Guards
Top Play | Russell Westbrook ($11,100)
Russell Westbrook is the top play on the slate for me assuming that Bradley Beal sits again with his on going hip issue. This play is very dependent on whether or not Beal plays. Russell Westbrook has been a walking triple-double with Beal off the floor. The Magic rank 29th in the league against Point Guards.
Mid-tier | Caris Lavert ($7,100)
The Indiana Pacers always play my Timberwolves very tough, with the possibility of both Malcolm Brogdan and Domantas Sabonis sitting due to injury, there is a ton of usage to go around for Caris Lavert, if they both sit.
Value | Jeremy Lamb ($3,400)
Like I state above, another player that will get a minutes and usage bump if both Brogdan and Sabonis sit is Jeremy Lamb. Lamb offers us a fantastic value at just $3,400. Keep an eye on The Pacers lineup throughout the day.
Fade | Terry Rozier ($8,400)
Since Lamelo Ball went down Terry Rozier hasn’t really done all that well. Devonte’ Graham and Terry Rozier as a combo back court hasn’t worked out too well for fantasy purposes.
Others I Like
Luka Doncic ($10,900)

Kyrie Irving ($10,200)
Forwards
Top Play | Domantas Sabonis ($8,900)
If Sabonis plays and doesn’t have a minutes restriction I think he is super under priced. This one is a big if I can’t state enough to keep and eye on The Pacers lineup, they always give The Timberwolves fits.
Mid-tier | Jaylen Brown ($7,800)
Kemba Walker has already been ruled out and Jaylen Brown is under 8k, sign me up for that every time and twice on Sundays.
Value | Nicolo Melli ($4,000)
A lot to keep an eye on today, this entire slate will come down to the injury news and hopefully we get it before lock. Melli has been playing 30+ minutes when Kristaps Porzingis sits.
Fade | Kevin Durant ($9,200)
Kevin Durant looks very appealing at $9,200 don’t get me wrong but he hasn’t played in over a month and will likely have a minutes restriction.
Others I Like
Julius Randle ($9,900)
Chuma Okeke ($5,800)
Centers
Top Play | Karl-Anthony Towns ($10,700)
Karl-Anthony Towns has been playing very good basketball lately. I see no reason for that to change tonight against The Pacers. He is putting up Nikola Jokic type stat lines.
Mid-tier | Jonas Valancunias ($7,200)
This one scares be Jo-Val is super under priced in my opinion, but the minutes have been an issue lately. I think Jo-Val has 50 point upside if he gets the run.
Value | Tony Bradley ($4,000)
Tony Bradley has been seeing great run off the bench for The Thunder, who seem to be tanking. Moses Brown got signed to a multiple year deal recently, but is now playing equal minutes with Bradley.
Fade | Nikola Jokic ($10,600)
Since the Aaron Gordon Trade, Nikola Jokic’s numbers have been down. I’d much rather play Towns at essentially the same price.
