Garion is a Toronto-based writer who has been playing fantasy sports since elementary school. With a particular affinity for advanced statistics and sabermetrics, he’s been covering DFS Baseball, Football and Basketball for DraftKings dating back to 2018. Prior to that, Garion’s work could be found at FNTSY, SportsGrid, HoopsHype, The New York Daily News and Sportsnet.ca. Still, he is a Dolphins fan, so his decision-making can be questioned from time-to-time.

Earlier this month, the DraftKings Sportsbook posted MLB win totals for the upcoming 2024 season. It makes sense.

I’m not really sure how to dress this all up. If I’m being completely honest with myself, this is just a pretty basic Wednesday slate in the middle of the NBA regular season. Eight games. Couple west coast tip-offs past 9:00 p.m. ET. Two teams on the second night of a back-to-back. We’ve all seen […]

We get a nice mix of games on Sunday’s Divisional Round slate. To kick things off, a battle of two teams that few people thought would make it this far back at the start of the season. To finish things off, a clash of AFC titans and a rematch of one of the greatest NFL […]

This is a very interesting nine-game featured slate in the NBA. For the first time in what feels like forever, not a single team playing this evening is on the second leg of a back-to-back set, meaning we currently have injury reports for everyone.
