We have a ton of games on the slate and I'm sure news will come out throughout the day that will only turn up the intrigue. We'll kick things off in Sacramento, where the Sixers will head to play in a game that should be high-scoring and competitive. The Sixers are favored by just 3 points and the game holds a 235 over/under. The Kings like to play fast and the 76ers are more than willing to buy in. Simmons has been in control of this offense recently and turned his scoring on last game. He always fills up the stat sheet and is never at risk to completely bust. Even if his shot isn't falling, 45+ fantasy points is a lock in a game with this type of pace. Simmons has definitely gotten expensive, but he's well worth it in this match-up. Stephen Curry FD - $9500 DK - $9600Opponent - LALProj Pts FD - 49.8 DK - 52.94 If you're not wanting to pay all the way up or you just prefer this game, Stephen Curry is a solid option in all formats. This game between the Lakers and Warriors is going to be high-scoring and it should stay relatively close. Curry has been shooting the ball well and went off last game against the Sixers and for 41 real-life points. He now faces off with Rajon Rondo, who is nothing to worry about in 2019. The Lakers are ranked in the mid-range against point guards, but that's with Lonzo Ball on the controls. Curry is going to be all over the floor with LeBron stuck on Durant and he shouldn't have an issue putting up 50 fantasy points. With a line of only 10 points, Vegas expects the game to stay close enough to the point where all starters should play a full allotment of minutes. Darren Collison FD - $6200 DK - $6300Opponent - MIAProj Pts FD - 27.99 DK - 27.74 Cory Joseph was the guy who was originally here, but he's now listed as questionable. If Joseph is a full go, he will play over 30 minutes and is a phenomenal...

We've got you completely covered. Point Guard Stephen Curry FD - $9200 DK - $8900Opponent - PHIProj Pts FD - 46.41 DK - 49.49 Welcome to NBA Thursday night. We have six games on the slate with plenty of superstars and value to pick from. We'll kick things off with one of the most exciting games of the night, the Sixers at the Warriors. Simmons and Curry will face off at point guard and our optimizer is taking the side of Steph Curry. The 76ers are typically solid against opposing point guards (43.7 FD PPG), but Curry is no typical PG. These two teams last played in 2018, when Curry went off with 35/5/5. Curry hasn't been great over his last 10, but it's allowed his price to drop and he's still the same player. His full effort is just not needed in most games. With a huge 240.5 over/under, it's impossible to avoid this game. Curry is the top option at a point guard position that's pretty plentiful. Rajon Rondo FD - $6900 DK - $7000Opponent - LACProj Pts FD - 40.27 DK - 42.88 With Lonzo Ball out, Rajon Rondo is going to continue seeing 35+ minutes on a nightly basis. He's put up double digit assists in three straight games and has been involved heavily in what seems like every possession Ingram doesn't ISO. He should put up a few more points and rebounds against the fast-paced Clippers, putting him over that 30 fantasy point mark. His price is still manageable on both sites and he makes for one of the more solid plays on the entire night. The upside is always huge with Rondo as well, as he can put up a triple-double with 20 assists on any given night. Pat Beverley is a tough defender, but that doesn't matter as much for a guy that prefers passing anyway. Darren Collison FD - $6600 DK - $6100Opponent - ORLProj Pts FD - 28.05 DK - 27.77 I know Collison has been terrible in each of the last two games, but that just makes me like him even more. They were blown out a few nights ago by the Warriors and played just 24 minutes. He followed that up...

We've got you completely covered. Point Guard Ben Simmons FD - $10100 DK - $9600 Opponent - DEN Proj Pts FD - 55.09 DK - 56.47 T.J. McConnell FD - $4300 DK - $4000 Opponent - DEN Proj Pts FD - 24.11 DK - 23.24 Welcome to NBA Saturday! We have a solid five game slate on our hands with only four games on a few sites. We have plenty of injury news to go through and a ton of options at each position. The Sixers are the base of that all. Joel Embiid has already been ruled out and Jimmy Butler is doubtful. That should leave an absolute ton of usage behind for the rest of this Sixers lineup. Ben Simmons will have the ball in his hands every single possession and will fill up the stat sheet with ease. The Denver Nuggets are a poor defensive team and while they are average against opposing point guards, they'll likely be without their starter Jamal Murray (questionable). Simmons is going to dominate all night long and is the top point guard play on the slate. I would even argue he's a top play on an entire slate. If you're looking for savings, T.J. McConnell is an interesting option, particularly for big tournaments. This game will stay close and I'll have a ton of exposure. Kyrie Irving FD - $10500 DK - $9300 Opponent - GS Proj Pts FD - 43.59 DK - 44.4 The price is definitely high at this point, but he's the only way the Celtics really stay in this game. People are looking at this like a potential Championship match-up, so all of the stars should be going all out for a big game. It's also an island game for both teams, meaning neither are in a back to back. Irving sat out last game, but looks like a full go for this one. He's been playing his best basketball of the season and is a near guarantee for 50+ fantasy points if the game is remotely close. He's taken a firm hold as the leader of this Celtics team and it looks like they're fully ready to go on their second half run preparing for the playoffs. Curry...

