![]() We love that because Wiggins ranks third on the team with a 24 percent usage rate when Curry is off the floor. The former top pick was averaging 35 DK points per game across his first 22 outings before getting injured, doing that damage with Curry healthy. That should guarantee Wiggins 35 minutes and 15-20 shots a game, and this guy can be a stud in that sort of role. Wig has been all over the map in terms of consistency, but we have to assume he has a higher floor with Curry out for the next few weeks. San Antonio is also surrendering the most fantasy points to opposing forwards, and Barnes should flirt with a triple-double in this magical matchup, as long as the game stays relatively close. We also love that he's playing nearly 40 minutes a night, which should bode well against the worst defense in the NBA. That's absurd with how he looked through the opening months, but the absence of OG Anunoby has added a ton to his game. The Rookie of the Year winner has scored at least 26 DraftKings points in 23 consecutive games, averaging 42 DK points per game in that span. Small Forwardīarnes has regressed a bit in his sophomore season, but he's still one of the best all-around small forwards in the NBA. His stat-stuffing gives him a nice floor, and we saw that when he had 12 points, 11 rebounds, and seven assists across 41 minutes in his last matchup with this woeful Warriors defense.ĭonovan Mitchell (FD $8300 DK $8500) has been struggling a bit, but his 43-point average should be his floor against this 29th-ranked Detroit defense. That's led to Hart scoring at least 26 DK points in four of his last five games, dropping 34 or more in three of those. He's actually one of the best rebounding guards in the NBA and is pulling down nearly 10 boards a night when Nurk is out. ![]() It's strange that a center's absence would help a guard, but it's boosted Hart's rebounding by a ton. Hart has been up and down all season, but the Nurkic injury has made him a fantastic fantasy option. In their one matchup, Poole provided 55 fantasy points in one of the best games of his career. ![]() That bump makes him impossible to fade in this matchup, with Portland ranked 26th in defensive efficiency ratings. He's also averaging 40 fantasy points per game with this opportunity, seeing a massive boost in minutes, shot attempts, assists, and usage. With Chef Curry off the floor, Poole leads the team with a 36 percent usage rate. He's not just a starter right now, Poole is the starting point guard for Stephen Curry. Poole has been one of the most volatile players in a bench role this season, but he's been sensational as a starter. ![]() They're also surrendering the third-most fantasy points to opposing PGs, and FVV averaged 47 DK points per game against them last year.ĭe'Aaron Fox ( FD $8900 DK $9000) is averaging over 40 fantasy points per game and should go nuts against a Houston team allowing the most fantasy points to opposing PGs. Calling them subpar is unfair to everyone else because San Antonio sits dead last in both points allowed and defensive efficiency. That's the stat-stuffing we've been waiting to see, and he should slice right through this subpar Spurs defense. The former All-Star has scored at least 41 DraftKings points in 10 of his last 11 games, averaging 26 points, 5.2 rebounds, 7.5 assists, and 1.7 steals per game in that span. VanVleet got off to a rough start this year, but this guy is cruising right now. Lillard's childhood team is Golden State, averaging 28.9 points and 6.1 assists in their 32 career matchups. They're also allowing the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing PGs, and Dame has always destroyed them throughout his career. He's being asked to do everything for this offense with Jusuf Nurkic out, and that's terrible news for this 27th-ranked Warriors defense. He's amid one of those right now, averaging 37.6 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 7.4 assists across his last 14 games. Point Guardĭame gets in these stretches where he can make 30-foot stepback fadeaways and make them look like lay-ups. First time with NBA or NFL?
