NBA DFS: Nikola Jokic and Optimal FanDuel, DraftKings Daily Fantasy Basketball rosters for August 30, 2020 – CBS Sports

The 2020 NBA playoffs take place on Sunday with three games on the schedule. The Celtics will face the Raptors in Game 1 of a second-round series, while the Clippers will face the Mavericks and the Nuggets will face the Jazz in potential first-round elimination matches. There’s a lot at stake in daily NBA fantasy tournaments, cash games, and 50-50s at sites like FanDuel and DraftKings. And the NBA DFS player pool is filled with stars like Jayson Tatum, Pascal Siakam, Kawhi Leonard, Luka Doncic, Jamal Murray and Donovan Mitchell.

But offering top players like that into your NBA DFS rosters also means you need to find value lower in the daily NBA Fantasy price list. And that can be a tall order as you deepen the playoffs and teams are knocked out of the pool. Before you enter any daily NBA fantasy contests on Sunday, be sure to see NBA DFS top picks, player pool, and grassroots picks from Mike McClure, a DFS pro who has won nearly $ 2 million. dollars.

McClure is also a Predictive Data Engineer at SportsLine who uses a powerful prediction model that simulates every minute of every game 10,000 times, taking into account factors such as games, statistical trends and injuries. This allows him to find the best NBA DFS values ​​and create optimal rosters that he only shares at SportsLine. They are a must have for any NBA DFS player.

McClure made it through the 2018-19 NBA season, producing several rosters that led to huge returns for fans, including up to 40x on FanDuel and 84x on DraftKings. He again saw several huge wins at the start of the 2019-20 NBA season and started 2020 with an optimal roster returning at least 7x to DraftKings for three of the first five days of the new year. He has come back 4x or more several times since that point. Anyone who follows him has seen huge returns.

Now he has turned his attention to Sunday’s NBA DFS slate. Head over to SportsLine to see his top NBA DFS picks.

McClure’s Top NBA DFS Picks For August 30

For Sunday’s NBA playoff roster, McClure is high on Nuggets forward Nikola Jokic at $ 9,500 on DraftKings and $ 9,300 on FanDuel. Denver, losing 3-2 in its series against Utah, is looking to avoid elimination. That means a lot of minutes and is looking for Denver’s best player Jokic in that winning or home game.

Jokic has been extremely productive from a fantastic daily standpoint this series. He has passed 45 points on DraftKings in four of the five games. He was perhaps at his best in Game 5, scoring 31 points, collecting six rebounds and distributing four assists to help the Nuggets extend the streak. McClure is looking for more of the same from him on Sunday, which makes him a smart choice for NBA DFS rosters.

McClure’s NBA DFS strategy also includes listing Mavericks guard Trey Burke for $ 4,800 on DraftKings and $ 5,000 on FanDuel. He’s had an ankle problem, but McClure expects him to be on the floor as Dallas look to extend their streak against the Clippers. Kristaps Porzingis (knee) is officially ruled out, so Dallas will look for an offense from different locations. Luka Doncic’s ankle also hurt, so Burke could see a few more minutes if Doncic is under 100%.

Burke has averaged just 7.4 points in the regular season, but has scored in double digits scoring his last four games, including an average of 20 in his last two outings. Despite that production, it costs $ 5,000 or less at both sites, so be sure to lock it up as one of your top NBA DFS picks for that slate.

How to set up your NBA DFS rosters for August 30

McClure is also targeting another player who has a dream game on Sunday. The stars align to give him 50 or even 60 points on DraftKings and FanDuel. This choice could be the difference between winning your tournaments and your gambling or going home with nothing. You can only see who it is here.