Get started for free by clicking the button below. START YOUR FREE TRIAL NOW! First time with NBA or NFL? Be sure to read our free NBA and NFL Ebooks on building lineups, general strategy and more. We've got you completely covered. What We Know What We're Waiting to Know Aaron Gordon is questionable to play against the Bucks Gordon is a huge part of this Magic team and will be missed if he's out. Minutes-wise, it should be a mix of Jonathan Isaac and Jonathon Simmons. Khem Birch and Mo Bamba could also see a few minutes, but I think the Bucks playing small will lend towards more Isaac and Simmons. As for usage, Nikola Vucevic takes a few steps up and so does Fournier. Both will get a little extra involved and Vucevic is already in a spectacular spot. Marc Gasol is questionable to play against the Raptors (Joakim Noah OUT) With Joakim Noah already out, things could get interesting here. Gasol has voiced concerns about the organization and could want to be traded to a contender if they can't turn things around. He's questionable for tonight and is probably on the lowside of it. If he does indeed sit out, Jaren Jackson and JaMychal Green will be in line for huge minutes against a Raptors team that matches up exactly with the two big power forwards. Omri Casspi could also see a few minutes, but my focus will be on Jackson and Green. Josh Richardson has been upgraded to probable after missing last night with an illness Richardson is supposedly back to full health, so we can expect 30+ minutes out of him. I actually don't hate him in tournaments against a Bulls team that doesn't play any defense. Rodney McGruder and Dwyane Wade are both out of consideration for me now. Neither will get enough minutes to be worthy of consideration on this deep slate. What We Know Kawhi Leonard will rest against the Grizzlies Leonard might have something that's aggravating him, or he genuinely is just getting some bed rest for the rest of a tough season. With Leonard out last game, Lowry, VanVleet, Siakam, and Ibaka were still the only ones to get over 30 minutes. Against a pretty slow Grizzlies squad, I'll play Lowry and move on. The other three guys are solid as a lineup filler, but I think you can do better on this slate. Andre Drummond has entered the concussion protocol and will miss tonight's game...

We've got you completely covered. Point guard Kyrie Irving FD - $9500 DK - $9400 Opponent - ATL Proj Pts FD - 47.63 DK - 48.16 It looks like Kyrie Irving has arrived and is here to stay for the near future. He struggled a little bit at the beginning of the season, but has been on fire as of late - topping 59 fantasy points in back to back contests. He’s driving to the hole better than ever and the balance of the Celtics is giving him some space on the perimeter. The Hawks are already one of the best match-ups for opposing PG’s, and now Young is questionable. That could leave one of the worst defenders in basketball, Jeremy Lin, to cover Kyrie. Look for Irving to have another big night at an affordable price tag. Keep an eye on his status on the second half of a back to back, but if he gets the green light from Stevens he gets the green light from us as well. Jeremy Lin FD - $4600 DK - $4400 Opponent - BOS Proj Pts FD - 22.8 DK - 23.35 Trae Young is currently questionable with an illness, so we will just wait and see what goes down here. If Young plays, I'll avoid the situation altogether as he probably wouldn't play a lot of minutes coming after a bronchial sickness. If he sits, however, Jeremy Lin will turn into one of top plays on the slate. He's already playing 25-30 minutes a night, so if Young is out, he could easily see 35 or so minutes. His price is low on both sites and he's always involved when on the court. The Celtics are a pretty solid defense, but Kyrie isn't a great defender and Lin won't have any issues scoring. If Trae Young is out, Jeremy Lin will be a top cash game and tournament play on the entire night. Lonzo Ball FD - $7700 DK - $6900 Opponent - HOU Proj Pts FD - 35.35 DK - 35.69 With LeBron James off the floor, Lonzo Ball has been extremely consistent. He also seems to be fine tuning his game with the added freedoms to “figure it out”. He’s between 33 and 37 minutes on a nightly basis and has the ball...
