Guards
Top Play | James Harden ($10,900)
James Harden again get to take the floor without Kevin Durant and Kyrie Irving. Harden’s usage rate with those two off the floor is through the roof. I may sound like a broken record when it comes to Harden, but he once again is the top pick with the usage spike.
Mid-tier | John Wall ($7,600)
John Wall remains under priced, I think he is the one player with upside of 50+ at a sub 8k price tag. I don’t know if I get to him with The Rockets being fairly healthy for the first time in a very long time, but I think he’s an interesting play.
Value | Tomas Satoransky ($4,600)
Tomas Satoransky is continuing to start over Coby White, and when given minutes he has produced. The Bulls are making their run at the playoffs and much of that has to do with Tomas Satoransky and Thaddeus Young.
Fade | Victor Oladipo ($7,700)
The Rockets are just too healthy for me to play Victor Oladipo. Oladipo doesn’t do enough outside of scoring to really like him at this price tag.

Trae Young ($8,700)

Donovan Mitchell ($8,800)
Forwards
Top Play | Kristaps Porzingis ($8,000)
Another usual suspect for me at the top here in Kristaps Porzingis. Porzingis had 62 DK points vs The Wolves in the last meeting. Luka had 43, take the discount and play Zinger. Porzingis is a great match-up against The Wolves as they don’t have a Power Forward that can run the perimeter with him, unless they give Jaden McDaniels the start.
Mid-tier | John Collins ($7,400)
If John Collins isn’t traded by time lock rolls around I’ll be interested, he remains under priced. The slate is rather big, so we might not have to go here, but if you need a filler I think he’s a solid option.
Value | Danuel House Jr ($4,900)
Danuel House has been playing great basketball as of late, if The Rockets weren’t so healthy I’d love this spot for him the only problem is The Rockets now have a ton of bodies.
Fade | Pascal Siakim $7,300)
Pascal Siakim has a great price tag and I think he’ll carry a lot of ownership with it. The thing with Siakim is The Raptors have everyone back now, and even a pretty deep bench.
Others I Like
Domantas Sabonis ($9,400)
Centers
Top Play | Nikola Jokic ($10,700)
Surprise Surprise Nikola Jokic at the top right? Nikola Jokic is now the leading MVP candidate with the Lebron and Embiid injuries. I’ve said it all year that he is going to win MVP. The Nuggets are playing on a back to back which may scare people away from Jokic, but I don’t see anyone on The Raptors being able to contain this monster. The fact is Jokic is the cheapest of all the top end plays.
Mid-tier | Jonas Valanciunas ($7,700)
Jo-Val is an absolute double-double machine. Jo-Val is averaging 16 points and 12 rebounds per game on the season and gets a favorable match-up vs The Suns.
Value | Deandre Ayton ($5,800)
Deandre Ayton has had a rather disappointing season, however he’s been great as of late and at just $5,800 I’m going to have him everywhere. Last season Ayton was around 9k almost all season. Ayton is super talented and I think he offers 8x-10x upside here at a solid price.
Fade | Christian Wood ($8,100)
The minutes just aren’t there right now. I can’t pay over 8k for a guy struggling to get 26 minutes on a team that is very healthy.
