Updates to come to this section as we approach lock, so continue to check back for more insight.
Hello everybody, and welcome back to another DFS Karma Game Theory article. Today there are a couple things to monitor regarding injuries and COVID-19 protocols, so be sure to keep your eyes peeled. For injury news, please make sure to check our injury article. Go peep my NBA DFS First Impression Video and see my thoughts on the slate in a general sense! This is a nicely sized slate with a good bit of injury news, so make sure to keep your eyes peeled.
Point Guards: Russell Westbrook, Luka Doncic are the top tier, De’Aaron Fox, Malcolm Brogdon and Ben Simmons are mid tier, Derrick White and Sterling Brown are the lower tier value plays here. Tomas Satoransky on FD is very good value. They are all good in any format. Ton of great plays on this big slate.
Shooting Guards: James Harden is a great play here without Kyrie Irving. Plenty of value to fit him in today. Caris Levert is a LOCK on FanDuel. Buddy Hield, Andrew Wiggins, Paul George, are all good options. I think I’ll have a lot of Harden/Levert.
Small Forwards: Kawhi is solid in what should be a competitive game, Jaylen Brown, Kevin Porter Jr., and Will Barton are my top SF plays. Keeping my pool small here.
Power Forwards: Giannis Antetokounmpo is in a great spot. Should be competitive. I think if you run Giannis you have to look at Ben Simmons or Tobias Harris, who is also a fantastic PF play. Sabonis is great for tournaments, as is Tatum. Tatum has a limited ceiling though. I will be looking at Boucher, Draymond Green, and Lauri Markannen in GPPs as well. This is an absolutely loaded position. Daniel Theis is good value, and Marcus Morris is elite if Serge Ibaka sits (he should start regardless).
Centers: Another loaded spot. Nikola Jokic is elite but hard to fit. Richaun Holmes without Bagley is prime! Jakob Poeltl is in a smash spot as well. Richaun is by far my favorite.
CORE 3 for CASH: Caris Levert (FD), James Harden, Richaun Holmes
MY CORE 3 for GPP: Tomas Satoransky, Will Barton, Daniel Theis
That is all for today’s article! I appreciate you guys all for reading and as always, it’s been your boy Tristan aka SrirachaDFS, and I’m out, peace!
