Eric Bledsoe vs The Clippers
The Bucks go into L.A. to face The Clippers and The Clippers have already stated that Kawhi Leonard will rest on the first leg of a back to back
, Furthermore The Clippers give up the most points in the league to the PG position. Definitely more of a GPP play due to the lower end of minutes being played. Bledsoe has played a high of 28 minutes over his last five games. On Draftkings at $6300 Bledsoe is a solid option for tournaments.
Glen Robinson 3 vs Houston
Both teams should be a regular go for normal rotation minutes as neither team is on a back to back. Houston is currently the fastest team in The NBA in pace and while injury factors have caused The Warriors to play a bit slower, this game should still see plenty of possessions. Golden State is trying to establish an identity without Steph Curry, Draymond Green or for the later part Klay Thompson. Deangelo Russell also missing the last contest Golden State needs some guys to step up here. Eric Paschall stepped up in the last game so people will draw to him, however Houston currently gives up the most points in the league to the SF position.
Thomas Bryant vs Indiana
Indiana is already giving up the second most points to Centers in the NBA, combine that with the fact that both of our their best players down low have been hampered with injuries and this is the perfect situation for Thomas Bryant to come in and have a great performance here. Indiana is also on the second leg of a back to back, granted it is a home leg but nonetheless, Bryant would also figure to be more of tournament option given the inconsistency in minutes during his recent games.
Kristaps Porzingis vs Orlando
Porzingis is a great play in both tournaments and cash as we have seen a consitent flow of minutes, playing over 30 minutes in each of his last four games. The matchup looks great as well as Orlando has been horrible against Centers and I believe there is no reason why Porzingis doesnt spend most of his time at the five matched up on Vucevic. Orlando is also on the second game of a road back to back, while Dallas is played in an isolated game situation and minutes should be consistent. Feel good about spending just $7700 for a player like Porzingis on Draftkings today.
Andrew Wiggins vs Memphis
Minutes have been great and the usage was up the last couple of games without KAT in the lineup. Of course that will take a natural hit here. I think Wiggins should be just fine in this spot though. Some of this does hinge on the status of Jeff Teague, if Teague does not play its anyone's guess what Minnesota ends up doing, there are rumors of them possibly calling up someone from the G league or having a someone like Josh Okogie play out of position at the 1. Regardless, if Teague does not play I think most of that usage goes to Wiggins, so depending on that news would hinge his cash game potential for me. With or without the news he is a great play in tournaments at just $6600.
