DFS NBA DraftKings Lineup Advice 2/5/19
As I sit here writing this on Monday Night, I have just witnessed Andre Drummond demolish the Denver Nuggets (so much for my Neva Play), and am suffering through a John Collins injury that very well might keep me out of the money this evening. DFS is more of an art than a science and these things happen, often… Now the picks..

Top Plays
Joel Embiid (Philadelphia) $10,500 vs. Toronto
Toronto is a great team defensively and Pascal Siakam and Serge Ibaka can be tough on Centers. None of that matters, The Process should be up for this game and even though he has only put up 45.7 fantasy points a game against the Raptors this year, I have a strong feeling about this spot. If you want to spend up, the Process is a great way to do so.
Others to consider:
Russell Westbrook $11,400 vs. Orlando, Kemba Walker $8,700 vs. L.A. Clippers, Blake Griffin $8,700 @ New York

Kyrie Irving is out for the Celtics against the atrocious Cleveland Cavaliers. That can only mean one thing, it’s Terry Rozier time (sung to the tune of Peanut Butter Jelly Time). When he plays big minute, see games against Charlotte and Brooklyn, Rozier put up 46.75 and 37.75 fantasy points respectively. Rozier is in a great spot to have a big game here.
Others to consider
Dennis Smith Jr. $5,700 vs. Detroit, Reggie Jackson $5,500 @ New York, Terrance Ross $5,000 @ Oklahoma City
Neva Plays
Kawhi Leonard (Toronto) $9,300 @ Philadelphia
Kawhi is not the worst play in the world here, but I do not like him at this price or against the defense of Jimmy Butler. I know he has put 58.5 in 2 games against the 76ers this season, but with Jimmy Butler present and a motivated 76ers squad this is not the best spot for Kawhi. I am not expecting a terrible game, but I prefer Paul George against the Magic for $10,200. I don’t think the discount for Kawhi is quite worth it here.
