Point Guard/ Shooting Guard Luka Doncic FD - $12800 DK - $12800Opponent - GSProj Pts FD - 61.94 DK - 67.82 What price is too high for Luka Doncic at this point? The numbers are just getting pretty stupid. Over the last six games, he’s averaging 36 points, 11 assists, and 11 rebounds in *just* 38 minutes per game. This just simply doesn’t happen with this kind of consistency. It’s almost disturbing. Now the Mavericks play in the night’s highest-total game against the Warriors who really have no one to slow him down. It’s crazy to think about paying these prices happily in cash, but the performance warrants it. Immanuel Quickley FD - $8300 DK - $8500Opponent - DETProj Pts FD - 46.23 DK - 50.04 The Raptors are in a bit of an injury mess lately, and don’t seem all that incentivized to win either. It’s making for a somewhat tricky situation fantasy-wise, but we should also see a ton of minutes and shots from Immanuel Quickley here. RJ Barrett has already been ruled out, and IQ should run a lot of the offense. He’s played 36 or more minutes in five of his last six games, averaging 21 points, and 10.5 assists per game in that stretch. He’s been one of the big ceiling fantasy changes over the second half of the season after the trade, and amazingly, the price hasn’t all the way caught up. Tyrese Haliburton FD - $9100 DK - $9400Opponent - CHIProj Pts FD - 46.25 DK - 50.3 The Pacers are on the second half of the back-to-back which could be a bit problematic, though I still expect Tyrese Haliburton to run full minutes here. He played 36 minutes last night against the Thunder, going for 18 points and 12 assists in the win. His price has stagnated some in the short-term thanks in part to major struggles shooting. He’s sub-20% from three over the last couple of weeks. It should just be a blip, but it’s limited the scoring for sure. We might be buying a bit low if you think he comes back to his regular shooting splits. Small Forward DeMar DeRozan...

Point Guard/ Shooting Guard Dejounte Murray FD - $8900 DK - $9200Opponent - MEMProj Pts FD - 44.25 DK - 47.1 Bogdan Bogdanovic FD - $6700 DK - $6400Opponent - MEMProj Pts FD - 35.49 DK - 37.98 The Hawks are already without Trae Young for the rest of the season and now have lost Jalen Johnson as well. There are a lot of shots opening up here for a team that still wants to keep its play-in hopes alive. Dejounte Murray is averaging almost 20 shots per game over the last week or so, with the minutes pressing toward 40 in close ones. His price is still pretty reasonable, all things considered, and Memphis isn’t going to provide much in the way of resistance, either. And we should see more minutes and looks from Bogdan Bogdanovic with Johnson out of the lineup. The former is in the starting lineup, and the minutes will be in the 34-35 range if the game is close. He needs to put the ball in the basket to really hit, but 15 or so shots should be in the diet here considering the state of the Atlanta team. Vasilije Micic FD - $5400 DK - $5300Opponent - WASProj Pts FD - 28.59 DK - 31.68 It might be a bit weird to start things off with Vasilije Micic, but we have some good reasons to do so. For starters, he’s in the starting lineup now with Cody Martin (and LaMelo Ball) on the shelf. And there’s a chance Tre Mann sits this game out as well. Over the last three games, with an increased role, Micic is averaging 15.3 points and 5.7 assists while getting after it on the defense end as well. The price doesn’t totally reflect the new opportunity and there’s a chance it even expands if the Hornets are down another guard. Jordan Goodwin FD - $6200 DK - $5200Opponent - ATLProj Pts FD - 32.05 DK - 33.68 The Grizzlies have been a total mess all year, with guys in and out of the lineup every single game. It looks like Jordan Goodwin will be back for this one and should...

Point Guard/ Shooting Guard Anthony Edwards FD - $9300 DK - $8800Opponent - INDProj Pts FD - 49.33 DK - 53.22 Karl-Anthony Towns is going to sit this game out against the Pacers, and that’s going to open up a lot of opportunity for the rest of the Timberwolves. Anthony Edwards stands maybe the most to gain, going from a 32% usage guy on the season to a whopping 35.3% with KAT off the court. That’s about as high as you’ll see in the game today, and he gets a matchup against the Pacers who want to push the pace. It all lines up for Edwards to be a popular, high-floor play on this slate. Devin Vassell FD - $7700 DK - $7300Opponent - SACProj Pts FD - 40.02 DK - 43.06 No Victor Wembanyama for the Spurs today after he was ruled out on Wednesday evening. That’s going to have a trickle-down effect on the rest of the lineup in really every area of the box score. With Victor Wembanyama off the court this season, Devin Vassell has the highest usage at 25.3%, and he sees the assists and rebounds tick up as well. This game’s 238 over/under is the highest of the slate, and while there’s some blowout risk for sure, Vassell isn’t priced like a guy who is now playing without Wemby. Lonnie Walker IV FD - $4800 DK - $4600Opponent - DETProj Pts FD - 33.64 DK - 36 Cam Johnson has been ruled out for the Nets after tweaking his ankle last game. That should mean Lonnie Walker moving into the starting lineup or, at worst, seeing considerably more minutes for Brooklyn who is already without Cam Thomas in the backcourt. Walker has the best +/- on the team and will take shots at a decent enough volume, even when running with the main group. Keep an eye out for the starters here, but even if coming off the bench in a sixth-man role would mean a cash game play at these prices. Small Forward Kyle Anderson FD - $5500 DK - $4300Opponent - INDProj Pts FD - 31.27 DK - 32.79 Kyle Anderson should draw...

