Squirrel’s Nuts & Bolts NBA - November 19th, 2025
We have nine games on the NBA schedule for Wednesday night, again with different DFS slates on FanDuel and DraftKings. FanDuel has kept all nine games on its slate, while DraftKings has removed the last two games of the night (NYK/DAL and CHI/POR). The slate is again heavily impacted by absences, as Joel Embiid, Paul George, Kelly Oubre, Darius Garland, Jimmy Butler, Steph Curry, Draymond Green, Jonathan Kuminga, Domantas Sabonis, Jaden McDaniels, Shaedon Sharpe, and Anthony Davis are all either out or looking unlikely to play. Questionable players include Bam Adebayo, Jabari Smith, Aaron Gordon, Zion Williamson, Cooper Flagg, Alex Sarr, Jalen Brunson, and Jerami Grant.
This is becoming a standard caveat for this article, but with so many Questionable players – especially in the later time slots - it will be critical to pay attention to the injury news and starting lineups. Even minor injuries can disrupt the slate when a minimum-priced player gets surprisingly elevated into the starting lineup, so with late swap, it’s essential to monitor the starting lineups on a slate this large with so many injury situations.
