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...

We've got you completely covered. Point guard Russell Westbrook FD - $11900 DK - $11400 Opponent - WAS Proj Pts FD - 54.48 DK - 57.64 After a jam-packed Wednesday slate, we're welcomed with a very simple 4-gamer tonight. There's still a lot to decipher, but it's not nearly as messy as what we were working with yesterday. We'll open it up with the most expensive play on the slate in Russell Westbrook. With Westbrook, it just comes down to your roster construction and whether or not you can afford him. We know this game against the Wizards is going to be exciting and Vegas agrees (214 total, -5 spread). John Wall is a pretty good defender, but that's about. He's easy to take advantage of with a stud like Westbrook and I wouldn't be surprised to see Beal on him at times. He's going to dominate both and get as many open shots as he'd like. The Wizards like to play fast and Westbrook is more than willing. It's tough at the price, but I think 50 is a lock with a realistic 70 FP ceiling. If you're paying down elsewhere and have $12k to spend, you play Westbrook. If you have $10k, I don't think you need to switch things around. Let's touch on Curry, who might work in that scenario. Stephen Curry FD - $9900 DK - $10400 Opponent - MIN Proj Pts FD - 50.27 DK - 52.58 Stephen Curry is still going to cost you a pretty penny, but he's a huge discount from Russell Westbrook. Exactly $2k on FD and $1k on DraftKings. He has been very consistent recently, going for 42-50 in 8 of the last 9 games. He flashed the upside for 63 in one of them. He's no longer the volatile PG he was a few years ago, but rather a guy who can be counted on for 40 with the upside for 60. He's still a bit reliant on his shot, but it's very rarely off and he can stuff the stat sheet when it is. The match-up against the Timberwolves is certainly a great one, considering they rank 20th in the league against PG's. Jeff Teague isn't the worst defender ever, but he doesn't have much help...

We've got you completely covered. What We Know LaMarcus Aldridge will rest against the Grizzlies This is not surprising at all after getting 40 minutes last night against the Cavs. Pau Gasol was out and is playing tonight, so he'll slide in and grab 25-30 of these minutes, at least. Davis Bertans will get another 25-30 minutes and is a decent play against the Grizzlies. There is some opportunity here, but the match-up is terrible, so there's no real need to go anywhere with so many options on this slate. T.J. McConnell has been ruled out against the Bulls for personal reasons With J.J. Redick already out for a while, the Sixers are slim at guard. The newly acquired Larry Drew II could get some minutes, but he's not worth anything in DFS if you can even find him. Instead, it should be Ben Simmons getting a boatload of minutes at PG. Against a Bulls team who gets slaughtered by PG's (let alone Ben Simmons), he's at the top of my list at power forward. This game will stay close and we know the ceiling Simmons has. What We're Waiting to Know Tyreke Evans and Jarell Martin are questionable to play against the Spurs (Jamychal Green out) This is all very interesting, but let's keep in mind that it is against the Spurs. They don't have the most skilled big men, but play slow. Vegas has this game at a 191 over/under, sitting a whole 8 points lower than the next game. Still, there are some things to pay attention to here. Evans is a usage hog, so we'll see Marc Gasol take a ton of shots if he's out. Dillon Brooks, Wayne Selden, and Myke James will also pick up 20+ minutes and be interesting at the very least. As for the big guys, Jarell Martin was questionable entering last game and played 31 minutes. If he plays again, he's fine in tournaments. If he's out, don't rely on anyone, though Deyonta Davis and Rabb would be the main candidates for minutes, aside from maxing out Gasol. Jimmy Butler has been downgraded to doubtful against the Blazers We know what to do here. We'll get to Nemanja Bjelica as the top play on the slate. Andrew Wiggins, Jeff...
