dfsPro Daily: Friday’s AI-Powered NBA Lineup of the Day & 5 Hot Props

Sean Gardner/Getty Shai Gilgeous-Alexander of the Oklahoma City Thunder reacts after scoirng a three point basket during the third quarter of an NBA game against the New Orleans Pelicans.

If you played our last dfsPro lineup you had a chance to make a little money on DraftKings.

Our AI-powered projections nailed a few key plays, with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander leading the way with 56.25 points and Jalen Green scoring 53.

But it was Josh Richardson who was the difference between making money and losing, as he dropped 39.75 points while most DFS players passed on the Heat guard.

Grant Williams’s struggles (6.25 fantasy points) kept us from a big win, but we’re back again today with another lineup. Best of luck as always. – Tom
