Only a 4-game slate tonight so I’m just going to go over my TOP GPP play at each position. You can access my CORE GPP Plays by signing up for an NBA package at dfskarma.com!
AS NBA is a game where last-minute real-life changes are made before tipoff, always monitor breaking news up to last second!
The plays below in this daily article are low owned pivots and GPP plays. This means that these players will be RELATIVELY low owned and ‘contrarian’ relative to the more highly owned, chalky plays of the night.
BALL IN!
Point Guard
Top GPP Play: Spencer Dinwiddie
Dinwiddie has been shooting at a much better rate this season and has been closing out games for the Nets. Dinwiddie is a 6 ‘6 guard who is able to grab rebounds and score at an efficient rate. Priced at only 4.8k on a four-game slate Dinwiddie is one of the best GPP options available.
Shooting Guard
Top GPP Play: Allen Crabbe
Another Nets player that is providing a ton of value on this slate is at 3.5k who is shooting terribly this season but still getting big minutes for the Nets. Crabbe is the highest paid player on the current roster and is going to continue to see minutes. His shooting will come around and the 3-point upside he has provides a massive ceiling considering his price.
Small Forward
Top GPP Play: Khris Middleton
Middleton has seen his price drop a little bit down back to 7k where he is very much in play and provides a solid floor along with a 50 point ceiling if he ever “takes over” a game from Giannis. His usage is consistently about 25% and he sees major minutes for the Bucks. One of the locks I’m ‘paying up’ for.
Power Forward
Top GPP Play: Otto Porter
Another player we’re essentially buying low on is Otto Porter. Porter is a trade candidate after starting off the season horribly after signing a max deal in the offseason. Porter was coming off a great year and I believe people are overreacting to his slow start this season. Great play at 4.9k.
Center
Top GPP Play: Jusuf Nurkic
Bucks have been getting melted inside by big men this season and historically. Nurkic has as much upside than any center on this slate and is always “in-play” for GPP’s as he solely relies on staying in the game for 30+ minutes to hit value. As his stamina increases in the first half of the season, I love Nurkic for a GPP option tonight with over 25% usage this season.
