DFS NBA DraftKings Lineup Advice 2/21/19
Finally, after what seems like a year long hiatus we are back to NBA DFS, hooray! In the meantime, I dabbled in Hockey (not bad), and even threw in an entry for the Daytona 500 (terrible due to the Paul Menard crash which took out several of my racers). The next few weeks of the NBA season should be fast and furious. Let’s get going…

Top Plays
Steph Curry (Golden State) $9,000 vs. Sacramento
It’s hard to pick Warriors in DFS because of the blowout potential and the amount of stars on the team. One could argue for KD here, and/or Boogie with the revenge narrative. I like Steph because I don’t like the defense of De’Aaron Fox. Steph is putting up 59 fantasy points per game against the Kings this season, and whether it’s Fox, Buddy Hield or Yogi Ferrell (remember Iman Shumpert is long gone) there is nobody on the Kings who can guard Steph.
Others to consider:
James Harden $11,600 @ L.A. Lakers, Damian Lillard $8,600 @ Brooklyn, Devin Booker $7,700 @ Cleveland

Harrison Barnes (Sacramento) $4,700 @ Golden State
While the revenge narrative is in full effect here, that’s not why I like Harrison Barnes in this spot. Barnes put up 45.25 fantasy points against a tough Denver team right before the All Star Break, and while he might not come even close to that here he does not have to. If Barnes puts up 25 fantasy points against Golden State (he is averaging 27.4 fantasy points against them this season) he will have more than done his job, great value here!

Others to consider:
Marquese Chriss $4,500 @ Phoenix (would you want to live in Cleveland instead of Phoenix? I rest my case, super revenge!), Brook Lopez $4,500 versus Boston, Reggie Bullock $4,100 versus Houston
Neva Plays
Kyrie Irving (Boston) $9,200 @ Milwaukee
When you write this column every day, you begin to notice how redundant you sound. Kyrie Irving good, Eric Bledsoe’s defense very good. Kyrie Irving at 9,200 versus Milwaukee bad (he is only putting up 43.5 fantasy points a game against the Deer). Chance that I am wrong here 40%, I am fading him regardless.
