know who to target until we find out if Durant is playing and what the Nets’ starting lineup is.Top DraftKings NBA DFS Picks: James HardenTop FanDuel NBA DFS Picks: James HardenThis side of the game isn’t any clearer than the Nets’ side of the game. Fatigue is a potential issue was well since Raptors’ players logged heavy minutes against the Nets last night.Top DraftKings NBA DFS Picks: NoneTop FanDuel NBA DFS Picks: NoneLike with most of these teams to open the slate, we don’t know the status of a key player. He takes away from everybody else’s production if he’s in and I don’t like Young in the context of this slate with better stars to pay up for.Top DraftKings NBA DFS Picks: NoneTop FanDuel NBA DFS Picks: NoneAs long as this game stays close Giannis Antetokounmpo is going to see big minutes. While that numbers will move a bit, I am sure I will get some exposure to Middleton now that he’s priced below $8,000 again.Top DraftKings NBA DFS Picks: Giannis Antetokounmpo, Khris MiddletonTop FanDuel NBA DFS Picks: Giannis Antetokounmpo, Khris MiddletonThe center minutes for Cleveland are a nightmare. I will likely get him into 20-25% of my lineups for the upside.Top DraftKings NBA DFS Picks: Andre DrummondTop FanDuel NBA DFS Picks: Andre DrummondShocking that we have more injuries that we are dealing with in this game as LaMarcus Aldridge remains out for the Spurs while Dejounte Murray is questionable to play. Of the trio, Cousins is the guy that I think should get rostered in FanDuel cash and he’s my highest priority on DraftKings as well.Top DraftKings NBA DFS Picks: DeMarcus CousinsTop FanDuel NBA DFS Picks: DeMarcus CousinsDue to all the injuries on the Thunder side of this game, I am not really sure how this game has a betting line. I would get to Naz Reid but he’s already priced up since KAT has missed enough time that the salary is adjusted.Top DraftKings NBA DFS Picks: Malik Beasley, Ricky RubioTop FanDuel NBA DFS Picks: Malik Beasley, Ricky RubioThe Thunder played with a short rotation last night and it led to a ton of value. I never would have thought a situation could arise that had Kenrich Williams as a top value play yesterday.Top DraftKings NBA DFS Picks: TBDTop FanDuel NBA DFS Picks: TBDThis is the rematch of a game we saw a few days ago that winded up with a final total of 163 points. Both are strong plays for me in a favorable matchup and I’ll get my value from teams like OKC and Brooklyn which should have great cheap options available when the dust settles.Top DraftKings NBA DFS Picks: Luke Doncic, Kristaps Porzingis Top FanDuel NBA DFS Picks: Luke Doncic, Kristaps Porzingis Kyle Anderson continues to pick up ownership and I don’t understand it. This slate looks like it will setup as heavy stars and scrubs so I will likely have the salary to move up to get to the higher priced guys like Doncic and Harden instead of going to Morant.Top DraftKings NBA DFS Picks: NoneTop FanDuel NBA DFS Picks: NoneThis is more of a fun game to watch than for DFS. I’ll watch this game for entertainment purposes while avoiding it for DFS.Top DraftKings NBA DFS Picks: NoneTop FanDuel NBA DFS Picks: NoneDetroit is playing on the tail end of a back-to-back as 14-point underdogs against the Lakers. This is a really tough spot and one of the rare games that I think is pretty likely to end in a blowout with starters playing limited minutes.Top DraftKings NBA DFS Picks: NoneTop FanDuel NBA DFS Picks: NoneThis is a spot that the Lakers should ease up on the playing time for Anthony Davis and LeBron James.
