We've got you completely covered. Point guard Goran Dragic FD - $6700 DK - $7400 Opponent - LAL Proj Pts FD - 33.98 DK - 35.33 Welcome to NBA Thursday! We have 4 games on the slate with each game deserving equal attention. We'll kick things off at PG in the mid-range, where all 3 of our plays at the position lie. Let's start in Miami, where the Heat will host the Lakers in a game with a 216 total and 4 point spread. On the season, we're looking at a Lakers squad that ranks 23rd against point guards. We have Lonzo Ball back in our lives, so we can certainly trust that number more so than we could the past week with him out. Goran Dragic has been playing some of the best basketball of his season and just dropped a 60 burger 2 games ago. He typically sits around the 30 FP mark, which is perfectly fine at his sub-$7k tag. He's going to get his 330-34 minutes and this game is fully expected to stay close. He's an elite option in all formats and he'll be in the majority of my lineups. De'Aaron Fox FD - $5800 DK - $5600 Opponent - BKN Proj Pts FD - 28.42 DK - 28.81 De'Aaron Fox is a rookie, but doesn't play like one. He's composed as can be on the floor and has no problem controlling the offense. He's held a 1.21 FP per minute on the year and is now finally getting the 30+ minutes you need in cash games. His price is still very low on both sites and you have to be in love if you think he sees 30+ minutes once again. You then get to the match-up. The Nets rank dead last against PG's at 43 FPPG and it has a lot to do with the insanely weak interior defense. Fox is one of the more lethal downhill drivers you'll see in the league and Jarrett Allen will have no chance of stopping him. As long as you think this game stays close, Fox is an elite option in both cash games and tournaments. George Hill FD - $5100 DK - $4800 Opponent - PHI Proj Pts FD - 24.1 DK - 24.75 Georgie Hill has done exactly...

We've got you completely covered. What We Know Pau Gasol is out with a left knee bone bruise This did come out of nowhere, though there isn't all that much to look at. Pop is always wary of giving anyone crazy minutes, so I don't think Aldridge is a must by any means, though he's still very much in play against New Orleans. Instead, I think most minutes go to Davis Bertans and Joffrey Lauvergne. Against New Orleans, I think Bertans has a ton of upside. Kyle Anderson is also locked into his minutes as he could see some 4 if the game goes small with AD at the 5. Tyrone Wallace has been ruled out against the Rockets Wallace has been over 30 minutes in each of the last 2 games, so this is definitely something to look at. With Lou Williams already seeing huge minutes, you can lock him in for at least 34. With Gallinari already out as well, I like Wesley Johnson and Milos Teodosic to grab a bunch of extra minutes. The Rockets don't play much perimeter defense and I'm a big fan of both Austin Rivers and Sweet Lou in cash games. In tourneys, Johnson and Teodosic are elite plays against a fast-paced Houston squad. What We're Waiting to Know T.J. Warren is questionable to play against the Grizzlies This one came as a bit of a surprise and we could be looking at some extra opportunity here. If Warren misses, Josh Jackson immediately comes to the top. He's already seeing major minutes and could be guaranteed over 30. Devin Booker will also be locked into his minutes and is guaranteed to shoot 20+ times. With all of that being said, this is still the Grizzlies and the match-up is nothing to write home about. If you're on Dillon Brooks, he'll see a worse defender if Warren is out. Every lineup Guys Jarell Martin FD - $4100 DK - $4400Opponent - PHOProj Pts FD - 22.93 DK - 22.8 Martin is far too cheap for this match-up. He's seen 30+ minutes in each of the last 2 games and has held a solid 17% usage rate. He's not the best producer on the floor, but the Suns play faster than anyone in basketball...

