NASCAR: Daytona 500-Practice
John David Mercer / USA TODAY Sports

The 2021 Busch Clash at Daytona doesn't count as a points event for NASCAR drivers, but it is still the start of the NASCAR daily Fantasy season. DraftKings is running a $150K Green Flag, while FanDuel has a $10K Tuesday NASCAR Intimidator. Those are just a couple of the daily Fantasy tournaments players will be setting NASCAR DFS lineups for, and with this year's event unfolding at the Daytona Road Course, there could be some tweaks to make in your NASCAR DFS strategy.

Kevin Harvick, Denny Hamlin and Chase Elliott are among the most expensive options in the NASCAR DFS driver pool on both sites. But affording them means you'll also need to find some value NASCAR DFS picks further down the board. Before finalizing your NASCAR DFS picks for the 2021 Busch Clash on Tuesday evening, be sure to check out the optimal Clash at Daytona NASCAR DFS strategy and advice from SportsLine's Mike McClure.

McClure has won almost $2 million in his career as a daily Fantasy pro, and his NASCAR DFS driver pool, projections and advice can help you score a big win on Sunday. McClure dominated NASCAR DFS at the 2020 Daytona 500, turning a 4x ROI after rostering four of the top seven drivers. 

He then crushed the 2020 Real Heroes 400, with his top three picks -- Denny Hamlin, Erik Jones and Martin Truex Jr. -- all finishing in the top eight. He also had Truex Jr. at No. 1 in his DraftKings value rankings for his win at Martinsville and then had Kevin Harvick at No. 1 for his win at Indianapolis. Anybody who has followed his picks has seen huge returns. 

Now, he's turned his attention to Tuesday's 2021 Buch Clash at Daytona. He's only sharing his picks and NASCAR DFS driver pool here.

Top 2021 Busch Clash NASCAR DFS picks

For the Busch Clash 2021, McClure is high on Joey Logano at $8,100 on DraftKings and $8,500 on FanDuel. The 26-time NASCAR Cup Series race winner is coming off another Championship 4 appearance in 2020, just two years after he won the overall title in 2018. He had some impressive runs on road courses last year as well.

He finished ninth at the Daytona Road Course and then he surged to a second-place performance at the Charlotte Roval during the 2020 NASCAR Playoffs. He also won at Watkins Glen, a road course, during the 2015 season. Logano has the potential to take the checkered flag on Tuesday, but isn't among the top-seven most expensive drivers on either site, making him one of the 2021 Clash at Daytona DFS picks you should be all over. 

McClure's NASCAR DFS strategy also includes rostering Denny Hamlin ($12,000 on FanDuel, $9,600 on DraftKings), who dominated Daytona last season. He took sixth in the Clash to open up 2020 before winning the 2020 Daytona 500. Those events happened at the speedway, but his success also translated to the Daytona Road Course.

He led 16 laps and finished second at the Dayton Road Course in August, falling just short against winner Chase Elliott. Hamlin also recorded top-five performances at Watkins Glen and Sonoma, both road courses, in 2019. Despite that success, Hamlin is cheaper than Elliott and Martin Truex Jr. on both sites, making him a logical choice for NASCAR DFS lineups. 

How to set 2021 Busch Clash NASCAR DFS lineups

McClure is also targeting an undervalued driver set to return plenty of value. He's in prime position to make a run at the checkered flag and comes at a price that won't break the bank. This pick could be the difference between cashing huge in your NASCAR DFS tournaments and cash games or going home with nothing. You can see every pick here.
