TWW: Tip Of The Week – April 25
It’s the Tip Of The Week (TOTW) and we’re looking for the best value for NBA daily fantasy in the NBA Playoffs. Key value plays for me this week are Jordan Clarkson, Mike Conley and Bojan Bogdanovic for the Jazz. Clarkson is currently $4,700 on DraftKings and he’s averaging 26 fantasy points per game. He’ll get you your x5 value. Mike Conley is currently priced at $5,400 and averages 28.7 fantasy points per game. Conley has a ceiling of 48 fantasy points. Also, we’re keeping the band together (stacking) with Bojan Bogdanovic. Bogdanovic has a ceiling of 50 fantasy points. The Jazz are in a tough series with Dallas, but have tremendous fantasy value. My "must have" this week is Jason Tatum
Tip Of The Week: February 28th
It’s the TOTW and we’re looking for the best value for NBA daily fantasy contests. A key value play is Jalen Suggs for Orlando. He’s only $5,400 on DraftKings, and has a decent matchup this week against the Pacers twice this week. Suggs should log over 30 min of gameplay and should be good for a double-double. On the flip side, Lance Stephenson has great value, too with a price at $4,500. Lance had an ankle injury last week, but should be cleared to play this week against the Magic. If Stephenson is a late scratch, pivot to Chris Duarte. My "must haves" this week are Ja Morant and Steven Adams. Ja is $9,700 on DK, but I look at as buying
TWW – Tip Of The Week
It’s the TOTW, and we’re tipping things off with some NBA, which resumes this week. A key value play is Seth Curry for Brooklyn. He’s only $6,000 on DraftKings, but has a tough matchup this week against Boston. Curry should log over 30 min of gameplay without Kyrie Irving in the lineup, so roster him up. I’m stacking Curry with Patty Mills. Mills is priced at $5,300, and has averaged 34 minutes of gameplay over the past five games. Klay Thompson is priced at $6,700 currently. His price tag is a little high, but he’s almost guaranteed to go off for over 30-point fantasy points this week. Klay is currently logging just under 30 minutes per game, and averaging 32.4 fantasy
The Daily Dose – April 21, 2020: “GRONK!”
The Beginning!
Iguodala’s Jersey Retirement is Absurd
Andre Iguodala (#9) celebrates with teammate Kevin Durant (#35) and HC Steve Kerr AP Photo By: Braeden Long (@brae_lonng) Andre Iguodala’s #9 will be retired and hung in the rafters at Golden State’s Chase Center after being traded to Memphis this past weekend. Iggy will share the honor with 10x NBA All-Star, 4x NBA scoring champion, 2x Finals MVP, 2x All-Star MVP, 2x NBA champion and former NBA MVP, Kevin Durant after being traded to Brooklyn. Yes, I added all of those stats to prove a point. The two are far from the same, but they both have won championships with the Warriors, so I guess that’s enough for a jersey retirement nowadays..? KD only served the Dubs
Why You Should Ditch Average Fantasy Apps for ThriveFantasy
By: Braeden Long Draft Kings and FanDuel have an implemented plan that draws the average player to play in DFS games with high hopes of getting rich. Sure, it’s more fun to watch sports when there’s money on the line, but how confident are you picking a perfect lineup to get dough? ThriveFantasy, unlike Draft Kings and FanDuel, is the perfect platform for the everyday fantasy player to place daily wagers confidently. Thrive doesn’t have nearly as many users as their competitors as of yet, so it’s much easier to win money. Don’t let fantasy platforms hook you in to enter massive contests with small bets ending in the rich getting richer. The DFS industry is projected to be a multibillion-dollar
2019 NBA Mock Draft: Post Early Entry Withdrawal Deadline
Photo by Streeter Lecka: Getty Images By: Lucas Vargas (Twitter: @lucasvargas44) The NBA Draft takes place this week on June 20th and underclassmen have chosen whether or not to remain in the draft or return to school. This draft may not have the deep star power of other classes but there are several players that can make an impact as role players to help teams immediately. Dylan Windler and Carsen Edwards are two names that stand out to me who could go late in the first round with chances to meaningfully contribute to playoff ready teams. With franchises concluding their prospect workouts and finalizing their draft boards, here are my predictions: 1. New Orleans Pelicans: Zion Williamson, Duke Blue Devils, Age 18
Is Bean Town In The LeBron James Sweepstakes?
The Right Call Isiah Collier: Contributor – The Wagner Wire Sounds crazy doesn’t it? The man who has had his fair share of battles with the Cs over his fifteen year career, could maybe play alongside his former teammate Kyrie Irving in Bean Town. We all know Houston and Los Angles have been on the Kings radar for quite some time. But the three time NBA Champion knows his time running the League is ticking, and he needs moves to be made happen sooner than later. Danny Ainge is as cutthroat of a General Manager that you will find in all of sports. Just ask two time All Star Isaiah Thomas. So how can The Cs throw themselves in the discussion? It starts
