Must-Haves

1/31 Must-Haves

Kyle Lowry ($8,700)– News has just been released that DeRozan will miss the next two games, that being said, Lowry is our first Must-Have on this nice looking 6 game slate. From what Lowry looked like in 2 weeks ago, to what he looks like now, it seems to me he has found his offensive game by having 3 straight games above 44 fanduel points! With DeRozan being out, Kyle Lowry’s usage rate goes sky high. I expect this game to stay in reach until maybe the final couple of minutes so Lowry should hit value with ease. Not much else to say here!

1/30 NBA Thoughts:

Point Guards

Isiah Thomas ($10,000) will be facing the Detroit Pistons tonight on national TV. In their last 3 games, Detroit has given up 103 or more points and have had big problems containing opposing guards. Expect Isaiah to continue his dominance tonight.

In yesterday’s game against the Thunder, Kevin Love suffered yet another injury and will rest against Dallas tonight. This heavily increases the value and production of Kyrie Irving ($8,600), who will most likely be the chalky PG1 in tonight’s slate. Keep in mind Dallas is missing its first and second string point guards, so Kyrie should have no problem surpassing his worth.

Now let’s rewind things for a second. I did just mention JJ Barea and Deron Williams will be out for tonight’s game. This means Yogi Ferell will be eat up a ton of minutes starting at the point for Dallas tonight. Last game he played 36 minutes and finished with 25.9 FDP. He will look to continue where he left off from last night as he makes for a fantastic value play for only $3,500.

The White Hot Miami Heat look to extend their winning streak to 8 games tonight as they face off against the worst team in the league, The Brooklyn Nets. Goran Dragic ($7,600) has been doing a great job facilitating the Miami offense and he has tallied up three 40+ games out of his last 5 games. I don’t see the Nets stopping Dragic from having another eye popping game at home so he is definitely worth a sage target for me in tonight’s slate.

A solid leverage pick for tonight’s slate will be Reggie Jackson ($6,600). The Pistons Celtics game is projected to be very high scoring, fast paced game. Jackson will be a safe pick especially for cash games. Continue reading “1/30 NBA Thoughts:” →

Must-Haves

1/30 Must Haves

Mike Conley ($7,500)– My first have in tonight’s slate is Mike Conley. Ok, ok, I know, Conley had just been an “OK” player as of late. He hasn’t reached the 40 Fanduel Mark in 6 straight games, but tonight I absolutely LOVE the matchup against the Suns who are VERY weak against opposing point guards and pretty much all positions. Even though Mike Conley is our fist Must Have of the night, I expect people to over-look him tonight because of his previous few game games on his game log. Mike Conley WILL reach the 40 point Fanduel mark tonight, mark my words.

Must-Haves

1/27 Must Haves

Mark Gasol– Our first must have of the day is Mark Gasol, Gasol is on a bit of a rant right now hitting at least 40 fanduel points in 5 straight. I always like to pick on Plumlee on the defensive end. Last time these two teams faced, Gasol torched the Blazers center for 47.8 fanduel points. I don’t see anything changing in this one. Gasol has such a great cash game floor that he is considered a great must have.
