We're usually looking at one of the biggest slates of the week on Wednesday, but it's not the case here. With just 8 games on the board, our player pool is a bit more concentrated. That's not to say there isn't just as much to get into. We have a lot of weird spots and some injuries that are affecting a ton. We're going to kick it off in Portland with Damian Lillard, who'll host the Bulls in the Moda Center. The Bulls have been better against point guards since Kris Dunn went out, but are still ranked just 21st in the league. We know how dominant Lillard is and he much prefers playing at home. He's playing the best basketball of his career right now and won't be slowed down against a lackluster-at-best Chicago Bulls squad. Vegas has the game sitting at a 214 over/under with the Blazers favored by just 6, so they fully expect him to be in there for 35+ minutes in a fast-paced affair. His price is still fair on both sites under $10k and will only need to have you one of his average games. The match-up is tremendous and the Yogi Ferrell FD - $4300 DK - $5100Opponent - PHOProj Pts FD - 22.27 DK - 22.93 I've been targeting Ferrell for a few weeks now and while his production has been up and down, you can't argue with the opportunity. He's locked into 30+ minutes off the bench and is in the game when competitive down the stretch. He now sees the match-up we all look for when targeting PG's, the Phoenix Suns. They rank 25th against the position and play at the league's fastest PACE, so it's a perfect environment for a quick guard like Ferrell that excels in the open court. Vegas expects this game to be close and holds a much higher total than most Mavs' games. Ferrell is still underpriced on both sites and can be played in all formats. There's obviously a lot to miss out on at PG, so make sure you have a concrete...

We've got you completely covered. What We Know John Wall will be sidelined for 6-8 weeks with a knee injury Yikes. This looked like a minor injury that was going to hold out Wall for just a game or two, but obviously not. We've gone through this before, fortunately, so we do know how to react. Brad Beal will start heaving up a ton of shots and be the clear usage leader on the offense. Minutes-wise, Tim Frazier and Tomas Satoransky will split minutes at the 1. Either can be considered in a tournament, but we don't have much of an idea who will end up with the bulk of minutes. Porter Jr. and Markieff Morris will also get an uptick in usage and a few extra shots. The Thunder not only play fast, but don't have much of a team defense. Target Beal in all formats. Aaron Gordon has been ruled out against the Rockets Gordon has been playing 35-40 minutes a night, so there's a ton of opportunity here. Khem Birch is the main benefactor and he's going to see well over 30 minutes. He's been one of the more efficient players when on the floor at 1.85 FP per minute/ You can lock him into both cash games and tournaments. The other meaningful minutes should go to Simmons and Hezonja. Mason Plumlee has been ruled out against the Spurs With Nikola Jokic getting 35-40 minutes on most nights, he's pretty maxed out. Most of the 25-30 minutes from Plumlee should go to Trey Lyles, Kenneth Faried, and Darrell Arthur. For me, it'll be Lyles and Jokic. Arthur and Faried have upside, but neither are guaranteed to see over 15 minutes. Jokic and Lyles are both guaranteed more than usual and are in an average match-up with the Spurs interior. Trevor Ariza, Rondae Hollis-Jefferson, Caris LeVert, Skal Labissiere, and Willie Cauley-Stein all remain out Lots of guys here that are missing their 2nd or 3rd game in a row. We know what to do for the most part. If you have any questions, comment below and I'll get right to them well before lock. What We're Waiting to Know Chris Paul is questionable to play against the Magic with a sore right groin This is obviously huge...

We've got you completely covered. Point guard Kyrie Irving FD - $9000 DK - $8800 Opponent - DEN Proj Pts FD - 43.95 DK - 45.09 Welcome to NBA Monday! After some pretty interesting weekend slates without any football, we open up the week with a very solid 6-gamer. We don't have a full slate on our hands by any means, but there is a ton of info to decipher through. We kick things off with Kyrie Irving, who's coming off quite the impressive stretch of games. He's been consistent all year, but has stepped in over 40 fantasy points in each of the last 4 games. He got up to 60 in one, which is an upside we're not used to seeing with him in Boston. He may be finding his scoring groove and we could be looking at 25+ real-life points on a nightly basis for the recent future. Tonight, he sees a match-up against the Nuggets that couldn't be better. On the season, they rank 27th against point guards. Jamal Murray is a bad defender, but so is Nikola Jokic, who doesn't protect the rim much at all. Kyrie is sitting with a tag of $9k, which is fine. He needs you in the low 40's and should be there if this game stays close. Irving is the only real expensive PG on the board and deserves a whole lot of attention in all formats. Yogi Ferrell FD - $4400 DK - $4900 Opponent - MIA Proj Pts FD - 21.5 DK - 22.27 We're assuming J.J. Barea is once again out, so make sure that is the case. If Barea plays, Ferrell could very easily see just 25 minutes and be a negligible play at best. As of now, he's locked into 30+ and one of the top value plays on the entire slate. He typically sees close to 35 minutes with Harris and Barea out, which would put him in a spot to hit value by halftime. Ferrell is always producing when on the floor and especially when he's allowed to get in a groove for more than 5 or 6 backup minutes. He's always been a productive PG that can both score and assist with high efficiency. The Mavs just struck...

