What’s up guys! Today I’ll have a different type of article to quickly relay my thoughts of this slate to you guys. I’ve been at the Penn State vs. Wisconsin game so didn’t have a ton of time to get a full article out.
Overall Thoughts
Zach LaVine sticks out to me as the best play on the slate if you’re paying up so you will definitely want to lock him into your lineups at 8.1k where he is playing major minutes in the high thirties nightly and has the highest projected usage rate on this slate (even higher than Harden/Davis). At 8.1k he’s close to a lock for me. PG/SG has a ton of great options between LaVine/Harden/Booker so that is where I will be paying up for rather than going the Anthony Davis route. With the trade in Philly, Jonah Bolden is projected to see over 25 minutes tonight at literally minimum price on Draftkings. He’s the lock of the slate so don’t miss that. Between all that info to start your 3-4 roster “core” use my top plays at each position below to fill out the rest of your GPP lineups.
