Guards Shai Gilgeous-Alexander FD - $10600 DK - $10200 Opponent - UTA Proj Pts FD - 53.85 DK - 55.08 With two games remaining in the regular season(for most teams), there is still a ton to play for in the Western Conference and the Thunder are right in the middle of things. They are currently tied for the final play-in spot and can eliminate the Jazz with a win tonight. This must-win scenario also helps us for fantasy in finding safety at very volatile part of the season. The upside for SGA has been somewhat limited since the break but the floor has been very consistent as he has averaged just over 51 DK points per game. More good news as the matchup is elite with the Jazz ranking 25th in defensive efficiency and dead last in fantasy points given up to guards. SGA is my top guard on this slate. Skylar Mays FD - $6000 DK - $6400 Opponent - SA Proj Pts FD - 33.76 DK - 37.31 The Trail Blazers have already been eliminated but present us with some options for fantasy in a projected thin rotation with all the starters out and about three more players questionable. One player who has stepped into a huge opportunity is Skylar Mays who has been terrific since being signed out of the G-League. He has played at least 30 minutes in all three games while averaging 17 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 7.3 assists for just over 35 fantasy points a game. In a projected close game against an even worse Spurs team, Mays is a core play in all formats tonight. Tre Jones FD - $7000 DK - $6100 Opponent - POR Proj Pts FD - 30.37 DK - 32.2 While neither of these teams will be headed to playoffs, this is a near dream scenario for fantasy as the game is expected to be close, high-scoring and features two of the worst defences in the league. Jones has been a consistent option for us down the stretch averaging over 30 fantasy points a game and also flashed his upside with a triple-double against the Kings on Sunday. Like Mays, the price is on the rise but so is the opportunity as he gets a terrific matchup against a Blazers defence that allows the second most fantasy points to guards....

The Course Augusta National Golf Club Par 72 - 7,510 Yards Greens - Bentgrass **Click the image above to see a hole-by-hole breakdown from past Masters champions** Previous Five Winners 2022 - Scottie Scheffler(-10) 2021 - Hideki Matsuyama(-10) 2020 - Dustin Johnson(-20) 2019 - Tiger Woods(-13) 2018 - Patrick Reed(-15) It's finally time for one of the most anticipated tournaments and the first major championship of the season as the world's best head to Augusta, Georgia for the Masters! For the first time since the Open Championship last summer, all of the top players in the world will come together and each of the Top 50 in the OWGR will be teeing it up in search of a Green Jacket. In the field of 88 players, we have 20 past champions, 17 first-timers, and seven amateurs. Those players will take on one of the most beautiful and challenging golf courses in the world, Augusta National Golf Club. The course is a lengthy(7,510 yards) par 72 with a standard hole setup with four Par 3's, four Par 5's, and 10 Par 4's. Most of the scoring difficulty comes with the par 3's and 4's and golfers are thrilled to come away around even par on those holes for the week. This elevates the importance of Par 5 scoring and Par 5 Birdie or Better % in my stats model. This also correlates directly with Driving Distance as the longer players in the field will have a much better shot at reaching the green in two and getting some very important eagles. Strokes Gained: Approach is always very important and at the top of my list but this week more than ever, I elevate Strokes Gained: Around the Green. This is due to the very fast and undulated Bentgrass greens with shaved edges that make par a tough score on...

Pitchers Drew Rasmussen FD 10200 DK 8100 Opponent - WSH (Trevor Williams) Park - WSH FD - 32.6 DK - 17.16 After spending most of his first two years in the league in the bullpen, the Rays fully transitioned him to a starter in 2022 and it paid off in a big way. He rewarded them with a very impressive 2.84 ERA/3.56 xFIP over 28 starts and while he does lack K upside(21.4%), he goes deep into games and finished the season going into the 6th in eight of his final nine starts. He got touched up in his first spring start but followed it up with two starts going a total of eight innings allowing just three hits and no earned runs. He now gets a strong matchup against a Nats team that scored three runs in their first two games and will most likely end up a bottom-three offence in 2023. Fire up Rasmussen in all formats. Hunter Brown FD 9100 DK 7400 Opponent - DET (Matthew Boyd) Park - DET FD - 14.85 DK - 8.2 Is it just me or is there has there been a heavy rollout of young up-and-coming stars earlier than ever this season? Today it's Hunter Brown who cracked the rotation out of spring training thanks to an unfortunate injury to Lance McCullers but nevertheless, it feels like Brown's time. He dominated AAA last year holding opponents to a .185 average, posting a 2.55 ERA, and best of all striking out 31.5% of batters he faced. He then got the callup in September and pitched 12 innings over two starts striking out 11 and finished the season(split starts/bullpen) with a .98 ERA/2.78 xFIP. Not only does he come cheap allowing us to load up on hitters, he also gets a plus matchup against a bottom-three Tigers' offence. I will be playing Brown in all formats. Catcher/First Base Freddie Freeman FD 3700 DK 5700 Opponent - COL (Ryan Feltner) Park - COL FD - 14.1 DK - 10.7 The Dodgers are #1 in my team stack rankings on Monday and while they are expensive, we have a nice combination of value pitching to help us get there. Freeman is Top 3 in our projections tonight and is off to a solid start to the season with hits in three of four games including two multi-hit efforts. I am not at all worried about the...

