4/9 NBA DFS Full Court Press
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 last season, so 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 Steve aka @Mutt18 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. We also have NEW pricing options, where you can sign up for WEEKLY access as opposed to be committed for a full month, so you have no excuse to try us out! With that said, let’s get it started!

Indiana Pacers @ Philadelphia 76ers
Vegas Total: 235.5
Vegas Spread: Phi -14
These two just played the other night, and it actually stayed close so it could again here. Starting with the Pacers, they are tanking big time but Tyrese Haliburton is anchoring this offense along with Buddy Hield both are in play for this showdown. Isaiah Jackson and Oshae Brissett are also playing 30+ minutes here and are in play if you need some mid-range guys. Jalen Smith should see like 30ish off the bench as well if Bitadze is out, and Trent Taylor is starting and seeing solid minutes as well, he should be pretty cheap here.
Now for the Sixers, Joel Embiid should feast here, as he will be able to get whatever he wants in this matchup, especially considering how bad the Pacers are right now. James Harden is a solid play here as well, but I prefer Embiid’s matchup tonight. Tobias Harris is solid as always but his ceiling will be capped as long as both those guys are healthy. If you want to get really deep, Matisse Thybulle is likely out again, and if he’s out again Danny Green could start in his place, but I won’t touch him. Tyrese Maxey has also been solid in his new role, but I’m not going out of my way to play either of those guys. If you need value Shake Milton would see big run if this game blows out.
5-star play: Tyrese Haliburton, Joel Embiid
4-star play: James Harden, Buddy Hield, Oshae Brissett, Jalen Smith, Tobias Harris, Tyrese Maxey
Deeper Value: Trent Taylor, Shake Milton, Danny Green
GPP Sleeper: Shake Milton
New Orleans Pelicans @ Memphis Grizzlies
Vegas Total: 229
Vegas Spread: Mem -6
Starting with the Pelicans, it looks like Brandon Ingram will be out again here, which makes CJ McCollum a great play here on a small slate as he isn’t priced too badly here. Jonas Valanciunas is also in a great spot here going up against his old team so you have a bit of a revenge factor. Jaxson Hayes would be a solid play as well if Ingram is out, and Herbert Jones is a GPP flier on a small slate. If JoVal misses here then Willy Hernangomez will be a premier play on this slate and he’s still even in play here coming off the bench. If you want to get really deep Jose Alvarado has been seeing solid minutes off the bench as well.
Now for the Grizzlies, Desmond Bane is gonna be your main target here but I don’t see the Grizzlies running their starters big minutes here so I won’t be targeting a ton of them. Jaren Jackson has all the talent in the world but he can be handsy as we know so he’s prone to foul trouble as we know. Steven Adams has a good matchup here as well going up against JoVal and he’s been solid. Tyus Jones is also solid here but the price has come up as well, if you want to get really deep Kyle Anderson has been playing the most minutes off the bench.
5-star play: CJ McCollum
4-star play: Jonas Valanciunas, Jaren Jackson, Desmond Bane, Tyus Jones
Deeper Value: Jaxson Hayes, Willy Hernangomez, Steven Adams, Kyle Anderson
GPP Sleeper: Jaxson Hayes (if Ingram out)

Golden State Warriors @ San Antonio Spurs
Vegas Total: 222
Vegas Spread: Gsw -5.5
Starting with the Warriors, Steph Curry is out again here tonight, so that’ll open up things for Jordan Poole, he has been great and should see a great matchup here against the Spurs. Klay Thompson is gonna be my favorite play from the Warriors tonight at his price point, as his ceiling is sky high here. Andrew Wiggins is never exciting to play either, but on a small slate he is in play for GPPs here tonight. Draymond Green should also see big minutes here as well as they’ll need him here as well, its a great spot for him to succeed in this one. Outside of those guys I don’t really see anyone I want from the Warriors.
Now for the Spurs, it looks like Murray will be out again here so Keldon Johnson will be the main target here as he’s been white hot and should see 30+ minutes in a solid matchup. Jakob Poeltl also has a great matchup here as the Warriors are bleeding FPs to opposing bigs. Devin Vassell has also been fantastic the past few games and he has seen a bigger role here lately, great spot in GPPs. If you’re looking to get deeper, Tre Jones and Joshua Primo’s prices have both seen price increases but they are seeing big minutes as well. Josh Richardson is also seeing the most minutes off the bench and he’s very much in play on this small slate.
5-star play: Klay Thompson, Jakob Poeltl
4-star play: Jordan Poole, Keldon Johnson, Draymond Green, Devin Vassell
Deeper Value: Joshua Primo, Josh Richardson, Tre Jones, Andrew Wiggins
GPP Sleeper: Josh Richardson
Sacramento Kings @ Los Angeles Clippers
Vegas Total: 225.5
Vegas Spread: Lac -11.5
Starting with the Kings, they’re gonna be shorthanded here, the main target is gonna be Davion Mitchell as he’s playing like 40 minutes a game and he’s decently cheap. Damian Jones is your other main target as he’s been seeing big minutes and its a great matchup. Harrison Barnes is also seeing a ton of minutes and its a good matchup for him as well here. If you’re looking to get deeper, Donte DiVincenzo, and Chimezie Metu are really solid values here especially on a small slate as they’re seeing 25+ minutes off the bench.
Now for the Clippers, Paul George should be a full go here, and on a small slate he’s gonna be one of your best pay up options here tonight. Reggie Jackson is also very solid here and has a great matchup. Norman Powell also returned and should see closer to 30 minutes here in a good matchup as well. Ivica Zubac and Marcus Morris are also in play for GPPs but not guys I’m really seeking out tonight. If you want to get deep, Isaiah Hartenstein and Tre Mann are seeing the most minutes off the bench.
5-star play: Davion Mitchell, Paul George
4-star play: Reggie Jackson, Damian Jones, Harrison Barnes, Norman Powell
Deeper Value: Donte DiVincenzo, Chimezie Metu, Marcus Morris, Isaiah Hartenstein
GPP Sleeper: Chimezie Metu
