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!
Plumlee could see big minutes tonight, according to Mike Malone. I think he is a very interesting option against a Timberwolves team that has bene giving up big numbers to centers and power forwards. As for Ibaka, he will face off with the Hornets. He certainly has the upside, but I'll personally be taking a wait and see approach on this offense.
Thompson looks to be truly 50/50 here, as I haven't seen much of a read on either side. If Thompson plays, we know the drill. Everyone is in play. if Thompson is out, everyone receives a slight usage and shot boost. Ian Clark and Andre Iguodala also become great GPP options.
This definitely hurts Will Barton and Juancho Hernangomez. Both of them are still in play either way, but make much better plays with Chandler out. Barton is my favorite of the two and I think he could have another huge night. Chandler is an interesting GPP flier if he plays.
We talked about Giannis in the main picks article and he remains a great play for the same reasons. The Nets still play super fast and they still lack the ability to play defense. Giannis is a do-it-all type of player and will have his way with this team. They have played twice already this season, where Giannis had 2 very productive games. With so many other ways to pay up, he could also go a bit under-owned. Giannis is out favorite superstar on the board and is a lock for all formats.
Channing Frye figures to see another 30 minutes tonight against a defense very similar to the one they played last night in Minnesota. Frye has been great this year with LeBron on the court, due to his incredible spacing and shot making ability. With Thad Young ruled out, Kevin Seraphin will get most of the minutes on Frye. he is far below an average defender and Frye will be able to score at will. The Pacers usually play the Cavs very tough and Frye looks to be part of the closing lineup at this point. He is a lock n cash games and has plenty of upside for tournaments as well. His price will soon rise.

How come the projection system doesn't match the "free" picks? It seems to always go for all the "value" plays and then you have a stars/scrubs lineup.