Guards Gabe Vincent FD - $4600 DK - $3900 Opponent - DAL Proj Pts FD - 16.49 DK - 17.85 Tyler Herro FD - $7100 DK - $6400 Opponent - DAL Proj Pts FD - 34.08 DK - 38.47 The silly NBA schedule down the stretch has left us with just two games on Saturday making lineup construction a bit challenging early in the day. Luka and Kyrie are going to be tough to fit in at their prices so I will start with the Miami guards who actually get the better matchup in this game as the Mavs are 22nd in defensive efficiency. Herro is my main target here as he plays heavy minutes, gets the majority of the usage and has been consistent lately averaging 34 fantasy points over his last 11 games. For a little more salary relief, we can also consider Gabe Vincent who is coming off one of his best games of the season with 34 fantasy points. He was definitely running hot shooting 8 of 11 but on this slat I don't think we can ignore the value for a player who is likely going to see double-digit attempts again. Small Forward Brandon Ingram FD - $9700 DK - $9500 Opponent - LAC Proj Pts FD - 43.51 DK - 47.29 Trey Murphy III FD - $6400 DK - $6000 Opponent - LAC Proj Pts FD - 28.72 DK - 30.52 We can't be overly picky with our matchups tonight with just two games and while the Clippers are a top-half team in terms of overall defense, they have not been nearly as good on the road. Enter Brandon Ingram who has been on a tear over the last two weeks(9 games) averaging 28.8 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 8 assists for just over 50 fantasy points a game. That balance and fantasy value across multiple categories gives him a high floor and us some much-needed safety on this slate. Consistency is something his teammate, Trey Murphy, has shown recently as well shooting 50% from the field in March while averaging over 31 fantasy points a game. He is very shooting dependant which makes it risky but on this slate, we are going to have to take some chances. Power Forward/Center Kawhi Leonard FD - $10000 DK - $10000 Opponent - NO Proj Pts FD -...

Pitchers Spencer Strider FD 10800 DK 9700 Opponent - WSH (Josiah Gray) Park - WSH FD - 40.57 DK - 22.94 With Max Fried getting hurt on Opening Day, the Braves are going to be relying heavily on Spencer Strider to carry the rotation for the time being. Strider finished second behind his teammate Michael Harris in the 2022 Rookie of the Year voting after posting an elite 2.67 ERA and even better 2.30 xFIP which led all starting pitchers(min 100 IP). While he only has two pitches(Fastball, Slider) in his arsenal, they are elite and helped him to a league-leading 38% K rate and 15.5% swinging strike rate. He gets one of, if not the best matchups on the board Saturday against a Nationals team that is projected to be a bottom-three offence this season. Fire up Strider in all formats. Justin Steele FD 8600 DK 6000 Opponent - MIL (Brandon Woodruff) Park - MIL FD - 32.74 DK - 16.95 Following a rookie season in 2021 where he split time between the bullpen and rotation, Justin Steele broke into the rotation full-time and was one of the most underrated pitchers in baseball. Over 24 starts, he held opponents to two or fewer earned runs 18 times which led to an impressive 3.18 ERA/3.48 xFIP. While he posted just a slightly above-average K rate(24.6%), he had the 9th-best hard hit rate against(25.7%) and the 2nd-best barrel rate allowed(3.9%). He starts the year off in a good spot against a Brewers lineup that struck out 12 times on Opening Day and was a bottom-10 team against southpaws in 2022. Steele is my favourite value play at starting pitcher today. Also Consider: Patrick Sandoval(LAA) who is will be looking to build off his best season as a pro(2.91 ERA/3.67 xFIP) and looked good in his final spring training appearance(3 IP, 2 hits, 1 ER, 6 K) and was solid in the World Baseball Classic, especially in the semifinals against Japan(4.1 IP, 4 hits, 0 ER, 6 K) Catcher/First Base Matt Olson FD 3700 DK 4700 Opponent - WSH (Josiah Gray) Park - WSH FD - 12.91 DK - 9.65 Olson had a monster spring training and it carried right over to Opening Day as he went 2 for 5 with a double and a run scored in a 7-2 route of the Nats. His first year in Atlanta saw the average drop...
