CLICK HERE FOR A FREE 3 DAY FREE TRIAL POINT GUARD Stephen Curry - FD 11000 DK 10800 Opponent - LAC FD Proj. Pts - 41.89 DK Proj. Pts - 45.25 Our system doesn't love him for these prices actually, though it's probably having some trouble fully accounting for just how inhuman he's been this season. Curry has essentially become the Warriors' point guard and shooting guard this season, taking even more of the offense over in the early going. Steph is Steph and I don't need to extol his virtues anymore than the stats, or the highlights, or the articles or the memes about him already do. He's insane and there isn't anything else to say about it. The question here is whether you can pay for him, and I think that it's close. Michael Carter-Williams - FD 6600 DK 6000 Opponent - CLE FD Proj. Pts - 32.39 DK Proj. Pts - 33.04 Jerryd Bayless - FD 4400 DK 4800 Opponent - CLE FD Proj. Pts - 19.47 DK Proj. Pts - 20.3 They come at different price points but I think you can consider both of them today. MCW has a lot of stink on him after last game for sure, but he is still a fine play all things considered. Bayless plays a lot of minutes for someone in his price range, though I wouldn't call the run necessarily secure. You are going to need a few mid tier or punt-ish plays on this slate and both of these guys fill the need in certain respects....

CLICK HERE FOR A FREE 3 DAY FREE TRIAL POINT GUARD Russell Westbrook - FD 11500 DK 12200 Opponent - NOP FD Proj. Pts - 53.24 DK Proj. Pts - 55.01 I must admit, his price is starting to reach a level that is beginning to make me a little hesitant to roster him. But as long as Kevin Durant remains sidelined, Westbrook will always be my pick to produce the highest score, and tonight is no different. He's been on an absolute tear this year, and his usage has reached a ridiculously high point since KD went down. To add icing on the cake, the Pelicans rank 29th in the league defending the PG position, and play an up-tempo pace like the Thunder. With Davis back the a blow-out is less likely, so I like Westbrook to get his minutes and have a monster game. Note: Davis went down with an injury last night, and if he doesn't play the blow out does become a bit of a concern here. Ish Smith - FD 5400 DK 5500 Opponent - OKC FD Proj. Pts - 25 DK Proj. Pts - 25.75 It's rare that we recommend two players opposing each other, but if you want to pay up for Westbrook and others, you need to find some cheaper guys who are going to get a ton of minutes. Ish Smith is definitely that guy since Jrue Holliday will likely sit the second game of the Pelican's back to back. When Smith get's the minutes, he normally produces at a high...

CLICK HERE FOR A FREE 3 DAY FREE TRIAL POINT GUARD Dennis Schroder - FD 4800 DK 4600 Opponent - BKN FD Proj. Pts - 28.75 DK Proj. Pts - 29.97 He's a must start in cash games tomorrow. Don't know any more clear way to put that. With Teague out, Schroder becomes the de facto point guard and his price is nowhere near where it should be considering the opportunity he'll see for the Hawks tonight. He played 33 minutes against Utah the other night and put up an 11/9/6 line which more than pays these salaries. He won't be sneaking up on anyone here considering Teague is out tonight and there's been plenty of lead time. Put him in cash games without hesitation. Michael Carter-Williams - FD 7000 DK 6000 Opponent - WAS FD Proj. Pts - 33.05 DK Proj. Pts - 33.72 He came back from an extended injury layoff last game and Jason Kidd promptly played him 40 minutes. Expect some similar run tonight against the Wizards. Carter-Williams can't shoot from the the outside, but his length and some quickness helps him contribute in multiple areas on the stat sheet. The Wizards are playing at the fastest pace in the league this season, while the Bucks are the slowest. I love when slower teams get into these kinds of matchups because the volume goes way up. That should be the case for MCW tonight. Mo Williams - FD 6100 DK 6200 Opponent - DET FD Proj. Pts - 28.26 DK Proj. Pts - 30.82 He's really...

POINT GUARD Brandon Knight - FD 6700 DK 7000 Opponent - LAC FD Proj. Pts - 31.04 DK Proj. Pts - 32.91 This is a short slate and the decisions will get real close in a copy of key areas. But on FD, one of the point guard slots at least is easy. Knight is a clear value play at that price. It's a little closer on DraftKings where the difference in price between him and some of the other PGs is more of a decision. But as you'll see in some of the write ups belows, there are three guys dominating all of the shots for Phoenix this season and I think you'll be able to run all three. Knight is second on the team in field goal attempts per game and is second on the team in assists. He has a tough matchup for sure, but this is a great buy in the mid tier which you typically need on a short slate. Stephen Curry - FD 10700 DK 10600 Opponent - MIN FD Proj. Pts - 43.78 DK Proj. Pts - 47.69 Here's your obligatory Steph pick. From a point of honesty, our system likes CP3 a bit more for the price, but I'm a little concerned he just isn't right with injury issues. His last two games he's looked rough and a bit off. Our system will having trouble sussing something like that out, but recognize he is the top pts/$ PG on the board. That being said, Steph feels safer even at a higher price tag. He's of course, the best. The Warriors could crush Minny in this one, but Steph's rotations usually keep him playing at...

POINT GUARD Isaiah Thomas - FD 7300 DK 7200 Opponent - IND FD Proj. Pts - 36.42 DK Proj. Pts - 38.83 As long as Marcus Smart is out of the starting lineup because of injury, Thomas is a fantastic play. Though he struggled last night for sure, he gets up a ton of shots in the offense, pushes the pace and is unselfish enough to hand out the requisite amount of assists in order to keep the floor a little higher. Though Indiana comes in a little on the slower end in terms of Pace, the Celts make up for it in volume as they lead the league in getting up and down the floor. Thomas is one of the few Celtics whose minutes I see as safe if Smart isn't out there. Think he makes a great cash game play in that mid tier value. Ish Smith - FD 5100 DK 4800 Opponent - ATL FD Proj. Pts - 25.2 DK Proj. Pts - 25.91 Jrue Holiday isn't playing back-to-backs right now and unless that news changes in the short term, I think you see him sit tonight after going against the Mavs last night. If that's the case (and I think it will be) look for Ish to get a full load of run from the point. Last time Holiday sat, Ish went 33 minutes and a 7/7/7 line that more than paid these price tags. While the salaries aren't as low as I'd like, I think the minutes will more than get him there if he's in the starting lineup. Keep an eye on the Jeff Teague situation. He may get suspended for an incident on Monday night....
