NBA DraftKings Tips for 12/28/18

I will admit…last article…we flat out sucked. That will not get us down though for Friday night! There are 10 games going on tonight, and I feel very good about this balanced lineup. We are definitely going with a safe approach today, but I will only be in double-ups today. 

Brad Beal is going up against the Chicago Bulls without his fellow guard John Wall. At $7,800, Beal was my first choice. He will be looked upon to create a lot of scoring opportunities for the Wizards, and I think this game will be tightly contested. Beal averages 41 DK points a game, and this makes for an easy choice. 

I am rolling with the Kuz train again. LeBron is out for a few games, and Kuzma picked up the slack last night. He is priced at $7,700, and I look for him to have another great game against the high-scoring Clippers squad. Tobias Harris at $7,600 is another great option, as I think this game will be back and forth. The over/under is at 229.5…which I think is rather low. The LA teams will be chalky tonight. 

One guy I really like tonight is Aqua-Man…I mean Steven Adams. At $6,800, you get the second-best player on the Thunder (Paul George is out) and Adams will be going up against a bad Suns squad. His scoring will go up tonight, plus the Suns are one of the worst rebounding teams in the NBA…ranking 28th in total rebounds per game. 

Tyus Jones ($4,300) and Dario Saric ($4,700 are intriguing choices tonight. I expect the T’Wolves to go up early and play their second unit more. That’s why they call it gambling, you have to predict outcomes, and this one is likely. 

Good luck to everyone tonight! Go check us out on Twitter @thesportschief and ask us some NBA questions.
