Point Guard Look there are a ton of good point guards going tonight. I think you are going to see the percentage starts spread out. I could make strong cases for a number of different guys on the high end. I couldn’t blame you for playing a mix and match style here. I’ll highlight who I think is worth it in the upper tier. Russell Westbrook - FD 10000 DK 10400 He’s so, so expensive. But man, if there was a guy to pay for tonight, it’s Westbrook. Now, he doesn’t have a big track record without Durant. But with KD out for short term, Westbrook clearly becomes the catalyst in the offense. I think we are going to see crazy volume from the guy. Losing Durant leaves an enormous void. Last season, in only 46 games, Westbrook averaged 22/7/6. I think you see the assist numbers dip some and scoring bounce up in a big way. He’ll be carrying the team. Honestly, I almost can’t pay enough for him at PG tonight, though DK is pushing it a little for me. It might be an overpay, but I don’t see any other PG carrying as much of the offense as him. Goran Dragic - FD 8100 DK 7300 I’m much more inclined to use him on DraftKings where I like his price better. Dragic turned it on last season, and proved that he could be the focal point of the offense with Bledsoe out or co-exist with the latter in the lineup. Against the Lakers he makes a solid play, especially is Jeremy Lin is guarding him. Much of the Suns’ roster remains the same (Frye gone, IT2 in) and it appears they’ll continue to play a fast-paced, running style. They ranked 8th in the league in PACE last season, with Dragic dictating much of that. Donald Sloan - FD 3500 DK 3000 Welcome to the wonderful world of NBA DFS. Where guys like Donald Sloan get more than four sentences written about them. Yesterday it was announced that George Hill would be out for the first few weeks. Backup...

Point Guard Jeremy Lin - FD 5500 DK 6400 Steve Nash is out for the season. Bad news: sucks we won’t get one more year of Nash which would have been intriguing even at 70% of his former self. Good news: We know about it early and can adjust our DFS expectations accordingly. Jeremy Lin stands to benefit the most here as it looks like he’ll take over starting point guard duties rolling into opening night. Ronnie Price should see a bump as well and makes an interesting other-other guy punt play. But for Lin’s price, playing big minutes even on a crappy team, should make him a solid start on a short slate. Will probably be the lowest we see his salary for quite some time. Elfrid Payton - FD 5600 DK 5200 An important (necessary) concept to understand in DFS is opportunity. Because you aren’t able to start every great player under the salary constraints, we want to find underpriced players who stand to see a ton of opportunity. Payton is one of those guys. The rookie looks to be the starting point guard for the Magic. This, in itself, is almost enough to pay off his opening night prices. He isn’t the best PG on the docket, and there will for sure be some growing pains. But if he is locking up close to 30 minutes a night as the primary ball handler, coming in the middle to lower tier in terms of price, then I think you can start him safely and spend money elsewhere. Consider Jrue Holliday Shooting Guard James Harden - FD 9900 DK 10200 If you are looking to spend big money tonight, this is your guy. There’s a case for running it with Davis below, but honestly the injury stuff has me a little concerned and if you are going to use a huge chunk of your cap space on a guy with a hint of injury issue entering the season, then I’d just assume head for safer waters in Harden. The Lakers are shaping up to be their own version of awful again. We loved playing guys against...
