Welcome to another year of the DFS Army NBA Full Court Press! Members had a ton of success using the Full Court Press along with various articles and tools that DFS Army provides, that said, we are glad to be back with another year of the all-inclusive article. You have to start your research somewhere, and oftentimes going game by game and breaking down every matchup and its key players is the first step in our process. My name is Michael aka @MadnessDFS on Twitter, make sure to give me a follow as I’ll occasionally make updates to the advice in the article. But, you’ll mostly find me in our VIP coaching forums where I provide detailed lineup maneuvers and answer all lineup questions. With that said, let’s get it started!

Miami Heat @ San Antonio Spurs
Vegas Total: 221
Vegas Spread: Mia -1.0
Short little two-game slate for this Championship NFL Sunday, but we’ve got you covered! This game is the early game so make sure to get those lineups in. We will start with the Heat, this isn’t the greatest matchup for Bam Adebayo but he put up 46.25 Draftkings points in this matchup on Wednesday. The upside is clearly there and on a two-game or even showdown slate, he’s an elite play. Jimmy Butler, on the other hand, struggled in this matchup, but I’m willing to give him the benefit of the doubt and go back to him here, he’s just been so consistent this season. Kendrick Nunn has scored at least 29 Draftkings points in three straight games along with playing 31 minutes in all of them. The Spurs have struggled with opposing point guards all season which makes him and Goran Dragic pretty intriguing plays on this slate. That said, I will like Nunn much more if Tyler Herro is out again, he is currently questionable. The same goes for Duncan Robinson who appears to be picking up a lot of those Herro minutes, he’s a nice value option if he sits. From the Spurs, DeMar DeRozan is on a tear right now. I faded him last time out because Jimmy Butler defense scared me off of him, but he went for 49.75 fantasy points. He’s playing a ton of minutes right now, tough for me not to like him on a short slate. LaMarcus Aldridge isn’t in great form but his price has come down, I don’t love the matchup but you can make a case for him. Dejounte Murray is coming off a 42 point fantasy game last time out but is currently questionable here. Keep an eye on that news, if he is out Derrick White will likely draw the start and become a very nice value option. Trey Lyles has 19 fantasy points in two straight games, but the price is too high for me to go back to him.
5-star play: Bam Adebayo, DeMar DeRozan, Jimmy Butler
4-star play: LaMarcus Aldridge, Goran Dragic, Kendrick Nunn, Dejounte Murray, Derrick White (if Murray sits)
Deeper Value: Derrick White
GPP Sleeper: Kendrick Nunn, Duncan Robinson
Indiana Pacers @ Denver Nuggets
Vegas Total: 211.5
Vegas Spread: Den -1.5
Now on to the late game, this game is five hours after the first game so if you’re playing on FanDuel, you’ll want to be very mindful of who you play from this game. You don’t want to be stuck with a late scratch. Starting with the Pacers, this is a tough tough matchup for Domantas Sabonis who is coming off a dud of a game against the Timberwolves. That said, he did score 47.8 Draftkings points in this matchup earlier this season. The price is reflective of the matchup, I like him here. Malcolm Brogdon has played at least 31 minutes in each of his three games since returning from injury, you can certainly go back to him here. TJ Warren is coming off a big game against the Timberwolves and scored 34.25 fantasy points in this matchup earlier this season, he’s a nice GPP option. Myles Turner will need to deal with Nikola Jokic down low, but was able to stand his own last time out. He’s a GPP option as well. Lastly, Jeremy Lamb is questionable, if he is forced to miss that opens up Aaron Holiday at a very cheap price tag. From the Nuggets, Nikola Jokic struggled in this matchup last time out but I like his odds here at a more than reasonable price tag. Jamal Murray will be out again here and Will Barton stepped up accordingly last game going for 53.75 fantasy points. He will take on a much bigger role in this offense and is a nice play again here. Monte Morris and Malik Beasley will take over the point guard minutes, everyone and their mother were on Morris last game as Beasley went for 39 minutes. I’m almost tempted to just take the salary savings on Beasley. It seems like coach Malone is just going to ride the hot hand. Michael Porter Jr’s price tag has skyrocketed but for good reason. He will see a minutes bump with Murray off the court as well, but makes for an intriguing GPP fade as they are careful with the youngster’s minutes.
5-star play: Domantas Sabonis, Malcolm Brogdon, Nikola Jokic, Will Barton
4-star play: TJ Warren, Myles Turner, Monte Morris, Malik Beasley, Michael Porter Jr.
Deeper Value: Malik Beasley, Aaron Holiday
GPP Sleeper: TJ Warren, Myles Turner, Malik Beasley
