NBA DFS Picks – Core Plays for Sunday, 11/30

Basketball court

We are one day from December, which is my favorite month of the year. Surely, I am not alone in that regard. We get gifts and get to spend extra time with family, and hopefully we can get a nice gift (of money) at DraftKings and FanDuel to get the clock ticking in style.

Sunday’s slate starts earlier than usual and there should be some news to monitor, so be sure to stay ahead of it. Let’s get to my top NBA DFS picks for this slate:

DraftKings NBA Core

  • Onyeka Okongwu ($7.2k)
  • Immanuel Quickley ($6.9k)
  • Sandro Mamukelashvili ($4.3k)
  • Payton Pritchard ($6.6k)

Update: Derrick White is OUT. Jaylen Brown may be the best spend of the slate now. Pritchard looks too good to fade. We can entertain Simons and other Boston value, too.

No Porzingis, Barrett, or Poeltl on this slate, so this gets us off to a nice start. I’ll have interest in even more Raptors (gulp) and I also will want to play Jalen Johnson.

Need more news before we can finalize anything. Philly will also be a pretty good source of value, while Maxey stands out as a great stud.

FanDuel NBA Core

  • Mamu
  • Onyeka
  • Quickley
  • Pritchard

Update: Coward out, Pritchard in. Would try to get to Jaylen, too.

More games on FD and Coward is in one of the extra ones. He’s too cheap for his current role. Otherwise its the same core as DK for now. Luka could be a priority spend if LeBron is out (questionable), while Reaves would also get a huge boost.

Pels played last night, so Zion should sit. That should open up value and Queen would also look really good. NAW also looks solid and Miles McBride is a fair value on both sites.

Jalen/Maxey look like the preferred spends right now, but I won’t fault you for playing Luka on FD.
