NBA DraftKings & FanDuel DFS Primer

NBA DFS Core Plays

Nikola Jokic (C – DEN)

• DraftKings: $12,500
• FanDuel: $12,800

Nikola Jokic has simply been on another plane lately. He has scored 104 total points with 30 rebounds, 16 assists and four steals with six total three-pointers across the past two games against the defensively-challenged Atlanta Hawks and Washington Wizards.

Against the Clippers, he has an opponent rank of 24, so there is another good opportunity for Jokic to put up another gigantic stat line on Friday night.

Brandon Miller (SG, SF – CHA)

• DraftKings: $9,000
• FanDuel: $8,100

Brandon Miller should get all of the run he wants with LaMelo Ball (calf) and Tre Mann (back) sidelined. Miller has scored 25+ points in all four games in December, while he is working on a five-game streak with three or more three-pointer makes.

Miller also has six or more rebounds in four of the past six games and seven of the previous 10 outings, while going for three or more assists in 12 of the past 14 contests. Miller is money well spent, as he contributes in a multitude of ways.

Donovan Mitchell (PG, SG – CLE)

• DraftKings: $8,900
• FanDuel: $9,100

Donovan Mitchell and the Cavaliers should go off against the Washington Wizards’ leaky defense. They are allowing 123.9 points per game (PPG), which ranks 30th in the NBA. Teams are hitting 48.5% from the field and 37.4% from behind the three-point line against them. Both of those marks are 27th in The Association.

Mitchell went for 19 points with seven assists, five rebounds, three steals and four three-pointers in the most recent rout of the Wizards in NBA Cup group play on December 3rd. He scored 30 points on 11-of-18 shooting with six triples, five assists, four rebounds and four steals on October 26th in D.C.

NBA DFS Cash Game Targets

Darius Garland (PG – CLE)

• DraftKings: $7,500
• FanDuel: $6,700

Darius Garland is a strong play against the Wizards and a Cleveland stack is not a bad idea against Washington. Garland went for 23 points with five rebounds and five assists while dropping in two triples last time out in Miami on Sunday.

Garland played just 17 minutes against Washington in their most recent meeting, going for 12 points and two three-pointers. However, he was an efficient 9-of-11 from the field with four three-pointers, finishing with 23 points, five assists, two rebounds and two steals in 24 minutes back on October 26 in D.C.

Paul George (SF, PF – PHI)

• DraftKings: $8,000
• FanDuel: $8,400

Paul George gets a crack against his former team. The Pacers have an opponent rank of 26, so George should be able to put up some strong numbers. George is coming off a bit of a stinker in Chicago, going for just 12 points on 6-of-13 shooting with seven rebounds, two assists and a blocked shot.

George had 21+ points and eight or more rebounds in the first two games of December, however. If he gets to those numbers he’ll be well worth the bread.

Pascal Siakam (PF, C – IND)

• DraftKings: $8,100
• FanDuel: $7,400

Pascal Siakam had a single-digit point total last time out against the Charlotte Hornets, struggling with his shot. However, while he was just 3-of-8 from the field, he made up for it with a season-best 11 rebounds, three assists and two steals in 34 minutes.

In his first meeting with Philadelphia, Siakam went for 17 points on 7-of-11 shooting with six assists and five rebounds while adding a pair of three-pointers.

NBA DFS GPP Targets

Jarrett Allen (C – CLE)

• DraftKings: $6,800
• FanDuel: $7,500

Jarrett Allen was a very efficient 5-of-6 for 11 points, three rebounds, two steals and an assist in 25 minutes against Washington in NBA Cup play. He was 10-of-10 for 23 points and five boards in 25 minutes in Washington in their regular-season meeting on October 26. Again, a Cleveland stack against the very giving Washington Wizards cannot lose.

Norman Powell (SG, SF – LAC)

• DraftKings: $6,300
• FanDuel: $6,700

Norman Powell has been exceeding his DFS salary expectations more often than not lately, going for 17+ points in five straight outings. He was good for 30 points on 11-of-15 from the field in NBA Cup play on Tuesday against Portland. He is averaging 25 points, 3.4 assists, 2.7 rebounds and 3.7 three-pointers made per game in three contests since flipping the calendar from November to December.

Santi Aldama (PF – MEM)

• DraftKings: $5,600
• FanDuel: $6,600

Santi Aldama is a little more valuable on DraftKings than on FanDuel. He is coming off an impressive 19-point effort last time out against Washington. He has 15+ points in five of his previous six performances. Aldama is working on a streak of 11 straight games with at least one three-pointer, too.

NBA DFS Value Plays

Max Christie (SF – LAL)

• DraftKings: $4,000
• FanDuel: $4,400

With LeBron James sidelined for a second consecutive game due to a sore left foot, Max Christie is expected to be in the starting five for a second straight outing. Christie was good for just four points on a 1-of-6 shooting night against the Trail Blazers last time out, but he is averaging a respectable 8.2 points, 4.0 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.0 steals per game in five December contests. He has hit a total of five three-pointers in the month, too.

Mark Williams (C – CHA)

• DraftKings: $5,100
• FanDuel: $4,700

Mark Williams no longer appears on the injury report due to a foot injury that cost him Sunday’s game. The Bulls have an opponent rank of 26, so Williams could hit the ground running in this one. He scored a season-high 12 points on a perfect 5-of-5 shooting last time out against Cleveland on Saturday.

Caris LeVert (PG, SG – CLE)

• DraftKings: $4,700
• FanDuel: $5,300

Caris LeVert is a better value on DraftKings than on FanDuel. Against the Wizards, though, he is a strong option at a low salary. LeVert is averaging 12.8 points per game in five December games, including 10 points with three assists, two rebounds and a steal against the Wizards on December 3rd in NBA Cup play. He also had 10 points in 19 minutes with a pair of triples in their first meeting.
