CORE
DeAnrde Hunter– not much to say here other than the fact he is 3K on DraftKings. He should play 30 minutes and could see more if Danilo Gallinari sits out. 30 FPs upside.

- Dejounte Murray-is a beast this year and has playing at such a high level as of late with White out. Taking 23,26,19,22 shots in the last 4 games. Triple double upside just about every night and he dropped 73 FPs against the Clippers last time out.
- DeMar DeRozan– picks up the most usage with LaVine out-37%. Lonzo Ball is listed as questionable and if he sits out them DeRozan’s usage hits 40%.
- Anfernee Simons– should be back tonight and steps back in as the Blazers main option.
- Darius Garland – back-to-back 50 plus games and gets an elite matchup tonight.
**Joel Embiid is listed as questionable and if he sits out then Andre Drummond is viable along with Tyrese Maxey and Tobias Harris.
OTHER OPTIONS
- Julius Randle- price is coming down. Excellent matchup tonight in a pace up spot.
- Keldon Johnson
- Kyle Kuzma
- Jusif Nurkic
- Spencer Dinwiddie
- Alec Burks

VALUE
- Serge Ibaka
- Montrezl Harrell
- Dwight Powell
- Matt Thomas/Colby White-no Ball or LaVine
- Herbert Jones
- Day’Ron Sharpe– no Claxton tonight- should start.
- Payton Pritchard
- Cedi Osman
Dimes Play
Troy Brown Jr- started last night and played 27 minutes. Did not do much, but will have a larger roll with both LaVine and Ball out tonight. Only 3k on DK and has shown 10K upside this year posting 35 FP earlier this week.
