When NBA lineups are confirmed

Teams announce their starting five about 30 minutes before tip, and that is when most late news breaks. Until a team announces, this page shows the five players projected for the most minutes, which matches the real starting five the large majority of the time. When a team confirms, the label switches from Projected to Confirmed.

Using lineups in NBA DFS

A starter ruled out late is the biggest edge on any NBA slate, because his minutes go to players whose salaries have not moved. When a starter is scratched, check the NBA Usage Bump to see who absorbs the minutes, then swap them in with the BaconLab Optimizer. FTA+ members also see each starter’s projected minutes, DraftKings and FanDuel salary and projection, and every team’s full rotation. Not betting advice. 21 plus. Gambling problem? Call 1-800-GAMBLER.
