It is Tuesday and we are looking at a 7 game slate with a lot of value already open and more potential as the day goes on. The Bulls and Cavs teams both have a good amount of value plays on them.
Questionables- Towns & Wiggins are both listed as questionable-IF both sits then Jeff Teague picks up +13% usage. If just Towns sits then Taj Gibson becomes a solid play and if just Wiggins sits then Dario Saric and Keita Bates-Diop both become solid plays. Teague is now listed as questionable, so if he sits then look to Derrick Rose.
Luka Doncic is listed as questionable. IF Doncic sits out then Tim Hardaway Jr becomes an excellent play.
Slate over view. Team totals, spread, pace + pace differential (nice to see which teams get a nice bump) & opponents DvP by position.
POINT GUARD
Damian Lillard
Dame is a good spot tonight vs a Clippers team that is rank 26th vs PGs over the past 2 weeks.
Rajon Rondo
Rondo is in play vs one of his old teams. Playing a ton of minutes right now.
Kris Dunn
LaVine is out and Dunn is priced at only 5.2k vs the Lakers who have been one of the worse defensive teams. This is also a nice pace bump for the Bulls and I like Dunn in pace up spots.
VALUE
Ryan Arcidiacono- Cheap option that should start and play close to 30 minutes vs the Lakers. Close to minimum price.
Brandon Knight- Cavs will be limited tonight and Knight is playing well as of late. Still 3.5k on both sites. Possible he comes on at low ownership again with all the value on the slate.
TJ McConnell- Butler is out, which should open up some additional minutes for McConnel. Pivot off some of the chalk value.
SHOOTING GUARD
Lou Williams
Williams is playing very well right now.
DeMar Derozan
VALUE
Gary Harris- Risk/Reward play. Price is way down.
Can use Brandon Knight here on DK.
SMALL FORWARD
Luka Doncic
Still under-priced on DK. Doncis has posted 50 FPs in both matchups vs the Spurs this year. In play if he is good to go. IF he sits load up on Tim Hardaway Jr.
Otto Porter Jr.
VALUE
Nikola Mirotic
Mirotic Price is way down and he gets a very good matchup tonight.
Davis Bertans
Rudy Gay is out, so Bertans will get a bump in minutes.
POWER FORWARD
Lauri Markkanen
Tobias Harris
Paul Milsap
VALUE
Moritz Wagner- The Lakers have given Wagner some runs over the last 2 games and he played very well. He played 27 and 34 minutes and posted 21 & 35 FPs respectively with double digit shot attempts in both games (11 & 13). In play tonight, but an even better play if Kuzma is out again.
CENTER
Jusif Nurkic
Nurkic is in a crush spot tonight vs the Clippers. This game should stay close and we could see Nurkic get 28 plus minutes. This year he is averaging 1.45 FPPM.
VALUE
Ante Zizic- Love will sit out on the back-to-back. Nance is out, Thompson is doubtful and Chriss may sit out as a result of the fight last night. Zizic has been solid producer this year averaging .96 FPPM. Potential for 30 plus minutes tonight at only 3,7K on DK.
Partial lineups
Brandon Knight
Lauri Markkanen
Jusic Nurkic
Ante Zizic
Leaves average of $6900 per player.
Add Doncic in if he plays. Leaves $6200 per player.
** Giannis, Jokic are in play as well
