  Fall system's going clear the left. What's going on? Everyone? Welcome to
• 0:38
  the ship at Nation quick hit video here for NBA January fifteenth, we have
• 0:42
  a five game main slate Martin Luther King Day, so other games obviously spread
• 0:49
  out throughout the day, some smaller slights, but the main one on DraftKings
• 0:53
  is a five game slate that tips off at seven pm Eastern, So we'll
• 0:58
  kind of go through through the positions, kind of see what stands out.
• 1:02
  We have some news that we're potentially waiting on, so we'll see from that
• 1:04
  perspective. But as always, you know, appreciate your support here. Please

• 1:15
  us out a lot, so we definitely appreciate if you do that. Then
• 1:17
  I always get over to Shippingnation dot com where we have all the projections.
• 1:21
  As you can see, our projections right here partnered with the Solver, So
• 1:25
  if you have a subscription over at Shiping Nation you have the solver, the
• 1:30
  projections would come pre loaded right in here. Slate Plan Core plays everything you
• 1:34
  need to have success at NBA DFS and many other sports as well. So
• 1:40
  let's kind of hopping this slate too, we can find let's go by the
• 1:42
  positions starting at point guard and I have just sorted by strictly value here.
• 1:47
  Top value at point guard is Guildes Alexander. He is questionable, and I
• 1:55
  did want to go in and just see if there's any sort of update doing
• 1:59
  this mid afternoon one thirty eastern here, so let's see if we have any
• 2:04
  sort of new information. I guess on SGA and whether or not he's gonna
• 2:08
  play, just straight up listed his questionable dude to the right and Heastprain,
• 2:14
  so if he's in good play, if he's out, we have a lot
• 2:17
  of guys that'll obviously get a boost at this position. Josh Giddy for sure.
• 2:22
  At sixty five hundred, Donovan Mitchell at home against Chicago, good spot,
• 2:27
  good value can definitely go to him. You know, if deciding between
• 2:30
  the two, definitely want SGA, but you know, four hundred dollars not
• 2:35
  that much of the difference. I'd probably stick with SGA. We did get
• 2:38
  news Jalen Brown is out, so some of these Boston guys are going to
• 2:42
  get a boot. Drew Holliday, I think it's a fine play at sixty
• 2:45
  seven hundred and then Derek White seventy two, so so definitely prefer Drew over
• 2:52
  White. Manuel Quickly sixty nine hundred, Scottie Barnes eighty eight hundred dolls showing
• 2:57
  as positive values at the point guard position. At travel shooting guard, you
• 3:04
  can play Mitchell there, So if you're you know, if you are gonna
• 3:07
  play Donovan Mitchell, I think you definitely want to play him in the shooting
• 3:10
  guard spot opposed to the point guard spot. Just better plays, I believe
• 3:15
  overall at that point guard position. Jordan Clarkson climbs this list here sixty seven
• 3:20
  hundred. He's always a fine option. I mean, you know what you're
• 3:23
  getting with him. He's gonna chuck and be looking to score a lot,
• 3:27
  which provides a decent bit of upside Quickly here as well. Drew Holliday,
• 3:31
  like I talked about a point guard, shooting guard eligible mckel bridges has showing
• 3:36
  up at seventy three. So kind of some of these top value guys at
• 3:40
  the shooting guard position that you can look to play into your lines. At
• 3:45
  the end of this, I'm gonna kind of just run some teams and see
• 3:46
  what shows up, which guys are going to be popular will run about twenty
• 3:51
  and we'll check out the results. I'm going to run him now and then
• 3:53
  we'll kind of come back and look as at the end and just see who's
• 3:58
  showing up in these teams. In terms of the spend, another spend on
• 4:02
  the slate, we talked about Jylen Brown being out, obviously, big big
• 4:08
  boost to Tatum. The spread and the total of that game is sitting at
• 4:12
  let's see sitting at two forty. Boston's favored by six, the projected to
• 4:15
  score one to twenty three, so I think he do want some Boston exposure
• 4:18
  today ninety seven under ten k, very fair priced title. Lebron showing up
• 4:24
  here, I definitely prefer Tatum over Lebron. Lebron's listed as questionable, which
• 4:28
