There are only six games to talk about for NBA DFS tonight, but we have no shortage of value on this one. We are going to be rostering a lot of guys from the Minnesota – Celtics matchup, as we are getting some great price tags. We are looking at more of a balanced lineup for this one, with a few priorities in the $5,000 – $8,000 range. There is a lot of potential upside tonight, so we need a lineup that has massive potential.

Utility |
We saw Chris Paul return from a 15-game absence last time out, as he did not miss a beat with 46 FPTS in 30 minutes. Paul is coming in at a fantastic price tag of $7,200 tonight, so he is a priority for us. CP3 is averaging 41.2 FPTS on the season, and we know he has the upside to explode in competitive games. He should see a lot of minutes against the Sixers tonight, and his floor is a lot better when he is this underpriced.
We want to get some exposure to the Nets – Hornet’s matchup tonight, as we expect it to be a fast-paced shootout. Miles Bridges is a priority for us, as he is way too cheap at $7,300. Bridges is averaging 38.6 FPTS on the season, as he went over 50 FPTS in the last game. It is surprising that he was priced down $500 after being so productive last time out, but we are not going to complain about the savings here.
Here’s a Fade DFS Basketball 3/27/22 (using DraftKings Values)
We have some amazing options tonight at the top end, so we must be specific with who we spend up for. One guy who we are going to be fading here is Joel Embiid, who is looking at a tough matchup against the Phoenix Suns. Embiid is all the way up at $11,400 tonight, so we must sacrifice a lot to roster him.

• A starting guard who is too cheap here.
• One stud wing with a ton of upside.
• A few priorities from the Boston Celtics.
• Some general strategy for the slate.
Point Guard
Mike Conley – ($5,400 DK) Conley is a good DFS producer, and he always does a lot for this Jazz team in close games. We are going to really like getting to Conley whenever he is priced like this, as he is averaging 28.8 FPTS on the season. Conley has a ton of upside for this price point and a solid matchup tonight against the Dallas Mavericks.
Shooting Guard
Anthony Edwards – ($6,900 DK) Edwards always offers us some great upside, so he is a priority whenever he starts getting too cheap. Edwards is coming in at a fantastic price tonight, and he is going to be very easy to fit into our lineups with SG/SF eligibility. Edwards always takes on a ton of usage, and he is a guy you want to have when he is having one of his nights.
Deni Avdija – ($5,000 DK) Avdija has been showing a ton of upside in Kyle Kuzma’s absence, as he exploded for 42.5 FPTS last game. He has been playing over 30 minutes in close games, as his usage has seen a significant boost. Avdija can hit value in a lot of different ways, and he is another easy fit with dual-position eligibility.
Jayson Tatum – ($9,600 DK) Tatum is going to be one of our favorite spend-up options tonight, as he is coming in at a great price for a fantastic matchup against the Timberwolves. Tatum has been great over the past few weeks, consistently showing his 60 plus FPT upside.
Robert Williams – ($6,000 DK) We know that Al Horford is going to be sidelined for the Boston Celtics tonight, which means that the Timelord should be in for some extra minutes. Williams is coming in at a great price tonight, so he is a no-brainer given the good matchup. Williams went for 40 FPTS last game, and he has upside for an even bigger night in this spot.
General strategy
We really like going the balanced lineup route tonight, as we have some fantastic plays like Bridges and Paul that do not really fit into a traditional stars and scrubs build. We are going to be getting to a lot of the Celtics tonight, while Edwards and D’Angelo Russell are both priorities given where they are priced. Keep an eye on the news for this one, as we have had tons of big names ruled out over the past few slates.
