Thoughts:

Updates to come to this section as we approach lock so continue to check back for more insight.

  • Obviously anyone can be used from these two games. However, I will be starting my lineups with Giannis in all formats. He is the only one on the board besides Harden that can drop a legit 70 tonight. He’s the top tier SF on FD with no one else even remotely close to him. I will be prioritizing him over Harden all day today. When it comes to C, there are no top centers, the most expensive being Brook Lopez. I think I’ll have an even amount of him, Adams and Tucker today to round out the center exposure. PF is full of just trash options, Bam is the only one that can be “cash worthy” alongside Covington and Green. The rest barely play or are unproductive.
  • PG is interesting, I have Dragic locked in at the moment but Bledsoe being Q can definitely be a slate changer. If he is out, Hill becomes elite. I also have a few Middleton shares but I think Schroder/SGA/Butler are going to be my SGs today.
  • I think this slate will be very reliant on the guards. If you nail them, you should be sitting nice tonight. A couple GPP fliers I like tonight that could be low owned are Tyler Herro, Donte Divencenzo (if Bledsoe out), Jae Crowder, Andre Igoudala, Lu Dort.
