With the NBA season in full swing, teams are beginning to meet one another for the second or third time this season. The NBA has 20 of its 30 teams playing on Wednesday night, which leads to a large selection pool for DraftKings players.

Only the Denver Nuggets are playing in the second game of a back-to-back. The Nuggets were at home on Tuesday but they will travel to play the Portland Trail Blazers on Wednesday. The two teams will meet in one of the NBA’s seven games between intra-conference rivals.

The other three games will feature a cross-conference matchup between an Eastern Conference team and a Western Conference team.

Since several teams will be meeting for the second or third time this season, fantasy players should use that information to their advantage. The risk that is run is the game plans change with each game in the series, though it is likely that what worked well in their first meeting will only be adjusted slightly.

It’s also a great idea to give a nod of confidence to star players in games where teams are meeting for the first time this season. Players who are playing consistently well over the past week are also a good play. But it takes more than this general information to find the hot plays, best bargains and finding the players that need to sit.

Without further ado, let’s dive into the best picks for Wednesday’s contests.
