Second straight 6 game slates! 5-8 Games are my favorite slates.
This sheet shows each matchup with game totals, spread, team pace, opp pace, pace diff(difference between teams pace and opponents Higher the number = increase in pace) and DvP vs the opponent.
PG
Malcolm Brogdon & Kemba Walker
These two are in similar spots for me tonight. Both have been consistent as of late and both have good matchups tonight. If Sabonis sits then Brogdon would get a slight bump in usage. Prices are very similar on DK.
Chris Paul
Paul at 6.6k on DK coming off back to back 36 FP games. Like his chances for 6-7x tonight.
VALUE:
Kris Dunn
Dunn is down to 3.5 K on DK mostly due to his recent performances. Lakers are one of the worst teams defending opposing PGs. Pace up spot with potential for additional minutes. Like his chances for 6x tonight.
Brandon Knight- risk/reward play. Porter Is suspended and Knight could see some additional minutes. Risk is minutes, but if he plays 15+ could return value +.
**Added 6:15-Alex Caruso: should see solid minutes with Bradley our. Only 3k on DK.
SG
Jeremy Lamb
Lamb is averaging around 30 minutes a game and 1.1 FPPM. Excellent matchup tonight as the Hornets are ranked 27th vs opposing SGs. Over the past 3 games Lamb is averaging 37 FPs with upside of 42.
DeMar DeRozan
DeRozan has been consistently dropping 30+ FPs. Could see a bump tonight vs the Hawks.
VALUE:
Terrance Ross
Ross is coming off a solid game and gets a nice matchup vs the Thunder who are ranked 24th vs SGs.
Bryn Forbes
Solid as of late and could be in a much better spot if White sits out.
Justin Holiday
Pacers will be short tonight and Holiday could see close to 30 minutes again. Nice matchup.
SF
LeBron James
James under 10k coming off 2 straight trip/dubs. Playing more PG with Rondo out and now Bradley. Excellent matchup vs the Bulls.
Gordon Hayward
Hayward has been playing close to 35 minutes a game and has really step up into a leadership role this year. No Brown means more usage.
VALUE:
Otto Porter
Cleared to play and has been solid as of late. Love the matchup tonight vs the Lakers. Big game coming soon.
Tomas Sataransky
Starting to feel more comfortable on his new team. Price is down.
Grant Williams
Minimum price on DK and could see solid minutes again. Playing well when he gets minutes.
PF
Anthony Davis
Davis is 10k flat on DK and averaging 55 FPs this year so far. He gets an elite matchup tonight vs the Bulls who are allowing the 2nd most rebounds and 3rd most actual points to opposing PFs. Hard to pass up tonight at his price.
LaMarcus Aldridge
Aldridge has dipped down to 6.8K price on DK. Over the first 6 games he is averaging 33 DK pts with a high of 46 and low of 18. Inconsistent to say the least, but at only 6.8K vs an Atlanta team that lacks a bit defensively is worth a shot. He should be popular tonight at his price and should hit value.
VALUE:
Thad Young
Playing around 25 minutes a game and has put up 20 or more in 4 straight. Like his matchup vs the Lakers tonight.-
Paul Milsap
Pace up spot for the Nuggets with a solid matchup and Milsap is only 4.7K. See a big game from him tonight.
Jabari Parker
Collins is out and Parker should pick up usage and minutes. Good spot and should be popular.
C
Tristan Thompson
Solid so far this year and Celtics are allowing a ton of rebounds to opposing big men.
Alex Len
Risk/Reward play: Lens is listed as probably tonight and his price has come down to 4.1K. Only averaging 19 minutes game with 24 minutes as high. The Hawks will be with out John Collins for a while, so we should see Lens minutes increase a bit. Solid matchup tonight as the Spurs are not the same team defensively as they once were. Averaging just shy of a FPPM and should see an increase in usage, especially with rebounds with Collins out. Most will go to Jabari Parker, who is a solid play and this makes Len a low ownership play with solid upside.
VALUE:
Goga Bitadze
Turner and Sabonis our. Nice value.
** If Adams is out again Norlens Noel is a solid play.
