Thoughts:

Updates to come to this section as we approach lock so continue to check back for more insight.

• Pretty solid slate and a ton of unexciting games compared to yesterday’s fiesta. I’m going to keep it short and sweet here. I’ll be having a lot of Indiana Pacers today as they present the most value in the most elite matchup. Guys like Aaron and Justin Holiday will be picking up significant time if Brogdon sits, as Oladipo is already out for rest. TJ Warren is locked in all formats and I hope to get Myles Turner low owned. The other route I’ll be looking to pair with the Pacers is the MEM/NO game. Memphis is on the second end of a back to back and the back to backs have pros and cons now- the pros are that they don’t have to travel anywhere and spend late nights arriving at the hotel. The cons are that the conditioning is not up to par with what it was earlier in the season. That being said, I like Morant, Brooks, JJJ, Clarke on Memphis’s side, and Ingram, Ball and Holiday for the Pelicans side.
• Below are the players I would consider in your “pool” tonight when building 3-20 lineups.  This is 100% the approach everyone reading this article should be taking tonight.  There are plenty of 3-max, 5-max, 20-max contests to enter
• The players I’m using in my “pool” tonight (outside of locking A. Holiday, T. Warren,)
  • • Myles Turner
    • Justin Holiday
    • B. Simmons
    • T. Brown Jr.
    • L. James
    • M. Morris
    • Derrick White
    • N. Jokic
    • B. Clarke
    • J. Morant
    • J. Jackson Jr.
    • B. Ingram
    • L. Ball
    • Jrue Holiday
    • J. Butler
    • I. Smith
  • We’re still waiting on a few pieces of information, so keep your eyes peeled.
  • Remember to try to add as much correlation to your lineups as possible.  More games go to OT than you think in the NBA and mini-game stacks are an underutilized strategy in NBA DFS tournaments.  (Again, you can use the table above to identify the game-stacks I’ll be on).
  • My top game stack of the night will be IND/WAS.
