Welcome to another edition of Bales’ Top GPP play. In this article, I will outline my favorite NBA GPP play for today’s games. If you want all of my core plays along with our staff’s Final Thoughts articles and access to our Discord, click here.
Bojan Bogdanovic
Bogdanovic’s seen plenty of ups and downs throughout the season. He’s averaging 15.2 points, 3.8 rebounds, and 2.0 assists (24.5 fantasy points) in 30.3 minutes per game through 34 contests. Bogdanovic struggled over the last 10 days, averaging 22.9 fantasy points in 28.5 minutes per game. With that being said, he’s flashed 40 fantasy points upside throughout the season, as well.
Bogdanovic gets an interesting matchup against the New Orleans Pelicans tonight. They rank 19th in the NBA in pace and 29th in defensive efficiency this season. New Orleans has also struggled against small forwards throughout the season. Bogdanovic is averaging 26 fantasy points in 29 minutes per game against the Pelicans this season. He’s been a significantly more efficient scorer on the road this season, though, and will benefit from the rematch tonight. Bogdanovic’s usage rating is expected to sit in the high-teens or low-20s once again tonight. He’s also expected to see a few extra minutes in this game, returning to roughly 30. Bogdanovic’s recent struggles will keep his ownership low on this slate, but he’s a cheap option that boasts more than enough upside to be used in tournaments tonight.
