NBA DFS, 2024: Top FanDuel, DraftKings tournament picks, advice for Celtics vs. Mavericks Game 1 from a daily Fantasy pro
The 2024 NBA Finals begin on Thursday as the Boston Celtics host the Dallas Mavericks at TD Garden for Game 1 at 8:30 p.m. ET. Before setting your NBA DFS lineups on sites like DraftKings and FanDuel for Thursday, June 6, you NEED to see what Jimmie Kaylor has to say.
Kaylor is a DFS and betting expert for SportsLine, who won a DraftKings Millionaire Maker contest in 2022. He uses a combination of his background as a former college and professional athlete and his keen eye for statistical trends when making his picks and locking in his DFS lineups. Kaylor enters the 2024 calendar year with multiple five-figure tournament cashes on his DFS resume.
Kaylor's approach allows him to find the best NBA DFS values and create optimal lineups that he only shares on SportsLine. They're a must-see for any NBA DFS player.
On Thursday, Kaylor highlighted Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic as one of his top picks in his NBA DFS player pool on both sites. The result: Doncic had 36 points, 10 rebounds, five assists and two steals, returning 62.5 points on DraftKings and 57.5 points on FanDuel as the top scorer in the NBA DFS player pool. Anybody who included him in their lineups was well on the way to a profitable day.
For Thursday, one of Kaylor's top NBA DFS picks is Celtics forward Jayson Tatum. Another part of Kaylor's optimal NBA DFS strategy includes stacking Tatum with guard Derrick White. In his lone home game versus the Mavs this season, White was his typical stat-stuffing self with 13 points, eight assists, seven rebounds and two blocks. The two-time All-Defensive selection also has a knack for putting his best foot forward at the start of postseason series as White is averaging 20 points, six assists and 3.3 rebounds across Game 1s in the 2024 NBA playoffs.
Kaylor is also targeting a player who could go off for MASSIVE numbers on Thursday! This pick could be the difference between winning your tournaments and cash games or going home with nothing! You ABSOLUTELY need to see who it is before locking in any lineups.
