Welcome to the daily updates and injury news article. We'll try and update it right up to line-up locks with as much information as comes across our desks. Let's get to it!
Last night's picks can be found here, so you can wrap your mind around what you need to be looking at before lineups lock tonight.
By the way - we keep our projection system updated with all of the changes as they occur throughout the day right up until lineup lock. Every day. If you want access to that system so you can cut out a lot of the research element, click the button below!
WIth Walker out, Ramon Sessions is going to be the main beneficiary. He should see at least 25 minutes, and makes for a solid play across the board. All of the other starters may pick up some shots and/or minutes as well. Against the Celtics, I will look towards the big men as Batum will be guarded by Avery Bradley, which is far from optimal. He still makes a decent tournament play, with that being said.
Gay is the 2nd option on this team, so his absence definitely causes an impact. Cousins and Collison will get a big jump in shots, and Casspi will have the most to gain minute wise. He makes for a decent play, but I don't love anyone on the Kings in this match up.
If Embiid plays, I am perfectly fine rolling him out anywhere. He has hit value consistently and there is no reason to think the Lakers are the team to slow him down. If he misses, Okafor will still see his 28 minutes, but Richaun Holmes could see 20. Neither of them interest me for that reason, but I like Okafor no matter what happens to Embiid.
Lin returned for 20 minutes 2 games ago, and then got put back o the bench last game. Even if he does return tonight, I doubt he plays more than 15 minutes. They are going to be careful with him as he heals fully. Kilpatrick and Whitehead could be affected slightly, but I doubt it takes too many minutes away. They are both below average options against the Magic on a slate with plenty of different ways to go.
I was all over Giannis last night, and he certainly paid off. He came through with 30 points and 14 rebounds, and certainly exceeded value on all sites. He is expensive on DraftDay, but that should push his ownership down. The Bulls had a world of trouble with Antetokounmpo last night, and I think he has another big game tonight. I honestly don’t think he reaches the same number as last night, but should be able to hit value. With most split on on Harden , Giannis and Davis tonight, you should be able to get Antetokounmpo at around 25%.
With Kemba Walker out tonight, Sessions is going to get the start. He will likely play at least 28 minutes, and against the Celtics, he should have plenty of opportunities. Isaiah Thomas is a below average defender, so that shouldn’t get in his way. Sessions has always been a guy that produces when on the court as he can do a lot of different things. He can shoot well, and has the ability to get a ton of assists as well. At near minimum price, you basically have to plug him in if you want to pay up at more than 1 position
