It's Thursday so you know what that means - PAC 12 action baby! The Pac 12 has dominated our Thursday slates since conference play began and tonight is no different. Of the 7-games on the docket tonight 5 are PAC-12 conference games. This slate has more west coast love than the All Eyez on Me double disc that went certified diamond with over 5 million copies sold in 1996. Tupac would definitely be a DFS player today. Might even have a spin off track or two called Lack of California Love or Pritchard Me Rollin'. Ahh.... What could have been. Now let's get into the slate!

Hump Day $10K Pull Up Jumper
Tonight’s 10-game slate has Big 12 teams making up 40% of the available squads. Single games from the Mountain West, Big East, SEC, ACC, B1G and Atlantic 10 make up the remainder. Markus Howard and Tyrese Haliburton are most expensive guards, both checking in over 9k. Obi Toppin is the highest priced forward coming in at 8.8k if you feel like spending. After those big names the slate is deep. Plenty of combinations out there for whatever type of line-up you want to build. So let’s get to it! Good luck tonight Bucketheads!

CBB $15K Pull Up Jumper [$3K to 1st]
We’ve got a 10 pack of games on the Tuesday slate, including some action from the B1G, ACC, Big East, and ACC. As always, we are going to give you the information you need to make your best lineup decisions.

For the Love of Basketball
You can’t miss Kobe takes, memories, and news everywhere you look today, and rightfully so as the world lost a complete legend of the game way too soon. As a basketball fan my heart hurts. As a father my heart breaks. RIP Kobe and Gianna. We write up these 5-games tonight because it is what we love to do. If there is any takeaway in the wake of tragedy it is the reminder to do more of what you love. To spend more time with those you love. Death doesn’t wait or discriminate. Tonight, we have some intriguing conference match-ups from the ACC, B1G and Big 12. In theory this would make for a nice little 3-game slate, but instead the folks at
Friday’s $4K Spin Move Features 1K to 1st and Some Rare DFS Teams
The Friday slates have become awkward, but the good kind of awkward. Normally you have an elite game just kind of hanging out there, but then to beef up the player pool DraftKings will throw in some complete wildcards. Tonight is no different. We open with a classic B1G slugfest between Wisky and Purdue. The over/under is just 115 so not much here from a DFS standpoint, but should be a hard-nosed contest. Marquette and Butler square off in Indy in the 8:00 window in a game that features two dominating lead guards on both side. Then we look at the other 6:00 game and the other 8:00 game and you are just perplexed. Names you don't know, prices that
Late Tipping CBB $8K Pull Up Jumper [$2K to 1st]
It’s Thursday evening and our Bucketheads know what that means. We get a slate filled with Pac-12 heat. Every Thursday feels like a holiday with the Conference of Champions bringing us DFS goodness. On the 6-game slate, we’ve got 4 Pac-12 bangers, a Sparty road game to try to stay atop the B1G, and an AAC clash. Please note the 7 pm CST lock, so let's get the kids to bed early, grab a couple White Claws, and starting counting your winnings. Let’s get to work Bucketheads!! White Claws are proven to increase your DFS production.

CBB 10K Pull Up Jumper [$2K to 1st]
We have ourselves a slate absolutely packed with bigs tonight. So if you like rebounds, blocks and double double bonuses this is the sked for you. There are 10 forwards priced 8k or greater. Compare that to only two guards, Mason Jones and Charlie Moore, who are 8.2k and 8.1k respectively. This night goes to the bigs! So whether it is Garza, Reed, Mooney, Perry, Toppin Achiuwa, and Nwora, you know all the names now its time to figure out who to play. Enjoy today's ladder and good luck!

CBB $20K Pull up Jumper [$4k to 1st]
What the headline doesn't tell you is that this is a 20-team 10-game slate. We got most of the action going early with two fireball 8:00 tips involving the price king Markus Howard against Villanova and Duke who is projected to smack the crap out of a defense-less Miami Hurricanes team. Of the 20-teams on the slate 7 are ranked. #17 Maryland, #18 Texas Tech, and #21 Illinois all hit the road against unranked conference foes. #13 Butler and #9 Villanova is a legit top 15 showdown in Philly. #3 Kansas takes on instate rival K-state, and don't forget a price reduced Ant-Man is taking on #15 Kentucky. It should be a fun night Bucketheads! #LFG MD @ NWIL @ PURBUTLE
#1 Baylor Main Events Monday 4-Game Slate
We start our week off with a little 4-game Monday contest that features the #1 team in the country, the Baylor Bears, hosting the 12-5 Oklahoma Sooners. That match-up is one of two Big 12 clashes we have in our tournament with Texas at West Virginia being the other one. The slate also features an ACC battle between Virginia and North Carolina State and an odd Conference USA game between Rice and North Texas. NCST @ UVUT @ WVRICE @ NTEXOU @ BU NC State @ Virginia Time: 6:00Opening Line: Virginia -4Over/Under: 116.5 If it’s not obvious, we don’t want a ton of exposure to this game. With super low projected totals of 60-56, we might only get 1 or 2 guys from
Small Friday Slate Manages a lot of Star Power
If you prefer a smaller player pool, but still want a lot of options and good quality basketball plays, then this is the slate for you. While only three games, Friday's $3K Big Jam features three ranked teams, two crucial B1G match-ups and one Obi Toppin. We'll be recording our normal Saturday Shootaround Podcast this evening so if you have any questions feel free hit us up on the Twitter-Machine @CBB_DFS.
