Welcome everyone to the NBA DFS playbook for the slate today! It is Halloween so look out for the ghost and ghouls in your lineup! We have a nice four game slate on our hands. While you all handout candy be sure to tune into the games at scattered times throughout tonight.

 

 

 

First game on the slate features the Milwaukee Bucks at the Memphis Grizzlies. The Milwaukee Bucks are needing a win badly coming off a three-game losing streak. Next game is the Texas showdown with the Houston Rockets against the Dallas Mavericks. The San Antonio Spurs are against the Utah Jazz. Night cap features Phoenix Suns against the Los Angeles Clippers. 

Some of the teams will be coming off a back-to-back so will see players sit? Injuries are slowly starting to come into effect with injuries popping up on the slate. Halloween might be a nightmare, but we have the breakdown below for this slate!

Before actually diving into the meat and potatoes, welcome to NBA DFS. 

If this is your first time reading our column on NBA DFS picks, I just want to welcome you and give you a few tips and tricks on what you should be looking for each night.

  • News outlets: reliable sources that give us injury news & starting lineups
  • Pace of play: who's playing fast vs. who's playing slow. Which teams get a pace-up spot (more possessions) vs. pace-down (fewer possessions)
  • Usage rates: is a percentage of how many plays that player is being used in
