Things to Remember
-Always check for injuries prior to tip-off.
-Daily FanDuel plays are up Monday through Friday.
-No picks on nights of only four games or less.
-Stats are based off Fanduel rules
Big Cap Players ($8,000 and Up)
Blake Griffin vs POR ($8,500) - The Blazers are coming off a back-to-back and already struggle with power forwards. Plus, Blake already had a big game against the Blazers this season (52 fantasy points).
Paul George vs PHI ($8,200) - George called out his team after a big loss to the Hornets, so I expect him to come to play tonight. He’s the leader/star on this team and needs a big performance to get this ship in the right direction. It also helps that the Sixers aren’t great against small forwards and will be missing their best rim-protectors in Nerlens Noel and Joel Embiid.
Mid Cap Players ($5,000 to $8,000)
Avery Bradley vs WAS ($6,900) - Bradley is off to an excellent start and faces a team that struggles against two-guards, why not play him.
Derrick Rose vs BKN ($6,300) - The Nets are banged up at point guard and will start rookie Isaiah Whitehead once again, giving Rose the obvious upper hand. Not to mention, the Nets are allowing 46 fantasy points a night to point guards.
Marcin Gortat vs BOS ($6,000) - Gortat always flies under the radar, but the guy is solid. He has had 27+ fantasy points in five straight games. As well, Al Horford is still sidelined for the C’s.
Small Cap Players ($5,000 and Under)
Sean Kilpatrick vs NYK ($4,900) - I know Kilpatrick wasn’t great last night, but he still has nice value considering the amount of touches he gets. As well, the Knicks allow the most fantasy points in the league to shooting guards. And with the Knicks bench situation, Kilpatrick should have the advantage.
