Notes: 10 game slate- Favorite game(Atl/Was).
*Luka and LeBron meet for the third time this year. Anthony Davis has been ruled out, so this opens up some additional usage for the Lakers. I would play Doncic and James in the same lineup with a few plays from each side. Both teams are missing a high usage player, so James and Doncic will have higher usages. Kuzma, McGee & Danny Green stand out for the Lakers with Curry and Wright looking good for the Mavs. Â Doncic and James are not listed but I will have them in some lineups.
POINT GUARDS
Trae Young
On Fire again only scoring below 50 FPs in one of the last 10 games with 4-60+ and 80 I’m that timeframe. Fast paced game against one of the worst defenses.
Terry Rozier
Rozier is starting to play like he did as a Celtic. Scoring 27 + points, 40+ FPs and 15+ shots over last 4 games. Also playing a ton of minutes with 40+ in last 3 games and mid to high 30s most other nights.
Markelle Fultz
The Magic will be without DJ Augastine and Michael Carter-Williams tonight leaving Fultz with most of the PG duty. As of late Fultz has played very well and should see an increase tonight in this matchup vs the faster paced Suns. Also the Suns are ranked 21st vs opposing PGs.
VALUE
Patty Mills
Guards do well vs the Grizzlies. Mills should do well and a cheap option.
Isaiah Thomas
Price has dropped to underline 4K on DK. Still playing minutes and has some upside tonight in this matchup.
SHOOTING GUARDS
Lou Williams
Williams is getting back in his groove as of late with 36 or more FPs in 4 straight games. The Clippers will be with out George tonight, which opens up some more minutes and usage. Love this spot for Lou in this fast paced matchup where he should excel and against the Warriors weak defense(rank 23rd over all).
Devin Booker
50 or more FPs in 5 of the last 7 games and 44 in the other 2 with 20 or more shots in 6 of those 7 games. Back into form and taking back over the lead on the Suns.
Zach LaVine
Similar to Booker LaVine has really been playing well as of late with 50 or more 2 of the last 4 with 42 & 44 in the other 2 games. Bulls will need LaVine to continue his current play to keep up with the Pacers tonight.
VALUE
Josh Hart
Should start an play solid minutes with Jrue Holiday still out. Good all around option with rebounding upside.
RJ Barrett
Gary Payton II
Excellent matchup. Good night for him to break out of slump.
SMALL FORWARDS
DeMar DeRozan
Went off vs the Grizzlies last time out with 50 FPs. Has been playing very well as of late and Grizzlies give up FPs to guards.
Alec Burks
Burks came back alive last game. Nice matchup in a fast paced game where he plays well. I can see him getting over looked on this 10 game slate.
VALUE
Joe Ingles
Ingles has filled in well as back up PG/SF with Conley off the floor. Good spot.
Kevin Knox
Dirt cheap and should play around 30 minutes.
Reggie Bullock
Same situation as Knox. Pace up spot + bad defense. Prefer Bullock over Knox but not by that much.
POWER FORWARDS
John Collins
Smash spot for Collins and the Hawks. Favorite game tonight as both teams run fast and play no defense. Good spot for Collins to drop 20/15.
Jarren Jackson Jr.
Playing very well. Minutes and production have been solid. Nice matchup vs the Spurs who are not the same this year defensively.
Montrezl Harrell
Harrell is picking up his hame again with 40+ FPs in back to back games. No George tonight, so should continue to play well especially against the Warriors.
VALUE
Myers Leonard
Quietly dropping 20+ FPs a night. Also playing between 25-30 minutes a game as of late. Gets an excellent matchup vs the Nets. Over looked every night. Nice contrarian play with upside tonight.
Kyle Kuzma
No Davis and should slide into the starting lineup. Has been solid as of late but possesses upside with out Davis in the lIneup.
JaMychal Green
Should play solid minutes with George off the floor. Good spot in fast paced game vs poor defense.
CENTERS
Bobby Portis
Portia viable on FD and ok play on DK. Prefer to pay down at C tonight.
Willie-Cayley-Stein
VALUE
JaValle McGee
No Davis tonight putting McGee in an excellent spot at his price.
Dewayne Dedmon
Should Play again tonight with all the injuries to the Kings.
Jakob Poeltl
