Fantasy basketball lineups, argued out live before lock.
The gist
Stokastic NBA DFS is live fantasy basketball prep, with Josh Engelman and partners such as Eric Lindquist and Greg Ehrenberg going through DraftKings and FanDuel slates before lock. Most of the airtime goes to questionable tags, price gaps between the two sites and elimination-game stakes, in fast, joking back-and-forth.

About Stokastic NBA DFS
Stokastic NBA DFS carries live fantasy basketball sessions built around one deadline: lock. They are about DraftKings and FanDuel lineups, and nearly everything said on air comes back to that decision. The episode list shows two formats. On the NBA Strategy Show, Josh Engelman walks through the slate, at one point re-uploading projections without breaking off the conversation. Live Before Lock pairs him with a partner: Eric Lindquist on one night, Greg Ehrenberg on another. Injury news drives much of the conversation. Grayson Allen's hamstring gets real attention. The case made is that a questionable tag counts for more after a missed game, and that a hamstring is not something a player simply plays through the way he might a sprained ankle. That is followed by a burst of exasperation at the Timberwolves for listing Anthony Edwards as questionable for rest when his playing status seems obvious. News also breaks during the stream, and a Moussa Diabate tag is resolved while the talk is still going. Pricing is the second lever. When a live-chat question about FanDuel salaries comes in, the answer turns into a comparison of how differently the two sites price the same players that day. Slate shape gets attention too: a two-game card of Clippers-Warriors and Sixers-Magic, a night with five games on DraftKings and six on FanDuel, a lock thirty minutes later than usual. So does the calendar. One April slate is set against Orlando playing Charlotte and Golden State playing Phoenix, each game deciding an eighth seed and sending the loser home. The mood stays loose and fast. There are tax-day jokes, a shout-out to Luka Doncic, and one of the voices describing a late night that ended in a tie for first in a DraftKings showdown minimax. Plugs are part of the furniture. The Stokastic sims, which cover showdown contests, get mentioned, along with a discounted tools link and a user who finished second in a main contest as the proof. An NHL edition of Live Before Lock appears as well. It swaps player salaries for special teams, weighing Dallas's power play against Minnesota's penalty kill, the lift Quinn Hughes has given Minnesota's power play, and Carolina starting Freddie Anderson against Ottawa. It closes with a nod to the Discord. Throughout, the show plays as a working session, with decisions, second guesses and injury updates all made out loud before contests close.
Made for: Suits a listener who builds DraftKings or FanDuel NBA lineups and wants to hear injury tags, price gaps and slate context talked through live before contests lock.
What sets it apart: It runs live against the lock. Late questionable tags, chat questions and pricing gaps between the two sites get handled as they come in, with projections and post-contest sims pulled up along the way.
