The 2024-25 NBA season continues with a 12-game slate on Monday. With options in the NBA DFS player pool such as LaMelo Ball, Jaylen Brown and Scottie Barnes available as NBA DFS picks, how should daily Fantasy basketball players form an NBA DFS strategy?

Before filling out your NBA DFS lineups on sites like DraftKings and FanDuel for Monday, March 10, 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 Raptors guard/forward Scottie Barnes as one of his top NBA DFS picks from the NBA DFS player pool on both sites. The result: Barnes had 22 points, 12 rebounds, six assists, three blocks and two steals, returning 56 points on DraftKings and 57.4 points on FanDuel. 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 Bulls guard Josh Giddey, who is listed at $8,500 on DraftKings and $8,700 on FanDuel. Another part of McClure's optimal NBA DFS strategy includes rostering Mavericks forward Naji Marshall ($6,800 on DraftKings and $7,200 on FanDuel). Marshall had 34 points, nine rebounds and 10 assists in a 125-116 loss to the Suns on Sunday as he's taken on a prominent role since Kyrie Irving's torn ACL. The fifth-year veteran is averaging 28.3 points, 12.3 rebounds and 4.7 assists over his last three games. 

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.
