Daily Fantasy Lineup Advice March 25 Thirteen games on a Thursday evening means it's time to party. Here are some guys worth a look on March 25. The Studs DeMarcus Cousins, C ($9,700) Call him DMC, call him Boogie, this kid is scary good. Cousins bullied Philadelphia to post 33 and 17 with three assists, four steals, and four blocks-- good for 7 and a half Fantasy Points. That's about as high as anyone can get without having a triple double! The Kings visit the Suns next and while they may Read More
When setting your daily fantasy basketball lineups on say, FanDuel, you're going to need to identify which power forwards and centers to roster. Sometimes it's easy when you have enough value elsewhere in your lineup to roster Anthony Davis or DeMarcus Cousins, but sometimes you have to dig a little deeper to decide or break the tie between a couple of centers to pick just the right one. One way you can do this is by trying to identify who has the better floor to begin with. Points scored are Read More
Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Advice March 16, Sunday, 10 Games The Studs Russell Westbrook, PG ($12,600) While James Harden has considerably cooled recently, Russell Westbrook showed no signs of slowing down. Another triple-double in the last outing, his sixth in eight games, and a 65.5 FP performance. I'd still take my chances. Anthony Davis, PF ($11,000) He left in the early fourth in the game against Brooklyn but Davis passed a concussion test, prohibiting him from missing any Read More
For daily fantasy basketball lineup strategy, there are a number of factors that we've shown you so far in this research section that aid in your preparation, but one area I check regularly when finding the best possible matchups and targets to exploit is the area of free throw rate. Free throw rate is the frequency of fouls occurring, either by the team or the player you are researching. For example, per StatMuse.com, here is a list of free throw rate leaders for 2014-2015 season, set to a Read More
In daily fantasy basketball, there are two main goals to playing. One is to win, which likely means increasing your balance, and the other is not to go broke and have to deposit more. Having fun is the ultimate goal, of course, but winning is usually the tonic for fun, and going bust is no fun for anyone. So, with that in mind, one of the most frequent questions that gets passed along from new players in DFS is how much to play nightly and how to grow your financial footprint in your efforts. The Read More
Daily Fantasy Basketball Lineup Advice March 8, Sunday, 7 games: The Studs Russell Westbrook, PG ($12,000) A bit pricey but production is like getting two persons in one: 82, 76, 95, 66, the past four. Enough said. Steph Curry, PG ($9,500) Steph Curry, like only a handful of guys, is seemingly immune to stinkers. The NBA's most dynamic shooter has only one 30-fantasy point game in the past 10, and the others were either in the 40's or 50's. Not a bad investment, if you ask me. Victor Read More
Here are some quality options for Friday's 12-game slate: The Studs James Harden, SG ($10,400) Did you really expect me to mention someone else? After serving a one-game suspension because of kicking LeBron James in the groin, the Beard picked up where he left off and dropped an 18-point, 13-assist double-double against Memphis. This Friday, the 2015 MVP frontrunner is facing the sixth-worst team in stopping shooting guards, Detroit Pistons. Draftkings actually cut Harden's salary by $100 Read More

This in-depth article will help educate beginners to the world of daily fantasy sports (DFS). It will show you the thought process of a professional DFS player, and the intricacies needed to build an effective NBA daily fantasy basketball lineup. With the all star breakup upon us, I am stepping back and analyzing my nightly process since I have the time to do so. I figured the best way for me to help is to walk you through how I do my own rosters, so that you can see the thought process, tweak Read More
If you want to be a fantasy basketball rockstar, you have to pay your dues. Nobody can be naturally good at something so that means you have to work hard for it. Even if some are born smart, they still have to use that brain of theirs to be good at something.
So what's the point? Because you do want to earn money easy (I presumed that's why you're here in the first place), you have to spend time on it. Once you've figured out the initial flurry, you'll be able to handle everything well.
