Wednesdays are becoming our favorite day of the week! Hope we could help anybody who checked out yesterday’s article! Let’s keep the hot streak going tonight for March 2nd’s 11 game slate!
We’ve got 11 games to look at tonight! Tonight’s slate is loaded with tons of value, let’s check it out!
Point Guards
D’Angelo Russell $5,800 @ DEN
We mentioned Russell in yesterday’s article, but even we couldn’t have foreseen him scoring a career-high 39 points and knocking down 8 three-pointers! There is no doubt that D’Angelo will be the highest owned player in all formats tonight. Russell has an excellent match-up tonight against the turnover-prone Mudiay and the Nuggets give up the 6th most fantasy points to opposing point guards. Russell’s usage has been off the charts over the last few weeks, don’t see any reason it doesn’t continue tonight in Denver.
Sneaky GPP Play- Jerryd Bayless
Shooting Guards
Zach LaVine $5,500 vs. WAS
LaVine is now starting for the T-Wolves and it’s long overdue, Tayshaun Prince was the starter for way too long in Minnesota. Surprisingly, LaVine has been playing the 3 for the Wolves, as Wiggins and Rubio have been matching up with opposing teams’ backcourts. Washington has struggled all year defending small forwards, it’s now a given in the world of daily fantasy to target small forwards taking on the Wizards. The last time we mentioned LaVine( on 1/27) he went for scored a career-high 35 points against OKC, he should see good minutes again tonight against the Wiz.

Will Barton $6,000 vs. LAL
With Gallinari out for about a month or so and Faried listed as questionable tonight, there are plenty of shot opportunities to go around for the Nuggets tonight. The other night against the Mavericks, Barton took a head-turning 24 shot attempts off the bench! Barton has had an excellent season for Denver this year and has a great match-up tonight against the Lakers who just played last night.
Sneaky GPP Play- Eric Gordon
Small Forward
Giannis Antetokounmpo $7,900 vs. IND
The 14 teams who passed on the Giannis in the 2013 draft can do nothing but just shake their heads at this point. The Bucks did their homework and got an absolute steal by nabbing the Greek Freak with the 15th overall pick. Giannis has two triple-doubles in the last week and yet his price has yet to surpass $8,000 on DraftKings. He’s got a tough match-up tonight facing Paul George, but his price is just too juicy to pass up on DraftKings, if you’re playing on FanDuel tonight, we actually suggest fading him at $8,400.
Kawhi Leonard $7,700 @ DET
Anybody who says daily fantasy isn’t gambling has never taken a player from Popovich’s team before. If not for Steph Curry’s unbelievable season, Kawhi Leonard would probably be the front runner for MVP right now. Kawhi stuffs the stat sheet every single night with a plethora of steals, blocks, and rebounds. He is coming back from injury, but like Giannis, his price is just too cheap to pass up on DraftKings. Since coming back from injury he has yet to dip below 40 fantasy points in any of his last 3 games.
Sneaky GPP Play- Shabazz Muhammed
Power Forwards
Ryan Anderson $6,100 @ HOU
Still no word yet on if Anthony Davis is out tonight, but if he is there are absolutely zero reasons to fade Ryan Anderson against the Rockets defense that just allowed 51 fantasy points to Jabari Parker two nights ago. Houston really struggles defensively at all positions, but especially power forward. If Anthony Davis is cleared to play tonight, gotta like his price of just $10,100. Check @FantasyLabsNBA on twitter for injury updates so you can make adjustments to your lineup.
Sneaky GPP Play- Bobby Portis
Centers
Frank Kaminsky $3,600 @ PHI
Kaminsky and Okafor met up in the last game of both of their college careers and despite Wisconsin losing, Kaminsky actually dominated Okafor in the paint and was able to knock down a lot of shots from deep in the NCAA championship. Kaminsky is starting now for the Hornets and playing very well as of late, I think he plays with a little extra incentive tonight against Okafor who knocked him out of the tournament last year.
Sneaky GPP Play- Al Jefferson
