The Pistons are one of five NBA teams allowing at least 120 points per game as it’s never a bad NBA DFS strategy to roster some options from the NBA DFS player pool going up against Detroit. On Wednesday, the Raptors play the Pistons, and with Toronto missing some key pieces for this matchup, it could be an opportunity to find valuable options at a cheaper price to include in NBA DFS picks. The team’s leading scorers in RJ Barrett and Scottie Barnes are out tonight, while Immanuel Quickley, who is averaging 17.9 points and 6.5 assists, is listed as questionable.

There are nine games on Wednesday with options such as Luka Doncic, Tyrese Haliburton and Domantas Sabonis in the NBA DFS player pool, so finding cheaper options to pair with stars is a viable daily Fantasy basketball strategy.
