NBA DFS: DraftKings Showdown breakdown for Friday's Mavericks-Warriors matchup

NBA DFS analyst Ameer Tyree breaks down his DraftKings Showdown strategy for Friday's one-game slate

By@its_ameericleUpdated: May 20, 2022 5:27PM UTC . 2 min read

The second game of the Western Conference Finals will take place at the Chase Center on Friday. The Dallas Mavericks are looking to avoid falling into a 2-0 hole after getting blown out by the Golden State Warriors in Game 1 on Wednesday. Luka Doncic was a bust while Stephen Curry led the fantasy leaderboard. Will history repeat itself ahead of the weekend? Let's go over the ideal DraftKings Showdown strategy ahead of lock at 9 p.m. ET.

Ameer Tyree got his start in NBA DFS over four years ago. The former DraftKings Nation betting and fantasy writer spent over a year and a half breaking down basketball slates to build optimal lineups there. Now he's turned his attention to Friday's one-game slate.

One captain play Ameer loves: Andrew Wiggins at $11,400. "Luka Doncic was second to Curry in fantasy production on Wednesday, but hardly created any separation from Wiggins, Draymond Green, and Klay Thompson. He undoubtedly has the highest ceiling thanks to the Mavericks' heliocentric offense and is averaging 31 points per game on the road this postseason. Wiggins nearly topped the Dallas superstar's production in Game 1." Ameer says about the matchup.
