NBA DFS Lineup Study 3/22/2022
Welcome to today’s NBA DFS Lineup Study review article. In this article, we’re going to take a look at the winning lineups from the popular 20 max and 150 max tournaments on Draftkings.
The purpose of this review will be to identify roster construction trends that will help us make better lineup decisions as we construct our own lineups each day.
Make sure you’re in our Free Discord chat as myself and hundreds of our members discuss these strategies daily, also, if you’re not doing so already, make sure you’re following all of the Rise or Fall social media accounts so you don’t miss any breaking news.
I’ll be using Fantasy Cruncher to help me review each of these lineups. All of our Rise or Fall members save $20 per month on their Fantasy Cruncher subscription, so, if you’re not signed up yet, what are you waiting for?

At Team Rise or Fall, the tools we use are constantly evolving. The Projected Tier and Value Tier ratings that we have been using in NBA are now available on the NHL Study Hub as well! Find out who has an A or a B rating and look at the color-coded players to help make your NHL lineups even better. In order for everyone to see this great new addition, we have made the NHL Study Hub free to use for everyone today. To view the NHL Study Hub FREE today just click this link. https://teamriseorfall.com/nhl-dfs-study-hub/  Â
For the lineup study, we are looking at the winners of the $15 150 max and the $4 20 max on Draftkings only. For like sized slates today, I compared the 5 slates I have tracked in the 5-9 game range as last night was a 9 game slate.
Today’s thought is about the end of the NBA season. We are starting to see more and more volatility in NBA DFS and this is something that happens this time every year. This is the time of year when teams start to rest their players so they can stay fresh for the playoffs. This is also the time of year when teams who are out of the playoffs start using different rotations of players to see how some of these players who don’t normally see minutes can do when they get playing time. When you are making your lineups, make sure you are watching for starting lineups to be released and injury reports to get updated throughout the day. Staying on top of the news this time of year can be the difference between a winning night and a losing night.      Â
Let’s get to the stats.
Last night, the 2 winning lineups combined to use 12 players.Â
