The 2024-25 NBA season continues with an eight-game slate on Monday. With options in the NBA DFS player pool such as Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Anthony Edwards and James Harden available as NBA DFS picks, how should daily Fantasy basketball players form an NBA DFS strategy?

Before setting your NBA DFS lineups on sites like DraftKings and FanDuel for Monday, Feb. 24, you need to see what Mike McClure has to say.

McClure is a DFS professional with over $2 million in career winnings. He's also a predictive data engineer at SportsLine who uses a powerful prediction model that simulates every minute of every game 10,000 times, taking factors like matchups, statistical trends and injuries into account.

This allows him to find the best NBA DFS values and create optimal lineups that he shares only at SportsLine. They're a must-see for any NBA DFS player. 

On Friday, McClure highlighted Cavaliers guard Ty Jerome as an under-the-radar play as one of his top NBA DFS picks from the NBA DFS player pool on both sites. The result: Jerome had 19 points, three rebounds, two assists and two steals, returning 30.8 points on DraftKings and 30.6 points on FanDuel to return strong value for NBA DFS lineups. Anybody who included him in their lineups could have been well on the way to a profitable day!

For Monday, one of McClure's top NBA DFS picks is Nuggets center Nikola Jokic, who is listed at $12,000 on DraftKings and $12,800 on FanDuel. Another part of McClure's optimal NBA DFS strategy includes rostering 76ers guard/forward Kelly Oubre Jr. ($5,500 on DraftKings and $6,700 on FanDuel). Oubre had 14 points and five rebounds over 38 minutes on Saturday and will likely see an expanded role with Joel Embiid likely to undergo further testing in his knee. Tyrese Maxey (finger) is also questionable for an injured 76ers lineup.

McClure is also targeting a player who could go off for massive numbers on Monday! 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.
