We understand not everyone looking for NBA DFS lineup advice has the time to watch every show, read every breakdown and input data into optimizers. Perhaps you’re still getting a feel for NBA DFS and aren’t quite ready to give NBA Sims a try.
That’s where our NBA Lineup Generator comes in handy.
In just a few minutes and with the click of a few buttons, sort through lineups and save up to 20 at a time using a tool that processes our projections for you. The Lineup Generator is, dollar-for-dollar, the most powerful tool in the industry, as it gives you the flexibility to choose different lineup types, but ultimately will only give you lineups that have been found to be long term profitable in the Stokastic Sims.
We used Lineup Generator to see what players we’d see most often in our builds tonight. Of course, with NBA DFS more than any other sport, an important caveat: late news can change things drastically.
We would recommend running the Lineup Generator as close to lock as possible. But we can still get a good idea earlier in the day of which players are likely to pop into lineups, so we took an early first look.
Here’s what we did and the results.
NBA DFS Lineup Advice for October 24 | Lineup Generator
It all starts with picking three main options. First, you’ll choose which site you want to build for, DraftKings or FanDuel.
Then, let Lineup Generator know what kind of build you’re going for: Chalky, Balanced, Contrarian, or All, which gives you a mix of the three types.
Finally, choose if you want to lock any players into all of your lineups.
NBA DFS Lineup Generator Results – October 24
For this build, we chose to look at DraftKings lineups. We chose All lineup types to see a mix of different lineups, and didn’t lock anybody in.
For some slate context: Bradley Beal is out for the Suns, and Draymond Green is out for the Warriors. This opens up some value plays and allows for more stars-and-scrubs builds than you might normally see on a two-game slate.
It is not surprising that in our 20 lineups, we got Nikola Jokic in 19 of them. He is the most expensive player on the slate, but at a salary of just $10,000, Jokic is much too cheap for a player who projects more than 14 fantasy points better than the next best player on the slate. Jokic has an incredible 82% chance of “booming” according to Stokastic’s Boom/Bust tool.
Paying up for Jokic is made easy with soft pricing across the board. Chris Paul ($5,600) and Andrew Wiggins ($5,500) are both too cheap, and each made it into 85% of our lineups. Jonathan Kuminga ($4,600) made it into 50% of our lineups with Green out. Josh Okogie ($4,000) is in 75% of our lineups, while Jordan Goodwin ($3,300) made it into 40% with Beal out.
You will get different results if you run the Lineup Generator for yourself, but one thing won’t be different: you will only be getting lineups that showed up as long term profitable in the Stokastic Sims. So check it out!
