The 2020 NBA Playoffs roll on Saturday in Orlando. Before locking in your NBA DFS lineups for any tournaments, cash games, or 50-50s on sites like FanDuel and DraftKings, you NEED to see what Mike McClure has to say.

McClure is a DFS professional with nearly $2 million in career winnings. He's also a predictive data engineer at SportsLine who uses a powerful prediction model that simulates every minute of every game 10,000 times, taking factors like matchups, statistical trends and injuries into account. This allows him to find the best NBA DFS values and create optimal lineups that he shares only over at SportsLine. They're a must-see for any NBA DFS player.

McClure rolled through the 2018-19 NBA season, producing multiple lineups that led to huge returns for followers, including as much as 40x on FanDuel and 84x on DraftKings. He saw multiple huge cashes again early in the 2019-20 NBA season and got 2020 off to a blistering start with his optimal lineup returning at least 7x on DraftKings on three of the first five days of the year and has followed that up with multiple returns of 4x or more early in 2020. Anybody following him has seen HUGE returns.

On Friday, McClure was all over Nets guard Tyler Johnson as one of his top picks. The result: Johnson, who was just $4,200 on DraftKings, recorded 23 points and three assists -- returning over 7x value. Now he's turned his attention to Saturday's slate. 

For Saturday we can tell you McClure is high on Lakers power forward Anthony Davis at $10,200 on DraftKings and $10,700 on FanDuel. McClure's NBA DFS strategy also includes rostering Heat center Bam Adebayo ($7,300 on DraftKings and $8,000 on FanDuel), who stuffed the stat sheet with 17 points, 10 rebounds, six assists and three blocks in Game 1 of this series. 

McClure is also targeting another player who has a dream matchup on Saturday! The stars are aligning for him to return 50, even 60 points on DraftKings and FanDuel. This pick could be the difference between winning your tournaments and cash games or going home with nothing.
