NBA DraftKings Tips for 2/13/19
Welcome back to The Sports Chief. With the All-Star Game around the corner, we had to get some DFS action going on this Wednesday. I will be playing a tournament strategy tonight with a little risk, and hopefully our viewers will walk away with some cash. Here we go!
I will be anchoring my team with Karl Anthony-Towns tonight at $10,300. With the over/under at 231.5 and the fact that Kenneth Faried will be on Towns most of the night, I think Karl is a safe bet to get a double-double and some major points. I wanted stability in my big men tonight, and I got one of the best.
The Memphis/Chicago game intrigues me. I have the frontcourt for the Grizzlies rolled out, and I feel like Jaren Jackson ($6,100) and Jonas Valunciunas ($4,200) match up well aganst the weaker frontcourt of the Bulls. Valanciunas looked like a beast in his Grizzlies debut and Jackson is a stretch 4 who can wreak havoc on Markkanen.
Another matchup I like tonight is Washington/Toronto. I have Bradley Beal at $8,700 and Jabari Parker at $5,400. Beal is a great scorer and is averaging 54 DK points in his last 4 outings. Jabari was a pure gut choice. He had a dud of a game in his last appearance…and this is why I am going with him. I hope to avoid the chalk and reap the massive value Parker will get me.
The bargain choice of the night is Marcus Smart at $4,800. Terry Rozier looks to be out and Smart will be tasked with primary ball handling duties. Smart is a guy who does everything well, and Reggie Jackson is a terrible defender.
