NBA DFS Projections

Our projections are managed by the Stokastic team and updated throughout the day as more information becomes available up until the last game tips. Projections are an integral part of a winning process, and using Stokastic’s projections provides you a system that’s proven to win money in tournaments over several seasons of action.

NBA DFS Rankings

These rankings for fantasy points and value are derived directly from Stokastic’s fantasy NBA projections. Roster players with solid value rankings and spend most, if not all of your salary to build competitive lineups for your leagues.

NBA DFS Boom/Bust Tool

In all DFS sports, being able to compare the strength of a player each day versus their popularity is key to success. In the NBA, however, correlations between players are less valuable so the strength of each play can be considered individually.

NBA DFS Ownership Projections

Initial ownership percentages are posted daily by 1:00 p.m. EST and updated every two hours throughout the day with a final update occurring 30 minutes before lock. You should note that last-minute injury reports will impact not only the injured players’ or their replacements’ ownership but can affect overall roster construction and therefore, every other player on the slate.
