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

Favorite Five WrestleMania Shows

Professional wrestling is fascinating to me. While bemoaned by many, pro wrestling surprisingly has had multiple boom periods. Professional wrestling helped usher in the early television era (think DuMont Network) thanks to performers like Gorgeous George. The two other times professional wrestling was pop culture chic, it was Vince McMahon at the helm. Most recently, was the period that is refereed to as “The Attitude Era”. Those in their 30s-40s fondly remember the era that birthed legends: “Stone Cold” Steve Austin, “The Rock”, “D-Generation X” (of course what Eric Bichoff did with WCW and the success of the nWo). Similar to NASCAR during the same time period, pro wrestling was a television ratings and ad revenue darling. However, before the heights

USA vs. Mexico & CONCACAF World Cup Qualifying

Here we are. It is the final stretch of World Cup Qualifying with nothing truly decided. The only thing for sure is that there will be a team from CONCACAF deserving of a Finals appearance who will narrowly miss out. Being a USMNT fan, I speak from memory of the Trinidad & Tobago 2018 debacle. While results have been promising for the red, white, & blue this go around, faltering at the finish line is unacceptable. Hopefully it will not come to needing a result in the final qualifier to get through. But all the teams that are still eligible for a trip to Qatar are stressing. The reality is that in CONCACAF anything can happen. Canada vs. Costa Rica While I

The Wild, Wild AFC West

The 2022 NFL offseason has been wild. One could argue that this has been the craziest NFL offseason ever. Trades and free agent acquisitions have turned the AFC West into an arms race. Which teams are making the right deals? Let's dive into the wild, wild AFC West. Denver Broncos The Denver Broncos got the party started by acquiring Russell Wilson from Seattle, in exchange for their future, or so it seems. Denver traded away QB Drew Lock, TE Noah Fant, DL Shelby Harris, and draft capitol consisting of two first-round picks, two second-round picks and a fifth-round pick. That’s quite a haul for Wilson. Was it worth it? Los Angeles Chargers The Los Angeles Chargers acquired Khalil Mack from the Chicago Bears for

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
