NBA DFS, 2024: Top FanDuel, DraftKings tournament picks, advice for Mavericks vs. Timberwolves Game 1 from a daily Fantasy pro

The 2024 NBA playoffs have reached their final four, with Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals taking place on Wednesday with the Dallas Mavericks vs. Minnesota Timberwolves. Before setting your NBA DFS lineups on sites like DraftKings and FanDuel for Wednesday, May 22, you NEED to see what Jimmie Kaylor has to say.

Kaylor is a DFS and betting expert for SportsLine, who won a DraftKings Millionaire Maker contest in 2022. He uses a combination of his background as a former college and professional athlete and his keen eye for statistical trends when making his picks and locking in his DFS lineups. Kaylor enters the 2024 calendar year with multiple five-figure tournament cashes on his DFS resume.

Kaylor's approach allows him to find the best NBA DFS values and create optimal lineups that he only shares on SportsLine. They're a must-see for any NBA DFS player.

On Tuesday, Kaylor highlighted Celtics forward Jayson Tatum as one of his top picks in his NBA DFS player pool on both sites. The result: Tatum had 36 points, 12 rebounds, four assists and three steals, returning 63.5 points on DraftKings and 61.4 points on FanDuel as the top scorer from the NBA DFS player pool. Anybody who included him in their lineups was well on the way to a profitable day.

For Wednesday, one of Kaylor's top NBA DFS picks is Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic. Another part of Kaylor's optimal NBA DFS strategy includes rostering Timberwolves power forward/center Naz Reid. The 25-year-old has scored double-digit points in back-to-back games while averaging 7.5 rebounds during those contests. Reid played at least 20 minutes in six of seven games against the Nuggets last round and has proven to return value at a cheaper price to fill NBA DFS lineups. 

Kaylor is also targeting a player who could go off for MASSIVE numbers on Wednesday! This pick could be the difference between winning your tournaments and cash games or going home with nothing! You ABSOLUTELY need to see who it is before locking in any lineups.
