Draft Kings: Beat Yannis, Win Cash Wednesday Night!
$50,000 is being given away in tonight’s Draft Kings fantasy league where all it takes is beating Yannis to win!
Do you think that you can beat managing site editor Yannis Koutroupis in a one-day NBA fantasy league on Draft Kings? Tonight’s your chance to prove it, with big cash prizes on the line!
The league is only $2 to join and there is a $50,000 prize pool being given away to the top 5,750 finishers. First place will net you $5,000, but as long as you can beat Yannis’ team, you will immediately get your entry fee returned. Here’s a look at Yannis’ team for Wednesday night’s 10 game schedule in the NBA:
Yannis’ Notes:
*I’m betting pretty heavily on Kyle O’Quinn tonight continuing with his strong play after a big game against the Los Angeles Clippers, but if Nikola Vucevic goes from questionable to active tonight, I’m going to have to second-guess that selection, because O’Quinn’s minutes are clearly going to drop if Vucevic is back in the lineup. However, Tobias Harris is staying in my lineup regardless.
*The Detroit Pistons are coming off of a bad loss against the Los Angeles Lakers, which makes Rajon Rondo the guy I’m willing to give the majority of my cap space to. I think the Pistons’ dysfunction sets the stage for Rajon Rondo to flirt with a triple-double tonight.
*There were a lot of guys worth picking in tonight’s Philadelphia-Minnesota match up despite both team’s struggles. The reason I settled on K.J. McDaniels as my lone selection from the game is because of his ability to do the little things. I’m hoping for a few blocks, steals, a couple assists, a handful of rebounds and hopefully double digit scoring from him tonight.
*As Tom Thibodeau recently said, Jimmy Butler is a star – and against a Charlotte Hornets team that is floundering, I’m comfortable having him as my second-highest paid player, although I desperately tried to find a way to fit Pau Gasol into my line up as well.
