What’s up guys! We have just a small three game slate on tap tonight, so I will be using my Tuesday format and just highlighting my top plays at each position. Let’s get to it!
Point Guard
For a three game slate, point guard is surprisingly decent with good options in every price tier. Kyle Lowry headlines the top of the position, and I would make him a priority over Kawhi Leonard tonight, personally.
My Pool (In order of preference)
1. Kyle Lowry
2. De’Aaron Fox (GPP)
3. Quinn Cook
4. Cory Joseph (value)
5. Shai Gilgeous-Alexander
Shooting Guard
With no James Harden present, and LeBron/KD looming at small forward, this profiles as a mid-low tier position for me on Thursday night.
My Pool
1. Buddy Hield
2. Klay Thompson
3. Lou Williams
4. Bogdan Bogdanovic
5. Andre Iguodala (value)
Small Forward
We have a three-headed monster at small forward tonight with LeBron, KD and Kawhi all viable options. Given the matchup with Durant defensively, I will lean more towards LeBron and Durant. I think you can definitely play them together on FanDuel, but I would like to fit in someone like Lowry so that may not be the exact route I go tonight.
My Pool
1. LeBron James
2. Kevin Durant
3. Bojan Bogdanovic
4. Brandon Ingram
5. Kawhi Leonard (GPP)
Power Forward
Power forward is a wasteland on Thursday night, with my man Montrezl Harrell being the top priced option. Given that, this is definitely a spend-down spot for me tonight outside of some GPP darts.
My Pool
1. Serge Ibaka
2. Marvin Bagley
3. Montrezl Harrell (GPP)
4. Tobias Harris (GPP)
5. Pascal Siakam
Center
We also don’t have our usually loaded center position tonight, and the question comes down to Boban or not to Boban. I have some concerns given that it is a back-to-back, but at his price he is definitely in play if Marcin Gortat is out once again.
My Pool
1. Willie Cauley-Stein
2. Boban Marjanovic (IF Gortat out)
3. Kevon Looney (Boban punt pivot)
4. Myles Turner
5. Javale McGee
