Happy Friday everyone! Hope you guys got a chance to check out our last article on Wednesday, January 20th!
Winning Lineup: Westbrook, D. Williams, W. Matthews, Harden, Harris, Muhammed, Gibson, Kaminsky, Cousins
Wednesday’s lineup had Parsons, Cousins, and Rondo who combined for 154.75 points alone! 9 games to look at tonight, let’s see what we’re up against tonight!(Credit Tykes.co for images)
Point Guards
Chris Paul- $9,800 @ NY
With Griffin out, Chris Paul is in complete control of the Clippers offense, they would be a mess without CP3 running the show. Paul is averaging 51.7 DK points/game over his last 4 games, and he’s is the biggest reason the Clippers are
9-1 in their last 10 games before last night’s loss. Paul is on triple-double watch every night, and the match up t0night against Jose Calderon is just too tempting.
Russell Westbrook- $10,600 @ DAL
Honestly, just start your lineup off with Westbrook and Paul for an easy 105-110 points, then fill in elsewhere(easily possible on FanDuel). There are a lot of cheap options and a lot of value on the slate tonight. Westbrook has been too good, and too consistent to not have another 50+ FPP night tonight against the Mavericks.
“The Sleeper Pick”- Shane Larkin

Shooting Guards
DeMar DeRozan- $8,000 @ MIAÂ
The shooting guard position has been so depleted this year, so much so that FanDuel got complaints about Khris Middleton being a small forward, so they moved him to shooting guard! DeMar DeRozan has been the best player on the 2nd best team in the eastern conference, putting up 23, 4, and 5 every single night(Got snubbed a starting spot on the all-star team to D-Wade) DeRozan is averaging 43.6 DK points/game over his last 3 contests and Miami is missing 7 guys tonight, so Toronto should have a field day tonight led by DeRozan and Lowry.
“The Sleeper Pick”- Josh Richardson
Small Forwards
Justise Winslow- $4,000 vs. TOR
With 7  players out tonight for Miami, Erik Spoelstra may even have to sub in on a few plays tonight against the Raptors. With all the injuries, Miami is left with Bosh, Winslow, Tyler Johnson, and Amaré Stoudemire for offense. Winslow may play 40 minutes tonight, as Miami will have very few subs to work with on such short notice. Winslow logged 36 minutes against the Wizards last game, and had 26 DK points. Miami has a lot of cheap starters to look at tonight, just gotta pick the right one!
Carmelo Anthony- $8,300 vs. LAC
The Knicks are just 0.5 games back of the Celtics for the 8th playoff spot in the East. The Knicks could use a huge win at home against the Clippers before the All-Star break. Vegas has the Clippers favored by just 2 points tonight, so the starters for both teams should see a ton of minutes. Carmelo has an excellent match up against a 38- year old Paul Pierce who just had a late game last night against Cleveland. Carmelo has been rebounding and passing the ball this year at an excellent rate, look for more of the same tonight in a big game at the Garden.
Power Forwards
Chris Bosh- $7,600 vs. TOR(Revenge Game Alert)
Prediction of the night: Bosh has the highest usage rate of any player tonight. With all the injuries in Miami tonight, Bosh is the only viable offensive option for the Heat tonight against his former team. Bosh should have the majority of the touches tonight as the rest of the starting lineup consists of Tyler Johnson, Winslow, Stoudemire, and Richardson. The Raptors have a solid team overall, but the power forward position is their slimmest, so look for Bosh to have a ton of opportunities to score tonight against the Raptors.
“The Sleeper Pick”- Clint Capela
Centers
Myles Turner- $3,900 @ GS
Turner has been excellent filling in for Mahimi and Allen due to injury. Turner is only 19 years old, but still able to make an immediate impact for the Pacers after being taken 11th in last summer’s draft. Turner broke out for 25 points, 7 rebounds, and 2 blocks in just 29 minutes against the Nuggets. Vegas has the O/U tonight on the IND-GS at 216 combined points, which is the highest on the slate. If this game goes into garbage time, Turner should have a lot of opportunities to score in a fast paced game.
“The Sleeper Pick”- Frank Kaminsky
