John Wall vs SA ($9,400) - The Wizards will need a big game from Wall if they want to be the Spurs tonight. The good thing is the Spurs allow over 40 fantasy points a game to opposing point guards.
Paul George vs BOS ($8,300) - The Celtics give up the most fantasy points in the league to small forwards, so look for George to fill up the stat sheet tonight.
Greg Monroe vs PHI ($8,200) - Monroe will give the Sixers problems all night long.
Mid Cap Players ($5,000 - $8,000)

Kawhi Leonard vs WAS ($7,900) - Kawhi is off to a solid start this season with two games over 40 fantasy points and the other two just over 30 . Tonight he will face a team that allows a little over 40 fantasy points a game to small forwards and I expect him to hit that mark.
Giannis Antetokounmpo vs PHI ($6,800) - I’m going to keep playing Giannis until they raise his price, because currently he is averaging 37 fantasy points a game. And tonight he gets the Sixers, expect a few highlight plays for sure.
Thaddeus Young vs ATL ($5,500) - Young started the season a little slow, but bounced back in his last two games with 28 fantasy points in each. I expect that to continue tonight against the Hawks, who allow over 40 fantasy points a game to power forwards.
Small Cap Players ($5,000 and Under)
Dennis Schroder vs BKN ($4,500) - Schroder is always a little bit of a risk being a backup, but he does have the potential to put up a 30 fantasy point game.
Corey Brewer vs ORL ($4,100) - Brewer is averaging 20 fantasy points a game and no reason that should change tonight.
Nik Stauskas vs MIL ($3,800) - At $3,800 I might just take the risk. Stauskas put up 17+ fantasy points in his last two games and could continue to see more minute. Play him at your own risk.
