OK, I know it's early in the season but we have to do this nonetheless. Some of the guys are playing so poorly we can't blame owners if they have gotten rid of them already. (Hello, Nikola Jokic!) Some, however, are just "beasting" from out of nowhere and some of them are probably available in your leagues you have got to drop someone for these surprise studs. Stock Up Joel Embiid, C, Philadelphia 76ers If there are any questions about how good Joel Embiid is, I reckon all of them are answered Read More
NBA DFS Basketball Value Picks-- Nov. 13, 2016 The Studs Kemba Walker, PG, Charlotte Hornets ($7,900) There's no other Russell Westbrook, but in the past few games, Walker is doing his best Russ impression. And at a less than $3,000 price tag, he is worth every penny. In the past three games, Walker averaged over 53 fantasy points that culminated in a 61-FP performance vs the Toronto Raptors. The Hornets draw Cleveland in their next game, but I doubt the Cavs defense could do something against Read More
Best NBA DFS Value Picks-- November 5, 2016 The Studs Giannis Antetokounmpo, PG, Milwaukee Bucks ($9,500) Of course, the biggest studs from around here are Russell Westbrook and James Harden but if you're looking for somebody cheaper, The Greek Freak ain't so bad.

Chris Paul, PG, LA Clippers ($8,100) CP3 may be the most productive player Read More

NBA DFS Basketball Value Picks Oct. 28 The Studs Steph Curry, PG, Golden State Warriors (vs Pelicans), $9,300 Do you really think the Warriors are going to lose two games in a row to start the season? And Steph Curry putting up only 30.3 fantasy points the next game? I can't really imagine another scenario other than Curry and the gang smoking the Pelicans while the two-time MVP catching fire en route to a 45-50 FP game. I can pretty much say the same for Kevin Durant but KD is $300 more expensive Read More