  I think he is basically listened as questionable every day, so it's no surprise
• 4:31
  and a little bit of a price. Very breakdown to marketing in at the
• 4:34
  eighty four and then some of those same guys. We saw mckel bridges over
• 4:39
  at the shooting guard position. We saw Scottie Barnes show up at the point
• 4:43
  guard position, and then we have Jalen Williams here as well, which again
• 4:46
  if SGA is out. We'll be looking at Okay see in a big way
• 4:50
  today and he's obviously listened as questionable, and that game is late ten thirty
• 4:55
  Eastern, so there's a chance we don't have the news, so maybe a
• 5:00
  backload and wait situation. We do have enough players, I think in that
• 5:02
  game where we can make it all work. Power forward. Jason Tatum shows
• 5:09
  up here obviously as well. I think he's really good play, potentially top
• 5:12
  overall play if we no positions, just pull him up here. He's showing
• 5:17
  as a top value. I think he's the top play at the ninety seven
• 5:23
  hundred dollars price tag without Jalen Brown and in that spot where they're projected to
• 5:28
  score like one hundred and twenty three one hundred and twenty four points. Anthony
• 5:30
  Davis shows up here. Fine play ten to five you big boy price tag,
• 5:35
  but man, he can certainly pay that off, coming off a sixty
• 5:40
  one sixty six over sixty and two out of his last three. See what
• 5:44
  Marketing has been up to, Yeah, Marketing's had these big games too.
• 5:46
  At eighty four, I kind of like the Marketing play against Indy. Total
• 5:50
  in that game is two forty five. Utah's favored by seven playing Solu basketball,
• 5:57
  So I'm fine going with market in taking that price. Rake Siakam eight
• 6:02
  k flat good tag on him. Por Zingis, Yeah, another guy's gonna
• 6:05
  benefit a little bit with Jalen Brown ruled out. All right, let's head
• 6:11
  the center. See we can find over there. Davis Anthony Davis showing up
• 6:15
  a solid option. Vouch continues to have a pretty fair price tag over on
• 6:19
  DK at least forty five Fantasy points in three out of four seventy five hundred.
• 6:25
  I'm good with that for sure. Holme Grum seventy six hundred. Again,
• 6:30
  if SGA is ruled out, an even better play already showing you the
• 6:34
  solid value. But if SGA were to be ruled out, you go way
• 6:36
  way up the list and then may have Jared Allen and Porzingis. I like
• 6:43
  Fuchman seventy five hundred. I think very fair price tag. Can do a
• 6:46
  lot with him if he's in there. All right, let's see what showed
• 6:50
  up on these teams. I just ran twenty I didn't really change anything.
• 6:54
  I didn't put any rules or anything in place. Clarkson showing up on all
• 6:58
  the teams Jason Tatum, Okay, John tay Port, let's see, so
• 7:03
  go back Porter, Yeah, forty two. I mean, there's just not
• 7:06
  a lot of cheap guys on the slate, so any cheap guy is gonna
• 7:13
  get solid ownership. Porter showing up on eighty five percent of these teams that
• 7:16
  I ran, it likes Barrett Barrett's I'm seventy five. Dennis Smith Junior,
• 7:23
  So like anyone that has this cheap price, takes are gonna show up.
• 7:25
  So let's check out Dennis Smith Junior and Houser and see what it's all about.
• 7:30
  Yeah, Dennis Smith Junior forty eight hundred. Again, we just don't
• 7:34
  have many plays. He's kind of down here in this range. Don't have
• 7:38
  many guys under five k. Houser thirty nine hundred, so not shown up
• 7:44
  as a great value. But we just need some cheap guys to make this
• 7:46
  all work through Holidays showing up Lebron James George here at forty nine. Same
• 7:53
  reason as before, Like, we just don't have the cheap guys, so
• 7:56
  it's going to kind of force those dudes in in this range. You see
• 7:58
  it continuing here, Thad Young, Finny Smith, Patrick Williams all under five
• 8:03
  K showing up on a lot of these teams because man, we just need
• 8:07
  need some value, so it would be easier this slate. Obviously if SGA
• 8:11
  were to be ruled out ten thirty Eastern games, so again we probably don't
• 8:16
  have that news, which adds an interesting wrinkle, I think to this slate.
• 8:20
  So that's kind of where'ret and again, these are our projections. If
• 8:24
