Top Bargain Plays 2/1/2016

There are many things you have to do when creating the perfect team. Looking for value is is the number one priority. Luckily with all the injuries and sicknesses, it is easier than ever to find the best value plays. Here is a break down of todays #8Ball value plays:

1) Norris Cole ( FD $4,700 )
With Eric Gordon injuring his ring finger (out for at least a month) an extra guard slot was open in the pelicans rotation. They brought up Norris Cole to fill the roles of a starting PG. Cole has accumulated an average of 30 minutes play time over his last 7 games. Being on the court for over half the game makes a huge opportunity for him to reach and exceed value. Over his last 7 games he is averaging 22 Fantasy points per game! With Gordon out once again look for Cole to reach and even exceed value!

2) Aaron Gordon ( FD $4,500 )
Gordon has seen the court for an average of 32 minutes over his last 7 games. For his price and time in the game, he can reach value easily. Playing PF sets him up for multiple rebounds and even blocks making him blow up the stat sheet. Over his last 5 games he has reached 20+ fantasy points with ease and last game he went off for 47.3 FANTASY POINTS ! Lets see how he follows his huge game, he should reach value, watch him tonight !

3) Willie Cauley-Stein ( FD $4,100 )
Demarcus Cousins will be sidelined for tonights game opening up the floor for Cauley-Stein. Usually big Boogie Cousins steals all the boards from Willie but tonight he is alone in the paint and should rack up 30 minutes of play time. Cauley-Stein averages just around 30 fantasy points when he plays 30+ minutes. He may be a sneaky play tonight and possibly be low owned in tourneys.

4) Myles Turner ( FD $5,200 )
If you haven't been keeping an eye on the young Myles Turner, you have been missing good basketball. Turner has been a beast over his last 7 games. The totals for those games have been 41.4, 26.8, 45.6, 30.2, 24.2, 28.7 and 30.3 fantasy points. For someone to be under $5,500 salary, he has been killing it. Watch for Turner to exceed value once again tonight as he's been doing for 90% of his games. Tonight he goes against the Cavs who have allowed 18.9 Pts 9.6 Reb and 2.9 Ast to opposing PF for an average of 33 fantasy points.

How To Manage Your Bankroll 1/28/2016

Play our lineups smart and use them the 8 ball way. This means being smart with your bankroll (Money that you have). One main rule we play by is something we like to call "Don't sink the 8". In pool you knock down all your balls then the 8 at the end to win. Similarly the colored balls on the table represent how much percent you should play 50-50s and double ups (75-85%) and the 8 Ball represents the percentage of your bankroll you should use in tournaments, quintuple ups and leagues (15-20%) The advantage of 50-50's is that they offer a higher chance for you to make profit which makes them must plays for team 8 ball. The second part of bankroll management, is to have a consistent amount that you play. This amount does not matter, as long as you are comfortable. Be prepared to lose whatever you play. We don't lose often, but it does happen. Some parts of the game we can't control such as injuries, ejection and even a player just playing terrible, but that aside we promise you slow and consistent flow of profit. We recommend you play by our 8 ball rule and you should be just fine! We are glad to have you on board with team 8 ball! Our team is consistent in answering any questions you may have , feel free to contact us !

Best DFS NBA Bargains For 1/27/2016

1) Archie Goodwin ( FD $4,100 )
 
Goodwin has been a great fill in option for the Knight-less Suns. Over his last 3 games he has averaged 34.6 fantasy points! For his price tag those are amazing numbers and look for him to go 20+ today. Tonight he goes against the Cleveland Cavaliers and even with a potential blowout look for Archie to do some damage. Cavaliers aren't the greatest at defending point guards and are giving up 21.3 Pts 5.4 Reb and 7.9 Ast making him a perfect bargain for tonight. 

2) Nik Stauskas ( FD $3,600 )

With injuries to Sampson and Canaan a window of oppurtunity has been opened for Nik. Last game he got 15 Pts 4 Reb 4Ast and a Steal over 38 mins for a total of 27.8 Fantasy Points. Canaan and Sampson are likely not to play alowing Nik to start and get tons of minutes tonight. Look for him to reach value with his next to cheap price tag!

3) Spencer Hawes ( FD $4,000 )

With the absence of their main center, the Hornets have looked at Hawes to fill in the role. He hasn't disappointed one bit! Over his last 3 games he has averaged 29.5 Fantasy Points! Amazing value and a nice GPP play. Tonight he faces off against Gobert who has an edge over him but Hawes tallied 25+ against Vucevic, Lopez and even the big men Boogie and Cauley-Stein in Sacramento!