We've got you completely covered. Point guard Chris Paul FD - $9600 DK - $9300Opponent - NOProj Pts FD - 48.93 DK - 50.97 Welcome to NBA Friday! After a sluggish 4-game Thursday slate, we have 10 games on our hands tonight. There are plenty of games to decipher through and none of which we can just throw away with low totals. We’re going to start in New Orleans, where the Pelicans will host Houston in what should be a competitive and high-scoring game. As of Thursday night, Vegas has it slated at a 229 over/under with just a 3.5 point spread. It’s the highest on the night and a game we’ll be all over. Chris Paul has been tremendous on the Rockets all year long and is sitting over 40 fantasy points in just about every single game. He’s one of the most consistent players in the league, but is still getting over 50 far too often at the price tag. He faces off against his former Pelicans squad and while he’s been away for plenty of years, you have to think there’s still some juice. On the season, the Pelicans rank 29th against point guards. Rondo is a bad defender and the Pelicans are one of the worst rim protecting defenses in all of the league. James Harden is obviously going to take some shots from CP3, but you can lock in 40+ with the upside for 70 if the game stays close. A 229 over/under is something you need to pay attention to. Paul is elite in all formats. Eric Bledsoe FD - $7600 DK - $7500Opponent - BKNProj Pts FD - 37.72 DK - 37.97 The Bucks have been without Giannis Antetokounmpo for the past couple games, and Eric Bledsoe has taken full advantage. Antetokounmpo is looking to return tonight, but is still officially questionable. We're going to assume he plays, but just know that Bledsoe is close to a must if Giannis ends up sitting for one reason or another. They are still facing the Brooklyn Nets and there will be a lot of FP up for grabs. Bledsoe saw just a 2% usage increase with Antetokounmpo out of the lineup, so he's still remotely the same player. We know the Nets...

We've got you completely covered. What We're Waiting to Know Kristaps Porzingis is officially qestionable to play against the Nuggets We know what to do here. If Porzingis is out, you play Michael Beasley. He took 15 shots against the Warriors last game and put up 32 fantasy points. You know he's going to chuck when in the game and the minutes would be a lock in a friendly match-up. Hardaway Jr. would also pick up some minutes and is already a great option at a depressed price tag. Hernangomez and McDermott would also pick up some minutes, but you can do better. If Porzingis plays, I'll personally ignore this situation outside of Hardaway. Jimmy Butler is questionable to return against the Warriors Butler has been out for 3 games now, so we know what's going on. If Butler is out, Nemanja Bjelica is a top value play. We'll get to him later. Teague, Wiggins, Gibson, and Towns will also pick up a few extra minutes and are amazing plays in a fast-paced affair with the Warriors. If Butler returns, Bjelica fades into irrelevancy and the rest of the starters get a slight downgrade. Gary Harris is questionable against the Knicks with a bruised right foot Harris grabs a ton of minutes for the Nuggets at the 2 and 3, so there's a lot up for grabs. If Harris is ruled out, lock in Will Barton for 35+ minutes. He's always an elite tournament play and would be a top one tonight against a lowly Knicks defense. Malik Beasley will also pick up some minutes, but he's irrelevant at this point. Stick to Murray and Barton in the Nuggets backcourt. Every Lineup Guys Michael Beasley FD - $5900 DK - $6200Opponent - DENProj Pts FD - 37.54 DK - 37.89 Nemanja Bjelica FD - $4500 DK - $4500Opponent - GSProj Pts FD - 24.35 DK - 24.96 Maybe both. Maybe neither. We're just waiting on injury news. If Jimmy Butler is out, plug in Nemanja Bjelica. If Kristaps Porzingis is out, plug in Michael Beasley. It's really that easy. Both are far too cheap if given the start and deserve to be 100% owned. GRAB A FREE TRIAL OF OUR PROJECTION SYSTEM, AND CHECK OUT DFSR PRO! START FREE...