We've got you completely covered. Point guard Chris Paul FD - $8400 DK - $8300 Opponent - LAC Proj Pts FD - 42.04 DK - 42.45 Welcome to NBA Wednesday! We have 9 games on our hands tonight with plenty of different angles to attack. Point guard is full of ways to go, whether you want Westbrook at $12k, Tyler Dorsey at $3.5k, or any of the 8-10 elite options in between. We'll focus on Chris Paul to begin, who's somehow sitting in the low $8k's. He sits around 40 FP on most nights and flashes the 50+ ceiling plenty often. His 32-35 minutes are very safe and this match-up against the Clippers is something you have to love. Aside from it being the Clippers and him obviously waiting to have a big game, Austin Rivers is a bad defender. The Clips rank 19th against the position and 24th since the ASB. We are looking at a 224 over/under with just a 6 point spread, so Vegas fully expects this to be close. Paul is an elite play in all formats that you can lock in 38-55 fantasy points for. The price is fair and I don't think you see more than 20% ownership. Andrew Harrison FD - $6000 DK - $5700 Opponent - PHO Proj Pts FD - 29.79 DK - 29.26 Andrew Harrison has quietly carved himself into a nice role with the Grizz ever since Mike Conley went down with injury. He's now playing 28-34 minutes every night and has posted some very nice games. Aside from the occasional stinker, Harrison is sitting around 30-40 fantasy points on most nights. His price is still under $6k on both sites, meaning you only need a low-30 number. That won't be much of an issue if this game with the Suns stays close. They play faster than anyone in the league and it's why we have a 211 game with the Grizzlies involved. They're favored by just 4, so Vegas thinks it stays close and relatively high-scoring. The projection is safe as can be and I wouldn't be surprised at all to see 40+ FP here. The minutes are safe and PG isn't too sexy in this price range. Kyrie Irving FD - $8600 DK - $8200 Opponent - CHA Proj Pts FD -...

We've got you completely covered. What We Know What We're Waiting to Know Lonzo Ball is likely to play tonight, but remains officially questionable He only saw 17 minutes in his last game back and I wouldn't expect anything different here. Ignore Lonzo and give a tick down to both Isaiah Thomas and Josh Hart. Brandon Ingram will see less time with the ball in his hands as well, but is still an excellent option in both cash games and tournaments. This is a situation that shouldn't be over-analyzed. Clint Capela and Ryan Anderson are listed as questionable against the Jazz With Eric Gordon already confirmed out, we could be looking at a very short-handed Rockets squad. With Anderson seeing 20-ish minutes a night and Capela in the 25-30 range, there is opportunity to be had. Luc Mbah a Moute might be the only one im comfortable with, though. The Rockets have a lot of options for backup center and there isn't a guy I'm willing to trust against a tough Jazz squad. Every Lineup Guys There are no real must plays on this slate. Point per dollar, Alex Len is at the top of the NBA optimizer. With Tyson Chandler out, you have to think he produced against a Pelicans squad that demands size. You then get to T.J. Warren and Rajon Rondo, who come from the same game with a 230+ over/under. Len is going to get you to value in cash games, but who says Anthony Davis won't put up 80 and make it tough to cash. For that reason, I'm not comfortable recommending Len in every lineup. He's certainly an elite option across the board, however. GRAB A FREE TRIAL OF OUR PROJECTION SYSTEM, AND CHECK OUT DFSR PRO!

We've got you completely covered. Point guard Russell Westbrook FD - $12000 DK - $11800 Opponent - ORL Proj Pts FD - 60.26 DK - 63.65 Welcome to NBA Monday! We have a very healthy 10-game slate on our hands with plenty of options at every position. We have lots of games that deserve attention and a few we can ignore. There's a ton of fluid situations with players sitting/resting and youngsters picking up excess minutes. We open up the slate with one of the 2 big superstars in Russell Westbrook. Westy is sitting near $12k on both sites, so we are looking for one of his big games. He's been up and down as of late, but regularly sits over 55 FP in good match-ups. This certainly constitutes as one, considering the Magic rank 26th against the point guard position. Augustin and Mack are even worse than Payton was and have 0 chance to stay with Westbrook on the perimeter or under the rim. At a 221 total and 10 point spread, the starters are expected to play a full allotment of minutes. If Westy gets 35+ minutes tonight, you will want exposure when things are said and done. He's nowhere near a must because of the price and another superstar later (AD), but don't ignore Westbrook in the slightest. Elfrid Payton FD - $7500 DK - $7700 Opponent - NO Proj Pts FD - 39.47 DK - 39.41 We'll now start our little tangent into this Suns-Pelicans match-up. Fair warning, we're going to be all over this game. With a 232 point total and 7 point spread, there's no reason not to. Elfrid Payton has played great since joining the Suns. He's been over 30 fantasy points in every single game since February 6th and is typically closer to 40. It's not much of a surprise for a guy that thrives in the open floor and now gets to play on a team that plays faster than anyone in the last 10 years. He now gets to a Pelicans squad that ranks 26th against the point guard position. Rondo is not only a bad defender, but the loss of Boogie Cousins hasn't helped either. The price is fair in the mid-$7k's and you're needing 34-37 in cash games. Assuming this game stays...
