DFS NBA DraftKings Lineup Advice 5/20/19
Been a while my friends. While I’ve been gone I’ve been pondering many things, mainly how to finish in the money on NBA Showdown on DraftKings. I think I’ve figured it out, so without further ado, some picks.

Top Plays (Captain)
Steph Curry (Golden State) $16,800 @ Portland
There are only two picks one can make here, Steph and Draymond. Draymond is cheaper at the Captain price tag by $900, so I get if you want to go there. I choose Steph because with KD out he is taking it upon himself to make it happen for the Warriors. Remember the talk of the Warriors dynasty crumbling? Sans KD and Boogie, Steph is single handedly erasing that talk.
Others to consider:Â
Draymond Green $15,900, Damian Lillard $15,300 (contrarian), Klay Thompson $12,600 (Ultra Contrarian)

Zach Collins (Portland) $3,200 vs. Golden State
To win at Showdown you have to nail your Value Picks. No if’s, and’s, or but’s. I know Game 3 was a Myers Leonard game, but that has raised Myers’s price over Collins by $2,200. Kanter is not getting the run he was getting in previous series this postseason, and aside from one terrible game Collins has been consistent.

Others to consider:Â
Seth Curry $3,400 vs. Golden State, Kevon Looney $4,600 @ Portland, Mo Harkless $6,000 vs. Golden State
Neva Plays
Damian Lillard (Portland) $10,200 vs. Golden State
If you want to put him in the captain slot I get it, but playing Dame at all in this series is risky. He’s hurt and has not reached 5x value once. I prefer to stock up on Warriors with maybe a touch of CJ McCollum here.
