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.
I know there’s nothing we can really do about it. I know that even without Aaron Rodgers (Achilles), the New York Jets are a team that does well for ratings — but I’m truly tired of seeing Zach Wilson ($8,800) in primetime. Actually, considering this is the Los Angeles Chargers third primetime game in the […]

We’ve got a bit of a weird slate tonight. Well, let’s say it’s a 12-game featured slate with a wrinkle. Four teams — Dallas, Golden State, San Antonio and Detroit — are on the second night of a back-to-back, yet there shouldn’t be too many load management concerns considering there’s no basketball at all on […]

For the first time all season, I sat down and really watched Victor Wembanyama play basketball last night. Like, really focused in on him — and I think it broke my brain. He’s not even on Friday’s seven-game NBA slate, but I can’t stop obsessing over him. You know who is taking the court tonight? […]

I won’t lie you to, kind reader. I didn’t exactly have this game circled on my schedule back in August. In fact, for quite some time, I was dreading what could be the most boring offensive game ever played. However, thanks to the aerial heroics performed by Will Levis ($9,600) last Sunday, I’m actually somewhat […]

There’s a ton of star-level players questionable on tonight’s 13-game NBA slate, so keeping up to date with the news is going to be key. Or don’t. I don’t know your life. You do whatever makes you feel right. However, I would strongly suggest reading the rest of this article. If only for the retention […]

Well, it’s Halloween. Usually, that would have very little to do with the fact that it’s also Game 4 of the World Series, yet for some baseball fans, nothing is scarier than the thought of dueling bullpen games in a contest of this magnitude. Way to freak out the septuagenarians, MLB. Good job. It’s the […]

Are we tired of the Las Vegas Raiders in primetime yet? I hope not. Because we’ve got the silver and black taking the field on ESPN this evening to finish off Week 8. Thankfully, Jimmy Garoppolo ($9,400) will be back under center for the Raiders, which should make the team infinitely more watchable. A matchup […]

We’ve reached the first Monday of the NBA regular season and things are pretty much back to midseason form. …Which means that star players are already resting. Obviously. We’ve got an 11-game featured slate this evening on DraftKings with seven teams on the second night of a back-to-back. Cue the chaos. That sweet, value-producing chaos. […]

There’s an 11-game slate in the NBA tonight, with most teams taking the court for the second time this season. So, while that means fewer injuries to exploit for value than usual, it also means some gaps in the ol’ DraftKings algorithm as coach’s figure out their new rotations. We’re here to take advantage of […]

It’ll be nice for the World Series to actually get going on Friday. It’s not just that I miss watching baseball, but the discourse surrounding this particular matchup has not been all that fun — the forced retirement of Chris Russo notwithstanding. Yet here we are. The 90-win Rangers squaring off with the 84-win Diamondbacks. […]

Another Thursday night slate. Another question mark at the quarterback position. This time it’s Baker Mayfield ($9,200; knee), who the Tampa Bay Buccaneers ruled questionable for their Week 8 tilt with the Buffalo Bills. However, as I don’t want to write two articles, I’m making the claim right off the top that Mayfield will play. […]