Point Guard/ Shooting Guard Luka Doncic FD - $12700 DK - $12200Opponent - INDProj Pts FD - 65.25 DK - 71.1 Luka Doncic is one of those near-matchup-proof guys on any given night, and the price reflects it. Basically, we are going to have to pay up in a big way to roster him. But on nights like this, it’s more than worth it. He’s facing off against the Pacers who own the 25ht-ranked defense and run the fastest pace in the league. Luka is averaging 34.5 points, 9.7 assists, and 8.9 rebounds on the season, and he’s somehow topped those averages over the last month or so. It’s really something to behold. As long as the game stays relatively close, he should see minutes close to 40 and the floor is tough to beat. Plus, on this slate, there should be plenty of ways to save salary. Tre Mann FD - $5800 DK - $5700Opponent - ORLProj Pts FD - 30.78 DK - 33.43 Vasilije Micic FD - $4800 DK - $5000Opponent - ORLProj Pts FD - 25.96 DK - 28.92 The Charlotte Hornets are still without LaMelo Ball, and now they are missing Cody Martin and Seth Curry as well. Vasilije Micic moved into the starting lineup against the Raptors, playing 35 minutes and finishing with 12 point, six assists, two rebounds, and two steals. For the minutes, it was a bit of an underwhelming performance, and he got off to a really slow start. But I don’t mind going back to him as a play here at these price points. Meanwhile, Tre Mann is locked into the starting lineup with the prices sitting in the mid0-$5K range on both sites. His usage is pretty low with this group, though he’s been able to add numbers around the rest of the stat line to keep the floor high enough. The run should be there again even if this isn’t the best matchup on the board. If Jalen Brunson is out then Miles McBride (FD 5700 DK 5500) would jump up the top of the value chart. Small Forward Josh Hart FD - $8100 DK - $7900Opponent - ATLProj Pts...

Point Guard/ Shooting Guard James Harden FD - $9000 DK - $8400Opponent - LALProj Pts FD - 46.52 DK - 50.05 Paul George is still out of the lineup for the Clippers meaning we are going to get some value on the rest of the rotation in this game against the Lakers. James Harden has a 20% usage rate on the season, but that climbs to 24% with George off the court. He’s in line for more shots and in a close game the minutes could push towards 40. With the Clippers still fighting for playoff seeding, we should see a strong closing stretch from this group. Harden’s price isn’t in line with PG out of the mix. Norman Powell FD - $4800 DK - $4800Opponent - LALProj Pts FD - 30.16 DK - 32.78 Norman Powell got the start in place of Paul George last game, and that should happen again here on Wednesday. Powell played 37 minutes last time out, taking the second-most shots on the team with 17. He finished with a team-high 21 points, though it’s worth noting that his fantasy production is basically: score the basketball or bust. Powell doesn’t pile on the assists or rebounds, though at his sub-$5K prices that risk is greatly mitigated. He will be a chalk play on this slate. Jordan Goodwin FD - $4400 DK - $4000Opponent - MINProj Pts FD - 24.25 DK - 25.04 We could see Jordan Goodwin draw the start for the Grizzlies here seeing as how Memphis is, once again, shorthanded in terms of players available. Luke Kennard is out, as is John Konchar, leaving another think backcourt for this squad who is already down Ja Morant, Desmond Bane, and Marcus Smart. Goodwin can get the job done on a fantasy per-minute basis when given the opportunity. We will need to wait for the Grizz actives as well as the starting lineup with this one. Small Forward Kawhi Leonard FD - $9200 DK - $8700Opponent - LALProj Pts FD - 51.04 DK - 52.76 With Paul George off the court this season, Kawhi Leonard is the easy leader in the usage clubhouse, ringing in at...
