Solid outing yesterday! Ben Simmons and Dwight Howard… Man, that was frustrating. Draftkings increased the prices on these Clippers players, so there goes that value. However, there are still some decent plays on that side
Cash Core (priority):
Marcus Morris - Clippers are thin today. All Clippers starters are in play today as well as Lou Williams and Zubac off the bench.
Demarcus Cousins - No Christian Wood, you know what to do
John Wall - We’ll have to monitor this. If John Wall isn’t going to be limited, then I like him here. Revenge game narrative as well!
GPP Interests (high risk/high reward):
Trae Young
Bradley Beal
Anthony Gill
Rudy Gobert
Donovan Mitchell

Let’s get after it today
Cash Core (priority):
Dwight Howard - With Joel Embiid, look for Dwight to pick up the start here. Ben Simmons and Tobias Harris should get a usage boost as well
Malik Beasley - With D’Lo out, Beasley should see a decent usage boost.
Goran Dragic - We still haven’t seen his breakout game yet, but he’s in play when Tyler Herro and Butler are out. Kendrick Nunn is a good option as well
Damian Lillard - With the Blazers struggling with injuries, it’s Dame time
Giannis seems to disappoint us in big games. Shot wayyyy too many 3’s, fouled out, and had 9 turnovers... Hopefully you guys played light. Juicy 11-game slate today with lots of key players out. Let’s get after it!
Cash Core (priority):
Demarcus Cousins - I’m telling you right now, he’s high-owned today. No Christian Wood, so this is just a plug and play
Fred Vanvleet - No Kyle Lowry. Vanvleet looks great as well as Norman Powell for value
Trae Young - Going up against THE WORST defensive team in the NBA. Love Trae, love Capela, could be some value too if Reddish and Hunter miss
Julius Randle - Again, going up against one of the worst defensive teams in the NBA. Randle and RJ Barrett look good here
Solid core once again! Embiid smashed at low ownership and everyone else got their value.
Weak slate today, so play light. Tomorrow is where the real money is made with 13 games! But let’s focus on today and kill it, regardless
Cash Core (priority):
Giannis Antetokounmpo - He played 40 minutes last game in a competitive game, so I expect nothing less here
Anthony Davis - Both Lebron and AD finally played big minutes last game. It’s going to be tough getting all these studs in your lineup with little value, but the upside is definitely there
Cash core was successful again! 9-game slate today. I'm excited to see the big 3 in Brooklyn today, but all way too expensive on DK. Can we talk about how Kevin Huerter is 9.5k on Draftkings?! I’m not trolling you, go check it out
Cash Core (priority):
Joel Embiid - This is a pretty cheap price to get Embiid. He burned a lot of people last time, so I expect him to bounce back big here
Malcolm Brogdon - With Caris Levert still out, it’s gonna be the Brogdon and Sabonis show
Goran Dragic - If Tyler Herro is out, I like Dragic a lot here. Should get the start and is a very high usage guy. Bam would also look intruiging
Nikola Vucevic - A solid play in a good matchup with no KAT on the other end. I like both, Vucevic and Aarom Gordon today
This means you have an extra spot on your bench to bring in a new player off the waiver wire anytime you need to fill a spot on your roster. We're going to give some daily options for those of you that do this. Likely lower owned players who are on waivers
Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Streams of the Day:
Jalen Brunson (2% owned)
Kendrick Nunn (19% owned) if Tyler Herro is out
Cameron Johnson (14% owned)
Doug Mcdermott (10% owned)
These are "short-term" adds and will likely head back onto waivers
