NBA DFS Picks & Playbook for Today’s Games: Friday, March 1st
Published: Mar 01, 2024
Welcome to the first NO LATE SWAP slate on DraftKings of the year. FanDuel folks still have the ability to edit their lineups but the strategy on DraftKings will be changing when it comes to lineup construction.
We talked about that strategy on the NBA DFS Preview Show which I suggest you watch each and every day to get you ready for the days slate. This seven game slate starts at 7pm ET and the late games are 8pm ET start times. Hopefully we get the all the necessary injury news prior to the 7pm roster lock.

Make sure to check out today's NBA DFS projections and NBA DFS ownership projections before finalizing your lineups today. We also have the NBA Consistency Report to help identify players that have exceeded value based on their current price tag this season and of course our NBA DFS Lineup Generator!
